Done 12k twice to Canaan land, one was from Idejo, the other was from Oriental, sealed both on the phone during the usual convo.

(The roads weren't this bad then o)

Experience isn't the same

Canaanland from toll gate is another journey on it's own

ThatNiccur:
Best bet, negotiate offline, stating the condition of roads and not being able to get a trip back into civilization as major reasons.


Some riders can be understanding. Do 12-15k, look for a trip to bring you back, once you get back into town. Wouldn't be a bad deal considering today is Thursday (no market) which means less activity.

Regarding the best route, someone posted a route here that's not as terrible as the main one, you can check it out.


My 50 cents.

Cheers.

15k is high sir, very high

Ghost1994:
This car is too small for the job. Both Uber and bolt won’t accept the car.

The fares are too small for the current cars too

jpworld:
Here driver's are the landlords, if u post ur car here, they bully u and start making fun of u.

The same driver will still tell u, if they have money they wont invest more than 800k.

Will 800k get you any good car? Never.

But yet they want a clean Corolla to deliver 20k.

Slickleo I'm here to help owner's.

This is not owner's thread sir, you can create one and leave driver's thread for drivers

[color=royalblue]Like....

Let's be factual...What exactly is the government providing to aid cabhire or ehailing?

There are no roads. 70% of the roads in Lagos have no presence of ehailing because it's bad. Uber no get market for Badagry, Epe, Apapa, Ikorodu, Ojo, Satellite and so many areas

Or should we talk about security? It's only on the island (First roundabout to 7th) that is safe at night. Once you pass Ajah, na God hand you dey.

Or is it the rising cost of parts and maintenance?

Them go collect million million for licencing fee yearly, still collect 10% of 25% too...Habaa

They just want to float theirs.... Imagine a ehailing meeting wey na MyKab be the only provider in attendance. [/color]

You just summarized Nigeria.. a country where government doesn't care how you manage to survive, all they know is bring bring bring, they never give give give

Iyanu6000:
Thank you, any heads up about the platform , what to watch out for and what I should be carful of.

Just look out for touts, they're always in uniforms and disguise under names like lastma, police, CBD, LGA and so on.

Don't accept transfer from riders who are not ready to wait till you get alert.

Don't give riders money for anything, they will come with all sorts of touching story.. 90% na wash

I'm hungry, I'll drop the mic here for elders in the house to continue

izzou:
[color=royalblue]It's possible that they were/are paying tax na

Or would you say an org like Uber and Bolt was not paying any tax to LASG for almost half a decade now? That's not possible.

That 10% is just too much.

Pay this, pay that, yet the scope of the job is very limited. Roads are bad, so many unsafe places to ply...[/color]

Government has upgraded from tax to tithe

pope191:
You agree?

Which other choice him get

pope191:
SO uber won't let me go online, until I agree to their 35 pages TC, which I need my legal team to examine and advise on said subject. What should I do like this can anyone help me with summary pls, before I sign myself away

Legal team

Gentlelife50:
Let me tell you the trick, once you can't get to pu before the time.
Just arrive on the app once the time is up, and continue driving to pick up point.
Na so

I think say na only me dey do am
If it's an elderly rider I will quickly call and inform him/her that my hand mistakenly pressed arrived while trying to navigate my way, but if it's youngies like me I no dey call. Most of them no dey know say you click arrive sef and the few ones that call I will just say it's a blip on the app, it sometimes alert them according to the ETA not when driver actually arrives. Sebi na lie the app want

Gentlelife50:
Dem no put chuku chuku for your front tire?

If dem put na there all of us go dey, I go block road cause traffic till consistuted authorities arrive. Everybody get craze but e dey get different timing lol

peeps4u:
I love this mean. What duty does LG have with road traffic? The extortion and illegal money makes the LGs send their touts on the roads to impound cars.

I've always said it here that I would be waiting for the day these stupid touts would stop me for not wearing facemask while alone in the car. It happened yesterday and I was even with 2 of my friends in the car but I still showed them pepper.

They threatened from now till tomorrow asking me to park otherwise they would do this they would do that.. taaaa I pointed to one man selling snacks without putting on facemask in the midst of crowd and asked them to go and arrest him, they just smiled and said I should just talk to their oga that he's an understanding man, I just mtchewed and faced front back.

One walked pass my window as if he was making calls quoting my plate number I still no send, the one that stood in my front nobody told him to leave when traffic started moving because he could see I was ready to damage his haggard looking legs.

My friend initially panicked before the whole drama started because he was carrying over 2m in his bag (he wanted to go and pay for his new car) and he was afraid police could get involved if the issue escalates so he told their oga to collect 2k but the oga was just doing strong head. After all their efforts in getting into the car or forcing me to park proved abortive and we were getting close to the end of traffic, their oga just came and said oya bring it and before I could say jack my friend quickly gave him. Na 500 I for give them for their wasted efforts, who gave them authority to arrest for face mask. For this Lagos.. it can never ever

Crvrider:
Its not all Nigerians that are typical. More so, it could be a factor of different reasons:
Time of day
Location
Rider is comfortable with your offer but decides to try
something lower first
Rider is running late

Plus rider is going to destination unfavorable to drivers, say sango ota.

peeps4u:
I hope he is resigning to drive with his car? He might regret his action if he is planning to resign and join ehailing on rental.

As for your inquiry, if the car is his, he will surely make far more than 60k he earns currently on his job.
He should compare the prospect in his current job with his future plans in ehailing if it is safe to resign because sincerely, govt can literally kill any business, ehailing inclusive, just one day with a bad policy.

