I used to drive for Uber, now I drive for Grabcar.
Grabcar offer than Uber. Driver's will know this. If you registered both.

Sometimes Grab no ping coming in, switch to Uber...

Seems like Grab is winning alot of shares.

If Uber pulls off from Malaysia, thats it. Grab may cut incentives because no competitors driver dont have other platform to pick, may even raise fare price to passenger cause no competition.

just my 2 cents

I did charity for an hour from 3pm aroundt Bukiit Bintang area.
Actually two of these trips are set toward my own destination (Kajang).
But the trips Uber matched were not really toward my destination de,😥

Myvi all the way.

Dont rent car. Own your car better.

You just need 2 buy more top up in the beginning and make sure maintain balance RM15. Lower then no ping and no job come out.

Grab's okay when you're not stuck in the jam but Uber takes 5% extra and charges by the time.

Grab is definitely better for part timer and also full timer.
Unless you are airport trip chaser, then you will probably need both Grab and Uber to sustain. If not just Grab is enough.

I drive full time time both...seriously grab requests are way too low in sban n nilai...uber requests in these 2 areas is overwelming...

But uber trip fares are peanuts...you will not make reasonable profits unless u hit their incentives/quests/ph.

Grab fares are reasonable n IF requests are plenty then you can make reasonable profit driving long term

But in uber after you continuosly hit their all their quests they will reduce the quest amount or increase the trip requirement and it would become less attractive thereafter.

So in summary these companies are out to only make the 20 to 25% from your trips and are not concerned with your well being , safety , retirement , family.

The moment you quit or they ban you... they are not interested in you anymore as they keep recruiting new drivers on daily basis. There are plenty of test mules for them . So if you are having a full time job never quit it for driving this full time as you will regret later. You just cannot be very long in this unless you do part time.

To save their face some drivers dont tell you what they feel deep in their hearts...

Just my 2 cents n any1 is welcomed to disagree as this is entirely from my point of view
