There is nothing "hacking" about asking your driver for his log in information.
I can't imagine this being a lucrative scam. Some dude is standing at a street corner, requesting rides, messaging the driver for login information, and canceling the ride? Then the dude has to come up with a untraceable bank account, and re-create an Uber account all over again.
Doesn't seem like a scalable business. Might as well send out 100,000 emails pretending to be a Nigerian prince.
People look for choices, low fees, and speedy delivery and I don't see how adding another layer helping any of these.
Restaurants can sign up for these services easily, so most restaurants I buy from support all the major ones. I've never felt any inconvenience ordering from a restaurant I want.
Are they even functioning anymore. The last few times, I had no driver accept my requests. Called Uber instead. I have no time to be dealing with their internal problems.
So many drivers who know nothing about investing or the stock market fell for this. They were fooled into thinking this was a huge privilege. They felt like they were finally included. Thousands of drivers who don’t have cash to spare. The truth is that only the founders and investors made all the money and no one else.
This is Uber's end goal, right? They wanted to be more than a taxi company, so they were gonna take over the courier/delivery industry. Remember the Uber Airport thing with drones?
And...? This isn't a surprise to anyone. Oldest story in the wild. From taxi days. Just a stupid article that just covers some basic but will get lots of clicks because the headline sounds cool.
It’s all about the delivery. “Don’t wanna die today” part will come out slightly funny but with a little sense of realism. I actually think this is a perfect response
thank you for the education. Much appreciated. A new user here of RG here.
If Uber is taking 50~70% of fares how are they unprofitable? Is this completely a flawed business model? This is fascinating, because when you think about it a minute, this "industry" has existed in the form of taxis and limos. and they were profitable. What went wrong here.

No, it won't. It offers no benefits.

I guess they do have their billions.
I just checked. Thankfully, no one has made a "covid compliant" sticker yet, but there are similar.

Uber is mandating it, so this makes sense
The fact that they built and offered this form means many users are submitting this complaint. That's why they made it easier for people to submit it.
Sad that drivers aren't wearing a mask. Politics aside, why not protect yourself? You see strangers all day and night.

Full-throated? Like singing or screaming?

Did Trump kill it. He doesn't believe in innovation or technology. or rather doesn't understand any of it.
You mean like this?
Officers Investigate Uber/Lyft Lot Schema/Scam at Orlando International Airport
How do you report a bad driver? Just give one-star rating.
The keyword is “politely.”

Yeah, the premise was supposed to be that the driver was speeding, perhaps weaving down a busy city streets.
I feel speeding is a nature that some drivers have and some do not. It almost feels like driver professionalism has nothing to do with it.
And it’s not even always about going over the speed limit, it can just be accelerating uncomfortably fast on a side road for example.
Hahaha, you are right. I was confused. when I read the other message.
but think about it though. If the driver has to initiate the convo, the driver has to say, "what's my name?! Say my name, b**tch!" LOL.
Yes, but the question is more to do with HOW TO ask.
