So Uber has increased their price. This is the beauty of competition. I can tell you authoritatively that Uber Nigeria was coming under intense pressure from their corporate head office. They reduced price in the hopes of getting more customers and they did increase their customer base for a while, but over the last 2 months Taxify has been crushing them. Due to long wait times before a driver gets to you, many riders where switching in droves to taxify. To make matters worse, Taxify was matching them promo for promo. They had no choice but to increase their fares.same with me... Hitting the road by Wednesday latest

It will be interesting to see how Taxify will respond. My guess is that they will hold on a bit on matching Uber they will probably increase a bit. Taxify still needs to differentiate themselves from Uber, and they will hope that lower prices will retain their customers. The question is will drivers remain.?

As for me, i hit the roads next week. I have not driven in 5 months, waiting patiently for a time like this. I will use this week to round up all my businesses and hit the roads next week. Let see if we can hit pre-price reduction fare earnings of 400k per month.

YES BRO, U NEED A SCREENSHOT?

can't wait for you to hit the road, you use to encourage me then

In order to make 400k a month(after Uber fees and fuel but before car repairs and maintenance), i have to put in about 96 hours per week(15 hours Monday to Thursday, 18 hours Fridays and Saturdays. I don't work on Sundays). In my opinion, those are already hefty hours. When Uber slashed their prices, and later surge dropped drastically i realised that in order to make 400k a month, i had to increase my weekly hours to 130 hours. Even if my wife accepts, my body can't.

Business is all about time. Time is equal to money. I had to find some other business that will gurantee similar income with similar amount or even less time/input.

No. it is never ok. 7k fuel should make you 30k minimum.

even with your 2.4 L should make you 21k.

Something is wrong with the fuel consumption of your car. I did 17k with 5k fuel on uber last week Sunday. I do between 13k-14k with 4k fuel on Taxify.
