Doris4ever:Sorry I couldn't go through the agreement you uploaded, but if the agreement doesn't state that you must notify him before you do any major work like the engine work you did, then you have more ground to go with Pearl advise. |

Omoapena:Omoapena, you haven't met some frustrated and desperate drivers. They just want to keep driving, they just urgently need that money irrespective of the effects on their earnings and car. Mind you, there are influx of newbies lately, all these ads up, Bolt and indrive will take advantage of these. Talking about Bolt commission reduction, is simply a gimicks with touch of hushpuppi style. Your fare net will show 10k(ordinarily bolt been operating fix fares), but by experience, using short cut or luck, trip ends earlier, it will end in net of 8.5k bolt takes 1.5k to your outstanding or wallet and you will think is commission reduction. . Bolt is just necessary evil app. You have to play along to survive. Imagine the ridiculous fares lately. Also note: there are lots of 9-5 people taking all these ridiculous trip just to get to their office. |
Drivers: Reduce commission Fares should be reasonable Profile riders for security reasons Bolt: Bonus 12 trips for 6,500 Island Area 1 Rest of Lagos + Border areas Ikeja and Centra(RM) Egbeda(RM) Outer ring(RM) ... The egbeda part is even worse because I have cancelled several fair trip at the sight of "Egbeda"... I don't even look at Border areas twice before cancelling. Pearl, please tell your people in the next board meeting to revert to old route designation. |
Ajibaiye:Boss, please go through the old pages of this tread and read. Since everything is intact and you still have some time before going online. Or rather, just click on either Pearl or Omoapena's monicker and go through their old comments, you will be fine. More importantly, when you get delivery ride, don't go inside any shop or mall or warehouse to receive anything for rider, stay in your car while they bring it to you, don't accept any code for any rider to help them receive stuff for delivery. Ensure you ALWAYS get your fuel from confirmed filling stations (MRS@Ahmodu bello way, Mobil @Ogba/Agidingbi, NNPC@Ojodu, adjacent FRSC if you like them, Total@Gbagada,). Don't buy fuel at all these Ogo Oluwa or Edegbe filling station at this period ooo. Fares are ridiculous, buying fuel wrongly will add salt to injury. Don't mind to drive 7/10km to get your daily good fuel. But please, find time to read this thread. Much respect boss ![]() |
Glithronix:Even if anyone is having kidney transplant on the island today, is better to reschedule ![]() |
Pearl1910:And Lagos borrowings is so huge. |
Pearl1910:Really!! Hearing this for the first time. My license plug denied it. I will have to do that. Thank you boss. |
Obedibombedi:Eccentric set of human beings. I really don't like having conversations with them. Just check papers and I leave. The more you explain yourself, the more complicating it sound to them. You just have to roll with their state of mind at that point in time or be stressed. |
I was stopped by police, checked papers. I am using my old plate number on my new car. Which is EXISTING. I have the existing number place registration paper, old proof ownership showing old car. But renewed proof of ownership showing my current car. Now, police said I must have court papers showing I use my old plate on my new car. I was shocked to my anus. .After serious arguments about that, took me to their station, which I won't allow ordinarily( I prefer doing normal than drive inside station) but I was interested to get to see their ogas, hoping they will correct him, their own is even worse, we met 3 different boss, all saying same thing.,Eventually, I concluded, I am dealing with Nigeria police. My mistake is, trying to explaining to them and forgot I am dealing with Nigerian police.This is how it has been for years, just get existing number plate paper. They spoke with the person in charge of my paper renewal, that one makes it worse because she was so annoyed hearing such. You can't drag with them, so is either I wait till Tuesday to go customary court and do the the paper(if there is anything like that) or I do normal. I chose the later... Let the rotting continues. |
Glithronix:I saw a Tiktok video of a guy that was fined at 3:50am on that MBA road, same thing he said, will he be moving slow at midnight. But I still believe the fines is extortion because no road sign whatsoever, atimes you forget speed limit when you are in hurry. Imagine, Omoapena was fined at 65km/phr. Moreso, 80km/hr on 3MB is not fair for such highway. |
Gentlelife50:@Gkithronix, you see yourself now. Na your car ehailing cousin ... You better call for a meeting and talk to your cousins or get deodorant for them
|
Pearl1910:They've hacked Pearl account ![]() |
GeneralZodd:If it was Pearl that was invited to this morning program on NigeriaInfo, he would have defended Bolt with one of his balls that they have enough security ... Kofi would have been frustrated by his optimism nature. Pearl would said bolt have security escorts for each driver on trip with special drones monitoring drivers while on trip. Nevertheless, his optimism helps sometimes. |
BAZ001:I am surprised at you BAZ001 .. you are now changing goal post. I was expecting you to continue your week in week out inconsistency songs. But now, is about daily dollars raking. It is high time you apologized to these veterans that have prove you wrong that, week in, week out high earnings is possible. Though, the week in , week out consistency.is yet to be a general norm, as many of us on rentals are having different view. And when are you doing giveaway Baz? ![]() |

