Very normal.
Probably you are using the wrong tool

Very wrong input, I use the same 2006 Camry and I use 4k fuel to make 15k. Sometimes I use less.
Bigdam something is either wrong with your camry or you're not managing your fuel properly

DEGREE2466:
I watched this video on Facebook. That driver must be a member of this thread.

I mean, how can a driver have the gut to attack a rider like that? What happens to good customer service. That was terrible and I felt for the lady.

I can't imagine ordering an Uber with my hard earned money only for somebody to spoil my day like that.

The guy should be the one to greet and looking at that lady, she seems older than the driver.

And to think the driver recorded the video excluding himself and thinking that he's anonymous is ludicrous.

All Uber needs to do is to contact the rider, fish out the driver, and block his As$. What an unruly behavior.

Please, let's not take everything written here serious oo.

Stewpeed you are sir

dhavydo:
Err what's like an acceptable per hour charge for an offline Uber trip? Told the woman 20k for 4 hours.. Is it reasonable or am I a thief?

It's the latter

I missed the era of Ogunvic, Romeo, Ifeanyimark, Chillex etc. These are the real hustlers with real figures and facts to show. Am very sure[b] if Romeo is still driving he will still be making that same figures he screenshots here[/b]. Nay Sayers have filled the house now.

Or he would have burnt out

Oh! What a relief to read this, I used to think I was the only one afraid of those flying cockroaches

LCWind:
Since this is a blatant lie, I won't bother derailing the thread a little.

Blatant lie? How long have you been voting sir? Why are we still here? Look beyond what your eyes can see then you'll know pvc solves nothing, it only helps you pick one of many wrong answers and not the solution. I'm not responding to this topic again

ameristu:
Reading the past comments, it just really hurts me seeing Nigerians fighting each others like this. It just tells how far the country has deteriorated.

A lot of this fights and strikes can be avoided if we had a good government in place, the government would come into play by having a minimum take home for every worker. The minimum take home for every Uber/Taxify driver should be at least 100k a month, so if you are renting it would be less that that.

This fare matter could have easily been passed on to the government and the government would have been able to come to a reasonable fare considering the traffic condition and state of road in the state but this is not the case so all these multi nationals treat Nigerians with no respect which is very saddening.

Every Nigerian is their own government, fighting for their right and fending for themselves.

Please let us all get our PVC's and do the right thing.

SN: With this new rates even people with corolla's are having challenges meeting up with their remittance.

Unfortunately there's no correct answer in the options, pvc solves nothing

slamstanlee:
Abeg how ltrs is consumed when a car is idle and ac is on for 1hr?
I just saw one driver sleeping so deep this afternoon with ac on. I smiled

Many drivers do it overnight almost all nights

3RNEST:
Person mistake transfer 1million to one of una uber driver una no talk anything.. Na so una be??

3RNEST:
He's not dragging uber but he came online to seek for solutions sincerely u guys should help him out instead of all this, but put him in your shoes we all make mistakes and no one is perfect.

In conclusion, I came in peace and to seek solution regarding his present predicaments.

Thanks for your time and Jah bless our hustle.

#PeaceOut. #OneNigeria

Quite contradicting

3RNEST:
No be woman na man, like seriously u trying to say the uber driver is rite to hold his money? Cuz he made an error transferring money to his account...

How is it uber's business that he transferred 1m to a wrong person? The money has nothing to do with any trip/transaction on uber platform so he should deal with it appropriately without dragging uber in the mud.

3RNEST:
Person mistake transfer 1million to one of una uber driver una no talk anything.. Na so una be??

Emmm.... Who are you again?

toomush:
Me: where are you going to?

Rider: Agric

Me: sorry ma, I can't go there right now.

Rider: why nah? The road is free nah... Like 3 drivers have cancelled.

Me: sorry ma

Drivers no get joy

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

Rider: I'm in sangisha going to magodo, are you interested, I'm asking because like 4 drivers said there are not going.

