Guys how do you target riders in mm1 and mm2 Airport.. I saw enuf cars clamped down thus week.. How can one be safe while taking requests and picking riders.. Cos it doesn't make sense paying 400 parking fee to carry a rider paying 1200..

Drive past the airport, ensure you have been placed on the queue. Then enter Ajao Estate and enter the street immediately after CPM and park. You will still be on queue; meanwhile, nobody will disturb you on that street. Once you get a ride request, call your rider - tell him/her you will be with him/her in 10 minutes. Drive out of Ajao Estate and turn at DHL towards airport.

Your rider will be billed #400=00 parking fee, and #200=00 airport toll

From CPM to Airport is 5.5km, you can enter traffic. Just let go of the 400, Uber will reimburse you.

I guess many drivers have not checked their e-mail hence this question.
����

have you ever waited at the airport only to get a trip that didn’t pay off? We know it can be frustrating, so we’re improving the airport experience to help you get the most out of your time.

Now if you get a short-distance trip* from Murtala Muhammed International Airport, we'll hold your spot in the queue for 6 hours, so that you can return to the same airport and get another trip quickly. If a trip is eligible for short trip protection, we'll let you know in the app before you accept the trip.

Short Trip: We'll hold your spot for the next 6 hours

*To be eligible for short trip protection, you must be waiting in an airport queue for at least 15 minutes. Short trip protection is valid for 6 hours at the same airport and remains in place even if you go offline or do other trips before returning to the airport’s queue. Airport short trip protection distance radius is subject to change.

True, I agree with you.
Personally, I go into Ajao Estate because, apart from waiting for airport trips alone, I can get other trips from surrounding areas - Isolo, Oke Afa, Ago Palace, Okota - usually on surge; + I get to walk around, stretch my legs and get something to eat. You can't do all these in airport area.

As per traffic, 15 minutes max, you will be there - international, local or mma2; but it's always good to call the rider and let him/her know. It's surge, most will be grateful they even have a car to wait for at all

Guys, what do you think of this new promo abi deception from Uber, since they started this stuff below, I noticed that surges have reduced, before now, they was almost constant surge of 1.4-2 0 at Ikate, Chevron axis, but no more.
Taxify is still 2ay better, they have since started assigning trips to me again,
TIP OF THE WEEK,
Get a cheap smart phone, install taxify and if it remains one ride to chop promo and e no gree come, request yourself, go for short trip and end it and go home or receive Uber ride if it arrives first......but be smart about that, not always.
if u request urself and the surname or number tally, taxify go block u and u go visit their office by force

Now I understand Ubers crazy rating and cancellation. My cancellation rate was 6% last week and because I've not driven on Uber this week, it jumped to 10%. This sucks.
Now I've learnt to ask riders for rating,after three guys rated me low.

The first was from one small boy who was so concious of how much the trip will cost and unfortunately for him, roads were blocked that day and alternative routes prolonged the ride, I gave him 5 and he gave me 1

Second case, a lady, she was to be picked up at an event centre at Ikeja, the said centre was behind another one off billings way, and the map kept pointing to the 'wrong event place, I arrived and saw other drivers trying to make out the correct place and street urchins started demanding for 500 parking space. In the melee, I mistakenly clicked start trip. The lady found out and I told her we'll sort it out since its a cash trip and she requested I cancel which I did and she wa charged, leading to a report and 1 star. I gave uber my story and they accepted telling me that my rate has improved, but nothing changed.

Third guy was a pathetic case. I picked him from his office at lekki, close to Ikate gate, dude was smelling as skunk, probably no deodorant and the map clearly showed we should follow Ozumba Mbadiwe because of the mad traffic at Admiralty and Lekki link bridge, I also asked him his preferred route and he said I should go ahead.
Even the AC no cool his stench. As we neared yaba,and he saw the traffic he started complaining, that I should have followed the link bridge, next he complained about the air freshner after dirtying my car with coke and two galas. I felt like slapping him, by this time his stench coupled with the coke and gala was unbearable and he wound down the window and I offed the AC. Long story, he cut the trip, got down and took bike and gave me 1 leading to this low rating.
I ve seen worst, riders ain’t easy to deal with, just pray for good riders daily, because Dey can take dis job away from you. Taxify would ve blocked you, for 4.21 rating, till you visit office, was blocked at 4.38. I was like wtf buh couldn’t do anything. Now I just play dumb even when I knw there wrong and apologize, buh in my mind, no worry ur self. grin grin grin

Live feed, picked this rider from Phase 1 to Mega chicken, when we got to mega chicken, am like can I end the trip he said, angrily he said if I want to I should end it, so I knew he doesn’t want me to end it, kept quiet the lady he came to block, came out, she entered the car, I wanted to move, he said I shouldn’t that he just wants to talk to her then we can go, I gave them space by coming down from the car, m now beside the car waiting for them to finish talking, it’s over 30min, just met him again he said 5 more minutes. Don’t want to get angry and end the trip, cos if I do that’s bad ratings 4 sure.

Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by nameo: 7:36pm On Apr 18, 2018
Kalanick:


Nameo,

For experienced drivers ask why they left their previous partners and if possible get the phone number of their previous partners to confirm the reason that the experinced driver will give on why they left.

For new drivers test their driving skills, scope and knowledge on both Uber/Taxify platform and also ask about their strategy daily to meet up to weekly rental.

With this you will know.

Got further questions let me know?




Thanks, much guy.

If you can drop your contact, email or WhatsApp, will appreciate cos woukd like to ask some questions about the business once am done with getting the car.

Thanks, again....

I've parked there before and got taxify request, I gave the rider my ETA and made sure he was okay with it before even starting my engine. Riders are not gods, all it takes is a simple communication and little understanding. I went as far as letting the rider know I didn't have money for car park and he agreed to pay and deduct from his fare. At the end of the trip he still gave me a tip of N500. Though yeye taxify didn't include parking fee in the total fare, I just used the tip to cover up

In Ghana I dunno but in Nigeria, the question should be.. how much should a driver compensate you for giving him your car to drive for maybe 10 hours a day 6 days a week?
IMO driver can compensate you with 100k-120k

If you like tell them to go with money, rider that will rate you low will still rate you low. Just always be yourself. I won’t drink from a dirty water cos am thirsty. Never!

1. Pls if you go to Taxify office don’t park for Ebeano supermarket I repeat. It was a bad experience yesterday and I will explain what happened later tonight.

2. Don’t let any rider tell you to do fast furious cos he/she is late for a rubbish meeting. My experience today was somehow and i almost dropped them off on 3rd mainland bridge. Have done it before and I will do it again if needs be.

Enjoy fam!
