I think really less uber drivers now.

The "no thank you" will appear when uber know the pick up distance is unreasonable. Uber just trying its luck, hoping for newbie drivers.

Just did some test. If I select Uber-X there's only 1 driver here in Kajang area, but if you select UberFlash there's lots 9f drivers

Uberflash includes taxis if not mistaken.

Ublur staff must drive themselves regularly and pick up rider located for >10 km.... and rider only go for 1-2 km.

Then they know how it feels like.

is it consider gaming if we off the smartphone gps while queing in klia?

Lel.....if you chinese, or understand chinese, I would ask you "save your sliver lah bro".....been engaging since day 1 on this, their standard reply "thanks for your feedback, we will seriously look into it in order for us to improve further. However, during that time, you are the closest match driver during that request, and Uber aim is to provide seamless service to our riders experience, therefore, you are been notify for the ride request"

In order words, "shut up and stop complain"....which I did, I got option to choose to accept or not the request. Which any of new drivers out there, u can choose also forget about what acceptance rate.....honestly, I don't know if that even affecting your quest amount, etc, etc....been stop driving too long.

If u drive long enough, every ride request is a gamble coz u dunno the rider destination, u choose to accept, mean u choose to gamble lor.....stop complaining.

Past few days Most pings receive also long distance pick up....deswai a lot pipu complain in the social media.

At least last time no so bad.

I don't complaint for no reason.

I suspected coz lesser drivers on the road nowadays....the weekly petrol price hike can be factor too.....plus, with new MRT, all riders need is the last mile back home, from MRT to destination.

Good luck to all drivers out there

Hi there,

Is there any Uber Drivers Whatsapp group so that we can communicate among drivers about traffic jam, lousy riders, incentives etc ???

Traffic jam - since Uber drivers won't know the destination before pick-up, no point to share information.

Lousy riders - do you think you will meet the same lousy riders the other guy picked up?

Incentives - this thread doesn't exist for no reason. We can talk about incentives here.

hey anyone here driving uber xl? how is the earning? better than uber x?

Haha....thanks for your reply.

My replies to you...

Traffic Jam - not about don't know the destination. Just to check which area are jam at that time so won't camp there.

Lousy Riders - just to share only so that can give those lousy drivers a 1 star but of course riders may have same name.

Incentives - using WhatsApp is like instant instead of have to always go to Lowyat forum here.

May not only above la. Can be anything related to Uber and hailing business !!!

Well, if there is not any, maybe I create one.

Who wants to join, just PM me.

Thanks.

Previously I drove a Toyota Innova six-seater for Uber XL.

Earning is ok but the problem is not every time you get Uber XL riders.

Most of the time Uber X riders.

Daily you may get 1 or 2 UberXL riders but sometimes ZERO UberXL riders.

Depends on Luck !!!

Some more Innova fuel consumption also very high.

Now I switches to Bezza but still keep Innova in the car selection just in case still want to use the Innova car.

thanks for the info

Incentives don't change by the minute, why do you need instant information?

And, if I were a rider, and the driver keeps checking WhatsApp notification, I will give him 3 stars.

Aiyo......of course we are not suppose to do that.

Will only check when free la.

Something wrong one la this fellow.

Write an e-mail to support and change his rating then.
Or I think you can do it via the Uber app itself.

If a driver is lousy, just rate accordingly.
You are in fact giving him a chance to mirror himself, and probably get another job elsewhere.

OWNING LAR !!
My max pickup location is only 13+ km, which I have posted in this thread 1-2 months ago.
You are the new record holder LOLX... !!

And you know what I think ?
UberFlash is another bloody gimmick/tactic by Uber to "hopefully" get their old customers back.
Why'd you think the system assign extremely long pickup to drivers, if they have nearby drivers ?

Erm why? Care to share the reason why?

Share what ?
You have never tried Uber's infamous long pickup ?
They simply do not have enough drivers.
- I remember you ditched Uber as well LOLX

Even with UberFlash, do you think drivers will go back to them ?
Even if UberFlash includes taxi drivers (this I don't know), do you think those taxi drivers can accept those fare ?
