Hmm...this is tricky. I will inform the OKT about that whenever i see that ojek tho,citing to OKT/s that he's going to bring down their businesses eventually,becos everyone's gonna be wary of this "ojek" guy.
Meaning with that ojek around,price will be higher.

Yes,i guess thats the only solution in your case.
I am going to remind all my friends who didnt go to booking joints with a driver to SPECIALLY mention that they have no driver or ojek with them and also tell the OKTs that...
"i hear from my friend that there's ALWAYS an ojek who pretend to be our driver/ojek to collect our commission, making booking price goes higher, just outside your shop, is it? "
Thanks for informing.

From Harbour Bay to Gideon,if you go to Harbour Bay taxi stand just outside the Departure/Arrival entrance near Harbour Mart,it will cost you about 60k rupiah to 70k rupiah.
1.5 min walk away from the Hall outside Horizon ticket office,it will cost you about 50k rupiah.
Prices stated above were before bargaining. My friend were still able to get 40k rupiah outside Horizon ticket office with a little bargain (during Aug 2017). Hehehe...for 30k rupiah,i think i might need to put in lots of effort during the bargaining ,i can call a 30k taxi fare from Harbour Bay rare today.
Today, I take the hotel's shuttle taxi service,its FREE (free for 2 way),even if i have friends with me...hehehe...tested in all my 2017 Batam trips over the last 6 months.
(
note : this privilege doesnt apply to everyone tho)
