Only work Saturday and Sunday,so I really avoid hold up, peace

You for talk this one before na! Weekend is different. Even the Almighty cheerful makes 40k a day, that's 240 in 6 days.

Spaxon:
I too chase, but its all about confidence

Off course, I'm not ruling out confidence.
Men don't usually turn down women who woo them. It seldom happen. I don't think I've ever been wooed by a woman

pope191:
Boss healthy argument nor bad… sholly go confirm in those days. Take ride to vi in the morning and sleep there. It is necessary to drive to lekki to get trip. My ignorance days, I’ll take trip to Maryland or ikeja, trust me, I’ll sleep there for hours, some days 4 hours. Including Ikorodu. Our normal routine then was to get to lekki and go position at Enyo Ikate, any trip from chev or phase 1 is ours. It’s now you can stay anywhere to get trip. I was at lekki on Saturday, I saw everything. Give price if you have the mind too. That experience avoid island yesterday. Island can make one have boring weekend at times. You’ll be having good day on the Island, a drive to island will be a big blunder.

Bro I remember those days wella! Early mormor, drivers go carry passengers for bus stops for #200 per head, just to get to lekki and start hustle. Moreover, there are times you even drive home empty when U close. U go wait taya, U no go see trip towards home. The fuel wey U use no pass 2k?

Omo, make we leave this argument abeg!

Pearl1910:
Na u go ask am na. I don't doubt him so why will I ask?

Barbiturate said he drove 17mins to pick up.
Even if I drive a Kia Picanto or Toyota Starlet, I can never drive 17mins to a pickup of normal fare, except it's long trip on surge or 10k from Lekki to yaba, where I know my cost has been covered already. Imagine doing this just 4times a day, with Toyota Muscle, how ur fuel no go finish before u make good money? 17mins is a trip of 2k on its own.

I am not someone who likes to argue much, but let me clear you on the above. Once in a while when you stay tooo long at a point due to fastest fingers or shortage of orders, you tend to pick "anyhow" so you can leave that point. It isn't what you do daily or often. I had stayed at that point for more than 1 hour. I couldn't take it anymore. I angrily took it, so as to leave that point. After dropping the rider, other rides started coming normal with short PU time. This is far different from the crux though. You said you used 24k to make 120k. This is what we question. I think U should make your points and explanations based on the main issue, not beating about the bush, and raising issues not related.

Nuf respect

Pearl1910:
Na so.
Oil dey your head, u go better school

So if u use Muscle and 12k gives u 35k on Indrive why is it a big deal believing with my corolla I can make 50-60k on Bolt with my 12k fuel?

Pope no dey use muscle na! He makes 40k and he's very hard working!

We need to have about 10 drivers here using corolla on bolt, to confirm to us that they make 60k with 12k fuel
No be new monikers o!

Spaxon:
Just woo them

It's not like that! You won't understand cos you're a woman. You don't do the chase.

The chase comes with a whole lot of thoughts:
If I woo her, will she respond nicely or will she embarrass me openly? Will she just ignore me? Will she snub me? If she embarrasses me openly, how will I take it? It will bruise my ego. It will affect me that moment.

You've gat to take a calculated move. How do i get out of the scene immediately? Etc!

Omoapena:
Pilots
I have a question
Before the fuel hike, 5k worth of fuel will gross you 25k
But now, with the little increment in fare, can 5k worth of fuel now still gross you 25k?


Remember 5k now is 10litres and 5k before was 27litres....

Pls, I have my reasons for asking this and I want pilots to confirm by filling there car 5k worth of fuel and see if it will gross 25k...

If 12k fuel fetches me 35k
5k fuel will fetch me ??X
(35 X 5)/12 = 14k

5k should fetch me about 14k now

pope191:
I use civic not corolla. 24k fill my tank. I did something today and notice 15k could not fill 30L gallon. Maybe oando berger has tampered with their meter. Full tank doesn't give me more than 80k. Somethings it not like that self.

