Why don't you call there and see if they will even take you. Carey has high standards and doesn't hire noobs. They will most likely tell you to take a long walk off a short pier.

 

Lol no disrespect but it seems like every other day you are looking for the best base or secrets to maximize your luxury TLC vehicle here.
This is what people here warned you about... besides... didn't you say you had a good job and just wanted Uber for side money and networking or hobby??

 

I do but I want to buy a house and my job isn't paying that much because I'm technically entry level in a finance company. I want to maximize my earnings with this as well. Also, the clients for these companies are much higher up than Uber or Juno clients. I can get lucky from it with making good money as well

I tried calling but they said to show up at the office

 

Carey is not at all what they used to be right along with companies like Commonwealth and EmpireCLS. They are all doing relatively poorly in this new environment.

Carey only wants certain vehicles and you gotta have 1.5 million in insurnace, but they are slow so it may not help you much.

If you have the equipment for luxury bases just sign up with 2 or 3 at the most and establish a relationship with the dispatchers so you can run your schedule the way you need to.

Try to get some privates and it will level out for you.

 

Much higher??
Nope... I've dropped riders off in NJ and long Island and they live in multi million dollar mansions. The rich use whatever services fit there particular needs at that particular time.

 

I just went to the office and u gotta pay $1500 to get in and on top of that pay $1000 per month to stay with them and you get 65% commission plus 18% gratuity

 

That should answer your own question. Not worth it

 

You should have done your homework before buying a brand new Mercedes Benz.

 

I use to drive for someone who has lots of cars and he get jobs from carey i do get them directly threw the app but i gotta tell u this its correpted compnay u should take care of the dispatches so u can get jobs i meant good jobs not city airport once plus the fees i belive its 1000$ a month and u get paid every 2 weeks

 

I'm glad a couple of people on this thread have pointed out the scumbag dispatchers/extortionist you'll have to pay off at these bases

 

Ah, this is the guy with the Benz, and the secret Facebook group. I hope it is going well for you. You'll find your base soon, just keep searching.

Does your car qualify for them?
E class may not be luxury enough.

bro go to the nearest honda dealer and trade that benz for a 13 accord. Whats best for you , driving a benz and looking for parking in the hood or driving a hooptie and parking in your HOUSE!

working in a bank with a background in finance you should know that 60% of homeowners in NY are not driving luxury vehicles. your coned bill is gonna surge 3.0x every month lol

be humble, save the 20% of the value of the house that you want so you can afford the mortgage, in the future you can use the home equity to buy your benz back with a nice 2% home equity loan

thanks me later

 

Damn Carey use to be the Best . I know guy he owned three radios there used to bank over 1500 a day clean . Last time I heard they struggling too

 

I'm getting allot of negativity. But technically I'm not paying anything for the Benz. It's all paid for. I have no expenses for it except gas and maintenance. There's no financing I have to worry about. I just don't like to see my new car being wasted on Uber u know? Why not aim higher if there are chances?

 

Bruh. Your car has been wasted ever since you slapped TLC plates on it.

 

Did you try Dial on Ave X and E 21st street in Brooklyn? They will accept you with uber base. I was there a few weeks ago, when I was trying to decide which car to buy.
I threw away the list of cars that they accept, but E class may qualify, don't remember.

 

Dial is shit, not what it used to be

 

Yeah dial7 has now cheapskates clients

 

Not my taxi base bro.. my taxi base makes money still lol. I'm talking about dial car Dannyyellowcab

 

aluber1968 xyz doesn't require 1 million liability because they aren't luxury. They are a black car base.

 

That is what they told me in their office. Maybe they are trying to protect themselves.

 

My advice is try Uber black , go to the airport, there are plenty black cars in the lot, some E class. Put in some black work and see how it feels. Have you done any rides yet?

 

I've done Uber Black but it isn't the best because the rate isn't that good since they take so much and on top of that, the wait is not worth it. I have one base I'm working with and it's great but trying to add another good one to make it perfect. I did Uber Black but I don't like it cuz most customers go to a very short distance

They are on par with most black car bases. Stop by there to get the info.
Ubernyc stated that they are chit, might have to agree with him, so are majority of bases these days.
Dial doesn't charge a weekly fee and you can be uber based.
XYZ requires their base and 1 million liability and E class is not acceptable.

The rates I like is for example:
LGA <-> NYC : $60
Jfk <-> NYC : $85
Newark <-> NYC: $100
Toll and parking is not included in these charges.

 

I get a Suburban or Yukon every time I try to request black. Im not sure there are many luxury cars doing uberblack anymore. So basically stay away from suburbans and yukons and you should corner the limited market.

 

So, yellow cab rates is what you like which are done in camry and sienna's. You are very funny. Luxury bases charge way more than yellow cab rates. So if you're happy with yellow cab rates... In a Benz...

 

No one said it will be by driving Uber. I'm doing apps right now while being a full-time online college student and full-time security gig during the weekdays.
I'm not using this chump change for a house nor do I expect it to get me in one. I have plans to exit shortly. Read what I said in clear print THIS BUSINESS CAN'T SUSTAIN that anymore.

Now I see what Glen is saying here. Assuming and speaking and thinking about another mans pockets.

I was being positive here. Jesus

I don't mind Glen, cause he has Anger issues . Lmao

 

I mean I didn't have intentions of making it tlc ... I ended up doing it and it's too late to turn around. I am not making a loss. I am generating revenue by working or I'm making nothing but losing nothing if I just keep the Benz so the car isn't the problem.

You are mistaken . You already lost 30% from the value of the car when you first bought it and then when you slapped TLC plates on it. Now you are stuck in this game. Many black drivers are full time , so in your situation was better off to be doing X in a used up camry or accord for the extra cash.
I can't see an easy way out of this one for you. I also don't think you can afford to keep a luxury car with an entry level job. You probably don't pay rent and still live with parents, but still not a wise decision to have bought this car for personal use.

 

Nothing is perfect in this Buisness ,if your saying you already work with a good base just stick with it, doesn't make sense to jump around from base to base and be prepared once the new laws kick in for Long Island, WE, upstate, depending on what towns will allow uber without the TLC licenses, insurance etc it's only going to get worse

 

Listen guys don't get off topic, the fact that I have this car and everything is my problem. I've already said this but idk what's wrong with u guys, I am not paying anything for the car and I haven't paid it in full. It's called being smart... I just want recommendations for a good base

 

They are Jealous you have that car men. Must of them have beat up Camrys. Some of them don't even own them and rent which is worst. Lmao. Just do your homework and Work in style..... just don't do X or Poops on that please

Of course ... I would never do Uber X or pool. I am even tired of Uber Black rates ...

Do you mind explaining how one can not pay in full and not owe any payments on a car. Even hints would be appreciated.

 

By boosting it?
