I am a newbie in this e-hailing biz and my discovery is that Tuesday's are usually dull days..

hope you click fare review before ending the ride?

mistadayo:
Maybe your phone calculated something wrong and the rider can see the right fee. What type of phone do you use.

murtala mohamed road is yaba/ebute metta abi... Ur trip fare is correct i think ur rider is a nice perzin

shollywendy1:

nitigriti:
I'm stubborn ooo when it comes to these LASTMA and Police guys. Some examples
1) Yesterday, at that roundabout near LASUTH, those traffic policemen and women came to stop me because the light turned red after I had crossed the traffic light. "Gerrout of my front", I bellowed at them, with authority. They scampered away
2) There was a time LASTMA stopped me at Ahmadu Bello Way inward Adeola Odeku. They said I blocked the 2nd lane turning off Ahmadu Bello into Adeola Odeku. The officer asked for my driving license, I gave him (color photocopy). He then asked for my vehicle particulars. I told him they were in the booth, that he should let me park well so I can get them. Before he accepted or not, I drove off

last week, i didn't use my handsfree nor Bluetooth. Then i held my phone to my ear receiving riders call, moving slowly under apongbon bridge... One lastma officer just appeared in front, raised his hand for me to stop. Never...

I hit the gas pedal and aimed to break his two legs. The guy flew like a mat. I watched him on mirror adjusting his cap. He couldn't believe it. (dont try it if dem bring that their chukuchuku thing wen dey pierce tyre o)

Gentlelife50:
Na waoo, so sorry. It happens often this job. Thank God the man left. And didn't bother you again, he's such a considerate person or he has insurance.

yes... If u see as venza clean ehn

GAZZUZZ:

how i managed to go scot free still baffles me

GAZZUZZ:
your day was good o! You dodged a bullet

A damaging slap precisely. Part of me was prepared

Gentlelife50:
My bumber sef don comot inside one pool of water.

me i smashed one toyota venza for side( owner an army officer on mufti) en route magodo with rider. We were racing together and he attempted a u turn suddenly... No pointer indicator. Gboaaahhhhh! is what he heard, i hit the brake but was too late plus the road was wet and slippery.(accepted another waiting request, taxify)

Got down... Oga i need to go drop my passenger, wait i will be back to settle this.
No... I will seize ur car and ur passenger.

Oga u didn't traffigate o...
No... I did but not early
Ok... I didn't see it and i didn't know u would turn. I am sorry for hitting you.
Oga: so what do we do?
(now we are getting drenched in the rain already)
Oga what do u want me to do?
Oga: this thing would chop minimum of 100k ( maybe true cos one of his chrome was damaged)
Oga i dont have money, but i have 5k cash in the car(rider still waiting o)

Oga look me bad eye for like 2mins. I still apologize again. He entered his car and zoomed off

Drop rider, picked the next one. But front passengers door wouldn't open, as my fender and bunper injured and bent in.

Estimated repair cost 7k

Was on 16k around 1pm before the incident as i started early.

I done close dey chill for vip bar for next match. Today was mixed.

GAZZUZZ:
Car owners I shall see you this week...


Even me I pity my self I will also see me this week too

not me... I used magic this week

So i got to pick up location (uber). six hefty middle age women came out of the restaurant.
They wanted another car, but can't order....

I told them i could order another car using my taxify app, they agreed.
Taxify regular was 6 mins ETA
Taxify Lite was 1 min
Of course i clicked lite....

1. The guy was so close, if he used the map he would meet us in less than 4mins. He started tuning round, free road o. He arrived 15mins

2. He came with a car having different number plate from what he registered on his profile.
I just told the 3 women in my car: this is not supposed to be the car to pick ur 3 other colleagues, the right driver but the number plate is different o
Women: cab is cab we are running late jare....
Me(ok o)

Guys dey do ojoro for taxify sha...

On billings way chilling with other drivers(alone in the car)
Few minutes ago, a girl just walk up to my car, knocked and said; pls i need a request.
I quickly got down and ask; do u drive uber or taxify?
She: i do both, i just need a request on taxify to add to d bonus counts. (wonderment!) At last i came face to face with a lady driver)

We chat, laughed.

Ok lemme request you... Hold on.
A request from someone else entered her phone. She want a trip to the island. Already set destination on uber(impressive)
She called to ask destination ; Cement. Agege.
She declined.
Ok lemme request you
Immediately another entered her phone. This time she ask me : why only her was getting the request. Are u not online
Me: i am. maybe u are luckier.

She ask; is ur car lite or regular.
Me: regular na
She: i am getting the lite requests. Mine is 2003.(clean corolla CE).

Lesson: people are getting informed about the lite and using it. So nice.


(yes she gave me her number na. Lives between agungi and chevron)
She; see you whenever....
Me: ok bye

TheCar:
If we forget Uber/Taxify, then what are we doing here.

Is VW built good for this business?

Would you rent a VW built as a driver since it's far ahead of Japanese built?

Would you like to take the car on hire-purchase while you handle all repairs and maintenance?

