This one make sense. No be bolt wey go won kill you with conditions ontop 2k

competition is really good, no wonder Bolt has been offering N4k bonus daily..

Snrman1:
i think so still zero commission, i did that tutorial and found a little difference if u skip a trip it it reduces ur rating we wait till june sha senior..

My guess was right the other time, I always have the feeling the ratings on rider has little or nothing to do with how rider's rate drivers.

As a car owner with two cars, using one for the hustle and been among the silent readers association on nairaland
Joined a telegram group here to learn how to increase my earnings by a veteran here who many folks look up to and mentors
After some months in the hustle, saw a post from someone in the telegram group looking for a rental. The telegram group being a closed forum with like minds I posted also that I have a car lying idle and up for rental.
In my thinking I could use it to earn extra income through rentals
So the person dm'd me and we agreed for 30k weekly because from his posts he nets huge and puts in the time so I thought he is ideal for the position
We met signed all relevant document and the car was given. After months I discovered this person was the same person that created this telegram group but used an alternate line to strike this rental deal. Inotherwords he has two numbers on the platform. That means I've been partnering with my mentor 😢

Has he kept to his side of the agreement?

I appreciate the advice the pros here give. Thanks a lot.
Please I have a question.

Sometime back I took a trip to the airport which was my first time. I’ve read here how you can’t park anywhere in the airport and how hostile it is. That night a Good Samaritan led me to the car park which I dropped off and paid 700 naira before I could leave.

Now this is my question. I get trips on bolt to some hotel or agency which states airport road. Please will this trip lead me to the airport? Or it’s just a normal trip? As I decline such requests becuase gurus here have told me to avoid airport because I’m not to familiar with it.

Another question please. When you are to drop a rider in computer village, where do you drop them? Because most streets there don’t look like cars enter soo I drop them along the road.

a
I remember telling you that you don't have to go to the park to drop off a rider, drop off at the drop off zone and move, it's free of charge, you just wasted #700 just like that.

BAZ001:


All this Tinubu boys

Have you ever gotten to bus stop and conductor will shout cms #100 and you will rush it , only for agbero to show up and conductor will come back to say #150 or we no go again becos agbero want collect 1k and they will actually tell everyone to go down and drive away ?
Have you seen lastma arrest car cos of seat belt and towing vehicle will tow the car. when u get to the office they ask you for Tax evidence, lasri and plenty docs before you pay for your car ?
I saw agbero slapping one fresh guy on my street, wat did he do? They said he bought Tokunbo car (without plate number) and doesn’t want to pay matching ground , Haba see slap ?

If you want to fiix your car by roadside in Clegg agbero will show up with ticket b4 dey fix ordinary fan belt.

See what agbero did during governorship election cutlass, knife everything to fight to win.
I can go on and on.
There is no limit to what Tinubu and his boys can do to get more money with Federal power wait and see.

Back to your question, do you expect the app companies to treat you like princes in your country when they can see clearly how your leaders/taskmasters treat you like slaves and have bound you to the philistine

Baz no kee me nah...

You still haven't answered my questions, I will help you again pretending like you don't understand the question.

how did Tinubu influence e-hailing drivers not to join the strike?

How did Tinubu influence e-hailing platforms to remove the features you mentioned above?

Finally can you please give us a breakdown of transportation charge by Agberos in Anambra and Lagos state?

In all the things you wrote up there and got 7 likes for, none of them answered a single question out of the 3 I asked you.

I will begin with the last question I asked you since it's the closest answer to what you gave me.

Anambra Agberos charge far higher than Lagos Agbero but the actions of Agbero in both states doesn't in anyway:

1. Stop drivers from joining protests

2. Influence e-hailing apps from removing advanced features from their apps

When you have an answer for me, I will be here. You can save your face by saying you have a personal problem with Tinubu. No qualms.

Let me add a final one.

You said these problems will get worse when Tinubu is sworn in on Monday.

Like, Tinubu will prevent more drivers from joining strike?

Tinubu will influence more e-hailing apps to remove more features?

How sir? 😁 😁

You need not use Airport car park for drop off.

Those trips you got are probably ajao estate and it would definitely take you through Airport toll gate depending on where your PU is. I really don't know much about Airport PU but as some of my ogas said, use car park if you get any request at Airport and be certain your rider pay for the car park.

