Beware of Athens airport taxi drivers
Athens Airport Taxi.info的点评
点评：The dreaded ripoff happened to us, despite trying to be cautious…used the official taxi queue line for a driver. We asked the taxi driver at the airport if he accepted credit cards just to be sure. He said don’t worry, we can talk about it in the car. Lots of commotion so we got distracted. Of course, we were very tired from a long trip and should have realized ahead was happening.
Halfway on the ride to Athens from the airport the driver said there was a problem with the battery in the credit card machines. They were being fixed all weekend and he only took cash. But don’t worry he will drive us to the ATM machine so we can take our cash to pay him. And he suggested we take some for ourselves since this problem was bound to be happening all over Athens this weekend.
Took out cash to pay him. Of course no small bills from the ATM and the driver didn’t have much change. Only a 10 euro bill which meant he gave himself an extra 5 euro tip on top of an 85 euro ride that we were told should have only been 60 euro at most. And on a calm traffic day Saturday morning.
Moral of the story, be careful. Bring small bills and insist on knowing what to expect before riding. In a taxi.
I asked if he was a free now driver since it was advertised in the taxi. I could pay that way. He explained that since he started as a taxi I couldn’t pay him through free now (like uber in Greece). I don’t even know what to believe but I’m very upset.

翻译：尽管我们一直很谨慎，但还是遭遇了可怕的宰客事件……我们特意在机场的出租车候车区排队等候。为了保险起见，我们还特意问了出租车司机是否接受信用卡。他说不用担心，我们可以在车上谈。当时车里很吵闹，我们没太注意。当然，长途旅行让我们非常疲惫，我们本应该意识到接下来会发生什么。
从机场到雅典的半路上，司机说信用卡机的电池出了问题。整个周末都在维修，他只收现金。但他保证会开车送我们去ATM机取钱，这样我们就可以取现金付给他了。他还建议我们自己也取一些，因为这个周末雅典到处都会出现这种情况。
我们取了现金付给他。当然，ATM机里没有小额钞票，司机也没有多少零钱找给他。他只给了我一张10欧元的钞票，这意味着他给自己额外给了5欧元的小费，而我们被告知这趟车最多也就60欧元，却要85欧元。而且这还是在周六早上，交通顺畅的情况下。
所以说，一定要小心。带小额钞票，上车前一定要问清楚费用是多少。尤其是在出租车上。
我问他是不是“免费司机”（free now），因为车上贴着“免费司机”的广告。我可以用这种方式付款。他解释说，因为他一开始就是开出租车的，所以我不能用“免费司机”（free now，类似于希腊的Uber）付款。我不知道该相信谁，反正我很生气。
