Ride hailing apps overcharging.

Recently I saw a lot of posts complaining about Rapido/Ola/Uber bike/auto/taxis overcharging more than the amount shown in the app. A uber moto anna shared a hack with me. Try negotiating to a lesser amount if possible. I'm not justifying the extra amount, but with the charges Rapido is collecting from its riders, an extra of 10-15 for bike, 30-40 for auto and 50-70 for taxis are reasonable. Again, not justifying, just saying. Side note: Uber and Ola charge very low commission from its riders. So if they try...

Today a auto anna charged me 100 for a 1.5km ride

I had to quickly go to a pharmacy and booked a Rapido. The app showed 40-60. The person who called said he wants 100 for the ride. I told him it's merely a km and cancelled the ride. Then booked a Uber auto. The app showed 60. The auto anna said he needs 100. I had to take it because it was a little important. I asked him to drop me back in the same location. So basically for a total of 3km ride, he charged me 200. However...

Airport car drop off - parking scam

I went to drop my family member for a morning flight and had boot full of luggage. It took around 4 mins to fully unload them and sending them off and when I come out, I was told “sir only 3 mins free parking”, and the guy next to exit, charged me ₹60 for just around less than 10 mins that too on the driveways. Is this a new scam ? Because from this link it looks like I was scammed https://www.aai.aero/en/airports/passenger-info/coimbatore/Park-%26-Fly

Pre school recommendations

My daughter is 2 years and we are looking to join her in a pre school/ play group next year. Initially I was more aligned towards Montessori approach but looks like not many good options are available in coimbatore. Am now open to mixed curriculum… if it’s a school that has pathways to higher education then great… we are looking for IGCSE/IB schools. Any recos..? We are in Saibaba colony and won’t mind a travel within 10km.

Gundas beating up kids in Dhanalakshmi engineering college.

My friend’s brother, a student at Dhanalakshmi Srinivasan College of Engineering in Coimbatore, shared a troubling situation. He mentioned that certain individuals, allegedly gang members from Madurai, have been targeting private hostels near the college. These individuals accuse students of possessing Ganja (marijuana) and demand money, often resorting to severe physical violence to intimidate them. Even when they mistakenly enter hostels where no drugs are found, they continue to assault students, particularly targeting Malayali students, and impose fines as a pretext to extort money. In one incident, a student...
