How to get a job

Generally speaking jobs are advertised on the Voxer Ezy Transfers channel. If you see a job that you are interested in then please send a private message to the person that posted the job. Do not reply in the channel. If you are busy then simply press the heart button next to the message which indicates to the poster that you are interested in the job. Then when you are free send them a message.

Please note that 3rd parties also post jobs (which you can do to) so if that happens then they may have their own set of expectations. Any jobs not posted by us we are not responsible for in anyway.

Voxer Settings

We suggest that you change the notification settings to “extreme” so that you are notified every time a job is posted. Often the first person to reply gets the job. However in saying this we try to match drivers personalities to passenger personalities. So there is no guarantee that first in is first served. Please note that we strictly enforce the no replying in the jobs channel.

Allocating you a job

Once we have allocated the job to a driver then we will simply send you the job via text message. It will contain a link to the job details. Click on the link. You will need to review the details and then click either accept or decline at the bottom of the job. Please note that the sms is sent from the SMS id “EzyTransfers”. Please note that sometimes we will send a job to you without it appearing in jobs channel. This is because we believe that you are the best person for the job &/or you’re just awesome. You are under no obligation to accept the job. If you don’t want or can’t do the job just simply click decline.

Please note you have 4 hours from the time we send you the job to accept the job. If you do not do this the job will be taken from you and allocated to another driver.

• If you accept the job click the green accept button located at the bottom
• Once you have accepted the job you will be taken back to the job details and the full details of the job will appear.

Looking After Passengers

When the booking is confirmed you will have all of the customers contact details. You are expected to send a message to the customer no less then 24 hours to introduce yourself. We suggest something like this “Hello Sharon. I will be your driver tonight to the Gold Coast. When you have collected your bags please send me a text message and I will pick you up from the designated picked up area. Regards Paul”. Remember people use us because they want certainty that someone will be there to meet them. So introducing yourself is important to reinforce this. The designated pick up areas will be stipulated on your booking confirmation. On the customer confirmation passengers are encouraged to reward drivers who provide excellent customer service, by way of tip. Please note that on all jobs there is a minimum requirement that you have at least 1 small bottle of water per passenger.

• No Shows or cancellations under 1 hour you will be paid 60% of the total of the booking up to a maximum of $100. To receive the cancellation fee you would need follow the below instructions.

Here are the steps you must follow:

• Call us and advise us of the issue on 0405 407 828
• We will issue you a cancellation code which guarantees you will get paid.
• You need to take a screen shot of you phone log to show you have tried to call the passenger
