A post on the Complaint Singapore Facebook page showing the conversation between a PHV driver and a customer has left many netizens amused.
After accepting the customer’s request for a ride, the driver asked the customer if they could wait while he purchased a 4D lottery ticket.
The customer was evidently displeased with the driver’s bizzarre request.
A Facebook user posted a screenshot of the exchange on Sunday (28 April).
Their chat started with an auto-generated message notifying the customer of the PHV driver’s arrival.
The driver then sent a follow-up message stating, “I am on my way. Please wait for me”.
After a few minutes, the driver sent another message, asking the customer if they could wait five minutes.
Before the customer could respond, the driver replied,
I go buy 4D.
Unamused by the driver’s request, the customer stated that they were in a hurry and advised the driver not to buy a lottery ticket after accepting a passenger’s reques
It is unclear if the ride was cancelled after the conversation.
After reading the conversation, many Facebook users were amused by the driver’s request, saying they would not have been as honest.
Others speculated that he may have been “lying” as it can be near-impossible to purchase a 4D ticket in under five minutes.
However, most commended the driver’s honesty and told the customer to let the situation go.
