    Nobody needs bonuses or surge charges, all everyone need is just proper pay, all we need is to charge the customer fairly and pay the drivers fairly and company also take their cut fairly which clearly it’s not happening and with the direction that both companies are heading it will never happen

      I will say, for those that have issues saving money. Monthly bonuses really help.

    Just drive more hours isn't the solution man, especially when your already driving a lot. This is why I'm suspicious of this channel at times. It's advice that directly benefits the rideshare companies more so than the drivers. Clearly they want us to drive more, while they continue to benefit from their stocks SMH.

    • @Dan_Matwij
      @Dan_Matwij 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thats all this channel has turned into. I like Jay but he's wrong here. To tell people to drive more when they are already is starting to fall on deaf ears.

    Also were seeing bonuses like "130 rides for 225$" which is insane for a 4 or 3 day period. It sucks. These offers are not part time. And they inspire dog tired driving

    Hi,
    I just picked you up one day at San Diego international airport, and we had a nice conversation, and I would just say unfortunately as a more than seven year drive that this job is about to be dead very soon because there are already plenty of drivers, and also the robotaxi is coming very quickly!

  • @NeverTooLate546
    @NeverTooLate546 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Drive less. Pick up a decently longer rides, call the customer, and ask them to pay you directly, give them a 10-20 percent discount. Do about 5 of these weekly. You won't need to chase the bonuses nor bitch about not getting it weekly. You'll be less stressed and will gain time for yourself.
    All the bonuses= 1) bait to keep you out there longer, 2) simply giving you a bit back on what's meant to be your's in the first place.

    • @kenniejo8844
      @kenniejo8844 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Are you not worried that the call is being recorded? And how can I offer a 10% to 20% discount when I don't know what the customer is paying? Sometimes I receive half of the entire fare and sometimes it's less than half, I won't know the details until the trio has been completed.

    Glad I found an e-commerce business so I’m doing Uber and Lyft just to share my business to passengers. I’m not earning to Uber & Lyft to where I want to be like before, but it helps my other business so it’s the time to benefit from them rather than they’re taking advantage of us drivers.

    It is really good message from you . Thank you .
    I have been driving Lyft and Uber for 7 years and getting sick too.
    We had to use our own vehicle , own gas , own maintainance , own time & own driver . Lyft and Uber are making more money than us .Just using the app. It is obviously not fair .
    I am interesting in delivering medical products . Please share more information and your experience in delivering medical products.

    This has been happening to me also I’ve been working with Lyft for five years and giving very good service. I believe that the bonus is are not showing up anymore for a few reasons. They are giving the bonuses to all the new drivers. Second reason I think they want me off the platform because of my car being an older model car, but they don’t realize that I have kept my car in good condition. It drives very well. I get many compliment but yet Lyft is making it very hard for me with my bonuses, plus the gas is going up higher and in LA. They say that Lyft is cheaper than Uber. I’ve had passengers telling me that that is why they’re with Lyft now.

  • @stanleyjenkins6905

    Lyft and Uber will keep taking advantage of drivers with this mindset. I keep business cards and I've built a great client Base. I have all the correct insurance to cover myself. In Memphis, lyft still have bonuses, Uber doesn't. But, when school starts, bonuses will come back.

    Why you all keep complaining. Go get another job, a job that you can actually learn skills from. I see so many drivers crying about Uber this lyft that, but the funny thing is, they still do it. Come on! Guys, there are plenty of other jobs out there. This is the dumbest job out there anyways, just driving people around all day. It was the greatest decision I made when I stopped driving for them. Now I feel like a human again, I can actually make an improvement in my life. Once these self-driving cars become fully operational in the next few years, do you think these jurks,Uber and Lyft, will waste a minute to replace all of you with them. What are you gonna do then when all the experience you have is driving. Think guys?
    I can understand if people do it as a side hustle to make a little extra, but to give your whole life for it. That's stupid!

    Well to be honest iv noticed the more bonus you the more they take from you..if I have a 5$ bonus and 30% turbo going and take a ride for 15 I should get more then 16$ foe it..I have pics of me having scheduled rides for one price and once I do the ride they change it
    I called and asked and was told long as you get what the upfront pay said it right..I asked what's the point of having bonus if your just going to adjust rides on me..they just said sorry nothing they can do..I said so if I didn't have the 5$ bonus I'd got the 15$ for the ride.she said ya again I asked ok so what's the point of having them if your just going to adjust rides I notice it will come up and say ride switch when they do this and I have that off..but I don't get switched it jist them changing the rate
