DONT SETTLE FOR THIS GARBAGE !!! I DROVE UBER/LYFT OVER THE PANDEMIC. I quit driving in January to sell cars for a franchise dealer. made 8500 my first full month! dont settle for this. you are worth so much more than what these companies tell you!
Last week I had a trip on Lyft where the driver showed me on the app that they were paying $34 and Lyft was paying me 13. I couldn't believe they were keeping that much of the trip charge. She was very generous with her tip so in the end I was paid well however it just doesn't make sense that I would get 38% of a trip. I think that part of why we get such a lower percentage is when Lyft gives us a trip bonus they are keeping a portion of each trip and then just paying you on the back end. You're not really getting a bonus you're just getting what you should have been paid up front.
Good job president torsten rideshare worldwide president you are doing a fabulous job and I like everything. We need changes. Charge customer 53 $ and pay me 15$. I drove 104 rides this week 95 hours and I couldn't make 1000$.
Remember - we’re not sharing a goddamn thing - I am a professional transportation provider, my car - my abilities as a driver are commercial assets available for purchase. I’m not a F’n bumpkin driving for pocket change.
Very easy teacher they found the form to charge the maximum to the passenger with no surge for us and on that way they keep the all money calling now external fess and comercial insurance fees where is no control and they charge whatever they want on each trip because is the surge that we use to have but now is call it comercial insurance and external fees
Drivers have to stand up and fight for their rights. We are in the 21st century do not let anyone treat you like garbage. Drivers have so many leverages in this game but they choose to be cowards . All Drivers just turn your apps off for 72hrs protest, uber and Lyft shares will fall badly and they will listen to your concerns.

Wow! That's when you say, "Are you kidding me? How about I just cancel the ride and you can pay me direct what you think the ride should be worth. We will probably be in agreement." See what the rider says! When riders wake up, drivers & riders are United for a better cause... OUR FREAKING ECONOMY!!
I think these companies cap/throttle rides, that way they keep us making $18-20/hr. I noticed this after I did cherry picked the other day and got a great ride and rider. The trip was about 25 minutes long and gave me $11.40 for 7 miles. The rider was cool and we had a nice conversation, she tipped me $20 in the app, but after that ride I didn't get another ping in over an hour and half, yet I was in a busy area, even saw other drivers picking up riders even when I was the closest driver to the pax.
I was online last week for 43.5 hrs .. 111 rides... made $1,072.44 or $24.65 hr.. or $9.66 per ride. To stay online for 43.5 hours it took 7 days, because here in Vegas, when you get a ride to the strip you turn your app off and drive another 20 minutes to get off the strip. $90 of that is tips or $22 hr.
I’ve had passengers pay me cash tips lately because they heard how Lyft takes tips and underpay drivers. The word is getting out….. it’s sad that these companies are preying on people in need 😢
uber an lyft should have to offer a real job to people, providing their own car, insurance, an benifits. that would put an end to their service overnight. so the cost is on us until we rage an demand a standard transparent rate. time plus miles combined, both count. 1 dollar a minute an 1 dollar a mile. At least. the law should be theres a meter tallying time an distance. not the stupid time estimate that stays at 1 minute for 5 minutes.
Thank you right here professor yeah this gig company Uber it’s Uber, whelming the Uber charge riders and make drivers Uber Worked. It’s not Uber funny with Lyft. It’s a Lyft off , but your Bills and amortization payments will be Lyft behind, I was Uber worked & under paid!
I'm an Uber Diamond driver, Uber Eats, connect express, package delivery, and shop n pay independent contractor in Los Angeles and agree with your channel. Help me understand where the restaurant stands in the Uber Eats equation? I get orders with paid receipts of $50, $100 type orders and the delivery is nothing. Restaurant seems to be winning in all of this, even when order not ready they get paid in full and higher menu prices for using delivery app
How does every business not do the same? That seems to be the basic business model. Why not make money on both the customer AND the employee? That's the "for profit" world we live in.
When a rider gives an Uber driver tip for a certain ride (especially when thattip is very high like $10, $20, etc), Uber will gradually deduct this amount from your next couple of rides until it brings you to your pay rate. Your fare earning will gradually reduce until Uber makes sure that it recoup that tip from your rides. This is how Uber is dangerously using AI to exploit drivers.
Unfortunately the recent policies have allowed business to do this. They get tax breaks for doing it as well. If they were not on the market, the billions would come to tge drivers. They are deep routed into lobbiest and with google. The FAA is in place for travel. They need to take over and create RSA with stringent rules to protect both riders and drivers.
A lot of part-timers lost more money. I lost the extra 1 dollar for EV because I am not going to chase 200 rides in a month. We also lose the little quest money since I mostly work on weekends. They moved the quest deadline to Sunday 4am from Monday 4am. Is not even worth it. My grandson made more money delivering pizza at a pizza restaurant than I made working more hours and driving more miles
Virtually every passenger I talk to agrees that Uber and Lyft are ripping them off. While I have gained a few private customers its hard to beat the convenience of the apps but I am not giving up. If you have any tips on how to convert customers please share in a video.
There is only way to fight with Uber and lyft. All the drivers just stop driving, and stop accepting trip riders The act of receiving a driving request from Uber or Lyft is to help them.
Crazy part is there's no more uber hubs so that's alot more money they saving so where's the money going. They are saving millions not paying rent on all these commercial property.
It's time for a public option! A rideshare company owned by the federal government that uses proceeds to support their services like Medicaid! There will be zero cost except for designing and running the app!
All the drivers we need to put a sign that a passenger can see that says if you are tipping, please share screenshot with the driver to assure that are tips Are not being taken from us
Why Uber lyft doordash does not unified every city pay. Every city drivers are struggling with different fare pays. There algorithm are seeing how much drivers are willing to drive with that cheap dirt pay, so the algorithm hold that minimum
too bad i forgot to screen shot my 3 outta 2 rides with lyft today. I will start doing it every trip. one instance, lyft gave me an upfront fare of 35$ with 5 dollar surge included. well guess what , drop the rider off, and they only paid me 29$ . we all need to screen capture what we accept so we can blow this up this shady practice
Guys when a rider gets in your car tell them to cancel the ride and you will do it for less than what they paid on Uber/Lyft and u make more and Uber doesn't make s**!
I dont understand why Uber and Lyft just cant pay $1 a mile from you accept the trip to you drop the rider of, Uber and Lyft would still make tons of money on top of making drivers happy
Ayatholla Dara and you too naive little Davey and all the sadistic uber stockholders and corrupt politicians, you are all on the wrong train, and with every station you move away from reality, the return journey gets more expensive.
I was unjustly deactivated about a week ago on Uber platform after continuous lies and allegations Made by riders, where do I go from here @rideshare professor

