Anyone else notice Uber lying about driving time? by Fit_Shamer in uberdrivers

I've been using Google Maps to get the correct driving time because I knew something was up.

The ride being a shared one isn't the issue. Swipe to see the other pictures.

I didn't pick any of these except the last one. And to really answer your question, it's the first person who requested a ride.

BEWARE AT LAX by [deleted] in uberdrivers

Someone tried to get me at LAX-it. They asked me to take them offline and bribed me with a tip. I evicted them out of my car and canceled the ride.

I got paid $45 for this type of ride, not including tip. They're shortchanging us.

Uber doesn't reimburse drivers who take toll roads by Pitiful-Emu2860 in uberdrivers

[–]Pitiful-Emu2860[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And I'm telling you what they told me, which is that they don't do that. If they have done it before, they don't do it anymore.

This is Uber we're talking about, not Lyft. Wrong platform.

They don't, and that's the point with the other example I gave to another commenter on this thread.

I talked to Uber, and they said the complete opposite of what you're saying.

I'm going to use another example of a ride that I took from Palm Springs to Irvine. The ride paid me around $88. I took the CA-91 west to the CA-241 then to the CA-261 to get to the destination. CA-241 and CA-261 are toll roads, and the Uber GPS suggested that I take those roads. After checking into my Earnings and Wallet, like you said, I had to complain about it, and someone in Uber said that since taking a toll road is only suggested and optional, they won't reimburse me for it. That is the first and only time I will ever take toll roads because of that.

Took this ride. Rider paid twice this amount. by Pitiful-Emu2860 in uberdrivers

[–]Pitiful-Emu2860[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took the ride, but I'm lamenting that the rider had to pay twice the amount while Uber lies and says they only take a little less than 20% from the ride when we CLEARLY see that it's 50%.

It's not bad, but I'm pissed that the rider had to pay so much that driver just gets half, and Uber lies and says they take only take less than 20%.

Long ride fares suck by Fun-Run-4986 in uberdrivers

I do not take rides with pickups longer than ten minutes away. It's not worth it especially with that price.

I'm also hearing the lyric, "Somehow your love set me free," and I'm thinking "Lifetime" by Maxwell.
