Why Uber Driver Rating Drops FAST but Rises Slowly. Explained

Рет қаралды 83,608

9 жыл бұрын

Ride Sharing Apps like Uber, Lyft, Sidecar, ect use a rating system to keep the drivers and riders safe. Bad Rated Drivers are removed from platform(s), Bad rated Passengers get cancelled and/or skipped by drivers more. In this Video I created a sheet with calculations where I show you why your driver rating drops so fast but rises SO slow that you may thing it is NOT rising at all.
This is an issue with MANY drivers, especially the new drivers. But you will see why and i hope understand why you as a driver doesn't have to worry so much if you are doing a great job. Even the BEST ride-share driver has this worry because we can loose the driving account and lose that extra income.

many riders don't respect Uber drivers because of the lack of respect for the brand. they quickly forget what crappy service the receive from taxi cabs. I got a 1 star because I hit a pothole on a dark rainy night. another 1 star because I wasn't knowledgeable about the riders area that he lived. another because the customer placed the wrong pickup point. Uber gives these a-holes too much power over the drivers

I left Uber about a year ago since they decided to reduce the fares 15% in Manchester as well as in London. It's worldwide exploitation, riders are happy, because it's too cheap, so they use and abuse it. Drivers the other end are working long hours for peanuts and paying 20-25% commission to those motherfuckers. You can t make a living working for Uber.

Really appreciate your video! I think Uber should have some sort of "1 rating forgiveness policy." I, currently, have a 4.91 Riders Rating... i received a "fluke" 1 star rating from a customer who I believe did it, just, for the heck of it & my rating dropped from 4.93 to 4.82 overnight. Although this rating could have been entered late or changed at some point, it goes against the "norm" of my average ratings. Never received a 1 before, havent received a 1 since with 317 rides, thus far... Clawed my way back up but it can be devastating to a driver's morale...

+sparkfirehot It's a give and take system. I will agree that it has allot of parts that are not fair at all. First thing is that even your best will not make everyone happy. Some want to talk, another do not want to talk and some like the car, others don't. But when you start your average DOES take hard shifts when a small number give you a rating below 5. But since you are still under the 100 mark, you can and will raise it quickly. The more rated rides you have, the slower the impact from a rating below 5 will be. Last thing is passengers lie. Most will tell you that you were awesome but it's not always true. Do your best and it will average out. Thanks for watching and the feedback.

The rating standard for uber is bs! Most people believe a 5 star rating system is the same for everything not just ridesharing, like yelp, itunes, etc... So why do uber riders get cutoff when they go below 4.6?? Literally a 4 rating movie is a great movie, yet a bad rating for an uber driver? Seems very off

+Endorphin Factory Your concern is one felt by most all long time drivers. But it's actually not that simple to be cut off for bad rating. I'm working on a new video showing this. allot worry about being cut due to rating but very few actually do get cut. falling below 4.6 on X Only places you on a test period. and It takes allot of low (less then 5) ratings to be kicked out. so a couple of bad raters will not end your side hustle. I hope to have it done soon. Thanks for watching.

Not even heavy machinery, and not even a stranger's car. Is it so ludacris to except a driver to show up on time, drive properly, and be nice enough? Maybe the star-rating is flawed, but if that your job's ONLY criteria, can't you live with it? How hard was it to get hired? How many interviews did you go through? How many hours did you have to log in before taking your first customer? Do you know all the streets by heart? Pretty sure it's all No... cause the gig was handed to you... And it can be taken away just as easily. Ride sharing exists because it challenged the old taxi experience, and the shitshow that it was. Now you want these companies that built themselves around customer satisfaction to lower the bar?

The rating system is so flawed against the drivers...I had to give up driving nights. I learned picking up at nightclubs and drinking establishments is a recipe for disaster for your ratings. When people have been drinking and under the influence...No matter how nice ,friendly and helpful you are...They will thrash your driver rating. I have had drunk passengers laughing and holding up the phone and just about blackmailing me saying what am I going to do for them or they are going to give me a 1 rating...Outrageous having my driver rating in the hands of drunks.

