Bro.
I guess no one have advised you on this. But.....
If you're what your Monika says, then your major tool for this Hustle should be an oily cream.

It'll help you after some trips on the Island.

So you mean I have to lubricate my piston after some trips?

PLEASE DONT MIND MY GRAMMERTICAL ERROR KINDLY HELP OUT

Sorry about you engine problems, you should tag that gazzuzz or gazzuz or gazuz guy.

I wouldn’t recommend driving that car though until you get it fixed.

The water has to be going somewhere, and if it isn’t leaking directly to the ground, then it has to be leaking through the engine, i.e head gasket, but that would mean it would be smoking all the time, not just when you start it, or you might have it in the oil, then the oil would be milky.

Why don’t you observe the car at home, in a safe environment. Fill the car up with water, and fill the car up with oil, then idle it while you watch. Of course you should shut the engine off if you hear any grinding sounds, but you should be looking for smoke from the exhaust, oil leaks and so on.

I know almost everywhere on the island, I don't know jack shit about the mainland. Google map helps, you just have to understand it. Since I Re-resumed the hustle, most times I just have to listen to my her voice for the direction instead of looking at the fone.

As for acceptance, I select quite a lot. Todays example below

Okay, gotcha! Thanks for sharing your acceptance rate.

Same here, I have to start learning about the mainland routes, but not while having a rider onboard.

I actually understand google maps as I have been using it personally for years, but when it comes to the mainland, it’s kinda iffy. Last time I used it, it got us stuck. It took us through some street with a community gate that the gateman refused to open. I just don’t want to have to go through that again.

Thanks again bro!

Pearl1910:
Lolz... na Pope be president for Indriver o...but u can cherry pick ur rides on Bolt comfortably. I have tried to educate people that use Indriver because of that reason. Can't remember when last I went to Egbeda, Iyanaipaja, Jakande, Sangotedo, Ikorodu, Itire, Mushin areas last.
No be by force, when the trip enter, pick it and cancel or ignore it. Just try and balance ur activity. For the past 6 months I have not completed upto 30% of total orders that I have gotten.

I don’t know how you guys are signing up for indriver, cause, I can’t receive their code. Maybe it is a 9Mobile issue

FuckEveryday:
Yeah..I target just 20-25k net every weekends..I made the 25k this morning before going to church.
Till next weekend

Dude, do you know everywhere on the mainland or do you have to rely on google maps?

Also do you accept all trips? What is your acceptance rate like?

First day has been kinda rough ooo

My tyre blew up on the second trip, had to call it quits and head home to recharge my mind.

Guess I’m in the lazy driver league now.

Crvrider:
A lot of haggling goes on on Indriver between drivers and a lot of the time a rider will choose to ride with you if your price range is within what they can afford.

How Indriver works is quite simple. A rider requests a ride at a fixed price, now you can choose to go on that request for the riders price or for a price more than what the rider is offering but which will be determined by the app. So by cherry picking I mean I only go for ride requests that are 2k and above, but that is not to say I don't take rides less than 2k.

Hey bro, please how did you sign up for indriver? I am stuck at the beginning of the app were a code is supposed to be sent to my phone, but it never sends.

drmikeadams:
If you know the owner of this car plate number JJJ8!7fy..matrix , he was robbed and shot in mile 2..

Wow! Please can you tell us when and how it happened?

Nastydroid:
someone cannot play with you

This one that people are saying it was play, it didn’t look like play to me ooo. The guys face was stone cold Steve Austin.

Gudvibes06:
What are the questions to expect bro?

Okay so they were looking for cars that were scratch free and it was hard for cars with major scratches to scale through. The dude was even pointing out minor scratches on some cars.

Then they check to make sure that your ac works and your interior is good.

I had to actually go see a panel beater to align my bumper properly, before the inspector passed me.

So to summarize, the exterior must be relatively scratch free, bumpers aligned correctly, AC working, seats and all in good shape.

Maxwell08:
You get irk easily, are you sure you're ready for this job? Why not joke over it and wash your leg without paying

Hmmm, I don’t think he was joking ooo

CheerfulGiver:
You don't sound patient enough for this job.

I guess I need to be more patient sha

Has anyone here tried driving on UberGo?

If so, please is there a way to select whether you want to drive on UberX or UberGo?

So today at the bolt inspection, I stepped inside a puddle of muddy disgusting water, so I was looking for clean water to rinse my feet.