Me: sorry ma, I'm far from you, the distance I will cover to pick you will likely be more than the trip.

Rider: ok oooh

So riders sha Naso one yeye boy with one girl request me for Uber last night for ozone cinemas at Sabi, I didn't ask location, when I got there he said he's to the next street.

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

Me: where are you going to?

Rider: Maryland mall.

Me: ok ( I'm at ikosi)

Rider: but we are not ready yet, you will have to wait for like 25mins

Me: sorry I can't wait.

What's wrong with some riders sef

You didn't mention those that will request and won't call, and when you eventually call them they will be telling you they requested uber/taxify. I will be like shey I no know na him I dey call you abi na instagram u think say I get ur number from. Mumu riders everywhere

styveke:
Nature can sometimes choose the wrong to call

taxiappguy:
Hello everyone,
I'm excited to bring this to the group.
It's a new money making opportunity for Partners and Drivers.
You get to make some good money by the side while doing absolutely nothing extra!

How?
Taxi App Guy is partnered with a firm that specializes in in-ride entertainment and advertisement to your rideshare cars.

How does this work?
We place high quality screens in your car. These screens broadcast interactive and highly engaging content to your riders as you drive them around.
The more engagement the screen in your car gets the more money you make.
And the best part? The screen is totally free to install.
You don't have to do anything else as we send content into the screens, all you have to do is keep taking trips as you normally would.

We are running a pilot program for the first 5 people to test out the screens in their vehicle, during the pilot period we we are simply testing out the product and so won't be sending any payouts. We start sending out payouts when we launch.
Of course the first five people get priority when the actual program launches.

If you are interested in participating in the pilot, please mention this post. The first 5 eligible partner/driver gets the available screens.

More details coming.

Taxi App Guy

The screens, do they have USB port? I'm interested

styveke:
Has anyone ever been pressed while in traffic and with a rider? It happened to me two nights ago.

I was on a trip to Badore from UNILAG. We got into the Lekki link bridge traffic just b4 the roundabout and with a full bladder...it was a painfully slow moving traffic. When it got to the point where I couldn't endure it any longer, I asked my rider who was cuddling his babe if he can drive and he said no...

At that point I couldn't reason straight, I just put my car in park and asked the guy to come and drive the car that I'm about to pee on myself, I didn't wait to hear his response...I jumped out of the car, jumped over the divider and in less than 2 seconds I was on the other side of the bridge. I relived myself and also ignore passersby with a straight face.

I turned and I saw my car moving slowly in the traffic...I thought to myself, see person wey say he no Sabi drive o...
When I caught up with the car, I tapped the window and signalled the guy to stop. See the relief on his face eh...the guy was actually saying the truth, he no Sabi drive.

The car in front of me was a high end SUV...a 2017 Lexus LX 570 jeep...wetin I for do if to say the guy jam this jeep from behind?

I don't even wanna imagine it.

I've left my car and rider at one of the lekki traffic lights before and eased myself beside the express there, lights turned green and I began hearing horns everywhere, in my mind nothing is stopping this weewee. The woman has been complaining of me not moving very fast that she didn't have much money on her so I was expecting all hell to break loose but the woman just started laughing that "that thing go don hold u reach throat o, the way u take jump out and this one wey u no fear make dem catch u for express wey u dey piss" I just smiled and said now I can safely drive fast

Vicyace:
Of course. It's quite possible. Drivers are human beings too. Some are even well educated.

My point is, don't hit on your passengers. There maybe instances where both the driver and the passenger may click gbam but this happens often via intelligent conversations not hitting on someone unnecessarily like you be Anthony Joshua.

Many

radautoworks:
Is oil cap connected to car? If so not, it may not be it's oil cap.
Gazzuzz and I always disagree about this. Bring it in to shop for them to take a look at it. Don't treat the symptom. Treat the disease.

