Just simply enter the eligible areas(i.e. Bangsar, Sunway) as the pick up point, then choose some ridiculously far/remote areas(i.e. Gerik, Gua Musang) for drop-off, get rejected twice then you will get free RM8 promo code from grab within 72 hours.

Even if supply and demand, i think rider should be informed first instead of sudden surge when i reached the destination. This happened to Uber only.

For example:
Trip to KL with promo code stated the fees as RM13.
When i reach KL (without jam and whatsoever), suddenly the driver charged RM37.

I am a frequent Grab & Uber rider. No matter whether there are increased of demand or what so, Uber should not suddenly surged the charge by 2.9x. I do understand that Uber rate is not fix especially if there is jam but I think using high demand, low supply as an explanation is totally ridiculous!

If the demand is high and supply is low, Uber should upfront increase the rate from RM13 to perhaps RM15-18...very unethical to suddenly charge more when the rider reached the destination.
*
The promo code prompt more non-frequent user to use Uber and it churn up higher demand, that's where the surge come.

Not related to promo but just an opinion to GRAB latest update for Android. The latest update is the worst. They won't allow us to save promo codes and make us manually enter code at any request. So inconvenient. Guess they are controlling riders who uses promo codes anyway.

bro, there have no point to share here but get nth from anyone . and get this kind of feedback.
no point to sharing for those "problem" people.

Problematic = No

Frequent user = No

I understand why i did not receive this promo code not because of attitude issue, and this is for selected customer which i understand Grab trying to reward loyal and frequent customer.

Am i jealous? No

Am i happy? Yes, because driver get to earn more

The thing is.. I am a more frequent user of Grab than my friends yet they received the code and I didn't. That's what makes me unhappy with Grab.

Last time they offer the "RM0 for rides RM7 and below" promo and they extended it, only to selected users. Those "selected users" are those who have not activated Grabpay, so they're using that as a method to attract them to use Grabpay.

I have been one of the earliest and faithful adopters of Grabpay yet I did not receive any added gifts from Grab.

Back to this Merdeka promo, I've been using Grab much more than my friends (I am almost a Platinum member, but just couldn't reach it by just a few hundred points before the period was refreshed)

My friends who are hardly Silver members received the promo while I didn't. Maybe because I always gave feedback and complaints to Grab?

To add salt to the wound, Grab increased their price quite dramatically recently.

Previously a ride from my hostel to college was RM5, then increased to RM6 with the new fare structure, then now it's RM7
Uber is offering it at RM4+.

They removed most of Grabshare which has in the past eased my student financial woes whenever I need to travel alone, like going to the airport via Putrajaya.
(RM28 with Grabshare, RM37 with Grab, but now RM45 after price hike)
*
For the promo code of selected customer, i have no comment on that.

Grab has been subsidized driver a lot in the past and trying to find way to find profit from it, not surprise for me for the price hike and expected they will try to profit out from it. They are not Non-Profit organization, they are corporate where profit matters and has few hundred staff to feed. Base fare has increase from RM1 to RM2, peak hour per km is RM1.4 while non-peak is RM1.1, customer keep in the dark because Grab secretly adjust the fare.

Uber is cheap, this one i agree on non-peak hour, but with that cheap fare how many driver on the road? it is very hard unless u stay in city or CBD. During my time as students 10 years ago, there is only Taxi or bus, if budget constraint, i would willing to wait for bus. Taxi fare during that time is higher than Grab rate now. I consider students now really fortunate with Grab/Uber existence and so much of promo code to ease your travel budget.

Grabshare has limited to area selected only, 1am-6am no Grabshare available. https://www.grab.com/my/blog/introducing-grabshare-zone/

To avoid giving non-paying customer free rides ?
The more non-paying customer in your database, the more you lose.
Finally Uber figured this out.

Grab also did that, they have database of how much u contribute to them, it seems both of them implement at the same time laugh.gif

QUOTE(j45on @ Sep 13 2017, 10:08 AM)
I think the only reason you do not want to apply the promo code is when the ride costs less than the coupon. In that case, for the next promo, you will get a coupon with a lower value so it does not go to waste. This is why different people get different amount for promo, the coupon is meant to subsidize your ride, not suppose to make it free. Different people have different price point to pay for a ride, and something it's just that difference of RM5 or RM10 to make them take their first ride. After that, hopefully it becomes second to nature to think of Grab or Uber when needing a transport.

I agree that recently Uber has been losing a lot of drivers, causing the fares to shoot up and becomes more expensive than Grab. What this means is that Grab is probably playing the games right to capture the driver's heart rather than winning the passenger's. However, what is going to happen is that, Grab driver will find themselves earning less because there's now more Grab drivers on the road, so the winner is Grab and their passengers. The drivers will soon realize this and switches back to Uber. If Grab wish to continue retaining their driver,s they are going to have to consider subsidizing the drivers too, so Grab might end up losing double of triple their cash! The trick is for Uber and Grab to find the sweet spot, where they will spend enough to retain the optimum amount possible of drivers and passengers while keeping revenue as high as possible. I am sure they have the formula for it and working towards automating it. The battle continues, and whats more important is that I know what I want and I am getting the best bang for the buck from these two companies at the end of the day

U are wrong, Grab pricing is higher than Uber nowadays. And Grab driver is getting lesser comparing to few months ago, peak hour wait is much longer than before.

Mind to share location where you experience long wait and high fare? This two usually correlates with each other highly. Even for Uber. But depends on location and time of day

Some of us are driver, normally peak hour and KL city area has longer waiting time.

Now, I understand this thread is for Grab/Uber promo codes...so why are some of you not posting stuff that is relevant?

Why whine about how it's unfair that Uber OR Grab is not giving you any more promo codes when their service is already DAMNED cheap, compared to the our red-and-white regulars?!?

Please man up, drivers need to earn their share too (and FYI, Uber drivers earn SOLELY from your fare, amid a 25% commission deduction back to Uber), and don't think about yourselves only.  bangwall.gif

If it's not easy for them, why should it be EASY for you? Just be grateful as and when promo codes come? But don't treat it as an entitlement right, cuz it's not...it's a privilege!  doh.gif

Gladly there is still have u which understand the situation well. It seems like a lot of customer taking promo code as granted, but not as bonus.

Now with the new Grab promo code, it is for selected customers with filter by contribution, habit and attitude. If don't have then go complain to Grab laugh.gif

Last night around 10pm a 4 mins ride (1km) cost me RM10 after applying GRABTNG code, with reason of high demand. Grab has became a hungry crocodile lately.

A metered taxi won't cost that much since the fare is regulated (for 1km distance, before 12am).

It is time for relevant authorities come to the ground and work to regulate the private e-hailing service here.
*
Save your breath, for your information SPAD doesn't regulate e-hailing fare or commission. Basically it is demand vs supply mechanism. Everyone else like u also order Grab like u, if it doesn't match sure will goes up to attract driver.

There is 2nd option which is Uber, and also option under "Grab Taxi" isn't it?
