The cost of deploying all these drones ?
You bet they will invest in this, when they still have kuli-drivers to squeeze on.
Right now, their cost is close to 0 everytime a new driver signs up - car, petrol, toll all on driver.

They have the capability yeah of course.
But will they fork out the money to buy these cars ?

Right now, they don't even own any car/fleet.
Possibility is yes, but the feasibility of it ?

They do not have to fork out money...getting partnership and getting these autonomous carmaker to invest and roll out these cars...feasible or not feasible, we can't tell as of now..but do not rule out anything yet...autonomous car could replace taxi in the near future...

I also never registered as Grab Ambassador, never give up my Uber account.
I just do Flexi all the way.
Well, deep inside me - I still hope that Uber will improve.

Maybe fat hope LOLX...

Crapcar took advantages on us by revising commission to higher i.e. 25% if we are not "loyal" to them.

I am not ruling out the possibility of it.
I am also not ruling out the possibility of flying cars in the future.

But this probably won't happen in the next 5 yrs or so.
By that time, who knows where will Uber be ?
Maybe in 5 yrs time, the biggest organization might be some China-based company.
Who knows ?

I am "loyal" biggrin.gif
I drive 1 platform at a time.
Used to be Uber only, and now Grab only.
Just that I am a lazy Grab driver nowadays.

Yes nobody knows...in the meantime just enjoy whatever incentives both platform has to offer now...but it may not last long...it is a matter of time before incentives or daily quest are gone....

Am trying to use another phone, with different number, for Uber. Uber is supposed to send a code to me for verification, but I never received it.

What should I do?

there were already mentions this way not work long, maybe just not your turn yet only

1) not giving uber log in password, grab call u, no pickup call, suspend u first

2) data sharing
- uber register driver list with SPAD, can get name list from SPAD. same among them who wanna get who's list.
- some data selling practise

I guess too many badass drivers like me  laugh.gif swipe arrived +/- 5 min before actual arrival, then, once reach, don't see rider, sms no reply, straight click "rider no show"....then, wait little further, for request again.

Still remember the apps ask me "Are you sure you arrived pick up location?" when the gps signal detect I have not reach yet  laugh.gif I insist swipe yes...even though got dunno what fine print say u will get suspended lah, etc......never happen also until I decide to self-suspend  laugh.gif

Usually if rider managed to dispute the cancellation fees, uber will refund back rm5. But uber will not take back that rm5 paid to driver. In this case, uber rugi

This is true, when a dispute occurs - Uber will compensate.

I doubt so. Ever since Uber self kill themselves by taking away guaranteed incentive, I don't think any drivers moving the other way round which is from Grab to Uber. Unless if they got removed from Grab, then no choice, only left Uber can drive.

short terms - uber should consult their own company legal team, pretty sure that what crapcar is doing there, i.e., driver declare their loyalty to crapcar and stop driving uber, has contradicted some relevant law....meet up their competitor in court. Of course, ublur may not win the case and it is depends on how they argue the case in the court.

Tak kan crapcar keep luring their drivers away....and ublur rely on recruiting the new drivers to replace the existing drivers + banned former crapcar drivers to pick up their customer.


longer terms - ublur need to come out with better driver retention strategies in particular the current pricing structure.
