  • Seriously though.

    I’ve driven with Uber for sometime. I had to take a bit of a break because of some personal health issues and I’m back! I was so excited to get back on the road meeting new people seeing new places. I no longer have the vehicle that I had when I drove Uber last year, with that being said it was extremely easy to add my new vehicle upload the required documentation and get the vehicle approved! So you're probably wondering so why the one star rating… well that is because I’m trying to go online and drive and it’s not allowing me to go online. It’s telling me that I need to select an approved vehicle. It’s still showing a vehicle or no longer own on there and that is what it is defaulting to despite the fact that I keep pressing the button when it tells me I need to select an approved vehicle I select that vehicle and it still defaulting to the old vehicle that I no longer own. It’s also not allowing me to delete that vehicle either? I have reached out to customer service now three hours ago and I have not heard anything back from them and there’s no contact number for Uber either only an emergency response hotline that I’m not going to call because while I drove an hour to my usual stomping grounds and I feel like this is an emergency… it’s not the kind of emergency they are referring to. This is insane. I’ve wasted my day, my gas, for nothing. Customer service needs to step it up. 😕

  • Uber= Racism, Discrimination and Xenophobia!

    Uber is a racist and xenophobic rideshare service! I drove for them for more than two years, more than a thousand five stars rating. Even during the middle of covid I was driving for them , bringing food to the top of mountain, where sometimes I lost gps connection, bad phone services, a place where many Uber drivers don’t wanna go because of that. One day out of nothing Uber suspended my account, the reason? they can’t tell anything precise. The last thing they told me was your account was “suspended for safety reasons” what safety ? They can never tell anytime I have a chance to ask them. Plus I have videos records of all my trips, I suggested them to send them the picture of any trip they are referring to so they can make an informed decision, something they totally ignored. I assumed the only safety problem is that I am a black man driving in a predominantly white area, so my skin color is a safety problem. If no why no accepting the video records of my trips ? On their app they asked me to contact the customer service, at the same time they disabled the way I can call them and keep ignoring my messages. I have my documented proofs with me. They did similar treatments to other people who happen to be blacks and/or coming from different countries. A terrible racist group of people. People knew already that you are sexist, now I put in light your racist and xenophobic side.

  • I Love UberEats but Definitely Needs Improvements..

    I wish I could give Uber full stars because I’ve been earning extra money as a mother of 3 boys through Uber Eats since March; I gotta say I absolutely love making extra money on my own time but with that being said, I also hate waiting my time.

    Uber definitely needs to improvement how Uber Drivers get to accept and view orders. In my opinion Uber Drivers should be able to see or view a list of ALL orders in their area (depending on what town you are in) OR AT THE LEAST when you accept a single order to a restaurant; you should be able to view or see all of the available orders you can accept as doubles! Instacart has a layout where you can view all the instacart orders in your area WHICH I ABSOLUTELY LOVE because you know you won’t be wasting your time.. As a Uber Eats Driver it’s very annoying to be “roaming” town to town - restaurant to restaurant trying to find a order that is worth my time.

    there are other improvements I would love to mention such as reviews, OPINION PERSONAL INFORMATION BEING LEAKED, navigation, time efficiency, rude customers, glitches etc but I’m really HOPING Uber can just research a little bit more on other delivery services apps in competition and do some BIG improvements. I have stayed loyal with Uber for a reason and I’m hoping that reason doesn’t get buried. -Uber Driver with Hope!

  • App freezes constantly and must be restarted.

    Constantly the app freezes and I must restart. After a recent update the navigation is touting unnecessarily long trips even when the destination is to a location that’s on the same street it sends you to make 3 extra turns that just make you circle around for no reason. Lastly constantly while I’m either texting my customers or even support a new trip will pop up as I’m on the middle of writing and because of it being set up so when a new offer appears if you tap anywhere on the screen you’ll accept a trip without intending to, without being able to see what the trip was offering as pay or destination and then you have to cancel and that is also held against you if you cancel too many trips. Besides then having to go back into whatever part of the app you were using and rewrite the message entirely. I suspect that might even be intentional so that you accept a trip nobody wants to take. The way that is set up when you receive a new offer and it making you accept it because you were I. The middle of writing something is incredibly frustrating and it should be changed so that there’s an on screen button that has to be pressed or slided to accept a new trip instead of just touching your phone screen anywhere because it’s also occurs that I have my phone in my pocket while I’m walking to leave the order and it makes me accept a trip.

