Bolt get Nigerian version be that.
Before ur paper expires on Uber u go don dey get warning. And dts why police will never ask Uber/bolt drivers for papers.
Bolt Nigerian version, once you upload for the first time nothing concern them again.
But this your case and @peeps4u might be COVID-19 new developments or App don porous.

I don't believe they use 40 rated trips to calculate rating again sef cos some weeks u don't even do up to 40trips and ur rating would have changed 3times.
Let's assume u do 40trips in a week and all the trips where rated, it is not possible to have 40riders rating u this week for last weeks trips, but lets assume this also happens so where did they get another set of 40 rated trips for the rating to change again the 3rd times.
I have been monitoring this but because I have been doing a lot of trips I ignored it, but last week I did 45trips only but my rating changed 3times. Am not raising alarm cos am still safe but it can be painful and demoralising when ur rating is dropping unexplainably like this. I feel ur pain.

Its easy to get 7 one star ratings out of 40 because most times only negative experience triggers rating and that's not a true picture of ur service delivery.

Uber get sense...a lot of thought went into their business process...they know that new drivers will need more time, experience and exposure to balance and get their rhythm, hence they have 500 trips before they get judgment but Bolt starts from day one to mark new drivers, so on Bolt u can get blocked within the first week of driving. But they both have their advantages and disadvantages sha.
God bless you
In the whole of March I no do reach 60 trips yet my ratings dropped 3 times
Last one was 4.65 last friday and I started smiling and playing with riders to get better ratings I did 12trips on Saturday and 3 trips dis evening (make you and Kanu no go clear all d trips finish come start to dey chup bonus and make me look lazy)
Ratings dropped to 4.62.. I no just talk to last rider after good evening, hello/hi.
My ratings has never ever been dis low...
maybe I will send them a chat too ‘for peace to reign )

I agree with this but I just prefer to take my chances with bolt. Sometimes I make less money than the offline would have given me, other times I make more. Just yesterday, someone wanted to book me on an all day offline trip. Had to ignore his calls so he's not likely to ever call me again.

Thankfully, the money I realised from bolt, no way I would have gotten it from the man.
Bros, how many trips u don do today ? E be like say u don complete all ur 40trips today and bonus starts from tomorrow

Women will price the offline trip like fish and tomatoes till you tire and just say yes I've heard you. I learnt a lesson yesterday and from now on there will be no offline commitments again in festive periods.
This customer booked me since 3 days ago for a trip to abraham adesanya for 5k, since I would love to work on the island I said lemme just use it as destination trip to and fro (5k going in the morning 5k coming back in the evening)
While waiting for her one voice just whispered to me to even check the estimate on my bolt rider app. The outcome moved me close to tears cry
This same thing happened last week,
Suddenly I realized that 3 request came on inDriver from my location and trust fast fingers people rushing them, after 5mins I noticed d request of 3,400 still pending nobody touch am. I offer price 4,200 rider rejected. Na so I offer 3,800 let me close eye since it’s going to yaba from Ajah rider reject, I offer 3,600. Na so Baba accept. Na so I say make I even check google map. Na so I see 2hrs 15mins, say who die?
21mins delay another 13mins delay and on fastest route.
Fortunately for me I no off bolt app na so 1.9x surge enter to ijesha/Surulere. I just switch go bolt beg guy say I no fit come cos time to PU inDriver and bolt na 12mins and 7mins respectively. Bolt 7mins later turn 15mins cos of dt Ajah/addo traffic.
Since then I compare price on bolt before doing fast finger inDriver.
Fear no go gree me tell rider about offline, I will rather dey suggest it to me.
Trip ended 6,200
Though all dis fit be part of my ratings dropping

Dont and I repeat never try to get any car above 2million because repayment is the koko.

Did you know if person con get loan then and buy these cars repair to standard na hot cake by now and you don become car owner be that.

So brother my advice to the young man is that if you fit get tokumbo bolt Uber standard recommended of 100k I'm just saying buy am. Because tommorow is still pregnant.

You'll get scratch, tyre go boast, headlamps will blur, danfo will scratch you, bike delivery go brake your side mirrors these are things to look out for in Lagos especially.

Forget resale value whatever for now. Focus on how to make the payment plans easy and convenient for you and your health.

Young man tommorow is pregnant if you're reading this 3-4m is not a small money oh. Dont believe dashboard earnings that's not statement of account is not visible in bank account just an illusions of you working nioo.

I rest here sad

Below was andman post back in Sept last year tokumbo of Echo was still 1.2m then and na Uber standard
They will not hear,
One person will soon come asking if HP of 3m is good with 30k weekly. Some go to extent of getting loan from micro finance banks to buy car,
I don tire to dey talk.
Cos you will pay loan back through ur nose in 3yrs . And I can tell u for free dt after driving in Lagos for 3yrs you and your car no fit normal, u go don lean and u car self go don hear am.

