as long as we didn’t let it suck into popular new year celebration spots....high Tb does look really tempting

I know a few driver's end up sucked into BB area kl. they end up stuck 1 hour can't complete a job because of road closure. but in the end, once traffic started moving again, most got super high fares.rm100+ for 30km type jobs

I don’t understand what u means by traffic start moving again ..
at 1 am ++ I get a ping from pavilion side ...it took 20 ++ minutes to pick up.. for 1 km+. cancel for good

ask those drivers who end up in trek around midnight or past midnight time... traffic lagi best
*
start moving again means after police open back the road blocks (around 2am). depends which area. from Times Sq side goind to PJ was 20m. at 2am, may not able to go into Pavi side yet from certain direction (like Chulan). but I know someone who pickup from Fahrenheit 88 around that time take 10m to pup from Jln Sultan Ismail direction.

Moral of story was as long as you didnt rage quit because of jam, eventually you will be compensated with a jerung.

The guy never turn on AA? Mine almost same timing and distance in a super clear area. The earning rm23.2 against rm8.8 lol...

These kind of posts are 100% confirm berdegil type, filter but dont on AA. even if you SD but with AA you will received TB during Jumbo peak. think about it. $1.2 per min is RM72 NET per hour. its very hard not to receive any TB. if you didnt turn on AA...you get 0.4 per min.... 24 NET per hr. almost impossible to get TB ...

Those who turned on AA was the biggest earner. Gone were those days when you can select jobs which you find interesting.

Grab has now turned this into officially a blind dare game.

So disappointed at how we the once upon a time, incentive earners turned to flexi now has to suffer at the hands of their system.

This year definitely got to look for another job. Enough is enough.
*
Actually Grab said it already.. it is because of cherry pickers is why they implement AA. if everyone filters and only selects 'interesting' jobs...what about non interesting jobs? and what about the drivers who didnt manage to get the interesting jobs? So I say the present system is more fair to more people. not just benefit certain groups of drivers who always can select the best jobs...most of the time thru cheating methods.

Then why not just implement as a totally "blind" system rather than offering the option of turning off AA?Certainly they know there are people who are not interested in doing anymore of their incentives or not able to. Also the mod apps are getting rampant.
*
you are right. I think its matter of time before they implement mandatory AA for all jobs.

I'm wondering, the trips with big bonus, is it a far away pickup or was it a within 5km pickup? If it took you long enough to pick them up or far, I would say they have successfully "poisoned" most of the new drivers.
*
I can tell you most of my pickups on AA during JP was less the 500m away. max 1km. and no, it did not take me one hour to complete each job. most hr blocks actualy 2-3 jobs was the norm. except for 1 certain hour block near the magic hour on NYE..

You are not the only one. Flexi drivers totally no Boost at all. Those who are daring enough to on AA in/around the middle of city center KL only did got it.

*
You should know this, Grab advertised their incentive rates up front. flexi only get $0.4 per min guaranteed...RM24 per hr net. JP 1.2 per min, = RM72per hr net. so 3x higher chance you will get some boost but only if you AA.

If I’m cherry picker then I won’t be screw by crap already.

Look at this job for yesterday, RM4.80 net earning without TB for MP slot, their logic is u can complete within 8mins. Mind u I was at pjs10 (opposite SUNWAY pyramid) and how the hell I can complete within 8mins on peak hour? Fact is I took 28mins to complete.

Why are their technical team so incompetent to detect those cheaters and give them permanent ban? All jobs should be interesting, with the right pricing and allocation to the right driver. It is Grab's fault if providing a job "not interesting" at all, ask their own staff, would they give up their salary paycheck to drive on the road on their own system? Best if on their AA all the way and see how long he can survive. I think very few to none of their staff will enjoy driving even part time, except using their knowledge to game the system.
*
I cant answer why their technical team so incompetent..I wished they were no cheaters too,


but your next few sentences bother me. Grab is a business. they provide us a way to get customer we cant get by ourselves. It is a JOB for us to drive passengers around in return for money. no one said work is supposed to be enjoyable...that's why its called WORK. Its perfectly alright if you think the work is paying too little for it to be worth your time or effort.

