This is INCORRECT. At Dial a Port we all fly the same flag but each porter makes their own prices. We DO NOT port for tips, this is a business. Also mana=time=money. You are actively paying for someone's TIME to port you. Something that is non refundable and is valuable. 50 plat a port will be standard come Velious and EJ/Skyfire are 100 each due to safety and the fact that it is TWO ports. (Potg will be 100 minimum in Velious.)

"Dial A Port" characters are not allowed to set a rate; or at least, they weren't when I was porting. DaP is really the only game in town if you want to make money porting. You could choose to go solo as a porter, but you'll make far less money, and you don't make that much already.

I'll just end this by saying: anyone that thinks 1p per level is an unreasonable sum, consider the reason you want a port in the first place. You're trying to save time. Spend a week taking the boat or running from zone to zone, trying to get to groups you were invited to before they replace you, and ask yourself by the end of that week how much your time is worth.
