    Carry small bills. Problem solved. :wink: But, I've had the same thing happen but never had to bug them about the change. They always brought it later on in the trip without any reminders from me. I avoid these problems now and make sure to keep plenty of small bills/change in my pockets at all times.

    Last year I booked on a small freighter out of Duma on the George & Peter line. An adequate cot & blanket on deck, under an awning for $8 right to Cebu harbor. We departed 11pm, arrived 7am. It was great.

    I have made the trip several times and, very reluctantly, put my stuff in the storage (I'm always afraid someone will get off and jack my sh*t, which prevents me from sleeping the whole way). I have never paid extra for the luggage. My gf regularly takes trips to Cebu and Bayawan on the bus and she has never paid for luggage either. Sounds like a long nose tax to me. Demand a receipt and I bet they forget about the charges. If they still demand payment and refuse to give you a receipt inform them you will be reporting them to the BIR and then get their names. That'll properly screw up their day.

    If any one has experienced this on the trip to Cebu and back on the bus......a few times a year I take my partner back to Cebu to visit family. we usually take a small luggage each which gets stored in the lockers under the bus and my partner carries her handbag on the bus with her.........most trips....get on the bus pay the bus fare to Cebu.....about 205p then we go on the ferry and pay about 70p for that...............a couple of times now the conductor has asked extra for the small luggage that goes in the locker under the bus............we refused to pay.....one time the conductor asked the fare for another person from us to cover the luggage in the locker even though it was a small luggage.........my understanding is you pay your bus ticket and that covers any luggage that goes in the outside locker and believe me I have seen some people bring half the house with them........smile
