Forget, bolt is still useless whether they suspend the nonsense acceptance rate

Their pricing is so worst now.

I sight You Pearl. You have come to do what you know how to do best: Voltron defender of the Universe

Lolz...if u ask me if I prefer Bolt being flooded with drivers or for it to remain an exclusive app only for sorgie men what do u think I will say?

Always call the number on the Proof of ownership to confirm the car is for sale.
Always check if the vehicle was registered with the correct VIN.
Always cross check with stolen vehicle database if there is any incumbrance on the vehicle you are purchasing.

Vehicle Licence is on State level, so if they sell an already registered car as toks, the only way u will know its already registered is if u try to register it in the same State as the initial registration.

Engraving devalues ur cars second hand value but it will make it unattractive to thieves and robbers.

Waooo...this is so sweet. I like the relationship you have with your workers.
This should be encouraged.

It made my day.

Make person no go dropout from school finish, still con dropout from uber job. Try to dey mention names

Lols...I discovered good education and inate/inborn wisdom contributes to if a person will be successful in his lives endeavours.
If u no get ogbon and u no get good education omo, e go hard to succeed in anything u do, no matter how simple.
And when d person fails, he will never blame himself or pick learning points and do better moving on. They will always blame d system, their tool or other people for their failure.

YeyeGbami:


This guy sabi chop life.

Delta man and chop life na 5&6
Igbo man go face him business, build house while wearing rags.
Yoruba man go dash woman all him money.
Hausa man go enjoy life and marry more wives. But the one wey marry 1wife, na him children dey enjoy

If u don't like ehailing but u are desperate to make ur hard earned money, u can just do ehailing for 1 year, save up and go into what u want to do.

I will not accept dropouts and failures coming here every now and then to castigate or talk down on ehialing business.

pope191:


I don’t think anyone want to argue about job advantage, but it is what it is. Where I was yesterday wasnt where I am today and don’t pray to be in same place tomorrow. Like I wrote up there, I only drove for 2 days this week. The reason why you see me here right now is just because of the rain. If it was when I started out, I would have been out there chasing surge. We thank God for life and appreciate the little things we’ve worked hard for.

One of your uncle feeling used than the other. Make God protect both of them. E hailing is not hard for me, nah wetin make me stick to indrive. I don’t even see it as hustle again. The thing is just there. I can always use my free time to drive around.

About holiday, nah you ask question and nah you still answer em. My question to you is how much do you think it will take to go on holiday. We have crazy mentality here. An average oversea folks save money for the purpose of holiday. They may use 8 months for that project, it is part of their lifestyle. Why don you think an average Igbo man goes home in December and spend like 2 week before resuming his hustle? Boss focus on piling your money, leave plenty talk for Mathias.

Anyways we no come world come suffer… I deh try too in my little way in other not to be like one failed driver. All these fancy restaurants do you think you can’t flex there once in awhile. Put 80 for pocket, you go eat for Farmcity, still carry one Lekki baddie go home from there. Life no hard, nah we deh undervalue ourselves. Boss you too no small inside world.

And 80k is just 2-3days earnings o.
Na mentality and exposure dey worry most of us. Although I don't encourage the take away o
I know a driver that has put his mum, wife and mother in-law on salary. Even though I tell d guy say make him establish first, and make him follow chop life too. But the point is he makes enough dough to be able to accomplish that.

Luxurydriverng:


The bottom line is that some job/hustle give you a better quality of life, I have 2 uncles one transport the dead all over the country while the other one retired at 60 from CBN, fast forward to today the one that drivers interstate is looking way older than the one that retired from CBN despite been younger in Age. Ask your self despite all the money you make driving can you afford to take a month or even two weeks off the driving work to go chill in a resort somewhere within Nigeria with your family? I guess the answer is no. You see despite the hard work one can't afford time off.

Am sorry but the answer is a resounding YES! One just has to plan his life. I agree personal development and continuous investment in self development is a must. This applies to every profession and life endeavour. U can't code at an advanced age, so in everything u do, d key is to plan for the future, not necessary an exit plan but plan for a day u will not be able to do that work again. Do a business that can scale-up (replicate) or start up a company that can run even when u aren't there. My two cents

Conner44:


Yes my little sis. At her house in their bath I saw it there. The smell alone I fall in love. Papaya. I will never forget. Its the first and last time I witnessed what they call bleaching. It was mistakenly because I didn't know. Just 2 weeks oga my face begin peel

Same Papaya that works well for your own skin? me highest vaseline or pears cocoa I use, most times I don't. For soap it's all those Eva variations I like using. Before it was imperial lather.

U be village man
Say ur skin peel no mean say e dey bleach u. Might be exfoliating ur dead old bad skin cells to give u the fresh n smooth skin that will glow n shine.
Eva soap wey I dey use wash boxers na him u dey use for ur skin? Imperial leather ?? see chop life o, dress tight, smell good, make ur skin glow (whether ebony or kupa) and take care of your health. U earn enough to do that.

If you are fair, use carrot soaps and cream below. Take water and fruits often, you’ll be just fine.

Where can I get it abeg?

Twilight2:



Please do you on AC while driving?

