I mentioned Lyft, only because I quit Uber almost 2 years a go, for many reasons. Uber is actually worse than Lyft. I tell Lyft that being better than Uber is not anything to be proud of, because it's nearly impossible to be worse. Where I am, no ride over $10 has any value, other than to get ONE SUCH RIDE to get to a busier area. Then, I set a 10 mile filter.

I've noticed this in Pittsburgh. I started cherry picking when distance costs more than the ride. Lyft sent me a wake up text telling me to drive because I wasn't up. I'm not taking a ride in downtown Pittsburgh when it costs more time to get out due to construction than the ride pays. After a couple declines they send me something worth my time. I asked a guy yesterday what he was paying...$20 and some change and they gave him a discount of 10% because he hasn't done lyft in awhile...I was being paid $17 and some change. Surge and bonus hours are simply gratuity because honestly less than 5% tip. I don't even wait the full 5 minutes when it pays less than $10. I cancel the ride and move on.

If you look at the date and times you can tell this is a weekend trip during peak hours. So yes you can cherrypick but the window is so small that it's a strategy that works for 2 to 3 hours of the day on the weekend. In those two hours you can make $36-$40 an hour but then it will go right back to the same $22.

That is not correct. The algorithm gives you shit offers in order to push people to accept shit orders. It doesn't mean that the others are getting the same offers. I have seen same ride offered first at $12 and than latter at $15. They try to offer a low baller and see who gets caught

I love your videos. However, in my market, we don’t have upfront pricing and the problem is to reach gold level. You have to have an 85% or greater acceptance rate. So you have to basically accept every ride they send you. With a few exceptions. I get rides that are 20 minutes away and the ride is, eventually only five minutes or less. It’s a tough way to work, but getting a gold or diamond is the only logical way to keep driving.

Guys my experience in Philly is fewer cherries if decline it gets slow for me. What seems to be the case is they very per mile widely if a trip is averaging 20-23 miles per hour the pay is usually $1/ mile. Heavy traffic averaging 10-12 miles per hour trip pays $2-$2.75 or so. I’m including time & distance to rider. So for me I’m finding $23-$25/hr under most circumstances regardless of surges or boosts.

This advice seems highly specific to the LA market. As a Chicago driver, some of these "no brainer" trips are ones I would not accept here unless the drop off is somewhere I want to go, which is usually where the money is, or home if I'm done. If I'm already where the money is (in Chicago) I generally don't want any trips over about 2 miles. Sometimes even 2 miles is too far. And yet I don't hear any discussion about drop off locations and expected earnings in those locations vs. the pickup locations.

Uber sends lower paying rides to older vehicles. every time I enter a high paying area, I will eventually get a second ride, maybe a third, but always, the next ride removes me from the area. Whenever I drive in a 3-5 dollar area (to raise my qty) they always send me a ride out of the area. Also, I notice I habitually receive very long distance rides. I have spoken with them about this but they wouldn't acknowledge it. Originally we had a long distance button, but they only provide uber-x 1 button now. I constantly receive compliment on my vehicle, I keep is clean and polished. It is not banged up either.

I only drive weekends now. During the weekday it all comes to a stop after 10am. So many cars on the road during rush hour so not worth it. Pay is deplorable and gets worse everyday. How are these companies making money. I got deactivated from Uber months ago for a having a duplicate account I did not even have as someone hacked Uber and duplicated my account and it’s my fault so they deactivated me? So now I am down to just Lyft. It was fun driving while true ride share started and now it just makes me mad to go out and drive and see what they offer me. Had to swallow my pride and get a job during the week.

If you are accepting trips without upfront details then Uber has WON! You are demonstrating to them that they can manipulate you into accepting whatever crap they want to send you. Keep declining any fares without details and I bet you will find that they will straighten up and start sending you upfront details again and do this even if your acceptance rate tanks to 10-15%. They try this with me and I hit the decline so fast my fingers are burning, and my acceptance rate is 18%. Also have Lyft open and work that too.

