Obviously we were referring to taxis who WILL use a meter, not those who have one and won't use it.
I've only ever had problems with taxis refusing to use the meter on two occasions.
Once outside Bintang supermarket, the Ngurah Rai taxis wouldn't use them, so we just walked out to the street and got one.
And another night in Tuban, wanting a taxi back to Legian after dinner, ALL THREE Bluebird taxis we approached refused to turn on the meter. We ended up in some other random taxi who used the meter with no problem, and was tipped well for his efforts.
