i tried uber once and checked for a ride time cause i wanted to leave ina few min. it was normal price. check it again 3 min later to reserve the ride, surge pricing. go to another persons phone and look up the same ride, no surge fee. that's suspect. it's almost as if they recorded that i had already searched for that ride but didnt order so when i searched again they jacked up the price? wtf uber

Airlines do the same thing. It's to make you think "Oh poo poo, if I don't book now it'll go even higher!"

They intentionally don't mention the whole insurance problem on their website.

For example they brag about their policy, even though getting caught by your insurance company doing commercial work with a personal insurance policy is a easy way to get blacklisted.

they are independent contractors. It's their responsibility to sort that out not Uber's.

I had to get a ride into work today but my ride won't be available until 2 hours after I clock out. So I'm gonna go Uber home because it's cheaper than a taxi.
