I'm not alone on this am I? I did a pretty good amount of trips yesterday, 27 to be exact. In fact I beat my personal record of 23 trips in one day, which I set my first week of driving back in February.

They are all showing as processing still. I worked until around 10 last night and then went home.

Yup mine was acting up too, I did the same, foreclosed the app then opened it up n eventually they started showing the amounts.

Glad u did so many rides, it sucked for me, only completed 5 n canceled bunch of pools, Lyft not even a single beep, wonder how everyone else did...

I was in downtown San Diego around Petco park until around 1pm, then made my way further north into Del Mar area, then finished my day around Carlsbad village in the evening. Getting 27 on a Friday or weekend is very doable.

As for pool rides, I always accept them. Most people don't even want a pool ride but end up accidentally requesting them. Or even if they do, I just ignore any other pings along the way and treat the ride as a regular UBERX ride.

27 trips? Those are rookie numbers.

I do 27 trips for breakfast lol

But yeah, the same thing happened to me last night. All of my trips finally updated overnight, but I had to quit early because I was worried I wouldn't get paid.

I find the average user doesn't want to share there ride. Which is totally understandable. And sure uber pool is cheaper than UBERX, but it's better to accept the pool rides than to sit around waiting for regular UBERX rides.

People who wanna pick and choose to much end up making nothing or go
Home blaming UBER because they didn't wanna do there jobs. Whether a ride is a mile or 100 miles, you have a job to do, so do it. Nobody is forcing anyone to drive for uber.

Work smarter not harder. Wait a little longer... Reject all pools. You lose money. You may give a shit load of rides but you are losing money and that isn't smart. You are an independent contractor and not an employee. You don't have to do whatever they say.

How much did you make in those 27 trips and how much time and miles did you put on yesterday?

I gave 7 rides on Uber. Rejected all poos. Made $117. On Lyft, I gave 5 rides and made $53. I worked about 7 hours with many breaks. I gave no rides downtown so my car doesn't get destroyed and I spent $20 in gas. $170-$20=$150. Over $20/hour with many breaks to chill and stretch my back and get food.

Totally agree
We need to take every ride and as good drivers we all get rewarded beginning of January

Do I smell a winter Warm up in the horizon? $ 1.10 a mile is too expensive for a lot of riders now since they got used to the Uber bargain prices. Maybe 0.75 cents will do the trick this time?
What do you think SteveSD?
