Some of you may remember my original post about Uber’s driver compensation. I haven’t been active on Reddit in a while because, frankly, I got tired of dealing with the negative comments, personal insults, and trolls.
I welcome different opinions, but disrespect is another story.
Well, here’s PART TWO!
I’ve been driving for Uber since 2021, and after reviewing years of earnings statements, trip breakdowns, and deductions, my concerns about driver compensation and transparency have only grown.
I’ve documented substantial deductions from passenger fares, unexplained adjustments, missing tips, and long-distance trip offers that barely cover the time and expenses involved.
Let’s talk about the numbers.
Drivers provide the vehicles, pay for gas, insurance, repairs, maintenance, and depreciation, and absorb unpaid pickup and waiting time.
Yet we’re often left questioning how our earnings are calculated and why certain deductions appear on our statements.
I’m not asking for special treatment. I’m asking for transparency, accountability, and fair compensation.
I have screenshots and records supporting the concerns I’ve raised, and I’m interested in comparing experiences with other drivers.
🚨 A QUICK MESSAGE TO THE TROLLS:
If you disagree, that’s fine. Respectful discussions are welcome. But if you’re here to insult, bully, or belittle someone for speaking about their experiences, KEEP SCROLLING!
Personal attacks will get you blocked. It’s that simple. 😂
NOW, FELLOW UBER DRIVERS, I HAVE THREE QUESTIONS:
Have you noticed unexplained deductions or adjustments in your earnings?
Have you compared what passengers pay with what you actually receive?
After calculating ALL your expenses, are you truly making a profit?
ARE WE GETTING PAID FAIRLY, OR ARE WE GETTING PLAYED?
Let’s hear your experiences. Let’s compare the numbers. And let’s keep the conversation respectful.
PART TWO — BECAUSE THESE QUESTIONS STILL DESERVE ANSWERS! 🚗💰

Please expect a one star and a block. No matter how high your score is because that's going to be a history.

Note the car has perfect working AC and no smell of weed or any kind. The passenger asked for AC because she said the humidity came from the window open. I'm like lol

Conversation goes like this

Driver: Is the AC comfortable?
Passenger: can you make AC a bit higher?
Driver: (turn ac into almost full blast) sure! How is it now? Let me know if it becomes too strong :)
Passenger: thank you
Driver: np
Passenger: can you let me roll down window?
Driver: (.... Wtf I guess she want air instead?) ok, sure. (Proceed to turn off AC, because it's hot and humid outside)
Passenger: did you turn off the AC 
Driver: yes, you want air instead right?
Passenger: no I want both, it's humidity you know? 
Driver:.....................

UPDATE: A bit insight. Sooooo about 50% ppl voted down on this post after 5k view.....
