You quoted the WRONG person (he definitely knows more than you do about the business) with the WRONG answer YES. You can't compare what the earning was when Uber started and what it is now. If you were doing Uber then with your positive attitude, you would own at least 2 cars by now.
When people share experience here it can at times come across as negative but it is for everyone to learn.
Lastly, no one is saying you shouldn't work but don't overwork yourself...Fatigue is a crazy karma.
I wish you the best in the ehailing world!

I honestly don't believe all dis, but I'll rest my case... Funny how people talk about car problems and you don't see some names, just complain about pricing and someone that has never thought of commenting just sprung up from nowhere, the most crazy one is working for 5 months without a day rest. Sir machine, I greet ooo

franksam2009:
which guy name starts with F lol I hope it's not me oo

Lol! No b u ooo... Nah Fahrenz

[quote author=dru23 post=77943051][/quote]Boss I expected more from you than using Nipsey as a yardstick... Regina must be a very hard working girl, but let me put that aside. If I can remember, there was no time your drivers are not doing good, until the day you complained of bad management, maybe you never get to see that coming.

jesusson2020:
I have done worst job carrying bags of cement, pushing wheel barrow and earn 2500 a day. From that 2500,i will enter motor and eat, sometimes I go home with only 1k. And not all the time I get job.

But with this I can buy shirts, shoes, use a better phone, pay my rent and even have a gf.

My broda God has bless me.

If your level is not Uber driving, quit and go do job that is your level. Leave it for us that is happy with it.

And u just registered April 21st? Pls do u have dat guy his name starts with F number. In fact can I ask why you just registered an account like 7 days ago? Internet just got to you? You tales will b of great honour if you display the millage of your car today and show us the new figure next week. Drop mic

2,500 from Airport to Lekki...

Ah swear down, d rider ask me to help her take her luggage up cos she can't take it up herself, got a 1k tip, its like I prefer taking luggage up compare to driving (fast 1k)

tunlapapa:
What taxify is using to deceive drivers is by showing you the gross earnings on a trip, You should be only concerned about what your gain is after a trip.
I am sure that your spirit won't be that elated if your were shown your actual income (2,635) on that said trip.

Well! I think its better, I have done airport to lekki on uber 2500 including toll... But lately taxify have been so bad and their fare is not stable, they frustrated me yesterday. I got a 1.4 surge from Jacob & Mew estate, while positioning in railway compound, raider was going to Ikeja... I rush down and beat all traffic just because of the surge, only to get to destination to see 1700 naira. As if that wasn't enough got a trip to Berger from their and I spent 1hr on the dot on that trip, only to see 1000, while my fuel has already blink empty. I have been swearing for dem since yesterday.


Note: I think island fare is not the same as mainland, just thinking... I did admiralty way from farmcity to the end of admiralty way with a stop ard forte oil 1200 naira, the raider called after alighting to confam price again.

It will not b well with taxify staffs, exempting the brains behind the app... But whoever is scammer drivers with surge. I repeat! It will not be well with that person(s).

ifyeez:
I dey use style dey observe una. For one corner

Boss I hail thy

brogxy:
I have been here but behind the scene watching how things unfold. Thanks

Abi my oga don join fence?

olusola2bello:
Lol same happened to me....they said my cancellation rate was very high....thats y i cant reject all these short trips again......today now short trips don start again.....barch beach to vi. Lekki to vi.....longest today has been lekki to marina.

Those ride are not that short, I'm OK with anything above 1000 naira, but 400 - 600, I'll prefer to collect cancellation fee

Gentlelife50:
The way these riders will be asking "Oga is your AC working"? You will think the AC is more important to them than where they are going.

It is more then important boss, the most painful one is when you on ac and the expect it to circulate immediately. Sotey a rider once said he prefer uber to taxify, their car a/c is confam... Me I just keep straight face like, you are on your own, since you know the difference between uber & taxify ride

olusola2bello:
Abeg egbons in the house.....help my case o still new here....all my trips today na short short trips o....400naira 300 naira.....after 8 trips na 4500 b my earning

Lol better manage, just came out of uber office yesterday, they say my account needs attention (High cancellation rate). The first request this morning enter cancel straight, in omole phase 1, getting request from omole phase 2, when I'm not APA... That's how I start building another high cancellation rate

Skiilashi:
Are u sure it is recommended for the Hyundai elentra type of my car?

If you say SP lll, you are going to see it on it

Skiilashi:
Good evening gentle men.
Hope u all had a great day

Please I need an urgent help.
I drive an Hyundai elentra 2008.

My mechanic told me today that my transmission oil needs a change. I never changed it b4,but with what I have read here,I learnt that I can only use the specification 'SP III'

Please where can I get this ATF?
Secondly, I need some one to recommend a good AC specialist to look at my AC.it is not cooling like B4.

I no want riders wahala o. Let me just fix it.

