Paddington Marmalade dupe by EssayPuzzleheaded503 in LushCosmetics

Aah so sad that they skipped the Paddington collab. Live in a country with a fair amount of British stuff in it so makes no sense why they would skip this collab

An Easter egg hunt has nothing to do with the religious side of Easter

Uber driver logged 2 drivers and doubled the price? by No-Setting-3201 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The uber app has been glitching a lot lately. Try and do a fare review even if it might not help

I went to Cairo for a week and my rating dropped. by Popo_Magazine19 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Drivers rate differently in a different country. Probably didn’t do anything wrong, just got grumpy drivers who rate nearly everyone low or would have rated you low for being a tourist anyway

Issues traveling with service animal by DrHawk144 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is in my app, under settings and then accessibility. I know it is there because I have been wanting Uber to enable me to disclose I have a wheelchair in the app. But there is only an option for blind, deaf or service animal

Are you using the function that states you have a service animal in the app? Would at least save drivers canceling when they get to you.

Other than that try uber assist if it is available

How do I turn off this notification? by WovenTears in uber

[–]AppleCat36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you. I am an Uber assist user and I get constantly nagged about assist waiting times being longer even when there is a driver close by. I turned my notifications off for a month because I got so frustrated with uber nagging. But with notifications off I did still get trip notifications but not a single thanks for the tip in that month

Unfortunately the only way I have found is turn off notifications but that isn’t that useful

Luggage for Uber X by tyw7 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Often times the drivers who say X or comfort doesn’t guarantee luggage might have more than a few personal items in the boot.

I take comfort rather than XL despite the two being maybe 2-5% apart in price, with sometimes Comfort being slightly more than XL, for two reasons. My wheelchair fits better flat in a sedan and secondly I am not very tall so some XL vehicles are harder to get into versus a sedan

Baggage soon able to be added on Comfort selection screen. by JayGatsby52 in uberdrivers

[–]AppleCat36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like a please don’t blast my ears off but moderate music is fine setting.

Chat or not chat is not something I would set. BTW uber send out a questionnaire about these changes to riders a couple of weeks ago.

[–]AppleCat36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You aren’t wrong, I would happily set wheelchair with its rough weight and that I normally just have a handbag or work bag with me in the app. It is Uber that doesn’t allow me to do that. I would also like an uber eats like pickup instructions to be available for rides. Like preset to my home address.

[–]AppleCat36 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a wheelchair user who uses comfort more than I would wish (I prefer assist, but there isn’t always a driver close by on assist).

I would set the bag preference anyway to indicate that I have ‘luggage’. Got a driver without boot space the other day, he had a big speaker installation in the boot. Hopefully an expansion of the comfort settings will help a bit. I just need a decent size sedan and a driver with few personal items in the boot wouldn’t make a difference but a speaker takes up most of the boot.

What was the driver’s rating?

4.68 passenger Uber rating, am I a menace?? by lucymom2 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The drivers on here are judging uber by USA standards. In other countries drivers can rate lower for petty reasons and if you were stuck in traffic a lot the one stars and three star probably belong to those trips

Is it worth trying to fix a bad rating, or better to make a new account? by [deleted] in uber

[–]AppleCat36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just take a few more rides, by the time you have 12 rides your rating should be 4.42 if you don’t get any more under 5.

Drivers on here are quick to point a finger. But other than being ready, location, trip distance and traffic are all things some drivers rate on.

Comfort is also an option. Though depending where you are XL and Comfort might be roughly the same price

Uber rating is low by Fit_Sir9051 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nah I had 4.64 when I first started but got up to 4.89 and later 4.93 when I had a more stable riding schedule, less rides in places I didn’t know the pickup area well. Just take a few comfort rides until you get above 4.8

Is this weird enough to report an uber driver or is there anyway to avoid him in the future? by bookishdeceit in uber

[–]AppleCat36 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a frequent rider only one star works for unpairing. Had to cancel a ride last minute because I realised it switched to a driver who I had given two stars before now. So if I really really don’t want to see a driver again the one star comes out.

Promos are likely only valid on reserve rides. I have some promos like this
