The worst is on uber where high cancellation can lead to driver losing his account permanently and again you can't cancel without getting to PU else your cancellation rate will keep increasing.

So what i do is accept request with PU distance =<2.0km
, its better for my activity scores to reduce than my cancellation rate increase.

Technically PU distance =<2.0km means at most 10 minutes abi?

And what would you say is worst cancellation rate on Uber that leads to permanent blocking...15% ?

JeffreyD1:
What's the name

Coda?

yes

Once you're sure of account details keep booking appointments till you get a reasonable customer care rep to help you confirm.

I had same issue with my stanbic swift bic. Kept getting errors using what I saw online, till a customer care rep told me to alter one letter/digit and it worked.

Business account?! Maybe you should use an account with your personal name not business name.

eyinola:
they didn't help matter boss, the lady that attend to me after like 3 mins told me my time is up i should go out and book another appointment, I was so mad that day ...my acct is current acct , it's my business account

Also account should be current. Book an appointment and let customer care rep help you confirm swiftcode

eyinola:
I hv done that bro, I Google my bank swift code(zenith bank)

True since like friday last week no more long waits. I now get trips back to back. I use both uber and Bolt. Started the job in late June and it's just now it's making sense.

jpworld:
More than 4 drivers have called me this morning, looking 4 uber car, they are all offering 30k a week rent.

Claiming market has improved, they are ready to work for me.

You see why drivers reject posting their earnings, even when i offer 10k weekly for the highest earner? Rather than see it as a good will from the bottom of my heart, they're attacking me.

With the resumption of International flights moved from Aug 29th to Sept 5th due to logistics. Me thinks we can expect curfew to be called off too by next lockdown review. As Time Zone nature of International movement works best outside lockdown restrictions.

eyinola:
Bolt should work on this forever waiting for rider, i am just so angry this morning, one lady booked told her am close got to her gate she already cancel it, another one kept me waiting for 20 min before i vex cancel

Kpom! That's why in the day when I can go anywhere, if 2 request clash, i will usually take the uber request. Their standards are higher, clock starts to countdown as soon as you reach PU (makes riders more disciplined to choose correct PU), also after waiting for 8 minutes at PU (5 mins for older riders I think) I can cancel and get cancellation fee.

I have all 4 apps on my phone. Both rider and driver for Bolt and Uber. The riders serve their research purposes, then very rare occasionally I might need to request. But ive heeded this call and will never open my uber rider app when I'm at work. Thanks

Felicity0001:
When I explained and warned us about this very act some months back nobody listen now look at what that as cost you, your account.

I've said it here before DON'T EVER HAVE THE RIDER'S AND DRIVER'S APP ON THE SAME PHONE. IF YOU MUST HAVE BOTH APP MAKE SURE THEY'RE ON A DIFFERENT PHONE AND WITH DIFFERENT NUMBERS. that way the uber system won't be able to see any interference from their end. Also, always make sure your location is turn off if you must make use of the rider's app at any time else the system will still interfere and send wrong signal to UBER server and UBER don't joke with this kind of things.

My account has been flagged for about 4times and from all of the allegations leveled against me I came to be informed that it was because I had the two app running on same phone, since then I'd deleted the rider app from my phone. Non if I'd to make a request for FnF I use the Bolt app.

Sorry about this. If you want an UBER account again follow my previous advice to you.

Failure to me is the mother of success.

Sorry about that Boss. Please how have you been communicating with them? Via email? Can you share the email address please?

davit:
Thanks for your time. I just got a response from them. My account is blocked cos I operated rider's and driver's apps same time. Never knew this is wrong.
But it s late now.

Well, I got bonus last 2 weeks too

Just finished an annoying delivery trip.
When I got to pu, the girl that ordered brought a cake that was to be taken to cmd . I started the trip in her presence to confirm the address. A mosque was used as address *maybe for landmark*. I moved, immediately. Got to the mosque, called who I was to deliver to.
Me: good morning, ........... I’m to deliver a cake and I’m at the mosque.
She: look for number 8
I looked round and number 8 was just after the mosque. I told her I was in front of number 8. 10mins after, I called again to inform her I haven’t seen anyone.
She: what are u saying! U are not in number 8.
Me: ***surprised** ***abi no be number 8 I Dey see? And I already ended trip ooo.
I had to call the lady that ordered to explain. It was then I discovered I was a street away. immediately,I drove to the street, after getting the name.
Called on arrival, she was too harsh. Hian!
I saw someone come out to carry cake.

Me: my money is 2250 *showing her on the app*
She: ok, lemme take the cake and collect money from madam
Me: go and collect before you pick the cake.

As if I knew something was about to happen*

When she left, madam called and said she can’t pay 2250 and will pay 2k.
I just locked my doors and was chilling. I guess people around noticed and came to ask wassup. I explained and someone paid the 250 for her.

For deliveries i end trip after confirming i am with the right person for pick up.
And yes like you, no money - no letting go of item.

Guys pls...I want to get a car of my own for this business and don't really have much.......so between
1. Honda civic 2009
2. Hyundai Elantra 2008
3. Kia cerato 2009...
Which one will you guys recommend amongst the 3 and they are all NAIJA USED, but still engine solid

Like everyone has said, go for the Honda. Experience has thought me that for peace of mind, I should always go for the electronic with wide support. That way maintenance wont be a headache.

Wide support = spare parts and technicians readily available and affordable

Thus

car = Toyota, Honda
Laptop = HP
Phone = Samsung, Nokia, Tecno

Felicity0001:
Honestly you nailed it. Uber needs to review all these policies to say the least because I wonder why sb would want me to deliver their pakacge at their door step. The annoying one is that you've to start calling receiver and sender from d same small fare they want to pay.

Even this issue with loads it's beginning to piece me off, what most rider do now is order uber after keke or yellow taxi must have bill them high because if their load but las las uber will charge 400/500 naira for a trip yellow cab or keke must have charged 2k.

That was how I got this request today at pipeline in front of good luck Jonathan estate, drove to pu only to c a guy with two bags of charcoal.
R: pls I'm going to the next b/s
Me: whats inside the bags
R: charcoal.
His hands were even dirty from the stains of charcoal.
M: ha! You shld have informed me na, this will dirty my car.
Rider was trying to convince me it won't while I was thinking about it the next tin was ok cancel if you can't go.

Me that hate hearing that word. I just pulles over in front of the Super market, went to easy myself then came back and was buying roasted corn to eat, all of these is just to allow 5min ellaps oh.

The guy was still there.

Rider: Cancel na.
Me: oh! Sorry I tot u have.
Brought my phone put of the pocket it was remaking about 15seconds. I cancelled on "riders item doesn't fit".

The mumu guy got a bike, carry him load waka.


Nonsense, people you want to come and dirty my car for me plus take AC untop N400.

We drivers too have to be discipline as well if you see trips like that reject them and by the time 4-5 drivers reject the person head will reset.

I concur. Same way I cancel for wait times of over 8 minutes. Uber pays for such, Bolt doesn't. But like you, underlying aim is for riders head to reset, and desist from such going forward.
