The lady wanted to play a fast one on you grin. BTW, where can we subscribe for the full episode? Asking for Felicity001 not 0001 o? cool
pope191:
Took out time to read it and I'll have to be a bit insensitive on this. I won't hold e hailing companies responsible for this outside them making their service better by having more info about riders, but we all know where we live, folks will work over night to beat the system, another company with less info will come up at a cheap price and it's the same drivers that will run to such app at a flash of no commission and bonus.

Check Indriver for instance, it's just the driver and the rider. On Thursday, I went physical on a rider for the first time. Got a trip from omole to Olateju ard mushin for 2500 on Indriver. On getting to Kayode street around Onipanu, she asked where am I going? Got confused and replied, to your destination off course. There she goes, no! She's going to Isolo, Jakande area. Hmmm! I pull over and try to understand her better, show her the app and tell her to check what she input as destination. All fell to deaf ear, she put the blame on us in quote and why he never liked the app after doing 108 trips. I try to explain to her, I don't work for Indriver, we r both using their services, she as a rider and me as a driver, story. What can we do? I ask her to be reasonable as I am willing to be as well, nonetheless I don't like going to Isolo, but I'm left with no option here. She said she can't add more than 500 naira to the trip and I gently ask her to drop her off, so she can book another ride. This girl refused, showed her my gas level and why I can't accept 500, cos I just can't shortchanged myself for nothing, and she did the worst by saying that's not her business. I off the ignition and we both went head sprung, inside the car for like 20 mins pressing our phones, she start making calls about her last night parole and her commission from other girls. She crossed the line the moment she put her leg on the dashboard. Babe remove you leg, she refused with the excuse of not being comfortable with her sitting position. Madam you are not the one cleaning my car, remove ur leg from my dashboard as I won't take that lightly with you, but she refused. Took her leg off it, she return it, took it off it again cheesy she put her on it again, I hit the leg off the dashboard and the ruse ignite. Blah! Blah!! Nah driver work u go do d*e, una dey always jealous us cos of the money we deh make grin gosh! I ask, why I go jealous olosho? Nah u sabi, I even get hair shop. Then I knew this is going deep, told her I have to drive to the next police station and she replied make we dey go, make we see who get money to bribe police pass. As I start the car and about to move, I took my phone and put it on record. Next, she try to go on live instagram, grabbed her phone from her and ask if it's her father she went to trend with by taking me to social media this morning. Then she start screaming Ole! Ole!! Ole!!! Uber driver want to kill her... people gathered grin subscribe for the episode


Back to drivers: night ride is free and sweat, but avoid it as much as possible, be grateful for the little you can make and stop this rat race of 1 million, it has lead many people to their doom. No one is immune to attack, but we too should not expose ourselves like our body is made of steel. Crazy how we start off work by 6am and still on the road by 9pm, doing what precisely? Even danfo drivers has call it a day. Brother's use your head, no one really cares about you in this game, let your conscience and your God be your guide (I've said this over and over again). Thank God for the covid break, I don't go beyond 70/100k in a week and what is mine is mine, so satisfactory. Shollywendy I hail, anything wey make 3pm meet u for road, get reason grin

Beside if we must do late night, focus on one lady, lately I don't like picking guys, not to talk of having 2 guys with me in the middle of the night

This same thing happened to me when I was invited by a lady to fountain of life church's crossover service.

Pastor Taiwo say everyone should begin praying in tongues, Omo! Na party scatter oo, whether na curse sef i don't know, I was just mute, till dey announced that if you don't know how to pray in tongues please come to the altar, na so this girl push me go oo.

Getting to the altar different pastors were in charge and when it was my turn he asked if I was born again, I said no, he asked if I would like to be, told him I'm not sure. Baba proceeded to ask me to repeat some words after him which I did, after the recitation, Baba hold my head, blow breeze and said I should start speaking in tongues, omo I bow my head, smiled and started saying names of football clubs in Czech Republic Poland and Lithuania. Next thing baba said was that I know you don't understand what you're saying right now, but when you've joined a ministry we'll cultivate it for you.

Carrying 4 guys at night to shrine. That's dangerous bro. Other time, I decline immediately you see them.
Felicity0001:
This is to tell you that Nigeria will never be good again...

Just imagine they block me even with 4.53 rating.

