Much respect, boss.

Kaymaxi2222:
yeah they do bro once you click I am here before the rider cancel they will collect there commission....and its crazy cos na double lose for the driver it don happen toe twice now to click am here for me na war oo ......imagine the fuel I wasted to the location and then the commission I paid for a trip that did not happened ...I just dey wait for the day I will go to there office of they have one

@the bold - NO.
The money will be added to your refund purse.
The only case they will remove your money if a rider cancels after you had already clicked arrive is when you don't wait for 5mins at the pick up point, then cancel it yourself as customer didn't show.
If you cancel with I don't want to take this order, they will remove your money. Reason is cos you already called the person before you get to the pick up point, or you already clicked I've arrived.
Sometimes, when you clicked arrive and customer cancel afterwards, it will notify you that customer had cancelled and it is added to your refund eallet.
Other times, when you already click arrive and customer cancelled after that, it will not notify you if you had already called the passenger before getting to the PU point, you will have to wait for 5mins, then cancel with Passenger didn't show.
The best way to sort this is, any passenger that picked you, don't call the person immediately, just send them a message that you're on your way. Once you get to the PU point, click I've arrived, then place a call.
If they cancel at the moment, your money will go to your refund wallet.
Phew! Indrive is very complicated in that aspect.
Much respect, boss.

Barbiturate:
So indrive charges commission when a rider cancels! This is nonsense.
I had positive 800 balance this morning, before work. Worked for a while, made #7700.....the commission entered negative #1500. I never cancelled any accepted request. Rider cancelled.

With 7700, I should have a balance of positive #30. I have negative #1500

This is not meant to be.
Check your activities for today from your first order.
Abi na negative of N800 u dey see as positive balance?
If no be so, baba, na to sharply report to their customer service.
Much respect, boss.

Welz:
if I continue on my current route, I'll arrive in 6 minutes. but if I pass through another route, it will be 13 mins faster than my current route . Google map don dey on colos on colos o

You need to update your G-map. You will notice the movement behind your arrow is still there. That shows that the map was picking the time you already spent and has not been cancelled.
I experienced it last, it corrected itself before I closed.
Much respect, boss.

Pearl1910:
The Original recommended oil for power steering is Expensive and hard to find. U will most likely have to import it yourself.
That's why people use transmission oil and it works fine.

Ooh, okay, sir.
Now I get it.
Much respect, boss.

Pearl1910:
Actually there is power steering oil but transmission oil works well too as a substitute.

So, is it not better to give onto Casar what precisely belongs to Cesar?
Much respect, baba.

Gentlelife50:
Better, I for say.
Because those Guys for just call one oil name give am then bill am

Smiles.
Much respect, boss.

Pearl1910:
He should take it to a gear master. Not normal mechanic. This one has passed ordinary servicing.
Gear oil for Toyota 2003 - 2007 is T IV, oil for 2007 and above is WS. Remove the gear oil stick, and u will see d recommended oil written on the stick.

I've forwarded a screenshot of this to him.
Much respect, boss.

Gentlelife50:
Power steering uses transmission oil, which one is Toyota power steering oil?
Una funny for here

Really?
I didn't mean he should go and ask for a customized Toyota fluid oooh.
I meant he should go to their shop and tell them he needs oil for his power steering, For his Corolla, they will give him what he needs.
Inside life.
Much respect, baba.

Gentlelife50:
Above all tell your friend to be preparing for the worst, changing of gear box.

lanrexdo:
IS going..otinnlo..he don they go.

Let him check the dipstick for the recommend gear oil.

Inside life. It is well.
Okay, baba.
Thanks.
Much respect, boss.

As funny as this sounds, you're right, boss.
I've shared the link of this platform to him since last year December, but he's too lazy to register. Him said him no get time. Smiles.
Much respect, boss.

sammiejr:
Good evening guys,

Please can I use "Abro Automatic transmission fluid" as power steering fluid. Just noticed mine is totally empty and my steering was making a noise.

My mechanic recommended it but I'm still sceptical.

My Car is a corolla 2006

Thanks

Transmission fluid for power steering
Go to those guys selling fluid and tell them you want to buy power steering oil for your Corolla.
The emptiness is a sign of leakage, check the hose for a cut, buy another one and replace it before putting the oil.
Note: na pressure hose it must be oooh.
Much respect, boss.

Good evening, house.
A padi using Corolla for the hustle said his gear always refuses to engage immediately when put in drive, until he matches and holds on throttle for like 10 secs before the gear picks.
According to him, this always happens when he's set to leave house in the morning.
I don forget to put it here since last 2 weeks he told me, na today him reminded me because he plans servicing the gear tomorrow and he also wants to know the best gear oil to use.
He doesn't want to take his mechanic recommendations yet. Smiles.
His Corolla is 03.
Much respect, bosses.

MrCarter577:
Legend wey no fit gross above 20k per day? That one na learner, no be legend

Smiles.
Person wey dey gross max of 20k daily shows that he's just driving part time.
Much respect, baba.

MrCarter577:
Firstly, are you a newbie? Why have you not grossed above 20k in a single day? What type of trips are you accepting?

Lol.
That brother wey you dey ask this question na legend oooh.
He will school a lot of us on the hustle, so, no think say him need any advice or motivation, baba.
Na only update him just updated us.
Much respect, boss.

ThatIgboBoy:
This is a truthful summary of what most e-hailing drivers face. You can't come here claiming u made millions without your vehicle suffering for it. If other drivers were as concise as this, it will enable people know how profitable the business is. But if you just tell people the millions you make without the challenges and setbacks you go through, there will still be doubters.

