PSA: Maxi Taxi Surcharge

Regarding Maxi Taxi hire in Brisbane, if you hail a maxi from the street or hire it from the rank, the $12 surcharge does not apply. It only applies to bookings of that specific vehicle type. I raise this as the previous 3 times I’ve used a maxi taxi from the rank, they have all tried to charge this fee. 2 of the 3 times resulted in the driver apologising and the surcharge was removed (although it was clear they knew exactly what they were doing trying to charge it). Most recently (today), a driver became abusive and insisted we pay the surcharge, which we obviously did not! I’ll report him to Black and White. I assume they get away with it more often than not, so hoping this can raise some awareness to call out dodgy drivers. submitted by /u/bitterhands [link] [comments]
