It is true sha. I paid 10500 then for my rav 4. But whether 10k or 50k, na still money nah.

Na so one Dy ask me to come pick her at the departure, MMIA yesterday. She said I should pretend that she was in the car before. I just pity drivers who will fall victims to this nonsense. Why can't riders find their ways to the car park sef? If your load too much, then look for guys to help nah

Bammzzie:
So a request came in yesterday night at international airport
Rider(Woman): Good evening, I'm at the airport, I'm waiting
Me: Ok, wait for me at the parking lot..
Rider: I'm outside at the departure, I can't go to the parking lot, don't worry I'm with a police
Me: Ok (with one mind), I'll on my hazard light
Rider: Ok, I'll watch out
Got to the airport departure, that's how some men are trying to open my door, I was like who are this people, I just japa ... I called back the rider that I didn't see her
Rider: We are the one trying to stop you but u just zoom off
Me: I don't know, since those 2 men are on mufty.
I was just mumbling that which kind wahala be this... Long story short, I turned back to goan pick the woman and 2 airport police. They now told me not to be scared next time, I replied that I dnt hv 50k fine o... They said we are all mugus, that next time if my car is clamped and they are doing gragra... The woman said I shld just calm down and tell them to take me to there office cos saloon cars fines are #5,500 and SUVs are 10k, that they'll just calm down... I said ok o

My brother, if you ask me, na who I go ask? I Girls of nowadays are something else.

BAZ001:
Pls how do you, use style to tell a guy that you just picked his babe from another guys house.

I picked this fresh buttyish looking girl with lil accent from an estate in Land bridge and a tall guy accompanied her out but didn’t get to the car. She came in looking tired but soft voice and very cool. She’s been very cool even on phone. Looks so decent damn (e dey pepper me)

Long story short immediately she got into the car she called someone and started apologizing “ I know you angry with me, I’m sorry my phone was on silent . I’m already on my way in Uber I’m so sorry.”

Got to TPPD estate on lekki conservation and she told me to pls wait she wants to change and I will take them to ologolo hmmm.
Gbam she came down with a fresh guy like yankee freshness. Na so then dey do love birds inside car , she put her head on his laps touching and all. I was trying to cut eye for the guy dt nooooo na lie but guy man no send me. I waited maybe they will kiss so I can shout and say that was how you kissed the other guy but the girl was looking at me smiling like why you dey stare.

Finally I realized they were going to house agent but of them wan move could they be thinking of marriage? So I stopped cutting the guy eye as d mumu guy no even send me.

Well I’m doing my bit here, incase the guy is on this thread, who knows but I don’t understand the way girl switch or fake emotions.

This hustle is already messing my mindset about ladies. Chaiii... wahala for who never marry

I can relate.

XGhost:
This thing you said, yesterday I was around Ago, was just completing a trip when another one entered from just around the corner. Drove there, swiped arrive then called the number, switched off. Tried a few mor times, same thing. I just reclined my seat and slept. When I woke up it was reading 13 minutes paid waiting, I called again via the app this time, the person now cancelled. As I de turn to leave the street request entered to lekki, 1.4x... I sing imeelaaa oooo

Seconded.

donfortune48:
When people say that agreement is agreement, the image below comes to my mind.
Why will you rent a car, rough handle it and bring to the owner to fix?

The fact that car owners take responsibility in fixing the car, simply means that how much you make using that said car should concern them. No one should compare this with house rent and Landlords.

The more hrs you spend online making more money, the more likely it is for the car to brake down. And the owner takes responsibility of repairing it from the fixed rental amount while you're smiling with more money in your account.

My own advice to car owners is to find a way to make drivers solely responsible for repairs. Even if it means collecting only 20k/week rental. And before the driver drops the car, he must fix and repaint the car back to the condition it was when he rented it.

pope191:
Don't bother boss, words r like egg, once it drop, just forget it. In due u will b getting a robust response from us, we can't watch u undermine our energy and let go of the consequences. Our intel r gathering information where u fix ur tyres, change oil and wash ur car... the nuke will b epic

I already did that immediately I saw her alert. Told same too.

BAZ001:
Pls help her contact bolt again.
Just send app message that rider has paid.
I had to send messages 3 times before they unblocked a rider.
Though it was sweeting me for belle,
but let’s not pay evil for evil.

Dropped a guy in lekki estate trip ended 4,500, he called his friend to do transfer of 3k that he will transfer 1,500. I got 3k alert but not 1.5k. Rest na voice mail. I reported to bolt, bolt gave me 2.5k compensation.

