Today I unplugged my phone charger for an Express pool pax
yep. if you choose express pool, you are getting a no frills kind of ride! No phone charger or water …
Not to my knowledge, Uber keeps all the rating anonymous.
You can override this by swiping up on the screen. It will then give you an option to say you have arrived
This! Uber will never just call you to give you money!
Ugh, disgusting. Was this person drunk? I am so skeptical of giving rides to anyone who looks to have been partying as you know they weren't social distancing!!
I have allowed it but generally I wouldn't. Uber tells the riders that they cannot have more than 3 people so this really shouldn't be an issue but of course every rule comes down on the drivers to enforce.
Do you have an account on twitter? Could you send a bunch of tweets at them? Sometimes social media pressure gets to them. I would be sharing your story EVERYWHERE because this is completely ridiculous.
such an interesting group of probably fake names
Not that it really helps but do you have the names of all the reps you spoke with? Sometimes I use that info in these situations
whats the platform and where is it located?
Here is the thing, tipping is forever ruined on Uber. No matter what they say now, no matter how many campaigns are run, they ruined it by taking a strong no tipping stance in the beginning. Let's face it, people don't love to tip if they don't feel they have to - by Uber saying originally that they didnt have to riders have an eternal "out". Sucks, but that is just how it is.
When they LOVE to chat about themselves.
I have seen multiple companies start like this, there was another one just recently posted on this forum as well that claimed 100% went to driver. IMO it is always a scam.
I don't really see anyway around this though, what is your devised secret weapon then from your spreadsheet? Luckily my car was already paid off and I do put away money for my next one.
I definitely do not keep spreadsheets. I feel like the time it would take me to keep detailed notes on everything would just decrease my per house rate that much more. I don't have the extra time to play games.
Ya, I am in this same boat. I think driver put way too much stock on their rating. Just give a good ride and everything seems to work out.
I think it is 4.6? At least that is the last I knew so unless they have changed it recently.
a stupid incentive that Uber uses to try to get drivers to driver insane hours. I have only ever reached the smaller quests, I have no idea how drivers hit the big ones.
Ya, I am not strong willed enough for Cargo, I would eat all those snacks myself on day 1 😂. Wait maybe I should do it, I would get a kickback for eating my own snacks...
They pay you for giving away the free stuff? How does that work?
I drive a Kia Cadenza for select! Not in Vegas but I would think it would be the same?
