Ha Noi sets up hotline for reporting taxi overcharging

webmaster@baomoi.com(Baomoi.com) — Wed, 08 May 2013 15:33:20 +0700

The Hanoitimes - The Ha Noi Taxi Association has established a hotline at (04) 37710851 or (04) 38525252 for people, including foreign travelers and local Vietnamese, who have been ripped off by taxi drivers. Given that the recent overcharging scandal made by a driver of Trung Viet Taxi Company has harmed the image of Ha Noi’s taxi services, the Ha Noi Taxi Association has set up a hotline for passengers to report problems related to taxi operations. According to the city Department of Transport, within less than a month, authorities discovered two overcharging incidents from the Trung Viet taxi company and found one case in which one of their taxis had an electronic chip installed to inflate the fare. On April 28, during their honeymoon in Viet Nam, David Patrick and his wife were overcharged for nearly 7 km distance from the Military History Museum to the Viet Nam Museum of Ethnology. Although the meter read VND98,000 when they arrived, the cabbie charged them 10 times more, or VND980,000 (roughly US$43). After paying the amount, the couple took photos of the taxi and the driver and reported the incident to authorities. The driver was later questioned by police, while Trung Viet has returned the overcharged amount to the victims and fired the driver. The company has also fined him VND20 million.
