Taxi Tip

[lankeela]

Short journey from station to hotel in Wales - 5.1 km and fare is £3 plus £1.01 per km - how much would this be and how much would you tip?

[Rockrose]

About 8.15 I would give a tenner

[douglas9401]

Hand over a tenner an say 'keep the change', especially if the .1km clicks over into another £1.01.

[bednobs]

it depends on whether its 101 per km or part thereof or just per km. 8-9 pounds

[Georgiesmum]

Here I would give them a £3 tip.

[lankeela]

I did think a tenner but not used a taxi for years.

Why tip a taxi driver?
You are paying for them to provide a service, end of!
Does anyone else on here get tipped for doing their job, I don't and I expect many others are the same!

[douglas9401]

I do, but then again I'm a tipper driver.

tommy cooper used to slip a tea bag into the driver's pocket saying 'have a drink on me later'

I agree with Saint Peter. Why tip at all? If he got off his backside and helped with shopping or luggage perhaps, but not for just sitting there!

[Georgiesmum]

Id give them a £3 tip. They always carry my shopping and put it inside my front door for me.
