Nam's Taxi Service

I'd think paying at the airport for an unmarked taxi is tempting fate. 

@Encora, do you know if this is a problem?   On one occasion the driver accompanied me into the terminal from the car park and I gave her the payment inside the terminal.   On the last trip she used the drop-off lane and did not park the car,  so I paid there.  The driver did not appear concerned about this.

Do you know if there have been any difficulties?  Nobody seems to complain on the inbound trip when the drivers wait at the meeting point with my name on a card.

I have been asked a couple of times to pay before arriving at the airport. Not certain if it can really cause a problem for the driver to be seen being paid, but, since it is easy enough to pay before arrival, or discretely pay while still in the car, I am happy to do that!

I tip 100 on a 1000 baht ride. They seem happy. I am happy. Everyone is happy. I never discuss money during my ride. After I get my bags, I pay. Never an issue. People need to stop comparing to their home countries. Understand the minimum wage in Thailand and use that as a reference point.

Tried to book with Nam Pattaya- BKK tonight and he had nothing available. Booked with an alternative instead and the driver (male) turned up smashed out of his head. “I not drink Spirits” he managed to slur

Appears as you are not familiar with the business model Nam ( who is a lady) and other similar companies are operating and you cant expect vacant drivers with an hour's notice. If you want to secure a cheap,safe ride; book a few days ahead.

As I read your installment you tried to book a taxi to BKK with very short notice. Nam didn't have a vacant drivers and you had to book with other company. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that in my book is a credit to Nam; she serves all customer equally

I have to admit as my trip is only a month away and as previous posts, yes, I tried to book early despite a reassurance from Encora I am now worried I will not be met at Swampy.

There appeared to be a problem with my email address but despite giving alternative address direct to namsladydrivers still no contact from Nams.

First time I have tried to use them, always used Mr T in the past, now regretting following a PA recommendation that has not worked for me.

Since they both joined at the same time and both have just 4 posts, theres a good chance they are the same person, possibly related to a rival taxi business? 🤔

Can anyone answer normally how long it takes to get a reply? Sent an email earlier today and have not heard back from them. I'm afraid it could be one of those things were your email gets lost.

I usually get a reply on the same day, in late afternoon/early evening. The "email got lost" issue you might have read about earlier in this thread was a user error. He added a punctuation to the email adress, thus sending to an invalid address.

Did you check your 'junk mail" folder?

Did you check that your spelling of the email you used?

Remember to make allowance for time difference. Daytime in Canada may be night in SE Asia, e.g. Google says:

Toronto is behind Bangkok by
11 hours
