Drivers all over the country are experiencing hours of wait time between trip requests on Friday and Saturday nights. The past two nights the banner at the bottom only says "you're online". No "Finding rides" no "You're in a busy area".....just stuck on "you're online". I uninstalled and reinstalled the app tonight hoping to clear that up. Nope. It only got worse after that. I cleared data and cache. Restart my phone. Then everything seemed fine. Got a trip request and when it went to navigation it booted me offline. WTF?! Tried to go back online and I hear the prompt to pickup my passenger then boom boots me offline again. I couldn't even cancel the trips that were glitching. First one canceled and I got a cancellation fee. I couldn't even refund the riders cancellation fee. Went to "help" (hahahah very funny support...useless) and they gave me the "logout", "force stop", restart your phone, and log back in. I double checked everything as far as permissions go and everything was good on my phone. I repeated the steps and cleared the cache and restarted the app. When I restarted the app in went into the "day mode" display. I was afraid to accept another trip but, when I did it went to navigation to the pickup. Uber IT dept and infrastructure is hot trash. Totally out of control with all these "measures" to fight our independence as private contractors.

Now Lyft is only offering these almost unattainable ride quests. With no or close to none ride streaks with minimal surge prices . I haven't met my goal now in several weeks. This weekend it was 90 rides for top tier bonus . I was 7 rides away from my bonus at 12:30 am and they timed me out. Said I had been online for to long and I needed to break for a few hours . Basically cock blocked me from bonus . I drove way longer hours the week of superbowl and this was only the second time in almost 2 years . I've driven from morning til 5 am the next morning before and they have let me go on driving . Seems very fishy and I believe they are scamming hard .

Uber wants to hold us accountable on acceptance rate and force drivers to take garbage trips at the same time the pay is crap, they don't pay for our car, gas,mileage and it looks like we no longer are compensated for pick up. I've been with Uber since 2016 and each year I make less. One would think Uber would have some bonus for long term drivers. Nothing ..just a daily slap in the face. I recall when drivers could work a few hours and be ok. Now to make that same amount of money we are being forced to work 12 hours a day to make part time wages. This is exploitation. Now they have the audacity to complain about acceptance rates when all they're sending us is sh. trips. Riders are burn out on tipping. Uber getting to be not worth it. The bonuses are crap, there no demand pay. It's a shame the Uber is no longer the hustle it used to be. It's more like a scam than a hustle.

I just don't like how they send a TON of them at the same time, as I should only get like maybe 3 or 4 in the radar to pick from - not 8! Now, the issue I have with trip radar is where they add rides from WAYYYY out (10 miles away) that shouldn't be considered as being on my radar. Anything in my area should be included in my radar, and that's it. Then let me see which rides are gonna take me in which direction - all from the trip radar buffet.

Also in regards to the new quests options. Passengers will start to complain. When we would get our quests via number of rides, us drivers may or may not take the smaller rides just to get the count down. But now with drivers having to get a bonus based off the amount of $$ we make, drivers are going to only want to accept the bigger paying rides to get the bonus faster and/or to get a bigger bonus. So these passengers with the small trips are going to wait longer or the fare will go up. SO STUPID

I get a similar effect on UE, if I decline a couple in a row, it makes me wait (sometimes hours) until it gives me another one. It's been happening for a couple months in my area, happened two days ago... so I logged off, signed out, and took a couple days off. That's what they'll get from me... no driving at all for a couple/few days each time after they do this. If they insist I take bad offers to be in the game, I'll just get in a better game elsewhere. And their 01%/13%/100% driver will not be "getting it done right"... they can have some retiree w/o a hot bag, and poor navigation skills do the "job". I provide exemplary service, and there are no industries where it is cheap to get the best service, I expect to be compensated for the extra effort... not multi-apping, disabling new requests so current customer gets hot food, and I tape a life-saver and andees thin mint for each diner on each meal. From about 4k deliveries I've found a base+$1or$2 tip delivery RARELY gets bumped up afterwards... but base+$5 deliveries OFTEN increase the tip for exemplary service. There is something fundamentally wrong with Uber expecting "top tier" drivers to drive for "bottom rung" pricing. I'm not going to do it Uber, find a better way.

@@sergioSMTMC1 Thanks! If you guys ever need something to talk about, that is a no-brainer overnight fix: Uber wouldn't be able to defend the ambiguity of "leave at door" for even a second, with even the most creative spin doctor. All customers have expectations for their deliveries, some put them in delivery instructions. 35% don't care if you knock or not on a leave at door delivery. They are flanked on either side by people who have rambunctious dogs, sleeping babies, or conference calls, (people that absolutely do not want a knock or ring)... And those that are hungry and want their food the freshest, at highest possible temperature, (and definitely do want to be alerted with a knock or ring) when their food is delivered. The existence of "leave at door" as an option, (without the simple variance of "knock/ring" or "no knock/ring") creates an *ambiguity* on every delivery that needs to be actually explored in order to effectively navigate these customer expectations. Uber could make EVERY delivery slightly more efficient by enhancing the amount of options that the customer has in these drop-down menus, aside from one simple choice of leave or meet at door.... and while we're at it remind them to turn on their light for their porch address, and put any other delivery instructions... in the delivery instructions. I have suggested this to support repetitively for 2 years, and it's frankly quite embarrassing that Uber hasn't done the simple two or three lines of code necessary to increase the number of drop-down menus in the delivery options. Every time support tells me "what a great idea it is"... that they're going to "run it up the flagpole", and then I continue to be in the same place, with the same inadequate tool, that is basically forged for ineptitude!