Bro dont you think its gonna take him 3-4years before repayment.

Even if he use 2020 model of any vehicle, offline is luck for every driver. You know am a living witness. Only cooperate people do cares about cars and they're limited to Uber and not too many.

I've drove 2017 toyota corolla sport full option. But naija people dont freaking care oh they just wanna get to their destination faster and safer.

With any kind of car you're driving, just make sure your suspensions, bushings, leakage is good and also ac should be good too. Let your interior and exterior be classic and neat.

[b]And drive very carefully. I dont think expensive cars are great game changer for this hustle [/b]except if they increase the fare which they will never want to try that for now.

My opinion though.
You said it all, only cooperate or people getting married or occasions will keep u on stand by. But u see olosho geng , na to dey do Snapchat or video in ur car still abuse u for driving slow.

You need to see d way some bridal train girls load my booth with bags and shoes from hotel. Dey no send u at all. Expensive/big cars are not so good for the job.

Rider 2: if u no get call my number
Me: (na to cos scene for here or go pick another surge rider going to my destination)
Okay I will call u incase I no get alert.
R: okay
As I dey go I know say I don enter one chance but I can’t stay out there for police to take me chup.
D rider I rushed to pick na another story (she was high/drunk or na smoke )
Shaa on my way na him one of d guys called dt he forgot his small phone (work phone ) dt I should bring it back now now and he will give me something.
Me: I’m with a rider I can’t turn back

How about food(sweet mouth), data, call card and other monies spent during the course of duty nko? Are they not supposed to be subtracted from gross earning?

Your real Net= Gross- (Commission + fuel + +airtime(data + call) + food + miscellaneous)

Miscelleneous: can include, gauging of your tires, buying of wiper, money given to beggars, securities, police, area boys, lasma, among others.

At the end of every week I carry out a rough calculation of all of these after paying my weekly rent to know how much I made for the week. But I stopped this like a month ago after my partner saw my record booklet inside my pegean hole that my weekly net was about 20k-30k alternatively, 2weeks after guy man called for increase in rentgrin me I just dropped his car for am straight no time. embarassed

This is a car I drove for straight 2-3months without him carrying out a single expenses on the car oh apart from buying 1 tire. Some partners can be very funny shall.

[quote author=deedee44 post=100411462]As for me, I use 3 terms to define my earnings
1. Gross income - Total money made
2. Net income - Total money minus app commissions
3. Profit - Total money minus commission and fuel[ /quote]

Number 3 is d true reflection of your earnings and that’s what I term net. Those days I to say I must net 15k on dashboard, I will burn nothing less than 7k/5k fuel. So d 15k net I see on dashboard is no where close to my pocket. Thank God I wise up

Whichever one u say, u are kwarect...sha be explicit that its Net of commission and fuel.
But generally speaking Net is on dashboard cos u can't prove the fuel u used and again fuel consumption varies from car to car.
No wonder, now I get ur point. If it’s dashboard net then all of us na rich men be dat.
That’s why people are rushing into d hustle, even govt wants there share of it.

Some riders don’t understand ratings at all.
My last rating was 4.72star on Saturday.
Started driving by 6pm today, unfortunately or fortunately two surge trips enter and all trips were back to back, so I remembered my ratings and was asking all of them not to forget to rate me.
I couldn’t check my ratings during pickup or drop off cos it was back to back.
So I dropped dis young guy (teenager) and told him to rate me. And he said okay picked is phone before I could say jack. D guy don drop 1star and thought he was doing me well. My eye don red,
And speechless. So I knew I was in soup.
I picked dis tall fresh yellow girl and I started sweet talking her from start, cos end result na 5star. She was just laughing and gisting. Na so I end trip oya rate me now.
R: sure I will rate you when I get inside
Me: no do it now u might forget
R: no I won’t. okay, but see ur app has hanged. not showing self, will do it later. ( na so bolt app hang, me just dey stammer)
Me: praying app loads
... As ratings just show, na so dis pretty lady (but no brain), carry hand tap 1 star.
Me : nooooo noooo no now
R: why (looking for comment to add)
Me: noooo ahhh
R: (started laughing) why are you shouting now
Me: 5 star is all d star must be 5 and green
R: ohh so sorry (she now gave 5star)
She continued laughing.
Guess my rating now = 4.65*
I just close dey go house, before dem send me to 4.4star geng

How many hours do you drive same as Nnamdi Kanuisagoat ? I will confirm next weekend maybe I’m down playing the car fuel consumption.

Net: is deducting 5k from net earnings on dashboard after app deduction.