Pls help fast.

You may not get ATF with SP lll alone easily, probably combination of verities. But you can go for Heydex synthetic ATF.

slamstanlee:
Taxify mumu o. Dey have change the default car on the rider app from bolt to lite. It was actually vice versa.
Na to favour the riders all the time them sabi

Same tin I was complaining about last week, I think its best they just forget dis bolt and lite thing. The driver on bolt are the ones negatively feeling separation

Xneg:
Seriously is this even worth it? Uber will definitely be more than this, from lekki!

Failed trip... Since its card, u should have review

deedee44:
This is the reason I stopped chasing taxify bonus, if you can remember when they used to do week long bonus of 20k and 40k. At almost 10pm on the last day I completed the last trip to get 20k. I just went offline and went to a bar to relax cuz I was so stressed out. I ordered a bottle of beer and I smiled to my phone in the process of checking how much I've made so far plus my 20k bonus. To my surprise I only saw green bar, no yellow bar on top (you know what this means if you've chopped bonus before lol)
In my mind maybe they've not updated my earnings. Out of curiosity I clicked on the bonus page and saw "red". My heart skipped, then I slowly read something that looked like a death sentence.. Acceptance rate less than 95 %
How come? I went back to check my trip history and on the very top lied this "driver did not respond " staring at my face. To cut story short no be me drink that beer wey I order
When I'm finally ready to retire from this strenuous biz, I go collect my money las las, cash trips all the way. Before dem block me I don recover my scammed money

Lol I can relate, taxify is on life support right now, yesterday they are stylishly aviodin surge, they can't even give promo like uber. I don't chase their bonus again, except friday/Saturdays own

Epphy:
I get it very well. WiFi connection reduces the rate of the experience. Just try it

Kk boss

Epphy:
I would advise you get a mifi or if you have another phone that you can be using its hotspot, it's cool.
I have a small 4G phone that I use as mifi (using its hotspot). It surely helps as the only times I got 'drivers did not respond were either that I didn't respond intentionally or phone's screen touch issue.

Boss u r not getting it, you won't even get to hear a sound or see display on your phone. I just saw another one now dropping my activity scores without even noticing anything last night

Gentlelife50:
E just start naa, blood still hot. Very soon body go tell am. New drivers are very zealous and can travel anywhere until he understand whatsup

Lol! I deh always see sleep 1 30am, wake 5am... None of my business nah body get the right response, but las las its a good thing to explore

Megadrop:
Mainland is where the work is on weekends and during hols but switches to the island week days

Just done wit today.... Yet to eat, need some rest, but can't blow empty to the mainland

Taxify is really sick, only one trip since morning, got d not responding nonsense while using my phone. I need a trip to mainland, lekki don tire me... Thank God for Uber

Tgiirl:
Bolt drivers are enjoying back to back today of all day like say na weekend. Surge sweet

Lmao .. Lite or bolt

Mjosh1000:
Is anyone noticing taxify fake surge

Been dia for hours, no request, uber keeps coming in, but no to uber till I'm tired of waiting

franksam2009:
activity score doesn't matter, mine is 51%, what you should be worried about is your ratings

Bros 51%.... When u start driving?

chucsmoore:
Don't position where lite are many, your chances of request will be minimal

I get boss, but most time when you find a good shed inside this hot sun, its difficult to let go

Taxify just keep killing bolt drivers, so they place the lite on the left hand side... Been online for 2 hrs now, no trip, how can I port to lite oo

franksam2009:
Seriously I think another planet should should somehow be created for women alone, I'm surprised that half of the women I have driven are cheats and I'm tired of listening to their stupid conversations, it's makes me sick to the stomach.
Hv been wondering if I'm the only person getting such request? Is it normal

And u said you are ready for marriage ba yi?

dru23:
Omo uber is trying their best.. The only thing remains is for uber to dash money and not collect any commission at all for the rest of their business in Nigeria

For my side they are not trying, I prefer the 1.2 surge on , what's the benefit of spending 2 hrs in traffic with 0% and getting 2k, that's fuel money if you ask me... All these promo's are needless if they are doing the right thing

Note: They r doing the best they can do regarding the chain of demand and supply in the business, but someone is honestly not willing to shift his/her ground when it comes to cut

izzou:
Very easy

Corolla
Someone sitting at the back
Phone holder
Phone showing something like map

Lol! Phone wey I don throw inside pocket, I don't use car holder and map most b for strange areas. Someone sitting at the back does not connote anything, cos I have been thinking one day, area boys will start tackling uber guys

izzou:
Please, is it true that VIO now requests for Hackney permit from Uber drivers?

I thought Hackney was for red plate numbers

How do they know u were uber driver?

Blackbishop:
Abeg house Uber no accept road worthiness of another state how much them they do road worthiness for lag abeg urgent

I think 5k