What?? Not even $1000??
How?
You're killing your car
You need to look for a different job. That's awful

They are using those fees to finance and test self driving cars or robot taxis to replace us faster

Now we know why do many venture capital companies passed on Uber when they were first starting out

Yesterday was particular bad for riders in my area… One ride was $80… I explained: “$80? And a 14 mi ride? I’ll probably get $18.” She was horrified.
Wow! That's when you say, "Are you kidding me? How about I just cancel the ride and you can pay me direct what you think the ride should be worth. We will probably be in agreement." See what the rider says! When riders wake up, drivers & riders are United for a better cause... OUR FREAKING ECONOMY!!
I agree it's all the same across these gig worker apps.
Crooked uber and lift we do all the work and they get all the money
The title of this post hits it on the nail head

That's the games they play as if they want to see us struggling and get bare minimum

Whats your gas?
I’ve had passengers pay me cash tips lately because they heard how Lyft takes tips and underpay drivers. The word is getting out….. it’s sad that these companies are preying on people in need 😢

That’s taxi has a meter ,you can not cheat the customer or the driver
Great video PROFESSOR! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤
Thank you right here professor yeah this gig company Uber it’s Uber, whelming the Uber charge riders and make drivers Uber Worked. It’s not Uber funny with Lyft. It’s a Lyft off , but your Bills and amortization payments will be Lyft behind, I was Uber worked & under paid!
I already knew a long time ago. That is the strategy of the ridesharing company
nice find rideshare professor

These companies should never have gone public. You need to get the teamsters to push for United States wide union to shut wall street crap down.
Totally agree.
Citizens are working for peanuts to line shareholders pockets.
Uber and lyft need to be regulated nationwide.
What about Atlanta, I reached out to you about helping us here in Georgia

Exactly 💯

Does Lyft respond to BBB complaints?
What's the federal government on this The federal government can put it into Uber overnight by making them pay one standard rate
They're busy sending your money to Ukraine and israel

They moved the quest deadline to Sunday 4am from Monday 4am. Is not even worth it. My grandson made more money delivering pizza at a pizza restaurant than I made working more hours and driving more miles
There are no quest these days.
I had some one hour long ride lately, the riders mentioned they will tip me well on the app, but the tips never showed up.
They Lied !!!! My favorite line is ..... " I'll get you in the App!!!!"
We need to do the protest every month.
Sir If you dont mind,make a video about there unfair rating system.thank you.

does anyone have ride for hire insurance? is it worth it?
I share to my passenger everyday that we both get screw.
Lyft makes bad gos t
o make rides longer when they bill customer
too bad i forgot to screen shot my 3 outta 2 rides with lyft today.

If this is happening every day, every single minute why there are no lawsuits?
I just deliver groceries I hate people now and once in awhile I get free groceries .
Not that I disagree with you Torsten but with a source like Counterpunch I tend to be extremely skeptical.
What if the drivers refused to take a trash!
What's new?
Guys when a rider gets in your car tell them to cancel the ride and you will do it for less than what they paid on Uber/Lyft and u make more and Uber doesn't make s**!
I dont understand why Uber and Lyft just cant pay $1 a mile from you accept the trip to you drop the rider of, Uber and Lyft would still make tons of money on top of making drivers happy
Greed that's why ever since they went public in the stock market
Portal to Portal !!!!! Been saying that for years !!!!
they are freaking criminals, they are brokers banking 90-95% of the profit wich is insane
I just finished my last trip . Rider paid $80 and I got $34 and I think they are stealing tips too
I just did my ride driver paid 32.98$ to u er and I only 12.58$ what heck is that the driver sent me a screenshot I wanna fight Uber for their thefts
the CEO's seem like a f'America type company.. don't seem to really care..
Ayatholla Dara and you too naive little Davey and all the sadistic uber stockholders and corrupt politicians, you are all on the wrong train, and with every station you move away from reality, the return journey gets more expensive.

This is nothing new. Been happening since day day 1
I don't know why nobody can spot this shit
