Lately, the percentage of the rider fare that I receive has decreased. On June 21st the rider paid $66.51. I received $25.95 which is only 38%, I don't care what Uber's expenses are. I have expenses too, Duration of this ride was 45m37s, Mileage was 23,2 m, Take my costs into effect and I made NOTHING on this ride. I don't know HOW they get away with this!!

Hi guys I'm from Boston I wanted to bring these three things up 1. When we pick-up a passenger and we drive on toll roads to take them to the airport ect so the tolls are being paid from the uber drivers EZ Pass account after the passenger exits the uber drivers car the uber drivers gets refunded but it go's on top of their pay this refunded money should be refunded to the drivers ez pass account not on top of their pay 2. Why is uber paying us sometimes under a dollar a mile and other times more than a dollar a mile all rides should be a$1.00 plus a mile 3. When us drivers drive to go pickup the passenger we should be paid once we accept the ride if we have no passenger in our car at that time But if we accept another ride if we have a passenger in our car we should start getting paid for the next ride once we drop off the passenger we had in the car before accepting the next passenger's request for a ride

And it stayed off. I'll see tomorrow if it stays off, so I'll know for sure if it stays off.

So now that we all know exactly what "Exclusive" means. "When you’re in Advantage Mode, you’ll receive more exclusive ride requests² sent directly to you. " WTF Up until they started this stupid Trip Radar crap where they now have drivers fighting over rides to see who can get to it faster since the rides are now going out to every driver within a certain distance, every ride was exclusively for us. Now they are making it sound like they are doing us a favor by giving us something most of us have already had for years. Why do they think we are all so stupid?

In a market like florida, I feel like the "advantage" feature can work in our good drivers favor. Weed out people who want $90 a mile and reward those who want to work. Obviously there are plenty of shit rides to decline BUT sometimes you will have to take what you don't like and thebcrybabies can go home. It is what it is.

The way I see it. Uber considers itself a tech company. It has algorithms. But yet it seems it fails at its own technicals. As an example I will use. SELECT. They took it away in respect to it being too similar. But yet they added how many more comfort. Now I drive an electric car. I did more calls under select then I can do electric. In other words, I did 99% select rides compared to one percent electric rides. Now, how many of you watching this are in an electric car and I’ve seen the difference. Do you get more electric rides or do you get more regular rides?

New York City they are employees. They're guaranteed a minimum income or wage or something like that. You can't allow the entire city to log on at 2:00 p.m. on a Tuesday or Wednesday if You're going to force Uber to pay everyone a minimum. So of course they have to control the number of people that are logged on. Uber and Lyft driver should have thought about that before they did this to themselves because of course it was going to go here.
