Grab overcharging in the name of toll

Sir, my name is soumya Chowdhury, recently I took grab car services in Indonesia for dropping to CGK airport, and I was extorted by the driver for more money, when I send message to Grab, they say they will educate the driver and thats all, they not show any concern returning the money or care about your security issues that you faced.
The incident happend on 10th April.
Booking id ADR-[protected]-3-008
I requested a refund but the customer service in Indonesia is so dumb and consistently saying that they will educate driver thats all.
Dear Sir,
Please return the extra sum that was paid to Grab driver.
You are shamelessly protecting Grab services, you donot care the security issues that we face when driver extort money from foreigners like us.
Uber always returned the money, but Grab is shamelessly defending driver.

This is not professional.

Thanks,
Soumya Chowdry

Dear Sir,
Thank you very much for your email.
Its not my problem how you will educate your driver, its your issues with driver, sorry for being so straight and blunt.

Please think, how you can pay me back this extra money paid to driver, otherwise in future every time I use your services I will face this.

I can tell you I was a regular user of Uber, every time I faced this they have refunded back the money.

I would like to know, how you will pay me back, otherwise grab is just like a other taxi service who ripped off foreigners.

In the bottom I will also accuse you that you are protecting your drivers not riders.

Thanks,
Soumya Chowdry

Dear Sir,
The driver demanded 20K Indonesian rupees (I paid 112K total), is this ok.
Grab never said anything about tolls in the offer.
Please advise.
The original offer was 92K.
Please advise.
Please make English language app also for Indonesia.

Dear Mr. Soumya,

FYI, I work at CGK, and depend from where u went, the toll is normally 16500 IDR to 20500IDR, if you donot wish to take the Tollroad, you will arrive probably 3 or 4 hours later... incase you didnt want to get charged the toll by the driver, next time you need to prepare (buy) e-money for your self, and topup some cash to e-money (as indonesian regulation) will have to pay extra charge (again)
Thats how it work,

sorry for bad English and have a good day

Grab grab does not help in recovering lost item

Dropped my phone in the grab car indonesia outside the airport, messaged lost&found in app, gave car chase with findmyiphone location tracking, lost mode alarm and constantly calling, the driver refuse to pick up and drove further and further away. gave up and returned to the airport. next day grab indonesia customer service replied, they asked the driver the next day and the driver said no, directed me to call the driver myself if i want to and closed the case. i tracked the phone for 3hours and questioned the integerity of the driver yet this is the answer i got from Grab? during the chase i was wondering why the driver wanted to keep the phone becauase a locked iphone is useless and Grab have both of our details which means either party usually cant run away from responsibility. but after 2 days and the lack of help from Grab i realised it was so easy to take over whatever belonging a passenger has dropped. all the driver has to do is to reply he did not see the item. the company take zero responsibility to counter check.

Grab attitude of some grabcar drivers

I am a first-timer in using Grab, so everything I do with Grab is new to me. So here's the problem, I texted the driver the I would like to cancel the booking because I got locked out of the house and I don't have my keys, I didn't how to cancel. Seeing that my destination was to church, the drive then bad-mouthed my religion. It really seem offensive, rude, and insensitive. I don't know if you can do something about this, but please. I just want to address this. He can just bad-mouth me, but he didn't have to involve religion.

Grab dangerous n troublemaker driver. slw2131d

This morning 04/04/2018, 7.02am.
From CTE exiting to Ang no Kio Ave 1 exit. This car is driving slowly so when reached Ave 1 exit main road I signal and change land to 3rd then 2nd lane. This car which is moving slowly, saw I signal and changing lane, suddenly speed up and without any signal just swerve from 4th lane to 2nd lane and block me casukbg me to step on the brake hard just. to avoid collision. At that point of time I can see there are passager in his back seat! It's this the kind of driver your company want to represent with or this driver is trying to purposely trying to caused an accident? Or he think he owns the road?
Please educate this driver to drive with safety in mind first! Not as and what way he like! This is not a play ground

Grab rewards

I was going home from a visit and I booked at grabcar from J. P. Rizal to Pateros and it cost only 107 pesos. I have a reward that less it by 100 which leaves only 7 pesos. I used my card instead since I don't have any coins with me but and upon reaching my destination, I found out that the entire amount was lessen to my card instead of just 7php! I was surprised after checking if my reward was there and yet it was but the statement of account in my passbook did say that my card was deducted by 107 pesos instead of just 7! What's the use of discounts if you can't save anything from it!

