Only to get there , she begin dey ask for acct no. Somtyms I wonder wats wrong wt such riders, in a HOT zone like Marina, asking for acct no. Some riders sef.

AngryIgboMan: Very funny lad. Are you saying you have never paid any LASTMA, POLICE OR CBD OFFICERS ever since you started driving on Uber /taxify? I met someone last week and in the course of our conversation, he said Marina is his safe haven, that he has never paid a dime or get caught breaking the law at Lagos island . Though he said he had to part with 3k on two occasions to Road safety officials because of his worn out tires and some agbero boys at somolu for taking a one way route. So I'd like to know how it has been going for you. |

waks1: The best is to avoid cash payment on any of those tolls, once you have an etag, it will debit the card(the etag uses a proximity sensor). It happened to me once, since then nah etag all the way. I do load the card often with 2k via the LCC app to avoid stories. |

Monkeyprick:I have never paid lastma, cbd , police and other dirty tout since i started anywhere in lagos. I pick up and drop off at marina/ broad street in style. Its all about insisting on safe places to drop off and pick up. Preferably oando, kakawa by 1stbank head office or at the entrance of car park but ensure ur car is not anywhere on d road. Atimes, i settle those oando guys N200 for proper short parking if its a surge long trip. If its a cash trip, i end the trip 500m before d drop off point. And if u are doing transfer, 1km away from drop off point. I prefer to loose the N200 to riders than using 5k to beg one political touts called lastma or CBD 10 Likes

pope191:He must have been arrested for something else. Maybe broken windscreen etc. They are not arresting any uber for hackney permit since their site has been down 2 weeks ago according to a VIO source now. I Just spoke to him. And uber has not asked any driver to get hackney permit yet. Lets not panic but ensure ur cars are in good shape as per broken windscreen, side mirrors, brake light, headlamps, reverse light. Ensure your fire extinguisher is on 12, if on 0 there is danger. 1 Like 1 Share |

So I just drove past Anthony to turn into Ikrorodu Road, by the turning to link Ikorodu road VIO plenty there, both side(the turning connecting to Oshod if you're coming from Maryland and the turning once you pass Anthony bus stop ). I noticed they stopped one Corro with tinted glasses. So guys be careful. |

Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by mazinaija: 2:12pm On Feb 16, 2020 |
northbird:mind you angry Igbo man is not totally right...he has limited knowledge of Lagos street. For instance if you are taking a trip to marina,only drop off your rider at oando or any of the car park,but make sure your rider pays for car park. For pick up at marina, direct your rider to meet you at oando... For Tinubu square direct your rider to meet at CBN. Anywhere other than that,you must be very smart and bold to do it. You can also do your pick up at kakawa and in front of first bank |

donfortune48: This is pure set up. From the behaviour of the girl, the sienna that packed behind you shows it was a setup. That girl is probably inside that sienna observing the drama. Immediately the sienna packed behind you was when you should have taken off. They'll claim you packed along marina road and vehicles were packing behind you. Lucky you. Me, I don't pick riders on Lagos Island as a whole. Once i drop, I take off to either VI or Ikoyi, places I'm familiar. Lagos Island is confusing to me, from ever since I was in secondary school till date. Their oneway streets and LG touts and agberos. And now lastma and so many uniforms I cant identify, they're all thieves. They've collected my N10k once and that will be the last. Heartless people,[/color][color=#990000] just avoid them no matter the surge. 1 Like |

For drivers on rentals, If (I used IF) and IF the Hackney permit rumours are becoming true, kindly tell your partners to get it. It won't be easy looking all over your shoulders for 300 days. LASDRI is #2000 for a year. Think about it, brethren PS: I said IF oh 3 Likes |

ncnerio: Uber does not care about bank transfers as mode of payment. They will reimburse you if the rider does not pay at all or pays part. What they mean in essesce is to confirm bank transfers before moving on.......or as usual tender the number to the court for further disciplinary actions. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Pls what procedure do i follow to register my car for bolt/uber? I need to know the cost attached to it and duration. What's the minimum year of driving experience required? |
Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by iyaegin: 2:53pm On Feb 16, 2020 |
izzou: Bros there is no IF here I can rest assure you that LASDRI and Hackney would be made compulsory, don't get carried away with talk that Uber has not yet sanctioned it that in itself is shallow because is it Uber that will determine what document is acceptable or the Government whose road you are plying.like I said I have the recording and the officer said the only requirement that is being reviewed for now is the operator license, the LASDRI and Hackney are standard and here to stay.For emphasis he clearly stated that you require a Hackney permit once you carry humans for commercial purposes which is what ehailing is all about.so if you have to get documents worth 2k and 5k for one year why not do so for peace of mind rather than paying stupid VIO fine of 20k or more for non compliance. 1 Like |

Lateef91: For uber, I don’t know the cost of their vehicle inspection but for bolt, all you need, 1. Your vehicle license document 2. Third party insurance 3. Jack, wheel spanner, fire extinguisher, spare tire. 4. Chilling AC 5. Car must be neat 6. 2k for inspection fee. For the minimum driving experience, not required, just have a valid DL That’s all 1 Like |
