This board is about giving advice to get laid and save money. My advice is that it is not a question about having a heart attack but rather about having the stomach to calmly and resolutely state your case and not be shaken down.

One time it took me a while to get a trike since most of them were charging alot and the other ones didn't want to go there because it has to go up in the mountain or maybe afraid of the bikers, so after 45 minutes of looking for a trike (there were not taxis in that city BTW) I found one with a reasonable price, so afew blocks after after we left (close to a 7 eleven) 3 motorbikes stop us and talk to the trike driver and then the driver said he can not take me anymore because only bikes are allow to go up that mountain, I got piss and yell at them, of course I did it because there were people around the 7 eleven and 20 meters away there was a plaza with guards and a police station two blocks away, so I ask them what union are you so I can ask if you are legit in the police station 2 blocks away, once they heard police station they change their tune and said, OK this time I let you go but next time you can only take motobikes from the union. I just laugh and said: Whatever!
Only in Philippines!

I believe there might be an app for the Blue Taxis. Or get the number of several Blue Taxi drivers.
The drivers pay a daily rental fee plus gasoline. Please treat them well. I like to see them knock out the trike mafia.

Posts: 462Advice please
So after 2 years of pandemic lockdown and then a three stint back in the RP this life back in my home country is kind of boring.
What positive tips do you guys have to settle back into home life? Or am I just going to be working towards my next trip?

I would personally deem a tourist scam to be not having the meter on at all or taking you wrong route. One of my friends got in a taxi on Burgos, asked to go to Greenbelt, but was so drunk he woke up in the taxi at the base of mountains beyond BGC! That's a scam!
While it's great to share advice this isn't something I'll be following. The times when an extra 50 has been requested were on public holidays or when it was raining heavily. With the situation with grabs at the moment, I'd prefer to pay 50 than not get a ride at all. If it was 500 or something then there'd be an issue worth arsing about with.

At The exit they All had lists which "official prices."
I said no way.
What Kind of tourist scam is that?
And believe me no one would take you with Meter. They Just leave you there.
I went to the other Terminal.
Again the same, no Meter. Only official lists quoting 700 p to my hotel!
No way.
I went up to the Street and took a taxi from the Street.
He also did not wanted to use meter, but was ok with 500 p.
Was it always that Bad in Cebu airport?
One of the most things I hate is these taxi mafia.
