Cos I kena many times in PJ during peak hours.
Time calculation is totally off, 30 mins trip due to jam calc as 10-15 mins only.
Sent in report to CS to dispute also no use nowadays.

Yes I kena before also. Even though the fare that I calculated was 25% different from their upfront fare, they didn't want to change it.

But then I noticed that sometimes Upfront fare works to our advantage if Waze suggests a shorter route. So I let go the matter.

If I am not mistaken, it is caused by the private school there.
During weekdays, have to be careful - remember this time.

CS will not entertain fare re-adjustment nowadays.
They will only give you a scripted reply.

Uber CS is based in Europe I think. They are not familiar with roads in Malaysia.

No need report, i can already tell u what they gonna say. This is upfront pricing, we have to honor it, rider love upfront pricing with no suprise and bcos of that increase in demand bla bla bla..basically tell u fuck off, u collect & earn whatever the fuck we give u
It was super jam. Suppose take only <4mins..

Ya, the private school go off at 3pm i think..like i said, just avoid and dont be tempted to drive in that area during that hour.

This upfront pricing thingy is really the dumbest policy on earth. Traffic jam can occur anytime of the day due to the smallest issue like accident etc..uber's map service does not monitor real time traffic..
But anyways la..take this as lesson learnt the hard way..

8-9pm is the quietest period (from my experience)..it'll get busy again between 930-10pm and until whatever time.
That being said, i was in a uber black uncle driver from PJ..he only drives at night, from 8pm onwards until 4-6am..according to him, he prefers it due to clear road..he seems happy driving that hour..

Just try and report. If they give standard reply, post it to their Facebook or something. Buat kecoh or something.

Upfront pricing is the dumbest?

Grab's fixed price is dumber.

That day got one passenger tell me to take the wrong way then it was a huge round to get back to his destination. Total distance become double.

Luckily it was Uber, not Grab. Then he report me for Navigation. Wadefak? I change his rating to 2 stars.

Upfront fare is actually the brightest idea by their execs.
This way, fare remains low and riders are happy to continue using Uber - and the loss is transferred to the drivers.
And Uber keeps leeching on the commission, 2x win situation for them.

Well, Grab has it's weaknesses as well.
But then, you can see the fare before accepting a trip - so you can blame no one if it sux.
And also if you're trapped in an unexpected traffic, you have HG to fall back to.

Income-wise, Grab beats Uber by a mile.
Drive for fun, maybe Uber.

1. Clear road smooth drive = lower fuel consumption for his UberBLACK car.
2. Better chance for KLIA RM200 per trip
3. Less STRESS
