It has nothing to do with GPS & surge pricing. Uber is plain and simple exploiting its frequent riders. I noticed this for the first time when the fare for a ride from the airport to the same location for me was double of what was displayed for my friend. I tried to test this out and made 3 of my friends at office put in the same pickup and drop off location. Middle of the afternoon, no surge pricing. Sure enough everyone got the exact same fare except for me. Mine was 30% higher. If this isn't proof, I don't know what is!!
