Cost is the same for riders. Drivers get money taken out. Suposedly the money taken out goes to other drivers in the area not in destination mode. But at 3 in the morning when i use it there arnt drivers around my area. So likely into their pockets.
Uber Lyft race does not bother me as long as i get the cancelation fee. Problem is with both there are requirements to actually get the cancelation fee to the driver. Time waited b4 cancel or actually ariving b4 cancel.
Not a bad idea... However i have found at some point they just stop sending you request if u refuse to accept.
I do admire your Bold initiative though.
On thing i have done to spite the system is accept Pool rides and refuse to pick then up (specifically out in the suburbs where i am from at 1 in the morning) no way i accept a reduced fair that i only end up making back if we find somebody going in your direction this late. Most od the time i find these pook rides to be short jerkers who can't afford the extra dollar. But cost me 1.
I refuse to cancel and make them get a cancel fee. Its petty but knowing i wasted their money the way they waste mine with their short cheap fair rides makes me happy. Btw. I have found that Pools never tip. How can they when they cant afford the extra dollar for their own full car.
Funiest thing is alot of times uber won't even let me use Destination because lack of drivers in the area. Which is stupid because me going in 1 direction is better than nobody going in any.
Dont know what to do. I am seriously frustrated now by being skimed going home after a long day going wherever their system sent me.
Exactly the same. Crystal lake area for me. Been draged all the way to rockford and Joliett b4. Chicago as well (but there is good money there) now i cant even get paid reasonably to get home when they can send me wherever they want. This may be my breaking point.
In a job where i am not able to chose where i work. Get draged all over the chicagoland area. Now i cant even use destination mode to get me home from these random places i end up. Being an hour and a half outside the city. And getting draged in constantly. That drice back home was alot of my income. Especially late on friday and Saturday.
I do not know how they can rationalize this policy when they already limit destination mode. I would 100% understand if maybe u used it more than 1 or 2 times then to do this. But most of us are using it to get home.
I hate to admit it. But i think this will drive off drivers. Not being able to get yourself home without being scamed out od 30% (when they already are taking close to 40% of the fair. Just makes no sense.

Notices the surges as well last weekend. Typically 3/10 has become 3-6..... Even in Friday and saturday nights.
Tittle needs to be updated because they have increased the rate to 40%. What a fucking joke![]()

Btw just did the math they took well over 30%
14.14 + 8.93 = 23.07
23.07 x .3 = 6.92
Basically an extra 2 bucks
Closer to .39 %
