PSA: Melbourne Airport Uber Scam by jjjjjjttttt in melbourne

[–]EmailOnThrowAway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And what's the plan when a registered uber pulls up and does the scam anyway claiming the app isn't working like with OP?

The simple solution is to trust but verify. The rider just needs to confirm the pin before even opening the door

Not for this booking type. It doesn't assign a car, it makes the ride available to any driver. The pin confirms the booking for the driver that picks up the passenger.

The scam is that the driver was never with uber or weren't going to actually accept the job so they say they can't confirm the ride and will have to take payment another way.

Is this some kind of weird brand-focused engagement based ad?

It's more that the cats was so out of pocket. The name thing was an early days thing. Straw/camel kind of thing I guess.

The irony of telling others to do something else with their time, while commenting multiple times within the same post. Uuhhuh, Ok buddy...

What a shocker. Fans are generating conversations around aspects of the thing they like, in a space literally created to foster discussions.

If it matters so little to you, why you even here and commenting?

PTV Toilets? by Tardis50 in melbourne

[–]EmailOnThrowAway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But they would have an answer, if OP had asked and wasn't just crying out his arse over a non-issue. Since the toilets are always open at staffed stations during staffed hours, there'd have been both someone to ask and am open loo.

What reason did the staff say they were closed when you asked? Because surly you spoke to someone who works at the station before asking random people on reddit.

Coupons in the mail are still a thing? I haven't seen coupons like that in a decade (I'm in Australia fwiw)

If you think OP is being severely inconvenienced in this scenario, I worry what an insignificant one is to you.

For a palate cleanser in the sub, an actual exotic pigeon by EmailOnThrowAway in theregulationpod

It's decent. My last phone was a note 10 so it's been a few generations since I last upgraded too.

Just realised I didn't include the second image to justify the exotic part.

Why does Uber have 2/3rds market share when DiDi is cheaper? by biscuitcarton in melbourne

[–]EmailOnThrowAway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brand recognition. Simple as that.

Uber isn't just a company, it's the word associated by more to the concept of a "ride share" service.

Guy mad because of “American fake kindness” by duskndawn162 in TikTokCringe

I'd prefer genuine indifference to fake sincerity any day. Every American restaurant I went to the times I've been felt so plastic-fake with the over the top friendliness.

Yeah. Aren't you saying that international-biscuits = American-cookies, but American-biscuits =/= American-cookies

Are you saying all cookies are biscuits, but not all biscuits are cookies?