For Computer Village, you don't have to enter those streets, drop your rider at main road/ Junction that leads to the destination. Just becareful with computer village guys as bad eggs plenty among dem. Confirm your payment b4 they leave

Make Bosses come shed more light to this

Johnchrix:
Felicity Pearl and co una still de hustle this bolt Business.

I was gonna ask after you the other day but again, brother head full.

How you dey nah.

Trust you're doing great.


The last time I took a trip full time was January 1st this year, 8 months coming out of retirement.

The job is not for everyone and not for people like me.

izzou:


This was the one i did from Ibis hotel on Airport road to Festac in February

Very very ridiculous

I paid less for a client some weeks back, try it around 9-11pm.

Riders are the boss in ehailing
Owner's are the boss in other mode of transport business.

Even State government mass transits have all increase their fare to commensurate the effect of fx/inflation but all ehailing app are just using the colonial antics on Africans especially Nigerians yet most of us are still singing their praises.

If you try to open their mind to other more profitable ventures some haters will call you names while others will wish you evil. I don't blame them anyways. It's poverty mentality.

There is nothing one can do to a man who have been povertically brainwashed to make him change his mind.

Same reason is to why we keep recycling old and sick leaders into power despite seeing vibrant youths who can turn around the affairs of the country.

Infact, we need them in our society so the gap and respect btw the rich and the poor with continuously be relevant

humblesteve:

Too poor. This thing about those cab at the airport is true. From Mm2 to Egbeda they charge me 7k but I bet you bolt won’t even charge me 4K

People like you will be fast to call a bolt driver thief when he tries to charge you offline for 1k higher than the estimate on bolt and 3k less than the airport taxies despite knowing bolt fare is ridiculously cheap. Some of you will even try to blackmail the driver.while other will use the psychologist tactics- pls it's the last money on me I used to fly... You get 120k to fly Abuja to Lagos for 1hr but you no get ordinary 5k to get home from MM2 to your house abi?
Wickedness, I never fell for this stupid lies or blackmail by riders in my days on ehailing... Oga if you no dey go try the next mumu.

Josephase:
I love how pope reasons, in everything you do in life always use brain. No be some people that are always toxic to this thread

Look at them poverty thinking mentality

Birds of a feather flocks together

What is good about the thinking of a poor man?

Even the Holy books is against the thinking of a poor and foolish man.

Call me a hoodlum
Call me a rascal

I no concern me, but remember these day when you finally get liberated from your low thinking faculty and then grow some balls to tender an apology.
1d.iots

Itsrm:


No, it won't be 3k. It will be 12k. You know 12 plus 6k makes it 18k which is the same amount that the cab man charges

We are talking about the cab man's net earning, his take home after all expenses oh not gross earnings.

Let's not twist it. Card payment method can charge the rider double yet the driver won't even see shishi because his balance would have been counting -ve so he probably must have hustled backwards...lol

pope191:


And when the cab at the Airport dropped you at Egbeda, he picked another trip 7k back to the airport abi? There's logic and matrix to survive every business, how you guys try to know the secret of what you are not into baffles me.

Zukwanu Ike

Just see as you dey reason, how much will bolt or indriver charge from airport to Egbeda?

Let's assume 2500-3k around 9-11pm
Getting a trip back to Ikeja on bolt would be around 1800-2k depends on the days of the week. A bolt driver can as well wait for hours without getting a trip at that hour mind you.

The airport driver has already factored his return trip in his charges so tell me why he has to wait endlessly for a trip back to the airport to pick another Egbeda trip?

Besides, who told you those airport guys don't have bolt apps on their phone to avoid blowing back empty.

You think those bolt drivers who congregate at the waiting lot with their apps on for a potential offline trip don't know what they're doing?

BAZ001:


Una don start ooh,
Na so TheMod..erator push FAS..ASI1 till he begin drag Feli..city001 calling T..ojahh scammer but later erased it and then pope191 join before you know it bottles don dey fly.

E be like say Mentor don rip partner & mentee

My hand no they oo

MrCarter577:


Those babas that are complaining that Uber has spoilt their businesses. You'd think it's easy for people who can stay for hours or even days without seeing a good offer.

