There's nothing to do but complain to Bolt,
Ask for full compensation when they offer 50% of the money.
They will follow up with the Rider and eventually pay u or ask the Rider to pay.

Next time, if the person paying is not the person riding, collect your money before u let them go except u know it's easy to come back to either pickup up or drop off point and request for your money. No sentiments unless it's an amount I can let go.
This also applies to deliveries, I get my payment before I let go of the package. Next trip will wait, if they cancel I will get another one. I will not be rushing for another bush meat when d current one in my hand hasn't been properly bagged.

Bolt without their campaigns sometimes is such a struggle.

I feel those campaigns are even our money sef - Like 9 rides for 9k - I feel that's part of the high commission we pay to Bolt that they decide to give back a few times a month, with high requirements. I still remember the one of 11k for 13 rides. I been wan faint that day.

Without those campaigns, it's a struggle for me on the island with all these N2k trips. I even saw one today for N1.8k, I was shocked. Though it was a short trip, but still man, chai.

Bought 18k fuel today and could barely gross 36k

Bought 12k fuel yesterday and in trying to gross 24k, my fuel finished, lol. Though I did run some personal errands, but still. Thank God i was near a filling station when the car shut down.

No surge recently on the island, what gives? Guess too many cars here, awon lagride, bolt, uber, cabzero...

Sometimes you get generous tippers that make your day worth it. Like this Angel guy that paid 15k to wait for a little bit. Excellent income while car is shutdown and petrol consumption is zero.

With no tipping, no campaigns, meeen!

Bolt needs to increase prices slightly men and drop their commission.

But it seems they will never, ever, ever drop that commission.

I was just looking at my monthly statement on Bolt and noticing how much I pay in commission. Like you'd see 300k and I know fuel would probably have been like 150k, so net for me would be like 150k, yet YOU'D SEE LIKE 80K BOLT COMMISSION, CHAI.

I feel like a slave sometimes, so I get 150k with all the suffering and they get 80k for doing almost nothing WTF?

northbird:
Are you sure? cos that set up doesn't smell corporate banking at all..

Pearl1910:
Cabzero currently has same MO two drivers per car 15days work/month each driver. delivering 80k Gross daily but it's d company that pays for the charging of the cars.
Then driver is paid salary.

Kumuyiii:
Them never reduce their commission, na them wan buy fleet? Be responsible for those fleet, the headache that comes with maintenence and paying hundreds of drivers. You think organizations are dumb? Why will they throw away a perfecting good working model for a shitty one?

If you ask me, they started this rumor to actually make people forget the fight wey carry them go so called roundtable. To make them defensive rather than offensive. They're not going to do it, there's no upside over current model, they won't change what is not broken, they won't pour money into a sector that is already bringin money. Most drivers own their car, so there'll be shortage of drivers to wooing their shitty web.

I think they succeeded in the agenda, the meeting was useless, them no go increase fares. Iran don open strait, it'll take a while for fuel price to come down but hopefully it will.

I know this fight started with justice from somebody by Verydarkman however I was expecting this brawl to have ended long ago and this energy to be directed to those in authority who are not accountable to the people of Nigeria who gave them their opportunity to manage the revenue of this country..

Great guy. I sha know say me and you go meet one day

saudatu:
Wow that's huge but even at that, we the drivers are the core of this business, imagine giving you 10m but no driver to accept your request wount you close their app and open e.g indrive where you know you get driver in minutes? The truth is, Uber gave the the leverage not really what they spend on add and the rest.

capetownboyz:

Bolt spending on customer acquisition is nothing new, infact,its normal for a new product coming into the competitive market to spend on advertisement, promotions, campaigns-via various channels in order just to gain foothold.
Afterall,profits can't be made or realized if people don't book rides which is what has been applied over the years thereby expanding its operations into multiple states across nigeria.

In addition,it has broadened its services beyond ride-hailing to include food delivery, corporate transportation solutions among others.

Overall, this pattern reflects a deliberate and strategic effort to build market presence, encourage user adoption, and create a foundation for long-term growth.

saudatu:
Honestly, it makes sense for Nigerian drivers’ unions and transport associations to stop depending on foreign ride-hailing companies and instead partner with Nigerian investors to create a local alternative—something similar to InDrive, but designed around Nigerian realities and we dump their f*ass once and for all.

