if u go by the taxi stand u need to pay extra 50 baht but its just a small sum to pay mostly there ppl there assisting you they do speak abit english but if u know thai and dont wanna spend the extra 50 baht by all means take the cab from the top level so u dont have to pay the extra.

And yes always open the cab driver door tell him the location before u enter its the best way to avoid being overcharged. but theres some places which its hard to get a cab cuz all will not on the meter places like RCA. Its unavoidable if you are in a hurry and dont wish to ask cab by cab (cause u are high LOL)

I find cheongsters very funny de.
Already paid a few hundred SGD/MYR on air tickets and accomodation and can afford to spend a lot of money on girls (either ripped off or willingly) but can make so much noise when over paid THB50-100 for Taxis.

Let's get back to cheong matters not how Taxi Drivers suck.
We know Bangkok Taxis can be a pain in the ass.
If cannot tahan idiotic Taxi Drivers then take Bus, MRT/BTS or Motorsai mah.

I am not Thai but I do this too. The main reason is I am super lazy. I dun want to get into the taxi and tell the driver where I want to go but the driver does not want to go to the location and I have to get out.

50THB different and no one will stop u. The so called traffic control will chase the taxi driver away once the passenger has alight.

Can't be help la Pii, every time I take taxi tok extra 50 to 100 BHT, if 10 time take taxi in 1 month, can eat 4 person meal laew na Pii.

Last time I stay got no BTS/MRT, only taxi to city, as my gf dislike to drive to city.

But lucky I tio tok 2 X only, and after that I learnt my lesson, no way I allows myself to tio tok. Tell them my route once I boared the taxi.

I see, last time I got tried before, but the traffic asked the taxi to drive off, before I managed to take my baggages from the airport trolly.

So I thought, the traffic contorller against it, so went back to one level and Q for taxi.

This isn't a trick or new tip and is nothing new. Most who have been to BKK couple of times know this. Even if take taxi from other arrival hall only pay extra 50b so don't know what is the big fuss. They all use meters fare at same rate as when flag down a taxi. Not bullshit inflated prices like KL airport or other so called expensive airport taxis in other foreign airports

Ya that is just nonsense. Doesnt matter whether you sit inside taxi or talk to him outside. I always jump in and sit inside with aircon. If I am not happy I just tell him to stop and I get off. I know it is not humanly possible for him to turn around while driving and strangle or point a knife at me so I have the upper hand. I have only encountered scammer taxis around MPs like Chao Phraya, The Plaza but other than that almost all taxis use meters and are pretty good.
Also all that talk about knowing Thai will help when taking taxis is also just paranoid nonsense. Like woshixiong said bad hat taxi driver will rip off locals also

Correct. If they do not speak some English why they go airport to pick foreign customers? Anyway telling taxi to go to your destination is not rocket science. Pronounce hotel name or road name slowly. No need to speak English

Correct correct. It is called "satang wise, phan baht foolish"

Bangkok Taxis 101
1) You can save Bht50 by taking taxi from Departure Hall driveway but have to fast else traffic controllers will chase taxi away. Poot thai mai dai? No problem, mai mee bpen haa, take out address suitably printed in Thai to show driver.

2) Driver not want turn on meter? Easy... get out and flag another. Somchai not want take your fare? Mai bpen rai Bangkok many taxis want your business.

3) Not take taxi or tuk tuk outside hotel or tourist attractions. They will rip you off! Shopping? Seafood? Massage?

4) RCA from 2am to 3am taxis all flat rate, Bht300, irregardless how near or far in Bangkok. Unless u stay like Thongburi then he probably quote you Bht1,000. So pay up or else order a bowl of post-clubbing kway teow from the many roadside stalls. By the time u finish the drivers would have reverted back to using their meters. Strange but only in RCA u get this. Not at Thonglor, Sukhumvit or Rachada clubbing areas.

5) Rule number 4 also applies to taxis flagged down between 5:30pm to 8pm at Pratunam area. 99% will refuse to use the meter even if u r Thai.

6) Learn to pronounce destinations the Thai way. Central World is "Sen-turn Wurr", Siam Square is just "See-yum".

7) Offering a flat rate to the airport, say Bht300 to Bht400, may not be a good deal. Once this driver drove me all the way via the small roads! He wanted to save on tolls so can earn more luckily traffic light and made it on time. That time poot thai mai dai so learn to speak a bit of Thai helps....

Go = bpai
Expressway = dtang duan or toe waay (toll way)
Taxi meter = mee-ter
Traffic jam = rot dtit
Open = bpert

Go to XXXXXX = Pii bpai XXXXXX krap
Go by expressway = Pii bpai dtang duan krap (usually toll fees borne by you)
Turn on or use the meter = Pii bpert mee-ter krap

Always polite to use "Pii" (senior) to address the driver (even if he looks younger or the same age as u) and end requests with "krap". We will never speak or sound like locals but u can act as if this is not your first time in Bangkok. A lot of people can speak Thai but forget the correct way of speaking it. Helps to lessen the chance of u being literally being taken for a ride.
