Bro, it maybe the car you are using is drinking your fuel. I have been driving since morning on 1k fuel, I still get half tank.

From experience my car gives 5k on 1k fuel.


You can say that for only long trips mr man

Pls does you guys have watps chat if I can join for further discussion .

I joined Uber last month due to loss of my job and I had done over 100 trip . But my experience is that the job is not profitable except you have special customer off Uber or taxify .

The major one that pain me most is I carried a rider from park view Estate Ikoyi to Abule Egba, we spent 2hours 45minutes even the rider was tired of traffic . At the end of the trip Uber charge #4560 and deducted 1000plus which is 25percent . I used #2000 fuel . I can do any work again after the trip . Where is gain in d business . Wear and tear of the vehicle is also there .

Guy is any place I can do drop and chatter off Uber .

Thank you
Guy, get ur fact right before posting. Uber charges 15% (25%-10%)..except if the trip is on surge. Besides, your problem is not uber but your car fuel consumption rate

You probably did not go tru the thread very well, anyway let me answer ur question.
1. Pray hard before you leave ur house and starting of trips

1.1 Start early: 4:30am get up and set destination.

2. Positioning: Example you can't stay inside mushin and expect island trip, you will get Festac and Ago. Ask Gentle will explain beta

3. Trip Chasing: You must ve heard us talking about about surge, yes chase it, one thing with surge is that even if it's gone when you got there, just hang around you must get trip, because some smart ass riders, won't request till the surge is over. One rider told me he has been requesting for the past two hours and canceling because he doesn't want surge trip, stingy guy doesn't want drivers to smile. On that note chase wisely some are not worth it.

4: Pepe and Salt: ask the taxiappguy about it grin grin grin joking please don't come for me

5. Make friends: always try to keep in contact with some nice riders, I have this lady I take to her office every morning at V.i

6. Stanley this space is for you

7. Romeo

8. Chuck

9.Gentle

9.1 Tgirl

10. Always keep contact with ur follow drivers, they will teach you there own tweaks they use, we learn everyday, that's why some of us are here everyday.

That said, some days are so bad you will probably prefer not coming out that day than come out and not get trips, or get useless trip grin grin grin grin grin

Would ve added Gazzuzz buh he doesn't river anymore grin grin grin, I remember when he told us he made, 7k from 7pm to 11pm, that made me seat up grin

Number 4 got me
With stew sef grin

Yea, thought I was the only one experiencing it. Last month my self and one other driver got the same request from same lady and we both drove to the place after speaking with the lady. In fact when I called her after accepting her request she said that a driver called earlier and his on the way. I made her to understand that the guy must have cancelled that was why it came to me. I got to her house first and after like 4mins the other driver arrived and we were both amazed. When she came down stairs she was confused on who to go with and it was my name that appeared on her app and na long trip sha. The other driver said he didnt cancel and was surprised to meet me there. We were both itching to go the mainland as nothing was happening in Lekki that fateful Saturday. As we were talking a request entered the guys phone, he called and it was a very short trip, na so my guy leave. Another one is atimes when you accept an incoming request it will disappear on your to reappear after some seconds. Uber wan be like Taxify grin

Uber sometimes reassign trips based on proximity. So if you have received a request and a driver nearer to the rider becomes available. Uber can reassign that trip to him.
It also happens when 2 riders request 2 drivers. Rider A is closer to Driver B and rider B is closer to Driver A.
Uber can reassign both trips so both drivers don't have to drive long to pick both riders.

So today, two of my riders were complaining about drivers that use "salt and pepper" the person, a woman called "locito".she said once she's you are being touchy with your phone, she starts to suspect you but won't tell you, if she sees a crazy fare, she reports, Uber refunds.

The first person a man, said when he saw he's fare he knew something was wrong but paid but the second time nah fight e wan fight the driver base on somolu brought up. I told him not to fight anyone but report such next time that he will get a refund.

When I ended was so happy that the fare was normal and he learnt something new. Most riders are now aware of it.

Be warned

Not all drivers do salt n pepper stuff, yet price sky rocket. Took someone from yaba to LBS. The fare was 7k plus. To cut long story short, she paid 4k. I reported to uber then they adjusted the fare to 4k. I've seen such more than 5 times. Its the phone or GPS problem
