Thanks , but who will be held responsible if the driver runs away with the car since I don't know him from anywhere.

[color=royalblue]The more riders we have, the more trips they get

The onus is on Uber and Bolt to create more awareness and publicity, so that more riders can enter the game

It's just that there are a lot of factors limiting the potential of ehailing: bad roads, traffic, safety....

If not, Ehailing has not lived up to its potential in Lagos[/color]

peeps4u:
Relax, rhe sky is big enough for all the birds to fly.

Do u also know how many people that have stopped doing ehailing work?

People have always been joining this hustle and it does stop the existing drivers from earning.

Nezzjnr:
You may be right

But can you remember when People were raking in almost 100k weekly

izzou:
[color=royalblue]For me, I don't think they are wrong. They just need to balance both sides.

Like I said, ehailing has not been harnessed sef...

96% of cars on the platform only ply very few local governments in Lagos. That's why it looks like the business is saturated.

Every driver currently wants a VI, Ikoyi, Lekki, Yaba, Ikeja, Lagos Island, Surulere, Ojodu/Berger trip and others. Most parts of the mainland and even the island are still uncovered

This is due to a lot of factors: Bad roads, Traffic, Absence of night life, insecurity and others

Ikorodu is still barren
Badagry is still barren
Epe is still barren
Apapa, Ajegunle, Okoko and a lot of other areas....Now, drivers are starting to boycott Festac, Satellite and it's environs

Uber is still a good business to me. It's just that so many factors are against it currently.

As for saturated, I don't think it has[/color]

eherbal:
tough times ahead for ehailing biz.this 3rd mainland,6 months repairs, is gonna spell doom for the biz. costain is under repairs,Alaka also,mushin road is non existent,ojota,for wia? peeps trapped in traffic will be easy pickings for criminals, especially lone female drivers. businesses will close,jobs will be lost. it's gonna be a long, excruciatingly painful six months.be prepared brethrens, the coming days will be tasking. God help us all.

northbird:
Sundays r usually dry in Abj. Maybe Saturday. But las las, you shd b able to make lyk 5k if you know d city.

Gentlelife50:
I think they used to check cars with Lagos State plate numbers on Lagos State portal not road safety portal because at a point Lagos State was issuing plate numbers then later it will be moved to federal road safety portal, so if you are looking for it in the road safety portal you may not find it.

Godfather10:
Very true, London U.K. has a population of 9m and 50k drivers.
Colombia I hear has about 90k drivers l don’t know the population though.
UBER hasn’t reached its maximum potential yet

gbens2000:
Boss what of other days

Felicity0001:
Oga if you and a woman try have quicky inside my ride weather in London or USA or in 9ja I'll kick your ass out anytime od the day and if uber blocks me for that I'll tell them to fvck off. My ride is not a hotel.

If you doubt me pls let me know when you're visiting 9ja let me come and pick you atbthe airport.

I'm been serious right now.

Modify:

As a matter of fact, do you know it's an offence in the Nigeria constitution to make love inside a car?? And the punishment attracts 2years imprisonment.

So you should even applaud me I didn't even get them arrested for makingoff in my and messing up my car.

What nonsense!

herkeem:
I have been an ardent follower of uber group even though I'm neither a driver nor a car owner. Please I need the assistance of everyone to help me call out this man who scammed me. Please help me call/text this man named Hassan Stephen with phone number 0816 666 8318 to please pay the 11500 for the clipper he bought. He showed the delivery man fake alert which make the man to leave him. Unfortunately the money has not entered and the man has switched off his main phone number; 09041828460.

Vision2045:
If you have the delivery address, why not go there with a soldier.....or set a female trap for him get his location and take a soldier with you.......

I put a call through and he blocked my line after I narrated my reason for calling.

northbird:
For those eyeing the moove cars. Its easy to take a car. Paying for it is the issue.

Hypothetical example.
A 2016 corrolla ,say #6,000,000.

Payment- #25,000
50 weeks( in a year)- #1,250,000

4 years 6months.
Iout

And I'm sure they have to markup the price to make some profits.

4 years and 6 months of your life paying #25,000 weekly.

With dirt cheap fares....



They have your BVN too.,they will look at your cash flow for d past 6 months, so if you want a brand new car your monthly turnover must be really impressive.

Reason the issue well o.

Godfather10:
We pay 5yrs for a brand new car in London looks like a fair deal more so with our fluctuating currency

Crvrider:
I later went to alausa Ikeja "ministry of transportation" and it was verified as fake. But issue has been resolved, I was given a new plate number today. Really stressed out! Been there since morning just got home. Though had to stay back a bit because of traffic.

PL who knows how I can locate LCC admiralty office I want to pick etag

Godfather10:
That was never meant to last, Oyinbo business model have always been small single profit but huge Number, when you add it all together you get humongous profit,
I wonder if anyone can remember the mobile phones.
UBER and bolts cheapness is what attracts so many riders.
I remember a trip I wanted to take to Park View from Falomo under bridge, the Taxis there requested for N1500, Uber took me to park view for N700 and it’s much safer, you can never here of Kidnappings in UBER
