QUOTE(Artak @ Apr 24 2018, 11:54 AM) first of all, salute to fellow GRAB drivers out there. hi bro, looking at your expenses is really kinda highI have quite a bit of dilemma doing GRAB. ive been doing this for the past 3 months, full time, and I'm seeing a worrying pattern to my income. I thought I might be doing something wrong, because my own experience and what I read over the internet and hearsay taht people can easily makes clean income nett profit above rm3k per month by doing GRAB. so my daily routine is usually like this, and my expenses. I started working from 9am and I usually do it till 9 or 10pm everyday. Sometimes I take 1 day off every week, sometimes none at all. Expenses: RM80+ Everyday Fuel RM50 Everyday for GRAB Cash topup RM20~RM30 Toll RM20~RM30 Miscellaneous (food/tidbits) other miscellaneous costs not included like phone bills/cleaning/car maintenance/tyres etc... So this is pretty much my daily expenses doing GRAB from 9am~9 or 10pm everyday with the RM50 topup, I can make RM210~RM250 gross salary everyday. Minus my expenses, I bring home less than RM50 home everyday nett profit. At this rate I'm getting around RM1.5 only nett profit every month working my ass off everyday from morning to night with no life. Ive heard other drivers bragging that this isnt the case and theyre making much more money than me. Please, I beg of anyone that can help me. what am I doing wrong? How can I improve myself? I desperately need to improve... Im seriously at a loss. Expenses: RM80+ Everyday Fuel (you drive 400km a day chasing red spot? you need to find a spot which is suitable to your driving area and which incentive you take) RM50 Everyday for GRAB Cash topup (normal lah top up) RM20~RM30 Toll (toll is paid by rider unless its your own during chasing the red spot so try not to pass by toll or chase red spot) RM20~RM30 Miscellaneous (food/tidbits) (i think quite standard for whole day) try to hit minimum RM30 per hour inclusive incentive. chasing red spot is not the way for me, instead of moving around try park at mall or market area for like 10-15mins, no ping then move to another area. (park,wait and move) fuel saves more if you can off the engine while waiting if still cannot, i seriously think GRAB is not suitable for you basically your gross earning RM200 you earn is break into below GRAB commission - 25% RM50 Petrol and maintenance - 25% RM50 Your gross before food and own toll - 50% RM50 - 20 food - 20 toll = BALANCE RM10 WTF  |

PLease read the first page here. can you please show me to the main thread ? https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4478891 Gradually, read last 100 pages. I trust all your questions will be answered.  If you sapu all, I think ur AR is high... >80%. Do opt in HG to try it out if the plan is good for you. HG Players aim for RM5 trip cos wanna max incen but during B or P block they fish for jerungs or eat good food (go to telegram chat, see what they post for lunch or brunch, heheh) or go tgk wayang.... If you never opt in then ur Flexi now. Flexi players really2 choosy on ping they accept. some set RM20 above only. some KLIA player only. but AR koyak laa... 30% to 50% (if they wanna chase flexi cashback) Flexi pro I know still bring back RM400 gross daily for 10-12 hours job. Smile and accept that some days is good, some days is bad. Now... start reading please... If your livelihood depended on GRAB. |

There is a opt in button/link in your weekly incentive structure mail in your grab app notification.QUOTE(Artak @ Apr 25 2018, 03:07 AM) btw what doesB block and P Block means? so much jargon haha B for Bonus, P for Peak.As I said, all this jargon you will pick it up once you've read the last 100 pages. Please read. Take some time off and get to know how to maximise ur income. If you're really serious about making money in Grab anyway cheers!  |

QUOTE(montyashley80 @ Apr 24 2018, 01:46 PM) how's grab since uber no longer available? more tough for driver since more driver is looking for job? Well, there are many other platform eg. My car which am have better pings than others but others such as Diff and fyi, both mycar and Diff platform do not have DR and AR and CR rating and mycar is offering 100% fare til end of May and will start deducting 15% commission 1st of June whereby Diff strategy is no commission deducting but need monthly subscription for unlimited trips. I am doing mycar now and so so but then they are new. Hopefully they can replace ubergrab use to give lots of incentives..what happen now? as said for better future get full time jon during daytime and grab during night..but make sure you get enough rest and sleep ok..take care bro |

OMG, 3 months? You're seen still newbie! Check my current table earning! I'm doing this about 2.5 months HG in KL city, being part-time driving and I'm satisfied what I had did over the months! I can easily hit minimum RM250-300 per week just only the incentives. With trip fares, roughly Rm600-RM700 earning, minus car petrol and toll, I could have clean RM550 per week. My car get 2 time fills petrol per week and run me about 630KM per fill and only cost about RM120 and maybe less than that.
Learn how to KAYUH! I drive every morning from 6AM-9AM and then step into office at 10AM.

We help you so you can help others ya... peace yo! I promise Ill keep you guys updated. early this morning i called grab customer service and the operator actually spent quite a lot of time explaining to me what mistake I have done, because I intended to do GRAB full time, and have been doing it like so for 3 months despite deficits in income. he explained to me, because I was ported into GRAB when they bought uber, my default account had always been flexi account. tahts why despite spending long hours everyday, ive been getting so low income because I had 0 incentives for 3 months. also the cashback rewards are seriously ciput... I actually had to spend it for car service. You be surprise that some driver do not have chat group, or any other unofficial support. All they do is register and drive and listen and watch the youtube videos, the official ones that is.... Kesian la like that... Their referral if any? dun care oredi... you guys really have no idea how much this meant to me. and yeah, just like u said, I had no one to turn to. which was why I had to turn to /k/ and found this subforum. i wouldnt be exaggerating if I said i had hit rock bottom. I was soo depressed these past couple weeks. im doing my job like a robot. I had no life. my meal was... well, compared to those succesfull GRAB drivers who posted their meal everyday and watched movies, mine was pathetic... I hope this thread wont get closed. Ive bookmarked it and Ill post updates after 1, or 2 weeks my HG acct has been activated from flexi acct. Im seriously indebted guys. truly! |

I have so much to learn. once they granted me HG acct, I will post an update here! |
