Regarding Ace, CS said they want to get feedback from drivers about it. But so far haven't pass feedback form to drivers yet. (I didn't get the form, did you?)

Without Ace, I'm not going to Uber without Surge.

See how la this week... Surge good or not?

If not have to go back to Crap...

Uber has given out the feedback form to Ace drivers. You can find it in the app.

Yeah, 1.5 to 1.6 above is okay la. 2.0 above baru best.

1.2 to 1.3 still boleh la for medium distance trip... But long trip confirm still rugi if only 1.2 to 1.3.

Yeah, last Sunday Boost until 2.4x! Too bad I still busy washing my car. Only managed to snatch 1 ping at 2.2x boost. 13km trip, get like RM34 net after minus commission.

Then another nice one, Surge 1.7x if I remember correctly. 5km trip but take more than 20 minutes to complete so fare was RM21 like that. Passenger some more give me tips.

When boost 1.4x and Surge also 1.4x, Uber said we get the Surge amount because they always pay the higher amount. Hahaha.. Bullshit. If they give us the Boost, we earn more.

Yesterday midnight KL area surge until 2.0 man. But I lazy go out drive after dinner with family...

Short trip with surge I think can earn a bit. Why not man? Usually short trip will take longer time to complete, per kilometer, compared to long trip. So per km, you will earn more than long trip. That's the pro and con of Uber's fare calculation that includes time. You do long trip, you take highway, you can drive fast, so on average, per km you complete the trip faster, so the fare not so good, per km.

Grab just calculate 1.1 to 1.4 per km but fixed fare. If you Flexi you really cannot do short trip in KL. RM5 trip also can jam until 1 hour. If you HG, you need to maintain 80% AR so KL is a really dangerous place. Passenger cannot wait, cancel on you, you can end up stuck in KL 1 hour without completing any job. Then everyday you need to explain to CS about passenger cancellation. Really sien.

But long trip Grab usually better.

Uber, with Surge, is good for medium distance trip.

Anyway, my main reason for choosing Uber at the moment is not because of higher earnings, but because of less headache. Hopefully they will bring back Ace.

For me, short trip is 5-7km or less. Medium trip is 7-20km. 20km and above is long trip. But see the situation like where is the drop-off. Since IOI Mall to Pavilion still can get ping easily, I consider it as medium distance trip. Outstation trips completely no no for me.

That Uber fare RM32 I think includes surge..

But my main point for that post is sometimes Grab use ruler to calculate fare. 22km and 21 minutes if you take highway. Grab calculate 18km if you take Old Klang Road but it will take you more than 30 minutes to reach. Flexi really kena screwed.

But for your case yesterday, 43km trip, no matter how we look at it also Grab's fare is higher. At 4AM also the fare is RM63.

That's why I say, got Surge only I go out do Uber. But for this week la, see how first, whether they will bring back Ace.

Yeah too bad we can't see the destination. But still, at least we can see if it's long trip that will take more than 40 minutes. But sometimes kena those trips that take like 35 minutes or 39 minutes so we don't get any warning. Shit.

So sien le if go back to Grab. They got so many other problems.

Surge 1.2 and below I no eye see...

Last week I only drive on Sunday. This week haven't start drive yet.

Haiya.. I waiting for something then that person said don't need already. But didn't inform me earlier. Anyway, now jam like shit, a bit malas want to go out also. I feel like waiting until the jam clear a bit.

Yeah, Uber riders majority is quite ok. But for some reason, a bit harder to maintain driver rating. I think they more cerewet, like to give 4 stars.

Foreigners.. Sometimes kena those manual laborer foreigners also.. But still acceptable la.. Not as bad as the crowd on Crab...

I added this to my previous post:

Crab incentives look good on paper only. But if kena bomb non stop with pings to KL, wanna cry lo...

Ya lor. Crab always ping come in distance near, but open Waze, actual distance so far. Some more if we cancel we kena tiao.

And to maintain 80% AR, 5km above pick up also have to sapu. 3km and above pick up distance on Uber I just ignore man.

Crab drivers always laugh at Uber far pick up distance, but that day I saw somebody complain kena 11km pick up distance on Crab.

Wtf? The Grab thread just got deleted ka?

What?

The last post was probably me mentioning that S3phiroth saw the Grab Driver app code then the thread kena nuke.

It's true, but nowadays Boost so little only... 1.1 to 1.3 like that... If I knew Sunday punya Boost so cun, I would have gone out earlier.

What? S3phiroth already long time ago exposed Grab's code secrets. Now only they read ka?

Alamak.. mcb.. I thought want to catch big fare during New Year, but these pipu want to protest lagi on New Year's Eve...

http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/...f-dbkl-permits/

Haih.. Tonight pancing tak dapat big fish.. Even the popular drinking spots no surge.. People belum balik from kampong ka? So many people managed to apply one whole week leave? I thought the economy is bad, some more can ponteng kerja so many days...

Looks like no choice, have to go back to hell (Crap).
