hi all,
i have a question: why should i pay for karwa taxi the minimum charge of 10 QR?? i mean my work is very near to my house and when i reach my destination, the monitor is always not more than 5.5 QR, and they make me pay 10 QR, and the funny thing is that the petrol here in Doha is really very cheap, so no need to make such minimum charges on the customers. i am paying 20 QR per day for a taxi and my house is from home center point to approximatly Qtel Signal, which is very near but cant go walking cuz i have leg problem and also very hot. and the funny thing they have the worst service and they are controlling the whole taxi field in qatar which is really selfish from them. plz does anyone knows any taxi with a fair price ?? plzzzzz !!! thank u all in advance..

Salam alaykum,

i am searching a women driver who can bring me every morning to my class and take me after one and half hour back to my home.

Does anyone know a women driver?

If Karwa drivers try to over-charge you, there are means of complaining. I suggest you note the taxi number and threaten to call the company.
