Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many customers expressed dissatisfaction with the service, citing issues like drivers not showing up for scheduled rides, unexpected cancellations, and billing discrepancies related to uncompleted services. Pricing was a frequent concern, with many feeling that fares were too high, especially during peak times, and some reported being charged more than the initial quote. Problems with payments were also common, including incorrect charges and difficulty resolving billing disputes. Reviewers often found the staff unhelpful and the customer service extremely poor, characterized by unresponsiveness, a lack of direct human contact, and an inability to resolve issues effectively. However, some people also felt that the service was generally excellent, appreciating the convenience and speed compared to public transport, especially when carrying luggage. A few customers also highlighted positive interactions with friendly and courteous drivers, and some found the cars to be immaculate.

My bad experiences with Uber in Egypt and Kenya

My experiences with Uber in countries like Kenya and Egypt have been quite negative. The prices displayed in the app are clearly far too low to be fair, and the drivers don't know them. Therefore, they first ask for the Uber price and, in most cases, refuse it. The booked ride then has to be canceled, and private negotiations begin. This is frustrating for everyone. Something like this happened to me again just yesterday at Hurghada Airport: Uber offered me a ride for about 300 EGP (5 Euros), but the driver wanted 15 euros what I eventually paid for a 20km ride. In other countries like Taiwan and UAE it works much better.

Super poor customer service

It appears from your score rating the likelihood of receiving a response is not expected. I scheduled a ride for a 6:45 pm pick up. When I confirmed the time reverted to 6:11 pm. I immediately canceled and rescheduled. I was charged for canceling that ride 1 minute after Uber booked with the wrong time. Then I rescheduled the ride and the return ride for 8:45 pm. The 8:45 pm ride was not confirmed and the driver never showed up. On top of that the only customer service support is AI, chat, or messaging. AI is a complete joke and chat has to escalate to messaging which will respond in 6 to 12 hours. I guess I'll go back to Taxis, at least they are more relsuper

Very comvinient

Very comvinient, and reliable, but App shows the picking up time inaccurate, most of the time, app says so fast within 5 min, but in reality, plus 5 minutes or more.

The driver was on-time and courteous

The driver was on-time and courteous. We gave me landmarks info as we drove by on my way to my destination the DCA Airport. He was great in conversation and his driving was superb!! I gave him my gate and dropped point and he advised me to a different location because it would be closer to the TSA checkpoint and to my gate!! Very Enjoyable Ride....100 stars to my driver!!!

Safe and trustworthy

The two drivers had clean vehicles and were good drivers. I got to my destination and back with no problems. The Uber app is easy to use and I find Uber drivers safe and trustworthy.

They're quick

They're quick, fast, reliable. I feel safe when I use them especially with their safety features they have on their app. Most taxi companies in my area dont have safety features on their apps and if you have problems and issues and you call and report them to dispatch nothing gets done about it, whereas with Uber, they fix the problem immediately and if you feel unsafe in any way they have options for you to get help immediately. They're a on the little pricey side but fast, easy, convenient, and having extra safety features is worth the extra amount in today's day and age. For the people in the back, Always tip your driver's! Its proper etiquette and its how they make a living and its their paycheck, dont think just because your ride one way to go 2 miles and it cost $16.00 that it goes to the driver, because it doesn't. The driver only gets the tips and thats it. Be a decent human being and TIP YOUR DRIVERS! I highly recommend Uber over a regular taxi

Uber put my health in danger and want to avoid the consequences

I was told to get to St Thomas ASAP for a head scan due to neurological concerns. I would have gotten TFL but there are strikes on the Underground which makes travel as a disabled person even worse. I booked a priority Uber that was meant to come in 3 minutes. The driver did not come until 15 minutes later. Then, when the driver arrives, he says he doesn't drive to central London because of the congestion charge. As he is giving me attitude, I tell him that he accepted this ride and he should have checked the location ahead of time. The foolish driver tells me that he went off the postcode, which he misread as SE17. St Thomas' postcode is SE1 7EH. Because it showed that I had a booked trip, Uber would not let me rearrange another taxi and my account was temporarily frozen.

When I put in the complaint to Uber, it is clear the agents read from a script and the company does not hire people with common sense. The "manager" (her name is A***) said someone would call me back.

Uber is so spiness that they have attempted to close my case without someone calling.

I told A*** if something bad happens, I will take action against the company because all I wanted was for them to sort things out on their end.

Worst way to spend the day before my birthday

The Uber that I’d ordered picked up the wrong people and set off for my address. Told me it had picked up within 2 minutes Don’t know what happened to them after that? Clearly didn’t check name. I had to order another Uber to take us home. First time I’d used the app and really not impressed.
