In relation to this you can also ask yourself: how much would you charge to drive around pick up random people that are drunk, hostile, throw up in your car, dont want to pay and things that are worse?

So it is a risky business and there is only one person to pay for it.

Thanks for your comment. All your points are valid. I do understand that and I have no problem paying premium for certain services, such as high risk ones. The problem here is its marketing as "technology fee because of high demand" at £15 for a £4 (fake) route.
