Write to ParloFrequently asked questions
How do I get a taxi in Maiduguri?⌄
Tell the concierge where you are and where you want to go. It replies with a Uber link that opens the app on your route with both points set; without the app, the link takes you to Uber in your browser or to the app store. You order there.
How much does it cost, and how do I pay?⌄
The fare for your exact route is shown in the Uber app before you order, and you pay in the app. Parlo does not set the price, does not book the ride and does not charge you for it.
Does Parlo book the ride for me?⌄
Not in {city} today. Parlo prepares the Uber link with your route; the app finds the driver. Parlo will never tell you a driver is coming or quote a waiting time, because it cannot see either.
What if I do not have the Uber app?⌄
The same link opens Uber in your browser or takes you to install the app, with your route kept. Installing the app is faster for a second ride.
Can I book for tomorrow morning?⌄
Ask the concierge; where a pre-booked fixed-price ride exists it quotes one, and where it does not it says so and gives you the app link to use at the time.