Grab rude driver, bo 1707 mitsubishi mirage red emmanuel mascarinaz borja

I booked a grab car to pick up to pick up two people from a certain address in Quezon City in The Philippines. It just so happend that the pinning wasn't accurate in the satellite so pinned it to the nearest place of the pick up, when the driver arrived, he was complaining and [censor]ing from the start, I on the other hand tried to helped this driver through my directions on where the pick up is like it's on a gate near a store, but the driver didn't really care to listen he just [censor]ed moaned and complained about there where many similar gates and threatened to cancel the trip, so I said wait I'll just call them then as I hang up the phone I cancelled it my self. Drivers like this are simply rude and impolite, they rather reply that listen. If they are not willing to wait for the passenger for a few seconds or simply don't know how to listen to be guided with directions or simply to be respectful of their clients, I don't see any reason why these drivers should continue doing grab or uber for that matter.

Grab grabcar driver booking

I am complaining to your grab drivers who accept grab car booking even though they are still in doing other personal things such as esting meal (I put one comment to one of your driver about this and I think you guys can see it in your system).

and today just 2 days after that incident, one grab driver again accepted our booking while he still in his house fixing himself for work.

Grab, this is unacceptable, you have to do something to discipline your drivers and if you really are commited to give your client the best experience riding with grab.

today's grab unit is UF 5079
me and my wife him for cavite to bicutan-paranaque ride.

Grab unethical behaviour and very rude

Date of Incident : 11 March 2018, Time : 21:14,
Place : Yishun Ave 3.

I happen to enter wrong block number (766), however I called the driver & told him its 763, 3 block away.
I offer to walk over to 766, Driver say he stay 761, so he knows the way.
Upon getting up the Grab car, driver wanted to charge extra 3 for delay.
But I told him I called & have informed him of the correct block number & he offer to swing over.
I told him in that case I am not taking.. He make a Rude gesture & say
"WASTING TIME"
Such Grab drivers should be taken off the Grab list of drivers as its bring and image to the company.
There are many others Good image drivers waiting in the Q to be your drivers.
Please take immediate action.

Grab I am complaining yx9967

The driver was so rude and impatient. I asked her in a nice way if she could wait for awhile but she began to yell and complain that I was so slow, she got very angry and told me in a very rude way that I should be ready when she got there to pick me up. And I told her that I asked permission if she could wait for awhile and that I have not yet exceeded the allowed time for waiting but she continued to yell and say rude things at me. And we I accidentally closed her door loudly she began to yell again to the extent that people outside can see and hear how rude she was. I said sorry to her but she continued to yell at me and told me to cancel the booking. I hope that you can create an action plan about this matter because this is not the proper way how to treat your customers.

Grab no contact info on driver and no lights

When we entered the car there were no lights, it was dark, the driver did not even bother to open the light inside the car (the one attached to the roof) so we were not able to check if there were items left by previous passengers. I forgot my bag inside but there was no contact info on the driver so we were not able to call him about the incident. The next rider/passenger might have found my bag but decided not to tell the driver about it. It has a lot of valuable items inside including a laptop, cellphone, tablet, and many important receipts. Until now there is no update regarding my lost bag.

Grab grab car driver

Goodevening!
It was my first time using grab. Yet, the driver that I was found was not in courtesy with his passenger.
At first he tried to make us add an additional payment, eventhough he said that I shouldn't. The price on the grab from our place to our drop off place is only 325 yet he is asking for 500. But, I said I can't, so he just said "okay that is only my side". And I let it pass, I just pay 400.
But, the sad part in this experience was he didn't even consider his passenger and continually asking for personal information and he also tried to offer some business to my companion. Even my companion already reject because he's not even interested. And he keeps on asking for additional payment though. It's just irritating, that the fact that he want to ask for additional payment yet he don't want to accept it. Because he wants to make it clear that it was our willingness to give, the fact that they aren't allowed to do so.
And the worst thing was, he tried also to disturb my companion who is resting inside the grab car. What an unmanner act was that?
This was my first experience in grab car after I heard many advantages of it, yet this driver of yours showed us that we shouldn't. Can I have an action for this thing?
