Wierdest Delivery today
So i had a double order and i go and pickup a order at taco bell and as i drive away from pickup i get a message on uber saying “cancel order” “do not go to my house” and of course i was like wtf ? Then i get a call hang up the 1st one thinking its scam or unimportant number then it calls again and i pickup and they were representing themselves as uber saying i had to verify myself in order to continue the delivery and i said ok they go on to say verify number i did then card number and as soon as they said the 3 digits i was like “yea im not giving you that” they got all angry and i thats when i knew they were scamming drivers so i lit up like a match and cursed them out. Then they proceeded to say they were posting my license and photo to tik tok ? I mean wtf ? Has this happened to anyone ?
I have proof of the message the number that called i have it i just dont know how to proceed.
Can i use it for uber ? Seems great deal one year fast charge.
A pleasure
Driving for uber is almost a dream come true. I’ve always held great pride in my driving skills and friends have enjoyed being my passenger, so it’s a delight to be one of the few female uber drivers where I can also be selective. It feels like I’m doing something important, even if the pay could be better, it’s a good step in the right direction. I find my riders are very appreciative, and so are their loved ones.
This is unacceptable…
Hey yall. So I’m outside working and I’ve noticed this. Is this so unacceptable and this is why Uber shouldn’t allow anyone to use the platform. I feel bad for anybody that has to get their food delivered by a person like this 😡
Reporting car for not actually being comfort
I pay extra while traveling for work for a Comfort ride so that I have a clean car and a quiet cool ride. Many times the car is not up to par smelling like weed or cigarettes, recently the driver also blasted music.
Would it be wrong to report the ride? I’m just tired of paying a premium for comfort that doesn’t meet the standards whatsoever. However I don’t want to affect a livelihood to the point that he can’t drive uber. It just shouldn’t be listed as comfort.
How do you know when there will be more than one rider?
I've just started been driving about a month just people not food. I can't tell in the app how many people I will be picking up. I once saw it say Megan + guest but not other time has it said this and it can be 1-4 people. The issue is I like to keep the trunk clear for people with luggage but then I need to keep my personal items on the passenger seat (snacks, paper towels, a drink). Then I'll get to a pickup and its 3 people and one sits in front now I'm quickly grabbing my snacks and paper towels and windex so they can ride up front. How are you supposed to know how many people each ride will be? Are they supposed to put the "guest" amount each time and they just aren't doing it?
What does this time mean?
New to Uber. Took a couple rides and you guys are great! Thank you!
I have a ride coming up and want to know what does the time represent for the Comfort ride? Is this the pick up time or drop off?
How bad is yours?
Pensacola Metro Area
$3.93 unleaded / $4.99 diesel
This is lowest I found in my area, averages around 4.09 / 5.04.
This is not a flex, just depressing 😔 is all this is..
I have zero idea what they are talking about.i have a dash cam .only remarkable thing was I failed to pick up someone who was at a concert and was crowded couldn't find them and they cancelled
Even if it was $35 I’m not doing that. But $18 is ridiculous for 1 hour ride . F that !
Would you give a 1-star for bad behavior by the rider’s guest?
Picked up a rider and two guests. One of the guests were badly behaved. Would you give a 1-star to the rider because their guest behaved badly?
$25,000 a year for commercial insurance!?!?
EDIT: just a note to all of those who don’t live in California, this is not an elected addition, where we can shop around externally for commercial insurance. Uber is forced to provide this and it is taken out of our money whether we like it or not.
Am I wrong? This seems like such a farce. This snapshot is an average part-time week for me:
Uber is taking $500 a week on average to cover “commercial drivers insurance“ here in California due to prop 22.
I find it hard to believe that any company in the world is paying, or is being charged, $25,000 a year for commercial insurance per vehicle for independent contractors to do their job.
Am I missing something here?
This is an affront to both passengers and drivers
Uber just lies and lies they removed premier rides off my preference then says my vehicle is ineligible then now it is but it still hasn’t came back yet
Peek a boo!
Now you see me, now you don't. This is like when you meet a girl online and she sends you fake pictures of herself...
Rider paid $28 Driver makes $12 before vehicle costs.
SFO to Redwood City. $28 paid by rider, 12.73 net for rider. Domino effect in motion.
Is it just me?
Or does anyone else wish they could just know which rider it was??
I feel like it should be obvious but I can’t think, for the life of me, which ride it could have been!
I’ve been getting these type of orders all morning 🙄 just frying my acceptance rate..
Can someone tell me the lore to having a high acceptance rate because with these type of orders, I’ll never have mine high
Well...Well...Well. Time for Waymo to Pack up.
Once again its cheaper to maintain drivers than to have 10 million robots running around the streets. If I were Uber or any other company that want to use A.I. I would invest another 20% in it and stop. A.I. is designed to be a tool and not to replace humans.
Incoming call
I received an incoming call from someone claiming to be from Uber support. Said they received a report from a customer that I didn't match the picture on my account, so they canceled the ride. To confirm my identity, they just confirmed the vehicle, license plate number, and the last six digits of my driver's license number.
After the call, I contacted Uber support, and Uber support indicated that it was not them, and most likely a scam call. What kind of damage can a scammer do with the last six digits of my driver's license number, my plate number, make and model of my car?
