Dropping a pin on PCH for the pickup point, wait till you get there... nobody shows up. Call them... Oh, I'm at the fr&*(&jing Top of the World. 20 minutes to pickup them up, put 50,000 miles on your brakes coming back down, $12 ride to a restaurant. Grrrrrrrrr

Wait at pickup point, Cancel at 5 minutes and collect No Show Fee. Need to teach them, That's a NoNo

^^ That
You have now taught that pax that this behavior is acceptable..

 

[k4ever]

I dont call anybody. If they are not at the pick up location, its their problem, not mine.

Of course if its a 45+ 2.0x and over, I will call you the second Im there and I dont see you.

OP is Select, so essentially a 2.5x'ish X. Also, pax that do this, usually call driver and say something lame like, I don't know why, but it put my pin way off...

Is the cancellation fee different on select or is it a fixed 3.75?

$7.50 for Select. $15.00 if you drive a GENESIS

So you would have made more if you had waited and cancelled then. I think you said somewhere that you drive a genesis.

After the recent pay raise for Uber X, SELECT is just ~2.3X

It ranges between 2.1X and 2.5X depending on the length of the trip, at least down here in OC.

If the pax is Select, why the hell he's telling they're getting smart? There's no point in dropping the pin wrong if there's no surge.

Nobody wants to pick him up from his real location?

 

[fubermotion]

Yeah, I don't pickup in the mountains of Laguna unless its a known airport ride. My 9 minute pickup turned into 20 minutes. I thought it was going to be an airport run.

 

[elvet139]

I’ve had two fake surges out there. Blood red to 3.0 and nothing. Only one base trip to jwa

What does this have to do with Laguna Beach clientele though? One guy played you doesn't mean the entire town became a trickster.

Good point. Guessing it was a Surged X, or pax too far up in the hills and get cancelled on a lot.

Yeah I try to avoid going up there too. It rough on the car.

Hollywood Hills probably worse...imo.

That was yesterday at the AIRPORT. I arrived saw the destination. Double checked the clock, slow rolled to the entrance, and cancelled. The cancel fee was more than the destination.
