    I shall post this review as a general review, because basically i am not targeting only comfort taxi, but rather all the cab operaters in singapore. What a start to the new year i would say, went to drink at circular road yesterday night after countdown, after that, we thought by walking down to lau pat sat, there will be more cabs, so we walked down, and started waiting, we waited for about 2 whole hours, and not a single cab in sight, all the cabs are either on call or hired, and the best part of the "hired" cabs, there's no one in there. The whole network calling is also total bullshit, pardon me for using such strong words, but i am just trying to reflect the kind of dissapoinment filled with anger at the moment of time. After the taxi fare-hike, we passengers expect a easier time to wait for taxis, there's more cabs around, seems that it isn't this way, shouldn't something be done about those drivers who purposely put their call sign on call, and earn the extra 4bucks, because when we finally called a cab, the cab arrived in less than 1minute, which means its either he so coincidentally was plying the area, or he is "camping" in the area, when we board the cab, i gave no reservations to the driver, and i asked him how come you cab drivers are all on call, and than he was like defending those cab drivers, say don't have, than i was like, its because you drivers want to earn the extra 4dollars right, and he just kept quiet after that, perhaps my tone was abit harsh, plus abit of drunkness in it, but i am still sober enough to rationalise the logic behind this whole thing, work ethnics are vauled everywhere, should there be one for cabs as well.

      that must have been a really uncomfortable ride for you and the taxi driver after that. At least he didn't argue with you.

      I chatted with some taxi drivers and they said it was hard to find customers after the price hike... And I did cut down on taxi taking. So, I think it should be easier to get a taxi now

       Comfort Taxi - Services

    Hey, guys, let's not be so hard on the taxi drivers will you?

    They are just trying to earn their keep. And unlike the good old days, taxi drivers nowadays have to slog like a horse just to pay their rentals and for their diesel.

    It is one job that the employees have to pay their employer just to start working. It is one job that does not provide paid medical leave, CPF and working benefits, as well as, a stable income. It sounds to me like a horrible job given the amount of money taxi drivers are earning now and the attitude they get from irate customers.

    Even though I am not particularly glad about the increased taxi charges, I realized that it is only inevitable. How do you want taxi drivers to live if amongst all of these inflation and increased costs, they do not get to charge higher prices?

    Spare a thought for them. If you want good taxi service, hop in the taxi with a smile, give clear directions and make polite conversation. Never forget to say thank you to the taxi driver once you reach the destination.

    It worked for me every single time.

      I do agree... that uncles are trying to earn a keep. Sometimes cabs stop recklessly and pte cars scold them... but maybe it was the customer who tell them to stop anyhow? It's not an easy job.
