  1. Advice
    So I'm fairly new, 2 months in with uber/lyft. I see I lot of people 1-staring passengers left and right on this forum. My question is do you guys face any retaliation from riders after 1 staring them? You as a driver have to rate them immediately after dropping a passenger off before accepting...

    I got a one star rating (my first) after I was not able to pick up a pax yesterday because they were not at the location and were waiving to me from a place that was unreachable across Kapiolani Blvd during rush hour. I had to cancel the ride and later I found that I had my first one star...

    I picked up this gentleman and his wife in Old City around 1pm today. He was one of those front runner Philadelphia fans that doesn't know jack shit about basketball and is clearly along for the ride. He had the Eastern Conference ALLLLL figured out. Here was his plan: Pax: "Well, we win today...

    Had a funny little episode last week, with a young woman losing her cell phone and the drunk boyfriend cussing me out, returned the phone and charged the account because boyfriend was a cheap A-hole. https://uberpeople.net/threads/my-1star-for-the-week.294041/ Today I got an email..... a...

    So there is the big question, if you give a pax a 1 star rating (or vice versa) then are you blocked from being matched with them again? I have visited the Hub locally, and they told me that is the case. I visited the Hub on a different day, spoke with a different rep, and was again told that...
  6. Washington DC
    Picked up Ricardo at 2am, middle of nowhere ten minutes away. I drive directly to him (no u-turns) and halfway there get called asking how long I’ll take. I point out it says five minutes on my app and he hangs up. I get there and he’s predictably late. I checked his passenger rating and...

    pax: My girlfriend has high anxiety, she hates riding alone. She won't do it unless it's a woman driver. me: That's too bad, most drivers are men. Must be tough. pax: She just keeps cancelling rides until she gets a woman driver. me: Dang. What does she do when she's out in the burbs and...

    Picked up two couples at a bar; the b-witch that ordered the Uber called like five times asking how far away I was, I said 4 miles. So she asks: how long will that take? I pulled over and did some quick calculations. Anyway the rest of the group knew she was being a total B so the other woman...

    Each time I pick up someone from an illegal pick-up area, especially in the CBD, I try to educate them about the illegal spots where they shouldn't stand when requesting a ride. Every one of them said that they didn't know about that and they thanked me for letting them know. Uber is lying to...

    I stood on the sidewalk with my suitcase in tow. Off to the airport I had to go. He drifted the corner up on two wheels. Screeched to a halt I was getting the feels. Without a word I heard the trunk click. Threw in my bag thinking "geez what a dick". I jumped in the back seat of his tiny...
  11. Washington DC
    I just looked at my stats and it has dropped to 4.79. I have absolutely no idea why. I almost always give only 5 stars. People have been great and I don't see a reason to give a lower rating. Those passengers that have brought me to 4.79 have effected my future passengers. From this point on...
  12. Complaints
    Ok, so this is my first post. I'm very new to this forum thing and new as an Uber driver. But I hit a bit of an issue with one of the riders I had. A few things you should know first: I live in North California but I work/drive in Los Angeles which is about two hours a day, Wednesday thru Sunday...
  13. Advice
    I'm only 6 months into this Uber ordeal, and I also know Team Travis could give a flying rat about what pax ratings are (but God forbid we 4.6, or else, banhammer!). Still, I think rating the pax is a benefit to fellow drivers (except the noobs - they'll accept Hitler if it means keeping their...
