I’m wondering if it’s worth it to give someone a well-deserved a bad rating, if they’re only going to turn around and do it to you once they see it.

Uber says they won't get to see their updated rating until they've rated you. But who cares? If they deserve it, give them one. Don't let them hold imaginary stars over you.

Those stars are my life... How dare you sir how dare you

In some cases, the rider can later change a rating that he or she has already submitted about the driver.

As a result, the following scenario is possible:

1. Driver gives a low rating for Rider.
2. Rider gives a high rating for Driver
3. Rider discovers the low rating he or she received from Driver by the timing of the change to the Rider’s average rating.
4. Rider becomes angry and engages in ‘revenge rating’ to change their already-submitted rating for the driver to “1-star” by following method: In rider’s app menu, “Your Trips” / “I had a different issue” / “How do I change the rating for a driver?” / then, select a different rating value / “next” / “done.” (The rating is then updated in real time.)


Uber claims that “no one” can change Ride ratings after they have been submitted, based upon the evidence I have seen in action, it appears that, Uber’s statement is not true.

Approximately one year ago, I mentioned my findings (described above) to Uber on multiple occasions. However, each of the Uber reps I communicated with acted like they did not understand this problem, and chose to ignore it.

As a result, it appears that this system glitch continues to exist as part of the Uber app today.

If you have taken any rides with Uber you can see that you can easily change a drivers rating and you can watch the overall rating drop immediately. The system is designed in the riders favor.

Interesting. Tell me more. ?

The driver has to rate the pax right after the trip is over and can't make any changes. The pax can change ratings whenever they feel like it, even months later.

The stars no longer mean anything since Uber reactivates drivers for whatever.

Thanks, but I was being sarcastic - hence the wink at the end of my post. The 'system' is designed to favor the passenger in many ways, including ratings.

It’s absolutely worth it.

There’s a limited supply of passengers that uber & Lyft fight over.
But a plentiful supply of drivers happy with low wages while destroying their vehicle. Go figure ?‍♀

I’m pretty sure uber doesn’t really care what drivers say about their pax clients.
Conversely, if their pax client claims the driver sneezed ? without covering his mouth, he’s deactivated

I 1 starred a Lyfthole yesterday and she was able to learn about it and retaliate by changing her rating within an hour. Uber isn’t as aggressive about making it obvious to the customer which driver it was. Lyft customers are going to start getting some very bad ratings from me until Lyft learns to hide my ratings from morons properly.

The key to one starring Lyftholes is to do it right before the 24 hour window is up. After 24 hours the Lyfthole is no longer able to retaliate.

But how? I don't see a way to go back in and change it later. You can't even rate the first time unless acceptance rate is above whatever number.

 

[TXqwi3812]

But how?

You have to be logged in.

Go to rides and click on the ride. That is where you can rate the passenger.
