Abi na J.pw.orld driver?


At Maryland, I received a trip request from cantoment, the Soldier man was standing by the gate already to take me in to his house, at that point, I knew he wanted to carry load. When we got to his house, Lo and behold,,, this bike was lying on the floor with some other stuff... I immediately told him I cannot carry them and cancelled instantly. Thereafter, I received another request in the same cantoment ( A Female) Guys, can you imagine that by the time I drove past the man's house, I saw another Corolla assisting the man to lift the bike into his boot. �......... interestingly, my rider needed to use the bank, so they caught up with us and we were literally going on the same route before we parted ways... So sad how some guys ridicule us ... ��‍♂️

Copied From WhatsApp

Rental spotted (some of them no get levels at all)

Naso other day, the trip I rejected a guy came to carry 6 people go Atlantic beach with loads and rice � cooler

Something terrible nearly happened to me yesterday.

People are really Wicked in this world. People no longer have conscience in Nigeria.

I was around Jibowu and got a request from one beast of many colours. Because this was a park, my spirit told me to stay sharp and frost. As I arrived, I was watching the body language of this mad man and knew already that all was not well. The way he was eyeing me mischievously and behaving all snaky told me that all was not well.

This young man told me to use reverse and enter the luxury bus park that he has some small loads he wants to load in my car. According to him, they are just "Shoes and Bags".

I decided not to drive in but park along the road and investigate. My people when I arrived, the pictures below are what I saw. I used my rider app to check the estimates from Jibowu to Lekki phase 1. Umunnem, what I saw e shock me! 2200-2550! I screamed Jesu! Why are people like this?

This Young man wanted to load a whole container of goods from China into my Darling car and take me to Lekki for 2200! Something am sure a Truck driver won't even accept 15,000 naira for. Yet he wanted to load it in my Saloon car for 2,200 naira. And he was thinking he is smart?

I have seen it all in this hustle. This world is really not my home... What a wicked generation?

To cap it all, he is my "Igbo brother". I spoke to him in our dialect and asked this animal if this were to be his car, will he like to carry all this load for 2,200? He told me how is that one his business? Is it not Bolt that fixes price? One bus loader there even told me all the Kabu Kabu he is calling first were telling him to pay 25,000 naira and that the trip will be twice! Yet, he wanted to do it one trip on Bolt for 2,200!

Am a businessman and I know the weight of those sac bags alone. Each of them weighs over 150kg! The four of them is over 600kg! While the total load is over 1,000 kg! Yet he wants to pay 2,200.

I even told him that any driver he calls should be an offline job and it shouldn't be for anything less than 20,000 naira because those goods am seeing there are worth over 2 million! He told me to getout. What a Wicked Belzebuul.

Guys stay sharp and frosty before this mothafuckas take food off your table. It doesn't matter if the person is your brother from the North or South. If your car dies, none of them will be there to help you. Basttards!

Drivers on rental will take it with even 1,500.

They need to meet up with their high target.

Naso yesterday I got request on boltscam around Gbagada, I quickly drove to pu to my greatest surprise I saw five riders 3 guys and 2 chubby ladies.

R. Oga we be 5 oh
M. I can’t carry 5 Na 3 be max
R. One of dem don talk say let’s cancel Jaare we took Taxify yesterday all of us and he no complain.
M. I’ll help you cancel here (naso I reverse slide arrive and cancel after 5mins) this people are going to ajah the trip of 5k+ which I Haven't gross 3k by that time.

But another driver came � right their carry 5 of them with ac and zoom pass where I parked.

No union in this game everybody just Dey do anyhow.

One Uber guy will still carry that load wey you refused shameless idiot.

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

Still looks better than Nigerian prisons of nowadays

donfortune48:
Maybe they yanked you off with a genuine reason.
Uber mostly yank people off without traceable reason bro. Other than reasons their system gave them.

And I think their system do the yanking most times without them verifying.

Bruv my account is active over 1.5yrs no issue. I don’t joke with my Uber account.

nwizu042:
Yes they can... go and ask...

Uber will block your account without doing anything.

It’s strange bruv

davit:
Na wa o. This ehailing work no be work ọ. You can be removed any time without notice. Wetin I do now, I no know. Abeg people still fully relying on it should have a rethink. I hope they will send my balance in their care sha?

Naso my brother..

But Uber no Dey owe Money dem go pay you your money.

And also, some of the major reasons why Uber Dey blocked account be say if you canceled too many trips (they must’ve warned you for this).

If you start trip without rider in your car.

