I alway put red face when rider change drop off location... regardless of whether the rider ok or not. Then put grandma story in remarks column. Grabcar read or not I am no sure.

by the way, if they contact u to seek your explanation on the issue, it means there are some minor improvement in their drivers discipline handling process....

someone 1 in my what app group complained that he kena suspended after warning sms for driving dangerously. try to call cs, as usual, can't get any meaningful reply. Only manage to get some clarification when he goes to office....

Grabcar staff informed him face 2 face that issue was way back 2-3 weeks ago...& they reluctant to explain which date and trips that he refer 2...my poor friend also can't remember incidents anymore..don't know what to said how to counter back the allegations

when he try to explain anyway..grabcar staff just said management already made decision and there is nothing he can do about...he has to attend the reeducation class before the acc is deactivated back

Crap now allows riders to change location, and drivers are compensated for that.

Sometimes change of destination can be to the advantage of drivers.

Once I picked up a group of PRC at Dataran Merdeka. Their preset destination was their hotel. But they changed their minds, and wanted to go to Masjid Negara, which was nearer. I happily complied, and in the end still collected the same amount of fare laugh.gif

Bad riders are still more tolerable than bad bosses and bad colleagues lah...

The real concerns are earnings, career advancement (practically none for Grab drivers), and other benefits (annual leaves, MC etc.).

If none of these can cool their enthusiasm, the PSV license and Puspakom inspection will biggrin.gif

I keep hearing people lamenting how crap makes our life tougher.

No doubt crap has tightened the rules by introducing AA and timeout. But bear in mind that it has also increased the fare.

So overall, earnings of Flexi drivers and HG drivers who are not too choosy have not been badly affected.

Those badly affected are HG drivers who tried to exploit the loopholes - reject long trips during HP and UP blocks, avoid heavy traffic areas.

Now, if they play by the book, they will earn more on fare, but less on incentives, and burn more fuel. If they don't play by the book, they will be suspended from time to time.

I still think driving Grab is OK for part timers or full timers who have lost their jobs. But if your salary is 4k a month, don't resign from your job to become a full time Grab driver.

How were your jobs after you canceled the KLIA trip?
It's raining in KL. You didn't get stuck in jam?

i just try to call grab for a from Wisma Central to Menara Atlan due to raining so cant walk back to office. but after 4 times calling no one accepted when there are many drivers nearby. The Fare was Rm7 but can go up to RM9 as other friend tried also.

Wisma Central to Menara Atlan - need to make two U-turn, very troublesome.
The other way around is easy.

Two of this customer has been banned by Grab when I call customer service earlier to make a big rant and use every fuck words that came out from my mouth.

I'm so close by to them while stuck in traffic jam during  after office peak hour and they cancel on me without any reason.

Cibai customer deserve it ...

Customer is King ? Haha come I show them who is King also
*
These riders probably couldn't wait and took cab instead.
Or they book both Grab and Mycar. When one arrived they cancelled the other.

btw horror story from me today:

I counted 8 TIMES! that when ever I exit simpang, or pass junction, or immediately after I pass toll plaza, or immediately I enter highway, I got job assigned. before that when im in convenient location my ping was dead.

8 times this happened today. is it just me? my feng shui so bad today ah? >:x
*
I am on b2b most of the time. Usually I get ping when I am still ferrying riders, so it doesn't matter if I have passed a junction.

If there are no riders in the car I will stop at the roadside and wait, or drive slowly. If I am driving in a highway I will just stop accepting jobs.

lol that one understandable, they really expect drivers to be SO responsive and they didn't realize driving shoudn't send message or call de. most of the time i didn't respond to msg unless the reply can be as short as OK

I got once after accept job straight away call to ask where am i, my phone somehow after update when incoming call, the phone app eat up whole screen hiding the maps and i missed a highway exit. cancel lo

btw on a side note, during no AA, when another ping comes in during a job, it will also eat up whole screen and hide the map. i guess nothing much can be done on this.
*
You can text back to the riders when you stop at traffic light.
But yeah, these drivers are irritating.

as for me if i saw they got luggage i usually go down an help them put in my car back seat or boot, same goes to when removing. Don't want them to scratch my car or force the luggage lol. Got once they just let me do it and enter my car which like.. wah i personal driver liao, usually locals will make sure the bags all fit in only the enter lol.

My only concern if some1 drove my car away lol so sometimes remove key when felt a bit insecure.

Me too.

Last week I picked up a lady who just went for grocery shopping. When I dropped her off, she asked other people to help her with the grocery bags. One guy took away my bag from the boot doh.gif
Fortunately he realized it and return the bag to me sweat.gif

P/S I mentioned about the location - it's at an extremely quite place at Damansara and there were no other buildings within 100m.

Hi , do anyone how to change from flexi grab to hourly grab because i join grab on end of august.

As explained, it is no longer possible to opt in HG.

But don't be too discouraged. With Grab hiking the fare, HG is not so attractive anymore.

My wife just started doing Grab yesterday? Any tips for the new comer? Can see her acceptance rate is low after one day.

As a beginner, just drive near the areas she is familiar.
No b2b i.e. set to not available for jobs after pick up riders, set to available again after drop off riders.

As a woman, drive during the day...