My prayer is that he shouldn’t pay the 1.5k again, I no need am.
Cos if he pays 1.5k bolt will take back their 2.5k

Exactly.

spartacus11:
Thanks for sharing this, as someone planing to get into driving, good to see how you handled the situation of rider not paying, that has been one of my major concerns as an aspiring driver

Take note of "before confirming the money". after doing that, you still need to report the trip specially to Bolt through the app. Also note that some riders will still not pay the money. They d rather be blocked than pay.

All da best.

Thas the most annoying thing about Indriver now. Since I noticed that, I hardly take trips on the app except it is very necessary.

eyinola:
why do they reduce their bidding rate? Now a rider offers 1000 and the highest u can go is 1,150 unlike before that u can bid as high as 1600

Are you kidding me?

Felicity0001:
Hahaha... Welcome back! Welcome back!! Welcome back!!!

You know what? I'm so happy that post woke the dead donkey in you. Where have you been all this while Mr. JP?

Yes! that reminds me, a question was asked recently in this forum about how much is ideal for rental currently... Please, now that you're back I'll be expecting you add your own insults and salt to my response. Do you need a quote? Ask your oga to dive just a little into the dip for it to make it easy for you.

How much is your present rental fee? I've some drivers in my neck but unfortunately I do not have any car at my disposal right now, so can you be of a saving grace Mr. god? One of your boys have been representing you very well in your absence pls present to him an award cause we underatand thats all you've always wanted to see here. So what are you waiting for already?!

Please stop being jealous of my old age, it's a thing of pride to be old. if not to you but it is to me... I cherish it with all jealousy.
I'll be inviting you for my golden birthday celebration in September pls DM for your invitation. I'll order a special gallon of palmwine awaiting your arrival. and my wife I mean that lively woman that feeds me not just when I don't have rental but has always been feeding me since I was born will prepare a good ise-ewu with ugba so you can enjoy the party very well. You can come with you boys we have enough to feed them since we understand they suffer from malnutrition due to the lack of time to eat to long hours driving on a daily basis.

Please don't forget to come with your wife too I like to ask her a simple question which is, how she managed to end up with a bittered man like you with so much hate and aggression and also to take a selfie with you both so I can frame the tribal marks you've inflated on her with you crocodile hands gotten due to hardship all your life time of unfruitful hustle and also to see how flattened your tummy has gone due to starvation since you don't give her good money to cook for you and the children.

Mr.jp I expect you ooh pls don't forget the date is September 21st, 2021 in my private residence somewhere in Ajah.

BAZ001 oosa!

BAZ001:

Everybody run oohhhh

Most drivers don't read signs. Reason they still fall to Popo at 4 point.
In fact most drivers on this ehailing just don't know the rules of driving.

Pearl1910:
I just completed a trip to MM2 after a long time and there are new signs everywhere saying Drop-off Only, No Parking, No waiting, bla bla bla. Only an ignorant or careless person will still fall prey by picking up someone from that area when there are multiple signs boldly warning u.
Recall when the stories came up that people where being arrested for picking up passengers at the normal pickup and dropoff area, I asked if there is a sign that informs the public about this new development.
Be vigilant, observant and patient.

I noticed same too. A rider wanted to japa with my 1900 2 days ago, but claiming she had been debited. I quickly reported her to Bolt before confirming the trip. I tried to reach the lady but not getting any positive response. She called me later in the day to send my account number. I learnt bolt had contacted her.
In short, I have I got my money from her.
Only for her to call me yesterday with sobriety that her account is still blocked. Me I no send o. I have told bolt that she has paid me anyways. If they refuse to unblock her, then not my cup of tea.
It will be a lesson for others like her.

northbird:
Indriver kept beeping on Tue&Wed., I didn't even bother to check.

Mehn, Bolt is on a new level . The app experience is fantastic.

A rider that did fake alert since July 4th. called me on the 18th that I should send my account number. I had even written off the ₦1,500 sef.

Omo, if one can put in the time, Bolt will put you on earnings an average Lagosian will always dream of....

No oo. The first trip from Shomolu to Festac was 2600. The driver even had to carry many loads. But the price wasn't same when I was booked.

Felicity0001:
Wait oh bros, I no understand... Driver that booked the ride for them collected his own commission of N2600, owo security abi owo booking ride ni.

And you wey do work collect 4k while bolt middle man collect 1k+ nawao that driver na big ant oooh MC Oluomo brother

Allow drivers to set radius for trip request like bolt.

