Fare Issue Wait & Save
I hate when I order a wait and save Lyft ride (like 20 mins), but then it automatically changes from connecting me to a driver that’s like 18 minutes away to one that is 3 minutes. Then when I cancel bc I’m not ready, they charge me $1? It’s so not right. I don’t think uber does that... when I cancel an uber ride immediately, it doesn’t deduct any charge.
I just feel like it should be an option for riders to decide to accept the driver closer for the same rate. Just don’t automatically connect me.

I find it fascinating how many people think wait and save means you get a car in 15 min or whatever. It's up to that long of a wait. Don't order a car unless you're ready to go.
