    As an Indian the best advice I can give you when you visit India is, stay away from people who come to you by their own choice & offer services or stuff. If you need any help or directions, talk to people who mind their own business & are oblivious of your presence.

      Good advice. If you are a woman, have your hotel send a driver. Have the driver pick you up inside the train. The people who carry luggage got furious with me for having my driver pick me up in New Delhi. As if it was their right to carry my baggage. New Delhi trainstation is hell on earth at night. Even my driver was scared. Predators everywhere.

  • @ksprcool
    @ksprcool 2 ปีที่แล้ว +74

    Hey Karl! I love watching your videos, and the saddest part is that despite living in india for more than 50 years my dad got scammed by these so called “legit” taxi drivers. Unfortunately he didn’t know how to use the Uber/Ola App and which metro stop was the closest to him. I couldn’t pick him up because of my office timings and by the time i called him to book an Uber for him (knowing how these people scam you) he had already gotten into a cab. The taxi driver won’t even discuss the price and will drop you to the location and then extort unreasonably high prices (mentioning road taxes, parking charges, extra luggage tow charge, oil prices). The worst part is that they generally pick an un crowded road to drop you off so if the heckling goes out of hand, they can use force. It pains me to say that i couldn’t reach over there to help him out or pick him up. Some Indians do this under the pretence or an excuses of having a hard/poor life, but no one should resort to such petty methods of borderline thievery. With enough hard work and patience one can make a comfortable honest living. Thank You so much for spreading awareness and making these videos!

    I am an Indian and I am terrified of exiting railway stations or airports in the country becasue of these guys (they can get abusive and violent and they gang up against you). Given that, I think Karl held his own very nicely.
    Also, note that pre-paid taxis are themselves expensive, with prices jacked up as much as 100% because of pressure from these private guys. So the government also extorts, but to a smaller degree.

      Srini Sivabalan Very true. In India they are connected to the underworld. Some underworld guys give them "protection" in return for a cut from their earnings...which means they get "assured" business. They really harass passengers...so it's a better idea to go to the pre-paid cabs or autos. It's hopefully safer, especially if your an outsider.

    • @Anon54387
      @Anon54387 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Here in the USA it is typical for it to cost about $20 for a taxi from an airport to a hotel. Fuel is expensive the world over and, I'd think, so is auto insurance. Plus any taxi licensing fees. So perhaps the government tickets for private taxis are actually short changing the taxi drivers.
      It sounds like the pre-paid scheme one is taking the same taxi just presenting a ticket instead of paying money to the cab driver which, presumably, they turn in to the government to get 400 rupees? Do I understand this correctly?
      But your correct that this Karl guy didn't let himself get intimidated and that's good.

    Also just a helpful insight : the reason they were asking for the hotel name was because they usually have contacts in (some) hotels and will get commissions if they bring people there. If you would have told them your hotel name and if in that hotel they won't get commissions, then they probably would have manipulated you by taking you to a different hotel (where they have contacts) by giving the excuse - "this hotel is better" or "the previous hotel is closed" etc. Just telling them that you had to go to main market was a brilliant move.

    It amazes me that many people still don't know that in any country where the majority of the population is a shade browner than butter, it is customary to barter over anything. You never ever pay the asking price for any product or service. It's not a scam it's just part of culture.

So I had to find him at the airport and I was clearly looking out for a person. But instead one these guys found me and pretended I was to be picked up. Im so glad I didn’t fall for it but I was young and tired and almost fell for it.

    The best advice I can give is based on living and working in India for five years, when you get out at the airport do not even talk to them, look through them! If you need a taxi use the pre paid service which is available inside the airport building, personally I would always arrange for a hotel pick up. Avoid everyone that tries to approach you!

  • @indianpaddler710
    @indianpaddler710 5 ปีที่แล้ว +46

    Had faced this before and now the best way to deal with this is
    1) Opt for Meru cabs. Their counter is just around the Prepaid Taxi cab. They charge 5 to 10% extra over the prepaid taxi however their car's are in better condition and fully AC. Never had issues with them even after midnight.
    2) If you're taking uber at the Arrival Zone, you need to go to Departure zone to get the Uber faster because they are charged extra if they come to arrival and you can save money there
    3) Opt for prepaid taxi(Delhi police) like you see in the video. This is the last option because if you land at night then good luck with finding the taxis because these notorious drivers straight out reject you and noone from Delhi police will come to help. However during the day time its probably easier.
    However, if suppose you do get a taxi and he is trying to wait for other passengers so as to share with you then go ahead and move out of the car and complain to the police nearby as they are not allowed to do that.
    One trick to avoid rejection from these prepaid taxi drivers is that when they ask you "where are you going", without saying a word, get into the taxi because once you are in the taxi, they CANNOT throw you out from taxi as they have to drop you wherever you want to go.
    4) Download the DMRC app and go for Delhi Metro to find your routes. If you have too many luggage then you can avoid it but its best option for solo travellers.
