In our effort to provide a better service experience and platform for both Passengers and Driver-Partners, it is advised that Passenger No Show fee will be applied nationwide from October 10th 2019, when Passengers do not show up or show up more than 5 minutes late at the selected Pick Up point for your ride booking as showed on Grab app, causing the driver to cancel the ride.
100% of this fee will be paid to drivers to compensate for their time on the road, as they have made an effort to travel to your location.
How It Works
If you do not show up or show up more than 5 minutes late at the selected Pick Up point for your ride booking which causing drivers to cancel the ride, you will be charged a fee as below details:
- GrabCar, GrabCar Plus, GrabCar 7 and JustGrab: VND10,000
- GrabBike and GrabBike Premium: VND3,000
Notes: In the event that assigned driver agrees to wait for longer than 5 minutes for you to arrive and does not cancel the ride, this fee will not be applied.
This fee will be debited directly through the payment method you have chosen for the associated ride:
- If you pay with Moca E-wallet on Grab app, or Debit/ Credit card: you can choose to pay the fee immediately or pay it on the next ride.
- If you pay with cash: the fee will be added to the next trip cost.
In case you do not pay this fee on the next trip, your Grab account will be temporarily disabled for ride booking.
With this new policy, we hope to reduce the number of passenger no show bookings, in order to provide seamless rides for both Passengers and Driver-Partners.
Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.
