If your access is paused or your record is closed

What GuyWay must tell you, what happens to the car and the money, and how to ask a person to look at it again.

Updated
5 October 2026

GuyWay can pause your platform access, and in the worst case close your driver record. When it does, a notice is written on your phone that says what happened, when, on what ground, and what you can do. A person decides it. No figure about you and no automatic rule can pause or close a GuyWay driver's account.

Where you find it

Open GuyWay Driver. The notice is the first card on Home for as long as it is open, under the title "Your platform access is paused" or "Your GuyWay driver record is closed".

Rules that apply

RuleDetail
A person decidesEvery pause and every closure is decided by a person at the GuyWay desk and recorded under their name
A number never decidesNo figure about you can pause your access, by itself or through any rule
You are told at the timeThe notice is written the moment the decision takes effect, not afterwards, and not only if you ask
A pause has an endIt carries an end date, or a date within 14 days by which a person looks at it again. A pause that runs to its end date lifts by itself. No pause lasts more than 90 days
The appeal is answered in 14 daysA person at GuyWay answers within 14 days of the day you ask, and the answer says why
There is no deadline to appealYou can ask at any time, including after the record is closed. One appeal per notice is open at a time
Nothing is deletedEvery notice, every appeal and every answer stays on your record
Money already owed to youNot affected. Your statement is issued and settled as usual
Slot rent stopsNo slot rent is charged for the days your access is paused. When it comes back, your slot period moves forward by the same number of days
The carA pause does not take the car by itself. The notice says whether you keep it or bring it back, and to whom

If the appeal succeeds

If a pause is overturned, your access comes back the same day the answer is written. The answer is on the same card, with the date.

What GuyWay will not tell you

Who reported something about a ride. A safety report that names the person who made it is a safety report nobody makes twice. You are told what was reported and you are asked for your account of it.