If you have a physical abuse on your rider (slap, punch, beats etc).

If you lie on many cash trips that you didn’t received cash payments and they refund you.

If customer report you that you came with another vehicle which is different from the one you have on your profile (this one go make dem vex).

If you vex dropped rider on isolated area (rider rude to you around 9pm and you con vex drop him/her on top third mainland bridge) and he/she con report you before you write Uber, your account don go be that.

Rider got robbed by driver.

You didn’t return riders missing item(s)

NB: I didn’t claim you did any of these options but they can’t just yank you off without any reason(s).

Think about it Baba

starchris:
thanks for your response, what good car that is below 1m will you recommend for ehailing in naija

Civic 03-05, Toyota Corolla Bank type, Honda City, Toyota Avensis, Toyota Camry 03-05 4plug, Toyota Matrix, Nissan Sunny, Nissan Sentra, Kia Rio, Hyundai Elantra.

NB: if you’re lucky, you can get good naija used with 800k - 950k but don’t go for any v6 car oh

Saw this on our WhatsApp Group

Felicity0001:
I keep wondering how you think its ok for a driver to rent @15k or 20k when social gatherings, religious, schools, senior government workers, Int'A and most offices are still under locks and keys with some going into extinction.

Most importantly, drivers have restricted time to work which is from 6am to 9pm. Dont believe that 4am to 10pm scam, I'm yet to c a driver that goes online everyday at 4am.

Guy have you been driving these period? Have you seen the traffic situation in lagos lately? How many Long distance trip can a driver do in a do?
The other Saturday I did just 1 trip because of traffic, from Agege to Gbagada the trip ended N7+ I spent over 2k on fuel.

Do I need to remind you that uber is charging drivers 25% flat rate? With no incentives and no promotion??

I'm sure you're also aware drivers are responsible for hazard fee like lasma, police, touts, soldier and "my car" while most drivers share repairs and services is on them, part from some of us that are fortunate to have owners partners that does everything 100%

My last week total earning was around N30k to 37k as i was buying fuel I was demanding for receipt to keep tract of my fuel spending and at the end of last week I notice I spent a total sum of 14k on fuel. Lets assume no hazard payment and I'm renting at 15k or 20k how much would be left for me, my wife and kids.

Guy, abeg stop it oh!!! 20k ke

Bros reading this comment, makes Me feel emotional.

I used to be one of the best drivers that delivers on time (I delivers on mondays)

This is week 7 that’s I haven’t make any delivery for my partner simply because the work isn’t worth it anymore.

Am on HP, have paid total of 1.2 out of 3.2 (03 Corolla) up till this moment I’m feeling bad because I couldn’t meet up. I’m owning my mechanic almost 13k, passenger hub is making hell noise currently, crank shaft and engine needs ringing raising the funds already.

Last I did in a week is just 27k. If I deduct fuel and other stuff commission and all I’ll be left with zero.

I pity “we” drivers repairing our cars by ourselves is not an easy thing I swear. You’ve got to accept every trips and you can’t be so selective with trips because there’s competition and you might not get another trip in 3hours.

I’ can’t make an account of how much have borrowed from my wife’s salary to fix one or two thing from the car. Well life is all about win and loses.

Have been able to submit my cv’s which that’s not sure but anything I get there, I’ll manage.

Why am I lamenting? I want advice from my brothers out here. My decision is to drop this car make I find something else doing before my long lasting relationship with my partner will become something Very bad.

Because I don’t think I can Deliver over 30k+ he requires for remittance anytime sooner.

Oruko rere sanju Wura looo

I’ve tried my best after the easing of lockdown, have paid lastma, try cabu, did Uber/inDriver but yet I can’t gross 30k.

Please brothers I need mature advice

Thanks

Olayetan:
They didn't fix their price moreover, you can calculate their price using the distance & time covered.

Magodo to ketu isn't upto 25km, that distance shouldn't be more than 10km, maybe your phone miscalculated the distance...

Which phone are you using?

iPhone 8 mani?

It can never be miscalculated.

BOLT dont READ IN TRAFFIC
I REPEAT BOLT DONT READ IN TRAFFIC
IN FACT THEY’VE FIX THEIR PRICES FORGET THE 50# ALL NA Sakamanje

pope191:
and what now happen? Did d rider add anything?

I collect my complete payment.
But if I had drove to Ikorodu with the hell traffic the price is still going to be same.

