₦airaland Forum

If anyone is tired or disgruntled about the way uber or bolt have been handling their affairs concerning this business they are free to quit and look for something else to do.

We all know it's not easy at the moment but we have to eat and our families and bills have to be settled as well. Nobody can instigate a total shutdown of bolt or uber in nigeria from this thread on nairaland, you'd have to either go to their offices to complain or make the government come to your rescue one way or the other. THERE IS NO UBER OR BOLT REPRESENTATIVE OR STAFF HERE so coming here to attack people indiscriminately is counter productive and a waste of time.

If you feel the business is not paying you please exit. I pray God opens doors wide for you as you do.

Allow those who want to keep struggling to struggle, it is their choice just as you have made yours. Because you quit does not mean everyone else should join you and quit. Some actually have methods which work for them and they are contented with it. Nobody is trying to become dangote via ehailing but na where man see work do na there him go from see food chop.

Enjoy your weekend people

This is were you will be deplorably and woefully disappointed if you have that mind set of achieving such amount of money daily with 7-8 hours on the road driving ... Them say who nor go nor go know.. well now only you one go fill the agony when the actual time comes. People you are yeiding to their advise have been driving for uberbolt way back since this thread was created. You can't compare the economy of Nigeria then to 2024.. majority of them don't drive anymore and some only drive weekends on rush hours not every day..

I will be here, time will tell.. now only the sweet side dem go only let you know

Thank you for the advice sir. I know you have your reasons…
But I believe a regular income will change my situation, I got other hustle going on and driving bolt 5-6days a week should keep my head up.

I will be here to tell you good news, I literally got other stuffs going on and that steady income will go a long way… I’ll be starting before month ends all things being equal.

Haha .wahala

Spent 45k on maintenance today

How many rides to get That back lol

After typing grammar go and soak your Garri jeje

Will be back to check update, Liverpool game in a bit

So gay drivers deh sef, I'm not discriminating cha

I won't advice anyone to sell his car unless you get what u want use the 💰 to do something cool , u fit no get car again o.

Tinubu said so

Lol
About the maintenance level, it's inevitable.
But I'm sure you've generated lot more than the 45k you spent on the car today.

Where the pain is coming from is spending such amnt at once in a single day.

If you can decipher or fathom my post vividly, you can easily notice what I am trying to let you know.. I am not discouraging nor advising you not to drive for uberbolt, but don't fully depend on it, because you will be disappointed when you neglect your other source of income..

That amount of money you are clamoring for can not be guaranteed everyday as NET, if you eventually want to try and achieve that daily BECUs of some unrealistic dashboard profit of some old teletele here, now your car go suffer am badly.. be ready to make some losses most times as a newbie in the game, even some professional currently can't even fix some major problems in their car due to deterioration (it's very difficult to have saving in e-hailling job). That's the bitter side of the job they will never let you know here..

Work smart not hard..

Shimmaa:
Good evening bosses, pls i intend to go into uber just to keep me busy pending when I will sort myself out, I'm not so familiar with Lagos route and what are the likely challenges to face on Lagos road....

In addition to what Doris4ever said, no road side parking's pls, only use approved parkings. When you take riders to the airport, just drop off, don't pick riders anywhere around or within the airport, not even airport road except airport park where you will be charged per hour. Always look up for one way routes especially yaba. Don't outsmart vehicles while traffic is moving gradually, you might be held for illegal change of lane.
Hotspots for pick ups on mainland. Ikeja City Mall and environs, Unilag, Yaba, Shomolu, Ojodu berger, Magodo, shangisha, ketu ikosi, Simbiat Abiola way. Let me add Festac and alimosho sha
Don't park anywhere around Governors office, mind the do not turn signage there too. When you get an order from there, let the security guys know somewhere order you from inside.

Avoid orders going towards Ikorodu, Magboro, Ibafo, Ilupeju, Gbagada express. You might not be lucky to get anoder rider from those locations back to metropolis, hence waste of fuel. Avoid any Otta destination no matter how juicy the offer lol.

If police ask if you are a uber, pls identify yourself as I driver. It saves lives. They understand from that perspective that you are an hustler.
If being held by police men and you were faulty, plead all you can but if not accepted, negotiations shouldnt be more than 5k
Lastma, negotiations 20k
CBD negotiations 10k when taken to their office 15k
VIO less than 10k but pray make you no jam dem. They can stop you for a document you have and ticket you for another irrelevant document you shouldn't have. All to extort.

Learn to use the Google map.
Always use the express way.
Avoid Mobalaji Bank Anthony way in the late evening.

All the best.

I won't advice anyone to sell his car unless you get what u want use the 💰 to do something cool , u fit no get car again o.

Tinubu said so

What exactly am I not getting. Dude has a v6 that is useless to him. Someone advised sell same and buy v4. Isn't that wise enuff
So say he sells car for 5.8m let's say 6m buys civic for 3m. 03 04 civic tokunbo standard. He keeps 3m to invest in whatever and act as a cushion while he hustles with the car
Look unless they r chasing u from village with like 3m extra plus a told standard civic. O boy the sky is d limit.

Pls there is a guy here that drives exclusively on Uber. Oboy u dey enjoy oo. Abeg big up to Uber app. There r no 1 .that app has got u covered as a driver weather u in traffic or not. Infact sef in traffic just relax and watch how them slam rider bills. Mehn to hell with indrive jare. I drive is goodnif u can negotiate sweet deals sha.

Abeg make everybody chill. D advise given is wise. He still keeps a car which will still appreciate over d period as we know cars dey appreciate for Naija .

What have I said that is wrong in that post I made up there? what exactly did you comprehend from that my post that warranted this rant from you this evening?

