Included, but sometimes they missed out. Then, u need to claim back from uber. Once u signed up, they will give u training.

Now each referral earn how much ah?

Last time was 250

Maybe the distance he travelled to pick u up is further and longer than the distance of your ride, so, technically, he rugi, although not fault of you, but Uber

New year eve countdown, between 11:30 to 2:30am, location dataran merdeka, klcc, Changkat Bukit Bintang area.

That's the time where surge till 4.7x mar.....but I didn't go chase it lah....

I send one rider at 10:30pm, 7km only to klcc, also took 1 hour 20 min. No surge, but that time still not fixed fare, so at least stuck in jam, use all longer and small road (with rider permission lah) also got Rm20+

No lah, once in very abnormal situation, as mentioned above. But if new year eve countdown, then, confirm lor.

Your second question, no comment

Well said bro

Let me add in something if you don't mind....driving Uber is like having your own business, sometime you make lost, sometime you gain. You need to put in effort, hardwork to earn. You stop driving, mean you stop earning. Easy as that....

Therefore, you cannot compare being employee versus being a Uber driver. Employee, you can call in sick, you can take leave, and your salary still will be paid end of month (assume you don't do anything illegal that warrant you get sack). Then, being an employee, your income is fixed (unless you sales or commission based lah, then, different story, it again depends how hard u chase for sales). You work 14 hours a day, or min 8 hours, or even 20 hours, your salary at end of month still same (unless you being paid OT, that different story altogether)

So, end of day, you got to decide whether it is worthwhile to drive Uber or Grab or not.....don't listen to all bullshit, easy money, can earn a lot, etc....if so good earning, whole KL or Malaysia will be flooded with Uber or Grab driver jor....who want to slog it out in office, or do other things? How difficult driving a car around??? And being paid for it? This job practical no pressure, all you need to do is just pick up the riders from the requested pickup location to their requested destination location. At most, maybe sometime you will encounter some nasty riders, that's it, but, even if you employee, you sometime encounter difficult colleague also right?

For those who intend to drive, go ahead, don't listen or keep reading here, you ask 1000 ppl here, you will get 1000 different answer. You got to experience it yourself to determine ith is worthwhile or not. Everyone have their own calculation and view. What I can say is that few things you need to consider

1. how committed you are, i.e. how many hours you can drive per day, and bear in mind, you are human, not robot, you get tired and fatigue, then, mistake bound to happen, higher risk of accident.
2. the cost associated with it, not only petrol, but, long term wear and tear of your car. Just imagine you car now is "unlabelled" taxi. Definitely, the mileage clocked will be higher than average, which mean lower down your car resale value later, and accelerate the wear and tear
3. Main purpose of driving. Earning extra income? Better don't drive, as said earlier, it not certain, sometime, on bad day, you don't earn much, you get stressed out (especially if you have car instalment to pay, commitement to meet, etc)

So, after you tried driving, you decide it is worthwhile for long term or not......or even short term....I had done mine...of course, you can't also just decide by driving for 1 day, or 2 days....

Then, you decide......to bro ieian81, you take care yourself.....putting 10-14 hours everyday 7 days a week in long term is quite tiring.....

Can, stop driving lor

Let me help u calculate
Base fare: RM0.95
56 min, per min RM0.25 = RM14
40km, per km RM0.60 = RM24
Total gross fare = RM0.95+RM14+RM24
= RM38.95

Less your Uber fee rate (25%) = RM9.74

Your income = RM38.95 - RM9.74 = RM29.21

So, consider overpaid u RM0.19

Bro, 0.95/km was way long time lor.....if not mistaken before Feb/ Mar 2016 time.....

Eh, since u collect RM65 from customer, the extra mana pergi? Pocket as tips ah? Better senyap senyap lor......

Lucky rider pay u cash, if pay via credit card, abis rugi u

Eh, sorry, sorry.....didn't read properly

Mean, Uber pay u "fairly" but charge customer "unfairly"

Really don't know how customer being charged one, even I open rider Uber apps, no show how the fair derived one, just one lump sum, if agree, click request.

Yup, I got to agree with you.....I just check my last few trip, I been overcharged too (as rider), writing to Uber for refund. I would rather pay this to the driver, then, they pocket themselves.

I suspected the differences, Uber go pool it up, then, use it for the new incentives, i.e. complete how many trip, guaranteed xxx amount, of course after they take another cut from there lah

Yes, conlanfirm YES!

In fact, I am writing to Uber, using their own methology and calculation
RM0.95 min fare
RM0.60 per km
RM0.25 per min

Then, from receipt, got state how many km and how many min you took

Multiply that, the number higher than what I calculated.

Again, their CS team pusing pusing with standard reply, but, still unable to answer my question.

I am not going to let this go easily, although amount not large, I can forego it, but, principally it CHEATING!!!! I rather pay this as tips to drivers who provide me safe and efficient service (on top of usual 5 star rating and some comments to cheer them up)

In summary, Uber is really unethical company, to the drivers, to the riders......I used to be fan of Uber as riders, due to their better quality drivers, but, then, with their unethical practice, sorry to all drivers....nowadays, everytime I need a ride, I will click both apps, see which one cheaper

Point noted, mean next time, must take ride during rush hours?

Seriously, wonder will there any driver around or not during that time

And, worst still, if accident happen, insurance won't cover, as it is illegal.

Sometimes, you guys need to weight in between the star rating versus safety

should be quite a demand, as quite huge students population there, but, mainly all short trip. Of cource once a while, you might get lucky go to Serdang, or even KL and PJ

Destination trip mean the trip you set towards your final destination, say example, you want go go back home, but, don't want go back empty handed. So, you set destination trip, the apps will try to match those trips closest to your destination trip. So, typically these trip is not counted for promotion, etc. Reason, you set the destination, thus, limiting the availbility of drivers on the road, as the system cannot match u with riders closest to you if their destination is not align to your destination.

Upfront mean no matters how bad the traffic is, you will be paid fixed, but, not true if you are rider, you will be charge either upfront fare or distance + time, whichever higher. You would not know the fare if you driver, but, you would know if you rider. Reason because as driver you would not know where the rider want to go until you start the trip aka rider enter your car.

It useful when you want to off line soon, and rather than straight off line driving towards your destination empty car, the system will try to match you with any riders similar destination route. Of course, the accuracy is questionable.

Last time, there is 3 option to choose, the least lenient one, which is useless, the defaulted middle one, which somehow will still match u with any riders within 5km radius along your route destination, read this carefully 5km radious, which not necessary 5km travelling route, example can be just road accross, but, you need to make 10km detour and last is the most accurate one, which 99% you would not get any match

If you have not calculate it before, I suggest you try calculate, and see the results......sometimes, you cannot just take everything written by Uber as face value, as much as I hate to mentioned it, there is too much negative publicity about Uber lately...

Of course Uber CS will never admit it, but, I won't say I am expert deailing with them, but, I would say, 100% of the case I brought up with them about their inaccurate fare pricing, the first few (at least 3 or more) email/ comment they will insist they are right, even I had given them all evidence and proof, and after continuous writing to them, only they will adjust back to what I expected. Sometimes, it is not so much about the money, it more about transparency and principal, which I seriously doubt Uber had

Will stop here, else, I will be labelled as anti Uber or pro Grab.

Ban rider, who pay for the Uber fee wor? U ah? They won't ban rider one lah unless the rider is cheating

Even if ban, rider can just create new account with another phone number

Apasal? Cerita sikit....