Okay I will find time to bring it in. Thanks

dru23:
Sorry I can't help u on that case... I had a similar experience. My 07 elantra was shorten oil . The previous oil before that was the local oil of the 5k ..basically the engine was abused... at the time my driver was topping oil every other week ..there was no sign of any leak and eventually the oil kept drying up
So finally I had 'ring' the engine, it cost me over 150k pictures below ...so if I was to guess the engine of your car needs either "ringing" or new engine. . Using thicker oil will not solve the problem it is a short term fix.. You might need to replace the engine eventually..

Engine is still very sharp, quiet and doesn't smoke

smatt1711:
you sound so insecure,like you don't trust your wife, any man that trust his wife will just laugh it off, because he knows 100 trials will surely fail, but look at you shaking and reporting to uber, this is what you get when people don't marry there match and partner.

Don't just open your mouth and talk, if your wife reports such sensitive matter to you, you don't laugh it off, you take it up and do something. From your comment I can deduce you're not married, when you finally marry your match and partner, you can keep laughing it off when guys start harassing her outside until she's raped, well you can laugh that off too. Shit happens anyways right? No shaking

lagostaxiguy:
Uber also blamed me for calling the driver, according to them its against their policy, all matters should be directed to them

Dem dey fear offline trip arrangements

dru23:
My brother please Google is your friend... if you what to know the type oil to use on your car .. Google Mobil oil. Com ..very simple .. It will tell you what type of oil is best for your car ....
And whatever product you use ,please Google and read the reviews on it ..don't just buy for the sake of buying...

Below is the oil that I use for my car ....Mobil oil extended performance oil ....better than most oil in the market.. Again google is your friend... if you are interested let me know

Thanks but 5w30 is drying up, that's why I want to change to a thicker oil

radautoworks:
Your car uses 0w20. If it's a 6 Cylinder, 5w20.

You need

4 bottles of http://weblink.carquest.com/acl/?mfgName=CQO&partNumber=CQ900 for N13,840

5,000 mile Oil filter http://weblink.carquest.com/acl/?mfgName=RFI&partNumber=R84145 N1,486.

OR for v6 you have two oil choices

Conventional http://weblink.carquest.com/acl/?mfgName=CQO&partNumber=CQ610-5QT N9,735

Synthetic http://weblink.carquest.com/acl/?mfgName=CQO&partNumber=CQ920-5QT N16,728

http://weblink.carquest.com/acl/?mfgName=RFI&partNumber=R85348 N1,486

Labor for oil change including free car check and fluid top off is N2,500

Thanks for this detailed info. It's 4 plug with over 170k mileage, bought 3 months ago (toks). Oil cap says 5w30 and that's what I've been using but it keeps drying up so gazzuzz recommended 5w40. As 0w20 is thinner than 5w30, don't you think it'll dry up faster?

Ogbunigwe2018:
Do you have proof?
If not, no case.
Remember this is Uber, not taxify where riders can't cook all sorts.
Due investigation will be carried out by UBER SPECIAL TEAM.

Pls what happened last December? Nobody wan talk

Nevertheless he should report, by the time 2 or 3 riders report the same issue about the same driver that's enough proof

lagostaxiguy:
Hello house, I requested a ride for my wife to be taken home from office yesterday as she was too tired to drive, the driver after informing him that he was picking my wife, he still got into the vehicle and first question he asked her is her martial status, she confirmed she was married but that didn't stop him from hitting on her and telling her how beautiful she is and he really likes her and also insinuating how good he his in the other room (indirectly), she told him he was not been professional but that didn't stop him, he chatted until he dropped her and still had the guts to ask for a hug infront of my house. I am very upset, I called him immediately she informed me but I'm not satisfied with his silly apologies because I'm very sure he will do it to other women, should I go ahead and report him to uber? As somone who also drives in the platform, I know uber will not take it lightly.

Report straight!! What insolence, someone like that can rape. He's just not in control of his sexual urge
