Please what’s going on?

You must have 4 green ticks to get the bonus...

Better luck next time..

igbosoupkitchen:
Interested in this advise cos i also have a car to put up, please can you give more details regarding this

The market is trying to pick up... I don't know your income expectations , but if it's the standard rate.

The driver will struggle to cough it out, and it's your golden goose ( vehicle) that will take a beating unnecessarily.

By February things will pick up. No stress on you, the driver and more importantly the golden goose.

Npala:
Guys. I am looking for a driver for either rental or hire purchase option. 2007 Toyota Corolla available. Purchased tokunbo december 2020. Haven't been used on ehailing. Driver must reside within Festac , Ago Palace way or isolo. Send a text to 08051968728. Please indicate your nairaland moniker in the text. I want a driver from here. Thanks.

Why not chill till like February.? That way your car won't suffer much.....

suco01:
Someone should please help me with this. After servicing I noticed this on my dash

Probably means you hv gotten to the 3,000/5,000km on your mileage. I believe you have done the service..

It's easy to remove....

Slickleo:
Since 6am no request on Uber festac I jst Dy miss bolt

Its everywhere, even bolt.

Come to think of it, I still see those Moove cars in January, how are they meeting up? Cos even if they get preferential treatment from Uber.

Right now, Uber can't manufacture riders out of the thin air for them.... I'm just wondering..

kanuisagoat:
Opportunity for some drivers to cash out

I think PHC has the highest rate. The fare is N85/km..

Taxi drop in PHC is not cheap, same for Owerri, that's y Bolt is having a headway there.

Fact that the parcel guy said a lot of drivers were declining means the Abule Osun is not a driver's preffered destination.

Even with d winter, I won't go to Alakija, ojoo, satellite town, mile2 and its environs.

Kudos to the op for being considerate....,

Horngha:
Please house, who can help me with bolt inspection office

Depends on where you reside?

If you @ Agege, iyana ipaja, dopemu axis, go to conoil filing station @ Mangoro.

Abule egba. Go to Mohagafar filling Station, amusan street,

Activity 92%

Thanks for the tips house
Really appreciate but this hustle is draining o

Don't listen to Uche n keep moving Lagos up and down.

Pace your efforts.... Reserve strength for weekends.

Positioning, quality trips over volume of trips.

You have been baptized..... More wins ahead..

Felicity0001:
Bros it will be far much better you buy a land in Ibadan than going to that place because by the time the lagos-Ibadan rail kicks star you would have made a return trip to Ibadan than a single trip to that place ooh... So be wise and don't allow those stupid agent deceive you pls.

Very true. Thanks.

Babadee1900:
Quite far.. Still under development, no major landmark there but I think it’s close to where Alaro City is been developed.

Someone told me they enjoy steady power supply but security is not optimum.

BoboKush:
Also notice..since yesterday I'm actually confirming they give 5star and they submit it in my presence yet 4.2 no gree change..... Have done couple of trips that I'm very sure of the 5 star

Try and reflect on the rides you have had in the past 3 days.

Is your ac functional?..

Do you make calls while driving?..

Don't allow people smoke in your car? Cos the nicotine smell gets absorbed into the car, you won't smell it due to conditioning, but a new rider will catch the waft of nicotine, an average rider will form an opinion at that instant.

Your driving pattern? Is it smooth? Do you slam brakes suddenly ( this can happen once in a while, but shouldn't be the norm).

Ask rider, do you have a preferred route or we follow Google map.



During this period, If you observe your rider is using a face mask as he/she is approaching the car, then try n use one too.

Felicity0001:
Ha! Boss this is base on a lot of parameters oooh. Like of your farm location, agr of the cassava(12-18months are always expensive), spacie, the season/time at which you're selling, how well planted the farm is, maintenance of your farm, animal invasion and a few more.

Like in Benin where my farm is situated, we at feltheoagrofarms sold an acre for N250k immediately after the lockdown.

Thanks boss. How long was this harvest of yours, 6 months? 9, 12.

@ Felicity,

Pls what's the market value of 2 acres of cassava at full maturity.

lagusboyyy:
I understand you bro.

But, all the same, that price is outrageous.

There are still some clean title 2015 Toyota Corolla for sale, for even 4 million, so why now pay 2.4 for 2005 model?


Just like how English media overhype their football players, thats how Nigerians overhype 03-07 Toyota Corolla.

2015 Toyota corrolla / 4 million car is way too much for Uber biz,

tunbe:
Please is it advisable take a tokunbo toyota corolla 2005 model at the rate of N2,400,000. From my office cooperative multipurpose. I will be paying 50k monthly for 4years from my salary. I wanna use the car 4 bolt. Please is it advisable.

Good deal.

Listen to this: Drive it yourself. That is the Only way you will pay back in quick time.

Crvrider:
I guess its different strokes for different folks. Uber and short trips. I wonder how you guys who do uber squarely survive it. Uber knacked me 3trips back to back and none of it was above 1200naira despite setting destination to Ikeja from lekki, they claimed that rider was heading towards my destination...I weak!

I entered lekki with a ride on indriver for 5650k, rider gave me 6k. Got out with a ride of 3.5k.

A friend did a trip on uber, trip ended 200naira oyinbo give am 300naira

Indriver works fine for me.

