Tried paying for Taxi twice (CityCab and Comfort) but keeps giving error. Anybody had successful payments on cab rides?

Has anyone ever tried using SamsungPay at SP services centers in either Woodlands or ToaPayoh ?

Are the card terminals there usable ?

Yesterday paid at a Restaurant that doesn't accept Amex successful, it was using a new handheld portable terminal so no problems.

Tried Comfort Taxi again (as UberX was on surge pricing) but didn't work, keep saying fail.

Even if taxi successful, will incur 10% admin fee and 7% gst right?

ps. Yesterday uber surge whole day becoz of the big promo for uberpool.. u could book thru uberpool instead..

Lol. Tried at Toa Payoh. Last month bill, went thru for $200+, using Samsung Pay, machine definitely can accept MST transactions (Citibank rewards card). Went down yesterday for this month's bill, they say management say cannot accept Samsung Pay, I was like wtf, not like I'm cheating your money or what.

This is because they are using old model terminal. But actually Samsung Pay still can be used.. Just need to tap Samsung pay twice. Once when they supposed to swipe card before entering input. Then again after they key in the amount and proceed with payment. I did that for 4 cards, on the same shop. The sales were so amazed by it even the managers also came to see... :s13:

I went down there personally as well. Saw that they are using the new terminals but they said that it was a management decision not to use SamsungPay.

I think if we all write in to SP services to complain and copy Ministry of Finance, see whether they will buckle under the pressure or not.

Yeah the charges still apply.

Yeah the promo ended at 10pm, I was looking for an Uber at 2am, not much UberX cars left at that time in Orchard.