If your answer is Yes, then please contact the seller to buy the car.

i can rent a 2008 1.4ltr golf 5 if uber accepts it

miliki777:

GAZZUZZ:
I receive an average of 150 calls every day, over 95per are from NL, some of you are nice and ask if it is a good time to talk, others just start talking about their car problems like you pay me to answer calls.

Some of you call at odd hours of the night and expect me to be nice.

Some of you call repeatedly (5-10 times repeatedly)


My response will be reciprocal to your approach.

I bought a Bluetooth head piece so I can multi-task while taking your numerous calls.

I have multiple threads for responding to queries, I have a mail box, there is an Sms option too.

I have a life outside fixing vehicles respect it.

Here is how you should do it:
You don't have to pick all calls (use a voice box)
If you must pick but cannot talk much, announce it to the caller as soon as you pick up. Suggest another time for him to call.
Some callers squeeze time to place their call cause they are very busy and they want to rush the talking. Politely tell them to call back or return the call when free...

(as of odd hour calls.... Heheheheh. Me i don't even pick calls once i am on bed and its 11pm. But i can chat till midnight lol)

Meanwhile the first and only time i called you. You sounded calm and welcoming. Nice.

Even before the fire incident.. Traffic was all over Lagos

thebigkendo:
But we are talking uber/taxify on this thread Will you buy this car for Uber/Taxify?

yes. private car owners come here to read too lol

GAZZUZZ:
Taxify drivers, when you are tyring to meet up with the last min trips to complete campaign, drop your exact coordinate here let one of us epp you meet up.

good idea. GAZZUZZ if u grow u go know book ehn....

chybaz:
This is funny, and quite explanatory that u are not an experienced mechanic when it comes to volkswagen. You need no repair manual to fix a VW. All you need do is to plug a system for diagnosis. And vuala, that's it. The system tells u the fault, not loke Japanese cars that dont have good shocks and mechanic can cheat u with a Japanese car. But with a volkswagen, the system already tells what's faulty.
Vw has the cheapest shocks, and very cheap parts at Itire (by Ladipo), same mushin axis.
Car with more balance, stronger engine and everlasting shocks.

(Since i was born and now i am still getting young; i have never seen danfo or this volkswagen park someone up on the road; brothers have u seen)

lets forget uber/taxify VW technology/built is far ahead of any Japanese counterparts

Don't even argue biko

pafo:
Never going to happen. I read they are running at a loss even at the 25 percent and it doesnt look like it will change with drivers still running the cars. Thats why they were testing the driverless cars thingy and that looks to have hit a snag for the forseeable future.

Reducing that commission is a dream that will not happen.

Then taxify would totally snooker them pretty soon...

What if Uber justs slash it to 13% commission? I wonder how drivers and taxify would react

brogxy:
But the drivers are not protected.
No cancellation fee, and I don't think u can get ur money if a rider doesn't pay.
But I like the bonus part, I still got the 9k promo during the weekend

for the first time on Taxify, Friday, one rider nearly got away with my money. He rushed upstairs to tell his aunt to transfer the money. Didn't transfer nada... I got another request to d airport, so i left. Switched off his phone till Saturday nite. When i got him he said he forgot, i will see d money now now. Didn't send. Called him on sunday and ask him why. Another excuse.
I just told him if you dont send my money i will report u to taxify, ur security at the estate gate and publish ur number lol. Sunday night i saw my 1500 alert. Taxify need to add compensation oo

brogxy:
Taxify just doesn't want drivers to use other apps.
Campaigns round the clock.
5 am -9 am
9 am -4 pm
4 pm -9 pm

d thing dey sweat here oh. But body go tell sha

blackfm:
Play their ego. I picked Sunny Ade about 2 months ago. Fare was 600 and when he stretched 1k to pay i told him im not charging that its not everyday i carry Kings. Helped his get his bag from the trunk and came back to see 5k on the back seat.
Stay woke!

wow nice one. I copy dat. The time i saw 1k on my seat was when i help the Yankee old man with his luggage from the booth. I didn't realize until i got d next trip request 20 mins after. Had to text him for his kind gesture sha

shollywendy1:
But Viktor gave me tips after the fare....infact, I took one lady always dressed like a man(standing beside Davido on stage to celebrate the headies award with him) to agungi too early dis year. We have not even gotten anywhere on the trio when we sighted a flood as a result of the heavy rain that day. She alighted in front of aba amusa estateended the trip .trip was #400, she gave me 2k also and flew a bike.

i only carried liz benson sometime ago, then i was very new on uber alone. I was too nervous self. She got down and said thank you. May God bless you. Card trip.
What about the day i was to deliver gifts to Mike adenuga's wife.... I said to my self, today na today!
At the banana island gate i mentioned mike adenuga, no check no code dey passed me immediately.
Me: madam i am at the gate
Madam: ok my housemaid will come get them from you.

One yeye looking Lebanese lady came, pick d gifts. And i stood there for minute looking like wtf! Abegi....
