Since the Grab thread is gone, I have to open a new thread...

I just registered for Grab, and went for training. A few questions:

1) When the Grab app is running, Waze loses GPS signal. (Last time had similar issue with Uber app too.) Any solution?
I am using Xiaomi Note 4 on U Mobile.

2) The trainer advised us to call the passenger and confirm the pick up point and destination. Do you do this?

3) The trainer told us that when passing toll, use the Tambah Nilai booth and get a receipt. Do you do this?

Advice appreciated smile.gif

I am also a newbie but for point 3, i can assure that all grab rides that i took they didn't even pass the tambah nilai booth. They just use normal tng or smarttag booth. Heck i dont even think the passengers would want the drivers to use the tambah nilai booth.

1) restart the phone. Used the good quality phone. After change to ipong, no issue.

2) Most driver didn't do this. Unless it is shopping mall with multiple entrance such as mid valley which rider always put it wrong pick up location and when driver cannot find rider. you can practice that by the way

3) not for me.

1) Check your Battery Saver settings. Did it restrict Waze and Uber/Grab? If yes, change it to No Restrictions.

2) Grab sohai. Encourage rider put wrong pickup location.

3) Uber training video teach that passenger prefer you use SmartTAG because save time. Tell Grab to come into 2017 la... Toll still have to manually key in... Referral still need to manually type in referrer name/referral code instead of sending a simple URL. That day I almost got 1 referee, but he go and type my referral code wrongly. Face-palm.

For (1), I can't keep restarting the phone.
iPhone is too expensive for me. Any other phone can you recommend?
