this is real this is real life in St Louis Missouri right now if you guys don’t turn your Uber e account into a ride Share account you don’t need to pick people up if you don’t do that right now to capture these surges you’re doing it wrong
This is real game for a lot of uber eats drivers.. i just got back on uber x .. A lot of y'all are missing out on money.. Let's see at night on the weekends, when everybody's going out when the restaurants start to slow down and close, there's a lot of rideshare money to be made at those times..
The surges are not worth the effort. Yeah, that $ 30.00 sounds nice. However, if you only get one and then it disappears. It is still only $ 30.00 and you can't do much with it.
$30. then they reduce the original price of the ride by 50%. Oh, sure you make more money than normal for this 1 ride. Meanwhile, the next 20 rides, you are making less than a normal ride with some of the normal 'surges' they have. Surge system is a rigged pos deception.
If you place your account on ride share account believe me you will regret it.. I did it and I got low ball offer for 3 months for Uber eats. Uber will expect you to do more rides then deliverys.. you'll get low ball delivery after 4 minutes I couldn't take it I called Uber and demanded that take ride share of my account the rep said you can turn it off in app I said it's been off for a month add rideshare is still hindering my account. After arguing with the rep for about 10 minutes he finally deactivated ride shares and immediately my phone exploded put deliveries.
Uber is bad bad and trash after all it’s a company that has Jay z as an investor.Guy became a billionaire from getting customers to pay lots of money for bad service
I did uber with my personal car and I will never do it again. They charge the customer crazy money but the driver get Pennie’s on the dollar I even rented a car to do uber and was barely making money to pay almost $500 a week to pay for the car. I stick to the food cause to pays more
Never in my 6 years working for uber have I ever seen anything like this! Granted my area is small but,unfortunately I doubt we will ever see this here 😢
I wouldn't do ride share unless they provided me with an armored vehicle.
Operative word—-》 provides me with the dog gone vehicle and it better have a bulletproof partition between me and the passenger(s). Preferably tinted. One way observable from my side is optional.
In the Orange County, CA area we don't get surges like that. Most I have seen on a busy Saturday night with a concert getting out is +$10 but that's very rare. $30 surges aren't going to last. Uber will take that away.
Yeah, I just had a $30 surgeon. Uber wouldn’t give it to me because it was a reservation trip. They never told me this. I did not know this. I’ve been doing this 7 1/2 years garrulous. The passenger shouldn’t have to pay the search pricing if a driver picks up the passenger that is reservationthen that price should be guaranteed. It was 30 bucks that I’m out of and it pisses me off.
Chasing surges is foolish. Even if you happen to be in the area at the right time. The ride will likely be going a long distance and by time you drop the person off. The surge will be over and you ultimately only get one ride at that rate. So, $ 30.00 one time isn't really going make much of a difference in your life. You would need like 10 rides with these sort of payouts that would really are a difference.
Update::: looks like they took this completely AWAY for ubereats drivers. After toggling back and forth, there is only “surge” pay on the map WHILE I have “people rides” turned on in my settings. It goes right back away after unchecking that box
I have a 2014 Honda civic and they turned me down because of some scratches on the pain , they want pretty much everything perfect cosmetic pretty much a new car.

Shhhhhhhhh…..
They barely send requests if you have these surges
Im glad youre thoughtful to help others.
The surges are bs half the time
You don't need to pick people up?

Must get Driver Power app!
What do you mean turn it into a rideshare and not pick people up? Can I have it on and not pick people up is that real?

Right! I do that! I don’t do ride share just food deliveries

Surges just mean more competition in that area. Go to the spots with less surge and you will get more orders

What I do is have deliveries and pet rides on. That way I can get surges on delivery orders without ever really getting any pet rides at all

I've seen it all before. 🙄
The reasons are many.
Dumb ass
I don't do people in my car! Nope
There is no surge where I live anymore.

How do you do it without picking people up

way to elaborate bud

I'm confused… So we can get the surge for Uber taxi even though we're doing deliveries??
The fake surge. Don’t fall for it?
The surges do not matter because Uber eats allows the customers to tip bait the driver.😅😅😅
The payout will be better if you pick up a person not long ago caught a 30 dollar surge drove 8 miles for 77 dollars
Hiiii I pray that everyone is doing good I just wanted to say that Jesus loves everyone
Haha. They just got rid of the option to select pets or priority due to this.
I have not seen surges on Uber Eats, how do i check, where do i go in the screen? Just new to UE
Brother… I picked up at jets Pizza in Ballwin Missouri the other day that I already had a $30 pick up and got $100 tip.
It was a $300 day

How
In my market they’ll deduct that surge after the delivery.
What does that mean?
Ive been online for hours not a single order in southbay LA. Im done with this junk.
I did that but have rides turned off. Do you you need to have rides on? I dont want ride requests but i want to see surge
Are you saying you will earn surges for Uber Eats just by turning on ride share but still declining ride share? Is that how it works?
