Ola Cabs — Excessive charging - chennai

From Chennai Airport.

They charged Rs.693 for a ride on Indica car for 17 km, and a toll charges of Rs.44 (Actual toll is Rs.22). A prepaid taxi (FASTTARCK Call taxi) from airport would have cost me Rs.600/-, or an Aviation Express Innova would have cost me Rs.800/-.
It was a ripper of all sorts.. Avoid OLA if possible..
They charge much more than published rates, by multiplying the fare by a factor. In my case, the factor was 2.5, i.e., pay 250% more than the actual charges (350%) !!!
Be careful while booking as one prompt comes in between to indicate the extra charges.