Barbiturate:The first instance is the issue you narrated. Uber blocked me for issues like this. I had to mail and blast them, just hear my side of the story or check my records, I have never had issue with any rider until that day, next day, they unblocked me. Also, Uploading my renewed insurance on Uber is always hectic for me, despite the details on NIID, uber will say Insurance number not tally. I can be on that for days because they would have block your access to the app. Wetin concern Bolt with car papers, just carry their rider from point A to B and they get their commission, everybody is fine. More so, Uber will block you for inspection because a rider that doesn't like you complained about your car despite your inspection is up to date. They are just too perfect for this kind of Nigeria environment. It is getting difficult to do the right thing in this porous and frustrating Nigeria environment. I really like Uber, but they don't understand the system. Presently, I am not sure if acceptance rate still affect drivers, but if it does, then they have more issue. |
Barbiturate:Good one. May be when you try it,you can actually determine which is better. But the bottom line about these ehailing apps is, none is better than the other. If you have access to the 3 apps, you have to know when to switch. There are atimes that you will hate the sound of Indriver whenever Bolt opens the tomatoes border. And there are some 'locations' you will have to put off your Bolt app and stay with indriver or Uber. But Uber likely frustrate you with long pick up and some of their rules is way too stringent for a country like Nigeria. Only bolt understand that Nigeria is partly country/Zoo ... However , the grand rules still remains, do what works for you. Or whichever you mastered. Glithromix has eaten indriver vegetable concussion, he refused to leave. Nonetheless, "No loyalty in this ehailing" business, (Felicity001, 87BC.) |
Glithronix:If I hear Bolt gban gban on your phone, I go break your side mirror ..... We no want you. The tomato stew Bolt prepared for us for December can't be shared with you and your Hushpuppi Indrive .... And if you refuse, na Ikorodu girls Bella go dey give you. But who are these guys that flocks your app lately, making false orders? Are they checking other drivers pictures or using that to console themselves for their burnt fastest fingers? Everybody go dey alright eventually. Small respect, boss ![]() |
Pearl1910:Pearl Uche Mahmood Akpabio, so you shared all the prayers to people's mail and excluded me. Send my own palliative oo
|
Omoapena:Most of them are the one agitating for drivers association so they can exploit ehailing drivera while they seat in offices and drivers driving around like headless chicken. They always have alterior motives despite the claim of fighting for drivers benefits from the ehailing apps. Imagine few of them at the helm of the affairs. Already claiming parking zones . |
Pearl1910: By fire, it won't resolved. ... Efcc will block your account and seize the money...

Pearl1910:Mahmood Yakubu Pearl!!!

I don laugh tire this morning ... Even goal post sef don tire ... Very funny. Abeg make una no back down like Barby said. I don dey calculate the possible amount that will get to me... @ [[ |
pope191: small play you turn it to gidigbo. |
Pearl1910:We are going to protest this list by IFSHR and Pearl . You put boss Izzou, Tojah, Pearl and Pope wey no need money. We are protesting the list. |
God bless you @IFSHR for this subsidy . Is really a good one this period. Abeg where is ... Come credit me. |
@Glithronix, what are you guys up to! I can't go online on indriver except I allow them use my location "all the time" instead of "when using the app". Why will indriver want to have my location"all the time". I just feel is not right. |
Pearl1910:Those guys are very good. You can not imagine extent they can go. They always appear big and some use thick voice like big brother Naijja voice or different fake accent,just to cajole desperate drivers. The truth is, your helper will never stress you. We've heard series of testimonies in the past here, they were simple conversation that comes with great help. Not all these broken reed riders that build castles in the air. They will request for offline trips but not ready to pay for your time and the conveniences you will provide them. The bottom line is, always NEGOTIATE without been greedy and the good ones will add the tip you are expecting. |
Boss @Izzou, how are you sir . . @Omoapena, please be sure you are not bugged ooo ... I hope the man is not even reading your response here because one way or the other, he might have run a background check on you as well. But thank God you are fine... Atleast for now |
These delivery bike guys have to be more careful with the way they maneuver and ride, especially on 3MB. Saw one accident involving one and Corolla now at the exit of Moloney. The bike guy died, gruesome view. Sone of them don't even use helmet. Is really sad this morning. His family will be expecting him by evening . |
. Bolt is just necessary evil app. You have to play along to survive. Imagine the ridiculous fares lately. Also note: there are lots of 9-5 people taking all these ridiculous trip just to get to their office.
