Bolt will soon block me, pilotz, pls, what's the new format?

Pearl1910:
Why will u neglect N100?
What if I add N500 to d advisory price, thats still less than recommended fare, right? But the highest amount now will be far more than the recommended price. What can u say about that?

Pearl1910:
Don't forget the question was how do u know ideal/fair/correct price? Driver is a novice and doesn't know.
Whether rider has reduced from recommended price or added to it, is still unknown to the driver.

Think of this question again and answer to d best of your knowledge.
The answer you gave before has been punctured.

Do the same thing I did.

1. Request the ride with different fares less than d recommended fare and screen grab what drivers are offering.

2. Request the same ride with a fare higher than recommended fare and screen grab what drivers are offering.

Let's see the result.

My conclusion is that the last of the 3 amount at each time will be different. Because u have inputed different amounts each time u requested.

Ur own conclusion is that the last amount is the recommended fare in cases where the fare is doctored. Meaning at all times u change the recommended fare the last amount remains the same on drivers screen.

Do this and show since u didn't understand my own

E be like say u no dey see road o...
Ha...could it be I am arguing with eerhhhmmm...egbami o...wo whatever u say is correct.

Pearl1910:
Even a primary school pupil understands what I posted. Look at the pictures again and read the text carefully.

Now look at the pics below from a trip I just saw now now...and explain to the house what happened here.
This is in relation to Rider being able to input ridiculous amount if they area still using the old version. In that version all u need to do is put off ur data and input any amount, then Put it back on and find driver and the d app will allow it.
U r a novice in this game...sit down, chop popcorn and learn when I am talking.

Pearl1910:
First agree that the last option isn't a reflection of the ideal price for the fare
before u go on to whether u can price N500 or not.

Don't pretend to forget the main argument.

Viking07:
See my response above.

Viking07:
I don’t think we should be arguing about this tho.

Pearl1910:
Trip from Gbagada to VI
Picture 1...notice recommended price is 3,100 but I inputed 2,600

Picture 2...that's a driver bidding for 3,400. Meaning that amount is an option on his own screen. Most likely the last option.

Picture 3...I increased fare to 3,600. Bear in mind recommended fare is still 3,100
But u can see a driver choosing 4,400, meaning that's an option for him on his screen.

So the point is d last amount isn't a good criteria or guideline to determining the correct fare for a trip. Those prices are a function of what the Rider inputs. If u dont know that Gbagada to VI should be about 3k then u will be there either picking rubbish fares by riders or grow old picking the last option while other drivers are either picking d rubbish fare or putting the ideal fare and getting picked.
Sometimes the last amount tallies with the ideal fare but that's just coincidence based on the amount the rider inputed.

Pearl1910:
He is now arguing off point. Whether u can price down or not, that is a function of the version of app u r using.
The main argument is clear but him wan change topic

obinoral1179:
boss what do you say about this scenario.. pictures one is far from me and it's 1800 while pictures 2 is my location and I can't even edit the price to 1800...

Viking07:
Yes, you can price down recklessly. Same 2500 trip, I’ve priced it to 500 naira.

Like I said, the only solution is for the driver to have a knowledge of the actual amount.

MoonlightDrive:
Who should we now believe Gabrinch or Norhbird?.. All POV is highly appreciated.

xana101:
It doesn’t make sense going on indriver once there is surge on bolt.

Eyinola1:
I don mail, chat them tire bro,

Eyinola1:
E still dey shock me how indriver go block me because of payment glitch from dat useless Kuda bank, I hv been married to only bolt by force

Itsrm:
He has raised a very good point and I was looking forward to your response but this did not do justice to it at all

You have a rider and driver account with indrive, what you should do is put different amounts in your rider account and see if the last amount in the driver app remains the same.

That will automatically put to rest this unending argument.

Please note that I'm not saying he's right or that you're right. I'm just a neutral observer trying to learn from the argument.

Pearl1910:
I doubt if that's what he meant, cos d question was how do u know if a trip fare has been doctored by the Rider or how do u know if a trip fare is fair enough. So it's established d driver doesn't have an idea if the price is okay for that trip or not.
As for your style, U have a good guide, however there are some trips that will take less than 30mins but it's long distance...for u who is using a Muscle, u will waste fuel fulfilling such trip for less amount If u keep using the time alone. Also u might be loosing alot of trips cos rarely will u get a trip proposal of more than 2,500 for a 30mins trip. However it's good to use it as a benchmark.
Don't forget that 30mins estimate on map is never 30mins in reality.

Pearl1910:
Oga, there are always three options, in increasing order either with same proportion or in a series like manner.

Even if u put 10k for a 1k trip it will still give three options where the last one is about 12k.

If u put 2k for 5k trip, d last option will be less than 3,500.

So those options gat nothing to do with the real or ideal fare. It's a function of the fare quoted by the Rider.

Pearl1910:
What did u mean by the real fare is the third option circled?
