LMAOOO 4.8 and boast about it? You are seriously pathetic.

Not interested to know anything about you la dude

Don't wanna waste anymore time on you also man.

And you are still wasting time posting.

Continue to be your "sei gao" for Uber lar.
Otherwise you will have to eat bones for dinner tonight.

What's been going on? Why the hostile retaliation?

If you've stopped driving for Uber due to your own personal reasons..you may keep it to yourself

There are still people like us that still willing to drive..be it full time or part time..

You don't know everyone's story..and neither does everyone knows about yours..so don't go lashing out at everyone and name calling

Just put it this way..if you're employed..wouldn't that make you someone-elses' lap dog? Unless you're working for your own..then good for you

I am only lashing out at that particular "sei gao".

Whatever my previous comments about Uber has nothing to do with him.
But because he is so loyal to his master, he felt offended and went offensive with name calling.

How can one not get offended when you read back on your earlier comments, just because you stopped driving d, you went around making comments that IMPLIED that whoever still drives for Uber is some sohai who is getting ripped off by Uber, etc.

Show some empathy, not everyone has enough on their plate every month. If people can go out and make that little extra, it's his choice. You don't need Uber now, that's good.

Don't make it sound like a FACT that Uber is like purposely trying to rip you off and that if you don't game the system, can't make money. I can show you a tonne of statements showing otherwise, but then other people will say I am doing it for recruitment.

First of all everyone of us need to respect people sacrifice their own hardwork and time to earn a living. Everyone has their own preference and choice which i cannot override.

A person might be happy doing cleaning and earning RM1k out from it, did u mock him and criticize ppl stupid or slave for his boss? As long he did not do illegal to earn living, please learn to respect him. After all he might think RM1k is enough for his living and stress-free because as long he complete his job, his boss will not make noise.

Without any doubt Uber income is lesser, but the quality of customer is better than Grab in all sense. The apps has function to reduce the driver frustration on customer no show, late etc.

Not everyone driving for Uber is sohai, I don't mean this.
But if you listen and follow everything that Uber tells you, then you judge for yourself.
I admit I used to be a sohai also, accepting every trip and 0 cancellation.

At the end of the day, less and lesser income from when I first started.
And further new additions make things from bad to worst.

The buttons available in the app means that I can utilize everyone of it.
There is no rule which states that you must accept every trip and not cancelling any.
This is not gaming IMO.

I am just showing some ways so that the drivers here are not so ripped off by Uber.

Go check who is the one being aggressive, who is the one starting to use "sei gao".
This does not have to be hostile, unless someone initiates it first

Suen la you, you are not first day here, everyone knows who you are and how you work, no need explain so much la.

Your name is famous here but for all the wrong reasons only.

The problem is, complained complained complained but still driven Uber for 1 year as you said. I dunno what to call you really lol.

Damn wasted another 2 mins.

Peace out.

Well I can tell you I follow everything that Uber says, 100% AR, 0 cancellation and I have been doing that for the past 1.5 year, unless it's a once in a blue moon situation. Almost everyone here knows my Uber income, so can you say it's the wrong way?

Fyi, cancellation rate there's a threshold. Whether they suspend your account or not it's another matter. Last time if your cancellation rate goes above x% and AR falls below X%, you won't get your incentives.

You know how many complaints I hear on a daily basis from riders saying why nowadays all the driver call me ask where am I going, why all cancel on me, etc ? This gives the industry a bad name, and effectively it affects other drivers when the riders decide to give up on Uber, since it's becoming like a taxi already.

My approach on Uber is very simple. If I am online, I will take every ride. Where rider brings me, I will go. Good trips, bad trips, it will average out. The rider is my priority. Anything I am not happy with Uber i will feedback to them. I shouldn't penalize the rider just cause I am not happy with Uber, it's not their fault.

That's like you go to a restaurant, order a dish, the chef simply cook for you (or refuses to cook for you), cause he said his boss hasn't paid his salary, or his boss took away his handphone allowance. How would you feel as the customer?

If the restaurant states the closing hour is 10pm, 9:55pm you walk in order a Chinese tea ice also they should layan you. Not ask you first what you going order before they decide whether to let you in. Isn't this what the service industry is about?

We may be lap dogs to make a living, but at least should have some professional pride.

Let's call a spade a spade.

Calling rider to ask for destination IS gaming.

Don't believe me?

Try and adopt this approach and hit the morning quest. Call and ask first before you pick up and only go if it's a short trip so you can finish the X amount of trips within that 3 hours.

See if they will pay you the incentive or if they will suspend you?

If they want you to know that destination, Uber would have integrated that into the system. If you want to know destination before picking, just do Grab la. You can't have the best of both world and expect the world to revolve around you.

Exactly. Who are we to determine whether something is worth it or not for another person and then go generalise it as being fool or SLAVE as I always see here.

If I have a tank of petrol, and my TnG has money inside, but I have no money for lunch and dinner. You offer me RM30 to send you to airport also I will do.

Value is different to each individual according to needs, to go around calling other people slave and all is just plain condescending.

And for all of you who likes to dissect the cost of Ubering until it's like worst than MBPJ sweeping floor, dissect this and let me know.

My monthly gross income from Uber is on the average 8500. Take this as a fact, I have shown enough statements here to not having to post it again.

My petrol cost is 20%. Purely for Uber.

My car installment is 470. I purposely bought an Axia for Uber.

I service car once a month. RM250.

I give you the pleasure of dissecting it till it means something. Shoot.

What else?

This post has been edited by ieian81: Jul 25 2017, 02:39 PM

This 8500 is based on 60 hrs driving per week, 240 hrs per month?

or this figure is higher after Uber giving out quest etc?

If not mistaken i saw Uber driver screenshot quest like Monday-Thursday XX trip RMXX, Peak hour 5-9am 5-8pm xx trips RMXX.

On average about 70-75 online hours per week. I disclaim again first, nobody said it's easy job ya.

Inclusive of the quest. The week day 54 and weekend 39 almost 100% hit. The daily ones not always, especially the 3 hours one, never hit before.

Ive been camping at damansara damai for an hour. Still no request. Haha

My 3rd day today. For today, 7 trips done and received rm64, 5hours 30minutes online. Is that okay? Average or below average. Just asking. Since im a noob

I will online 7-8 hours daily. Not targetting 8k per month. Just 1-2k is enough for me.

One hour no request? That's bad. Maybe you should go to Sri Damansara.

7 trips and rm64 for more than 5 hours of online time is on the lower side. But demands should go up after 4pm.

this morning started in subang jaya for 2 hours, from 10 -12pm and only 2 trips done and 1 cancelled trip. .... frustrated and just went offline and went back home.
picked up the 1st rider from ss15 to puchong tesco. after dropping the rider and did rounding around wawasan and kenari but not a single ping came in. got frustrated and drove to pj ss3, ss4 and kelana jaya... also no request. so drove back to subang and about to reach home a request came in to pick rider at ss15 international school... but rider no show. then continued to head home and almost home another ping request came in to pick rider at ss18 and sent to ss19. ngam ngam 2 hours online time after completing the 2nd trip.
not sure if the ride request is getting lesser nowadays or i was having bad luck.... or maybe my approach was wrong as i didn't wait at the drop off location.

Per hour online RM20 is fair. RM25 is good. RM30 is very good.

Do you guys face Waze hanging issue?
To me, this happens very often after Uber trying to pushing for its built-in gps function.

I use Asus phone.
