Thanks bro
Welcome sir. I can teach you how to use Google maps for ehailing ... you will be able to navigate anywhere once you use your good customer service skills to request drop off location from your rider. It will take about 3 hours and will cost you nothing. Just reach out to me when you are ready

Hello, just learn how to use the apps ( Uber or Taxify), Google maps and good customer service ... Trust me, there will be no where in Lagos that you won't be able to take anybody to

Hello house.

I want to get my car registered on Uber platform and drive once in a while. But my problem is that I don't know Lagos routes very well. Please how can I cope?

Is there anybody with similar experience when he started?

I remember a rider I picked from LSDPC estate Isolo around 2:30pm to Eko Hotel, VI. She wanted to change dollars and then for me to return her to her estate. The journey to Eko Hotel took about an hour, with fare around #2,000. I ended that trip and collected my fare. For the return journey, she now wanted to pay the same #2,000. And there was surge in VI because it was closing time. I told her it's not possible, and explained surge to her. Eventually she agreed to #3,500 after much talk
nitigriti:
I have a simple operational policy - I don't do return trips. In fact, once I get to the final destination, I politely end the trip because "somebody is waiting for me at the airport". I collect my fare first, then we now discuss this new trip you want me to do, with me asking the rider to get a trip quote from the app first, which I will then use to decide how much I will charge. For example, I had a female rider I picked around 11pm from an estate in Ogba to Gbagada. We got to her place around 12 midnight and then she asked if I could take her to Egbeda, after she showers and freshen up. I told her yes, but that I will end this trip first, collect my fare and then bill her #1000 for wait time of 30 minutes and trip fare of #4000. I live in Egbeda, so it was pretty convenient for me. She agreed and we did the trip after she freshened up.

Some riders can frustrate you ehn....
This one told me she will do a return trip within somolu and i agreed.
I thought she would just be done within a short time...
5mins
10mins
14mins.
I just called her: madam i have waited for so long i think i have to go now

Rider: wait for me please, shebi my trip is still reading?

Me: yea, but i can't wait anymore, waited pass 10mins and that's over the bar for me

Rider: why cant you wait, am i not paying you? Just wait lemme finish. (then she came out)

That's when i realized she was doing her nails stuff.
I just kicked the car, was doing a reverse and ending the trip simultaneously. Then she was shouting: ok how much is the fare? How much?

I shouted back: N600.
I didn't even wait further if she will bring the money. I just zoomed off.
I didn't rate her low, left it at 5star, i didn't report to taxify cos i know i wont get my money.

As i moved like 300 meters away, a request came in and lo: it was her, i didn't accept, i didn't mind if i lose 1% out of 99% activity rate....

Sometimes wait pays after you have done like 15km or more and rider ask for some time so you continue or take them back... I can wait even 30mins for that... Not this type biko...

In my black market, I pay only #500 extra per 25 litre keg of fuel I buy. I still buy at #145 per litre, wait time about one hour. I know how to ginger those area boys ...

No not at night because of miscreants that hang out there at night. They don't come there during the day because there is a police patrol van that parks at the junction frequently.
Safe places to chill in VI at night - Areola Odeku, anywhere, on both sides; Eko Hotel Roundabout/ Sanusi Fafunwa, Ozumba Mbadiwe etc
Schiphol:
Is the place also safe at night?

The v6 Honda Accord 2000 'baby boy' that's going for 35k, thank God I didn't collect this useless car. On the test drive it engine over heats, ac slows the engine down, engine goes off by itself every now and then in traffic and the list goes on and on. The partner even has a clause in her agreement that makes me her personal driver.

Uber is not just consistent. They came up with good structures and standard but later came down big time. Maybe very soon, they'll accept cars of 1990 upwards. People have invested, at d end uber left them high and dry. They started with 2009 cars, later to 2006 soon 1990. Well I won't blame them. I'll blame our useless govt. Millions of graduates and able body men ventured into d job cos of d hardship and high unemployment in d country. Demand and supply is affecting the drivers right now. Buhari is a useless man!
For Uber partners/drivers in the house who are wondering why demand for e-hailing services is low right now, here's the reason - schools are on long holidays! Anyone who has been in transport business in Lagos for sometime will know that anytime schools go on summer break, everywhere becomes dry. Transport fares will be cheap and roads will become free. Just thought I should share this
