Just now i took a grab from house to changkat.  2 minutes before arrival, driver got a ping from kl tower to klcc.  Few seconds, rider cancelled on him.  I laughed and told driver, i got banned because of that.  He panicked. Haha

Why not try uber? No incentive but still better than nothing before full implement legislation.

Let this fked up riders enjoy myteksi/grabtaxi once part timers quit.

Lol

Ironically, some say the y are charged max rate without using meter, eg. Prior to booking, range is rm15-30, but the passenger gets the highest amount charged.

Also, if got meter, then tweaked version, meter much more than estimated fare.

Lastly, the blue cab botak head if so fking annoying, suppose to be jailed like 70years, then paid 600k for 4years jail in default, now acquitted.

Our country is so screwed up.. seriously..

Just now picked up rider from Vista Bayu Villa apt in Klang, most probably Betnam or Burmese. Called her up where is she, she said she waits by the "guest house". So went inside past the guard post make one round searching for "guest house" mcm nak gila. Called up her again are you sure it is the "guest house" or guard house? Then only I saw her wandering by the guard house looking for me hahaha... It was a 10 bucks ride but she gave me tip of rm3 once drop off. Kinda comel and good looking too...😎😎😎

Incentive masuk. .see the amount also I want to cry already. Time to look for a full time job. Fed up with reduced incentive, bossy passenger who treat us like their amat, and crapcar who dun appreciate their drivers.

Btw I have 1 question, if passenger set multiple drop off location in the same trip, will it be counted 1 or 2 trips?
*
1 unfortunately.

High passenger cancellations. KL was my playground.  I live in Ampang, where else could I go?  Jam but good incentive due to the amount of short trips.  60 hours, 220 trips a week was too easy to achieve, even tho jam.  So it was like average 3.7 trips/hour. The last week of Ramadhan 2017, I did 300 trips in 75 hours.  Ever since they changed the incentive scheme to 4 trips/hour, I hardly considered taking double digit trips unless it was supper surge. Sometimes, RM8 also I ignored.  mostly RM7 and below.  But still, I never missed my 85% AR.  Of course, the high passenger cancellations contributed to the AR.  10 months driving, I completed almost 7000 trips.  Over 1000 trips cancelled by passengers.

10 months, my total incentive payout is in excess of RM40k.  Within that 10 months, I had like 30 days off, holiday, balik kampung, work outstation.  I have a fulltime job tho.  So, I'm glad, I made the best out of the 10 months.  I saw this coming.  When I first started, I also asked alot of riders which were fresh graduates to take this opportunity to build up their financial savings.  But now, things have changed.  When incentive was good, there were a lot of drivers in KL, you won't get b2b booking with 20-30 minutes waiting time.  E.g. dropping off at beach club, get b2b from pavilion, at 6.30pm on a weekday.  These days, u will get alot of this so becareful, turn off the b2b until u really really almost drop off.  The reduction in incentive and the removal of busy areas have sent false signal to alot of drivers.  They avoided KL, thinking that they can't make money out of it.  But drivers like me, without much choice, still had to drive in KL and I benefited from it.  Even if I want to run away back home to Ampang, people in Ampang still want to go to KL. Hahaha!  This is the trend,  people in Ampang go to KLCC & Pavilion.  People in Pandan & Maluri go to Berjaya Times Square.  And these are all single digit trips.  It was just too easy.   

But sadly, these days, passenger cancelled, driver also kena and and I am very sure it's more about grab trying to kick out all the heavy incentive drivers.  Instead of putting a ban on me, it could've been sweet if they told me, "thank you for your service, it's time for the new blood to take over, we cannot afford you anymore."

In your 10months of intensive jobs, have u actually tried to off the available button after pickup and noticed that it does not impact the guaranteed incentive?

Ive always wondered this.

Do recall u mentioning that u asked the trainer twice about this and they say as long as got passenger, still counted full guaranteed earnings.

I am not entirely convinced abt this till now.

Some folks here suggesting off available after pickup in kl and off back before drop off, will this work?

Thanks a bunch for info sharing, most of us wont be continuing for long grabbing btw.

You can turn it off when u have a passenger without affecting  the incentive. My incentive still same as my calculations.  But last weekend kena suspended,  incentive 650 only. whistling.gif

Haha more than 500, be wary of getting banned. Lol.

If indeed as u said, then to avoid b2b is to off once pickup.

Gs not applicable though as they disabled the option entirely.

Yes I did, but mostly after getting the 4th job and then time > 50th minute to avoid 5th job. Never have I thought that pax will affect drivers.

So didn't off between 1-2-3 jobs?

I am sure I am not alone.

Got once pick up 5 riders for myr 6 fare, 5 college student board, then fine... Mid way to destination, ask turn into housing area drop off one of them then proceed to final destination, this happen 6 months ago way before multi stop....

For 6 fare and 5 of them still multi stop.... Obviously educate them of exploiting the system....

Then drop off bang the door, of course call cs make remarks..

Next day, got call from cs said warning for suspend the account. Reason that is in no way driver are allow to educate the rider..

Then onn, will not accept any rider more than 3 ppl, and will reject any multi stop.

But now doesn't matter as not interested doing grab, if want to continue drive... choose uber

Stupid Grab!  Dunno what they think of?  Old partners have good driving experience than fresh blood but they try to get rid of them, really speechless...rclxub.gif

Their logic, to make money from fare commission and NOT pay incentives.

Old timers are savvy as they gain more experience to maximize earnings.

Hence, potong la..

With introduction of 25% comm, all the more is gainful for them to boot most if not all drivers that don't really earn for them, ie. commision earned frm driver less than incentive paid out.

Guys..another situation..if lets say mon-wed..ar cr is ok..above the recommended..then suddenly on thursday performed badly..end up below recommended value..then friday until sunday..back on track..meaning above the recommende value..hows the incentive being calculated..still blur bout this..
*
Regardless of what has happened during the course of the week, just meet the requirements as at 1159pm Sunday to be eligible for incentives.

Meaning, on the bad day u mentioned, still count towards ur weekly incentive total.

Straightforward really. Don't overthink about it.

Better worry about strategizing ur incentive earnings imho.

wanna ask that if im picking up a rider from penang island to mainland, can i charge rm7 penang bridge toll on the rider although that from island to mainland has no toll?
*
U cant since passenger was not in car when u pass the toll. That is the rule of thumb.

Just track all pending promos, differentiate them by last 4 digits of booking number.

Note that credits to credit wallet would have different ref number though.

Rule of thumb, if more than a week not sighted in either cash or credit wallet, call cs.

Promo code usually masuk to cash wallet on next business day right ?

Is there any exceptions? Because I notice the promo code "MY174WPRGRAB4" didn't masuk cash wallet.

Called cs twice , CS A say it's already credited and ask me update my apps and it will reflect or else walk in to hq ( this cs sounds like first day go to work , cb7 noob).
CS B said will be credited by next Thursday .

I think this one is what i call, pd promo, ie. Credit following week type. Pd as in post dated. Lol
