Ridesharing service Uber has been gaining popularity especially in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. In order to expand their coverage, Uber is giving out free rides to people in PJ. What must you do to get them?

"We know you’ve been looking for a safe, reliable and efficient way of moving around your neighbourhood. With the increasing traffic congestion and lack of parking spaces, even making a quick trip to 1Utama for some shopping or stopping by The Good Batch for a coffee becomes a pain. "

"As a service that is built around helping communities move around safely and efficiently, we want to bring that convenience to you… in a big way. And to showcase our commitment to your neighbourhood, we’re giving away free rides so that you can try out the Uber app, at absolutely no cost to you!" - Uber Malaysia

Step 1: If you haven't downloaded Uber, download it from the Google Play Store or the iOS store. Register and sign up for it.

Step 2: Apply "BUFREERIDES" as the promo code. It doesn't matter if you're a new or an existing Uber user.

Step 3: To make sure that you enjoy free rides, you need to ensure that your trip starts from OR ends at these locations in Petaling Jaya. PS: If you're thinking of extorting this 'kaw-kaw' from Genting to PJ, this promo is worth up to RM20 only.

For your ride to be free, however, your trip must either start OR end in Bandar Utama, TTDI, Damansara Uptown, Damansara Perdana or Mutiara Damansara.

Step 4: Another thing to remember is that the promo lasts till 18 January 2015!

Rides are valid from 7 January 2015 to 18 January 2015 only.

Step 5: Enjoy your free rides!
