4 Watch Out Bad Shanghai Taxi Drivers

What can you do if the taxi driver tries to overcharge? i mean, they don't start off by telling you the price. Even if they get the meter running, they can still ask for more RMBs or stop in the middle of the road. What to do if this happens?
Or should I just pray that this will not happen?

3 Lovely English-Speaking Jinjiang Taxi Driver

Hi Jian Shuo, do you know if David Chen's number is still the same one? I'm travelling to Shanghai next week and it'll be good to have a ready form of transportation on hand.

2 Visa Card on ATM in China

when you go to the large shopping places with little stalls inside (i'm not sure what it's called), be sure to slash prices down to 1/4. Actually, that was the rule in beijing but i'm sure it's probably the same in shanghai? does anyone know?
I'm gg to shanghai next next week, so I guess I'll try it out then. Although sometimes are the chinese (in china) are too loud for my liking although i'm chinese too. So I gotta remind myself not to be intimidated by them. haha.

I read somewhere about withdrawing cash? when I went to china, I put my money in my wallet in my bag, and also stuff a few 100RMB notes in almost all my pockets.
