Reports of how much Uber ride-share drivers earn have ranged from a high of $100,000 a year in gross fares to a net loss after expenses. Uber recently provided information and calculations to that showed on average, drivers in Denver, Detroit, and Houston earned less than $13.25 an hour after expenses. Further calculations involving both Buzzfeed News and Uber found even lower driver earning estimates after expenses for each of the three cities, ranging from a low of $8.77 an hour in Detroit to $10.75 in Houston and $13.17 in Colorado,. Because Uber drivers are independent contractors who must track and cover their own expenses, Uber itself doesn’t have precise figures on driver earnings. Many Uber drivers would love nothing more than to be considered employees instead of contractors and are involved in lawsuits trying to have their status changed.
If the drivers were employees Uber would be required to reimburse their expenses, which would be a. The high-range $100,000 gross income figure for typical drivers was in 2013. The source for the figure was Uber itself, but the company now makes very different claims. In a Uber Chief Advisor David Plouffe said Uber and other ride-share companies are “helping people who are struggling to pay the bills, earn a little extra spending money, or transitioning between jobs.” “This is important, Plouffe continued. “Most drivers are not making a decision to do this for a lifetime or even for a long time.” Plouffe said that in the U.S. Uber has more than 400,000 drivers who make at least four trips a month and many more drivers who only do one or two trips a month to “to earn a little extra cash.” But what about the drivers who drive for Uber full-time? If they purchased or leased a car to be full-time Uber drivers, they may feel stuck, especially if they are taking home less after expenses than expected.
The BuzzFeed News hourly net income estimates are based on calculation methodology that Uber reportedly called “solid” and on assumptions about driver expenses. Experienced, savvy drivers, of course, may discover ways to maximize their net income by carefully choosing times of service and locations and by managing their expenses. For most people, however, being a full-time Uber driver doesn’t sound like a great fall-back job plan, much less a soli.

Connelv01, Needs Work Firstly, let’s talk about the poor GPS system Uber has as of late. I’ve have three Uber’s cancel on me in one day while I was trying to make it to work on time bc Uber put the wrong location for my pickup even after I chose my home as the pickup location.
This has happened on several occasions and I had to dispute cancellation fees and ride fees. Then, on more than one occasion I had the unfortunate case of my Uber starting the trip without me in the car and I had to cancel the ride and again dispute cancellation charges. And last but not least I want to touch on the Ride Pass and why I advise that you don’t waste your money on it.
The way the Ride Pass is advertised you would think that you get a set fare for all of your rides as long as they’re within New York City. Well that couldn’t be further from the truth because as it turns out the “set fare” only applies to the places (to and from) in which you were going when you purchased the Ride Pass. So let’s say you were going from home to work and they gave you a set pool price and a set X price that only applies to you going from home to work and back. Every other ride is priced at the flat rate fare and it’s subject to change every time.
All and all it’s a scam, ten dollars isn’t much but it’s the principle and the false advertisement that’s going on with the purchase of a Ride Pass. So if you want to save yourself ten dollars I say skip on the Ride Pass and just stick to the regular prices. Developer Response, Hi, we're always looking to improve your experience with Uber.

Uber is Uber, it’s as good as lyft but pricier, we call know what we’re getting with Uber.
What you may not know is the customer service is an absolute joke. They literally won’t give out a number to call or email, and as far as I can see online, they literally don’t have one (even though their website currently says they do give you the number), or if they do they’ve done a great job of making it very unintuitive to find. What they do is, give you a preset list of 4 or 5 possible issues you may have with a specific ride (so no complaints if 5 drivers in a row cancel right before they are at your location). If you click on the thing from the list they just run your trip through some automated program that determines if you get your money back. My most recent incident my driver took a terrible route, then took two wron turns, adding 30 minutes to what was originally estimated to be a 30 minute trip total, and the navigation app he was using said it would be another 30 minutes.
At that point it was literally quicker to walk the last 1 ½ miles. So I got out and walked, but it shows up as me having completed the trip, so whether I select driver took poor route or trip was too long, it just spits out an answer based on incomplete information. Clear lack of effort on their part, luckily for me they have competitors that care about the customer experience more then they do.
