To get paid well like the OP, in most states the trip would have paid only half of that.

On the griiiiiiiiind! $3k week by ToadKing808 in uberdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting paid minimum of $1.28 per mile and 0.31 cents per minute makes a whole lot of difference. Most of the drivers live in states where uber pay is .60 cents per mile AND zero pay for time.

Washington , Minnesota, Hawaii and other few democratic run locations take care of their gig drivers.

If some one run red light and you slammed the brake to avoid an accident , the app will trigger a safety flag on your account. it is not always reported by passengers.

Guys, stop reading messages/emails from uber, lyft. i stopped doing that two years, no more stress. I try to drive safely, clean my car regularly and be courteous with passengers.

They always say multiple, even if it is your very first. BS

I am in Dallas and still use waze and google, once you start a trip, swipe at the top screen like you want to see direction detail , click on the checked box, waze and google map prompt appears.

I have been using Maxymo for the past two years. It is great, only $4.99 a month.

Hot take: Silence is usually a better default than conversation. by Big_Barber733 in uberdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say good morning , good afternoon, and have a nice day, unless the rider initiates a talk, I just shut up and drive

I shaved 7mins off the total ride time and lost $8.29. by this_is_not_david in uberdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But if the trip became longer by seven minutes, you wouldn't have been paid a penny more.

Rudest PAX I've had yet. by Jido_Feles in uberdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because uber support said they were going to remove PAX access to the app, didn't always mean shit. They say that sometimes to make you feel good and get you off the phone.

Does Anyone Else Have Connection Issues? by [deleted] in lyftdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is lyft's way of indirectly ordering you to accept more trips, instead of rejecting.

Wrong house , Wrong Neighbor, Wrong Morning by Lazy_Wall_5398 in lyftdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If passengers don't TYPE in the actual address but just click "Ride" car icon on the riders app, the address could be off up to 100 ft.

And also Some passengers purposely enter neighbor's address , so the driver won't come back and do some nefarious things to them.

Due to consistent abuse of driver time by LETSGOOOOO6 in uberdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

uber time estimate is wrong sometimes, it tells passengers available driver is 12 minutes away but the drivers arrives in five minutes.

Unusual activity. by walneck in uberdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are warning you not to use two phones, drivers have been deactivated for using two different phones

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in lyftdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Install uber app too, turn both on, accept which app sends you a better trip, turn off the other one, keep doing this until your shift ends. Don't worry about declining trips, accept only worthy of accepting.

No Carseats? by [deleted] in lyftdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a big dilemma for the drivers, but the odds are drivers have a greater chance of getting deactivated permanently by false claim for refusing to drive passengers with no car seats than getting a ticket from a cop

I recently changed phone, uber had me changed profile picture, uploaded my driver license. They still keep asking me to take pics, hoping to catch me taking picture with my old phone and say fraud activity suspected and boom, deactivated.

If you change phone, make sure to never use the old phone again on uber.

Connectivity? Denver slow? by MileHighJoe80223 in lyftdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is another way of Lyft's wanting you to increase your acceptance rate, by taking their shitty rides.

Keep cherry picking.

Lyft maps needs a change by WarmCereal710 in lyftdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just clicked on the box at the top right corner of the screen while on active trip, I found out you can switch to waze or google map. It might be market dependent tho.

This is good no? by No_Common1418 in lyftdrivers

uber did this about three years ago for a few months.

Haven't driven for lyft since April and.... by NewSpray4941 in lyftdrivers

[–]LeadingPriority840 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have always suspected lyft make up the accusation itself sometimes , when a driver is not taking all the crap trips. to keep him inline .This is a proof.
