7...when riders in a long run decovers that Taxify just systematically increased their fare...I trust Nigerians...they go gbagie... becos the Taxify lite Wld then be hard to get With Long ETA
8...the Taxify rider app is designed in sure a way that riders can easily book trip without knowing their estimate...unlike uber about 85%-95% wld see their estimate bfor booking. it's not as easy as Taxify is to book a trip without destination....I know for sure pple book more trips on Taxify without destination than uber....

My analysis of the new category ish is that....Taxify did not get it right for this 1....here are my points
1...while some drivers are smiling now some are very sad....from short findings Taxify lite struggles for request
2...Taxify light drivers wld definitely be concentrating on uber more...those on only Taxify Wed try and join d uber train.
3....4 now most riders have not figured it out yet by the time they do m sure most of the drivers Wld have blended more in uber...thereby making it hard to get a Taxify lite is which is supposed to be the cheaper fare option...drivers are complaining now and am sure there are looking for alternatives....
5. Partners wld soon stop buying those Taxify lite category cars....because there is more money in the base Taxify...
6... drivers wld soon start to reject or renegotiate rentals for cars 2004 below....

dyemida:
2005 and above, Taxify. 2004 and below taxify lite.

OK thanks....I have very strong feeling Uber would gain more from this category sh*t...on the other hand I don't think Taxify did their home work well....wat is d difference BTW a 2004/2005 corolla?? Dunno ooo....I don't see no difference...for a trip of 11km 20mins...for Taxify lite let's say 2004 corolla, riders get to pay approximately 1100. If u do the maths using their parameters for the same trip on the new regular Taxify. With corolla 2005..riders get to pay approximately 1400....that's like 300naira difference....it won't take time bfor Nigerians figure it out

dyemida:
Thanks boss. Please, Since when have you had the savings account as your payment account? And is it not that access bank offers dual account types on a single account? Like the account can serve as both savings and current accounts?

Seems they want their app always active. Giving the drivers lesser chance to use other apps just like taxify does too with their promotions. And some people feel they know it all but fail to understand that it has not happened to them or they didn't notice things that need attention

bfor I went offline like almost 2months now I remembered my last uber request I cancelled it 6days after been offline I had 100 % cancellation that was becos by then my 7days circle had gone round to the point that my only request was 1 and I cancelled it which makes sense perfectly....but now having not driven for months it is 0%. Bro

bros seems it's still day same old way of calculating oooo....7days continuous circle Weda u drive a in a day or not provided u drove and cancelled trips wetin 7days I wld still rise or drop

Greetings.....it's been a while......been on hiatus for a while now and off the flatform.....abeg what's new.....people still day make better money so....I heard Taxify is now lite and hard....

4 taxify trips surge 1.9 back to back....explaining fare to riders wasn't easy

dru23:
Sure bro my email is seeubermumu@gohangself.com

All small letters

I just posted a munched screen of my last trip although it clearly showed toll fare inclusive there is nothing there to differentiate it from other trip calculation if toll wasn't there

On another note...some drivers hav cultivated a fraudulent practice...of showing riders munched screen from previous trips so as to collect more money....pls if u are involved in such you hav to stop it it wld cash up with you...this happened to my sister recently and I have decide to fight d driver to the core I have given him 24hrs grace to do d needful or I will publish his detail everywhere and take him to taxify.. she complained that she took taxify from Ago to festac and at d end of d trip the driver showed her 2700 and she was shocked but ended paying .....I checked her trip history only to see 1300 there, called the driver, he said it was taxify that charged her...I then requested for a munched screen of the trip history so as to end d issue if I see 2700 there cos we had sent the trip history from her own fone to him to see....but he is asking me why should he send it... why munch a screen of past trip and show riders...it is disgraceful

We can motivate each other on to greater things. I joined this this solely because of what I read here, unfortunately I have been making excuses for myself of how I can only achieve an average of 60k per week after commission for past 10weeks.

