Please remain patient and request again after cell services become available.
As internet service is suspended in many areas today, therefore, the drivers are unable to communicate with riders. Now ride-hailing services like Uber and Careem depend on mobile signals and internet availability to communicate with the rider.
Therefore, people, should avoid traveling or may go back to traditional transport system today and use taxis.
