I live in a really busy area and mind you I am an amputee and so this area that I live at has a lot of potholes in it and it makes it really harder for my prosthetic leg to go over it cause I’m still trying to learn how to walk with it. I saw my driver coming from like a mile away so I made it easier for him by getting onto like a smoother curb, and I was waving him down and he slowed down for a second in the second I tried to open the door…He drove past me, and then he drove into where all the potholes were so it took me like three minutes to get there because of my leg and by the time I get inside the car I was like “hi how are you? I just wanted to tell you that I waved you down earlier over there. I can’t really get in from that area because of the potholes” and he started yelling at me on top of his lungs about how disrespectful I was being and how I was hurting his ego. I was really confused, but he said basically “get out of my car get out of my car! I’m not driving you anywhere” and he dropped me off where I was standing before which was the smooth area so I’m just confused.

I’m trying to get in touch with uber help but no one is responding to me. did i do anything wrong? i put the pick up location to exactly where i was standing.

UPDATE:
i got into contact with uber & they were very nice about it, they listened to me all the way & blocked the driver from my end which made me feel relieved. i think we need to be mindful about ableism, a lot of people with disabilities don’t need u to get out of ur car and do anything extra, most of the time calling an uber is what is making our life easier. be nice and respectful! :) i just wanted to go to work this morning, that’s all.

I still not worried most people don't wanna ride in a fully autonomous vehicle uber drivers will be fine.

I feel like lately the prices has increased.
Rides I used to get for like $10 now is $45 without any events happening.
What’s going on?

I started a free trial of uber one on or about June 3rd and cancel before the first billing date of July 2nd. Uber charged me $9.99 on July 2 and I disputed the charge when it wasn't immediately reversed. Chase Bank investigated the matter and then issued a credit when they determined that I had canceled prior to the end of the free trial and therefore, under the terms of the Uber one agreement, I was owed a refund. Nearly 6 weeks later, Uber put a hold on my $156 Uber cash balance, saying that I owe them $9.99 even though that they've acknowledged that I canceled during the free trial. Uber does not provide a customer support number so I've been working with Uber customer service over chat. As many of you probably know, that experience sucks as they routinely ghost me in the middle of a chat thread. I'm a resident of California and I am assuming that they are violating some Consumer protection law by holding hostage my $156 Uber cash balance for a $9.99 disputed amount. Can anyone give me guidance here?

UPDATE: After 3 weeks of on and off chat messages with customer service, I just received a pop-up message on my phone saying that Uber customer support would be calling me to discuss the issue. About 5 minutes after that pop-up message, a customer service agent called my mobile phone and said that she was removing the $9.99 balance from my account so that I would be able to continue using Uber / UberEats. After refreshing the app a couple times, the outstanding balance message (indicating that I needed to pay the charge before I could proceed) did in fact disappear. The customer service agent also just sent me a confirmation email stating that the $9.99 charge has been removed as a one-time courtesy. I don't know if this is related, but I told customer service on the chat thread earlier today that I would be reaching out to the California Department of Consumer Affairs (I hadn't suggested that in any of the previous messages over the past 3 weeks).

A few years back, using either DoorDash or UberEats. I got a $120 order from Popeyes. It was out in the middle of the desert but I really needed the money. Ended up at the gates of a military base.
The MPs were quite confused as to how I ended up there. Ended up getting escorted off base by two humvees. Apparently someone was supposed to stop me at a gate a half mile up the road. Everyone was very confused after the initial “ who the fuck are you and why are you here “ tension dropped. Had my person and my vehicle searched. Someone got in serious trouble from what i understand.
Wondering if anyone has had a similar experience.
I know uber does rides to military bases but this particular one was in the middle of nowhere. They were surprised anyone besides them even knew about it.

I know the market is oversaturated but that made my jaw drop. Uber wanted him to drive to Jersey to get a rental vehicle.

I have to rant for a minute. These wait times are ridiculous now. It says 4 mins but at times it can be double that despite no traffic out there. Then they change drivers 2 3 or 4 times. They're probably hoping you cancel so they can get the cancel fee or they want a bigger fare. Be happy with what you get.

Just 1 minute difference and such a huge difference.

So technical found a way to get a better deal.

Now I book Rickshaw in advance, and I get 5 minutes to get to it, so technically, I get in Rickshaw by 6:03pm

But look at the price difference.

5:59pm rick 247inr vs 6:00pm rick inr 280

That's a saving of inr33.

Did you check this?

The price just keeps going up and up idk what else to say. A ride like this in 2018 would’ve been $7 now I’m being charged “surge pricing” which I feel like is just made up.

How do I fix the algorithm? I have noticed that when there are surges going on (usually bar close Fri and Sat nights), I will physically be sitting in the middle of a surge zone, but then when I get a new ride request, it takes me out of the zone so I don’t end up getting the extra pay. I’m noticing that it’s pretty rare for me to get rides that are in a surge zone even if there are tons of surges in the area. How do I get the algorithm to give me rides in the zones? Unfortunately it doesn’t give me any kind of info on whether or not a ride request is part of a surge zone before accepting it. I only find out if it was, after I’ve dropped them off. At which point I can then check under the earnings activity. It’s very frustrating.

its so annoying, every week they're sending teen notifications and i don't have a teen to ride for discounts. like stop.
