As a rider,  u can't see it.  Only driver can.  I did ask drivers about my rating. They always thought I'm a new rider due to my rating.

As a rider, u can see ur rating from here

Help >> account >> I'd like to know my rating

I'm a uber rider for 6months, so far I'm pleased with my journey. But I believe there is some changes from their system since March. Recently I quite often got driver far from 15-20km but I only travel to 5km distance so normally I will call the driver and cancel the request. This kinda annoyed me, I feel bad when the driver need to pay toll and 30mins to reach but my destination just less than 10mins. I will ask them start my journey before pick me when I'm desperately need my ride.

That happen when there is now nearest driver, once i got ping from klang, and pickup is at shah alam 15km away. sweat.gif
ya this is why as driver i feel uber system is wrong, uber partner app,when receiving order/job, it does not show the destination. So the driver could not determine whether the trip is worthy.
*
actually I'm supporting does not show the destination part to eliminate similar case like taxi which refuse to pick up. But uber should do better apps so that driver cant accept rider which more than 5km radius distance. For rider just have to endure it and wait then, else just accept the surge charge.

I got 1 past experience accept 1.5x surge going to KLIA, basically its "ouch" to me, I paid more compare with taxi but I still willing to pay it because I enjoy having a nice chat with driver along the way.

Ever tried talking to taxi drivers? They are human too. With lives.
*
yes, I did. I always sit in front even taking taxi last time but what annoyed me was my condo there normally got no taxi and majority don't run with meter. I just find it really convenient ride with uber and their cashless payment.

I used to call a regular taxi driver send me to airport for past 8 years, we even smoke inside the car when going to airport, haha. Normally he will charge less when I'm on personal trip, I let him earn more when business trip because I just claim from my company. Too bad he retired already. Yes, I agree taxi driver having a tough life, my regular taxi driver was paying rental rm60-80 per day (can't recall) to become LCCT driver. But too bad that taxi driver image spoiled by those KL city taxi driver or LRT station.

I had a short visit to Bangkok and tried Uber and it seems like their fare is bit expensive compare ours.

UberMoto (2.16502 MYR for 1.37km)

UberX (4.30244 MYR for 1.72km)

The UberX driver telling me that Uber Thai is paying some fees about 2000Bhat to Government as a permit. The payment is nothing to do with Partner and Uber take care everything.

It's look like more about the same here

Most of time, I noticed that rider do not pay attention to the estimated ride arrival when requesting, thus, many times, they upset why their ride take so long to arrived, or request and cancelled. Some don't even check and double confirm the pick up location, there is incidents I got ride request in middle of highway. Only when called up, it just because the rider was in the condo, beside the highway, thus, the pin show it highway. Or, some telephone number is non contactable.....

I fully agreed, the apps need major overhaul... bangwall.gif

yeah, happened to me once that I didn't notice my pin was couple of blocks away biggrin.gif
I would put the blame on my stupid gps shakehead.gif

whenever i at segi college kota damansara, i always get ping from desa park city. i would just ignore the ping. Twice already. very annoying that need to pay to toll to reach them.

Would you guys accept the ping or otherwise ?

Yup, as a rider I'm always got driver from Kota damansara especially at 7.30am-11am .. normally I will call the driver and cancel the trip but quite often I got the same driver again, it's kinda annoying .. just feel bad because I only travel short distance but driver from Kota damansara all the way to desa park city normally need 20mins ..