Bolt has started accepting 99 cars, that's like bringing ehailing back to stastocoup, you'll see the way baba iyabo go dey laugh Uber drivers now...lol


Mo sọ fun yin eniyan ojo yen...
ṣugbọn ẹnyin kọ̀ lati gbọ́

That will be their talk very soon.


Currently from the last 6 months the demand for Toyota Corolla has gone down.

Currently the demand for 02-04 Corolla has gone up together with 99-2002 camry.

Someone was even asking for a registered Nissan Micra yesterday in Lagos ooo...
If I've to project into the future with balablu being the president I see yellow cabs bouncing back to the ring becoming a champion.

I made similar prediction when indriver was coming inboard that we should start kissing festive seasons cashout good by, many called me prophet of doom. I said it here that indriver is coming to kill the business... Look at it today

I'm saying again, think twice before investing into the business.

Yesterday someone contacted me for a.toks camry sport 2008 I'd for sale and I asked him what do you need this car for? He said Uber... I told him if you must venture into Uber biz bros let's get a Corolla or Honda Civic toks standard and he said fine.
I'll stop being the nice guy and quietly do my business.

Nothing concern me.

You need a good car for the hustle feel free to contact me but note by and gone are the days I used to help low budget clients...lolzzz
If you no get money abeg hide your face.

Don't think of coming to my DM

ReadaDream:
I drive full time, I don't change pads monthly. The front pads that came with my car lasted from June 2021 to January 2023, Rear pads I changed them in August 2021, it's still serving.

P.s I use toks brake pads.

My front break pads usually last me 15k moles when I was active then... 6-8 months I think

You won't compare a MB to a Japanese car... Them no b mate in any way

AlNur:


Give your car to somebody that lives in Agbado that is your choice please don’t come for me.

Your choice your business but don't talk down on a brother who is currently downtrodden and looking for means of surviving. Have you imagine what that your wrong perception would have cost him by now? A Job!

Next time think before you comment

MrCarter577:


Exactly. You made my point. Even those who drive full time don't change pads monthly but he made it seem like people pay huge sums for car maintenance weekly!

To some extent he's right...

People do but they don't come out to say it openly.

Ask blacky if not for secrecy of business and dishonesty a lot of mechanics... Bro let's leave it at that.

That your car is not giving issues not doesn't mean it won't in the future if you keep using it regularly for the next 6 months ooo.

Don't compare yourself that work only weekends to those that work Mondays through Sundays... Those guys visit mechanic workshop regularly.

Pearl1910:


Agha....
This thread ehhh...if na real life those two people fit gang up just to beat you. Then wen they finish with u, they will continue their own quarrel. How dare u

Donphilex goat since nah... Lolzz... But that AlNur is a federal goat... Just imagine what he did... That's wrong bro how could he?

A Job applicant walks up to you on a Friday for a white collar job and your PA who is in a native attire is asking the applicant why he is on a native attire instead of a coat. Some stupid hirer will call the PA a smart thinking person not knowing he's mentality detail

Glithronix:
Good evening, legends.
Been a while I noticed that AC doesn't chill properly during the day until evening time like 7pm upwards it will start proper chilling.
Today's own come worse pass. So, I want to take the car to an ac tech tomorrow for rectification. I no like anything lacking in the car.
I dey go house like this, grossed my 25k already. Make I know what the AC issue be before the AC man go wan rip me.
Much respect, bosses.

I always happy to read you're progressing in the business or hustle but I honestly hope and wish you're actually making progress!

Hope and wish you good on making plans to own your own car... Remember it's over a year now since you got a rental after a long search till you got a biggy. I remember you had plans to buy your own car after the first 6 months, I know Nigeria happens to us all but bro don't stop believing, don't stop thinking and don't stop planing towards that goal

Readadream was renting @35k weekly, yet was paying rent on the island... I honestly don't know how he managed to do it... He saves to own his car today..

Please note, owing your own car isn't the end of your problems ooh or doesn't automatically transit you to total freedom either rather it even exposes you to a lot of greater challenges to deal with because you'll first have to deal with your own self being your own boss and then your car.

Whatever the challenge maybe don't ever be afraid to step into a new era because greater challenges always come to great men.
