Uber Breaking Terms for Drivers with Standard Mode Punishment
Uber removed my advantage mode today. This means I can only receive offers from Trip Radar, all of which have a BOOKED MILEAGE RATE below the Federal Standard Deduction, meaning I would LOSE money by accepting any of them.
Uber is doing this because I accidentally accepted a Shared ride that I couldn't fulfill, but it had two riders and Uber is counting each rider as a separate cancellation, despite only accepting one ride.
Uber refused to offer me any phone support for about 5 hours today until I complained on Twitter/X. Once I was able to get phone support, they have hung up on me four separate times when I've requested to speak with a supervisor.
Uber is saying I must complete Trip Radar rides until my cancellation rate falls back to 8%, but they REFUSE TO TELL ME HOW MANY RIDES THAT WILL REQUIRE. Uber also refuses to provide the data used to calculate my cancellation rate.
This behavior by Uber is a de-facto punishment, and according to the September 30, 2024 Driver Fare Addendum, administrative penalties must be administered as Set-Offs. This means that Uber is violating their own TOS for drivers by financially punishing us this way.
If any Lawyers out there see this, please DM me. I have complete recordings of all of this.
