i couldnt do it....i couldnt go in the house thinking hes just ripped me off and I said nothing...hed say something if I paid him short you can bet that

That is fine. You would be able to walk away with a smug grin on your face. But that just leaves the driver to do the same to the next customer and the next customer. By getting all the details and paying the fare in full and knowing that the driver would be called before the LO and be dissiplined and made to refund the overcharge seems to be the better way. I still went home with a smug grin on my face as well.
Oh and I selected drivers from that particular company because I knew they were overcharging and I was getting the proof. :wink:

If you are getting overcharged don't pay thats what i say, why should you pay someone anything if they are trying to steal from you?

In a nutshell that's what it is it's theft.

Theft needs to be dealt with properly.
