An Appeal From The Heart

[silverbullet]

Apparently this chap is claiming to be getting bullied online.I haven't seen any of it myself.It is very odd that a limo driver/tour operator would be putting his nose into the taxi industry without anyone asking..Weird shit to be trying to block up the city for an industry that he has no affiliation to.Check out the sad music on the video.Try not to get emotional lads.

Progress?

Discount is down to 20%, still the lowest fare on the market but not as low as it was last week... but response time is still the fastest available.

I don't chase bonuses but they're offering some today from 1pm so the discounts might be rolled back a bit.

The bonuses get in the way of cash work.

I covered one Uber job yesterday - the only Uber fare I've covered since ending my sulk/protest on Monday. That was at c.11:00 and was a so-called "fixed" fare (64.64 before commission for 64.80 on the meter) so wouldn't have counted towards bonus payments on two counts!

I don't pay attention to any of the bonuses these days. When Free Now were giving us €200/250 for 20 jobs that was worth chasing, 30 or 40 notes here and there isn't worth a bollix.

I worked for a few weeks exclusively for Free Now including 3 Saturday night shifts and didn't receive any bonus yet got a €30 bonus (for what or why I don't know) on a prior Saturday night shift when working for Uber as well. My conclusion being that if they don't come in 3 out of 3 "peak time" shifts working exclusively for one app they're not worthy of any attention whatsoever... if they come without any relevant effort, so be it. I have heard the argument that bonus payments make Free Now's single figure Taxi Saver fares worth covering of a Saturday night 'cos the "bonus" works out higher than the lost PUCs but I'd rather keep it simple and just have the full fare and the freedom to take work from other rideshare platforms or the mean streets as might prove desirable.
