Bolt launches in Cork.

[mercenary for hire]

I was out at 8am this morning doing a bit and the apps were hopping.While I was eligible for the bonus top up to €17 I got nothing off Bolt except one offer of a long job which I thought was odd.Usually there is nothing but short hops.They must have it setup to send the short stuff to the lads who didn't qualify for the bonus.Crafty Estonians.

While I was eligible it offered me a Maynooth and an Airport.After my acceptance rate fell below 75% later on all the normal shit started rolling in.Fixed as fuk.

I agree Merc.....last Thurs was on a Bolt fare to town(Merrion Sq)...offered me a number of follow up jobs in the area but for some reason weren't giving them to me but then started offering me jobs over northside while still en route which I was rejecting,when I checked my acceptance rate it was down to 59% and the bonus that I had accrued disappeared and any job I accepted after that was only giving me a 1% increase so I just said fuk em,surprisingly yesterday the app was busy with no bonus in play.

Apologies Stephen, I didn't make the weekly 5 job quota to qualify both of us fer the Nifty Bobo, I had 2 done early Sat morning and another 2 just before midnight on Sat night and even though I worked on through the night (even during the jungle hours) with the app on until 5am no further job was offered to me ??

Seems very strange that even at maximum peak closing time hours on Sat night that no job was offered to me ??

[Belker]

I tried that Bobo tenner thing on Sat morning, the Bobo was to be online just 2 hours between 8am and 11am, I was online at 8am, got offered just 1 job and did it fer 13 odd euro, headed away home about 10.30am and the Bolt clock was stuck at 1.53 hours worked ??
I still had the app turned on online until 11am but the clock never moved from 1.53 hours worked ??

No bodder, Ken. They obviously don't have much in Cork yet. The honeymoon period up above in Dublin is pretty much over now with most bonuses requiring a 75% acceptance rate. That's a non-runner, particularly at weekends. Still, the freight is significantly lower than Free Now and it serves to reduce dependence on any single employer.

Slow start fer Bolt in Cork.

I had 2 jobs done early Sat morning and another 2 just before midnight Sat night,
then I got no job offer between midnight Sat night and 5am Sun morning,
(which would have qualified me & Rats fer the 50 Euro 5 job per week start up Bobo) ??

And again the same last night, no job offer between 3am and 6am on Sun night/Mon morning.

They obviously need drivers on board first Ken to ensure some sort of service,passengers using the app in Dublin still have longer wait times as opposed to using FN but the discounts they're offering to passengers at the mo makes them hold on that extra few minutes.

I didn't get paid me Tenner Bobo fer last Sat so I emailed them yesterday and got this response today;

Thank you for your patience.
I have checked your account details and I can see that you qualified for the 10EUR bonus and it has already been added to your account. Please be informed that you will receive this amount together with your next week's payout. Your patience on this will be highly appreciated.

The 4th - 6th guaranteed €17/fare bonus is working well enough for me. Two c.4.5 hour shifts has my current bonus at €43.20 and, with a 100% acceptance rate, I'm unlikely to fuck it up tonight. I guess the question I should be asking myself is might I have got more in tips if I'd ignored the Bolt jobs in the hope of offers from Free Now?
