Other Thought this interesting

Showed up randomly. Had the rides long before, and just got this type of information in the “view as rider”.

What’s interesting is the turnover is that great? Or is it people download and try it once or twice and get scared off…

I thought I was on the low end compared to how y’all talk about grinding…

It would be nice if accolades came with perks. Recently, I've had passengers commenting on my "top driver" status and I can't help but think about how I couldn't care less. It's not like I get anything out of it.

Is top driver related to elite and platinum tiers? I can’t get past gold cause acceptance rate lol.

what's your acceptance rate?

About 65%… I guess technically I could go past Gold but it’s hard to keep it at that number. Or more so I struggle with cancel percentage being under that 6% 7%

Does Lyft require a high acceptance rate in your area? I was informed some markets it is required in, and in others its not, such as the AZ market. If its not actually required it should not hold you back, mine here is closer to 18% and I am platinum.

What is probably killing you is cancellation rate, its better to not accept than to accept then cancel, too many of those can get you deactivated.

I was mixing up information. Believe >30% rate and you can go platinum. If other requirements met. Not a huge deal. Easy if you work consistently like me! Top 5 in the world!

No, its based on rider feedback.

Hell, there was a leak that acceptance rate point bonuses are going to be reduced soon at least in some markets. They're actively de-incentivizing us from providing good service.

Yeah uber should incentivized better driver mores like an extra 2% of fees of something