Accept every trip. Send a message to pax that you'd like to take the trip, but you aren't being paid fairly. Then cancel. That ties up the system and will eventually make the fare higher if enough of us do it.

@@sergioSMTMC1 is it though? My cancellation rate is already at 80%. I take a screenshot of every offer. If it looks “decent” I’ll accept it. Then I go and analyze it further using the info on the screenshot. Most of the time, it’s not a great trip, so I cancel.

I have given three different riders a low score for link a wait time at pick up. Each time I have, I have been disciplined by Uber riders by giving myself a 1star rating . Now I have been accused of being under the influence. I haven’t drank in 20 years now my account is on hold while waiting for them to review I believe their algorithm is disciplining me for having a 49% acceptance rating

Idk about that, my acceptance rate is 14%, on a bad day, it's 8% 🤣😂. I do see that they only give me 3 trips a day but I tri-multi-app so I don't pay Uber much attention when they try the lame attempt to limit my trips, I go to whoever shows me the money and I'll hang around the app thats dropping me good money 💸 💸.

You are right Sergio they do that with drivers so they can’t complete the quest too the extent of giving fake trips towards the end of completing the quest. Quest is our own money taken from each trip and tips during the week it’s not an add on. So instead of giving say the driver 10 dollars they will give them 7 and store the 3 as tips or quest money. So I stopped taking quests completely. They want us to be on the road for 12 hours and do more trips. Bottom line earning whether it be surge, bonus, streak or quest the money is the same by the hour they set for us.

Also I would like to add, here in Indianapolis ( not sure if it's like this in all the cities) but I feel like Uber gives us these high quest because it's impossible to get when everyone floods the market trying to get them. So all these drivers value drive. I will not compromise my $1 a mile. I refuse to drive for pennies. Uber knows this so Uber has me in time out I uninstall and reinstall at least 5 times a night. I also have to take pictures of myself at least once an hour. I've been doing this job for almost 5 years. Uber has compromised their own values. I went and got my LLC's , my EDIN #, business account, and Uber helped me establish my clientele. These Riders are tired of paying high dollars for a ride and the money isn't fairly given to the drivers. When did an $8.25 surge from the airport to downtown ( about 17 min. drive ) become $14.00? Surges make absolutely no sense.

This will most likely get burried, or someone has talked about this. A rental car driver, the companies are in on it (in regards to cooking books, and upfront fares acknowledgements 100% of the time). Reason I say this.... uber goes by standard rates in the DFW (DALLAS/FT WORTH). You can get a toll tag, register it, they take the fees out regardless, and still charge you anyways. The nightmare about this is two fold. Not only are the fees through these companies exhuberantly high -- they are impossible to get a decently timed response for reimbursement. There in lies more time I have to wait, while money is bleeding out of an account, only to have it happen. Over, and over, and over again..... there needs to be a 49.99 surcharge fee for any company that does not do their due diligence in regards to contacting these departments and banks for their holding times on funds, these seemingly random .01 cent charges etc. Nobody is being held accountable (the companies playing blame game.... now you're back on hold with you bank just to verify info with -- ohp too late the other establishment has closed after hours "thank you for calling, good bye") and it's costing us thousands a year. Bullshit says someone.... why thousands?!?!? Where do you get such a figure.... Time. You're costing us time to do your job which is why we put money into your companies, into the services you provide. You sit on your ass and answer phones. You do not hold lives in the balance with your job, and when your job does not pay you and we all start to feel replacable (which is happening regardless, in 10-15 years there will be no more drivers, only body gaurds). This is the problem, we're still squabiling over dollars per mile, when we should be talking about the safety reports directly caused by their pushing constant rides or else, which in turn are causing mutliple deaths on and off the clock (do not get me started on insurance claims and how nobody wants to take responsibility for it and are extemely unhelpful with rental companies even IF YOU HAVE YOUR OWN COMMERCIAL INSURANCE ON TOP OF UBER/LYFT, ANNNNNDDDDD IT'S THROUGH THE FUCKING RENETALS WAIVER! WAKE UP PEOPLE... They're just milking is for every penny until the electronic dollar takes hold. At that point, it'll be every man and woman for themselves (which is sad, especially when the fast majority just want a 'fair shake' and a seat at the table. It's all run by greed, and thieves, enjoy the rest of your regular programing.

I will now refuse all trips under $5. I no longer need to be faithful for them to keep using me. I found that they don’t tell the true drop off location, it’s always 1-2 miles further.

Therefore independent contractor model could not be completely satisfied according to transportation regulations and IRS independent contractor models...
