Weekday Peak Hour Driver Incentive Is Actually PhP300 for 3 trips, Not PhP200

So I got my payment statement this afternoon for the week of January 18-24, 2016. To my surprise, I earned extra PhP300 on my weekday peak hour drives, instead of just PhP200 as what was stated in the official announcement.

This is good news for part-time drivers as they only need to have at least 3 trips and at least 3 hours online during the weekday peak hour, which starts at 5PM and ends at 10PM on Mondays-Thursdays, and starts at 5PM and ends at 12MN on Fridays, as below.

Compared to other incentives this week, this is the best. Effectively, you'll get an additional of PhP100 per trip, compared to DAILY GOLD DRIVER of PhP80 per trip or the DAILY SILVER DRIVER at PhP71 per trip.

UPDATE (February 1, 2016): It seems that it was just a mistake on Uber's system. My payout for last week's weekday peak hour driver incentive was only PhP 200.

RIDER MUSIC: Play Your Own Music In Your Driver's Car

Rider Music: Play Your Own Music In Your Driver's Car

Did you know that you can play your own music in your driver's car during an Uber ride? Thanks to the feature called Rider Music. It allows riders to choose their own music to play through the Uber car's speakers during their trip.

Playing music in your driver's car is easy. Here's how to do it for iPhone users:

1. Request a ride as usual. If you get matched with a music-enabled Uber, the music bar will appear at the bottom of the Uber app.
2. Tap the music bar and choose a song from any of your Spotify playlists while you wait for your Uber to arrive.
3. Your playlist will start when your ride begins.

On Android?  The Uber in-app music experience is coming soon, but you can still control your music through the Spotify app. After connecting your Spotify Premium account to Uber, tap the music bar to jump over to Spotify. Once your ride starts, tap the Now Playing bar in Spotify. Then tap the Connect icon  and select “Uber Partner”. The music you choose will play through your car’s speakers.

 Other useful Uber features  that you should also try:

1. FARE SPLIT: Split The Cost Of A Ride With A Friend
2. FARE ESTIMATE or FARE QUOTE
3. SEND STATUS or SEND STATUS TO CONTACTS

TRO UPDATE: Update On Becoming An Uber Cebu Partner-Driver

TRO UPDATE: Update On Becoming An Uber Partner-Driver

Here's the official e-mail sent to existing and aspiring Uber Cebu partner-drivers  regarding the TRO on applications.

UPDATE ON BECOMING AN UBER PARTNER-DRIVER

Hi <your name here>, A number of you have expressed concern over the Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) issued against the LTFRB accepting TNVS applications last month, and the delay in the processing of your TNVS applications. We know a lot of you waiting for news regarding all this, so here are some answers to your most-asked questions: Has the TRO been lifted? We are currently waiting for confirmation from the concerned government agencies that we can resume TNVS submissions. Our legal team is fully-dedicated to making sure this is done in the shortest possible time. Is this why it's taking so long to process my application? As we have mentioned before in past information seminars, we are aiming to be fully-compliant with the LTFRB ridesharing regulations put in place. Without the ability to submit your TNVS requirements, we cannot onboard and activate drivers. So where is my application right now? If you've already submitted all your TNVS requirements, your application with the LTFRB is on-hand. As soon as we get the go-ahead, it will be delivered to the LTFRB and you will then be informed of the next steps. If you haven't yet, in anticipation of the LTFRB accepting applications again, please upload all the necessary documents (now reduced!) to your partners dashboard (partners.uber.com), and upload the required TNVS documents here:   For any other questions/concerns, please feel free to reach out to us via partners.cebu@uber.com
