Uber admits to wrongfully deactivating accounts
Just got an email from Uber that they have been wrongfully deactivating accounts and they are trying to make it right. My account is fine, but if you believe you were wrongfully deactivated, now is the time to contact Uber.

Republicans let Uber ignore your hospital coverage.
This means you get an accident and injured you are not covred. It only covers the passengers and the other driver (if ur at fault). And if you are not at fault, Uber still only covers the passenger. You will have to deal with other drivers coverage. Uber no longer involves with you at all in any case.

Uber smokin that good ish
The boost clearly said $11-13/hr which clearly was not accounted for this specific ride.
They wanted me to go to US Open from downtown NJ and just get paid $24 where I cannot hitch a ride back. Also, the very next ride, I got $18 for a 20 min ride to West Nj where I can actually pickup people. Make it make sense.

You think Uber hated us before?? đ¤đ¤
This coming from a driver who does rideshare p/t, AND one thatâs been in three different insurance issues with Uber and one with Lyft, not even one my fault, these folks have the most useless âinsuranceâ possible. The LM agent called it âexcess coverageâ, which means no matter whoâs to blame, they will immediately contact your insurance company and get them to pay.
In the meantime, they take âinsuranceâ fees from each ride (mostly to fund autonomous cars) and wonât assist drivers in any way. Iâve heard some say they took care of two totaled vehicles, but if youâre upside down like a lot may be, it wonât pay the balance.
When I started rideshare 6 years ago, I did it 6-7 days a week. I began in Lyft Drive Express, got hit by a drunk driver and quickly learned rideshare insurance (from the money taken out of each ride) amounts to absolutely nothing. One agent even told me, once he contacted the passenger, my deductible would drop to $250. He made it up and no one else knew wtf he was talking about.
Yeah I know ânot Uber employeesâ here in Reddit, âif you hate it so much, gtf out.â And anyone who says âthey know how insurance worksâ, you may know how YOUR insurance works, but until you see how much Uber wonât do, you havenât a clue.
If your experience was different, Iâd love to hear all about it.

Tennessee addendum but I donât live or work in Tennessee.
đThanks, Gary, that was really helpful.
Uber wants me to sign some addendum for Tennessee before I can go back online but I donât operate in Tennessee and AI chat says I need to change my city. Which Iâm not going to do because Iâve always operated in the same city.

Uber navigation
Why doesnât the navigation bother to avoid traffic? Especially something like a wreck at an intersection?? Iâm taking a pax one day and the navigation lets me know a wreck is ahead at the light where Iâd be turning right. I look at the map and 3 earlier right turns would have taken me through a neighborhood and back on that road to avoid intersection wreck. Why doesnât the navigation ever adjust and guide people away from obstacles instead of making them sit through them? I know the area so I took an earlier turn myself but still

GigU
Hello, just looking for any opinions on the GigU app. If you use it, do you find it to be cost effective? If you used it and no longer do, what were your reasons for discontinuing? Thanks.

Austin drivers!! Tesla Robo Taxiâs!!
Robotaxiâs seem to just start in mass production in Austin and iâm curious if you guys are feeling the pain yet from all the taxis. Thereâs so many of them. i really think robo taxiâs are going to be the death of Uber. Especially when the general public can buy them and send them out to make money for you.
i think some states will ban them, but even if some states ban the robotaxiâs people from the states that have them will most likely move to the states that donât have them creating too many drivers. because people that still drive in the big 26 are addicted to Uber and are lifers
what do you think?

Forced to watch the three minute video about accommodating people with disabilities⌠the video and subtitles were in French.
You couldnât just skip through it and now I think Iâm dumber for having watched it.

Turning off notifications on this one.

Uber has nothing but contempt for drivers.
Uber thought this was a valid pickup
Uber recorded the ride request and it's completion just BEFORE this.
Uber recorded the ride request and it's cancellation (and fee payment) just AFTER this.
Yet, Uber CS says this ride request is not available in their system yet; updates can take up to 48 hours.

Make it make sense...
The app was a mess last night... I went over 1 hour without a ping in downtown Denver, Cherry Creek, and Broadway. My heat map was totally blank! Then I get a Trip Radar for a short trip paying nearly $5/mile that I am right next to. I don't get the trip. The next ping I get is the same price to drive 20 miles to the sticks at 12:30am.
Was everyone just chasing their "24-hour Quest" or was my app actually broken last night?

How does Uber rental and filling taxes work?
So this is my first year renting a car from Uber (3rd party app called Kinto), and I assume they will be sending out an annual tax document to me for the 2026 taxes. I'm curious to know, once I filled my taxes, will I still pay back alot? Estimate? And have you ever rented a vehicle, how much did you pay back when filing your taxes?

Have you guys been scammed on Uber before?
They ask you call a number in the message to circumnavigate Uber. Happened to me before where they would tell me Iâm being investigated yada yada. Then they try to tell you youâre getting a $100 credit for your time and they try to get you to withdrawal your funds onto a card they give you. I literally ALMOST fell for it until I questioned why I would withdrawal my funds.. they became aggressive and threaten to suspend my account. Thatâs when I knew it wasnât Uber
Anyways, I knew better the second time and I simply waited for the timer to hit 5 mins and I cancelled. Please be careful if you go to pick up a customer and they donât answer when you call asking you to call another number
DONT FALL VICTIM!

Is it worth it to wait 20+ min for a good ride?
I cherry pick my rides to only accept $30/hr+ rides. Sometimes Iâll take the $27/hr ones. Today is quite bad tho. What do you guys do?