Imagine!
Bolt is just pathetic

Ty207:
How can I review this price....from ejigbo to isherri north estate (after Berger)...4hour plus traffic including tollgate at airport

Similar thing happened to me recently.

My experience on bolt yesterday’

So I got a request from Magodo rider heading to Ikorodu around 4pm.

I put a called through and told her I’m not going to Ikorodu she said wait that she would like me to drop her at ketu which is fine by me.

Rider didn’t changed the destination so I drove to ketu by sweet sensation ended the trip.

Hmmmm to my greatest shock, I saw 2150 � damn

Bolt as fixed their price even if you stayed 2hrs in traffic is still same thing.

I drove 21mins no surge nothing

Bolt and inDriver are now in the same category.

Whoever doubt this, should calculate the price immediately you get a trip to the riders destination and tell us what happened after you end the trip

Hello comrades....my experience on Monday this week was sad and disheartening, infact I went home for the day on just 2 trips.
I got my 2nd request for the day from Bera Estate @ Chevron destination Navy town, with so much excitement with the hope of suggesting for an offline trip.i got to the pick up point a guy came out holding nylon bag and he hopped at the back sit and he said oya let's go....I told him where sir? He said Navy town and I told him if we can do offline but instead he declined then my mood changes and in my mind no wahala...
Long and short we got to mile 2 with heavy traffic and flood...I was so scared that the car will drink water..we will be in the flood for good 30 minutes with no movement and this guy sat at the back with his two legs on the sit ...making silly calls.
Anyway, he got himself introduced as captain and showed me a picture of his posture with a gun that he served in the North.
Suddenly, he said this traffic is too much oooo..that he would like to come down and continue with bike that he is already running late, so he demanded that i ended the trip which showed us 3,600.
He demanded for my account number which I gave him....the next thing he said that his boy at home will do it that I should not worry, he sent the details to the so called boy...and after like 10 minutes he called the so called boy and he said the network is bad that he would continue trying.
Meanwhile, this captain said he will give me his number so that I can call him for a follow-up.
Low and below I allowed him to go and I was on that mile 2 for 3hrs and more. Then it occurred to me that I have not seen the alert and I even checked my account online nothing.... immediately I called him he said let me call the boy....after 20 minutes I called again....he said I will call you back that he wants to change his cloth..... and I kept calling this line.....no response and the next thing was to block my line......then I now realize it is now done on me...I qickly call my friends to call the line...he pick and after hearing them he will block them ...till this moment nothing has been heard from him and I cannot access him anymore...my 3,600 gone.....Bolt have taken thier commission....
He claimed to be in Navy which I believe....below are his details
Name: Emmanuel Chibuike
Phone number: 08133901891
I am attaching details from Bolt
Please I need this our forum to call him to order and pay the services rendered.

Bros this guy insisting that someone has already called him and threatened me of sending parade to me. Some human being are just too wicked

Bye bye to Opay.

Hmmm

Whenever I look at people uploading earnings and show whatever they make I’ll just keep it cool. Because most of them don’t know the implications of what they’re doing.

Well I’ll tell una wey Dey upload earnings that you’ve coursed me big mess and am dealing with it personally.

Did you people know that there are drivers that mainly work at night? NO I don’t think you know but yes I’m the kind of driver that works mainly on the island at night.

Back then how I used to do my hustle before lockdown, I’ll manage to set trip using UBER to the island, on Monday morning. I will try as much as possible to reach 15-17 trips on Monday alone using UBER with my 12 hours driving time. (Yes is possible short trips were much on admiralty way)

I’ll exhaust my timing on UBER then proceed to bolt and hustle (I’m using bolt money for fueling and likely to have cash) I’ll close by 12-1am. I’m definitely sleeping on the island in the car.

Tuesday morning, I’ll wake by 4.30am to 5am clean up and brush change my wears (I used to pack my well dry cleaned clothes in the trunk) so Avoid looking down or anything from riders. Car been checked and I’ll try as much as possible to avoid trips to airport cos it’ll dull my day.

I’ll set my destination back to like Ajah or Sangotedo. I’m likely to get cos olosho will leave early in the morning to their various houses. From their I’ll be with my UBer 20 trips and 3% before 12pm. I’ll never rest I’ll be cashing till I get mainland trip back to where I reside.

I’ll use Wednesday to rest pack my cloth head out on the island on Wednesday night and hustle till day break (you that hustle in the morning likely to face traffic and the time you’re sleeping, I’m 100% cashing out) I know most drivers used to do like this except all the babas in the platform that their body can’t take it anymore.