I am a new driver, just 3rd day, and noticed that my "acceptance rate" is 19%. My questions are: 1) Does this really matter, 2) i am presented with trip requests while I am in the middle of another ride and so just ignore those requests. I presume this is leading to a lower acceptance rate. How can I turn that off? As for the others that I purposely deny, I am not taking ANY ride that doesn't pay at least $1 per combined mile (distance to pick up and distance to drop off), isn't that reasonable?

Acceptance rate doesnt really matter, they use that to scare you into "oh I better take whatever comes my way or they will put me in time out" I congratulate you on your 19% acceptance rate because that means that you filtering out the crap rides. On the app you can swipe up and go "offline" by hitting the red button. I do this on all my rides because there is nothing more dangerous than driving in heavy traffic and the trip radar just keeps pinging while driving. There is a good Uberpeople forum where you can get some good advice for being a new driver and you will gain some insight as to what other drivers are going through.

It was bad then. 2024 there are no cherries. No surge, no challenges that are worth it, no other incentives as a full time driver. You get lucky on 3 trips a day if you are lucky. My Uber acceptance rate is 10% Lyft a little higher because I cheese the little surge rides left from them

I guess I need to learn a strategy because I followed cherry picking method and it got my score so low they will not raise me back up and I called and they use my score as the excuse for sorry rides like 4.64 even during rush hr and they hide surge time on screen if I cherry pick now I MAY see $14. - 15. for still longer time but all the rest after that will be sorry like 7.67 including surge during rush hr time then because I'm not excepting it's taking my score down even more and it's been impossible to raise because they take away quickly but it takes two days of excepting every ride to raise it even 1 Point I haven't cancelled a ride in two weeks and they've only moved it 4 points down and when I do ok like 100 in 3.5 hrs because it was busy and they couldn't play games they slow me way down to keep me from earning another 100. I use to make 300. or a bit more doing 12 & a little over the 12 hrs now I can barely get 200 and then I've gotta eat and put gas in the rental freaking car that I have to pay 330 every seven days for its killing me so I definitely need some pointers

Watch Drivers Diary with Sergio and then this video then the comments below - Sounds like cherry picking only works for a few drivers... If you're turning the apps on and off, not excepting trip after trip. Why would the Uber or Lyft app give you good trip consistently? (They don't again watch the dairy) I watch hundreds of MULDA drivers sitting at the Airport in empty cars here in Minnesota wasting time while I drive past them with a rider inside my car over and over and over... Then again, my other side of my Brain goes please please keep Cherry picking, send over that money (Thank you so much)

These screenshots are from 2023 - - we are halfway through 2024, Sergio. Please, updated screenshots within 30-days or so Thanks for the reminder of cherry picking! Please kindly do a video about the downfall of Share ride. I never take them anymore unless its surged and going a few short miles and I stop requests so I'm not pinged on anyone else, but I did a $25 share that went a few miles this morning, forgot to turn off (rush hour) and two others got added on (ugh!). I did it just to get it over with, but the third rider ran late. As I was about to cancel, he came out. Same pickup for all 3 ppl who didn't know each other, so I didn't have to grab the other two. I no longer do share for a variety of reasons, but if you did a video, you guys can explain your perspective - Too many riders often - They don't understand that its 2mins only - They don't understand that they can't edit the trip or hop out someplace else (one person did that out of the 3 today, but I still drove to her dropoff, so if the complains I have her on camera saying she wants to get out) - They can't have bags! LOL! Picked up a girl who had two luggage, I told her if I pick up two other ppl with luggage, no one has space. You do realize this is common sense when ordering a Share, right? It's on Uber's own website under Share to order an UberX if you have luggage Also, Boston Market here... many of the previous Share riders tell me that it takes a looong time to be matched to a driver. I tell them the reasons drivers don't do Share, and they agree, yet they are still requesting Share.
