Dey play



It doesn't tally

na you wey dey rush pick trip...I've taken someone from cele to ajao(15mins) for 6k on indrive. if you're smart you'll enjoy indrive

SHOOPSYN:
@Glithronix, what are you guys up to! I can't go online on indriver except I allow them use my location "all the time" instead of "when using the app". Why will indriver want to have my location"all the time". I just feel is not right.

so when you cancel a trip and still do the trip offline they will know😁

northbird:


4b,idowu Martins, Victoria Island.

There's no parking on that road. But you can park off certain streets there and stroll down.

will go check it out, they even asked me to come collect seat cover there. I just don't know if you can also make complaint there

Glithronix:

Even for the whole country, dem never get.

Much respect, boss.

😂😂

please does anyone know if indrive have a physical office in lagos?

pope191:


How many years and what if ladri?

one year for both...ladri can be done at the office beside lastma office just before oshodi bridge if you're coming from gbagada

How much is the Hackney permit and how do I get it?

4k5 same place you renew your papers, it doesn't take more than 20mins after they start doing it

it's always advisable to do hackney permit if you're driving on uber. it's very cheap and doesn't take more than 20mins to get. I have been in many situations where those useless VIO thought they've gotten me(as I normally don't give them the Hackney till they ask).

Starboytwo:
Good afternoon guys.

It's hard to work in Naija. Police people are tryna kill me.

Today, I left my home and I was stopped in palm Avenue Mushin. Offence. My temporary driving license expired on the 09/07/24. Exactly 6 days ago.

I was driven to zone D mushin. After every every, I parted with 10k plus 5 hundred for gate. Total =10500...

Immediately, I proceeded to lastma office oshodi where I did the temporary and I got an extension at till 30th of August... I felt invisible and I proceeded to look for client. I saw one just at the oshodi interchange, she was going to mushin(make I dey go house back)

I never start motor a policewoman stopped me at same oshodi interchange.. I gave her a complete paper work of the car plus the new temporary license. She certified everything alright and said it remain "Hackney permit"

After long talk, I offered 1k. She refuse. I showed her my opay, na 2k remain. I offered to transfer to her, make I dey go house drop motor. She refuse transfer. And asked me to go withdraw blah blah.

I left angrily. Using map to find my way, trying not to make some funny turn as Lastma people have dealt with me.

As I was going, another set at mile 2 stopped me, wielding gun etc. Treated me like a criminal, searched my car, asked for the usual etc, I told them it was collected by a policewoman at the oshodi inter change.

Since 12, I have been detained inside a nearby korope in mile 2. My car, my Temporary driving Licence, the new temporary extension I got few hours ago, everything is not in my position...

Current situation.

I wish I could make a case against them. This is not how to treat a law abiding citizen.

this your story is really confusing. firstly, do you keep your original car papers in your car? secondly, how did you get to mile 2 from oshodi while going to mushin?

Barbiturate:
Always have a valid DL when driving. Recently I renewed my papers with one of my friend(VIO office Edmund crescent) he's the boss in his section. I forgot that my DL had expired. 2 days after, VIO officers stopped me before waec junction inward jibowu. I had seen them at the yabatech junction but I was so sure I had complete papers. I stopped and pulled over and then told the guy politely that I usually do my papers at your office with so so person, unfortunately he isn't known with the name. He asked for my DL and I gave it to him. Then he said it has expired. I said give me let me see. He refused and showed me from afar, but I couldn't see it so I told him that we should go to their office since it's close by. They said I won't drive and they dragged my key with me in the ignition. My car was unlocked. They overpowered me and collected it and I succumbed and told them to drive to their office. When we got there I called my friend. He said I would have settled with them or even call him immediately. Told him I was too sure I had everything complete and that if I knew I would have done it with him. That I thought they wanted to extort me!

The guy that drove the car went into their ogas office(the head of their own section....I guess patrol) and lied against me that I was driving them away from the spot they stopped me, to a different area and they had to drag the key at the ignition with me. The oga got angry and issued me 20k fine. Then he said my car will be in their office for 3 weeks, 4 tyres deflated and I would have to go to epe(every day for 3 weeks) for one yeye training.

My guy said I didn't do it well, but I would have to pay the fine cos it had been registered but I won't go to epe. That I would get the car that day but in the evening when he must have calmed down.

To cut it short. I paid the 20k and collected my car the same day in the evening. My friend called one of the ogas at unilag DL office and told me to go there the next day. I went and viola, did capture 2 days after! I learnt my lessons though(not totally my fault sha) but then me and those guys na correct paddies now. They see me at times and they don't stop me anymore. Met one at a bar close to my house and he bought me and my friends drinks.

it's really hard to forget your licence has expired since its expiry date is always on your birthday

pope191:
Abeg person still fit work today? My body don rest for bed like this 🥲

if your car can swim, you're free to work. The whole lagos is flooded.

[quote author=pope191 post=130761448]

How about if you are living in such area?
Well, that's the only exception. those going home can accept those trips.

sometimes I see trips on indrive and I wonder who are the drivers taking such trips. nothing on God's green earth will take me to sango Otta even during dry season not to talk of rainy season.

Omoapena:
Bosses in the house, I greet.

Pls, my corolla is shorting oil seriously now and the engine still sound very good. Pls what can I do to make it stop, it's really bothering my mind.

