[Resolved]  Taxi Driver — Taxi driver overcharging electronice meter is fudged

I boarded taxi no. MH01 AM 5053 from Woli for going to Khar on 5th Jan 2010, on the way I realised the taxi meter has been tempered with. After comletion of the journey the meter was reading Rs 140 after travellng a distance of 8.9 K. Considering the fact Rs 14 charged for 1.5 KM the meter should be around RS 90-95.
The taxi guy is charging more money by tampering the meter and also arguing that the meter is correct as nobody has complaint till date.
I would request authorities to take action against him it is a new maruti taxi with electronic meter

hi!! this is Mrinmayi I work at lower parel in Radio Mirchi office.I stay at CBD belapur & recently been treated for ligament fracture on my left knee.Around 6:30 on 25.08.09 evening i took a taxi from the signal near maharashtra wada pav wala at lower parel, wanting to go to cotton green station.As we crossed the curry road flyover i instructed to take a right but instead of taking a right he went straight as if he didnt hear.After a while he asked me the way to cotton green station(where the construction is of the road os going on) i said if he didnt knew then why didnt he take a right ..he said he knows the way but from passing thru sweree area which was of course a long route.he was very rude he stop the taxi & asked me to get down said he can't go further & asked for money.i refused to get down at first but afterwards i told him i will get down but wont pay as he didnt drop me at the desired destination.i got down took a another taxi but he just stood in front of the taxi refused to let me go.i asked him to come to the police station with me first he agreed but then he refused & starting asking me for the cab money.after much arguement i gave him the money many people gathered also.
I just want to tell u nowadays the taxi drivers act as if they do us a favour.they are arrogent rude bully single women.Its trouble getting a taxi nowadays i dont get a single taxi after 6pm from matulya centre lower parel.they want lamba bhaada.there should be a rule that the taxi driver should be willing to go any where in the certain timings.
I want you to take some action against this taxi driver taxi no is MH01 J 1921 Name Jamirudddin license no.74387.

RTO — overcharging by taxi

Dear Mumbai Traffic Police,
I hired a taxi from McDonald's restaurant at Linking Road, Bandra west, Mumbai to Shivaji Park, Mahim west, Mumbai. Taxi number - MH 01 G 586, at 11.48 pm January 20th, 2010. Before I got into the taxi, I clarified with him that he would not charge me night charge as it wasn't yet midnight. But on reaching my destination, he started arguing with me that since it was past midnight (12.10) on reaching Mahim, he would now charge me night charge. I attempted to argue with him, but he got very aggressive & so I gave up since it seemed dangerous to argue at that point of time. The pre-midnight fare is approximately Rs.50, but I was forced to pay this thug Rs.70.
I request you to take action against the errant driver so that in future, he will not be able to continue cheating and harrassing single women like myself. I would appreciate a feedback on my email id.
Regards,
Shivani SP
