Hi QL,

My Question is Why Karwa Taxi Meter Charges veriable Fairs 

It Clearly Mention that Fair Start From QR4.00 + QR1.20 Each KM

but Actully it charge High Even Each Taxi had Diffrent Fair,

I have been Hired for 12 km and each time i have been paid Diffrent Amount Yesterday i was Paid QR 25.00 from Safari to Karwa Taxi Stand Total Journey 12.1 km ( Taxi No 1523, Driver No 9319)

Why karwa did not Update there Meters or may be Drivers play Some tricks, even when you asked them that your meter have Error? they Answered go and Check with Management.

dear, dont be a fool, as simple as that. When i see the idiot driver switched on tariff 0 instead of tariff 1, or his meter has any sort of sticker hiding the numbers, or " isnt working", or there is a bottle of water next to it- i say nothing. At the end i ask for the receit- wrong tariff on the receit / no receit/ wrong amount = NO MONEY! its their company policy- read it

So in 9 cases of the 10 im getting around Doha for free))) Of course, if there is no bullshit around, no tricks- i always give that driver a good tip

From what i noticed, they do not take the same routes. i use taxies alot and the prices vary but i start noticing that they donot use same routes.
