No be small thing today ooooo, so I took this rider from pelican hotel at chevron drive, she put ogba bus/stop as the final destination on getting to the roundabout around that excellence hotel she decides to change her drop off to shonola street, still around ogba though. Getting to her destination she told me to park outside that she’s going in to get money that she needs to get food not far away from my house, after waiting for close to 15minutes I decide to call her but she was busying my call that was when it dawn on me that I’ve been cat-fished. Saw a guy coming out of the house he pointed to me, I asked the guy about the lady he said he doesn’t know anybody like that and he gt me.
I ended the trip and saw 5k, I was about going back into my vehicle when I saw an elderly man inside the compound I approached him and asked after the girl he said he’s the landlord of the house and no one fits that description, then he asked what happened I explained then he told me to follow him.
Apparently, there was a small path beside the Man’s house, he took me there and then we busted out to another house linking another street, that was how the man asked after a girl from one fair lady which I assume was her elder sister, she asked what she was putting on and I explained to her, that’s how the sister shouted her name that she should come and pay her cabman, the denied immediately that it’s not her. So, the man told her to show her face at least to see me. But she no answer na so Baba go up, go meet the mum before I know it one small girl threw 4K for me I told her that my money is 5200 cos she collected 200 to buy gala inside that mad traffic on our way. Na so the girl go inside bring 1k5 three 3h for her. But the girl no show her face at all throughout, I just postrait for the man carry my car close for the day. So many heartlessness in the country. Let’s just be very careful in trusting these riders

And that happens cos my pick up point was just crazy after the lock down as much as I try minimise am each time I refuse to pick or cancelled it goes 4point up so I try to go unfavourable trip but for each cancelled I have to do like 4 upward to correct I cancellation. I complain self to them as my cancellation dey move and they reply and said as much as they understand my plights the system was program that way and nothing much they can do and they understand that not the answer am looking for but sorry. So I try not to cancelled again but riders cancelling cos of pick up time was still also on me and nothing I could do about that one I was yanked out even though no be me cancelled on my way there.

Did you report her? Please do. They will get her suspended or blocked. Save other drivers by reporting her.
My take

Crvrider:


The designers of the app aren't that stupid, they won't let you go below a certain threshold. See image below when you try to put in an amount that is below the standard price range. Now multiply the standard price of 5154 by .20 and you'll see it gives the approximate price of 4125, your net as though it was uber or bolt after taking their commission. For this exact same trip, I did it for 5500.

Like I have said in the past, the only thing that needs to be done is price adjustment when additional time is spent on the trip due to traffic. I believe they will begin to factor all of these when they start to collect their commission.

The creators of indriver knows what they are doing. It is fully understood that the drivers are the engine block of the business, so they allowed a 6months grace of operation without charging commission, and when they eventually start charging commission, it is between 5%-8%. What can a driver ask for.

Modified. Initial image was a wrong one.

Brotherly, one has to make hay while the sun shine. When Taxify started operations 3years ago in their 3 bedroom office at Admiralty Lekki beside forte oil and Tantalizers, I met the top goons of Bolt except Uche. Femi and Nonso were the ones handling the on boarding and training session back then. The treatment we got as driver-partner was exceptional compare to Uber. The pricing, commission, customer service and support was superb, At that time it was an honour to Taxify for drivers to drive on their platform, Account blocks were rare back then except for fraud related issues and major issues with riders. Now things have changed.
inDriver is doing all this to win drivers, No doubt I enjoy using their app. The freedom to skip and choose trips, offer your price and their open rating system is what I like about their app. I am more than 6 months on INDriver. I have not been ask to pay commission. I make average of 4-7k on INDriver daily. With combination of Bolt app totalling 12-15k. Now that INDriver is offering all these benefits, is good one makes good use of it before their policies start changing. They are growing so fast may be because is owned by RUSSIANs. Lagosians are using it in droves now. I am maximizing the use of their app before their policies starts becoming unfavorable. More registration of drivers on their platform will definitely effect change in policies

Ignore these hullabaloo from LASG.

davit:

You may be wrong though. With the traffic situation in Lagos, the app is not helping. I once took a trip on indriver from Agungi area to Magodo. Trip was agreed at 4k. Uber Bolt showed circa 5k. Mind you, we were on that trip for 6 hrs. Now tell me if it would have ended 5k if it was on bolt. Even with the commission, I m sure I would have taken home reasonable amount higher than what agreed on that day.

