Thank you Thank you and Thank you both to Brother ProfessorOokami and Brother Ah_Hia. I was beginning to wonder if my posts were really not worth getting a single reply. Finally 2 brothers have vindicated me. A big thank you once again.
No need to thank us. If fact bros here should thank you for the detailed tips and Dos and Donts.

Just wave them off and keep walking while keeping mum.

I clearly mentioned to the guy where i wanted to go to. He wrote P200 on the receipt. Half way through the journey he stopped the cab and told us the Hotel was some distance away and the fare would be P250.
U should just have asked him to turn around and bring u back to the airport cuz the promised rate was 200p. Never give in to them even though it is only 50p.
