How do any of you guys get 30+% acceptance rate let alone keep it that high in order to have Gold status???
Believe it or not, Uber actually used to be a decent gig but that was years ago before all the bullshit changes and relying entirely on a poverty wage algorithm to calculate rate for time) distance. Back when AR didn't matter in order to have Gold+ perks, the best of which is the free ASU benefit. I was all set to sign up having taken my 2000 trips and keeping my rating good. Then last year right before the fall semester started Uber quietly added AR criteria and 30% no less which is why I'm no longer able to qualify. I tried my best to get my rate higher as it was down to 1% plenty of times. It's simple, with gas prices at all time highs, and not having a 50 mpg hybrid, offers need to be at minimum $2 per mile. Really should be higher but you won't ever get anything if you wait for more. Highest I ever got was 24% and that was last week. I thought I might have a change to get to 30 and be able to sign up for ASU finally, but their "make us rich and drivers poor_ algorithm must've realized I was close and literally sent me nothing but insulting poverty stricken offers even a homeless man wouldn't accept. And just like that I'm back down to 10%. Tired of the bullshit and all the apps suck really which is why I wanted to do school without going into crippling debt with student loans. Just wondering how TF the ones over 30% do it. U absolutely must be paying to go to work if you are accepting the shit I've been sent. I mean people have bills so can't be accepting 18 mile each way for $6 offers just to increase AR so please enlighten me how you do it. Thanks and Fuck Uber
