Bammzzie: Sorry I just saw this... I hope you were able to pin down the job. Good luck. But make sure your tires are in good shape Your breaks are sharp Your engine oil is still fresh Fire extinguisher is good Spare tire is intact Custom papers and car papers are complete and valid. Buy full tank b4 you leave Lagos and when you get to Benin refill it that will take you to your destination. Should you have tint on your car? Make sure you set aside money to settle police at each check point irrespective of your document (highway police no dey like see tinted car). Leave Lagos early, don't use Benin bypass ooh use inside Benin when you get to Benin to link Benin Agbor road then straight to Onisha. Should you have any delay on the road due to construction along the Ore Benin axis and thereby getting to Onisha late? My brother park and you guys should lodge in a hotel. The rate of kidnapping is very high across the country now. Don't speed beyond 120km/hr, don't engage in F1 with those guys that would zoom and pass you. Above all, make sure you rest all day a day before the journey so you'll be physically and mentality sound for the long drive. Above above all, pray for speed and safety from God Ijewere (ijoma) 11 Likes 1 Share |

kanuisagoat: Thank you for this news. Trip did not happen but he was reported. Just see the extent riders can go? Copying and pasting a drivers name and plate number cos he arrived and canceled. Bolt didn’t charge for canceling yet he went to social media. Drivers suffer more in this hustle. Imagine if that was a driver that exposed rider online. They will say confidentiality and bla bla 1 Like |

Bammzzie: Too poor. There's this company at Ajah that goes to East with camry spider. They charge 25k per person. Three people only and they leave Ajah between 5-5:30, before 3pm, you're at Enugu. I don't know what car you use, but assume fuelling to and fro 20-25k Food and police 10k Car maintenance after trip 5k Profit, 10-15k for two days. 1 Like |

No need to panick. Only sure thing is that you will pay; how much?... depends on your attitude n negotiation power. I encountered them today as well in front of nnpc station coming from cele inward okota. There was traffic, so I maneuver my way to enter the station via the middle demac. Unknowingly for me, they are in an oncoming towing van and they just blocked my car right there in the middle of the road. My rider, a lady who sat at back was winning down the glass on their instructions but i quickly control it frm my side...... Conclusion; every move i made, their driver will closed me down, they tried to deflate my tyre but i kept jacking the car n turning my steering in all directions till i escaped from them: na so all the keke guys dey shout..... I was lucky cos i didnt believed i could escape... James Bond con hijack my system for just 5mins. Lagos is not for a Gentleman. frubben: 12 Likes |

InfinityEstates: This is one of the things I quickly learnt on bolt as a newbie. Never to go on long pickups except I have the absolute commitment of the rider that he/she will wait. This is because they will almost always cancel before you get to them and nothing dey pain me pass that thing. Infact once you do that, I will send you a nasty text message and I don't care if you screenshot it and send to bolt. Sample text message I once sent to one lady. This particular one was painful because I told her where I was and how long it will take me and the idiot told me to come only to cancel just as I was arriving at her street. 3 Likes

BAZ001: Oga it seems you're ignorant of the modus operandi with the app. Several times I'd contested with Uber on several mails about this scenario you made here and my fare was readjusted. Uber is highly classified and they can check pass records before making a decision. One thing with Uber that is also bad is you can only cancel after 5min of waiting but at the pickup zone (within 100m diameter). No matter what the rider will say to Uber that cancellation fee will be charged in either ways. Most Nigerians are worse than Satan itself, I just found out that my Uber account was blocked due to the fact that i cancelled after waiting for one stupid useless girl who happened to be a Uber staff. The most painful aspect was that i was even the one calling her and for about 4x, "im coming down" was the reply i kept getting. I was to kick my car and leave after cancelling was when she opened the door and sat inside. Sorry I just cancelled, kindly reorder, I said... Wait time was 15min... I was so pissed that day. The next my account was blocked for high cancellation. See my profile as at when account was blocked. dont ask me how I know she's a uber staff and responsible t9 the blocking of my account I mbok. So get your fact straight.

Hello everyone , camry 04 tyre changed from 205/65/15 to 195/65/15...is it okay ? Hope there won't be any issue later ? |

Felicity001: My brother, there's very little room to cancel trips on bolt without getting blocked . Sometimes you have to drive to heaven just to make a U turn to pick a rider who wants you to pick her from inside her room. Other times you get trips to God forsaken places or useless short trips. So bolt leaves us with no choice, they are in the business to make money and so am I. I am going to maximise every minute I stay online to make the most money I can make. Even Uber with all those their yeye policy I keep hearing about, if I drove on their platform, I will still outsmart them. |

Felicity001: Infact you have really given us the real life scenario. This was the bone of contention that rider can’t report you or get your account blocked if trip did not happen. I sensed this could happen but I’ve never experienced it, so your case is the best example. But do you know if you had just suck it in the rider would have apologized for wasting your time and your account won’t get blocked? I’ve waited for 49 minutes paid waiting before, I was just praying rider doesn’t cancel. It was a cool place so I press seat and used it as break time. 1 Like |

BAZ001: I just realised you're not much of an active driver so you may not really understand some of these things especially as your experiences may be limited to the few trips you do. You are not looking at the fact that next time, the rider will make sure she's almost done with preparations before ordering a ride and will not keep the driver waiting. Some of those riders who hop into your vehicle just as you arrive might have been schooled by people like felicity in the past. Yes his account was blocked so what happened? He has survived without them and still doing okay. 12 Likes |
