An outsourced CSR with a command of the English Language that approaches that of a third-grader answered your query. I would re-submit it with the quote from Uber's policy. If you receive the same answer, put PLEASE ESCALATE in the subject line.

This is solid advice.

compact car about 50cent a mile depreciation and midsize car 69cent a mile depreciation I read that but havent verified if is accurate

 

[renbutler]

At least they spelled accept correctly!

No kidding.

Misspelling a word is forgivable, but in this case, the misspelling actually means the OPPOSITE of the intended word.

Accept means to allow; except means to deny.

That's probably WAY off.

Appraise the vehicle on edmunds.com or another reliable site. And then appraise it again with the same entries, except with 1,000 more miles than what the odometer states. Take the difference between the two appraisals and divide by 1,000. That's your depreciation per mile.

For example, my 2007 SUV "lost" $53 in value if I added 1,000 miles to the appraisal, which meant that it depreciated 5.3 cents per mile.

A newer vehicle will be higher than 5.3 cents per mile, but probably not 50-70 cents.

Too many variables. It's very easy to do yourself:

Keep in mind that if you don't get reactivated you need to file for unemployment and you will win. Everyone wins. Just because they call us independent contractors doesn't mean we are, especially when it comes to filing for unemployment. They have specific forms for Uber drivers where we document the reasons we consider ourselves employees.

I hope it doesn't come to that and you get back in but just in case.

^^ignore that

Clearly, we are independent contractors, and not because Uber says we are.

I wouldn't be doing it if the job resembled anything other than independent contracting.

How much is Uber paying you to post that dribble here ?

How much is Uber paying you to post that dribble here ?

1.) The word you're looking for is "drivel."

2.) Your response doesn't get any less stupid over time. The easiest way to realize that: over half the things I say about Uber these days could not be considered positive. I almost never drive anymore because of the ridiculously low rates.

So, you're going to need a better schtick, because this one isn't working for you. Stop ruining the thread.

Back on topic.

Nope, I definitely meant dribble cause that's what it is, dribble, stuff hitting the floor hard.

And you don't have to drive for Uber, you don't even have to post here about Uber since you aren't a driver but you still do. That's your choice.

It doesn't mean people have to listen to your dribble.

 

[mitchnj1]

What was your rating? Maybe that had something to do with it?

 

[renbutler]

Nope, I definitely meant [blah blah blah double down on my error blah].

And you don't have to drive for Uber, you don't even have to post here about Uber since you aren't a driver but you still do. [what the hell does that mean?] That's your choice.

It doesn't mean people have to [blah blah blah mis-used words deleted]

You can disagree with me all you want, and against all the evidence -- I don't care.

But as soon as you try the tired old shtick of "nobody could conceivably disagree with me unless they were paid to do so," you show your inability to engage in a reasonable, mature disagreement. Instead, you lash out like a wounded dog.

It doesn't work, so try a new tack. Deal?

Relax, there's no need to be such a pre-Madonna about this. Clearly your post peaked his interest, for all intensive purposes, you're getting mad over nothing...you really sound uneducated when you misuse the English language so badly

 

[UberOk]

Well I was reactivated today! Thanks everyone for the advice!

 

[abe54321]

I wrote an ESCALATE letter to Uber, and still they didn't reactivate me. I got deactivated for cancellations, I told them I wasn't receiving the multiple warning emails and they didn't care. I guess it's over for me.

The problem is I have rent, car payment, and child support payments to pay and I just lost my main source of income, but I can't even get them to send a message that isn't automated. Do people file for unemployment after getting deactivated?

The best thing to do is go down to the nearest physical office.

 

[OC Lady Uber Driver]

So what happens is CS responds to you from within the app *even when you've been deactivated*. It's stupid, I know. You'll need to go visit your nearest Greenlight hub to talk to them about possibly get reinstated.

Lessen cancellations by confirming rider pick-up locations and make sure to go offline when you need a break/restroom/eating or any host of other things you need to get done during the day. And time outs are just as bad as cancellations.

The local partner email told me not to even come into the office in the email.

Also, it looks like the Uber office is at a Break Masters here.
