If you had to Grab somewhere on Thursday (25 Oct), you were probably very, very lucky.
That’s because the ride-hailing app reportedly faced a technical glitch, plunging all fares to $6.
Don’t believe us? Take a look at this insane journey from Pasir Ris Street 52 to Singapore Sports Hub for $6.
But the problem seemed to have been resolved by 4.30pm on Thursday. When MS News tried to book that same ride, the fare had risen to a more realistic $13.
And this trip from Choa Chu Kang to the airport cost just $6 as well.