Bcs my passengers are always requesting for AC

Let me hear from others if they use AC while working

Yes o, AC is always on except rider says I should put it off. Sometimes even when I am driving to pick up, AC is on, depends on d heat outside. This heat isn't smiling. Me wey suppose to be oyinbo don black finish.

Omoapena:


Who dey even get time to think of dress sense for the hustle, but at least, wear clean cloth and have air freshener in your car....

Says the man who bought a fuel guzzling Hyundai Sonata to use for be ehailling. How will u say ur dressing is not important?

Glithronix:

Okay, baba.

Much respect, sir. 🙌

Omoapena:


Nothing like you don't know, the price is now fixed, maybe a little will be added as bonus if you encounter traffic but if you take longer route thinking it's reading or your rider tell you to branch a restaurant, supermarket and co coz they feel it's reading, it's definitely not reading.

So, let your riders know that there's no branching anywhere or going to another location that is not added on the app.

Making a seemingly definite statement and adding maybe again right after is a contradiction.
Price is not fixed. Is the bonus tgats going to be added if there is traffic not your money? There is been no much traffic again since 3rd mainland bridge opened. Bolt is getting more accurate with d estimate and its giving u the higher margin as compensation for an increased fare. This means its very unlikely that u will surpass that estimate. But in d case u have to wait, stopover or reroute mid trip, ask rider to add the stop, if u have to follow another route or there is traffic, the fare will read accordingly.
I just finished a trip now that was supposed to be N1,900 but rider said I should take her back home that her customer has canceled, I drove back and ended trip and it read N1,300.
In d morning I took a trip that was supposed to be N3,500 but rider had a stop out of the route, after the trip the fare was N5,700. So, what are u telling me?

Omoapena:


No HP boss
Outrightly.


Kindly explain this if bolt price isn't fixed, I started trip and end it immediately and they charged 2800

I don't know o,
Maybe its to discourage offline. Dey done see say Una wan send them back to their village.

Make person come collect this Hyundai Sonata 2011....

Na free? If u go do HP. We can talk business

pope191:



This come off like drivers don’t always have the best deal on Indrive. Obviously they do and drivers just don’t enjoy Bolt, unless there’s surge. Take away Surge and Bonus from Bolt? You’ll see them dancing naked in public. Most of the things riders get away with on Indrive, can honestly be heaped on the drivers. Drives do have a choice to look away.

Even without surge I still gross 60k on a full days job on Bolt, 15k fuel and 15k commission leaves me with 30k take home. With surge, I take home between 35k and 50k.
With all the good stories u guys make of Indrive, I am sure these figures are dreams, desires and aspirations to an average Indrive user. And before u give me tales of having freedom of choosing where u go to. I can tell u for free, u don't select trips as much as I do.
So tell, how is having d best deals still keeping u lagging behind on ur daily take home?

Omoapena:


Nah fixed price o, I took a trip from mushin to eko hotel, it brought 5600 as estimate and the route it showed was eko bridge... I passed 3rd mainland bridge thinking the KM to be covered will be higher than passing eko bridge and thinking the money will be more than 5600 but I was surprised it's that 5600 it brought without discount or anything.


And, most of the trips have been taking, it is exactly the amount it brings when the request come in it will still bring at the end of the trip, whether you cover more km than the estimated route or not, nah still same amount.

Passing Thirdmainland through Adekunle and passing Eko bridge is not any different.
Una eye don too big such that even with the increment in fare Una no still appreciate am, na so so complain and the error part una go see. Before will u collect 5k without surge from Mushin to eko hotel?

Well... in my own experience my fares are not fixed, the extra enter Rider Bonus and is paid to me like a card trip. d fixed fare is in the Rider side, if u have a stop over, longer route or traffic the fare will still increase even though the estimated price is a higher band.

Omoapena:



This fixed price bolt is doing doesn't make any sense to me.

Make I go register my new car, maybe it will be put under comfort category...I go just tick only that category so any trip I get will be worthy...

Who said Bolt is doing fixed price?

pope191:


If only Pearl with admit to this. Bolt messed up real time. It’s not about profit, but the way they treat drivers like junkies.

Lolz...I never approved of Bolts behavior.
All I keep saying is Indrives style is not the best, no rider will willingly set a price that will be favourable to u as a driver. Imagine having a market that customers set d prices or get it deals at the barest minimum price. Profit will be at lowest.
If not for Bolt, all those juicy trips u enjoy on In drive will not exist.

northbird:



But the question still begs for answer, Do you have the patience?
A user of Bolt will be frustrated by the workings of Indrive.
Can you sit for hours gisting and waiting for that offline client? .. does your persona fit that type of work schedule

This is what I wanted to say. When I use Indrive, I feel like I am wasting my life, I feel depressed and mad bored. So the question is is he built for this?...
Secondly, this hussle is to do and raise money and expand or move to other things. Will airport taxi and hotel chauffeur help achieve that? What's the profit margins daily, weekly etc.
Very few people patronize normal cabs now in Lag especially that Ehailing is everywhere.

northbird:



Readadream, You got this image from the alert
they sent to you.
You are the first person that actually provided proof .. cos the angle of that capture shows its an elevated one.

But I have been telling u since 19kokoro that elevated cameras capture vehicles too. Both for expired documents and for traffic offences like beating traffic light.