@ridesharewarrior1666 8 жыл бұрын

This vividly shows the flaw in the rating system... it is biased against drivers, because they expect you to be close to perfect. Another way to think about it is that in a sample of 500 rides, each "star" contributes 1/500 (or .002) to your average rating. So getting a 1-star instead of a 5-star will drop your average by 4 x 0.002 = 0.008. You could have done 499 perfect 5-star rides, but that one 1-star ride drops you from a 5.0 to a 4.99 overnight. To get back to a 5.0, you would need to do 500 more perfect 5-star rides. The closer your rating is to a 5, the more effect a low rating has in pulling your rating down and the harder it is to get it back up.

@Ridesharingtech 8 жыл бұрын

+Rideshare Warrior I don't see the flaw. Your numbers are solid but I made other videos where is actually shows that it takes allot of low (below 5) rating to be deactivated. Stats show that many that leave Uber / Lyft don't leave because of rating deactivation. It's actually not a large number that get dropped because of low rating. Let's forget rating 1,2,3 and talk about 4 and 5. The rating really is a fight between how closer your are to a 4 or a 5 star. To fall under enough to get a warning for low rating actually takes a bunch of below 5s to trigger. 2,4 or 10 low ratings will not do it. I will give you that getting it back up is VERY hard but if you have allot of drives(Rated trips) then even low ratings cause the average to drop slower. NOBODY will ever be a perfect 5 with 500 trips. Especially with many of these young millennials that don't rate 5s because some oddness. Even with a few asses, you will average well if you are doing a good job. high 4.7 is GREAT. Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts.

@ridesharewarrior1666 8 жыл бұрын

It's flawed because the number implies a quantifiable score that doesn't exist. It's not like getting 9 out of 10 right on a quiz. People rate on different criteria and there is no objective standard. Is a 4.8 driver better than a 4.7? Not necessarily. A better system would be to ask each rider would they want to be matched with this driver again, yes or no? Then a score of 0-100% would give you the percentage of riders who said they would want this driver again. Now it's pretty clear why a 90% driver is better than an 80% driver. Also all rides have the same effect on your rating, which can go up at the same speed that it goes down.

@Ridesharingtech 8 жыл бұрын

Abe, We are not building hospitals, we are simply moving people from 1 part of town to another. Riders mostly doesn't care that much nor what to waste that kind of time. It wouldn't matter because I alreadyshowed you that you really require many low (less then 5) to fall into the warning zone. With your system, the bench mark can be keep 90% "Would use you again". 3 say No and 7 say yes you would equal 70% liked you. It's still averages. The speed would still shift at different rates because someone with 500 trips and 25 said NO with your system shifts the average slower then 25 NOs on a person that has 100 trips. And it doesn't change that if a rider wants to simply be a dick because they didn't like your car or price to rate you NO when you were a good safe driver. Needs more rethinking.

Watching you click in a bunch of 4's, 20 or more only drops it to 4.95 or so. The most frustrating things though is that they give us no feedback.

Mr. Kalinick deliberately set up this rating system because he knows sooner or later everyone will fail. Why? He doesn't want experienced drivers. Experienced drivers might want to organize into a union. Experienced drivers might notice their cars are wearing out. Experienced drivers might start taking street hails. Experienced drivers might give out their phone numbers, and start running trips off the app.

The 500 count is your RATED drives. (100 for Lyft). It depends how many rated drives you have under your belt. If you have very few drives, a slow rating will shift quickly. If you have ALLOT of drives then low ratings cause your numbers to drop slowly.. Same is rising.

I have done 130 rides with a 4.88, but I am concerned that how things are going eventually it will hit the 4.6 threshold. I kinda feel disappointed at Uber for its rating system. A week ago I was at 4.92 now these last days I have had some picky riders and it has dropped to 4.88 very close to 4.87. And I know it will take about 60 5 star rides to get above 4.9 and secure my job as a driver

I work nights, take drunks home, working until the last clubs close at 4am. Not a problem if you treat them right. The above video is just simple mathematics and is only offset because we have to work within a very narrow band. I am the ONLY driver who shouts 'TRIMMED MEAN' yet I am a driver who actually doesn't need it. I haven't a clue why other drivers don't demand trimmed mean as a more representative statistic. If drivers DEMANDED trimmed mean, practically all the problems listed here could be solved. The problem with Uber drivers is they don't think. They don't seem to be able to work out how to get a 5* absolutely every time. If I wanted to, I could guarantee 5* every time before the rider even gets in the car, but now I simply change my way of working to make it easier for me. If I go down to 4.95, then I'll change back to the previous strategy knowing it will go up again. Right now I think I am close to going up to 5*, but it's more likely that a change might go down to 4.98 instead of up, kind of exciting to watch what it does.