Laughingkk:
Who told you that?
Are you a Finnish citizen?

Everybody go dey form I AM AWARE for Nairaland
Just dey play

Opintiwa:
I don't think so .

They don't arrest citizens like that because a crime was not committed against Finland.

Morning Doctors and Fellow NLders.

Let me cut the story short!

I am 32 and For like 3months now I have been having this penile thick Discharge whenever I pass stool.

This only happens when I pass stool, I have visited several Hospitals FMC (GOMBE) SPECIALIST (GOMBE) then moved to abuja GENERAL (KUBWA) and private (KELINA & PRIMUS) . did urine/stool test yet they would say they spot Nothing. At both FMC,SPECIALIST,GENERAL
only to prescribe Antibiotics and other medications UTI/STD which I take and the symptoms stopped after some days it would comeback.
I have spent more than I can account on this treatment yet it just won't go away. Our doctors here in Nigeria can’t explain the cause because some would say It's UTI others STD.

Note: even tho i am not Sexual active, I have never had sex with anyone before. in fact I am still a Virgin! Yes at 32.

The last hospital I went Was KELINA(A Turkish owned hospital,those in Abuja Gwarimpa would know it) I spent a huge amount over 130+ yet still after like 2 weeks this same issue is back.
Left Kelina to PRIMUS and did full CT and also kidney/kidney stones Scan at PRIMUS( Indian owned hospital in Karu Abuja) my kidneys are okay nothing found, spent over 200+ for the scan and some drugs.


I just had to bring this issue here!!!

Other symptoms are
At times finding it hard to urinate quick
Split urine
And lower back pain


Please find images below
(Image 1) the last medication I was on, got so angry that I threw away the other packs because I was so pissed When I caught the Doctor using Google as I explain my issue to him.
I Was able to find this one tho

(Image 2) last stool test result i did, can't find those of the urine

(Image 3) Discharge


Please someone should help me, before I end up with ED or impotent in future.

Speak to him about it..if he doesn'tsn't head to your advice then i'd advise you file for a divorce!
The thing is pathological gambling has the potential to destroy marriages – and if your soon-to-be-ex has a gambling problem...you know how difficult it can be to deal with...When you're divorcing someone with a gambling issue..you're up against many obstacles...You might even question whether your companion has a gambling problem or is simply reckless and irresponsible...

Many people have misconceptions regarding what constitutes problematic gambling... Your partner may have a gambling addiction even if he does not gamble every day or can afford to lose money..

Gambling addiction is frequently marked by:
• Feeling compelled to keep gambling a secret..

• When there isn't enough money to spare he gambles..

• Having difficulties keeping his gambling under control..
Spouses and children frequently pay the price for one person's gambling addiction...Bills may go unpaid..budgets may have to be stretched, and gambling can even result in job loss...

It may sound cliched.. but gamblers must desire to seek help...You won't help your spouse stop gambling unless he recognizes that there is a problem and is eager to seek treatment... Even so..your companion must adhere to the treatment plan and in most situations refrain from gambling...
If you're considering divorcing someone with a gambling addiction.. the first thing you should do is go to a divorce lawyer..

Your lawyer can explain how alimony is calculated and how your marital property (or debt) will be shared. He or she will also respond to any of your inquiries about the divorce process taking into account your specific circumstances... Enjoy!

Nobody is stalking anybody, they even complain that I don’t have anyone’s time. I really just feel bad for the husband because he’s always seeking company outside his marriage but since everyone is misunderstanding my intent no need explaining further

AreaFada2:
Cruise or no cruise, we have all seen what you wrote and perceivably worse among couples. Different relationships have different dynamics.

Some relationships we thought within us that were odd when I was a kid, decades later, the couples are waxing stronger. They are celebrating 50th wedding anniversary or more, even renewing wedding vows in their 80s and 90s.

Those couples that seemed exemplary back then, most are not even alive anymore. Their kids are not necessarily more successful.

All those who are married or have observed marriages carefully will know by now that nobody really has the magic formula for marriage. Everybody is a student in that institution.