They tampered with the metre.

So 12k(half tank) will fetch you 40k. You should have a net of about 24k. This is what is obtainable.

pope191:
I was just reading the insults and curse they were placing on each other. One even went as far as saying their tyre go burst on 3MB. Trip scarce for phase 1 yesterday, I saw shege. The fastest finger no be here.

I was there bro. I carry vex pick 6400 from chevron to Igbobi on indrive. I drove about 17 mins to PU. I was like; instead make I dey here for long make these smallies dey take agba eye see shege, I'd rather pick nonsense and gerout. Meanwhile we reach like 6 or so, wey bid for am.

2ndly, I guess you use corolla. You should know how much you make with your full tank, if you work well(hard)
It is that, which you make, that is feasible!

For me, I use Camry and 12k(half tank) will fetch me 35k. Nobody fit call dog monkey for me! I don't believe everything here.

I don't understand how someone can forget wedding ring on a car seat! Did the person remove it and dropped on the seat Abi it fell from his finger? Me I don't know the particular rider it belongs to and I can't be calling people anyhow.

On a second thought......Abi na jazz?

pope191:
Yakoyo around sabo but it's 195/65/r15

Ok for now....

Abeg where is yakoyo in sabo?

pope191:
Just bought 3 tyres 7k each, tho it is supposed to be 7500. As much as I know it is not easy, but I think we should cut cost as much as possible.

Where U buy them? Are they ok?

Muhammadson2020:
Forget new one. There are correct tokunbo tyres that can serve you for 2 years ear, even if you dey drive woro si woro

How much will 1 cost?

ReadaDream:
My tire actually cost #7500 205/60/R16. One just have to find a way to adapt, fuel price is not going down anytime soon. You either accept the reality or change hustle.

Bro where U dey buy tyre 7500?

Just imagine! After about 12 mins drive to pick up. Deborah say na mistake

6 mins for 2600

Welz:
this new rida app is nonsense, you won't even see the trip but you will receive notification of trip cancelled, all the trips there are 1500 or 2000. To log out na war. I entered indrive fear catch me, drivers no dey even allow trip land before them accept the ridiculous price. 2000 from ikoyi to ogudu? at 488 per litre? gilthronix how una dey do am ?

It is the "nonsense price picking" fastest finger drivers that infiltrated Rida. Though at times Rida gives me very good rides.
28 mins for 5200

pope191:
I don't see it in that light. Drivers are their problem. Bolt has increase price to some worth. Riders do compare before booking, but drivers will still pick nonsense on Indrive. I just got to old Yaba road from VI. Drivers were picking 3500, 3700 at peak period. Remind me of Bolt days before the birth of Indrive. By this time V. island will be on full tomatoes. Drivers will be rushing from Lekki to partake in the glory

Those guys picking nonsense are island guys who want to quick go back to island. They are really spoiling work for some of us. I came out 9:30am and was hoping to go to the Island. I was in my car from that time till 11:30am, I just decided to go eat. They do fastest fingers and they pick nonsense. They've also infiltrated Rida. Imagine an hour trip to island for 3k! Not like I don't know how to pick very fast, but I can't be calling you and explaining the need to increase price, or begging for increment or to renegotiate.

pope191:
I think the opay and kuda options are better.

Yeah....I've opened opay and I've paid the commission.

CheerfulGiver:
create an opay account and use the virtual card option. Input virtual card details on indrive. Only send money to the account when you need to pay indrive

Thanks. I guess I'll take this option

Glithronix:
But na the card I don dey use from the beginning and no issue at all.
Why you come dey fear, baba?
You can even delete the card anytime you want.
Much respect, boss.

