Guys, Pope191 when do I qualify to set destination on Uber?

I don't think you have to qualify to do that, Uber is just not good with setting destination once its 5pm or you are in a busy area.

Las Las indriver will shake the table. Most people take them cos of the set price. A rider said even though I know the hold up will hold us me topping the fair makes it easy on both of us. I top with what I have you take cos it a set fair aggrement so it like a tip or bonus. I laugh tire. Las Las no no more than the usual hold up and yet she add 500 with smile. I smile too take am.
That's the point I was trying to make the other day, it's only someone without conscience to insist on not adding something to the agreed fare if there more than the usual traffic.

I don't think the scratch or spare tyre could be a problem provided the scratch is minimal.
I passed uber inspection twice and my car has a dent on the rear bumper and some scratches. Spare tyre was not checked

Thanks. hopefully I will get it done on monday.

Tap d search icon on the right side of ur phone and input the destination you want, follow the procedures. It won't return as error if it work, just close the app and relunch it again, but if it returns as error, it means you can't set trip at that particular point in time.

Well somethins U need to learn dat some areas is mere luck to get a destination trip.

Secondly once U see Dat for an Hour no request (atleast around OGba to Anthony that U moved,) restart your phone.

Again, ur phone was hot and battery drained Guess U need a good car charger( Original Verizon or New age) goes for like 2k- 3.5K depending on d shop and area.

Lastly do not be discouraged, U just need to know d.movement.

Next Tym If U leave IJu, leave ur app on and drive towards OGBa, select trip as dey come and take d one going towards Ikeja, Berger, Surulere, VI, Lekki.



Lastly BOLT Algorithm is somehow very good wit destination, wen U set Surulere, any trip going to d island will not come to U... To be on d safer side set Lekki phase 2 or 1 so dat worst case scenario might be a Surulere.

Cheers on ur next move!!!

1. Get and phone hanger(#500) and hang your phone on one of your AC vents.

2. Get a car charger. (<#1,500).

What phone are you using?

Eiyahhh...Sorry grin

Now, the job is not just about to drive...You have to think and determine where riders would be at any given time

In the mornings on weekdays, where would people be most likely be going to?
Work right?

So this means you should target residential areas, and not Mega Chicken or Tantalizers..Since Uber is not a service for all and Sundry, you can target Specific residential areas or estates...

I know they have some estates in Agege.. There's Kayode Williams (Kay farms)estate off Fagba, LSDPC and some others...You can position there.

In the evenings too, you interchange the method...Target work areas, eateries and others... People will be going home then

Just read up here sha. Some drivers here will help you