Smiles.
Na you go tell us say this is what you want to read.
That brother can't tell me he used 130k fuel to make such money. He must have been driving to work or other places with the fuel.
His highest gross was even 20k. That should tell that he has been driving on bolt on a lighter level while going to do some other work.
See the amount he made in a month, shey you self no suppose know say he just dey cruise drive ni?
Much respect, boss.

davit:
Jf you are not on Bolt with at least 1.7 surge, don't take trips to Sangotedo axis. Else, sorry is your case.

Abeg wetin dey sup for Sangotedo?
I checked the traffic condition there now, omoh, my mouth sealed.
Much respect, boss.

Masterkleenlaun:

Much respect, boss.

YeyeGbami:
Damn! I just did o. You’re right bro

Much respect, boss.

pope191:

God no go shame us all.
Much respect, boss.

As we finished the ileya prayer in the morning, everybody don dey go, na so I dey hear gbagaun from my back (bolt alert).
I was forced to approach this brother:
Me; brother, today is sallah day, you suppose dey house dey relax and enjoy yourself nahh.

The brother: (smiles), even the order self na to Ikorodu, I no want go to Ikorodu.

So, he ignored the order.

Before we stepped out of the praying ground, another gbagaun enter him phone.

I was just laughing. I be like, so, some drivers no like resting and enjoyment? At least for this sallah day as a Muslim. Omoh, e funny me.

As I dey like this, I don tell my chairman say na till next week I go resume. I'm taking the car to him this evening for some resting. He was surprised that I want to take a whole week off driving.
Abeg, make person rest jare.
Much respect, bosses.

dapotemi:
Yea that's it ....they ask me to complete my profile b4 I can take ride, and na only hackney permit remain..I later had a chat with their agent and she confirms it

I've never been requested of Hackney since I been using indrive. I Didn't even know they had a space for it self.
It is well.

Duplik8t77:
my oga. Yes boss. Started August last year. How you dey boss man?

I dey, baba.
You already a legend be that.
Much respect, boss man.

Duplik8t77:

Boss of life.
I greet you oh.
Been awhile. You don join the hustle?
Much respect, boss.

dapotemi:
Abeg who get sure plug for hackney permit and the cost...indriver block me for it.

Indrive blocked you for Hackney permit?
Hope no be for something else, boss?
Much respect, baba.

pope191:

Welz:
I see am too, I just dey laugh

Wallahi, it was a serious drama yesterday. 😁
Those guys made me ignore rides wey I suppose pick.
Much respect, baba.

XGhost:
It is not profitable bro. Last week I made the mistake of accepting a trip to crown sangotedo. Ordinarily I've long stopped going beyond Jakande unless I'm going home but I thought, Sunday, and i checked map before accepting, it said 1hr14 which was great considering I was going from the mainland (Airport Road). Na so map de update me, traffic is getting worse, small time again traffic is getting worse. Trip ended up being just short of 3 hours. Almost 2 hours from LBS to United Estate. Me and the rider wan mad.
Ended trip 11k, thankfully the rider tipped an extra 4k for the traffic and music.
Even if in 3hrs what I make is that same 11k doing regular trips, i won't use as much fuel as I did for that 1 trip.

Shebi na bolt you used.
Imagine an indrive driver come put head in that traffic on a fixed price.
This is why I don't joke with traffic monitoring. Before I step out, I always check traffic conditions on both mainland and island. That's how I decide on which trips I take.
At every completed ride, I park and go on and check all traffic conditions on both lands. I don't joke with my monitoring at all.
That's why I relax more, cos if I see everywhere red, I go just park and be playing candy Crush on my phone until I see say traffic don reduce.
Omoh, traffic is a killer of this hustle. Inside life.
Much respect, boss.

Pearl1910:
So all d Indrive requests to Ojodu-Berger, Magodo Phase 1, Isheri North, Opic what has been happening to them? Bro, drivers are picking and going. Some don't have a choice.
I took that trip because I had to drop something at home and continue my work. I also wanted to check if it is profitable if u stay in traffic with the new price. U know we are still establishing new facts on that based on d changes. If I didn't take that trip, my mind for no rest, as I would have been calculating how much I would have made and what I have lost. I was glad I still proved to myself that entering bad traffic is still not an option no matter how enticing that money may be. U will still make that amount or more with less flogging of the car if u just go back n forth a no traffic zone.
It would have been more than 3hrs if I didn't bypass from Ojota bridge, entered Oregun, down to shoprite, connect CIPM, forward to 1st gate, entered omole phase 2 back gate, burst out in main gate, U turn at road safety, entered the street after Bovas, exit the back gate and used inside ojodu to reach Berger.

I said indrive drivers would never pick a ride to Ojodu Berger, not sufferheads. Any indrive that picks Berger ride is a sufferhead.
Seriously, if by mistake, a driver picks to Berger and ends up spending 4hrs inside traffic, dem no born am well make him try am again.
Imagine a legend self had to be taking corner-coner and possible shortcuts and still ended up spending 3hrs inside traffic, some indrive drivers don't know road connections, they would follow anything map says or even ignore the signs and put head inside Berger traffic that says 1hr traffic ahead, thinking it's going to be a perfect 1hr true-true 😁.
I remember when Olowora was a sweet positioning area for me, God himself go send thunder on my head if I take trip to Berger.
Ikosi, magodo-CMD, I no dey near any order going there even if the price is sweet. Damn! Who would I report myself to if I pick them?
The hike in fuel price alone is enough to make a dumb driver wise up.
Yesterday, I was at Wole Olateju crescent (lekki phase1) relaxing, and indrive drivers started posting disses at one another on passengers' page . I was just laughing. Dem no dey telly person.
Drivers that picked rides to Berger yesterday will never dare make such mistake again, believe me.
Much respect, boss.