E get when pope complain say dem dey deduct him money anyhow from acct. I dey avoid such!

pope191:
Register your card. Put the money and delete your details immediately after payment

Thanks Bro. So this is what I'll be doing anytime I want to put money there. Register card, load money, delete card

Who else has been finding it hard to pay commission on Indrive via transfer? Since on Saturday. Reported to their support, but they are not useful. They want drivers to register their cards on their platform. No be me! I'd rather continue with Rida than register my card!

Kaymaxi2222:
sincerely this has never happened to me before as I myself I be Kala man but that day I don't know why I actually go against one of my principles.....I know I am paying for it already sha but help me disturb dem with calls abeg

Don't blame yourself bro. Just learn from it and move on fast. Don't let it affect your work. Just report them to the App. Even gurus dey fall once once!

Dropped this guy at banana Island from around Maryland, and up till date that number has been switched off. He actually did the transfer in my presence, but I never got the alert. This was during the time banks had issues with their network....the naira scarcity time.

Jibwillz:
Even me wey never join the hussle sef knows that I can’t trust anybody to send my money later. I’ll create a scene if I have to. But won’t leave without my money.

Start the hustle first na!

I don't know why someone will be this petty!
All because you want to prove a point on a faceless forum!


A lot of people here don't know each other real life, so why all the stress to prove unnecessary point? Just why?

Beats my imagination mhen!

Pearl1910:
She must be mad; she requested, saw the price difference and still went ahead, u proposed price and she accepted. Then u drove and came down only for her to say she wanted to go with the Bolt that was cheaper.
She will also see disappointment on that her trip.

I just taya for some riders. I didn't propose price though, I accepted her price. I don't know why they would order 2 rides at the same time! They just make U waste fuel, time and energy. She even had the mind to call the other driver "tout"
Some of them don't even know that some of us(drivers) are masters degree holders and also married.

About 2 nights ago, I was already on the mainland looking for a trip to meet my target. This girl ordered from Mcneil Rd. Got there and immediately saw another guy parked behind me. I called her and she said she was coming out. She called me after some minutes and said she would be going with someone else, who's cheaper. It was 2k trip. She said the other guy was 1500. I just went to the other guy, explained to him and begged him to cancel. He cancelled and we both drove off.

These girls don't even care at all. Even when you call before going, they would still cancel when you get there. One of the disadvantages of this hustle in Nigeria. I don't think it's like that in USA or Canada. There should be penalty for unnecessary cancellations. Why would you tell me to come and then you cancel when I get there....after about 10 mins driving, that's pure wickedness!

obinoral1179:
osapa to MM2 for 5k on bolt sir it's not possible..... Not even possible you should check bolt recent app now.. from ajao to inside ojodu Berger was #6300 without surge without crossing the 3mb...

That's what she told me though. I don't know if it was due to promo. The estate is opposite ookshore gallery

okey4reel:
Omoh this Rida updated app na crap, they should just reverse it to the previous one, their fares also are so ridiculous, u go dey see trip of almost one hour and #2500 as the fare, some people get mind for this country

Some fares used to be very cheap even in the former Rida App. Just ignore the cheap ones. I took a lady from osapa to MM2 for 7600 on Rida. About an hour ride. On our way, she got a call from another driver.....apparently she ordered 2. So she asked which App is mine, I said Rida. She shouted "Nooo Na" I asked what happened, she said she was supposed to follow the other driver on bolt, that it was cheaper...btw 4 to 5k. She said she didn't check before entering. I just ignored her and continued.

The problem with the new Rida App is that they restrict the fare bid for drivers.
Secondly, the new app doesn't show time to pick up. It only shows km or m.

It's worse when covered with flood. Passed there on Thursday night and unknowingly entered the ditch

GeneralZodd:
Even if is 70 litres you claimed it to be

Do the maths Bro

#490/per litre X 70litres = ?

Give me the answer

I don't need to do any maths. I'm just checking how U used about 38k @ 490.

For my car, that's what I buy. Infact I buy 12k and it's half tank and I use it for a day. So full tank should be about 24/25.