I use total 20w-50 to service it at every 4000km cover, pls, if you have solution to the engine shorting oil, kindly relay it.

check if it's dropping from under, if it is then you have to change to seal in-between the engine and gear

IFSHR:


Have you checked the engine seats ? All the seats

the vibration has stopped...it's just remaining the occasional jerking while on motion. it did that twice today

pope191:


I won’t say fix, but manageable. Changed the gasket and the weather has been favorable for driving. While changing the gasket, we realized man has to start planning for another engine, but went ahead to change the gasket and smooth the top. I’ve been using it and work has been going smooth so far, no such things as off again, slight vibration once in a while(maybe in hot sun, but morning and evening is perfect). Engine is around 280k though, so I am bracing up for come whatever. As for the vibration, I am suspecting one of my fan, might change it next week to see if it will resolve that.

mine has been giving me issues for a week now..it's jerks sometimes while on the move and vibrates when steady. I've changed 4 plug, fuel pump, even gear oil, service nozzle. it's stopped but once in a while it still jerks

pope191:


If that is truly the issue. Prepare for both steering rack and pump.

bro how did you solve your car vibration and offing ish?

Gwhizzy:


Lagos,
Lekki
I am not really conversant but I just google map.
I will stick to bolt and Uber next week.

listen to the advice you were just given by northbird, as a newbie I also believe you have no business with indrive or rida, start with uber or/and bolt, get used to how billings work and later switch to indrive if you still want to.

Some riders are just very wicked. Took this guy from sabo to around passport office ikoyi.(His office) He begged me to take him to a super market and bring him back to his office, that he would add to the money. I took him there, waited for sometime and brought him back to his office. This guy transferred the same amount on the app. He left the car and entered his office immediately he made the transfer. I called him and told him and the wicked idiot didn't even say anything.

This is his number: +2349034967699

that is why I have decided to not do any additional trip within a trip. just pay me for my trip and book another ride.

this lady wanted me to pass a route that clearly show 15mins slower and has a toll gate and I refused telling her I'm in a hurry to somewhere. I even told her that we can cancel so she can get another ride. she said what if she add 500 naira?(smh). I refused and she said OK, we should go. only to see that she gave me 1star later.

You can't transfer or receive money for more than 2hours now. NIBSS is down

Sirchiboy:
How much are you suppose to make with 10k fuel.
I dey see only 1k on top as profit.
I don tire

I have been in the job market for years and I can tell you what is obtainable from experience.

When I say there are no jobs. I mean jobs for people in my age not MT.
It's based on connection and referrals.

I've passed recruitment stages from test till I met with CEO and I didn't get it because I'm Igbo.
I've passed recruitment stages from test till names were sent to FCC. Checked from commissioner representing my state and name still intact till it got to the department/agency and it was shortchanged.
I've passed NNPC test and went to Abuja for interview and I heard nothing again since 2011.

I was the highest in a recruitment test at p/h(travelled from lag to p/h) On the day of the interview, they gave a particular guy so much respect and audience. They even gave him tea and they never offered me anything. They didn't ask me more than 2 questions and they told me to go. In fact they hurriedly interviewed me. I scored 74% and the guy got 52%. We discussed it when we sat together.

Another one in Lagos. I was the first to come for the interview but they attended to the guy that came after me and he was asked to go for medicals even before I was interviewed. I made the interviewers understand what they did. One was trying to defend it and the other apologised.

I passed test(2 times) and interview for Abinbev. I was even called for medicals but I didn't get the job at the end. I was replaced.

Bro, I can go on and on and on and on. I have so many experience. When I tell you there's no other way aside connection and referrals, trust me, I know what I'm saying.

I have worked with construction/building/haulage companies and production/chemical companies for 8/9 years all together.

we all have stories for days bro, before I decided to start my own business and then compliment it with ehailing I know what I went through and the numerous disappointment due to not having godfather in higher places...the final one was the immigration saga, I passed all the process only to be replaced overnight by a guy who didn't even write the test at stage one.

Barbiturate:


Yes. I work any day I want.

my indrive app was down all through today, I just wanted to know if yours worked today.

Barbiturate:
Why will indrive ever allow this kind of price to surface for the distance?

so your app is working today?

Pearl1910:


Passing Thirdmainland through Adekunle and passing Eko bridge is not any different.
Una eye don too big such that even with the increment in fare Una no still appreciate am, na so so complain and the error part una go see. Before will u collect 5k without surge from Mushin to eko hotel?

Well... in my own experience my fares are not fixed, the extra enter Rider Bonus and is paid to me like a card trip. d fixed fare is in the Rider side, if u have a stop over, longer route or traffic the fare will still increase even though the estimated price is a higher band.

are you for real? omoh..I can't accept 5k for that on indrive o

please is anyone else having issues topping up on indrive?

Glithronix:

I swear.
Check the map and see what is happening at the moment.
Well, anybody coming from island should avoid taking 3MB.
Just jejely go and take Apongbon-eko bridge and find your way to your destination.
The traffic you go face on Ikorodu road is child's play to 3mb.
Make una check map before taking order oh.

I saw it, na orile to mile 2 then festac to connect ago I use now, very free

pope191:


Lol… never knew we are sharing same app. How are they going to deliver cakes like this 😂

when you click on the courier trip, the map logo changes from a car to a bike man with bag

pope191:


The app is majorly meant for the broke before 😂 me that is looking at Amarachi yesterday 😂 in my mind, you go sleep for office. Some riders no just get conscience. And another thing I’ll never understand about Indrive is their courier service. Some times I’m tempted to pick some just to ask if it’s 7 days delivery package they want.

I don off courier service tey tey, very annoying thing

Glithronix:

You don confirm am?

Much respect, boss.

lol..you be thomas, them don open bridge since..
work just sweet today

the bridge is now opened