We all knew what was coming, but didn't expect that the High Fare mechanics system was so badly hammered down.

One of our close friend, who's driver account got banned permanently over a simple misunderstanding between a passenger. He had to resort to using somebody's name to drive at the moment. And so luckily that this 'other' persons bank account has issues with the bank and all withdrawals are currently freezed. If he turned on AA, most of the jobs will be in mixture of PROMO,GRABPAY or CASH. Do you think he dared risked the CR just to select only cash/promo payment types? The new year is ushering in, he has a family to take care of, mouths to feed, childrens to send to school. AA??? He tried to appeal but Grab only kept giving him the cold shoulders and ask him to go fly kite.
End of the day, they are providing us the platform, if you want the incentives, you gotta play to my rules. If you do not want, then go on and pick till you get locked out of the system.

I've come from the guarantee per trip days and I would say they are really squeezing out the drivers and riders dry. The days of incentives are long gone.

In a way, Auto Accept is actually helping to address this "not interesting" trips. By compensating you the time to reach, distance to reach, and duration and distance to complete. But as you drive longer and longer for them, you will find that it gets into your mind. Given a person with a 999 EQ level, he will also breakdown at one point due to frustration because of facing riders behaviors and the traffic congestion.
*
I agree. this is a fair point. burnout is very real in this line. especially if you put in very long hours to meet your commitments which for the average grabber seems to be very high. On top of that the effect on your physical health is not good too (unhealthy eating out, late nights, sore body, stiff neck/shoulder/back). I'm in the privileged position of been able to only work as much as I need to support myself and still have time to do other things. I cant imagine the stress one faces if he does this full time to feed a whole family. IN that case I would seriously suggest he develop a sideline business of doing offline jobs/tour guide and get a six seater for Grab.

Not a waste at all. I was busy driving other parts of KV netting 65bucks per hr after commission during that time (1-3am). Let those bravehearts/greedy souls camp and fight it out in BB. ofc some of those greedy bastards lost the gamble and rage quit or come here and meroyan after that. Damn wasted their time... LMAO.

Btw I'm the braveheart that you talked about, NYE the whole night I was at bb fighting for you haha, but I managed to sneak in sneak out around KLCC, the so-called worst place. As I said earlier, when most cannot stand the traffic, I can, like our legend, must overcome it, what I scared is not traffic jam but no jobs.

Why drink so less? You know what, I used to bring 5.5l bottle, most of the time I could finish it, and always made my rider's day when they questioned about it laugh.gif  Now I bring 2.7l since the 5.5l broken due to car crash.  Water is crucial. Don't play with your health.  With the removal of HG, the best part is we can take our own sweet time to rest at intervals of driving.

i fully agree drink lots of water... however.. how the hell your bladder can tahan that much wate (5.5ltr).. especially if you're busy on shift???!!! you do the pee in bottle style?

E-hailing is a platform for part time lovers who can moonlight for extra income after their office hours. And most bosses would not permit thier staff to do it as it may distract thier actual work or those who sneak the company time to cruising riders around town. And those who dun cherry pick thier route or riders may ended up late for thier work or appointment. Imagine the bosses seeing thier staff with Green Grab logo once the law by JPJ takes effect in June. Especially when thier sales staff quota are not met or coming to work late  hmm.gif 

Dat's why I really wonder why some got new cars plastered with Grab advert to grab attention and riders. As for full timer, does it makes ringgit and sense to Grab riders  confused.gif

You are speaking from a privileged position.

I think you overlook one thing; for many, Grab is the highest possible paying job they can get. You may say go do taxi better etc....well..I heard its not all that rosy either compared to grab. Lets not even be surprised ppl will happily let Grab plaster their car for extra few dollars....many will take loan from Grab with exorbitant interest rate or take a discounted handphone from Grab. Thats the reality of the job market and prospect for drivers and people in this country right now.

PS: if you think full timers cannot earn with Grab...you should see those who got banned from GRab and still doing e-hailing with MyCar.
