U-hop Shuttle Service - App base business opportunity in the Philippines

U-hop, a new app based shuttle service in the Philippines. App base transportation services are booming business in the Philippines, it started with Uber, then came Grab Car, and here a much more larger capacity vehicle which is U-hop.

U-hop's vehicle requirement is seven seater and up. Should be mini van to large vehicle. The concept is like UV-Xpress where there are certain routes only of the car. Unlike Grab Car / Uber, where it acts like a taxi using private vehicle.

U-hop has multiple passengers and they need to register to U-hop as a member. Same thing with the operator. U-hop validates the identity of the passengers as well as the driver for safety reasons.

As for members, this is a good choice if the concern is security and convenience, U-hop even have promos for unlimited rides in a daily basis. But as the word promo means, it will expired at certain time. You can visit U-hop's site to check what are the available services and promos you can avail as a member.

There will be a joining fee for operators to be in the loop with U-hop app service, you can drop an inquiry letter to U-hop to know more of the details. I won't be disclosing any rates/fees here since it might change prior to writing of this blog. I was able to send them inquiry since I'm also interested to join as operator, but comparing the joining fee to other app base vehicles is far costly in U-hop compared to others.

Updates:
VIP Membership as Operator:You have to pay P75,000 device fee (GPS, etc.) upon termination of contract it you are no longer with them. The 75,000 is refundable.

Their main office is in Ortigas:

1105 East Tower Philippine Stock Exchange (Tektite Towers), 
Exchange Road Ortigas Center Pasig, 
Metro Manila Philippines 1605

You can reach U-hop and contact them if you have any more questions.

Junk foods for you and for me

Most of us love eating junk foods especially the kids and my kid is one of them. Oh how she loved eating chocolate like me. Green & Black's Organic Chocolate Bar, 70% Cocoa, 3.5-Ounce Bars (Pack of 10) It is sad but true that most of our kids today have junk food on their diet. These foods are loaded with high calories, fats, and sugar, but very low in nutrition.

Globe DSL Promo Upgrade - Free Phone

After having some trouble using GLOBE DSL residential line. Finally, I was able to upgrade to micro business for the longest time, GLOBE is not allowing an upgrade from residential to micro business not unless your account is seven months old. Residential connection is fine if you are using maybe 2 to 3 devices, give that the plan is already 5Mbps. But I finally give up using the residential line since it cannot accommodate up to ten units of computer. GLOBE admittedly that there is a bandwidth cap size with their residential lines, which is really bad :( Let's see what will happen, I'm getting now 8.5Mbps max, hopefully pinging some IP address won't give me some request time out. I badly need internet connection now a days, though I'm no longer working at home, it is still a necessity for studying and side projects. I was using PLDT back then, but there are some issues that's unfix-able by PLDT alone. Though I must admit PLDT still has good bandwidth compar...

LONG DISTANCE love affair

It's pretty hard to keep any long distance relationship. One partner may feel insecure, cause he/she might not know what the other person is doing on the other side of the world.
