Abalo, a father of 5, relies on his Grab delivery income and is now worried he may be unable to provide for his children’s education because of the gradual decrease in pay from Grab.
“We were hit during the pandemic but we’re proud to have served and support the economy during those times,” Abalo said in Cebuano. “If we earned enough gems from trips, we could exchange that for money. For example, 55 gems used to be worth P120,” Abalo said. In response to the processing of permits, the company admitted that the drivers needed to process the permits on their own.
A former Grab delivery driver, who wishes to be named “Dino” for safety reasons, claimed that he was banned from the app right after asking for a meeting with the riders and management on Saturday, November 5.
