Used twice, over charged twice. I have used Uber twice. Both times going incoming, I was overcharged from what they stated the charge would be. And trying to get it straightened out, so called customer service kept sending me a form letters that had nothing to do with my complaint. In my opinion Uber is a scam. Yes you can get where you're going but they charge you at least 20% more then they state their charging. One time, they charge me three times what they stated they would be charging. It took in excess of 75 emails from me to get that straightened out. Don't waste your money, don't waste your time. Uber stinks

Uber is crooks
July 28, 2023

I have been waiting for a week for Uber to pay me what they owe me. They told me 10 days ago it would be 3 to 5 days. Now they are telling me 10 more days. Do not use Uber. Try Lyft. They are cheaper.

Thieves!
September 11, 2018

They have little to no customer service. They have no actual person that you can speak to. They make it almost impossible. I have tried to explain to them in many different ways that they have charged me double for every trip that I have taken, and charged me double the tip for every trip that I have taken, and the money has come out of my bank account, but they still keep telling me that I have an outstanding balance and That I must pay it again!

Uber's ratings of its Partners is irrational. 4 out of 5 is 80 percent. The founders probably didn't score 100 percent in college. The overall rating of Uber is not a 5 star. Uber platform to send the Partners out without training is expectation is fatal. Why allow the companies ratings to fall immediately with new Partners. The riders are Mal Contemps and not happy with a good, friendly, and safe ride. All new Partners should be required to attend the four hour training. Uber changed its policy on evaluation mid stream and changed from the 500 ride minimum to a 50 ride minimum.

Once a Partner gets de-activated they are treated as if they are a criminal, second class citizen. Uber does not care about the negative publicity or terminating a Partner.

New Lyft Driver
December 10, 2021

I hate following the prompts to receive help through the Uber app. I am often times routed to someone who doesn't even pick up the phone.

I've had the same tech issue for a year, I've never cared to write a review but I'm sooo aggravated because I actually like driving for Uber but I've had to drive for Lyft because of lack of access due to a tech glitch.

My app does not provide UberX as an option in my driving preferences after countless troubleshooting, false follow up promises, and hang ups in my face.

I believe this is because I created a duplicate account but an account specialist removed the duplicate and I still do not have access to UberX. Every time I call it's a complete run around. Please help, what else can I do I'm at a lost.

I've lost faith in this team, they are obviously not well trained, overwhelmed and lack the proper resources to actually assist. I guess I'm team Lyft.

Uber through venmo Sucks!
Each time I pay Uber through Venmo I have to contact support asking to modify the charge. I've waited over 3 days to see if Uber will modify it itself but it looks like they won't do it unless you email asking for your "change".

It's very very annoying. Uber Venmo won't modify the initial amount unless you contact support.

Don't pay Uber through Venmo. Unless you want to over pay and loose money

Very disappointed and unhappy with this

Crooked Uber
August 13, 2023

I ordered a Uber to go from the Outlet Mall in San Clemente to San Juan Capistrano (7.9 miles) and the charge was $49. What a ripoff and the driver only got paid $20 of that money. No wonder the reviews here are so bad. Uber is like a crook on wheels.

I am an IT employees working in Infopark cochin. Last night i booked a cab. Its just a distance from Infopark to Kakkanadu(seaport airport road) near civil station. The bus charge is the minimum fare which is 7 rupees. That much short distance. When i arrived at my stop, i was shocked by seeing the fare as 366 rupees. Fare + 250 rupees because of surge period. What the hell is this. I depended on Uber for each and every journey as i carrying. But i stopped it by yesterdays issue. Very very very worst experience and feedback on Uber. I hate it now.

Terrible Company
September 8, 2015

Liars, cheats and thieves. They treat employees so badly and constantly make mistakes with payments. Not surprisingly, the mistakes are ALWAYS in Uber's favor. Did I mention they are liars, cheats and thieves.

I had booked an Uber for a 5.30AM pick up - received confirmation of the arranged pick up and time. This was a $95 fare. When I opened the app at 05.10AM no driver was assigned no message was sent to advise of alternate option or when a driver might be assigned 40 mins later a driver picks up my ride sends text to say be there in 25 mins - saw him drive towards our address 10 mins from arriving he shuts off his app. Next driver finally turns up 1 hour and 40 mins late causing us to miss our flights. Went to the Uber app registered my complaint - got a canned answer and on a second complaint offered a $10 credit

Drivers alway are complaining about how the job sucks... i really don't care to hear about your problem. They tell you thier sad story so you will tip them i guess... i don't need a guilt trip with my ride. Get a different job if ypu don't like the one you have... and clean your car once in a while.

Yes a customer gives a driver a back comment to be evil, as that the driver was too slow when only was a the speed limit. What the driver has to do race in the street to make the passenger happy, and get a ticket for speeding. The driver got suspended for a week, and forced to take a class for $60. The drivers are making money for UBER to be treated like crap.

Uber do not offer a customer service to attend concerns that are not in their software menu.
Uber do not offer a telephone number to communicate

Richard took me to waffle house on 12/6/22 my phone fell out Richard later found it. I called Richard kept it.

I found other charges coming out of my bank account after Richard found my phone, he said he would be sure to return it to me he said I promise their customer support has gotten nowhere with Richard and he still has my phone. Richard the Uber driver committed fraud through my phone with my bank account. Customer service can't reach Richard he refuses to answer his phone through customer service for Uber.

Driver did not come to correct pickup location- and he refused to give me the street address where he was instead just giving me the general intersection of 2 streets. He was nearby and could have come to my exact location as I told him but he refused to do so, and refused to answer any more questions and just went silent as 2 or more minutes passed- meaning all that time was wasted and I consequently had even less time to get to my medical appointment. He waited all that time without further answering my questions and then canceled on me and then I was charged a cancellation fee. I asked for a review and it is being refunded, but Uber left no provision for me to complain about the driver. This is for the trip that was my first booking today on 8/23/2023.

Don't work for Uber
March 17, 2023

Don't work for Uber they don't pay. Don't work for Uber. They don't pay their drivers. I just did three deliveries and they did not pay me for the very last one. And it brought me a half an hour out of my zone.

I am a Uber driver
July 26, 2023

I am an Uber driver and lightly Uber is keeping more of the fare than they are paying the driver. This is ridiculous. We use our vehicles are gas, our maintenance on our vehicles, and we pay taxes on the money, and they wanna be greedy and keep more than they pay the driver.

Overview

Uber's reputation is marred by significant customer dissatisfaction, primarily stemming from a perceived lack of reliable customer service and transparency in pricing. Many customers express frustration over unexpected charges, inadequate support during issues, and poor communication from drivers and the company itself. Positive feedback is scarce, with some drivers noting satisfactory earnings and enjoyable interactions with passengers. However, the overwhelming sentiment highlights a need for improved customer care and accountability, as many users report feeling abandoned and undervalued, leading to a growing trend of customers seeking alternatives to Uber's services.
