Today at lunchtime I caught a Taxi from Central Station to the Sydney domestic terminal which cost $22 which is normal . I then had to go back to Central station . The driver of the 2nd cab decided to take me via the scenic route which involved a charge of $32- .
I then used the GPS on the phone to work out a better way to go which appeared to upset him . I then paid him the $32- to keep the peace and went to the boot to get my bag . The Taxi driver then drove off with my bag in the car . His actions were deliberate . The bag contained $4000- worth of camera equipment with my air ticket back to Melbourne after the football .
I threatened the cab company with the police and reminded them that I had a well known media personality as a contact which I was happy to use . After 30 minutes my bag was returned as I was quick enough to write down the taxi details . The taxi driver was not concerned which confirmed his actions were intentional .
I would be happy to discuss the above matter with anyone so they can avoid the same problem .
