Omoapena:
bolt and their unstable policies, they have removed priority category from the categories and bolt category price is ridiculous.

alaricsaltzman:
Same thing I noticed o. I dey always tell them make dem run am sharply when I don almost reach their destination. One even told me: "but we've not reach na" I tell am say I dey rush abeg.

Gentlelife50:
One thing I have noticed is indriver riders are more willing to give tips, but you see those bolt riders na aka gum majority of them be.

Pearl1910:
Lagos Island, Ikoyi, VI, Lekki Phase 1 all na the same.
U are talking as if you are different from the rest of them drivers on InDrive. All of una na thesame. I can confidently say this because if u don't pick the trash fares, u ain't gonna make any meaningful earnings at the end of the day.
U were just lucky the chinco no put 7k from mainland to island, I sure say u for still rush am. Na una empower Indrive to spoil this business.

Glithronix:
No vex, my oga sir. 🫡
Na true. I'm no different from the rest.
@the bold - naah, I won't even let it ring twice, or stay on my phone screen before I go swipe am right/cancel.
I no dey pick anyhow ride. I'm very selective. That's why I no dey do plenty trips and I dey meet up.
God no go shame us, my oga.


Much respect, boss.

Kaymaxi2222:
you will accept it bro from your past post of your earnings here you will, no be you dey do around 250/km ?

Pearl1910:
I dey vex for Indrive people well well.
U just collect stray bullet no ni

Glithronix:
When it comes to indrive, naira/km is irrelevant.
Make una no dey use that one judge.
What counts is time/money.
That's how indrive works.
Oya, pick one among these two, assuming you're 7mins to the PU and lecture us why you picked it.

Much respect, sir.

Omoapena:
baba, you wan pick indrive request based on the estimated destination time shown on the app?


be like indrive never show you 30mins to destination but on putting destination on Google map, you will see 1hour.

indrive nah for veterans wey don sabi the hustle well, or else, you go dey pick nonsense.

this 2 trip you're using as illustration, I won't even accept any for that price, the 6k isn't good for that 13km distance while the 3500 isn't good for that time.

Glithronix:
Both trips were on Sunday and roads were totally free.
I monitor road conditions regularly and those times were actually accurate.
Na the details on both trips I am concerned about, make oga kaymax see.

Much respect, boss.

daguru001:
Good day, my people. Pls, which car is best for UBER? Secondly, am based in Ibadan, is it lucrative in IB? I have some money so I can get a car. Thanks all

Gentlelife50:
G63 , GX460 or even range rover Vella are all okay, as for ibadan I think it's more lucrative than Lagos and Abuja.

Kaymaxi2222:
I will pick the 6k of course over the 3.5k if I am close to the PU. The thing is if you are talking about time from phase 1 to yaba is 30mins drive if road is free are you saying you won't pick it if customer put 7k?. Remember I use indrive very well too, for 5k when road is free drivers dey rush am while me I will still be waiting for at least make I see 7k

Glithronix:
To be sincere, the point I wanted to establish is simple.
The 6k trip carries 275/km, you chose it over the 3.5k of 714/km because it's a better trip and obviously more profitable.
In essence, having a 270/km trips on your dashboard doesn't mean you're doing wrong trips - you could be making more profit than the 700/km trips.
This has been my only stand on this naira/km talks.
Naira/km is irrelevant on indrive. What brings better profit is the time and the money.
Those big money/km trips are on short-short trips and me I be long trips taker.
Short trips are time wasters and you do more work and move around too much.
I do trips that by the time I do 4-5 trips, I don dey gross like 40k and above, while short trips takers still pursuing 15k-20k because say no 700/km. Smiles.
I'm not antagonizing anyone ooh.
But when I see condemnation on small money/km, na where I come in be that.
Abi no be this same trips I dey see on indrive?
Make everybody dey hustle dey go oooh.

Much respect, boss.

Pearl1910:
U can't complete that second trip in 20mins
Forget what u are seeing on the app. Before u find ur way to Berger from inside magodo phase 1, 10mins would have passed. Are u saying u will now use 10mins from Berger to GRA?
For u to know it's not possible , the map is telling u 23mins from Oregun to that Magodo, so how will u use 20mins from Magodo to GRA?
Keep using what works for u sha, I can't say u should stop now, but time alone is not the best assessment.

Now going by what u say, u can do Ogudu to VI in less than 30mins also GRA to Surulere will take same time. Are u now saying u will do GRA to VI for the same price of Ogudu to Surulere?

Kaymaxi2222:
nope that 6k trip can't be 275/km if you are near the PU

ReadaDream:
I no they like see those 1120 1340 1750 trips. Na straight to decline

Nelochukwu:
Mehn people dey use better motor for this work ooo. My friend told me he saw a bolt driver with better Toyota Corolla 2016 super clean.

My man saying bolt is ripping people off with 1 dollar fares, bro u r correct that's y Iz advisable to be selective of rides. My friend started using bolt well and said he prefers d bolt comfort but that bolt is generally not bad.

He uses indrive to set destination home

Here is his today's work with 25k fuel.

God bless all genuine hustlers.

Eyinola1:
since I hv been using my car na only once I don ever carry passenger on a comfort category 😅 thr is a new category called priority now I guess they also change economy to basic ..its well shaaa

Kaymaxi2222:

Glithronix:
Okay.
How much e go be?

Nelochukwu:
Sorry pls what car do you drive. My guy said he carried comfort alot and in a lot. Sometimes 4 to 5 in a day. His been doing bolt for like one week straight now. His enjoying bolt na y @pearl1910 no gree leave bolt

Eyinola1:
012 Honda accord ,well I use more of indrive app shaa and I don't really like working on the island, once I get trip to island my next trip immediately should be back to mainland.

Kaymaxi2222:
let's assume I am 2km away from the PU, plus the 13km to the destination making it 15km in total that's still 400/km

Glithronix:
And still better and more profitable than the first one that carries 714/km.
All the same sha, God no go shame us.
BTW, something has been causing traffic on Ojodu Berger expressway since yesterday, I noticed, you know wetin dey cause am?


Much respect, boss.

Nico360:
Next time, when you get the order on indrive, disable your location asap before driving to pick up point. , should incase the rider move mad.
