About 10 mins before I was supposed to be picked up the ETA was about a half hour later than what I had booked for. Not really sure why I would pre-book a ride if it doesn't show up at the time I ask for. Very frustrating and I might be late for that flight ### 3/5 — Mostly Good *2026-07-21, version 7.0.93* Cheaper than cabs either nicer cars. But the time examinations is always wrong lol ### 4/5 — Useful, but…. *2026-07-21, version 7.0.93* While this has been a great service, there has been a weird trend where i pre-book a ride and my driver has shown up 10-15 minutes earlier than expected. Usually I’m still in the shower or getting dressed at that point and have to rush myself, or risk a frustrated driver. Other than that weirdness, the service is great. ### 1/5 — Horrible experience *2026-06-18, version 7.0.89* Was forced to use Uride in Belleville and Uber wasn’t available. We requested a ride an after 15 minutes of waiting they cancelled and we had to take a taxi. We tried again to get back to the hotel and waited 13 minutes, and then saw the driver pull up. We were paying our bills at the time and about a minute later, we watched the driver leave. Then I was charged for the ride. Possible redeeming quality about Uride was that their support was excellent and refunded the ride right away. ### 1/5 — Somewhat reliable *2026-06-14, version 7.0.89* stop raising the prices you’re just a cab company now stop trying to copy Uber ### 2/5 — Get more accurate on your timing to pick up *2026-06-07, version 7.0.88* Once you are in the car, it’s fine but when you click on a ride and the estimated 3 minutes turns into 20 minutes, you know they are just throwing a number out there. Two days in a row, it has been like that. The driver mentioned that some new software is being used. ### 1/5 — Rides arrived too late *2026-06-03, version 7.0.88* Waited about 20min for ride! It’s not even rush hour! Could do better than this! If I took bus would have been faster! ### 1/5 — No point in offering this service *2026-05-31, version 7.0.88* The service in Thunder Bay is laughable. It takes 30 minutes to get paired to a driver just for them to cancel on you. ### 1/5 — No stops *2026-05-28, version 7.0.88* It’s not possible to add a stop on the route. Driver demanded cash to make a 30 second stop which was on the way. ### 1/5 — Ridiculous *2026-05-19, version 7.0.88* I was banned due to another passenger’s actions that I had no involvement in and actively helped resolve completely, with them actually admitting that, and saying they have no power to reverse it.. ### 3/5 — Drivers ignoring rides. *2026-05-17, version 7.0.88* The app is great. When the drivers aren’t ignoring your ride. Isn’t the first time this has happened where I’ve been stranded at a bus station staring at 5 cars in my vicinity but not a single one picks up your ride. What’s up with that? Can there be some rules implemented here that they actually do their job?? ### 3/5 — Misleading ride availability during late hours *2026-05-12, version 7.0.88* When it's peak hours it works great. But when it is late, forget it. Shows rides available, time away and prices, but never finds a driver. So it is not based on any kind of real time availability. Definitely needs improvement. I know you can't control driver availability, but don't misrepresent it to me. ### 1/5 — Drivers a treated unfairly *2026-05-12, version 7.0.88* The Uride Driver app needs serious improvement, especially from the driver’s side. One of the biggest issues is the pickup and address system. Passengers can enter incomplete or incorrect addresses, or the app/map can send the driver to the wrong pin. When that happens, the driver follows the app exactly, but the passenger gets frustrated and can leave a negative rating as if it was the driver’s fault. That is extremely unfair. Drivers should not be punished for problems caused by the app, the map, the GPS pin, or passengers entering bad pickup information. The rating system also needs to be reviewed. Passengers can rate drivers poorly simply because they are annoyed about address issues, directions, app problems, or pickup confusion. Even when the driver did nothing wrong, the negative rating falls back on us. There should be a better dispute or protection system for drivers when the problem is clearly outside of our control. Another major issue is pay. Drivers already make very little after expenses, and gas prices keep going up. On top of that, Uride recently lowered the fuel surcharge from $1.00 to $0.50, even though the price of gas continues to increase per litre. Drivers are using their own vehicles, paying for their own gas, insurance, maintenance, repairs, tires, brakes, oil changes, and depreciation. There is no proper maintenance compensation, even though the wear and tear on our vehicles is constant. Airport trips are another example of how the system does not fairly compensate drivers. We only get paid to take the passenger from the city to the airport, but the airport is far out on the edge of the city where there usually are not many return rides. Because the app is location-based, drivers often have to drive all the way back into the city to get more trips, and that return drive is unpaid. By the time you factor in the gas and time spent driving back, airport trips can actually cause drivers to lose money. The same problem happens with trips to outside towns. We may get paid to take someone there, but there are usually no rides available in those areas, so we have to drive all the way back to the city unpaid. That means a big part of what we just earned gets spent on fuel just to return to an area where we can actually receive more requests. Overall, the app and pay structure need to be much more driver-friendly. Drivers should not be blamed for app issues, bad pins, incorrect passenger addresses, or poor directions. We also need fairer compensation for fuel, vehicle maintenance, airport trips, and out-of-town rides. Right now, too many costs and problems are being pushed onto the driver while the pay does not reflect the reality of doing the job. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Garbage *2026-08-18, version 7.0.94* Long wait times left me stranded many times ### 1/5 — Less pay to drivers *2026-08-12, version 7.0.94* They never pays good to their drivers. They take more than 55% of the money ### 1/5 — Worst service *2026-08-10, version 7.0.94* I am using the app because its the only option for Peterborough, i have to wait 1 hour for my driver to pick me up after i book the ride. I have to be at work 30 min ago and I am late whenever I book the ride. And the drivers, it clearly shows that the driver is standing at a fix position after accepting a ride just relaxing at a place. While he has accepted the ride. I hope uber or lyft enter the city. ### 1/5 — Annulation à 2 reprises *2026-07-31, version 7.0.93* À chaque transport réservé, le conducteur a annulé la course à 5 minutes d’avance. Après, impossible d’en réserver un nouveau. Tres très décevant, surtout quand c’est réservé à l’avance! ### 1/5 — Customer *2026-07-19, version 7.0.93* Trash , ETA almost always wrong ### 1/5 — 0 STAR LOL *2026-07-17, version 7.0.93* Disappointing!!! prices are not upfront and scam they do hidden charges and unfairness. When u book it says a specific price then on the ride they add additional charges ### 1/5 — sexual assault *2026-07-11, version 7.0.91* i don’t know who the driver was but it was a fat indian in a car and he touched me and id like for him to be removed immediately i was 15 at the time ### 1/5 — Fictional eta’s *2026-06-26, version 7.0.91* Booked a ride home from the bar, was told they’d be there in six minutes. Five minutes later they’re still six minutes away. Said they were two minutes away for over 20 minutes but was still trying to find a driver. Booked a car on another app, they said a driver was on the way and gave a real eta. Deleted this app, will never use again. ### 1/5 — Never available *2026-06-25, version 7.0.91* I’ve tried a few times to book this never a car available . ### 1/5 — Unreliable *2026-06-24, version 7.0.91* 24 prebooked, driver cancelled 5 min to time.
