A crank caller was arrested after dialling 999 to complain about being overcharged by a taxi driver.
The hoaxer, who made a second call pretending he was going to set himself alight, was fined £80 after two police cars, an ambulance and a fire engine were sent to his home.
The 23-year-old from Gloucestershire can be heard on the voice log making an official complaint that he had been charged "40 quid to travel seven miles in a taxi".
