In Krasnoyarsk, the prosecutor's office organized a check of reports on taxi prices against a background of problems with mobile Internet. This issue was discussed at the workshop of the department with the participation of representatives of the regional antitrust service.
According to the prosecutor's office, during the absence of mobile Internet, the number of drivers who connected to the aggregators of the passenger taxi services in Krasnoyarsk decreased, which led to a significant increase in the cost of transportation. All interested departments will be involved in the inspections, including the regional Ministry of Transport and the Rostransnadzor service.
The local prosecutors have already held meetings with representatives of taxi services, at which entrepreneurs decided to increase the number of drivers and employees of dispatch services to transmit information on orders without using the Internet.
In order to prevent violations of passengers' rights, prosecutors announced to carriers of warning to carriers.
Recall that in Krasnoyarsk there are still malfunctions in the work of mobile Internet. The connection was partially restored only by some Krasnoyarsk residents who use the services of MegaFon, Beeline and T2 operators. Also, switching to 2G helps some users. However, most citizens continue to complain about problems.
A similar problem arose in neighboring regions – in the Kemerovo, Novosibirsk and Omsk regions, as well as Buryatia. Local authorities explain measures by terrorist threats