IFEBARBIE:
Uber has invited me for a physical roundtable discussion on how to improve their app and driving experience on their platform. I already have my list of prayers for them which include

1. Display of rider's destination (riders believe we see it, but I tell them it's only on bolt)

2. Recruitment of more partners to reduce incidences of long pickups ( today I was around adekunle and got a trip from uba building)

3. Penalizing riders who request and fail to answer their calls. You can't slide arrived on Uber you need drive down to PU

4. Rider verification

5. Reduction of commission to 15 or 20% and regular promo for riders.

Pls, feel free to add yours so as to present it tommorow. Thanks

I had same experience yesterday. The order was made by the theid party. So obviously, the the person I carried didn't know what the estimate was. Getting to destination, rider con dey fume as if sey na me write the amount. Na just 5300 o. They said the driver that took them there collected 2600. Just imagine. Mine was on 1.9 surge with plenty traffic. I collected my money sha o

nickvanilla:
That is how I finished a trip this afternoon, rider called out like two of his family members who came and started speaking grammar for me. I just cross my hand dey rest for the side of my car. They were even asking me if the fee included taking them back to the pick up point. I for begin laugh but I no just dey in the mood.

After wasting like 15 minutes of my time arguing and asking jamb questions, the most senior guy among them brought out his phone and reluctantly transferred the money with a frown plastered on his face.

Some people don't even bother to check the prices before ordering. Whether it's on surge or not. For me, that's irresponsible. It's like entering a restaurant and not bothering to know the prices of items on the menu.

But who should be blamed? The cost of maintaining automobiles has skyrocketed recently. So definitely cost of transportation should increase.

*SPECIAL INFORMATION!!!!!*

If your vehicle is in that flood and you havent started your engine. Don’t start it!!!!!!!

Even if the vehicle is submerged and the water goes down. It’s likely water has made its way into the engine.

The first thing to do is open your engine air filter and check for moisture. If it’s moist or damp, DO NOT CRANK THAT VEHICLE!!! DO NOT ATTEMPT TO START IT. .

Allow the water go down, tow it away if possible. Get your mechanic to drain the engine oil immediately. Also drain the transmission fluid. Do not take the risk of trying to drive that vehicle.

Let the mechanic disconnect the fuel sending unit ( fuel pump), pull out the spark plugs one after the other and then crank the engine. You want to make sure water in each cylinder is blown out of the engine by the compression / exhaust stroke.

Once completed for all the cylinders. Connect the fuel pump ( easiest way is to remove the relay or the fuse ) and start the vehicle. It may idle rough. Leave it. Do not rev it. Allow that vehicle idle for some 30 minutes

Once it’s up to operating temperature, ( because you have replaced your transmission fluid ) engage the gears one after the other. From P to R wait 5 seconds R to N wait another 5 seconds N to D wait again. D to N again N to R and R to Park. After this. You can drive.

Personally once I get the vehicle going again, I’d replace both fluids after another week or two depending on how milky they look.

Thank you

Exactly. Dudu Bishop knows his onions real well.

BAZ001:
That’s the real truth
I don’t believe whatever someone else have said about Blackbishop whether home or abroad

Dashboard or I dunt believe it.

Godfather10:
I do actually, 1 made £1210 last week, when lam in Nigeria lts a sin if l make less then 230k, there nothing more satisfy then working amongst one's own people, their hilarious humour, our flirtatious ladies and our hardwoking folks, nothing like home.!!

BAZ001 is busy drying his car I guess

SHOOPSYN:
Dru welldone.. . your strategy eventually worked out. Lure drivers with 2k challenge to upload dashboards(dashboards that doesn't mostly translate to money in your account) and now, onwers are bent on increasing rent or 40k/60k. But the truth is, except you decide to drive your car, drivers will always have larger share because they really deserve it. Please where is @BAZO? your silence in all these is begining to be suspicious. . My Boss @izzou, I hail sir.

I'm with you and others on this. 35k or nothing.

izzou:
[color=royalblue] Instead of me to use 2.5 million buy Corolla, God knows I'll use that money to buy Volkswagen T4 or LT

Danfo dey remit 8k to 10k per day, depending on the route.

And na still the same headache both of dem get.

20k a week is too bad. No driver should support that sef[/color]

I avoid riders like this though. And that Alpha Beach area, na another blacklisted place for me. Never.

deedee44:
It doesn't, you can never see a driver with this rating still active on the platform

Amennnnnnnnnn

Pearl1910:
Chai...Indriver don give u kopnomi.
I pray for u today be delivered from the spirit of Indriver IJN
Every chain tying u down to Indriver is broken IJN

Seconded

Odin2:
I am not even an uber driver but I'm always here. The cruise here though...

pope191 and BAZ001, if uber stops paying, you guys should enter comedy, or you can even combine the 2.

