My apologies o, I'm not trying to take business from you guys, I actually so the post in the morning and refuse to respond hoping a driver her will take the job.

Thinking of mobil super 2000

Lol, virtually every business had massive sales November/December, everyone knows it's the period when goods and services are at higher demands. FYI, the surge on bolt came towards the xmas week, and peaked on new years eve when people were reportedly seeing 3X surges.

I put it to you that the high commission is what's actually pissing out most drivers, 600 is the minimum price for any trip, but now bolt has increased its commission to 25.4% albeit not officially, we're told the 5% increase is on the riders which is actually a lie. 600 trip still stays at 600, which is supposed to be like 635 or thereabouts, which isn't so, and recently it seems the fare has been reduced also.

Many drivers are now flocking to indriver as it pays them cos of reduced commission.

This is not true.

I think Bolt takes that off the customers, not drivers or so.

My point is: some people here condemn the business vehemently but same people goes behind hitting the road as early as possible.
If they’re not exposed, they wouldn’t tell you they’ve got some side hustles.

The fact that you said some have ported to indriver shows people would always find their way around situations as indriver is also an ehailing app.

The business isn’t as bad as some persons paint it here. Someone here shared their strategy of 8 - 5pm or thereabouts and still making something reasonable.

Nairaland isn’t real life sometimes. No job is that easy.

Let’s keep pushing the hopes alive.

Cheers!

It's definitely true bro, base fare of any trip, irregardless of distance is 600, bit add the said 5% commission its suppose to give you a total of atleast 635, but its a lie, the minimum trip still remains 600. The driver bears the 5% cost eventually.

Viking07:
This oil is very expensive. Got mine for 15,000.

I think you should piss on your boss's head and come drive on bolt.
Abi comrades, wetin una think

15k is still OK as far as it can preserve my engine for the job ahead. How long before u change it and how frequent do u drive ur car?

YeyeGbami:
If i enter airport rd from oshodi, before i reach Nahco i won’t finish corolla speedometer?

Una just dey tassi me since December wey cheerful fall my hands abi

Pearl1910:
Quite frankly d only skill u need to succeed is if u can drive very well then if u like driving. As u work u will develop other skills that will make d job easier in terms of earnings and comfort.
So provided the person isn't a rookie in driving generally he can take up HP at anytime if given d opportunity.
If u r referring to a rookie in driving, I don't even recommend a learner driver to do Uber work whether rental or HP cos d rigours and mental work involved will take its toll on the person making him have many unpleasant experiences.

Pearl1910:
It's a matter of choice.
But u don't expect the owner of a used car to dash u d car simply cos it's used. Right?!

ThatNiccur:
I dey tell you.
I come dey think whether car speedometers and speed vary... abi 2 cars fit dey go at parallel pace, make one dey read 140km/h and the other 60kmh? Based on say one na Benz and the other na corolla?

providencia:
Dru23, Thank you for the successful delivery

Viking07:
I drive everyday. I was advised to change it after every 6 weeks. The problem is spending such money on servicing is not funny.

abiolag:
That's every 1 and a half month
I tot normal oil change should be every 3 months or 3000km which ever comes first