Tips incase of next time.

1. When you accept a request on a indriver always check your google map to check if there is traffic to riders destination or not before you proceed to their pick up point.

2. when you get to the riders pick up point, your ability to negotiate further comes into play. If there is traffic and U re willing to embark on the trip, try as much as possible to communicate to the rider in a polite manner about traffic situation enroute his or her destination. Asking for additional fare with sense of entitlement will spoil show. Instead make them understand the time estimate of the trip and distance, the loss you would incur if you embark on the trip. Try and use price comparison with other apps. Let the rider know is more expensive on Uber/Bolt. If the rider is not willing to add something reasonable to the fare. You may choose to cancel or not. And don't forget to state reason for cancellation because INDriver also block account like BOLT. This strategy has worked me 90%. Riders always adding something to the fare if there is traffic.

I hope you have Bolt driver account. Now is the time to drive exclusively for Bolt and make more money like Uche from Bolt will always email.

You will not get the Uber account back that's certain even if it's a system error. One of the major reasons accounts are blocked are due to converted offline trips or system assumed converted trips.

Get a Bolt account. Add Indriver. You will need to work extra harder now to gross 10k daily.

I wish you the best.

Kindly ignore. They are speculations by bloggers.
The govt regulation does not have any effect on driver-partners but the app companies that have been failing to comply with the requirements to operate.
Why will uber/bolt be claiming to be remitting tax from the 25%/20% from every trip taken from us all this while? Yet, we are using all the amenities that other road users that pays tax uses.
Its just a pity that we only have a dead govt that go after the innocent drivers instead of dealing with the app companies.
Im only against the approach they are making by impounding driver's cars instead of shutting the app companies they have business with.
Besides, there is no official report from govt to all these speculations that flies around

Apt.

I wasn't moving for the motion to fight against low fare cuz i know we have little or no say on the price mechanism but this case LAG government is bringing on us, we have to stand up and fight this together.

I feel if the government wants to impose any tax on us, they should do that directly to the app companies cuz they are already making money off us and they are the ones liable to pay tax, they claimed we are partners, fine, so how come we are to pay tax individually when we have a corporate body that binded us together.

The operational license fee imposed on the ride sharing company is reasonable and justifiable, the 25m operational licence shouldn't be there problem,
The 10m annual renewal of the operational license(Taxation) shouldn't be a problem for the company either, they make more from us annually so paying 10m isn't a big deal for them.

What we can't condone is the 10% on every service render to customers, maybe the government doesn't know that the 25m operational license and the annual renewal of 10m would be borne by us through the commission this app companies deduct from every service we render and they still want to deduct separately another 10%.

My message to His Excellency, Babajide Sanwo'olu is to reconsider this enforcement and ensure all taxation is directly imposed on the companies and not the individual drivers, because all the revenue this companies are making is directly coming from us and if any tax is to be levied on us, it should be directed to the body that binded us...

Has anyone though about the possibility that the new policy is actually something that Uber will like (and possibly engineered by UBER).

Come to think of it, if only cars not older than 3 years after the year of manufacture are allowed, who will be on the road?

MOOVE - oldest car on Moove are 3 years old (2017 models), seems like a funny coincidence https://www.moove.africa/#explore-cars

It gives Uber the opportunity to recover the market share they lost to Bolt, while bolt drivers will be open to harassment from taskforce people.

The 20million per year isn't much when you consider the fact that UBER takes 25% of gross earning. for every N100,000 you make, Uber takes N25,000 and have probably 10s of thousands of drivers on their platform.

My piece of advice - look for at least a supplementary hussle or have a plan to keep out of the business while the market finds a new balance post-August 20th.

LASG treatment of Gokada is a foretelling that the government largely isn't concerned about public opinion when they have something in mind to do.

It is also a charge that Lagosians need to be more involved in elections because the government is largely comfortable as it has held power since 1999 and doesn't have to necessarily give a dam about what the public thinks (Lagos voter participation is less than 25% of registered voters)
