I just encountered a case today where it happened in the afternoon. The case goes like this:

I am x student from university. It was after work I ordered a Grab car to go back to my campus. I selected x University as the destination. When the driver arrived at the campus, I directed him to go to the hostel area. The fee was RM14 and I was charged with another additional RM2, so total RM16. I reported to Grab asking why they charged me additional RM2. After clarification, Grab says the driver reported that I changed my drop-off destination. Here is the argument:

- My destination was x university. The drop off point is at the hostel which is also in the university. Driver says I changed drop off point. I understand on the map it was marked at the uni gate. Other selection was available as well eg. canteen, gym, library....but none was hostel. If I selected library for example, which is closer to the hostel, the driver will still report I changed drop off destination.

- Grab blamed me for not selecting the proper drop-off point and I replied the drop-pff point was unavailable. So supposingly it is their fault not having the selection and charge me for their mistake.

- The time to reach between main gate and hostel is so near. I have encountered many drivers who don't kira the mile.

Dear Grab, thanks for letting me down so I can finally decide to uninstall your app.

which X university u mentioning?

I've been to UM, UITM and UPM and this kind of national university so damn huge. U should have let grab know the map doesn't have this location name and let them do something with it.

Before that u can use pin point location to locate where u are what.

Not pick-up you can pin point only meh. My destination was uni and I don't see can pin point lol.

Yalor. No argument on that. I was not satisfied with their selection not having precise location. Email-ed them and they asked for the address. That just left me speechless.

If rider pin at gate UM, then ask u enter 12th college hostel, i can confirm need to walk at least 900m, if car at least 2km and above.

So i ask which university is it, yet TS don't want to answer. The only thing i can guess is very very new building, most of the building in Malaysia already geo-tag inside the map.

Ask TS distance from gate to hostel also don't want answer, i as driver meet some of this kind of rider before already.

"Eh depan sikit bukan sini, belok kiri, belok kanan" I saw the mileage already extra 1km. doh.gif

Since it's already high-octane argument. I decided to disclose this information. It's very very very old place. Private uni typically is all-in-one place. Not like gomen place big like hell. If you still curious, drop me a pm.

Everyone has their own choices. (Regarding delete app)

If the driver told you beforehand he is going to extra charge RM2, then it sounds fair.

Everything or everyone has room for improvement. (Grab app)
If you are not willing to contribute for new location or whatever other stuffs, also show how you are as a person.

I should not waste too much time replying. Thanks.

I was NOT acknowledged about this charge. I went back to my room, received the email receipt, then noticed 'others- RM2'(using GrabPay). That's why I reported to Grab(first thought their system error charge me more). If the driver let me know at the main gate he would have to charge me extra RM2, I would be happy to pay too, especially the case will not drag so long. He drove me to hostel as agreed, therefore I am willing to pay. Does it sound fair to you right now?

Anyway, thanks for enlighten me on the 'contribute new location' thing, you're right.

Oh, I'm wasting my time replying. Never mind...

If u understand u marked at the uni gate then GET OFF CAR LAR.

If the time to reach main gate n hostel is near. WALK LAR

are u uni student for real? sampah masyarakat.. menyusahkan hidup orang

It was not until Grab notified me about the change of drop-off, and I check the map only know drop off actually set at main gate. It has been a habit to select the location and not looking at the map, my ignorance. If I knew that earlier, yes, I will drop off at the main gate. I confessed the truth. Believe or not, up to you. Who's the sampah masyarakat? You?
