Maybe there should be “A Word Of The Day” series to enlighten and educate people on the advantages and disadvantages of Hire Purchase and Weekly Rental Payment.

When people are well informed, making decisions and choices becomes extremely Easy.

Oga, if you don't know just say you don't know, let's all teach each other.

TheCar:
The highlighted are your blunders.

You claimed to be experienced in the business, you write guide for newbies and also have documents for sale but the highlighted above seriously cast some doubts about what you claimed to understand and the type of advise you give new car owners that comes to you for directions doing Uber/taxify business.

1. Someone who can’t afford to feed himself or herself wouldn’t even thought of having millions in his/her account to buy a car for Uber business. So I assumed (might be wrong) that a car owner doing Uber business has passed Struggle/Survival stage (which is ability to feed yourself). Go read and understand these face of life: Struggle - Survival - Success - Significance.

2. Because a Car Owner collect 20k Security Deposit (Assurance Deposit) Now automatically transfer ownership of a car worth above 1 million and in some case 2 - 4 Million to the driver. Boss, wetin happen?

3. So as a fleet manager (which you claimed to be) once a car owner give you a car and you deliver weekly rental twice the car becomes your property but when it’s time to pay expenses like repairs, insurance or car documents renewal it becaomes car owner property. Why Now, Oga experience.

I recommend you take time to under business concepts very well.

To understand the business side of Uber very well you need to read and understand the HEN & EGGS theory.

And please you need to be very diplomatic in your comments, you run a business on this thread so be mindful of your image and perception.

The highlighted aren’t good for business like yours.

............................................


To car owners and drivers, first understand that this is business. So please make your business, a business.

Money only exchange hands once value has been delivered.

For car owners, your partner (driver) isn’t your slave but rather your business partner in Uber. Treat them with dignity because we are all human.

To Drivers, the car doesn’t belong to you once you pay Security Deposit and you’re not doing the car owner any favours driving his/her car on Uber. This is a business transaction so make it strictly business. Don’t damage the car, don’t be reckless with the car and value your health. Be open to learn about opportunities and never ever let your relationship with any car owner be Master - Slave. Don’t tolerate any abuse (that’s if you’re upright and haven’t abuse any opportunity given to you by the car owner or the car which you have be assigned to drive on Uber/Taxify).

We are here to make money.

The drivers need car owners likewise car owners need drivers.

Drivers would be jobless without cars whereas it would be waste of investment if car owner can’t find a driver to use his/her for Uber business.

So please, let us forget stories and go make money joor.

I will reply your points one after the other, patiently.

Go read and understand these face of life: Struggle - Survival - Success - Significance.

I say:
1.Unless you haven't travelled far before you think everybody that can afford to be a partner on Uber has passed Struggle/Survival mode. I don't have to read up on any "face" of life to know that. As a fleet manager, I have managed cars for many students who tell me that their vehicle is their only asset, and that is where they draw their sustenance from. I have managed vehicles for people who lost their jobs and depend solely on the return their car will give them. You agreeing you may be wrong has nullified your point anyway. Simply because you can't agree you are wrong then base your argument on that same falsehood.

You said
2. Because a Car Owner collect 20k Security Deposit (Assurance Deposit) Now automatically transfer ownership of a car worth above 1 million and in some

I say:
2. I know you read what I wrote because you quoted it. At what point did you read that you should transfer ownership to the driver because he paid assurance. I encourage you to embolden it as you have done the other paragraphs, I want you to catch me red handed on this one. If you can't do that, then you are only replying to what you think I said VS what I actually said.
But come brother, let's use regular logic, when a landlord rents a house out and agreements have been signed. If the tenant is using the house responsibly under the terms of the agreement [/b]and is [b]paying his money currently, does the landlord have a right to come and tell the tenant how to sit on his toilet bowl. If an Act of God occurs that is neither landlord nor tenant's fault and something spoils in the house. Guess what, tenant calls almighty Oga landlord to come fix,and Oga landlord fixes. You know why, because he has paid Oga assurance for the year.
As I said in the post you quoted, once the renter has paid for the car, and he is using it responsibly (which we check four times a month) under the terms of the agreement you both signed, you have no right to tell him he must drive the car, or not drive the car. That is none of your business. I say this very carefully as a fleet manager, unless you don't know how rental works before you can suggest otherwise, if you do not know, ask. You must allow the renter piece of mind to use his rental, it's the law.
Why would anyone hand over ownership of their vehicle after collecting assurance deposit, that makes no sense to me.


You said:
3. So as a fleet manager (which you claimed to be) once a car owner give you a car and you deliver weekly rental twice the car becomes your property but when it’s time to pay expenses like repairs, insurance or car documents renewal it becomes car owner property. Why Now, Oga experience.

