    Wondering if anyone else has come across this before, I had a request the other eve to pick up a pax near a metro stop. These are generally bad due to parking restrictions/red zones etc around the metro stops, due this one happened to be right under a freeway, so I was having to go back and...

    Got a request for a pretty decent fare but it was 12 minutes away. Drove 10 minutes towards it and then the pax started bombarding me with text messages asking me to cancel their trip. (of course they also start bugging me to respond immediately too. Girl, I am DRIVING so can’t text back until...

    I had a ride not show up last week on my payout. Now they are saying they don’t have a record for this ride…AT ALL! This was an early morning ride and as a female driver/pax it means that I could simply disappear/be injured by a pax or as a pax without any record of it. Why do they not have a...

    in Uber’s attempt to send me to area and away from surge today at a almost impossible location to get to unless you’re on water…the clock never started for a ride (that I believe to be a fake Uber account—yes, they do that) because the account had a PIN. So your not able to start the ride/clock...

    It's happened a couple of times this week. I usually send a reminder text for the passenger to grab their mask because it's required. Sometimes a passenger will text back and indicate they have no intention to wear masks and since they're vaccinated you can just open the damn windows. I find...

    It looks like the end of an era for the $5 Education Fee for people coming out without car seats, or, most recently, without face masks. New fee structure is $2 + Pick Up distance factor. Ugh.
  8. Delivery
    So I'm a Grubhub newbie. (2 years on lyft). Got my 1st place & pay order. TL:DR customer cancels order after delivery do I get paid? Of course it's some complicated order in italian at a fancy restaurant, and the guy can barely hear me and he keeps repeating back the order in english and I...
  9. Toronto (Ontario)
    This thread is ongoing in another part of the forum, but considering the diversity of religion and culture in the Greater Toronto Area, I'm interested in any specific discussion in our area. https://uberpeople.net/threads/the-ham-shuffle.368244/ As a driver, I have had people going to pot...
  10. Philadelphia
    Here's a beauty of a day. As I'm driving to my Sunday sweet spot, my plan was to stop, get some gas and get into position. Yeah, didn't go so well. As I pulled in to the Shell gas station, I wasn't paying attention. I put in my Uber debit card, entered my pin, then canceled the sale as I...

    I pick up two women going to a movie theater. Younger one is twenty something, older one is fifty something. Very quiet pickup, no sign of trouble. When we get about a block away from the destination, I ask if it’s on the left or the right, because I don’t see a theater. They tell me it’s about...

    These ants are at your service! If they don't do it, who will? What a joke... Shuffle on folks!

    I drop someone off at airport departures, and get a rematch. I’m on my way around to the arrivals lane, when I start getting texts from the guy. He says he’s on the enterprise bus, and on his way over. Then another text - “on my way”. Then a third - “be there soon”. So I’m thinking he knows I...

    When will I learn to obey my own rules? I get a request, and drive to the pick up. The pin is on George Street, but I don’t see anybody. The address says front Street, so I drive through a small parking lot which is up against front Street. Still don’t see anybody. Then I get a text from The...

    Got a request out of town. Pax’s name is “L”. I should have known better. I get a phone call on the way there - I decline it. I get there and it’s a Dark country road at an intersection. The Crossroads. I send the “I have arrived” text. I wait out the timer and try to hit cancel, but I’ve got...
  16. San Diego
    I received my first revised fare notification last night. Uber revised a cancellation fee from $3.75 to $2.25. Where did they pull that dollar amount from? I don't see that amount referenced anywhere in the rate card for the district. Uber claims the incorrect amount was applied. Wtf?
  17. Lyft
    There’s no drop-down list like there is for Uber. It looks like the best I can do is to select other.

    It's no surprise, when I refuse someone for being underage or not having a childseat, that they would ask me to cancel. It happens all the time. But I had a ping for a Lyft ride 13 minutes away. I normally wouldn't take it, but I was using the destination feature, and this ride would have got...

    It's happening more frequently. Rider doesn't show. I let the timer run out. I hit Cancel. Select a reason, and it doesn't go through. Try repeatedly, but it just goes back to the cancel page but doesn't cancel. And then it's stuck there - can't get another ping, and can't call support until it...

    I don't usually chase CTBs unless there's a decent amount. Yesterday afternoon, as I was finishing up driving and heading home the CTB was $17 and I decided to give it a go. Picked up my first rider from Palo Alto Sheraton and took them to downtown. After hanging out there for about 15 minutes...
