wait. how to do this in uber. i know grab has this in the notes section. but uber?

No option to do that in Uber. After a driver accepted the job request, then only you are able to send the driver message or additional note.

Guys need some help out here.

I got permaban by Uber. Check with them at the PSC and they said i failed the driver background check and they cant do anything about it since its the system.

No criminal record, no bankruptcy, never had any people complain bout my driving (assuming from the rider feedback section), I had a 4.72 star rating. I have been with uber ever since the early days in 2015 when they just started off here.

Main suka they permaban me. I dont drive full time, only part time with them and mostly drive to hit those trips incentives tier only. Maybe they permaban me because im on 20% commission tier and they cant untung much from me.

Anybody have source to find out why they ban me? Writing in to them has been useless.

Same as me la Bro, never knew the exact reason being banned. It's the same reason, once your name was flagged in the system that's it....you gone. There's no Tier 1, 2 or 3 like they have in Grab, whereby you has these options or chance before beigb banned. So in Uber case, it's hard to pinpoint the exact or specific reason.

Somehow, the existence of Uber resolve around their computer/system. We still received promotional material, since our name is still in the system. Seems it's all automatic. There's no manual, human intervention. Hence, your status is screwed,

Smart driver will opt in Grab only and get 20% commission.
Doing both at 25% commission worth it?

any link for opt-in?

I was once banned by uber for low ratings. However after multiple email exchange, I managed to get them to reactivate my account. But still not doing trips for ublur. Last trip with ublur was July 2017.

Lower than what rating they will ban drivers?

I have seen drivers with rating 4.2x and 4.3x when I was a rider.

Not enough drivers and yet they are banning seasoned drivers.
Wonder when it will be my turn lol...

I drove for Uber in the last couple of days.
80+ trips, AR = 85%, CR = 25%

Overall, income is still as crappy as when I last stopped 3 months ago.
Upfront fare is fcked up, contact support also they don't layan.
Trip duration estimation is totally wrong.
After-work peak hour, 30min 2km trip is only ~rm5 upfront fare.
And this was in PJ area with 1.6x surge.

So I can conclude, fck Uber.
Drive Grab better, tutup mata also easily rm30/hour.

Uber nowadays tries to trick driver. U will get a ping with surge 2.0x but the upfront fare is no where near that figure. So they keep riders happy and screw the drivers.

Rm45 incentive is so ciput. Better just offline. Don't let rider take advantage use us for cheap rides and then give one star plus professionalism report.

it's not uber screwed u, it's the rider not stupid.....for seasoned riders, they will know roughly how much the fare..imagine, if far distance, surge 2x some more, unless the fella really urgent, they will request. Else, nearby trip, tutup mata jer lah......

Imagine if no surge, lagi u cry.....

Therefore, conclusion, chasing surge is stupidiest thing to do biggrin.gif

1) this ublur driver quest system give more attractive payout to the inactive driver hope to lure them back to ublur platform......

Ended up these driver only wait drive for them when incentive back to the attractive level after stop driving for sometimes.

2) Same as promo code to rider. Give some much promo code to rider, hope to promo ublur brand and convert these riders to be regular users....

Ended up rider only used ublur when there is promo code. Short distance some more + FOC. they even think something is wrong when no promo code offered to them.


Conclusion, they should change their official brand name to ublur.

Khosrowshahi outlined the challenges in Southeast Asia, where Uber has had to spend heavily to compete with local ride services Ola and Grab.

"The economics of that market are not what we want them to be," Khosrowshahi said. "I think it's over-capitalized at this point. We're going in, and we're leaning forward. But I'm not optimistic that market is going to be profitable any time soon."

But he dismissed the prospect of further consolidation similar to the merger deals Uber struck with competitors in China and Russia.