I say:
3. I don't understand what you wrote here as regarding what I wrote, they don't seem to be related.
Oga sir, I hope you know that under rental agreement such expenses are borne by owner, that is standard operating procedure unless otherwise stated in agreement, repair bill is footed by owner, damages bill must be covered by driver. Vehicle owner is required to put the car in shape so that the renter can enjoy what he is paying for. Under which law will you convert the car to your property after rent is paid twice?


You said: And please you need to be very diplomatic in your comments, you run a business on this thread so be mindful of your image and perception.

I say: Being diplomatic does not mean I can't have an opinion, so long as it is not abrasive or hurtful. That you simply do not agree with me is not me being un-diplomatic.

If money can only be earned after value has exchanged hands, how come you prepay your rent and prepay your NEPA and prepay your MTN but you don't want to prepay your rental. If that is the case, car dealers are everywhere, you can always walk up to one of them and tell them you want one week of value using the car before you pay.

In the end, I know it might seem you disagree with me, but your final points prove that, it is really yourself you disagree with. As I said in my earlier post, the driver with assurance is a renter and with him, a car owner is better protected.
It is the one that pays at the end of the week that can be called your driver, it is he you have to be chasing up and down for payment and damage claims.

So please stop this Nigerian landlord entitlement mentality thing you have, it is not needed in business. When you rent out a car with assurance, you are the one offering a service to the renter. He is the one paying money. The customer is king. In as much as you are inclined to disagree, you are not some Lord of the manor, bossing it over your harem of drivers. You are actually a service provider and your job is to make sure you provide top notch service by providing a good Uber ready car.

When you go to AVIS to rent a car with your hard earned cash and pay, who exactly is the service provider and who is the customer?
So because someone is renting your car with his hard earned money for Uber, he must call you boss, what exactly do you need the title for. I would rather get paid than be called boss.

I will keep saying it, a driver with assurance is your customer. Not your staff, nor slave. His job is to keep the car in the condition it was given out, under agreement and pay you. If he damages, he pays or repairs immediately.

The rider is the renter's boss.
The renter with assurance is the car owner's boss, and the car owner is the fleet manager's boss.
As you can see, there is no overall boss, or boss of all bosses or any thing like that. Everybody does his shift and goes home. That is how the partnership works.
I know it is a total mindset shift for you but you will get used to it.

I ordinarily would not reply this, but some of your allusions made it unavoidable. I have nothing but total respect for and would love to hear more from you.

Why must I sell my car because I want to do Uber business. HP is devilish and selfish.
"Is it bad if I rent you my car so you can eat:... "Nooo oga I must own your car oooo"

You are not renting the car out so he can eat, you are renting the car out so you can make money. In actual fact, he is renting the car from you so you can eat. Unless of course you don't take a remittance.
There are people that rent Uber vehicles and pay out of pocket just to have a car to drive around in.

When a driver pays #Assurance, he is your renter. At this time, he is boss.
It is when you fail to collect #Assurance, you can start to call the person your driver, It is now you are boss. Before that, he is your renter.


Partners often misinterpret their roles and therein lies the problem. A vehicle owner's job is to provide an Uber enabled vehicle. What the driver plans to do with it is his business. So long as it is covered in the Rental/HP agreement (which I have for sale for a small token).

In fact the driver can rent the car and be using it to pick only ladies if he wants to, as long as he makes the car payment every week or as stipulated in the Rental/HP Agreement which you both earlier signed.

That is what every car rental agent in the world would do. As long as what he is using the vehicle for is legit and covered by the terms, and he is using the vehicle in a responsible manner. Whether Uber pays on Sunday, or Togo got to the moon before America, that is renter's business to handle.

My job as a vehicle owner is to make the car Uber compliant and in good working condition so that I don't hear excuse that you didn't make money and you were limited because the car was not Uber ready, wouldn't it be ironic if that is now the same excuse the driver is using to not pay me. That that same Uber has not paid therefore I can't be paid. Ogbeni, that excuse is too long.

For the Renters, please pay #assurance, it puts you in a position to have a say. It fosters respect.
When you pay #assurance you know it is your money you are chasing, if you truly value working for yourself and saving up to start your own business, this is it. If you are a well-planned individual and you have your assurance deposit in hand, you have the whole city at your feet. You can pick and choose!

We know some weeks it is impossible to not default, but even if you do, the partner will be willing to work with you because he knows it won't be easy to get another good driver who is ready to pay #Assurance.

This is why I advocate #Agreement and #Assurance

Don't play with your business. Sign an agreement and collect/pay your assurance today.