Me again, I just noticed that last two weeks, the rating went up from 4.72 to 4.76. Now looking back at the app I noticed that there were two weeks why back in early June where I got the weekly average of 4.2 and 4.3, and they got erased and the most positive rating replaced. I am also looking that there is another week of 4.4 next week if this 4.4 gets replaced with 4.86, you think the ratting might go farther up?

Uber ratings are based on the last 500 trips .My friends and I have discovered thru testing that Uber cooks the ratings. For example take a driver who has done 1404 trips. The next trip is a test in a remote area where this driver switches on the UberApp immediately before some friends have asked for an Uber in the same location. Uber tells driver to pick up one of driver's friends party to this test. After the journey the friend gives the Uber Driver friend a rating of 1 as part of the test. So for trip 1405 driver has rating of 1. Now 500 trips later trip if in trip 1905 if the same driver gets more than 1 his rating will increase. *As part of the test in trip 1905 the driver was given a 5 HIS RATING DID NOT CHANGE*

It's a new math based on your rated trips. It's allot of stuff but If you have less then 25 trips, you are safe. under 100 trips, you will be placed on a test period to raise rating. Over 100 trips then the average is based on your last 100 rated trips but your overall is based on the last 500 rated trips. More drives - the better you get. SO Your overall might show 4.59 but your last 100 rated equals 4.71 keeping you safe. YES - It sounds complicated but I'm working to make a simple video.

+Ride Sharing Tech I don't understand why you are saying under 25 trips you're safe because that is not true. I only did 25 trips, last rate i saw was 4.33. I was deactivated until I take some one on one class which i ask about if there was any dummy run in their program that i could practice on.They said no. I took some trips, the riders are putting in the destination point as their pick up point. I nav to where the app tell me to go and i get a call saying i am in the wrong place and too far away and they get mad at me.Also Uber's instructions sound cut and dry but it is not. The app is friendly but not friendly. It can as is discouraging. The instructions are not the same on an i phone as an android. Have you heard of the type classes that they give you a choice to go to when you fall in rating and do they cost?' Veronica H

@Ridesharingtech 8 жыл бұрын

+Veronica Hughley Actually it is true. You were flagged at trip 25 which isn't "under 25". the first 25 ride buffer is in place so you don't get cut right away if you fall under 4.3 on only 5 trips. Because ratings shift VERY fast when you have very little rides. It can be VERY frustrating and I understand as I too am a driver. Once you reach 25 your score is looked at. Anything after 25 will trigger right away. I have heard the classes are pretty good from people that have done it. My advise which is what I do myself is once the gps starts;hit the route button so you get an idea of the location. This helps when the GPS gets jumpy. If you find the rider pinged far from what the app said, tell them to re-request and cancel. they might have moved the pin out of surge or the GPS on phone was not fixed (Common on iphones 5 and older). Made sure the car is clean and smells fresh. Here is a sad fact, a 4.33 means you have 17-4stars & 8-5stars IF your worse rating is 4s. That is more then half. I say take the class because once you have a large number of trips, the ratings don't shift so fast. Thank you for watching and I hope the info helped some.

That's some great information man. I've had some issues in the beginning where I picked up the wrong passenger and I ended up in getting a low rating. This happened only once and it was my 10th trip, but I'm still struggling with it. I did everything to fix it, including reporting it to Uber and requested not to charge him. But I got a bad rating and neither Uber or the passenger wanted to change it. I've also asked Uber to tell me the tripID where I got a less than 5 star rating, just to do a self evaluation to figure out what went wrong but they were no help in that situation too. You thrive to do your best by following all the policies and guidelines and still you get a low rating even after you thought you did the best, is very discouraging. It looks to me like you're very experienced in this field. So I've got a quick question. Is it appropriate to remind your passenger to rate you at the end of the trip? I'm seriously been thinking about this because, in most situations, you do the BEST and they may not rate you. But if something goes wrong, in most cases unintentional, they will never forget to give a low rating! So is it okay to remind them to rate you for the trips you think that you did well?

But let's say you do fall under 4.6, because of all your trips, You would be given a 50 trips trial to raise it.
