I thought u are a driver?
Sometimes it's arguments like this that reveals people.
Yes, u might not do 40k everyday some days u will do 50k someday 60k and very few days 30k maybe because u didnt start early or u closed earlier. Now, If u do 30k today and 50k tomorrow are u not still doing 40k avg?
Truthfully, any one not doing 40k profit in this season isnt doing well. No mincing words.

I took a trip from Gra on bolt 1.7 surge to follow ogba -iju ishaga -ajuwon -Alagbole to KOSOKO street Berger 😀😀 one of the passenger the complain say na long route another one tell am say e better than to go sit in traffic for hours na 😂

Omoapena:
I did a trip from Anthony to ojodu berger bus stop for 16900, i just used that trip to go home straight, thank God for being so conversant with Lagos route, I didn't experience much traffic..

ksmart027:
Okay. But the point I'm trying to make is not fair comparing a midrange Tecno phone to iphone. Much respect boss

Glithronix:
This looks like whining. Is it?


Much respect, boss.

Latonal1:
Stop categorizing android as a phone name.... Android is just a software with different versions you get. Just mention the name of the device you are using will you compare itel with tecno?? Or oppo with Samsung... Google Pixel is the number one dey own android likewise you cant say mapping on iPhone 11 compare it with iPhone 16 iOS software inside both are not the same. Basically android is better than iOS just that Nigeria is dumb country they follow trend the same way Toyota be where as Nissan, Mazda cars are better

ksmart027:
Buy better android na. I'm using Google Pixel, Google map is working very well.

ksmart027:
What type of android are you using?

Pearl1910:
As if that's not bad enough, they have resumed blocking drivers for not accepting trips.

Pearl1910:
Bolt blocked me for three days for Low Activity. I am still observing Indrive, Bolt might be second choice from now on. Except I get trips on Comfort Category or Bolt is surging, I think Indrive is better, from my two days of using Indrive without a choice.

Pearl1910:
No worry yourself brother... People wey still dey chop their mama soup will not understand. When[b] bills start slapping a man, nobe person go tell am to either work or go home[/b]. Even the overseas we are hustling to go to, they think they will just be walking around and be picking money on d streets.

Pearl1910:
I break down my day to keep track of my progress. 40k gross in d morning 10k fuel, same thing for afternoon and night. if u are lucky to surpass it, all well and good, if u are running behind don't let it be anything less than 30k morning, 30k afternoon and 30k night. If u start early before 7am, by 12pm, u should be doing around 50k, then u eat and rest and continue around 2pm. Between 2pm amd 6pm u should do another 30k. Then u play in d evening, select trips, avoid traffic and stay in ur safe zones till u complete your target and close.

Biodun1929:
The 100k you're talking about is it gross or net income?

Nelochukwu:
His car can't give him that. Last he said was that 20k grosses 40k or so. Ideally 20k sud gross you 60-65k on 2.5L engine while 30k does 90k-95k. Pearl's analysis is 💯 if your car is 💯 ( no check engine light is on)

Biodun1929:
I'm going to aim for a 40k net income tomorrow. Sundays are great for this business and that's why I want to try this experiment on a Sunday. My car is a 2.4.litre engine naija used Evil Spirit (still.in okay condition.). I plan on working from 7qm to 7pm (12 hours). I aim to make 40k (after furl money has been removed).

Wish me luck.

Ino fit laugh abeg 😂 the corolla wey come pick me yesterday no dey enter gear on time, he no on ac till will reach destination sef and na bolt category ooo lol 😆

lexylexy:
No thanks to the dashboard warriors. I won't be surprised if they start imposing some sort of Levy on ehailing drivers, since you people say you earn more than doctors and lawyers.

Everything has advantage and disadvantage. When you post huge earnings in a public forum like this, also think about the disadvantages. Also take into cognizance that it's not every driver that makes such.

Some drivers are still complaining about the low fares and seeking an increase. But how can you even justify that when some of y'all keep posting millions earnings monthly.

Glithronix:
It was actually ikoyi.
Aside that self, it's not supposed to be so, whether plenty drivers dey around or not.
The price was too poor and no sensible driver go pick such ride.
BTW, she wired me more than I expected.
I kept mum and was waiting to see how much she go send and she surprised me.
Na chinko, not our people.

Much respect, boss.

Nelochukwu:
You can send phone contact and account no. Uber will only generate a default message that warms you of the risk of doing such. You said u have to move after accepting order Nope u don't. And infact u sud establish contact with rider before moving an inch. You can contact rider after trip if the rider had a functional phone no registered on d app.

Na u dey look Uber app like oyinbo. Do Uber app as u do indrive or bolt only on AC for d rider na wetin I know fit cause fight be dat.

Pearl1910:
Why is the person's Indrive online while doing a two day trip and still with d Bolt client?
Very greedy somebody!

Glithronix:
Smiles.
The "where are you" is template on the customer's app.
So, instead of the BOLT CUSTOMER to type and greet, they just click on the temple.
Na so e be on indrive, too.
No vex, sir.
Btw, the BOLT CUSTOMER is addressed as the RIDER, you as the driver.

Much respect, boss.

raslim20:
I got this message on my app and can't go online, please who have been in the same situation before. Now my question is if I update my documents will it requires I go for inspection again?

Eyinola1:
Thr is something that is confusing me about this indrive ridiculous prices, is I that the app works differently 🙄 because on my passengers app there is a limit I can reduce fare to ,but seen all this shameful fare baffles me, how can someone be offering 1,100 from ikeja to Morgan estate ojodu

Starboytwo:
They just held my friends car because the color is blue and the paper said custom.

They've held us hostage for more than an hour because of the issue.

What can we do about it.

Glithronix:
@SHOOPSYN

We never see anything. All of us go hear am.


Much respect, boss.

Pearl1910:
If u want to do well using Indrive, then at every given time, analyse your position and know how much is good from where you are to at least 3 locations of your choice. So that when the trips to those places pops up, u can speedily accept or reject based on ur predetermined minimum acceptable fare.
E.g if I am in GRA, I only want to go to
1. within Ikeja, 2k
2. Ogudu, gbagada, Alapere, Magodo, 5k
3. Yaba/Surulere, 6k
4. VI/Ikoyi, Lekki phase 1 8k

I would have checked traffic situation and fixed in my head.

If u are the type that likes going to Ijesha, Ago, Festac, Egbeda, Igando, Abulegba , Meiran, AIT, Abijo. Do the same thing and u will see ur apprehension will reduce.

Don't be greedy, immediately u see a fare that satisfies ur minimum price u pick it immediately. No time to be checking time of trip, distance, amount/km and all that.
Turnover is better in d long run. If u keep waiting for the juicy trips they will all pass u by then at the end of the day u will start taking nonsense trips just to meet up.
Best way to operate Indrive is good short trips or medium trips. Long distance trips rarely make sense. Someone will be putting 12k from Ikeja to Sangotedo. 15k to Abijo. Meanwhile VI is 8k. Is it not better to do VI and back than to be going to Sangotedo?
It's even better to do Ikeja to Yaba, then Yaba to VI than to be waiting for VI straight for 8k.
