Uber Charged A Rider Over $14,000 For A 21-minute Ride In Toronto by divvy: 10:31am On Dec 11, 2017
This isn't the first time Uber has charged a customer an exorbitant amount for a seemingly quick ride.

Uber mistakenly charged a man in Toronto, Canada a whopping CA$18,518.50 ($14,415, £18,518) for a short 21-minute, five-mile ride. The outlandish cost of the trip was shared on Twitter after a user named Emily Kennard tweeted a screenshot of the ride's receipt.

"My friend was charged 18K for a 20 Min ride (!), and they are sticking to it. What in the world This is insane!" Kennard tweeted on Saturday (9 December).

The Uber receipt was first shared by an Instagram user with the handle "votethehish" who has a private account.
