Fake Alerts and Rider Scam:

I don't reject transfer except if you are going to the airport or Lagos island. But you MUST agree to wait for confirmation before I release my bank account details. The only confirmation I care about is the one from my phone.
N:B there are exceptions though; if you are sitting in the from and I follow the whole transfer process from A-Z.

These tips could help-
1. Try to have as much account from different banks as you can.

2. If a rider asks "which bank", reply with "which one are you sending from let's see if I can save you some transfer fee?"
The idea of saving them transfer fee cancels the perception of being rude. An average rider believes they are better than you.

3. If you don't have every other bank, try to have Access in your toolkit. From experience it delivers alert swiftly.

4. If a rider starts to tell you how his Benz is costing him serious money or how he just bought a car for his girlfriend. (You know those kind of unsolicited gist) BE ON YOUR GUARD.

5. If for example a rider trip is from Agungi to Chevron and on getting to Chevron you are pitching going to Egbeda in the next couple of hours to me. Bros, I can wait for your alert for the next 45 minutes. Don't get greedy.

6. Don't get greedy, if you are waiting for an alert and 2.4x surge enters am not leaving without seeing your money. A bird at hand... And it takes an average surge more than 5 minutes to vanish completely.

7. To minimize waiting time for payment confirmation, of you are not a fan of bank App be sure to have internet banking. They let you know what's up even when text alert delays.

Guard your money guys, you worked for it. They are not doing you favours.

Gurus of offlines. The like of slamstanlee, chucsmoore, pope etc.
LASG said offline trip is prohibited ooo.
Lol

shollywendy1:

Kindly ignore. They are speculations by bloggers.
The govt regulation does not have any effect on driver-partners but the app companies that have been failing to comply with the requirements to operate.
Why will uber/bolt be claiming to be remitting tax from the 25%/20% from every trip taken from us all this while? Yet, we are using all the amenities that other road users that pays tax uses.
Its just a pity that we only have a dead govt that go after the innocent drivers instead of dealing with the app companies.
Im only against the approach they are making by impounding driver's cars instead of shutting the app companies they have business with.
Besides, there is no official report from govt to all these speculations that flies around

Angryiboman post should be the wall paper for this thread. Both newbies and oldies can learn a lot from his post.

I really dont see how someone who wants to achieve something in life will say Bolt is better than Uber? In what dimension are you living?


PRO TIP : when I was driving, I only use bolt trips for cash to run uber..cos I love uber card trips. It's the surest way you can see atleast 25k in your account every monday. Try that on bolt.

The kind of people you will meet on Uber you can never meet on Bolt.

My own opinion.

northbird:


Uber temporarily axed my acct @ 13% cancelation. and they carry over ur cancelations.

Bolt, for every 40 trips you get, you are allowed to complete 18-20 trips, you are fine.

On Monday morning, you start afresh as regards cancelation issues.


Wateva suits you. Like I said. Knowing d intended destination is non negotiable for me.

As long as I can see where I'm heading to. Bolt is the king.

tunlapapa:


This is about doing what suits you.
I have an active bolt account but stopped working with it after making enumerations of the disadvantages attached to working on bolt, I decided to work only with the app that gives a peace of the mind.
I can't display what I make here but I believe there are people who work smartly and not running around the whole state believing they are moving lagos. The highest surge on taxify is 1.9 while I have taken 3.~ severally on Uber, and an average surge I chase on Uber is 2 and above.

How can you compare 5% with 3% that has been making several killing right from Tuesday to Sunday (count it and see that's a whole 5 days of lesser stress).
You also said bolt fares are higher?
Riders claim bolt is cheaper while drivers say bolt pays higher, now tell me who is the serpent deceiving both parties and that is one of the reasons (bolt is deceitful) I dumped them.
Surge only makes their fares defer but same when no surge.
( Uber: 11/min, 60/km, 200 base fare) (bolt: 10/min, 65/km, 200km base fare). I would like to know the difference on a 20km trip.


Like I said earlier that it is whatever rocks your boat.

kodred:
Honestly, I don’t see any big deal with transfers. If all businesses accept transfer, I won’t ever walk around with cash. It’s really no big deal, just be smart about it. A gt acct works real good because the transactions are really fast.

While picking up a rider, observe the environment and also your rider in case of ‘failed transfer’.

Don’t just drive your car, be a DRIVER.

nitigriti:


My Oga.

I hear what you are not saying. I will let peace reign on the thread now.

nitigriti:
What I've noticed about guys on this thread is that they resort to insults and abuses when they lose an argument or they don't agree with someone else's point of view.

Guys, I will freely express my point of view on this thread. I'm not here for you people's likes or social clout.
And if anyone feels he can insult me or shade me and go scot-free, that person has another thing coming. Like I always say, nobody has the monopoly of insults or shades.

And trust me, no one can do it better than me. I write words for a living. I can kill, literally, with the words I write.

So calling me senseless pig and the likes; I will just allow that slide for now. Next time, I will reply not just in kind, but directly.

My last warning to everyone shading me. Like SlamStanlee will say, we can agree to disagree.

Please how do you check price during the trip?
