Cannot Find Driver at Pickup Point
Please have your contact mobile on to receive an sms from your driver. If a customer cannot locate the driver at the pre-determined pickup point, the customer must not leave that point before calling IDWT Collective on +61 436 232 000. IDWT Collective will attempt to connect the customer with the allocated driver or make alternate arrangements. If the customer leaves the pickup point without calling IDWT Collective, the customer will be liable to pay the full trip cost.
Customer Not at Pickup Point
Please have your contact mobile on to receive an sms from your driver. If a customer is not at the pre-determined pickup point at the pickup time and does not contact the driver or IDWT Collective within the courtesy waiting period (see the ‘Waiting Time and Charges’ section) the driver will call IDWT Collective, which will then attempt to contact the customer on the customer’s designated contact number. If such contact does not result in prompt pickup of the customer, then IDWT Collective will release the vehicle and driver from the relevant booking and the customer will be liable for the full trip cost.
Customer No Show after Authorised Waiting Time
If a customer has authorised and agreed to pay a waiting fee prior to pick up, the driver will wait up to 1 hour in addition to the agreed waiting time. If at the end of this waiting time, IDWT Collective or the allocated driver have not made contact with the customer then IDWT Collective will attempt to contact the customer on the customer’s designated contact number, depending on the nature of the Service booked. If such contact does not result in prompt pickup of the customer, then IDWT Collective will release the vehicle and driver from the relevant booking and customer will be liable for the full trip cost plus the waiting time.
Invalid/Incorrect Flight Number
If a customer has provided an invalid flight number, the driver on checking for flight arrival times will make contact with IDWT Collective Operations, who will then attempt to make contact with the passenger or the designated contact person in order to get valid flight details. If contact cannot be made with the passenger or other designated person, the driver will be instructed to go to the airport and wait at the designated pickup time. In this case waiting time charges will commence after only a 10minute courtesy waiting period as we have no way of assessing the actual flight arrival time. It is a condition of using our services that you unconditionally agree to this condition and agree to the extra waiting time charges in instances where you or someone booking on your behalf using your account have provided an invalid flight number and IDWT Collective have not been able to make contact to clarify the correct details. IDWT Collective will send an email to the customer account holder to advise of the situation and the invalid flight number.
