The ultimate tip is to never enter KL. Don't accept job entering KL. Especially on Friday. Then you will be happy.
*
Hurmmm... I worked in kl. 5 - 6pm left office right at golden triangle. to move out from kl, there's chance getting trips to leave kl. on good days, got trip to ampang, wangsa maju, hartamas and so on. often easy to get to klcc. nightmare is to get to pavilion or anywhere that need to pass pavilion. no bullet because that the time start grab almost everyday. unless managed some trips in the morning.
learned to go unavailable once pickup passenger until really close to drop point, or just get available after dropoff. bad if forget to online and leave few minutes of the 60 mins offline, as seemed grab slash considerable amount if not enough 60minutes online for the blocks.

The other day got mapren at ampang to ampang area. Said waited 1 hour previous driver arrived and cancelled in front of him. was the same driver he got the morning. Sort of want to complain to grab of the driver, remember plate number partially. Getting in car right away ask to drive fast. I said, no wonder the other driver reject you. Then, instruct to go left/right his route., fastest maybe. Then ask please drive faster laa, I need to poo. (i get a bit worried then, so less respond). Then there is car infront quite 100mtrs ahead, he asked to get closer and faster laa pleasee.. once close, asked "cross la". Well, cannot overtake, there are cars opposite direction. Then he try this.. Faster laa, OR YOU WANT ME POO INSIDE HERE?

Pause a few moments, then I asked him "Why are you threatening me?" low voice. He said can't hear. Up volume I repeat, "Why are you threatening me?" then only he chicken and plead apologizing. lots of "I'm sorry, I'm sorry...." after drop off, keep comments later. 2 days later, put this remarks on, and tick abusive language.

Should have the etiquette.. get ease himself before boarding.

Honestly guys what do you do whe nsome of the foreign workers, after a long day of manual labour, gets into the car and stinks the trip for an hour? I also dunno what to do other than turn up the aircond and drive abit faster lol
*
May turn the air from recirculating to fresh. That is, the aircond takes air from outside. Have the rear window open a little. That way their smell goes out and fresh air come in. This mode, the aircond need to turn up more, and drink a little more petrol.
Unfortunate if the outside air is more contaminated, like diesel smokes or stinking 2-stroke smokes, or those worn-out engines or garbage smells.. turn back to recirc and had to endure the stinks..

Then, this morning received the same SMS as that.

Do you always drive like ah pek? I can't stand driving too slow feels like the world is revolving while am stagnating.
*
Driving with passenger as smooth as possible. After drop off or chasing to pick-up, ok la to drive a bit fast, but never show you are a rally driver. Haha..
Drive like driving a bas persiaran, super smooth. Acceleration and braking shall not cause body to move forward or be pushed back, also at corners, never cause the passenger to be thrown to the sides..
If bumped the humps bit too fast, apologize immediately and ensure when going over the humps, passengers' bottom are not lifted from the seats. We drive economy cars, can never be smooth on the humps, so be sure to slow down sufficiently. Different if luxury cars, a lot smoother over them.

Anyone know, is it possible our Driver App become corrupt, then Grab detect problems and accused us that we are not using genuine Driver App. As a result, our incentives are forfeited..
Using IPhone 7

Guys, how do u brain this logic in GS ride. I kena this GS arrangement this evening
*
first GS A to B
second GS C to D:

Pickup point C a bit away from pickup point A, not too far. Well, not too far by the pembaris, but sometimes by road is quite far need distant u-turn or so and take long to arrive because of jam.

Point D can be "ON THE WAY" to point C, or going to point D usually will pass through C, not necessarily straight line.

pickup point C may make the first GS regret taking GS..

Very unlikely.

Nevertheless, crap detects what kind of apps you have in your phone. So if you are using some unauthorized apps that under their list, then it could make you a suspect.

under the law of crap empire, suspect = guilty unless proven innocent. That is why sometime you heard someone lost their incentive even if they use genuine app.
*
Seems that crap want us to dedicate our phone for crap then. no other uses.

iphone 7 is too expensive to dedicate only for crap.

but 2 year old lenovo s60 is too sick. need other phone just for crap.
Then, use other number, use other email. Seems that crap already invade our privacy. Asked to be allowed to read everything in our phone.. Private Data Protection Act (PDPA) kicked to the sea.

"under the law of crap empire, suspect = guilty unless proven innocent. That is why sometime you heard someone lost their incentive even if they use genuine app."
-- I am one of them. WE17122017 forfeited. not so much, but about RM280 as per the grab estimation, is a lot for me.

