Frequently asked questions
- Can I choose a different location from the one suggested?
Yes. Simply move the pin to the area where you want to be picked up.
- Why is the red area on the map not allowing me to set my pin?
Certain zones have areas where pick-ups are not allowed. These could be cases where the app will block and highlight the zone to indicate that the pin needs to be set in a different location.
- Can I change my location after setting it?
Yes. Rather than cancel your request, simply change your location. Type in a new address or drag your pin to a location on the map, and confirm it. Get more details about how to adjust your location here.
