  I saw in the news that female Uber drivers make less than males?? What's up with that?

  Drivers - do you have any experience with this? Do women get paid less per hour than males?

  This is so accurate! It's bad that I laughed a little bit, but passengers don't understand what their ratings mean to drivers. Rate 5 stars people!

   5 years ago in  More and more companies copying Uber's surge pricing model. MoviePass is a good example

  Movie pass sucks. And the reason surge pricing does not work is because they already offered customers the lower price without it. With Uber, didn't surge pricing exist from the beginning? It was more transparent than now, with numbers like "2X" and "10X" stated prior to taking a ride.

   5 years ago in  Scam? I requested a Lyft the other day, and the driver saw me, and drove away. The app registered that he had "arrived" and I was charged a "no show" fee.

  That makes sense, if Uber paid better they would be able to hire a higher quality of drivers instead of having bad ones like this slip through the cracks. And ultimately it would lead to a better experience for passengers too, because they feel more safe knowing the driver is responsible.

  But aren't scheduled rides not guaranteed? Does that mean the price isn't guaranteed either?

   6 years ago in  Does my uber driver know that I requested a pool ride? Are they mad about it?

  ohhh i didn't know that! i just thought drivers got paid less because the passengers paid less. ive heard of drivers being upset about it in the past though, i wonder if this is a new thing they changed
