Hi, I am planning to drive Grab, should I register with Grab alpha or directly to Grab? Can anybody advise?
*
The best and fastest is thru an Alpha. In my case it was 24 hours. First get ready all your documents, submit to the alpha. Answer 20 questions online after viewing tutorial and within 24 hours can start driving. I submitted my documents and answered the online questions on Sunday and by Monday I started driving. All done online and by phone and whatsapp. I've never met him in person. hmm.gif

Anybody can register you but the trick is to get the right amount of support via the unofficial line not CS. An Alpha should have a whatsapp group for his downline, from there we help each other and share all things about grab. I am satisfied with my alpha. Either he or the others will answer all my question and settle my fears about driving grab in the first week. ohmy.gif

Grab is stepping up their efforts to recruit new drivers

Does it means the number of existing drivers has gone down?

Probably a lot of drivers got permanent banned

Seasoned and veteran drivers know when to drive, what ping to accept or ignore or cancel, which place to avoid and above all, how to score incen when it matters and when to letgo incen for that HF... rolleyes.gif

GRAB wants noob drivers. Drivers who brave the one hour traffic jam for RM5 fare, drivers who dbkl all fare all the time, drivers who accept blue screen pings and hoping for a match and drivers who work blindly with no system. That is what GRAB wants... puke.gif

Its not about permaban or less drivers... It is simply drivers getting smarter and outsmarting GRAB. nod.gif

It does not matter if you are PT or FT. We will have to make it work if we think Grab is still profitable to run despite all the regulations. PT say FT will quit because so mafan... FT say PT will quit because no time to go to complete all these requirements... icon_rolleyes.gif

I'm a PT. I will make myself complete all the process needed to drive. After that, let see how the Grab and Rider react to all these new laws... Define PT FT? FT no other income than GRAB, PT got other income than Grab. Its not about the hours you spend in Grab. nod.gif

In the mean time, Let just keep our cool and keep on driving. thumbsup.gif

U omitted something there, u need to convert your personal car into commercial car. If your car still under HP, u have to fully settle the loan then only able to convert to commercial.

Commercial vehicle interest rate is higher and margin of finance is lower if not mistaken.
*
Hence the quotation of whether it is still profitable to drive after completing all the hassle and if anybody can afford to do all these requirements be it monetary or time. Its not a question of PT quit more or FT quit more...

I met some otai at landside giving lecture to newbies. He mentioned that to get big fare trips, always keep lots of money in credit wallet. This sifu show everybody his balance credit wallet is rm700 and never lower than rm500. He claims he don't bother HG, with high balance, and flexi he can gross 2K per week.
Any comments...? I am little doubtful about this.
*
Credit wallet high is a must/compulsory. 2K per week is not impossible. another thing he dun reveal is his AR. How, when and where to fish those Jerungs... dis one most sifu keep for themselves. Even if he reveal every little details oso there is a thing call Luck thumbsup.gif

hmm just curious for KILA landslide what is the average waiting time?

i 've been to KLIA landslide several times after dropping passengers but so closest queue i get to is around 400+, waited like 15 minutes still long way to go

All the time i decided that going back subang empty car for pings is a better choice than waiting few hours for ping at landslide
*
Normal waiting for 2 hours is good and less than 2 hours is better. Anything more than that is a minus to wage per hour. 1 hour to send to klia, 2 hours of waiting plus 1 hour to go out from klia. 4hours divided by RM130 is RM32.50 per hour... not bad huh? blink.gif

Is it true now you can ignore 2 klia pings at LS b4 hafta accept the 3rd ping? Please can any1 confirm? hmm.gif

I'm a new driver, quick question. how come there is no way to put money into cash wallet? Then only can put into credit wallet, my first day all customer pay cash then my credit wallet running low.

