Hi Sir/Madam,
Last Thursday i.e. April 30, I had been to the Pune railway station to pick my sister and their children. While I was waiting for them I enquired for Auto from Railway Station to Treasure Society in Pimple Gurav. The autorickshawala said he would come by meter. I was surpised since last month, hardly any rickshawala was ready to come by meter reading. So, we board the rickshaw at Railway station and proceed to our society. We expected that the bill would be 150 rupees maximum since generally it is 135 rupees by rick and we pay some return or luggage charges.
However this fellow demanded 350 rupees saying that the rates have been revised last week. It is 10 rupee per km and he showed us a rate book with Government Stamp.
The autorickshaw number is MH12 4814. I do not recall the two alphabets in it. We argueed with him but then he got wild and got down violently. since we three were females with 2 kids, we silently paid him the amount and closed the matter.
But, we have experienced that they rickshawala over charge customers upto 1159 rupees. Since the new comer is unaware of the rates and distances, they are majorly deceived by these autorickshawla's.