  • No Customer Service or Care for the Chronically Ill

    I have been working with UberEats for over two years. I have a chronic health issue that makes working a “normal” job as impossible since I ebb & flow between being okay enough to work & extremely bedridden with a chronic disease. UberEats gave me the independence & sense of personhood I needed after my chronic disease took so much away from me - financial stability, my dream job, friends, family, the sense of safety. Until today. I was informed last week my background check was being redone. I agreed & then was informed first thing morning that I was able to work again. Awesome! I am feel good & have less then $30 in my account. I need to work. But when I go into the app, it says my background check is being processed. I am getting text messages to get out there to work. Even a notification in the app, but I can’t go online. I sent the online messages system over a dozen text messages over five hours with ZERO response. Uber is literally taking away the little I have left & won’t respond. You are keeping a chronically ill person from their prescriptions & making a living. With not even a response. If this is how you do business; I am better off on the street, which is going to happened to me. Thank you, Uber. I have defended you & worked with you for years before the pandemic & this is the gratitude I get shown. I hope you can sleep at night putting people who have very little out on the street.

  • Don’t expect transparency

    Uber will give you the money you earn most of the time, but the app is so glitchy that they have “temporary outages” where your earnings will not appear for up to three days and after that it is up to you to reach out to them and force them to look into it. I had to reach out 5 times before someone actually attempted to assist me and then they only gave me a fraction of what I was owed, claiming I had already received it. This was untrue and I could see that they were basing this off the wrong information in my pay statement. That didn’t matter to them though so I spent an additional hour trying to get help to receive 5/20 dollars owed. So with the time seeking help and the trip I did that’s 5 dollars for 2 hours. The online help tab is useless and they will cut you off before you are able to discuss the whole problem with them. If you receive an incorrect address and they ask if you want to deliver it to the new one for additional fare do not do it. Just keep the food and take the fare you will receive from arriving at the original location. This app is a good way to make money fast as I have had to rely on it for income for some time now while in between jobs but I would not call it reliable. Make sure to count the money you should receive as you go and don’t rely on the app to properly keep track.

  • Uber Eats driver

    The app is pretty great. I ONLY do UberEats.. The quests are generous and help make you extra money. I actually do this full time now to focus on my own business and I get by. However, they should have an option for us to decide if we are willing to deliver out of the state. I understand that people that aren’t from NY or NJ think traveling in and out of the city is a breeze, and when you live in Jersey City and Bayonne it really is, but that doesn’t mean I WANT to go back and fourth, MORE THAN ONCE in a day, let alone an hour, idk how tolls are anywhere else but getting into any part of NY is EXPENSIVE. Especially now that the pandemic has made the state of New York even more broke. I don’t mind doing it, but there are days when it’s just not worth it and when I really just don’t want to. So please, idk if you people at Uber actually read these but please consider giving us an option to travel out of state, or maybe give us an option to enter how many miles from our preferred location we are willing to go. And can you maybe figure out a way to get us to our destinations without having to pay multiple tolls, I’m doing this to make money, not to pay 2 to 3 tolls for a person who’s only gonna leave a 1-2 dollar tip. If there are going to be multiple tolls, you should figure out how to make it worthwhile.

  • Accomplishes the minimum

    After driving for UberEats for several months I can say the driver app does the minimum of what it needs to do to connect you with deliveries. However, the constant glitching of many key features can be incredibly frustrating. The map’s GPS software is sluggish and often thinks roads exist where they don’t, or subdivides straight, continuous roadways in ways that create confusing delays in providing directions. At the time of this review, the tip notification system is totally haywire and sends at least two notifications per tip, often more and at random times. The weekly and daily earnings pages frequently fail to load, especially the expanded trip summary pages. If one trip summary can be accessed, it sometimes seems to keep all the subsequent ones from loading properly. The messaging feature used to constantly cut out in the middle of typing, which made it difficult to keep in touch with customers and insanely annoying experiences retyping the same thing 5+ times (this seems like it may have been fixed by the most recent update, but time will tell). The help section of the app is unavailable while on an active delivery, which makes it the most difficult to contact support precisely when it might be most urgent to do so. Overall, the app accomplishes the necessary basic functions, but the user experience is frequently unpleasant.

  • There are good days and bad.

    I have no idea why you allow ratings that do nothing to help your drivers improve. I have never done anything to deserve less than 5 stars, other than when there are app glitches, and when I get rated below I have no what I need to improve. This is the most frustrating thing for me personally. Hardly any riders tips me and I am polite, careful, and help them with their bags or assistance getting in out of the car when needed. We are providing a service that takes most of our fare and tipping should be automatic. The only other thing that could explain no tips is if the company is taking them. But how can that be proven?

    I am grateful I have a job to work until I can find something better, but I constantly worry about what will happen if I ever have a real problem with a customer or anything else really. I have been driving for almost two years now and wish the fear of actually being able to trust the company I work for would go away. You have so many drivers though so the opinions of a few don’t seem to be worth your time. It really is not becoming worth the wear and tear on my personal vehicle with prices going down and the passengers having no idea what we have to pay just to drive for you all with commercial insurance costs, fuel, tires and everything else that goes into taking care of our vehicles to provide safe traveling for YOUR customers.