Lol. I kept trying to change it to 2016. Thanks.

One experience every single person should try in a life time is to become an Uber driver. It is a fantastic experience, full of ups and downs. But absolutely enjoyable.
I took the plunge in September 2016. Up till then, I had only heard good things about it. How much money you could make, how many places you got to visit and how many people you got to meet. I love to interact with intelligent people.
So i went in head first, and I have to say it has been a great experience.
I am someone you could call a casual Uber driver, I guess.
Since September 2016, I have done a grand total of 900 trips, an average of about 10 trips every week. And in this time I have made a good deal of money, and met a handful of people. I have met a less than savoury character once or twice, the majority of my riders are wonderful people.
I find that usually if I respect myself, people tend to do the same with themselves. And I am fine with that.
I make good money driving, indeed anybody can, combining hard and smart work. I have a plan and I stick to it, I know when and where to drive even if I don't drive that often.
And the conversations, oh the conversations I have had and the ones I have listened in on(unfortunately, sometimes I don't have much of a choice). All I can say is wonderful. Absolutely wonderful.
And I have been to a lot of nice places.
Because I am very service oriented and make sure to give every single rider a great experience, I now have friends all around the city. And for some inexplicable reason, I tend to have riders who are really cool.
Personally, I think every adventurous person should give driving on Uber a try. Because after all is said and done, what could beat having fun while you make money.

Insurance is very very important for ridesharing, your car is your business, traversing the city making money for you. It only makes sense to protect that investment.
Uber announced its insurance policy for drivers, and the figures seem good.

Here are Uber’s insurance figures:
Medical expenses Up to NGN 2,250,000*

Ground ambulance Expenses NGN 20,000

Permanent disability (total or partial) Up to NGN 7,500,000

Death Up to NGN 7,500,000

Funeral Expenses NGN 100,000

Annual cost to partner NGN 0

*Medical expenses amounting to less than ₦10,000 are not covered.

But there is one fact that isn’t here, and that fact is very important.
Uber’s insurance only covers Period 2 and Period 3. Period 2 kicks off as soon as the driver accepts a ride request, all the way till when the driver picks the rider. Period 3 kicks off as soon as the rider enters your car.
These are the two periods you are covered for in Uber’s insurance policy for drivers.
This means that Period 1- which is when you are not online on the app or when you are online but don’t have a trip request yet- is intensely risky for Ride share drivers.

This is called the rideshare gap.
Any unfortunate event that happens during this period is not covered by Uber’s insurance.

Needless to say, it is extremely important to safeguard yourself and your vehicle from hazards that may occur as a result of driving around town ferrying passengers all day
Do not treat your Insurance with kid gloves, get a good cover, one that takes into cognizant your job as a rideshare partner-driver.

You can send me a what's app if you would like to know who I believe the best insurance is for ride-sharing.

Cheers.

Pls. Could You Put Me Through On How To Get A Car Registered With Uber?

You can order my Guide to Uber book, it tells you all you need to know about Uber, sorta like a key points. I put most of my Uber experience into writing the book, the book will make and save you money.

Hello everyone

Chuwaa:
So I decided to use Taxify on arrival and am seeing 200 as Base fare as against 300 in lags, 5.5 waitING time per min.

So I request and dude calls me, we start the trip, oga driver, where is your phone, he said he left it with a fellow driver. So I asked him how he'll end the trip and he said it's about 4000 from Airport to AYA. Meanwhile my app shows 3150 to 3300.

He said they do drop pin at airport and bla bla bla.
I just discovered the trip didn't start at my own app and am wondering how it happened since he called me from the request I sent.

There seems to be some mago mago here. He said he left his phone with a fellow driver who is number 27 on uber queue while he is no 1

I just don't understand
I won't give him more than 3500 shikena.
It's obviously an offline trip. Abeg how una de do am. I have heard about plenty plenty offline trips on this forum.

Here is what happened.
That driver only does airport trips.
Because ride share drivers are queued at the airport, if the driver accepts a trip and starts it, once he drives out of the airport, he is removed from the queue. By the time he gets back to the airport he will have to start from number 27 or whatever number again.This is what he doesn't want, so he has left his phone at the airport so Taxify won't take him out of the queue, now, upon cancellation, taxify will assume he never did your trip and give him another trip immediately he gets back to the airport. There are drivers stationed at the airport who don't do any trips, all they do is hold phones for other drivers and charge for the service.

Driving for Taxify and Uber and actually meeting remittance is not easy and drivers oftentimes have to engage in sharp practices just to meet up. That said, I am not encouraging such.

Really?