Just my day 2, my rating already 4.33 [11 jobs] what am I doing wrong? I greet them, fetch them, then let them off. Some really good client will give extra tips but I didnt expect any of them unhappy. Is there any way to earn better money?
*
Two things you can control, car and driver... Check car for cleanliness and put on good music and aircon working fine and air freshner too. not the strong type... Driver... check your driving skill, anticipate the traffic in front of you. brake lightly and (Basil) golightly. Slow passing bumps and try not to hit potholes... Put a smile when greeting and say thanks or goodbye when done. and sorry if anything goes wrong... Yes... a lot to do but it's natural when you do it everyday. If you no mood to drive or too tired then dun drive...

the other two you can't control grab gaming you and riders mood... this rider no matter what will give you 1star so avoid picking them up.

Whatever people say... driving GRAB is a service industry... Driving skill and your service have to be on par...

in Rakan Grab Central facebook page, few drivers posted screenshot of GrabCar now moved to Specialty section at the bottom of the app. Top of the app is now JustGrab, followed by Grabcar Plus.

Is Crap intentionally sabotaging it's own drivers? no wonder ping is very less for the past few days, as passenger might not noticed Grabcar at the bottom of the app.

GGWP Crab!!

This is a way of GRAB to coax GC+ who lost their status to comeback and get KLIA trip. Unsuspecting user who simply order or first time user will always go GC+ then. Veteran Grab rider will not fall to such trap.

Now the burning question... does maintaining AR 85% (No excessively filter ping) and high DR worth it now to fight a GC+ queue in LS CF? Simple... Want GC+ Klia, maintain GC+ standard... Dun want GC+ Klia... Can ceripika till AR 30% lorrr...

Let the GC+ players confirm...

I did. I told them everything. even now after Ive udnerstood how to grab and earned good aomunt of nett profit every week, whenever I remembered the first few months I started with uber/grab, I still feel like i wanna cry. soemtimes when im alone, I still cried about it. it was just that hard...

now these people, already have stable career, loving wife, beautiful children saying wanna quit their job to do grab full time because they have heard good rumors, I really wanna punch their face and shout their sense back into them in front of their wives and children you know...

but when I told them about my hardship when I first started, somehow they think im just trying to scare them so there wont be a lot of competition. at that point i dunno what to say anymore...
I think, the only people who really understood what I went through was you guys. even my family dunno what happened to me back then. i was almost pushed to the brink of being suicidal because of financial constraints and life pressures... sigh...

feel sad, man...  cry.gif

you guys will never know how eternally grateful i am when you guys took the time to guide me back then, you have no idea sad.gif
*
You must have done something right and showed to your friends that you are doing well enough up to a point that they refused to listen to the hardship you endured and only look at how you are making things running smoothly right now. notworthy.gif

Congratulations, Bro! rclxm9.gif

Just ask you friends to try PT first before jumping in heart and soul to Grab… Furthermore, next year will be the real testing time for PT and FT after all the Gov rules impose and for the crap grab screw us… rclxub.gif

We Grab drivers is thinking grab have done all the crap that can be done… (AR, CR, DR, AA, TO)… Oh nooo… there will be more coming… puke.gif

Sorry if topic a bit far, register with Grab directly and other so call Alpha now, got difference? These so call Alpha can be trusted yes i guess?
*
Register with Grab directly - Go JayaOne and bring all doc and you on your own after attending short grab class. Register with Alpha - Submit everything online to your Alpha. B4 that ask your alpha got support group or not, mine do. If not just enter some open group like Lyn telegram for help.

Whaddaya mean by trusted alpha? Alpha gonna abuse your info? I dun get it. as long as they register you swift and promptly without any hassle and provide support when you need it, that should be sufficient.

Come story a bit. We wish to be re educated too. Who knows in the class they give you tip how to get your golden ping.

Is it just me or anyone noticed this week/today ping quite slow at KL area?

Its been like that since the taxi mogok saga and its gonna get worst. hopefully towards the end of the month, all gaji out and rider demand come back.

yesterday i was from morning 8:30 till evening 8pm, rest 2 hours, managed to get RM215.00 (Net + incentive) for 20 trips...ard Cheras, KL, Mont Kiara. But need 10 hours, really kuli.

No Klia trip? Rest two hours at ls or cf while waiting q is not such a waste of time when you need it most.
