I use Xiaomi and indeed I get a lot of GPS disconnection problems. What phone would you recommend that's good for Grabbing use but also reasonable price? Iphone is out, too expensive and I don't want to learn a new OS.

RM2k is an eye popping sum for me to spend on a phone. I think I'll just stick to cheap, mid-price phones. Still can use for Grab, just a bit more troublesome with the GPS.

I submitted end May, early August then got reimbursed, and that's after chasing them.

Is full timer income for Grab driving in JB as good as in Klang Valley? I'm from JB, came to KL to work and then switched to Grab driving. If Grab income in JB is as good as in KV, then I might just move back to JB to be near parents.

Let's compare yesterday, Friday 30/8. For 10 hours online in KV, I had RM407 fares and RM31 TB bonus. This is a pretty typical income on Fridays, the best day of the week. In JB, what would be typical on a Friday?

Bro, would you mind sharing the JB incentive table?

Hmmm, seems like JB can't earn as much as in KL. Won't be moving back then!

Your conclusion is spot on. So many other people straightaway, automatically blame Minister of Transport for this debacle without using their brain. And I think that's the intention of the little Napoleons of JPJ and APAD. They know many people will without thinking, blame their political master for their shenanigans instead of them. In this way, they will help to move public opinion closer to restoring their beloved BN rule.

May I ask what is mysikap?

Anthony Loke was in Montreal for the ICAO General Assembly, which lasts until 4th October. I do not know when he returned to Malaysia. He may or may not have stayed in Montreal for the full duration of the conference.

Incidentally, JPJ and APAD informed the e-hailing operators in a meeting on 4th October about the 2 new last minute requirements. So these little Napoleons at JPJ and APAD (Najib loyalists?) could be using the opportunity of Loke's absence at Putrajaya to do some shenanigans and turn public opinion against their political master.

Then you must ensure these people you know sit at the front. The enforcement officers won't believe they are your friends if they sit at the back, like most passengers do.

Can anyone confirm, is it true that if now your vehicle code change to e-hailing, then in future change back to private car when you stop e-hailing, the history of changes is recorded in mysikap and used car dealers can see this history of previous vehicle code?

I put it under my front passenger seat. Under that seat is a mounting bracket for the jack. I put the fire extinguisher behind the jack. In case of a frontal impact accident, the extinguisher will be prevented from moving by the jack (which is mounted to its bracket) in front of it. A non secured fire extinguisher can fly around the cabin and injure people if not secured during an accident.

It's good to carry a fire extinguisher in the car. And it's not to please JPJ enforcement officers. All vehicle fires start out small. With a fire extinguisher, you can prevent it from turning big and destroying the whole car.

I was at GDC Axis this afternoon and saw they have a table at the building entrance giving out a stack of that JPJ e-hailing stickers. Those who don't have can go there.

And I was there for a stupid reason.

1) On 28th Sept I uploaded my renewal insurance policy through the in-app Help Centre
2) On 1st Oct Grab Acquisition emailed me to acknowledge receipt of the renewal policy
3) My previous policy expired on 11th Oct
4) On 14th Oct I got suspended. Calling CS, they said it was because my insurance has expired!!

After complaining to them and emailing my renewal insurance policy again then they restored my account. But it took 2 days to gaodim. Through no fault of my own, I got suspended and lost 2 days of income.

Anyone also experienced this type of problem?

You guys listed many drawbacks to being a Grab driver. It's common to many other self-employed jobs. It's all about options. If somebody has a corporate job paying 10k/mth, you think he will choose full time e-hailing? Or sell nasi lemak/ pisang goreng at roadside? In other words, those who choose self-employment in the informal sector don't have the luxury of choice, of say a 10k/mth corporate job and the other benefits that come with it.

Between sitting at home waiting for handouts, a 1200/mth minimum wage job, or e-hailing with a decent income, it's not difficult to see why many choose e-hailing. You do however need to not be single-minded about chasing the money, ie take care of your body by not working too many hours.

Does anybody know how people become Alphas with Grab? Does Grab pay them a salary? If without a salary, then what benefit/compensation do they get? Just curious to know.

I think most riders are also unaware of the Notes feature. Very few use it. Most use the chat function when they have something to tell.
