Part of the new cancellation rules are that you have to be driving to the pin and on-time versus driving away, so that helped curb some of the abuse. But yes, I agree.I am sure this had nothing to do with the thousands of drivers (many on UberPeople) that took advantage of the cancellation fees. This pisses me off something fierce and personally I think it's ridiculous however you don't have to go far on these forums to read all the drivers stories on how they got as close to the pin as possible without being seen so they can wait 5 minutes to get their cancellation fees.
I am lowering my acceptance to 7 minutes or less away. Not going to take any chances.
Yeah Lou it's always the drivers fault and never uber's right?I am sure this had nothing to do with the thousands of drivers (many on UberPeople) that took advantage of the cancellation fees.

The problem is if uber doesn't charge the pax they'll never learn to be ready. I've had a few tell me they noticed when uber started charging them when the driver left and they stopped ordering before they were ready.I see that on the site, but the help pages for affected cities still say riders will be charged.
Whether or not they charge the rider doesn't matter to me (that is their business), as long as we are still getting that fee.
If they are trying to be more customer friendly with this policy, it seems to just be pissing everyone off to the point where several people will not wait, giving riders bad service.
Bad move by Uber if this is the case.
Howed the first one work out for you?Payback for the strike. Time to strike again. October 15th sounds good for you Dallas drivers?