Lest i forget, dont invest over a million on car for ehailing, I always advise 800kmax, so you can recoup your investment quickly. You can get a good naija used honda civic (from 2003) for 600-700k, you can't get naija used coro for a million or less unless you're lucky, so u might take coro away from your option. Civic is even more fuel efficient than coro afterall. You can possibly get naija used big daddy or matrix for less than 1 million. Hyundai elantra is another option but I cant say about its cost of maintenance or parts.

Good luck.

Then you are possibly looking for a lemon

[color=royalblue]E shock you? [/color]

Aswear the shock no be here

Felicity0001:
I will contest it n notin will happen. Yes its wrong but do you know how painful it is when someone blocks you from getting to your goal? Even after you've pleaded to them for mercy?

Uber has adjusted the trip already to 0:0 naira just now but I won't respond yet till after 48hrs b4 I'll respond.

People should know that the gentle and quiet man beside them is not just quiet nor gentle but more mad than them Some times.

Truth be told you should have been the one to cancel since you're the one who didn't want to go on the trip

Felicity0001:
I just did something very bad now but if I can handle it to the very last I won't regret it all.

After my last post I got a trip to magodo via set destination to Abule-Egba. 1.5km to drop off another request came in 6.3km (had I known I wouldnt have picked it.

Rider didnt call till I droppes of and time was 9:51pm already. Dropped off and the. GMap says 3.8km to pickup ETA 18min; 10:03pm.

Put a call through to riderer.

Me: hi, gudevening pls where you going to pls?
R: Berger
M: pls kindly req another ride it's off my path
R: Okay

I thought this guy waa gonna cancel but he didn't.

I calles him again.

M: pls sir you still haven't cancelled.
R: I'll be charged you cancel.
Me: you still have time to cancel without being charged pls kindly cancel so I can get a ride towards my destination.
R: Okay.

Guy still refused to cancel.

I then drove down to pu, waited for about 6min could see it was a card trip na there devil come enter my Godly heart and I said let me teach this guy a hard lesson since you want to spoil my own make me help you spoil your own too.

I started trip, got to Berger did solo 4passengers to ogba. I then decided to end trip at excellent hotel.

As I reach out the stupid guy sent me a textbwithin.

How do I report to uber now is what I'm trying to think now.

If you a good and constructive lie I can give to uber pls help me out.

Felicity Seriously?

pope191:
They call themselves PEDPA fighting for ehailing drivers guys b ready for union dues

With time, they too will gain ground. Infact they are slow, if they know what they are doing and how to play their game well they would have gone way farther than this

Gentlelife50:
Lol, me I don't even like turning off my AC.
I am doing it for myself not the rider, even when I am riding alone.
It is won't more than extra 5 hundred fuel at the end of the day.

God bless you. I don't like rolling down my windows cuz i'll spend more money cleaning car interior than I will spend on the little and mostly insignificant extra fuel I'll use with AC on. All in all, I'm working not to suffer, why suffer avoidable suffering while working

pope191:
The most stupid ride I took last week was getting a request at GTB Marsha from Adelabu going to Lawanson. I'm supposed to take Ogunlana straight down, I don't know if the woman watch me start the trip.

R. Place let me get fruit at the other side
M. Drove and pack beside the round about, thinking it was a quick buy (She alighted to get all d fruits in africa)

She got into the car for me to start propelling.

R. Please enter this marsha car park, I need to get some tin
M. Straight face, temptated to talk, but remind myself, it will b better to get home in one peace, already pick a battle date with one rider today

She came back after some mins and I zoom to take a turn just after doing that to Ogunlana


R. Please park, I need to get groundnut here
M. Jesus! Please just take this wheel

dansito:
Honestly,I really don't knw wat lagos government is trying to achieve by all this.this is absolutely rubbish.

They want to make money. Cool cash while doing next to nothing

confusedworld17:
I was at one event center to pick up a rider. 
Rider turned out to be the chef for the owambe. Rider wants to pack all her loads into my car. Even gas cylinder and that big iron burner that they use for those big big pots. I was so furious  that I wanted to react and tell her that I'm not going but the little asshole in me whispered and gave me an idea of what to do.
So I allowed her with the help of two of her boys to load their stuffs inside my trunk and the remaining one at the back seat to the extent that there was only a space for just one person at the back. Even the little space would not contain one person comfortably.

As if that was not enough, madam chef told one of the boys to lap the other one. Me was just standing by the side watching them do their thing because I already knew what I wanted to do.
At that point, my rear bumper was about to kiss the ground.

Chef : Oga we are ready come and start the trip.
Me : I'm not going again because of too much loads.
Chef : But it was a driver like you that brought us here with all these loads. 
Me : No vex. I no know say the loads plenty like this.  
Chef : So why did you allow us to take the time and pain to load and now you want us to unload everything ?   
Me : No vex.  
They started unloading... me return to my watching position until they were done.
As them suffer me, make me burn fuel to come do the work of a truck, nothing do me if I make them sweat small.
The thunder wey go fire that driver wey carry all those loads still dey do press up for national stadium.

An eye for an eye

pope191:
Today ehn! My Musa eyes saw, almost every trip was a battle of musanga, out of the 15 trips I did, cancellation fee 4 times, it got to a point of picking a battle date with a rider (Tho I won't go, but might consider if Mrjaydee, Felicity0001 or Tojahh follow me). It is well... tho, I knew it's going to b like dis the moment I picked one girl on a 500 naira trip dis morning from one hotel and she was just shuffling thro d bra in her pulse to pay. I don't need any prophet to tell me, I've collected money from grandma's... had I know, I would have jus tell her not to bother

I volunteer to follow you. Go without fear bro, when you get there punch the eediot and call me.
