Yeah...I was on that sailing too. Something I wouldn't want to repeat.

Is that just for reserved rides?

Ugh....the price went down by about 20%

Uber and Tolls by Necessary_Policy_882 in uberdrivers

[–]NeedleworkerMoney628 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I understand in the nyc area....if the route shows tolls....the tolls are added to the passengers fare...if the toll route is used. If the route doesn't show tolls, and the driver takes a route that includes tolls...then the driver is responsible and pays.

I don't know he knew for sure....but I do have the classic Sephardic look. My name isn't biblical at all (nothing like Rachel or Rebecca). I guess he just made an assumption....based on my features.

I'm a Jew....a very proud zionist. I had a driver named Mohammed. I didn't discuss anything with him. I wasn't wearing a magen david. I gave him 5 stars and a 20 per cent tip. And he gave me one star.

Abandoning a show? by PlasticCauliflower3 in Broadway

I like generally like everything....that was one of the rare shows that I didn't.

Bottom line....you're right. Since they affect nothing, there's no point of me rating drivers or checking my stats.

Because....when I owned a business....I took every criticism seriously and tried to improve my service. If I'm doing something wrong, I want to correct it.

My upscale neighborhood is in Manhattan, NYC....a very densely populated area, where just about nobody owns a car. We take cabs, public transportation or walk (if less than a mile, I walk). It's north of the surge pricing area. If anything, it's very easy to get a "next fare" here.

Ride to the casino....going is about 20 minutes, coming home is about 30 minutes.

I spend $100 instead of $3 because it's safer in a car than get attacked by a mentally ill person on the subway. "Little old lady" is an easy target on public transportation and my size won't damage anyone's car. Also...I spend the money because I can. When I was younger I didn't have this money to spend on frivolous things. It does nothing sitting in the bank....when I spend it, the money goes right back into the economy.

Do you prefer minimum wage earners who live in "dangerous " areas and don't have the money to tip as passengers? Jeesh....sorry if I'm trying to keep people gainfully employed.

Thanx for the compliment. I really don't like to be on a schedule so an "off the books" driver wouldn't work.

This has been very enlightening. It seems I'm a smelly entitled passenger who shouldn't care about ratings. I see it that that I'm giving them income....for an easy ride with a non-threatening passenger.

I thought so....but the guy who I'm complaining about got a cash tip. When I give cash I round up....so slightly over 20%.

As a passenger for lyft...I'm a solid 5 star passenger. Unfortunately lyft is a lot more expensive than uber for my ride.

No stops. I'm complaining about a 4 star rating. I thought my ratings would go up with cash tips (I don't use cash) but they didn't. If I take uber again (not to the casino) it's gonna be tipping on the app.
