    Is anyone else having issues with Lyft app? I know it's always been crappy always but even after the last few updates, every time you open the app or switch to another app it'll try to put you on a break. Also when you are offline and it shows you requests that haven't been fulfilled, depending...

    OK, I m well aware that calling the Uber provided help number will only get you so far in resolving driver issues. I have found the Uber employees taking the calls to be very polite and able to resolve small issues fairly well but if a driver like myself is in need of being compensated for a...

    Today I had a customer service rep adjust an inaccurate fare of $12, based on some alternate routes and stops, to $39, The ride was Sunday, and I've already been paid for that pay period, so how does this adjustment get added? Does anyone know how it works with this kind of...

    Does anyone know if they will remove the 5/10 requirement for upfront fare details in California? There is no 5/10 in other markets, and I can't think of any good reason to keep it here.

    If a minimum fares 3min or less away ive been doing them lately. I make profit maximum $2.50 out of them, im in a hybrid however i have a protocol as the profit line is so very thin - 1. Rider must be outside waiting as I arrive or i cancel. 2. Rider must not have bags to put in boot or i...
  6. New Jersey
    As a Jersey driver i find it completely unfair that NY drivers are able to drive in New Jersey when we can't in NYC. Some of them even register their car in NJ... We getting pushed out of our own market!! Riders are not happy with them. That's how I find out about NY drivers through my...

    So I just drove someone from Burbank Airport to Tujunga area it was about 13 miles. She was a bus driver so we spoke about pay and blah blah... needless to say when we arrive she shows me she was charged $23 for the trip. Her fare range was $17-$23. I was shown the fare cost $13. My fare range...

    Hey everyone, I am not an Uber driver as of this moment, but the lack of monetary compensation that Uber gives to its drivers still pisses me off. I take the service almost daily and I believe that the drivers deserve better than what they are getting. So, I was thinking of something that...

My referred by code is [edited] Ride share by drivers for drivers. ✌? Up to 200$(Less if you drive less) a month to...

    June 3, 2019 Summertime is coming and gas prices are increasing, like they always do. To add insult to injury, the Illinois gas tax is increasing from 19 cents per gallon, to 38 cents per gallon, on July 1st. We'll be looking at Chicago area gas prices close to $4.00 @ gallon at the pump...

    I am a new driver (both Lyft and Uber). Hear from friends that airport trips are good, but also heard there are a lot of short trips. Can I cancel the trips I don't like? How do you guys make sure the money you make is worth the wait?
  13. Brisbane
    So I started I fare before picking up someone because it started the pick up timer when I was 2 blocks away and took 4min to get to the passenger. So I started the fare to prevent the rider being charged as I wasn't even there yet. Then the prick gave me low stars and dispute the fare and Uber...

    I no longer see in app how many passengers to expect at pickup after accepting trip request. Where should I be looking for this info? In fare details I no longer see a calculation based on the number of people riding. When did I start giving free rides?
  15. Detroit

    UE just updated there drivers earnings system. Is it just me or are drivers now earning less? I’m in Seattle and would average anywhere between $15/$20 an hour.. before any cash tips. Now, since the the new earning system was implemented, I’m averaging $13/$15 an hour. Anyone else notice their...

    On the New Uber App, did anyone notice for the trip breakdown, we cannot see what the passenger paid anymore?o_Oo_Oo_Oo_O - Is this Uber's way to hide how much they take on the percentage of the fare? At least with Lyft his information is still visible! :):):)
  18. New York City
    Went through my fares from today and I was underpaid (Uber took a higher cut than they were supposed to) on all but one. Not sure what that's about, but makes me want to go through them all now.

    Hello Community, Any one try long hauling (taking a longer route to a destination) to make extra money driving Uber/Lyft. As per article below, by doing this you could easily increase your fare received by 20-30%. Personally, I find it dishonest, equivalent to mechanics padding the bill...
  20. Dallas
    Seeing that a lot of new cities are getting the new surge, it is only a matter of time before we get it as well. For the most part this will be a lost for long trips and probably a win for short trips. The highest surge I seen with the new surge was +40 for 93 mile trip. Pretty crappy if you ask...
