bunmiano:
I've been a member of Nairaland since 2012 and I'm very frequent with the business section.

I have a very serious issue that has been a pain on my neck and I will try as much as I can to summarize everything

I sent a sum of N1m to a Uber taxi driver's account number on the 20th October, 2018. This money was a part payment bill for one of my family members who is battling with a life-threatening health issues. That happened about 4 weeks ago.

This is how the whole thing happened

A friend of mine paid me a courtesy visit and when he was about leaving, I used my rider app to request a ride for him and the driver came and took him to his destination. He told my friend the estimated cost of the fare was N4,800 but my friend didn't even bother to check because he felt he probably would not lie about it.

My friend called and told me the fare was N4,800 and I requested for the Uber taxi driver's account number after which I made the payment. The next day (20th October), I needed to make a transaction of N1m to someone for a part payment bill of my family member's treatment oblivious of the fact that I actually made the payment to the Uber taxi driver's account number. This was because I added him in my beneficiary when I wanted to make the payment.

I went to the rider app to get his contact, only for me to realize he actually inflated the fare from N3,400 to N4,800 which I literally paid for. You can see he's not an honest person but I wasn't really bothered about that.

I called and pleaded to him to refund the 1m I sent to his account. At first, he acted as if he didn't receive any money but after series of calls, he later confirmed it. I sent my account details to him and he promised to refund me on Monday as it was weekend.

Monday came and the dude started acting funny. He would pick my calls and remain silent. There were times he gave the phone to a lady to talk to me. Sometimes he yelled at me to stop disturbing him, and a point, he even stopped picking my calls

I mailed Uber and narrated everything that transpired. They responded requesting for evidence to back up my claim which I provided. I took screenshots of the first (inflated fare) and second payment and attached it to my massage. They responded telling me I should exercise patience and that they will look into my issue

It's been 4 weeks now and Uber has been lackadaisical towards this issue. I have messaged them several times and they seem to be less concerned about it.
With the way Uber has been acting towards this issue, one could conclude that they're trying to cover up this guy. Someone that can easily call and resolve this issue.

They have just been acting like they're more concerned about their own pockets than customer's satisfaction. I expect them to have taken up the issue for properly investigation despite providing solid evidence.

Please everyone! I have tried and I'm already fed up. Their customer care is my last resort but they have been nonchalant despite knowing the name, vehicle type, and license plate number of someone working for them. Even the Uber driver in question has failed to refund the money and has been avoiding me.

I went to the bank recently and his account has been frozen but I haven't been able to get my money

This country is just messed up. Even the police aren't helping matters. They are demanding their own share of about 150k

Mods please help my situation by pushing this to the front page

Below are the screenshots of everything

I just hate to offer advice to dumb people. At first, you sent 4800 to him instead of 3400 without checking. Again, you mistakenly sent him a million naira. Who makes such foolish mistake?

Well, good luck.

Sleep over doesn’t exactly refer to random gals. Most people see sleepovers to mean a night of sex bt that shudnt be the (major)reason. I think if u gona marry sm1 a sleepover wud be just fine to know urselves better and differently. Sex or whatever doesn’t necessarily have to happen then unless it’s the major focus or reason for ur relationship.

Lol
Keep fooling yourself

She can sleep over for 3 months under pretence.
When becomes your wife, you will know her true colour

Fierce11:
I know that the instablog guy is truely a vagabond bastard but, did he ask Linda to tell the world who he is or, has she suddenly resumed her usual stupid posts because Kemi claimed to have stopped trailing her? Smh.. Linda should tell us who her surrogate employee is biko.. That matter is more important to us.. Exposing Instablog owner's identity did not hide her "barrenity".. She should do the needful.

kimbraa:
Yes, it's a job. I'm sure she modeled for the under wear and you won't believe it if she says how much she took for the job.

BTW, stop calling people whòres unnecessarily.

Modeling is Never a job!!!
Anything that doesn't require skills is not a job and will never be.
Anyone can do it.
Nothing special.
It's job that our society dignify a lot of lazy goats.

Get that into your thick skull.

Wasted whọre


What does she do for a living?

She'll claim some nedia fuckery and modeling crap... IS MODELING A JOB

adegeye38:
Christianity is not a religion, its an experience, its not a practice, it is life itself, its you having a personal relationship with God and experiencing him in another dimension, its having prayers answered, encountrring the holy spirit and growing in God's light, thats y Christianity is special, its not theoretical, its real and it can best be experienced if you have given your life to Christ

Shut up!
Since you can't see beyond your nose,
You people just talk rubbish to console yourself.
Keep fooling yourself. Nothing is still going to change...!
