One of the clients said on social networks that the service debited money from her card for non-existent trips within a period of five hours. Yandex reported that a similar problem affected several hundred users.

The company explained that the reason was technical problems and added that to date all funds canceled in error have been returned to customers. “The service is now operating normally,” Yandex Taxi said.

The company assured that it is taking measures to prevent this from happening again.

It was previously known that Russians are increasingly ordering taxis through social networks and instant messengers. Illegal drivers offer half-price rides, but safety is not guaranteed, writes Kommersant.

ANO Digital Platforms CEO Arseny Shcheltsin called on Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin to support the digitalization of authorization procedures in the field of passenger transportation. This should bring order and help shape legislation for self-employed drivers.
