Suppose one hails a cab at 2350. He reaches his destination at 0020 the next day. Will the person be charged midnight far?
midnight starts at 11pm i think.
charges are based on the start of journey.
meter starts running from 12
The fare showed 12+ when i reached my destination. But I was charged 18+(50% for midnight fare). Was I cheated? I thought midnight fare sets in only when one boards the taxi after midnight?
no..if i'm not wrong at 11pm alrady got mn charge but lesser eg 35%
after 12mn its 50%
Midnight surcharge is pro-rated one .
From 11.50pm to 11.59pm , meter charge is normal , $0.20 jump .
But from 12.00am , the midnight surcharge is active .
All the way to 6am .

Agenda , u drive a car , right ?
11pm ? No la .....
So u people know midnight surcharge is pro-rated one now ?
So no need to rush for a cab la , sure will kena one .
Teach u all a trick or two ...
If u guys are inside the CBD area .... 11.50pm don't hail a cab , cos got extra $3 cbd surcharge .
Rather , u wait until 12am , only $1.50 midnite surcharge extra .
Actually quite the same one la ....