Bro, I don't know how they do it o esp d Moove guys, who have no options.

Part of the reasons that made me leave their app, na those short trips.

I have driven more than 2km to pu. Only to take the trip it was a card trip, end trip I saw ₦300. For a corrolla, i almost got crazy that day. Different emotions running through me.

Even Keke from Ogba to college road makes more than ₦300. without any yeye protocol of smiling, courtesy and all that balderdash in the name of customer service and ratings.

kodred:
Actually they have much to lose with this new NIN reg. Where can I get sim for 200?

.

Options yapa for the rider

*You have an allowance of 7 sims to one NIN.

*It will take a loooong time to burn through 7sims. . Moreover, ban is just 24 hours, after rider has cancelled like crazy.

*friend can request for a friend.

kanuisagoat:
Bolt also blocks riders when their cancellation goes beyond a particular threshold. I don't know what the threshold is for now.

Its also the 24 hour block followed by one week and the indefinite or 2038

But they/ riders don't have much to lose.

A ₦200 sim will get you a new acct on Bolt. Not so for the driver.

Dell screen, how much to fix it? and you said 30 mins

Otunbalai:
Thanks....I used 4 thousand naira fuel to make 10k ..which I think is high ....

10k net or 10k gross. If it's 10k net ( after commission)

I don't think that's high for a camry. If it was a regular corrolla, then surely that is too much consumption.

eyinola:
U must hv ac and car charger ooooo lol

Just 6 trips. Look at her rating. It says the kind of rider she is.....

Declining of trips and cancelation affects your rating.... Particularly card trips.

I cancel and decline trips regularly, my ratings too flunctuates likewise...


Bolt's system of rating is not transparent one bit. I would give Uber credit for that. Even indrive has a more credible approach.

For Bolt, if you don't take the trip, you are not making money for them, so they will axe you for that.

@ shollywendy. Congrats... That's some serious "manning...up."

CheerfulGiver:
Youre right. An average driver nets over 100k

And that's why the contest needed 20 to 30 drivers to post earnings so that highest earner will be awarded. It was never about saving. He made it clear. But there's desperation to paint him as bad guy because of his business practices , therefore they always try to find holes where there are none, or just dig a hole anyway.

Read up... No one is interested in how he runs his business....

No one gives a hoot whether he is a fleet manager or not.

He comes off with an aura of condescension... the issue I suspect is , the members here won't stroke his ego.. No one has that time.... If he wants people to hail him, his drivers are there.

CheerfulGiver:
Hello chief.

Your fawning sycophancy is nauseating.

Simple contest. Earn 800k in November and December, get 10k. No Maggi added, no salt, nothing. Just earn 800k and post your dashboard. Very plain and simple.


[b]Then she comes because she has beef withthe guy that started the contest or the need [/b]to be constantly in the picture, I don't understand - adds Maggi, pepper, ginger, garlic, yam, beans, to an existing contest, effectively hijacking it and being proud that she hijacked it.

She should have started her own contest with her own _fucking rules. It's clear as daylight. She should have stayed out of the existing one, and I stand firmly on what I said.

The same authority I don't have over her shouldn't be lorded over me or anyone else.

She can instill a culture of success for you and the other spoon fed sycophants, without knocking down the culture of the next forumite.

Who cares about book balance? Did you earn 800k or not, and where is proof? Simple contest.

Try and read up on the thread. Jp didn't start any contest.

Olayetan:
dru23


check out my net for 3months, Nov/Dec alone is over 800k.

Looking @ your figures, 26k can't be fuel for 4 weeks of driving in December.
Do you agree now that saving 100k/ week is a tall order.?

Cc: godfather.

deedee44:
I have an office job paying 200k monthly.

I hear uber drivers make 800k in 2 months.

I came to this thread and saw dashboard of over 800k true true.

I quit my job at the end of the month (December) and used all my savings to buy a car to be driving myself with the hope of doubling my salary.

I start driving in January but gross 200k (net 110k) at the end of the month.

Subsequent months, gross increase to averagely 320k (net 170k) every month

Then i realize that the 800k is only for December rush with mad surge, and after commission and fuel money are deducted, it is actually around 460k net for the 2 peak months.

Then I come back to nairaland to swear for the person that posted his dashboard without explaining the deductions and the stress I have to go to before I can achieve it.

Now instead of my dream of 100% increment in income, I'm stuck with 15% decrement plus hard labour. (Yes, driving up and down for over 12 hours daily, 6 days in a week is hard labour. You'll age with speed)

This is the best way I think I can explain why it is misleading to just post dashboards with high earnings without tobacco-like warning.

Very true. Baba you nailed it.

topsydee007:
Thanks bro.

Fine your response u know Abuja Well and those low life AMAC thugs in those places u mentioned is are ready to frustrate life out of you.

I really appreciate

Since you already drive on the platform. It's no biggie.

However, be prepared for some things that normally you won't see in Abuja....... Traffic. and poor road network.


The Lagos market share is huge and robust, thousands of miles ahead of Abuja. Asides from ehailng, there is always something else to do in Lagos if you are willing.

Read up on the thread, from last year, check
Xghost post, on Airport matters and time maximization , the dude did justice to it.

You also have an opportunity to join the 800k geng .

Welcome.
