Smart, Sun and Easy Taxi Help Commuters Beat the Holiday Traffic


Tired of being turned down by choosy taxi drivers? Rid yourself of holiday commuting woes with the mobile taxi-booking service, Easy Taxi. What’s even better is that up until December 27 this year, all Smart, Sun Cellular and Talk ‘N Text subscribers in Metro Manila can use the service without having to pay the P70 booking fee.

Available on Android and iOS smartphones, the Easy Taxi mobile app offers a convenient way for users to virtually hail a taxi to take them to their destination. By having a cab automatically assigned to them, passengers can avoid choosy cab drivers that tend to run rampant during the month of December.

“We’ve all experienced the headaches of hailing a cab during the holiday season. With this partnership from Smart and Easy Taxi, booking a taxi to take you back to your home or to any shopping mall is now just a few clicks away on your smartphone,” said Michele Curran, Data and International Services Marketing Head at Smart and Sun.

To book an Easy Taxi cab, simply open the app on your phone and choose your desired pick-up point on the map. After this, provide important details such as landmarks, your desired destination, the amount of tip to give your driver and the type of cab you want to fetch you and take you to your destination.

After clicking the "Request Taxi” button, users will immediately receive the driver's details including the name, photo, car model, phone number, and plate number. This gives them the peace of mind that should any emergency arise during the trip, they already have the necessary information to give the authorities.

“Easy Taxi prioritizes the safety and quality of service offered to its customers by confirming that the passenger has successfully boarded the vehicle through a personal call, all the way to a feedback form after every booking,” explained Mario Berta, Regional CEO of Easy Taxi.

“With the traffic rush and safety risks during the holidays, Easy Taxi’s zero booking fee is certainly a pleasant treat for all Smart, Talk ‘N Text and Sun subscribers,” Berta added.

The convenience of taxi commuting via the Easy Taxi app is best enjoyed with Smart and Sun’s unbeatable mobile Internet surfing offers, currently the most affordable in the country today.

To enjoy unlimited mobile surfing for one day, just text Unli<space>50 to 211 (Smart) or i50 to 247 (Sun) using your mobile phones. For instant Internet access, just turn on your phone’s data connection and use the app for only P5 per 15 mins. of mobile internet usage.

To download the Easy Taxi app, simply proceed to the Apple App Store (https://itunes.apple.com/ph/app/easy-taxi-app/id567264775?mt=8) or the Google Play Store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=br.com.easytaxi).

The Lurking King

Celebrity couple reportedly began fighting fiercely over a certain scandal, blaming each other for all that happened and the hatred and dirt the public had thrown at them and their family. Allegedly, since the scandal broke out, this household was never the same again.

Reportedly, the Indignant Wife IW was often heard hurling invectives at her Better Half BH for all that befell their family.

The nervousness and paranoia of the IW is not without basis. She constantly fears for her and the future of her big family. The other family members are reportedly as troubled, too. People privy to the family said it is hard to mask and sugarcoat the real situation in the domestic abode.

One night, BH arrived home and he saw that IW was already home ahead of him, and as expected, both engaged in harsh talk that ended in shouting match again. Reportedly, IW was unstoppable, talking to BH at the top of her voice. BH could not take it anymore and hurriedly left his mad wife.

The following scenario seemed like taken out from an FPJ movie of long ago.

BH decided to go to the house of his paramour, Sexy Actress SA to cool off and take the heat out from IW. Not long after, inside the house of SA, they heard a voice outside, shouting and cursing. They learned later that IW followed BH, and was so aghast to find out that he and SA were together.

The shouting continued demanding that BH come out but BH did not. But IW seemed like possessed by some spirits, she went on shouting unprintables at BH, getting louder every second. BH could no longer take the embarrassment and decided to come out from hiding and showed himself. The furious IW – just like in the movies again - demanded that her BH go home asap.

Allegedly, IW is consumed by all the negativities that she had to face everyday. On the personal aspect, overheard that it is insecurity that is eating IW up a lot. The reason why she took to gym workouts to at least help keep up with the competition.

Richard Yap Claims He Had a Rolex Since Kindergarten

Richard Yap, better known as “Sir Chief” in ABS-CBN’s hit daytime soap, Be Careful With My Heart, slammed Mic Sy Lim, the man behind FashionPulis.com. Richard Yap reportedly said:

“That guy has no credibility and I’m saying this on his face. He is supposed to be an educated person. He is from La Salle and he’s Chinese but with what he’s doing he’s bringing down the name of the institution he’sworking for, his being a Chinese”.

Richard Yap’s outburst stemmed from FP’s swipe at him via a blind item which said that he took advantage of his fans’ generosity by making parinig on his Twitter account about the gadgets and gifts that he would want to receive. Richard Yap answered the blind item by saying:

“I’ve heard that and if you can go through all my tweets ay wala akong hinihingi sa kahit na kanino. As much as possible ‘pag me nagsabi na ‘what do you want?’ ang sinasabi ko ‘you don’t need to bring anything,’ At saka lahat ng meron ako ay meron na ako nu’ng hindi pa ako pumasok ng showbiz. ‘Yung bahay ko, ‘yung mga kotse ko… Hindi ako nagba-brag. When I was still in kindergarten ay may Rolex na ako so I don’t have to ask from anyone and kaya kong trabahuhin lahat ito. Sa tingin ba niya, ang binibigay ng fans ‘yun lang ang ano ang gusto kong hingin sa fans?”

PS: In response to the blind item 'Yes, Some Rake It Cool'

Gone are the days when showbiz fans were happy just seeing their idols in person, or at most buying them sampaguita garlands that they put on their idols' necks while waiting for them to emerge from the studio or pack-up from movie shooting. Most of them just admired from a distance. Those were the age of prudence when fans were never too intrusive of their favorite stars.

Nowadays, the profile of movie fans has drastically changed. From merely screaming their lungs out, they now have money to burn anytime they wish. Truly, they have evolved big time.

Now equipped with the purchasing power, fans go the extra mile of giving their idols 'big' gifts to show their love and to make their idols remember them. Today's fans who buy these gifts like pricey gadgets (camera, laptop, cellphones) guitars, and even furniture and household appliances are becoming more commonplace than unlikely.

It is also for this reason that some stars abuse their fans' generosity. We know of a then neophyte but now a popular young actor who used the social media to insinuate to his fans and followers what gadget he so desperately needed that time. Such that when he went for a show abroad, he was shocked to wake up to rows upon rows of gifts from his fans waiting for him in the hotel lobby – his dream gadget included – and more. How cool is that?

Cute Heartthrob CH did not foresee his dizzying fame coming. He had no inkling that his charm and good looks would bring him awesome perks so soon. CH is pursued everywhere he goes, even abroad. CH's fans are aware that CH's Relative CR acts as his personal assistant (PA), a very hands-on one at that. Apart from the usual responsibilities of a PA, CR takes charge all of CH's other concerns like what he should wear to every event he goes to, what food he should eat, etc.

But what turns off his fans and followers is that CR discriminates who to prioritize in having photos taken with CH. Even if a fan comes ahead of the others but has no gift for CH, he/she will go disappointed. Reportedly, CR prioritizes only those who bring gifts for CH to have photo opportunity with him. How enterprising!

So if you are a truly a fan of CH, do not leave home without bearing gifts or you will be yanked away.
