GrabBike will temporarily be stopping operations effective today, February 4, 2016.We stand firmly on our belief that we have created an innovative solution to the country’s transportation problem and we are working towards finding a way to continue providing it to the community. We’re hopeful that the authorities will reach a positive decision regarding the possible regulations to the service.
We’ve done this before with the support of our loyal Grabbers and we hope to be able to do it again with GrabBike. #LegallyGrab #GrabPH