I noticed there was a car wash guy using a pressure washer, so I approached him and asked if he could spray some water on my feet.

Guess what he said -

How much?

Some people in this life ehn! So you cannot spray water on my leg for free? I have to pay you again?

Gentlelife50:
Today is Saturday, just be trying sha.
But getting you activated should be faster on a working day.

I just finished Bolt inspection and they were kinda strict ooo, I wasn’t expecting that, cause when some Uber cars come to pick me up, they aren’t always that “sharp”.

Thank you so much bro! All that is left is for the year of the car to be changed. As it is now, I can go online, but that might be like fraud cause the year of the car is wrong, although it’s tempting to just go online for a first trip.

As you said, I’m sure by Monday, they would have corrected it.

Many many thanks bro

BAZ001:
Axe for what ?

Wait, does this happen?

How will I tell someone to leave my car and they won’t? My car?

Not like I’m gonna ask anyone to leave, but if the situation called for it, how won’t someone leave MY CAR?

Gentlelife50:
Did they reply yet?

Yes, but it’s an automated response.

However though, I can now go online on Bolt, but still have to change the vehicle details on the app before I can drive.

Thanks a lot bro!

XGhost:
If this was some folks here, I can only imagine.
Is it upsetting? Yes.
However what exactly will firing back achieve

0 to a 100 Ni real quick

Real quick!

FuckEveryday:
You won go hunting abi you dey go find money

You can never be too safe bro!

Actually, once I get approved, I’ll add a stun gun to my arsenal

BAZ001:
My brother, u dey quick vex?
if registration is frustrating you like this then warm of double when you start interacting with riders.
Don’t give up, just follow the process, u must have made mistake somewhere it’s not dis difficult.

100k weekly awaits you easily without frustration.

This guy is too funny men!

I’m vexing no be small. I’ve already paid money to fix my leather seats, also gonna pay to drop the oil dump for an oil change to wash the sludge off the engine pickup filter and so on, only for these apps to be pending...

My mind is already prepared for rider abuse sha, I have been reading and noting down the kind of ish you guys have to put up with from riders, so I’m ready for my “walking on hot coal” moment.

I even already have my pepper spray + knife ready, just in case. I have practiced spraying the pepper spray. Was thinking of carrying axe too, but that might be overkill.

Try chatting them on this number on WhatsApp, they will attend to you faster there.

Is this bolt or Uber bro? Guess I will find out, cause I’m adding them NOW!

I give up abeg, both Uber and bolt are just too hard to register

Everything pending...

Can’t go online after taking the training now like 30 times

Mistakes in vehicle year...

Should it really be this difficult to put a car on one of these platforms?


Now I have been told on bolt to register a new vehicle simply because I or someone else got the date wrong. How difficult is it to change the year of a vehicle on a form field?

Maybe they don’t want more cars on their platform

This is what I’m still seeing on bolt and I thought these things were meant to be sophisticated and computerized. There isn’t even a link to ones account after taking the training quizzes, they just show you the result and then they want you to email them? That’s so 2002.

BAZ001:
Vaselinecrew u don make me laugh like mad man here.
Na by force to help you?
You don vex be that ooh...
U neva understand dt u don’t ask questions in d middle of gbas gbos ?

Please does anyone know Uber inspection center in lekki?

I am searching using ubers location map and finding strange addresses with no business name

VaselineCrew:
Can someone please advice me, I can’t go online as a new bolt driver, it keeps telling me to do training which I have done about 20 times now.

I’ve already emailed help, and they responded very quickly yesterday telling me to wait, but I keep getting WhatsApp messages from bolt telling me my account is active and to go online and start a trip.

This is the message I see when I try to go online:

Anyone?

Lol, no one is asking u to change, let's just keep eyes on the goal without preaching hostility. I see folks here addressing another with disdain and to me it 's feel like, what's the difference btw the I have arrived drivers and the riders, like our ego is our only disease without a cure or what?

Yep u didn't mention me, but the essence of message is always to encode to decode and here is a public forum *smile*. Chucmoore is a good example that motivation can b passed without insults, but like u say, it's ur personality and good or bad is not really in my place to say.

Anyway: lost my mom this morning, kind of seeing the world from a whole new angle. Tempted to go drive, just to distract myself since I live alone, I don't even know what to do. So my nigga, it's really all peace from here.

Sorry for your loss, may her soul rest in perfect peace in Jesus name!!