Nah, give you blood boil even more:

Dear all fucking Uber drivers,
Listen here, if next time you see someones order a ride on your Uber Driver apps, and that person order for a 5-10 minutes (2-3 km) short ride, but you muhfuckers is like 20 friggin minutes away from the person. Then stop fucking accept the order idiot. Ain't nobody got time to wait you arriving in 20 minutes just for a 5 minutes 3 km ride. 3 km distance, if I walk in fast pace, I can finish it in 30 minutes, yeah, if you want people to wait you for 20 minutes adding you driving the passenger to destination in 10 minutes, it is like, the total lead time is 30 minutes, then why don't I just fucking walk, free of charge, instead of order a ride that lead time is also 30 minutes, where I have to pay. Also, for Jesus sake please don't accpet order if you're on the way finishing a current ride. Just drop that fucking passenger first then only accept a new order.
I know all you want is just money and profit dawg, I know you maybe broke as fuck that's why you want to accept so many order so badly. But please, no passengers would appeciate you drivers fucking with their precious time too. People got exam and need to attend to tutorial class, which the class is conduct by some 40 y/o witch, that has no sense of flexibility in time management, saying "If the tutorial class start at 8am but you arive at 8:01am, there is no attendence for you". Can you see it my dearly Uber driver? Our tutor is some crazy ass bananas. I ain't got extra waiting time for you to waste. I know you going to tell me, "Oh, if your class start at 8am, then you should order the ride earlier, like on 7:25am". Shut the fuck up my friend, because i'm the one who pay you, and you're the one who need to fulfil my demand and make me satisfy customer. And the thing that piss my buttocks so much, is after I order for a Uber ride, if I decide to cancel it, Uber wants to charge me for MONEY. Dafuq was that? The Uber CEO must be trippin balls, you literally charge money, from people who's not making any services trade. You can't ripoff people's money like that if there is no sales and trade. Fucking donkey.
Sorry for I can't control my profanity, I ain't no Christian tho btw, so fuck it. Why don't you Uber drivers just accept order that is near to you or long distance ride. So that we who wants a short distance ride, would not need to wait for so long. You happy, people happy.

This type of rider should not use e-hailing.

They should just walk to malls or lrt stations straight away. There are lots of taxis queuing. No need to wait for grab or uber driver to come. Please be the savior to those services and let uber/grab community clear of this rotten mentality.

I have set of cacing and the insertion tools & hand pump in my mbike and scooter. May need another set for this car I guess. Can get at Mr Diy, but the insertion tool just can use la. At least for emergency. But consider good 12V pump. Lazada package jumpstart powerbank with pump sells about rm159.00.

guys, anyone one has this problem using ipong? the grab driver app will not refresh its location after some trips while waze shows correct location. fucking annoying as has to restart the app and several times i got pinged for passengers 15 mins drive away because i am pretty sure the app is sending the wrong location.

the grab driver app store review seems to have this too:

Customer Reviews
Map not refreshing
   
by Ray940
The map is not refreshing after one trip, this always happened. I have to turn off the app and relaunch it again every single time!! Very frustrating.

using iphone 6 plus with ios 9.

same. map not refreshing.
later on realized that after open other menus and once back to home screen, the screen refreshes.

Subjective to predict lah. I usually received 2 short ones, before asked to go further on the last 2 in hour slot. Probably still in non-seasonal days. Skrg cuti sana-sini. Orang suka aktif semasa waktu gini. 😜😜😜
*
Yes, usually 2 short ones, sometimes lucky get 3, last 3-5 minutes got bombed.
Sometimes too short to notice it's long trip that wipe out the incentives and the next hour's chance for incentives.
If happen the next hour block remains with 15 minutes, only hope for 1 short trip RM5, so get the max rm15 topup.
6 + 8 + 8... + 36.. RM22 => RM58. Incentives lebur.

RM0 Grab: Dear xxxxxx based on feedback and on your driving pattern, we have detected that you are not using our genuine Driver App version. Installing unauthorized software/programs/apps aimed at interfering or disrupting Grab's services is a serious offence. and as gentle reminder, please do not continue such behaviour to avoid termination of your account. Please uninstall the invalid app and re-install our official Grab Driver app available on the Google Play Store/ our website at http://partners.grab.com/ios/latest/ In addition, your bonus incentives for week ending 24 Dec 2017 have been forfeited because there is misconduct found in your booking activity.

What misconduct is there in the booking activity. is ignoring the last job in that hour deemed misconduct?
Driver App version is the version from Grab. Is Grab putting non-official App in App Store?
Purposely to forfeit drivers's incentives?

Also if we use the internet of other device become ground for non-genuine driver app usage accusation?
At times, the telco on the hp we use is weak in the area, another telco on other hp is strong, so use as hotspot and the driver hp get internet from the other hp. Is that deemed non-genuine Driver App?

Why not Grab provide special device.. solve the matter.

It's within 5 km radius.. It says nearest driver. Driver that is available.
at Sunway Pyramid, on the way out to Taylor already Pinged for Sunway Pyramid.
In front of K Avenue, on the way to Masjid India, 19 minutes to arrive, pinged for K Avenue.