Not until last week I saw earnings @ daveonoja and @ifeanyimark post that I told myself I have been sleeping on bicycle. Lol

Summary
Earnings after commission : 109k
Offline and perks : 4k
Tolls : 5k

Vehicle Fueling analysis:
Vehicle: 406 Manual
Fueling : 27k
Total net income : 109k+4k minus 5k =108k
Minus bonuses of 18k = 90k
So it took 27k fuel to get 90k Actually Income.
Therefore we can say that for every 1k fuel purchased I will make 3k plus as Actually Income (Net income minus tolls).
This analysis has been constant on my Peugeot 406 for the past 8 weeks. First Two weeks were a case of jjc who didn't know ANYWHERE in Lagos.

Let us have your analysis on actual income for fuel to car analysis

Let somebody out there be encouraged. You can do it.

Holla @romeo the only guy here I have met in person and all who have made this thread great.

If you see a red wine colour 406 with NBA sticker on windshield [/i]Na me be dat. If you dey enter elegushi for night u fit corner me dia some nights.[i]

The sacrifice to make more money on the road is a story for another day. Meanwhile make more money and put more vehicles on road to stabilise income.

Thanks

that's the spirit ...keep up d hussle bro

Carshopper:
So I have been wondering how drivers work and can't meet up rental payments within right time.

Most drivers I have encountered always work 2-3days in the new week to meet up last week payment.

they day embezzle the money be that..

Chuwaa:
Abeg share with us what transpired between you and the rider.

as far as I can remember I picked up a lady from shoprite surulere.....so she came with some items she bought including microwave...and few other stuffs..she told the guys that helped her carry her stuffs to my car to put them in d back seat....calmly I said no please...in the boot..she then asked why...I simply said because the seat is meant for seating..she didn't say anything...till d trip started she now said..."Driver I don't like the way u spoke to me , that Iam very rude...are u trying to tell me I don't know what d seat is meant for or u r mocking me"...I said no ma..sorry if you found that offensive...I just don't get it why pple wld want to put load on the car seat when there is a boot....till we reach drop off....dead silence in the car.....when she came out of the car, the way she slammed my door I just tire.

So I say make taxify small as 4pm don do only to see this...na wa ooo.. unto the next...uber...protaxi...no dulling

protocol:
stop night work.90% of people u pick in d night are idiots. Start early close early

bros I disagree with you on this...I have had so many nyt trips and no issue ever....1 ish doesn't make the rest pple that move in the nyt Idiots

GAZZUZZ:
Hazards of the business.

As a rule I always ask customers to re-check if the left anything in the back seat.

A rider forgot a bunch of keys in the back of my vehicle,
when I was in lekki, and called when I was in ogba, i said she will pay for trip, both ways or I will drop the keys in uber office.

I do it but probably 75% I forget sometimes...

Omo see wahala oooo were I no know anything about....picked up a rider from a lounge in VI to Lekki 11pm Thursday on a card trip...got to d drop off ended d trip...almost immediately another request came in..from nearby the rider ended up telling me to cancel d trip...did a few trips and closed for d day...this morning around 8am got à call apperently from d same rider that she has been calling and i hav refused to pick that i only picked because she used another no...buttomline is that she said she forgot her wallet in my car and she had some foreign currency inside I was shocked when she started raining insults on me that I am...a thief meanwhile I never saw any wallet in the car to the best of my knowledge...she don call her brother to call me, him too don call me and they threaten me say he wld make sure I dont drive taxify again and that he knows Uche very well, also that he wld post my pics allover social media...meanwhile I record the call with all d threat...so am considering opening up a case against...the rider....but I want to inform taxify first...she claimed to have forgotten her wallet in my car around past 11pm...after drop off...I didn't see any call or message from that time till yesterday evening when she said she called and I didn't pick plus an SMS 9pm yesterday which I only read when she told me she sent SMS...any reasonable advice from d forum is welcome
