I definitely try to use DiDi when I can atm over Uber, but there are times when DiDi drivers will cancel on you nonstop but Uber will take it first try.So I signed up with both my normal account and my business flyer account and as others reported the points were awarded promptly.
Got around to using Didi today from Sofitel Melbourne to the airport and Uber wanted $57, Didi was $39 and offered me a bonus $10 off (perhaps as it was my first time using them) Driver arrived within 2 minutes and was a great lad in a nice, clean Camry. He drives for both Didi and Uber and prefers driving for Didi. Was really happy with the service and tipped him $5 and left a nice thank you on the app. Was dropped off at the rideshare spot near the Parkroyal as we were picking up a rental car from Sixt. Checked my Virgin app a few minutes later and points had already been credited. Got the full 39 points
For me it’s a horses for courses setup where sometimes Didi won’t work or be the best option but for others it will be and I’ll definitely use them again
I think DiDi pays drivers better atm (basically DiDi is in the lose money for marketshare phase).
