Thank you for your response, I have a bolt and uber account but I haven't used it before. When he went for inspection, he told me everything cost 7000 (both bolt and uber) and there was no paper given to him but an email.

Did you give him money for this?

They will pass you. Just hold a little rabba for the inspection officer.
Do sign up on the 3 Ehailing platforms (Bolt, Uber & InDriver), it will give you options to choose from.

The inspection cost 4k (Uber & Bolt, 2k each) and you were not supposed to pay for it, except he was deadbroke that you had to borrow him & collect it at a later date.
It is the driver's responsibility to inspect the car.

If i may ask, how long has he had your car for? Has everything been smooth sailing ( in terms of delivery money & car maintenance)?

The driver is dubious. Inspection is 2k each for bolt and Uber. Drivers are usually responsible for it.
Even if your job stabilizes later, don't give your car to the man again. He probably knows drivers pay for inspection, but he collected the money from you and still dubed you over it.

Start by uploading your car docs and inspection report to set up your acct.


Good luck

Well, i wouldn't like to pass judgement based on your revelation. It is always good to listen to the other party in situation, such as this. I once had a Ford Mondeo that turned out to be an hired assassin grin. The car plunged me into serious wahala & mental breakdown. So, maybe, the car had too many issues that we call Lemon.
Nevertheless, a driver ought to call the attention of his partner anytime he has car troubles, except he's footing the (5k) driver's repair bill.
5k repair bill is a clause on the terms of agreement, which states: a driver would foot expenses of 5k and below on the car. Any driver that agrees and signed it, should not bother the partner on that term unless it becomes a weekly expenses.

In case of next time, ask for mechanic recommendations around your area. Not just any kwe kwe mechanic, rather, one that knows his onions. No matter how good they are, dem still no go finish your job cos if they do, u no go patronize them in months grin. But at least, look for one that would reduce your expenses on the car.
Inform the driver to always fill you in on the car maintenance. Make sure you get to see your car once every 3weeks for thorough inspection & see the state of the vehicle.

he picked her online once. She saved his number cos uber app shuts down 12am. She needed a trip past 12am and called for an offline trip and then the above happened according to her. Truth is, we have some fraudulent and dangerous persons posing as uber drivers same as some riders. It goes both ways.
his number is all Uber/bolt needs. Bro, I'm not sure you are in the system.

Good afternoon comrades!
Abeg make una come to my aid o.

I picked this young man on Sunday evening from Osapa London Axis to paradise 2 estate. We had a good conversation during the trip, he even naratted how he and some other folks just rescued a girl from committing suicide. He even preached how closeness to Christ could have made a difference.

We got to destination, trip ended 1500. He transferred using ussd, I asked him if he had received a debit alert he said no, but he seem pretty exhausted, so I had to let him go (which I told him I don’t normally do), then he also told me to call him if I don’t get the money.
I decided to wait a little bit outside, while refreshing my mobile app, still nothing. Then a new request came in, called him that I still haven’t seen it then I drove off.

Ever since then this guy as been posting me till this very moment and just this morning he blocked my line and sent me a fake bank alert (cause I’m yet to see the credit and it’s afternoon already). It’s not even about the money anymore, he’s making a fool of me to have trusted him

Nigerians are something else.

They want you to drive one way, you refuse, 1 star.

Do you know some will even give you a poor rating because you insisted on them using a seat belt.

You politely tell them not to eat in your car, 1 star.

God help you if there's traffic on your route. You deliberately drove into traffic, 1 star.

Sometimes, I really can't wait for December so I can go off bolt.

You guys that have been doing this for years are the real MVP

All of these mentioned I've seen driving with Bolt. grin

Haha... This ur ford show u shege I sweargrin I just remembered those days you and i used to talk over the phone concerning it I could feel how terified you where each time we talked honestly I wish I could buy over your worries then I wouldn't have had a 2nd thought about it.

Talking about drivers/problematic cars... My worse experience was with a 2002 Toyota camry I used late last yr/early this year... There was nothing I didn't experience with that car from leaking radiator/over heating, to AC flooding, bad tires, to dead tires, LAGS taskforce(we spent ova 160k on that), to shelf both legs, to AC blowimg out to high fuel consumption... And the list goes on and on... I remembered almost hitting a car on colleague road on 31st night due to failed breaks system if not for experience and God's mercies maybe I wouldn't have crossed over to 2021.

Bad car will make a good person/driver seems bad especially if the drivers is unprofessional about it, but thank God i was always putting the guy in loop each time matters arises but it got to an extent that he was even tired and scared each time he sees my in coming call.

My advise on daily/weekly complains about bad cars/constant driver's complain is:

Owner partners should try as much as possible to put car in good shape b4 renting out.

For partners with more cars on their fleet, do a swap with another driver and study the two cars for 2-4weeks, if problem persist with the subject car sell it off otherwise, sack the erring driver.

Partners should always make use of their mechanic weather trusted or not, don't get mechanic recommended to you by your driver unless you live in the same neighbourhood

For partners with just one car on their fleet, retrieve the car and carryout a thorough investigation and repairs on every complain about the car, don't borrow money from your driver to fix your car if you don't have cash park it till you're buoyant enough to do it.

If the body, shock absorbers, exhaust pipe did not have any issue all through the period of complains on other mechanical parts then partner can consider the driver to give the car to him after repair, otherwise, get another driver. Interior neatness is another area you can easily know a good driver, especially the boot and areas around the driver's seat.

Don't rush to tag a driver bad due to constant faulty cars, some cars are from the pit of hell.

How? Why?? Is d driver the owner of the car?
Or is it the driver that will put the car in other up to d standard to pass inspection too

Abeg, Car is for the owner except when in HP, therefore it is the owner that is supposed to pay for inspection.
That doesn't mean drivers can't pay for it, but its not the drivers responsibility.

I bought the car myself no 3rd party during Jonathan regime, seems Buhari regime has affected Nigerians mentality. The poverty is so much we buying 2007/10 car in 2021. We should be buying cars from 2015/16 but dollars don make people go 15yrs back and claiming Grade A Tokunbo

You send email alert and not text message's. The rider is obviously a scammer let the plaintiff reports the trip to Bolt for his account to be blocked simple.

I want to believe he dropped him in his residence, if he can trace him then he should go there to see if he can find him by asking neighbors around.