I used to this hustle which I called “make little in the day and rest to enjoy the nights” Uber credit me almost every week with nothing less down above 25k since they started their 3% commission unless if you don’t wish to work.

I have sincerely never used Taxify for 2days before in my entire time of being hustle on ehailings.

My brothers the reason for my long epistle that affected me badly:-

1. I’ll have to hustle and wait during the day many hours without getting request

2. You most likely to accept all trips that comes in to avoid been deactivated

3. Your cars wear out quickly and nothing to show for it

4. There’s disadvantages of curfew timing

5. No night hustle anymore

I’m on HP I’ll have to repair the car myself (mind you, since the beginning of easing the lockdown have never remit my agreed weekly remittances because I’ve not been meeting up) my mind as being on it but the situations is unbearable. We hustling back then on smooth road like Lekki Ajah axis, we don’t know what god has done for our cars.

Now I know the real deal is just like Village people don start my matter put for table “have changed shocks, all sand protectors, panel work on silencer, danfo don commot side mirror, 2 tyres, and leakage”

I’m yet to change brake disk, hub, engine seats, my engine as started leaking can’t even detect where it’s happens but the damages is due to the bad road (abaranje) omo the work isn’t the same but then my Best boss don increase the weekly remittances.

Even the previous one I was unable to even remit because the whole work nowadays just be like magic I don’t understand.

Taxiscam will show you big figures but when you check your bank account and cash you have at hand, you’ll be confused like how, why, and where money goes you’ll even be suspecting wether rider steal you money.

Uber system is just the best they show you figures of exactly what you make.

So to you sharing figures up and down because it’s work for you continue oh. Just know you have brothers, sisters and families here you’re letting them be jobless.

We y’all know it’s isn’t easy for the car owners but then it’s isn’t our fault too oh.

When it was good times we delivered but this hard times especially we that had to repair any cost and maintenance of the vehicle and still remitting. Pls make una try and reason sometimes say before una drop that figures, you’re about collecting job from someone.

Stay safe

One of our driver share this on whatsapp group...

Hello great pilots in the house.

I want make una hear this one ooo.

I pick a rider from Vono Street, Ilupeju to Agbado Crossing. On my way coming back I was arrested by the police at Agbado Crossing Junction. They told me this is Ogun State and there is lockdown. I picked my phone and called the rider and she came to meet me. She begged the police but they refused to let me go.

While she was crying, the Chairman of the NURTW of the whole of Agbado/Alakuko saw her and asked what the problem is, she told him everything.
The chairman asked me to come. He asked me how much was my total money for the trip and I said #2,200.

He was surprised and he said, "YOU CAME FROM ILUPEJU TO AGBADO CROSSING FOR #2,200.

He asked me if I'm married and I said yes. He now said, "how do you feed your wife and kIds?"

Shame catch me because I know where the man was going.

He further said that we Uber drivers are under taskmasters. That how can you carry #2,200 from Lagos to Ogun State.

The rider was silent, she couldn't say a word.

The chairman later called one.of his boys and asked him to give me #2k. He called the police by himself and asked him to collect the #2k from me. He said the trip i brought here was a card trip and it was my first trip and the #2k was given to me by him.

That was how I was released.

The chairman told me finally as I start my car to go. He said, "o je lo wase mi se.".... "meaning, go and look for another work and be doing."

My people this was my experience today Saturday, June 27th, 2020.

Ty207:
Pls I need help oooo...they are demanding for 10k
I park at GTB st geogery college and I was making calls

They’ll delay your time. But las las beg them with 4-5k cash dem go release you.

Or if you have military personnel close to you then with 3k them go release your car tear that rubbish receipt.

Things like this can never happen During bubu’s reign instead, we’ll be hearing Buhari’s daughter went for holiday with Air Force 1.

Useless country

Guys please always be very careful when driving, especially on Lekki Epe exp way.

There's an Uber driver who hit someone around Marwa lastnight. According to him, the person is crossing and he couldn't see him but he knock him down.

Both him and the corpse are currently in Lagos Island hospital. I couldn't upload the voice note here but the driver is in custody.

It's sad that we don't have working system in our country imagine all those crazy fellow crossing under covered pedestrian bridge from Phase 1 to Ajah they don't use pedestrian. And also, from Custain to Maryland down to Ketu, they never use Pedestrian bridge.

I'm feeling for the young guy now Police go use am chop.

Well nobody can be too careful but God will continue to protect us and our family. May God help the uber guy in any condition he's currently in.

#stay safe