End the first trip there. Ask rider to request you again. Or they go offline with you. Allowing them to change destination is a way of making them cheat you. Peace.

MrCarter577:
Guys, how far with riders changing destination Oooo?

I was on a trip within Surulere, next thing when we got to destination, rider said, we're heading to Lekki. What's the best thing to do?

Sshould I change direction to Lekki; will Bolt calculate the first trip within Surulere, and then from Surulere to Lekki? Or should the driver allow Bolt app to calculate fees for the entire trip?

Eeyah. Pele

pope191:
The traffic is not here, scared of the unknown on the island, to and fro Surulere from Ogba is 4hr 30 mins and riders r not willing to add anything. I saw my gas dip, I jejely call it a day.

I used my account make request to report the Tom Ogboi way to drivers on Indriver. That kind thing. I'm not moved hsa. It even gave me time to visit Olaiya.

BAZ001:
You head dey there.
I’m even scared bolt might send me mail , cos I was canceling trips anyhow today.
Out of 36 trips I did only 6 trips and drove from 2pm till now.

Pls how were you blocked, ratings, cancel or report ?

Sakamanjeh99. I no mention anyone o. Run outta thread.

Felicity0001:
Yes you can sent to the number. Thanks a million and thanks to my friend Nazzjnr for coming through.

Okay let's do it like this, do 1k mtn card to me then send 1k to nazzjnr for his 2bottle of Heineken Abule Egba standard (N500/bottle) I don't know how much they sell at that side.

My oga at Shollywendy and pope191, matrix414, davit only to mention a few gracious... Twalle to you all.

Shollywendy I appreciate your concern today on that level god bless you.


On the flip side... Abeg who is Muslim here? How next week go be na... I need eat ram meat o abeg make una put me on a call na e jor

I dey with you on this.

Felicity0001:
Permission not granted.

BAZ001, pope191, pearl1910, kanuisagoat, shollywendy, davit, peep4u, northbird, flexxyworld, radautoworks and others what do you guys think about this matter?

Na so i take miss scanner and other give away o... See now this nazz guy self still won collect my 2k now

When they ask what s your name, I tell them Donald Trump. I no get time to drag matter.

Felicity0001:
At the bolded... Thank you sir!

A driver is at the security post and you as a rider expecting him/her yet you won't even call to give that convenience and when the driver calls you start asking irrelevant questions like what's your name? For heaven sake, didn't you see the name or the color of my car on your app?? Its so annoying.

Little wonder one told pearl1910 he was driving a different car. Just imagine the unremorseful stupidity.

Yes I know I'm a fucking uber driver the moment I turn on my app to accept request but that shouldn't make you disrespect me as a person like I've no value whatsoever, as a matter if fact you should know your life is in the hands of that man behind the wheel while on that trip so you don't wanna do anything to make him feel inferior or angry else some psycho can just drive you into something you never bargain for.

Wait o. So Pope191 Na babalawo too. I see... You no well at all. In fact, but I I no k ow who sick pass between you and Pope191. I still dey cum in peace o

BAZ001:
I dey enjoy this sweet infos in the midst of war and flood. I dey Surulere like dis, na to avoid
Trips to flood zones and be praying that one Lucifer child won’t change destination to dead traps. Cos it has happened to me twice rider will change destination mid way to bad roads
One was to Ijegun/ ijaye

Na there I go carry babalawo as in real Baba alawoo, he was talking like you (pope191) on phone.
Bring ori ogunfe (male goat)
Ori emo, (rat)
Ori ologbo (cat)

The story is for another day, babalawo do transfer before I got alert, I already said alert received don’t bother to wait sir.

That AC part dey beat my imagination. I do see guys put on their AC inside water. Who on earth does that? Only ignorant ones or the ones who feel the car is not theirs.

IFSHR:
My brother .... i dey first gate mechanic village like this to pick up something ...na coro boys I pity pass with all the things am seeing here, one was full soaked with water ...now imagine the ignorant ones that still used AC inside that flood na good bye to condenser

Na to check Google weather for Lagos and some pin point area in Lagos before I leave house.....weather report don predict heavy downfall for Wednesday and Thursday...na to just hustle wella...Sunday down to Tuesday and see as wed n Thursday be .
