Tonight the app was automatically accepting rides for me. I wasn't receiving the decreasing blue circle showing the location and estimated distance I was away. It automatically accepted a pool trip for me and after heading to the location for the first (a no show) I get a second which I picked up and the app just kept adding rides. I cancelled three rides dropped the rider off at her location and shut down for the night. I was very pissed. Wonder if this happened to anyone else. I decide which rides I accept not Uber.

Uber lies lawsuits and this one right here is a definitely lawsuit. Like someone else has stated. I decided when to accept. Not uber. Forcing ridesign on us seems like we are being treated like employees not like independent contractors....

Keep them coming uber keep them coming. All that little investment m ok net will be gone before you know it.

Can't wait for Fare, Safeher, Google to come to town. And blow them out of the water. Uber does not deserve us as drivers.

SafeHer is illegal and will never be operational

I hope you're wrong and Safeher manages to rollout as they plan in the Fall. I've asked to be part of their team, should they actually come to Chicago. I bring it up to all my female passengers, and they are very excited at the prospect of female-only drivers. I could make a killing on referrals

Me to. I identify as a woman when I drive (that way I don't have to use turn signals)

This has been a CRAZY summer for the technology/apps of both UBER and LYFT. Over the past 2 weeks, Lyft has not been showing me how far away the ride-request is coming from, about 30% of the time.

Also, I try to log-off and the app won't do so reliably. I restart the phone and then see a message saying that I've missed a request. Yesterday, my acceptance rate was 27%...though I only ignored 1 out of 6 ride-requests.(It was 26 minutes away). I think the system thought I was online all day and night! It's a good thing I never play the Lyft games of Power Driver Bonus, Guarantees, etc..

Yesterday, the app was delayed when giving pax rating, at that time I was getting requests, I accept, but app still delayed and the ping sound continues, wtf, accept I guess never registered. Two trips later I get message I declined 2 requests. . .on line for 5.5. . .on the guarantee, shut down early. . . Won't qualify for hourly g, very frustrating walking a tight rope on the hg's, work so hard and deliberate with the app, and that happens, I'm thinking it's their servers

Ya me too say o.oo
Me three. Sorta. None of my trips are being posted. Except 1 and it posted out of order.

I worked the morning shift all seemed fine. Then started back abt 4p. Issues started abt 6p. Because I had several rides that posted then nothing . None of my rides posted, BUT I see where it tells me how many rides I have completed, time online , and my ratings are tallying. WTF?

I want to hang it up for tonight, but I want to hit a goal. Not sure if I have, since we are driving blind. But this mess us making me not care anymore.

These app updates every 3 days, and causin more problems than enhancememts. My gripe with the app updates is that they tell us we have to update the app. Before proceeding to go online, BUT NEVER tell us what has changed. That drives me crazy!!!

"Driving blind" well said. Driving blind and trying to reach a goal, just an addition mental hurdle to endure.

For me, all the fares are saying $0.00

Anybody else dealing with this?!?!
"Why did I drive Uber today?" Is a question I keep asking myself. The boost isn't worth the level of frustration I've dealt with in exchange.

My fares are also showing as $0.00 after 6pm. I've emailed multiple times and have yet to get a response.

So I decided to cash out the amount before 6pm and go back to my usual Lyft rides............. and ((drumroll)).......

Instant pay isn't working either. The funds were not deposited BUT are no longer showing in the back end of my account.

This is utterly and completely ridiculous.
