I am a new Uber driver however after 250 trips I feel it is not worth the effort of providing this service considering the following:
1. low fare
2. 25% Uber fees
3. petrol
4. increase in car mileage (need frequent servicing)
4. car wear & tear
5 man hours
6. Internet data charges
7. call charges
8. Toll for pick-up or return trips
9. Riders canceling trips when almost reach their destination.
10.Harassment from interested parties
Anyway this is my opinion. Hope to hear from others who may have similar ideas or experiences.
Q1&2 low fare & 25% Uber fees
apparently you have not put enough effort in studying their incentive plan
Q3&4 petrol, frequent servicing, car wear & tear
drive a fuel efficiency car
drive a car where you can get parts easily
chose a car with the least yearly depreciation
i think the most suitable car is Perodua Axia or Myvi,
disadvantage is :-
-can't load much luggage during airport trip
-there are “generous” riders who are “kind enough” to give you 1 star simply because you drive a Axia or Myvi
Q5 man hours
I think most job require man hours, except for those who are born with a silver spoon
Q6&7 Internet data charges & call charges
Digi new plan, RM80/month (10G data + unlimited call)
Q10 Harassment from interested parties