Super efficient.

So have to slide to "Unavailable" while having rider. Else if forgot, kena.

Incentives hunting is a tricky path & makes 1 anticipate eagerly. It’s a motivation pill. Receiving B-29 can be exciting, too coz it gives bonus to your earning against the incentive rates.

Do not proceed using the web address given!! 🖐🖐🖐

The official GD-app is in the Apps store for Iphone.
Here’s a walkthrough:
- Write down all cash wallet values, trips count & gross values.
- Log out from installed GD-app.
- Select settings to begin deletion of installed GD-app.
- Confirm the deletion by browsing through the possibilities within the ‘settings’ page & the homepage.
- Search for Grab driver app in the Apps store.
- Advise to login Apple ID only in ‘settings’ > Itunes & Apps store. This is to ensure the phone is free from malware acces.
- Begin downloading GD-app.
- After the download...browse through phone to locate the app & confirm that in ‘Homepage & ‘Settings’.
- Load-up GD-app.
- Go to GD-app homepage to find app version below ‘Logout’ button. Latest app version is 1.17.
- Recheck the information wrote down earlier against present information.

The top few telcos are doing fine except those below their tier. Consistently receiving a stable connected wave frequency is crucial to achieve our demand.
*
Thank you for the guide. So, it's not just simple uninstall and install the new one from app store.

instead of write down, screenshots may do, I guess.

Thanks again.

My honest advice to you is to maintain HG, wake up early and do the 6am slots onwards, better at 5am to collect bullets, 4 jobs get u 1 ignore but if desperate for early mornings MP u could mix it up a bit of 3:1 if truly desperate then 2:1(risky), do those till 9am and take all jobs to recover AR, preferably longer travels for better AR recovery else take as many as you could get and finish off at 8pm. During evening peaks starting at 5pm try to camp outside KL to increase the chances of getting smaller fares though slim but possible, do not ignore jobs past 1pm if you have ignored plenty in the morning.

Ignore all KLIA trips before 9am.

You could also switch the strategy around by taking all the high fares that grab will throw you early mornings till 4pm and only do selectively from 5pm to 8pm for incentives, by 4pm you'll have enough bullets to filter out the big fares, 4:1 ratio, do not fuck this up, it's safer if you could do 5:1 but 4:1 is on the fence but could get you at least 80% AR by the time you clock out at 8pm.

Constantly check the incentive tab for up to date AR.

If you do this, you could collect daily fares of 400, or slightly lower depending on the day, and some incentives around 100 bucks.
Stick to HG do not play flexi as you'll get the best of both worlds.

Camp at the deeper ends of cheras area for incentives if you could but don't expect to get small fares all the time cz grab will throw you unexpected 6km pickup in a row just to fuck you up.

And it's very important to be online the full hour if you want to collect HG, slide in the availability on the dot by 59th minute else grab will prorate down the HG.

You pandai2 la pick the hours for makan normally past 10am and before 5pm.

Thanks the advice.
In the same situation.

Often mapren expertly tell us to turn right, left, straight.. or show hand. As if we are monthly hired driver. Sometimes to do illegal turns etc.
Bising we drive too slow, when the road is wet, bumpy and potholes. Hillside road.. we are not rally driver la.

YOU have to firm up (kuatkan minda). It’s your CAR.
2 days ago, I educated this A-freak-kan nicely. He started that driving slow comment. 1km later started to say don’t use this road comment. Constantly showing displeasure.
I stopped beside a road without obstructing traffic & confronted him.
-Do you still want to continue this booking with this car?
-If no, I’ll send you back to the pickup location.
-Deiver is allowed to use navigation app & follwed it. I showed him 3 times about this step. I stressed at this point.
-Told him that this booking can be cancelled if not satisfactory with me calling GCS.
TAKE NOTE:If at any time a driver felt distress & insecure, call GCS or drive to police station.
The fella pipe-down a bit & continue.

Always follow road regulations. You are the owner of the car, so take charge owning it.

One time the mapren noisy I didnt overtake a slow car in front, and say "or I will poopoo in your car"
I take a deep breath then say "why are you threatening me?"
then he sorry sorry sorry sorry..

Hate most maprens never ready when booking. when we arrive, they still in their nest.

Hold feedback on his ride, later put remark as rider abusive, complete with short essay of his actions.

sometimes rider die die wait for us.
because they are still in the bathroom.
when we arrive, they ask to wait they coming down. We suffer to go back 6km or drive 25 minutes.

Another thing.. got ping just passed pickup location. But because of one way road, have to travel 10-15 minutes, 3-5 km big circle.
What's the best to do? few times I cancelled.

If early the week, CR goes up much because ride count still low. By Friday Sat & Sunday, not so bad la.. maybe
