that is why nowadays I don't take trips that will take more then 10 mins to reach. too many times Kena like u b4, Rider say okay to wait halfway changed their minds... then you are still stuck in jam.

if grab want to retain drivers sooner or later they gonna have to introduce cancellation charge like Uber....Uber if Rider cancel after 5 mins of job been accepted they will Kena 5 ringgit penalty also. I think Didi in China also similar system. I heard that even have daily Incentive payout and bank in within 1hr...

I couldn't agree more. I have to start having a eta time limit b4 taking any trips from now on.

I really hope Grab will seriously look into introducing a rider cancellation penalty so that it is fairer to us drivers who have to waste petrol n time to get to them.

When I was in Taipei a few weeks ago I met an Uber driver (35yo) who was an ex Senior IT Engineer. According to him he quit his well-paid IT Engineering job to be a full-time Uber driver because he can 'earn more' plus his working hours as an Uber driver r shorter.
Just imagine the same scenario becoming true here.

Your rider filed a report because u didnt press 'complete' immediately. I am pretty sure that your rider is, or was a driver too.

Deary me..if they responded due to complaint being made by riders,please grab at least check thoroughly as common sense should prevail.As a flexi 25% driver,what would i gain by purposely doing that? Beggars believe.

Out of curiousity i called cs to find out the reason.The first call wasnt convincing so i called the 2nd time and spoke with different cs.Unsurprisingly both gave different answer.So decided to call in the 3rd time and a different dude gave a different answer from the previous cs.They dont really have a clue, do they? I dont blame them but in any other customer service sector,u would not last long in business with this kind of inconsistency.

Yup lately allot of drivers told me they've now installed uber as an alternative even bangla also all got Uber on their phones.

If Uber willing to bend their rules and make jobs more transparent like grab, I'll jump ship in a heartbeat
*
Uber drivers has been saying the fare for uber is much lower than grab.However im sure more driver wud jump ship if they become like u said more transparent.

Most riders prefers grab bcos of the fixed fare,promo and they could take their own sweet time bcos theres no cancellation fee on them.Hell they cud even book a ride while shitting or taking shower and ask for the driver to wait(im talking to u mapren).

Alot of drivers quit. Riders all complain took longer to get grab since November.
Grab took drivers for granted and treat riders like King but the truth is without drivers riders won't exist.
Happy minions = happy company = ๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ’ฐ
But instead grab decides to become Macau company, scam here, scam there, rig here, rig there. Give insentives also not sincere, sudah bagi lagi mau ambil balik sikit damn cb style.
True Macau ahbeng.

Kasi incentive also mau potong 20%, just want to make it look good, should have just give us a nett figure . Give big amount with false hope.

Guys I haven't driven since March but am gonna start again tmr. Read up on incentives etc, but the thing is, I'm an ambassador, but I see texts on the flexi incentive and stuff. Including in my tab for incentives. Is this because I haven't driven to 80% AR and stuff (0 trips in 6months), or... You can only earn either flexi or hourly, depending on AR and requirements? I'm alr an ambassador so..

The funny thing is in their statements, incentives show as net figure. But fares gross. I cannot brain why they do like this?

On the other hand, recently all those negative feedback and wayne chow case, they take driver feedback more seriously.

Let me insert a missing word for your sentense: pretend. They pretend to take driver feedback more seriously. Still, no real action will be taken or else you will heard a lot of riders put their story on internet because of the ban.

The only action they do extra now is inform you that an action has been taken. (What action? Their action is put a remarklah). Period.

And nobody will read the remark.

Fuck. I doubt they even put in a real remark.

Probably in their system they just write, "Remark."

There is Ambassador (20% comm to Grab) and Associate (25%).

Both can opt for Hourly Guarantee incentive or Flexi where there can be ad hoc incentive.

Seriously a lot has quit or suspended, brickfield has been short of driver for the past 2 weeks and i keep kena when in Bangsar doh.gif

I have been saying this ever since they launch campaign for referral, end up the demand still there and driver cannot keep up with those demand.

On the other hand, recently all those negative feedback and wayne chow case, they take driver feedback more seriously. It is just too late Grab, your customer is screwing driver left right with those shitty attitude and u still retain them for what. U have been spoiling them all the while. They should learn at how Uber balancing both driver and rider, find a balance to implement a system.
Possible, now they change the ping system, nearest driver doesn't 100% get it, they count by radius and randomly assign.

Let say there is 3 driver in 500-1km radius, they won't give to Ali which is nearby (100m) there, instead they will assign to Ah Kao which is 500-800m away. Mind u this is map radius and not route calculation.

They shoot their own feet with this new system, good luck to them, more driver would try to avoid at peak hours or switch to flexi. Rider on the other hand would really really hard to get ride and some switch to Uber. And all these sohai go Uber and cincai cancel after 5mins, Uber happily earn their RM5 cancellation fee.
*

One arab guy told me last week that he book Uber and driver did not show up for 1 hour. He can see on screen the driver is moving around within 5 km radius. He call the uber driver but no answer. Then he book grab and I took the job. He dont want to cancel coz of the cancellation fee. This type of driver ruining the uber image... I do agree if grab impose the cancellation fee and destination set features... looking fwrd to this and many more positive improvement.