The fact that you hate my guts here does not give you the permission or right to turn my words on its head
There are people actively encouraging and gaslighting others to quit this business on this thread, they have been doing it for weeks now . . . nay, months, right in front of you yet you have never for once said a word to them about it . . .

It's now that harmless post I made that you saw to castigate

Abeg carry your wahala go front 👏 i take oluwa beg you

Positive attitude will take you far

yogayoga23:
Thanks to everyone for they advice, The IB guy with v6 , I think I will just go ahead. I know I cannot become Elumelu or Dangote driving Uber… But if it can guarantee 20-25k savings daily with 7-8hrs work shift, it’s ok for me and I can have money to keep up and also keep up with what I’ve been doing. It’s crazy this days that ordinary 5k fit make eyes red…

Only way is forward, I guess… And at my age, it’s okay to fail, learn and grow. I also need the outside energy so I will just do my thing. Thanks everyone and I hope to meet and make good friends around here as I journey towards the goal…

Angel dey this thread.cool. oya now.

IFSHR:
When you are about to start.. kindly mention me.. I owe you half tank of fuel .. I wish you all the best in your endeavours.. try and join Cheerfulgiver WhatsApp group.. I am sure that will help you navigate the hustle as well.

I laugh in Zulu

glambo:
Una don start again.
Bike saving 100k weekly

I laugh in Spanish
Continue oooooooo

I just don't understand the kind hate that guy has for me here

I have never for once castigated or attacked anyone here for dabbling into this hustle, never for once. I am always here encouraging people. I mean, isn't it obvious by now? Tell me Pearl, have you ever read anything from conner here against ehailing?

Haaa! Na wao. When I say wizards are gathered here people think I'm capping just imagine what Gentlelife50 is telling me this evening.

Gentlelife50, you said I advise people to quit abi? If you can show me proof of any time I ever did so . . . Search from this moment back till whenever you're tired, just find me one single example of such a post and I promise to do a giveaway for just you at that moment when you drop the evidence.

I will give you 100k promptly. Just for only you. If you post the evidence this night you'd get the alert right now, I have your banking details already. You've dropped it here countless times.

But if you do not or cannot find such a post from me that even remotely insinuates what you've accused me of doing this evening . . . Abeg, please 🙏 stay off my mentions.

I don't ask for anything else, just avoid me. I'm going to wait for your evidence. You can ask for help from anyone here in searching for such a post if you like. I don't mind.

I will wait for you to post it. You have from now till next year to search for such a post from me. No rush.

IT WOULD BE A HUGE SHAME ON YOUR PERSON IF YOU CAN'T GET AT LEAST ONE OF SUCH POST FROM ME HERE

Just imagine the rubbish

Their tears are delicious, they should cry more.

Na for person wey get time.

Gentlelife50:

You won't get the evidence and shut me up abi? You want to behave like those who come here bearing false witness? well, I won't put it past you. I've always known the type of person you are that's why I consciously avoid your posts here.

I said i have spare 100k for you if you can show your working, I know you need it. I see the way you scramble, nag, coerce and beg for far lower sums here everytime there's a hint of a giveaway. Do yourself this favor and also shame me in the process or just keep avoiding me as you have always done.

Why haven't you yourself ventured into the business you keep campaigning for others?

I know you will come with your normal slanderous tongue and insults but I'll simply leave you in suspense and confusion as usual

Are you sure of what you are saying that conner44 has never used any e-hailling app to hustle before . Because if I finally confirm that. I personally will silent him here online on this thread and he will never have no peace as far I am still using this platform.

I am not joking.. I abhor and detest when this toothless preposterous schmuck feebleminded vile protector of e-hailling job (Conner44) who doesn't have single savvy or acquaintance about this particular job advising the gullible ones to do the job without letting them know about the bitter side of the hustle currently because of the ridiculous fares on the apps with passengers bonus been deducted from the fares after a successful ride and commissions pending to be settle latter, failure to pay on time there are consequences involved.. if they we be comfortable to chest this issues when the time comes..

They think it's easy sitting behind steering every day driving strangers to their destinations. Even pearl and xghost doesn't drive everyday from the dashboard they recently posted (I doubt the authenticity of that photo, no profile name attached to it). It's obvious this guys have other source of deriving income from.. but pearl isn't smart and intelligent enough

you will forever remain pained about the way I keep hammering 🔨 you with facts of your wickedness against your fellow man here

I'm already done with you 😆 You even have the temerity to write a post with the word slander in it against someone else here when in reality you're the one who is chief of such a vice

You can keep hating and talking your usual shit against me. It won't take a hair off my head but you will always feel the pain in your eyeballs whenever you read from me here

That fact alone is satisfactory enough for me

Scroll up to the top of this page. That post I dropped there was done specifically for you

Read it and digest the information very well . . . Then you can continue dancing naked in the marketplace if your legs still have the same madness that your tongue possesses

Na the thing I no understand about the man Conner44. So much money to be made driving and he dey hustle to sell battery charger on commission.

If you allow dashboard he shared fool you, na you know. If the owner of the dashboard was making 150k everyday, he would have shown you his weekly dashboard of 1,050,000 million and not one in a bluemoon occasional and rare 150k.

And na the cost of Corolla engine be this. The part connner44 will not show you.

Oh, so you're looking for a fight?

Haha 😄 you can keep fighting your shadow. I enjoy watching you do it 😉

The oyibo man will buy his car, drive up to/more than 30,000 miles in it each year for many years consecutively then decide to sell it off after which it gets exported and lands in nigeria 🇳🇬

Then someone here buys it and within 2 years and under 50,000 miles the new owner is looking for a new engine

And someone here decides to blame it all on ehailing instead of the slack maintenance attitude of the usual nigerian vehicle owner 🙄

Okay oh 👏
