SMRT revenue sharing scheme.....

Drive · Guru

Think this scheme has a quota on mileage that must be fulfilled otherwise penalty applies. Get the full details of it before committing.

wonder how would you feel if your total taking is around $3K for the coy and your take home pay is $1K? Assuming you need to attain the quota mileage specified.

If clocking base on mileage and not fare taking then is easy. Cos I work shift so only work 15days a month. So during my off day I can clock my mileage. Just do a few round Changi Airport to 2nd link during none peak hour very fast can hit. No earning nevermind. After my night shift ends at 8am I can still do a few call at peak hour then clock mileage on highway until 12plus go home sleep in the afternoon. Anyway I also dun sleep so early. Got additional 1k plus free transport. During shift I got 2 X 2hours break also can go round the estate do a few midnight trip. Most important no fare nevermind got mileage can already. What you guys think? But if base on fare takings then more stress cos mileage easily clock but fare is heng suay one. :(

this scheme has been around for awhile but is not worth to consider at all.
many who took the scheme return key within 2 days.
the scheme is not milage, is total fare collection. SMRT is not stupid. evileye

one has to clock $300 per day (24 hrs) and enjoy the free diesel.

you need to bank-in that amount everyday. if you failed to bank-in

$300 on monday, you have to top-up the short fall on the following day.

camrylimo was one of the victim when he first started. smile

i dont know if they hv since change the scheme or not. wink

HA HA HA. Bank in $300 per day. Don't thinkmany cabbies can achieve that amount with the current situation. It is as good as $300 rental per day... WTF... furious

Knn if I can hit 300 a day presuming I am driving a crown which they hire for 70plus lets put it 80 plus diesel say another 80 max I still have 140 earning nett. And if multiply by 30 days I can get 4.2K a month and they have the cheek to pay out just 1K! Really biggest scam of the century. Knn
