Took my car back, UBER/BOLT is a Bad Investment.
1. First mistake I made was to use a financed car for Uber.
Installment + Insurance + Tracker leaves you with nothing.
Since the car is always on the road, insurance becomes expensive, it is considered a high risk.
It can be difficult to find a reliable driver. It is always recommended to use someone you know (which can be challenging cause in order to make money you need someone with experience).
Due to the car being on the road all the time, the maintenance becomes expensive (sometimes I would service the car twice in a space of three months).
The closure of Alcohol hasn't made things easier. Most Uber drivers rely on people who go to the Groove at night. Under the pandemic, the business has took a huge knock over. The business work mostly if you drive your own car.
Using your car for Uber can make the condition of your car deteriorate at an alarming rate. It may work for most/some people, but for me it was a Bad Investment, and wouldn't recommend anyone to consider it. Plus there are alot of cars on the road it can be hard*
*for the driver to make money. There are always risks, getting hijacked by criminals posing as clients, sometimes taxi associations take your car.

The Amount of Profit is not worth the Amount of Stress.
I was convinced to join the Platform and It didn't turn out the way people made it sound like a bed of roses. I wish I had done more research.

Fyi : This is my personal experience, if you want to invest in this Pandemic, go ahead 😂
Doesn't matter if the car I used is expensive or not. All Uber cars depreciate so fast. By the time you even want to sell it, it's worth nothing.
I'm taking the car off the Platform. I will continue to use it privately till I trade it in /sell it
