Social media is an avenue to express unattended or considered less important personal complains. Just like the veteran violinist John Lesaca who used his Facebook account to bring to the attention to the social media about the unprofessional Uber driver identified as Anie Agbayani.
During interview, John Lesaca told reporter the whole story started from the place where her daughter and her mother took Uber car from Varsity Hills along Katipunan Avenue to The Medical City for radiation treatment as her mother suffered cancer illness.
John was angry because he was told that the Uber driver Anie was asking her daughter and her mother to walk across the highway because according to the driver, she will take another hour going back home if they continue to their destination because of the heavy traffic causing her to travel far going back driver’s home, considering that Anie has already complaining her legs shaking from over use since 4 am.
Anie Agbayani offers discount from 380 to only 300 for them so that they will not complain of her service. From there, John’s daughter extended the 300 and takes a walk with John’s mother and took all the risk across the way and inhales the pollution coming out from the cars.
Here is the complaint letter of John, read it here below:

Three counts against UBER and driver ANIE AGBAYANI:
“1. She drove dangerously. She ran thru the Abada-Alvero intersection without stopping, kept on changing lanes thru C5 and Ortigas traffic, counter-flowed around the island at Ortigas cor Green Meadows to get ahead of two cars in front of us. She put 2 medical patients’ lives in danger due to her reckless driving.
It made my daughter very dizzy and step on imaginary brakes, and seeing how badly stressed out her mother was due to the bad driving, she tried to calm her mother down and amuse her with other things.
2. ANIE AGBAYANI was unprofessional. She munched on a pack of Mr. Chips and drove with cheese on her fingers, sent audio messages to someone she was corresponding with on her mobile phone, and sang along to Alanis Morisette’s album on loop. (Shoutout to those in their 30s who know the lyrics to You Oughta Know.)
3. ANIE AGBAYANI addressed her passengers after crossing the stoplight at Ortigas corner Green Meadows:
“Umm”, she said, “You can get to the hospital faster if you walk”.
Her mother said, “no thank you, we’ll stick out the traffic in here”
My well-bred daughter, being a teacher, asked, “is that alright with you”?
“Yup”, the driver replied.
A minute later, ANIE AGBAYANI said, “aaah, coz I live nearby already, and if I take you to Medical City I’ll have to go around and it will take me another hour to go home… But if you get down here, it will take me only 20 minutes”.
Both my daughter and her mother were in shock.
“You want us to walk”?
She added, “coz I started at 4 am and my knees are shaking already”.
My daughter and her mother looked at each other.
It was raining and although it was a short uphill walk for healthier people, both she and her mother were not feeling well, especially due to their health condition.
The driver then said, “I’ll tell you what. I’ll give you a discount nalang. Instead of paying 380, you can just give me 300”.
My daughter gave her 300 and briskly caught up with her mother who stormed out of the car toward the hospital.
They inhaled second hand smoke and emissions from vehicles stuck in traffic. Thankfully, after a short distance to the hospital, the rain weakened to a drizzle.
They arrived at the hospital’s radiation oncology center literally sick, wet, tired, very stressed out and angry.
All Oncologists will declare that stress will always be a contributory factor to cancer, and its possible remission. Getting wet under the rain will surely exacerbate their lowered immune systems as well.
TO THE EXECUTIVES OF THE UBER COMPANY, AND TO THEIR DRIVER ANIE AGBAYANI: CANCER IS A TERRIBLE MEDICAL CONDITION.
I WILL NEVER WISH CANCER ON ANYBODY.
BUT IF THE CONDITION OF MY DAUGHTER AND HER MOTHER WORSENS BECAUSE OF THIEIR TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE WITH YOUR COMPANY AND YOUR DRIVER, I WILL DO EVERYTHING IN MY POWER TO BRING YOU DOWN, SUE THE SKIN OFF YOUR BEHINDS AND HAVE YOUR DRIVER ARRESTED AND PUT IN JAIL.
THIS IS A PROMISE.
AND IF YOU REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS INCIDENT, MAY YOU AND YOUR ILK ROT IN HELL.”
