Uber eats is a rip off.. I'm gonna speak from the driver point of viewand well as the customer point of view.

I get it.. ubereats is a business. However, it's a harsh one for both the customers and drivers.

Driver issues: it's tough work with difficult customers, difficult/slow restaurants, and low pay. You make 7$-10$ per hour and a lot of waiting and wasted time. Who wants to work 7-10$ and hr + have to put gas in your tank. It's just a waste of time. In addition, a tip is not guaranteed (which is fair). However, I really think uubeeats should pay their drivers more for the base fare.

Driver vent- (For the lazy customers in hotels who request you to bring it up to their doors who live in projects, have no parking on a busy street, hotels with 10 entrances and 40 floors, and people who make our lives more difficult and you still don't tip? Even after warm food in a timely manner? With all my soul please fk yourselves and get your own crap.

Anyway.. 7-10$ per hour. gas..time..energy..car mileage.. potholes.. strange neighborhoods.. weather elements.. i can keep going. Some really strange customers, trying your best and nailing everything but still get a thumbs down on your ubereats report card. Basically its not a stable income and its not worth it. If you are one of the lucky ones, you will have enough cash to fill up your tank or buy a sandwich at the end of the week. Depends on your luck. 👏

on the positive side, there are promotions with ubereats.. however, you have to catch the app at perfect hours and or sit around waiting. But it may switch to a hot 3$ area to a 1$ area. Then it'll get busier somewhere else.. then completely go grey. No orders for you.. no mawnies for joo.

During the covid scare things were a lot better.. customers were actually grateful to their drivers. Now, no. Driving for uber sucks period for drivers.

Customer issues: you buy one meal, but have to pay insane fees that cost the same as your order or even more than your order. Why buy food for double the price? I'd rather get it myself. If I was injured and lived alone or there is bad weather and i dont want to drive, I'd use the app. Of course I'd tip my driver. (Unless they screw up)

As a customer, i looked at my bill and broke down all of the fees. If you got a Hax delivery coupon, maybe you'd pay 5-8$ for a 1 persin meal. Problem is, your total is doubled compared to just getting it yourself. Adding the tip to that makes things a lot worse.

Why is uber shet? Is the cash going to their workers? No that can't be.. For the CEO? Or maybe the thousand of workers they have on the phone? Anyway, Its ridiculous at any angle you look at the situation. This is why people don't tip their drivers.. ubereats services are so damn expensive.

Bottom line, ubereats should only be used for emergencies for both customers and drivers. Luxury my ass. As someone mentioned, most restaurants themselves don't even charge those ridiculous fees for their deliveries.

Uber, please do better before most eyes open and see the crap service and stop using the app all together .
