Has ublur's driver-assignment algorithm gone haywire? I keep getting pings from riders who were more than 10km away.

I was in surge zone. I am sure there were nearer riders...

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.

Most important thing now is to fix the bloody low fare.
Petrol is so expensive now, but the fare remains the same.
And upfront fare is too fcked up for drivers.

If the fare is not adjusted to +50% of what it is now, totally not worth to drive at all.
Well, it's my opinion only.

Grab fare has already increased, but Uber fare still remain the same.

Please continue doing what you are doing now Uber.
Waiting to see you on your way out soon thanks.

Uber now trying a strategy of give promos to selected riders or riders who used non promo rides. While drivers trying to manipulate the cancellation fees. Hahaha. Doom....

As I know....Uber will not increase their fare....only reduce to attract more riders.
Can't believe there are ppl.still drive for them lol...
With grab increase the fare, I noticed it's harder to to get a ping, probably all went to Uber

crapcar slow pings in areas such as cyber, putrajaya, nilai...

but much easy to get ping with Ublur...but price is terrible.

sometimes the actual fare is only 80 to 90% of their fare formula, i.e. 0.25 x travel times+ 0.6 x km

If I am rider, of course I would choose the cheapest ride of the two....afterall, there is little differentiation between Uber and Grab.

If both fare about same, then, I will request Grab, coz no need hassle answer call from driver asked "mana mau pigi?" doh.gif

Grab driver mau accept, accept lor, don't want accept, don't accept lor....no need call and ask, willing rider, willing driver.

Plus, Grab got promo one, got points convert to other stuff rclxms.gif Uber habuk pun tarak

cheapskate, poorfag rider, ex-Uber here laugh.gif

But, in my records, I always give 5 star one ok, and I never let Grab/ Uber driver wait one, I wait for them, and give as much details about my appearance when request ride, like what colour shirt I wear, what I wear, and almost stand middle of road when see them approaching.....lucky haven't get mowed down by car or lorry yet sweat.gif

Some trips are basically 0 income for me no matter how selective I am LOL...
I'd rather be like a taxi driver, make fewer but higher fare trips.
Rather than drive like a dog and make peanuts.
