Smart driver will opt in Grab only and get 20% commission.
Doing both at 25% commission worth it?

sukak diorang lah......they just wanna kill time, at same time talk to some one, or explore new places.  laugh.gif

Making money is secondary for them, the fare just like their lunch cost to them...

For you guys driving full time, or for intention of making some money, with almost every week petrol price increase, good luck  sweat.gif Double pity for those purposely bought new car just for it  sweat.gif  sweat.gif

Maybe new cars not yet feel it yet, after few years, daily almost 300-400km travel, your car definitely need major overhaul, another big chunk of money out, or usual car life cycle, if properly maintained, can last easily 5-7 years or 200k-250k km, before major overhaul required, but, driving Uber/ Grab, after 2-3 years your car feel similar to 5-7 years car jor.....then, u forced to either do major overhaul, and constant repair and maintainance, or forced sell it off coz every month repair cost also almost like new instalment.  cry.gif

wait. how to do this in uber. i know grab has this in the notes section. but uber?

No option to do that in Uber. After a driver accepted the job request, then only you are able to send the driver message or additional note.

later when uber pool came into picture, driver earning will be even higher than now. They think their current fare is on the high side.

Uber Pool will be like Grab Share.
Drivers will be the one suffering.

for me, no AR requirement, I will choose to accept those less than 6KM. Unlike crapcar, even for flexi, need to maintain 30% AR

Also, rider quality is better, and more civilized ppl compared to crapcar. One more, there's a cancellation fee for those no show rider or cancel when about to arrive.
*
Fare is always higher on Grab. the longer the distance, the wider the gap between Grab vs Uber.
Commenting as a driver perspective. Competition also higher of course.

Anyone with driving exp in Seremban alone only? If we to do full time, would we get around 3to4k per month the least?

Also, any incentives or tips and tricks for Seremban area?

Thank you sifus

1. Drive into Klang Valley. Yes, as full timer, it is worth the journey. Do you know drivers from Melaka also drive to Klang Valley to earn a better living?
2. Do Grab. Full timer you just follow Grab time table and eat the incentive.

Most drivers doing Grab now instead of Uber peanut money.
Just open the passengers apps to compare the amount of drivers in the area.

That SD is abused by those drivers who under ACE incentive, let say they set target at UM and keep playing around that area to get higher amount of short trips.

Uber discover that and turn off SD function to prevent abuse, indirectly u all buta buta kena lor.

Nowadays i realize on peak hour without surge, Uber is cheaper than Grab, while non-peak hour, Uber is more expensive than Grab after the price revision.
*
Uber is still cheaper for long distance trip.
Short distance will depends. Open both apps and compare but for long distance, no point checking on Grab, Uber will be cheaper.

There is actually a 3rd type of rider.
Those that doesn't need a ride, but requested a ride because it's free or less than rm3.
The 2 types you have mentioned actually needs a ride to go somewhere.

Rider which uses Uber/Grab only when got promo free rides!
If not will rather walk 1km away.

What they should do is implement ACE incentive.Then these 1-2km rides will suddenly become most desirable trips
*
Coz they are losing money. That's the reason why they took away incentive and replaced with boost/quests.
ACE on trial for selected drivers only end of last year. But i think they calculated and no untung.
So probably scrap off that plan already.
