Are Uber/Grab drivers making decent income?

[sadfa]

Again. This forum needs my posts to set the standards

All these uber grabcar started in foreign countries where there's few taxis on the roads looking for customers n you've to call them. N tons of private car owners who can sideline as taxis

Of course its difficult to succeed in spore where there's so many taxis n market is very very saturated.

So in order to suceed, u must work damn hard or the taxi industry cock up like peak hours, too many ppl n too few taxis. Or taxi too.expensive

Exchange points saturated ma?

I just started. i have full time job. My Altis is $537 after discount is 497 per week. Roughly 71 bux per day. Not worth my time and effort.

work at 9 but need to come out at 7 to have minium 2 trips. 6 off work, need to clock min. 5 - 6 trips just to cover rental. So part time do this job not worth. if u have no need for night class for upgrading ur skills, maybe 1 week can cover the rental. If have ur sat and sun burn,

Vehicle rental $497 per week.
One month $1988 cost of rental fees.
Haven't include petrol and parking fees.
Doesn't seems worth to drive. 😞

Jaychou, agree with u. on this. If 1 week 5 weeks earn 112 - 120. minus petrol, car park and etc. not worth.

6k net very hard to believe

Even Cabbies who r single hirers n drive literally whole day n drive peak hours n nap during down time can't do that unless they damn lucky or always get full day booking.
They make 3k very happy le

Seems so actually

Read a piece of news in the Chinese daily 新明日报2 days ago. This family booked a Uber car to travel from Queenstown area to Marina Cruise Centre. They r going for a cruise holiday. It was supposed to be a 20 mins journey. End up the lady driver took the wrong route n the journey became 45 mins. They were late n could not board the ship. The family went Uber office to complain n demand compensation of the cruise fee amounting to $2000+. Uber front desk shoo them away, saying it is the driver's problem. The driver is just a partner, not employer of Uber. This family damn suay...now how to get compensation?
