No oo I never try am before I just parked in a few poles from ajah pedestrian bridge to confirm the location of who I wanted to go pick so I can know if I would take gallon and go across buy fuel coz my tank was almost empty I didn’t know if the fuel will carry me to the next uturn next thing I saw was police van covering my side of the road I wanted to reverse and said no let me not act something stupid

Barbiturate:
After waiting for 20 mins, you still didn't pick her. She won't feel anything. She'd rather order another. You are the one that wasted your time and still didn't get the deal. I'm not supporting her, don't misconstrue me. The normal waiting time is 5 mins, of which you can choose to cancel after that or call let her understand that she has just 5 mins waiting grace, anytime after that, she would add to the fare. It is the fault of the App. Bolt charges rider after waiting for 5 mins.

As long as you render a service, you should be patient and tolerant. If you see what bar owners go through from customers, you will understand how hard it is to render service in this part of the world. Nigerians are difficult and frustrated people and they sometimes unleash their frustration on service renders. You need to follow them with patience and tolerance if you want good score/rating and offcourse, the money, which is the reason you're in the biz.

If she entered the car and you politely explained to her that it's only 5 mins waiting grace and she needs to add a little to the fare for your 15 mins wait, she might oblige, but if she refuses, you move on and go drop her. If she alights, give her 1 star and explain why on the App.

Simple

ReadaDream:
That's BS. Those guys are unreasonable, you should have just taken the easy way out. Reverse and zoom off!

What offense did they say you commit?

The fuel in his tank can't take him far if he decides to take this option.

northbird:
What's the issue you have with ehailing?

northbird:
@ honoruable pomk, you want the real stuff? I'm happy you said you have another hustle, the moment you have another gig, ehailing will be so sweet for you..seriously believe me.

Let's start by telling me your income objectives daily..
1 how much are looking forward to everyday ,
Net ,I mean

2. How long have you been driving?

HonourablePomk:
I’m ok with net 7k a day for a start. That’s gross 10k with bolt and 8k on indrive

I started driving last year January

northbird:
Don't limit yourself, you can net 10k daily on Bolt daily.
Ask for strategy, make senior men give you, that's 50k weekly for you. No stress at all. 5 days of work as a beginner.

If you started driving last year January, you should be perfect now. Driving doesn't take time. Just make sure when you are driving, you devote full concentration.. No distractions, don't be absent minded.

@ honoruable
First things first,You have no business with Indrive at this stage of yours.
You don't have the experience, there are sharks in the waters you chose to swim.. For now,pitch your tent with Bolt.

Focus on the objective which is 10k net. Infact, on a norms,10k net is easy on Bolt. By 1pm or thereabout, you should have this in the bag. Go back home, relax and focus on your other business. Easy ...

Na the problem I have with Lagos pilots be this. There’s no recognized association or even WhatsApp group. Everyone dey form OYO. If not for this thread on Nairaland I don’t think there’s another known converging point for Lagos drivers.

If na Abuja you dey. Men for don turn up!

HonourablePomk:
I turn on the indrive most times because of the inability to choose where you want to go to on bolt and the commission

Viking07:
There is a union already but bolt and Uber are kicking against it for obvious reasons.
