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

JESUSforgives:


Uber charges 15% 25% on weekdays and 5% 25% on weekends, bro.

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.

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

Rollitout:
7k produced this between yesterday and today

deedee44:

Uber will adjust your fare but won't adjust their initial commission. If you check the trip details I'm sure they still deducted 7k commission

brogxy:

From Anthony back to island? That's hard work mehn!

Gentlelife50:

E no far naa, once I enter third mainland na saribo. Then I enter ikoyi the first position, I do that instead of wasting my time. It's better I waste fuel than time

GAZZUZZ:


I uninstalled my uber driver app because of this. I told them when they pay my N167.4 Then I will drive again in my free time. For now they are rogues.

brogxy:

Maybe I will be trying that now to see if it's worth it.

Gentlelife50:

It's true Bros, they took my 6k plus earnings in place of their commission because I collected cash plus other ones I didn't know until I fought them. Up till now no refunds whatsoever

Me I'm waiting for that call they make every 30days to ask why you stopped driving, then I will tell the pesin to refund my N167.4 Naira

deedee44:

No it doesnt work that way. Once u get a request then its yours and no one else's until either u or the rider cancels. Any other thing asides that is just a glitch

taxiappguy:

I'm not guessing. I'm saying my experience on the platform. Not once, not twice.

Talking about Ikoyi... here's my experience yesterday afternoon
Guys let's be careful where we park while waiting for request, I parked somewhere at cameron street off mobolaji Johnson ikoyi at my normal parking spot o to receive call n hiss myself! B4 I even urinate dis towing guys just speed towards me, I quickly entered my car n thank God for James Bond n Jason statham movies, I speedily reverse. They followed me n one of dem said I should wait, they just want to tell me in case of next time.i put gear for drive n race as if I want to clear the guy, he run comot... After I drove off I gave them middle finger.hungry looking men want to chop my money for that scorching sun yesterday...Lol

Uber only charges 15% on weekdays and 5% on weekends in some particular areas within the boost map.

If you get a request from Festac town or Ayobo e.t.c, OYO. It's 25% commission.

P.S New drivers are not eligible for boost until they complete a particular number of trips.

GAZZUZZ:


I don't want to agree with you, because you cannot be rider and driver at same time. But from experimenting with 2driver apps and 1 rider app, request move to the closest driver only when driver cancels.

ifyeez:
Nice one bro, if it was me because of how angry I am now, I will make sure I jam one when escaping, no careless billings. We ve to be very very careful this days.
I don't know why Nigeria has to be this difficult in all angle, what's there in telling people not to park there, instead they will be waiting for who will fall prey so they can smile.

Tyche:


Dru23! is that you?

Na joke i dey oooooooo

ifyeez:

taxiappguy:

Tbh i dont want to disagree with you but you are not correct.
Happend to ME as a DRIVER severally.

Here is some proof

https://uberpeople.net/threads/we-have-matched-you-with-a-closer-rider-wth.131653/

When that happens it is confusing as hell, because you have already called your rider and you are on your way to them and then suddenly the trip changes (you may not even notice when that happens) and then suddenly somebody else is calling you and describing something else. It's also quite annoying.

Moda1:
It has happened to me just the way u described it .I didn't cancel as a rider but yet I was matched with 3drivers on 1 trip .3 of them called one after the other. The drivers kept changing until the final person arrived. Me as a rider was confused and I wasted more than 30mins for pick up .I guess network interference sha
