I started driving with Uber yesterday. Today they billed me 10k for screening check fee. Is this normal? I was never told about this neither have I read it anywhere. How often do they charge this fee and any other fees? Thanks.

Everyone else driving on uber was also charged that 10k. It will be deducted from your first week earnings. They tagged one yeye name to it. That it is for background check. It's just exploitation my brother because they are not doing any background check. Welcome to Uber

yeah, and that is why new drivers are always given top pairing priority at Uber office, so they can collect their 10k. Meanwhile the old driver will have to wait one week sometimes 2 weeks before getting paired. Thats discrimination!

I still disagree with you because you don't know the circumstances that made him drive through the water. Also, it is very possible to off your AC and it still stops working after driving through the water. Depends on how deep the pool of water is.

The pool was in a street around Ajah, something he could hv turned back and used an alternative route but he wouldn't... The car got deep into the water that it flooded the interior of the car and the car had to be pushed out by the abokis in the area because it got stocked. My Huber driver is just so amazing

It's not discrimination, it's the best business decision.
When next an old driver gets a car, he will work hard to keep the car.

I met an Uber driver today who told me that there is currently a promotion going on, where if you drive 60 trips before Monday next week you get 25k. I can't see this promotion on my app. All I can see is the 1x2 boost. Are there people here who are NOT seeing the 60 trips for 25k promotion?. Also, what is the criteria for choosing who gets a particular promotion?

You can't see it because your confirmation rate is not high enough. Minimum of 80% or so. . . .

Uber knows the drivers are not actually making enough to break even, so they have instituted a variable earning system where they pay a (top-up) salary to those drivers stup!d enough to ruin their cars in order to validate uber's unrealistic price-regime. So those drivers earn close to the old rate in exchange for taking on every single unprofitable trip that comes their way (e.g. drive 8.4km to pick someone going 1km down the road, drive during heavy rain & flood - when there is always surge, by the way - and end up damaging your car)

If you don't do that stup!d jacky work for them then you essentially work for free. You will never see those promos. . .

Hello guys, is a Toyota Corolla 2008/09 V4 Manual acceptable to drivers on Uber/ taxify, to deliver #40k weekly? I want to be sure drivers are okay driving a manual corolla than an automatic version.

Also, are there still fleet managers at all for this, its been a while we heard from @tokyobull, and @mrsage. What is going on really? I want to place 2-3 corolla V4 on uber/taxify but through an experienced fleet manager.


I can do 35k

I don't think that's the issue. For starters, my acceptance rate is 88% and my cancellation rate is about 16% so I qualify. Even if I don't qualify, there have been times in the past when I don't qualify and they still show me the promo but then tell me to improve on my completion rate. It still happened two weeks ago. My guess is that for high earners who chase surge they omit them and give the promo to low earners to boost them. I may be wrong though
