So I got a p/t job that pays more than f/t uber, so I stopped ubering. They haven't deactivated me yet. They haven't even sent a warning email. I still owe $100 on the uber fuel card. I wonder what they will do.

I am tempted to use the pax app to request myself for a ride to keep my account active. I certainly have no intention of taking another actual pax for a ride.

I am also tempted to F with uber by going online, accepting trips, but never actually going to pick them up.

Any other ideas on how to screw with uber?

I have a 4.94 for my last 500 trips. Maybe I could give the worst rides possible, although that would mean actually letting a pax in my car, which I don't want to do.

The last time I ignored 3 requests, I was put in a 30 minute timeout. Maybe I could do that over and over and over.....

What if I used the pax app to request myself, and then claim that I assaulted me. That would be crazy.

Ideas?

**EDIT** I haven't given a trip for Lyft for 5 months, but I am still active there too. I've only done 1 Lyft trip.....

Think of the $100 as a parting gift.
I've already thought of that. I just want to give a little back. I've loaded pax umbrella, beach chairs, ice chest and beach bags, just to drive them 10 blocks to their car. All for $3.61. No tip.... Had to unload all that crap too..... And then the sand............

I just thought I could give a little love back......

Just looking for ideas......

Maybe Terminator has a better idea.......

Leave App on at all times ... accept trip ... let Pax wait for little bit then send them the following texts:

You: "Hi this is Uber. You are no longer allowed on the platform"
Pax: " ?? "
You: " Yes, Your account has been permanently suspended due to lack of proper etiquette on tipping your drivers. And also for expecting $ 50 service standards while on $ 5.00 trips."
Pax: "I don't understand... what are you talking about?
You: "Do not request another Uber .... delete the App and call a cab"

Uber is to blame for allowing the abuse to take place ... but the cheap Pax for partaking in the abuse are just as guilty and share in the blame just as much.

Please do this as much as you can until deactivated.

After I stopped driving I would just sit at the computer to trade stocks and leave the app on, accept trips, then make up some lame excuse as to why I had to cancel. I'd, wait for five minutes, then text the PAX and tell them, "can't come get you, a homeless lady fell in the street and I have to help her until the paramedics come. You'll have to cancel." Used that one over and over - just copied and pasted into the next text. PAX were like, "you cancel the ride!" but I always shot back, "Hey, have a heart, I'm too busy helping the distressed!"

Not yet but working my way to it... but I've had an idiot Pax threaten to report me for refusing to take him to his less than 4 miles destination as his neighbor was "Uber Management" ... :)
That was 2 weeks ago...
Like every disgruntled driver I love to think of ways to screw Uber over just like OP stated in his post.
Every time a Pax is pissed off to the point of not using the service again is a step in the right direction in destroying the beast.

I'm guessing that Uber will gladly forgive my $100 to be rid of me.