My commission to bolt last week was over 35k

Rider gave me 1k and her change was 2h but I'd only 100box I told her to do tf she no gree... She collected the 100box... I no say na 1star and am...

Another one, I got a request at olowora last night around 10pm, 4guys going to shrine as them enter I start trip na so I activate my hoodlum driving mood... See speed.


The one sitting directly behind me started shouting speaking yoruba... Ha! Which kind speed be this, stop stop stop... Let's get down... Ha watin!!! The one in front was enjoying it saying wow! See how Benz dey move...

3 behind don dey shout already... Na so me I pull over them jump out I report rider didn't pay... I know say na 1 star trip.


I guess i was bad market for them.

I got home to see the message of account blocked for 7days.

Very well correct about the rating part.
Felicity0001:
No mind them... That part the Bolt app says. "Your driver is outside waiting" is responsible for the entitlement they have. Bolt have to look for a way to change that narrative.

Most of these ladies only remember to rate a driver when there is an issue with the trip but they don't rate at all if the trip was a good one, if you doubt me ask pocochantis

I disagree with you on this. Pearl1910 is right.

Imagine as I take chop the bonuses twice on Sat and Sunday.

I doubt if online is online and not driving time I.
Have experienced this also and I will tell you it was only when I was driving in a trip time was added.
I began to wonder what’s going on.
Could it be the driving time or just online time used?

Tiri gbosas for you.

Truth be told, most of our riders don't k ow how the system works. I was to pick a rider yesterday. Being a 1.9 surge day for me, I had to wait for about 14 mins before rider came out. On getting to the drop off, the she was shocked the amount was high. I just dey look her. The time you kept me waiting for sey you no know Na yourself you dey do. grin
Felicity0001:
Who's talking about age ot years of experience here?

You're the main reason most riders misbehave especially on the bolt app.

Your trip ended 2000 and driver is asked to collect N800, you gave driver 1k and driver only had N100 change, he asked you do a transfer instead since no where to get change in the middle of the night, you said you can't do transfer you later accepted to collect the N100 driver has and because of that you rated him 1 star...

You ordered a ride, driver arrived and clicked arrived at ur PUP, you got a notification on ur app that ur driver is outside waiting... U called instead of saying, "pls I'm on my way out" you're calling to quarrel driver you arrive why didn't you call? Driver asked you, since you called is there anything wrong? You hissed likr a snake, cut the call and cancelled...

You requested, driver arrived, called u with his own call card, instead of you to I'm outside looking for you you're asking stupid and senseless questions, "what's the color of ur car? What's your Reg No, what type of car is it? You for ask for my VIN na...

Even when a driver tries to correct or teach you or give you orientation in how things work with the app or about the google map they're so stupid and bossy to listen or to accept.

All they know how to do is rate 1 star, they think they're doing me they don't know they're actually reducing their chances of them not meeting every driver they meet again because giving 1 star means you and that person's path will never crosz again. Pray you never get stranded some day u go request only to discovered you've blocked all the drivers around you at that very time.

Guyman is not fully ready for this hustle. He needs to understand that driving on Bolt/Uber is different from the corporate world.

You need to be smart with enough dose of madness locked somewhere to be unleashed once once. If not, everybody will frustrate you. From riders to Lagos state road officials (name them).

.............................................................

Yesterday morning, absent-mindedly I was listening to a voice note while descending Ajah bridge,, there was slight traffic. I looked up, .lastma Don rush me, one jumped in front of the car, another was trying to open the door.

I ignore both of them and kept driving ready to break the one in front of the cars leg. He kept banging my Bonnet shouting stop stop stop. I didn't answer, I kept moving, he saw I wasn't going to wait, he just left and told his colleague to take pictures.

Me I Don go. You have no evidence of me making calls. So anywhere we meet, make them prove am.

Really? And you let her just walk away? No rider will do that with me any more. I'm not waiting for Bolt half pay again. She did that deliberately. And she will still do it again.

Whatever that makes me drive you, you just know you re paying. Else your phone will be retained till you pay. Kindly share her contact details here.
Barbiturate:
My last rider(lady) yesterday, refused to pay me after getting to her destination, using Google map. She said it's not her destination. I told her she must have put the wrong destination because I followed the map. She said I should end the trip and she will get down, carry her load, and not pay me a dime. I didn't argue with her. Told her "No problem"!
Reported to bolt. They said they will refund me in 5 days if she doesn't pay and that they've blocked her.
