@Bazoo @Felicity


My Ordeal with indriver was not good at all.
I picked up this dude at 1004. The destination showed Ojodu Berger and the trip fare was N3010. At the PU point, the lad said he'll be making a transfer as his mode of payment, neither do I sense anything contrary to his request.

Approaching Ojodu Berger, the map destination showed he is heading towards Agbole akute, then I asked where exactly his he going to? He replied akute-ajuwon. It was a rainy day. I said to him, I won't be able to go further pass the agbole bridge, I'll have to drop you at the foot of the bridge. Passenger said no problem.
On getting to the agreed destination, he disembarked from the vehicle but his items were still inside, went to negotiate with the bike riders. I didn't have any premonition that he'll be doing anything stupid. He came back hurriedly, requested for my account details in which I spelt out correctly. He confirmed the name of the account, he said done and quickly hopped on bike that was stationed in front of him, they zoomed off.

Waited earnestly for the money to drop but to no avail. I was marvelled. Presumably, He should be in his 20s ó. I'm still in shock ó.
I tried calling him,can't reach him he has blacklisted my number. Tried with other line, he picked up...heard my voice and blacklisted the line also.

In fact...I totally subscribe to @felicity submission about indriver riders as : low lifers and individuals living in privation.

Try to complain to support but there response is not encouraging. Seems their is no penalty for such action(s)




Sorry about your ordeal bro i understand how frustrating these things could be haven done a job yet didn't get paid.

Just save his contact on all of your phones I'm very very sure that one day you'll meet him again then get your money even with interest.

For sake of next time, ask rider to carry out the transfer 30min before getting to DOP(drop off point) since you both already know the amount. That's how I do each time I'm on indriver ride, if I'm not informed in ask 5min into the ride. Remind them again after 5min because some will want to act smart like they didn't hear you and if they're not doing it pull over in a safe place and make it clear politely you want them to carryout the transfer now.

Do these and have peace.

image for reference purposes, didn’t want to display my location reasons for the unnamed road

what is this function on Bolt for?

Nor be every rider, driver dey wait for, but na every driver, rider dey wait for.

so i don’t see any reason why rider & driver can’t make way to pickup point, and arrive almost same time


Bolt calculate an estimated time driver will arrive, and you think i can’t get to pickup point before driver?

i can set my house as a pickup point, but i don’t rather i use business or church landmark in my junction as pickup point, that is me even helping the driver not to drive into street

u think say na me like trekking pass wen dey decide to trek go junction go wait for driver

No matter wat u do, Nigerians must always talk

That function is for if you want to request for someone, the app is designed in such a way that you don't need to stress yourself pointing to where you are.
You said you can't set your house as a pickup point, may I ask why? Because as a driver I prefer to pick you from your house. I'm always at alert when someone requests and stays by the roadside, it's a red flag cuz that's what all those riders doing fake transfer do so you won't be able to trace them.
So I still think you're using the app wrongly sir cheesy grin

How does indriver know you've called the rider?
You will have to make use of the call button on the app. That's how they know

you didnt have to jump into such conclusions. i stated in my post that d car was recently acquired as tokunbo less than 3 months ago, i actually use it for uber in my free time. i still used it and made about 5k that i needed yesterday even though i was in d office. i just want to get d car off my expense list so i can face other obligations squarely for now. its not like the car is disfunctional or a liability to anyone


My apologies sir

U call or rider calls, u cancel or rider cancels, They will deduct their commission first as soon as u pick price and time and rider accepts ur proposal.
Whether they will refund the money deducted now depends on circumstances surrounding the cancellation/termination of the trip.
When rider calls immediately and cancels immediately after the call they don't deduct commissions. But if driver calls commission will be deducted immediately. Speaking from my own experience

Sometimes you want something, but when you get it on a platter, you become suspicious. Especially when it is not the standard.

Just like man wey konji wan kill. Just-a-friend-bae calls him out of the blues and says she is coming over for knacks. You will start thinking the knack is seasoned with gonorrhea.

This is another lapses of the bonus. It is better to cancel the subsequent bonus than revoking the whole bonus. After taking the car to Lambe and Orchid road just to earn the bonus, and by evening, you decided not to go to Itamaga, and fiam, bonus is revoked. It is better to ignore the bonuses and concentrate on very good trips.
@Baz001, grin. please can you tag your car with your name for just a day, may be I will see you somewhere.

Baba no need to scratch my car again , your agents don help you. 2 people hit my car one -once and second guy hit it twice. I didn’t bother to go out cos it was late in the night. Rider was asking me why I didn’t go down to check , I told him it’s too late and what will happen if I go seeing we ve been in traffic for more than 20mins.
I just pity my low mileage Camry but void never to go to abule egba again in the night.

Different strategies, similar results.

Today have only done 10. Number 10 was from my neighbor in the same block of flats. I had gone home to rest and eat, and no sooner had I gone online that a 1.4x came in. Slid arriving now and dashed outside, called her, turned the car and waited for her. She entered car, we exchanged pleasantries, dropped her off. Transaction ended. No time for familiarity. I don't know her, neither does she. Business is business.

I don't take requests that come from my house, I leave it to ring out grin, I have a decent relationship with my neighbours and collecting money for the service rendered might be a problem.

The other day one asked that I take him to the airport, told him I won't be working on the day and he can just book a ride cheesy.

It just pilled the paint and it’s only the bumper. Three runs girls at the back and one guy in front who begged them to pls be quiet he wants to talk to his wife for 5mins.
Trust me the girls forget and giggled while the guy was talking to his wife. He had to mute and begged them again “ pls now”
I was busy laughing until dey hit my car, smile disappear sharp sharp.

I will rather go home or go see a movie than transfer aggression on rider.

I’ve told a rider before that I just had issue with the last rider and she should pardon me incase I’m not coordinated. She made sure she left me better
