hi guys, need help. I only started driving uber for a week more or less. the only problem is I can't put my debit card info in the driver app. i tried put in my maybank debit card, but it says fraudulent_credit_card. i tried my cimb card, it's the same. can anybody help me on this?

that's for bank account details. not credit/debit card details. i want to enter my credit/debit card details.

I thought I'm the only one who received the email because I havent enter my card details.

so this afternoon, while driving to PJ, I decided to stop by at the PSC and ask them about this. the guy said that no need to put in card details if I already entered my bank details. then why did uber sent the email?

the other day, a rider complained to me as well. he said i'm his 3rd driver who finally reached to him. the others all cancelled. now I know why..

I don't know. the guy didn't mentioned it. his trip worth more than 0.99 anyway so too bad to the other drivers.

an advice from a newbie to another newbie, don't compare your earnings with the others. you, yourself, should set your own target or limit to what you can earn or what you must earn.

every morning, I aim to earn at least RM30 to earn back my fuel cost and RM100 as my minimum daily target as it was my previous job daily pay. if I can achieve both target, I'm happy already.

Just when everywhere in KL had a surge 1.8x and above, suddenly got motor bang me from behind. My mistake for not noticing the exact turn. Haihh

need confirmation, if driver cancelled a trip, the rider won't be charged right? I got a rider today, she was charged extra rm5. she asked why, i told her that she probably cancelled a trip previously. she said it was the driver who cancelled it.

ah.. I forgot about that. but then, on her app, it said her fare was only RM0.99 and she insisted to pay only RM 0.99. so I only accept RM1 as her fare.

if you wanna have a break after a trip, go offline first or set stop new request while on a trip so that there won't be any ping later.

didn't ask you to off your phone la tap on the left side of the app, you'll see your trip details. below that, there's an option stop new request. use that. it's on the youtube tutorial video. watch it again.

made the best decision so far today. I decided to ditch KL at lunch hour and go to wangsa maju area instead. at least I didn't have to go far far away to pick up a rider or face the uber reassign to nearest rider problem. plus, the surge was quite high up til 2.1x.

after 3 weeks of driving and 2 weeks with boost, now I know what's the difference between surge and boost lol

Got annoyed with this one rider. I arrived at her location, I can see that she's playing with her phone but I wasn't sure it was her. I turned around my car, and saw her approaching my car. So ok la, pick her up. Greet each other and I drove to her destination which was The Curve. I picked her up from Bandar Sunway so, logically, I took the LDP to get to The Curve. Too bad, it started raining and the traffic is building up. My waze already suggested another route, was about to ask her whether I should take thr route but she was too occupied with her phone, talking to her god knows who. So I said wth just go with LDP la since the suggested route was a bit further than the current route. I don't want her to be charged more than she probably wanted. Then, she finally noticed that it took too long to reach the Curve with the traffic and she started making noise about it. She started accusing me that I took that route because I want her to get extra charge because of the traffic. I was like wth you were on the phone the whole time and now you're making noise. When we finally arrived at the curve, i just apologize to her for the traffic. Good thing she said it's okay, it's not my fault.

Oh man.

Luckily, just after her trip, I accepted another trip from Mutiara Damansara to Country Homes Rawang. With surge at that time, managed to earn RM50 from the trip.

/End of rant

same here. I drove around wangsa maju and setapak area for 30 minutes. only got 1 ping at sri rampai. luckily yesterday and today got klia trip. or else probably only get around RM100 a day.

a noob's advice: don't stay at 1 part of town more than 2 hours. if you happened to be stuck there for more than 2 hours driving riders around, just go offline, move to the nearest busy town. Shah Alam is a dead town. other than uitm and unisel students going back and forth from their house to campus, not much places that they want to go. after 2 hours or whatever your threshold is and you still couldn't find a rider who want to do a long trip, go offline, move to subang jaya or klang.

so far, I am lucky enough to get 2 or 3 short trips and then 1 trip that move to other town. then I get another 2 or 3 short trips before move to another town with another rider. mind you, I start my day sometimes at 10 am. on my best day, before 2 pm, I would have reach RM100 mark. yesterday was the worst so far since the promo was over. only managed to reach RM100 after 5 pm.

Just checked. There's no boost. Lolwut

just familiar yourself with KL road first. I grew up in KL suburbs, only after driving uber I realized that KL is such a small city only. once you've familiar with the road, you can go anywhere you like. why waste time to go back to bangi? the time you've wasted could be used to drive around KL and learn about all the roads.

oh man. for mid valley, I still can't get the hang of it. the entrances is part of the problem. the exit, where you need to go out to find your way out of midvalley is also another problem lol

Anybody knows the reason why uber gave back to me the uber fee? Weird.

lol compliment for what? i noticed it because I remember from monday my cash collected was more than my earning so supposed to have negative bank deposit. and then yesterday morning I realized the bank deposit became positive just after 1 trip. then I saw that uber fee thing.
