For lux is 28%, omfg. Is this going slowly to fifty fifty?? And when u think about it, we have the power in our hands. If we stop doing our job just for 1 day during rush time, uber is down on his knees

Soon, we will have to work 14 hours so we can survive with this greedy uber

Everyone is sad now, don't buy anything. They just increased the commission to 25%. I am fokin mad

Like i said on the other forum, http://uberpeople.net/threads/prices-and-uber-fees-are-increasing.17741/ Uber is just a corporation and what corporations do???? making money, no matter what :mellow:

They definitely lost my respect!!!!!!! Its a race against time now:(

The nightmare became reality, they just increased the commission by 25% for exec, I just invested £3000 in car repairs hoping i will be ok for the next 16 months, but now i just realized i will lose in the next 16 months another £3000 :unsure: :unsure: :unsure: :unsure:

Hi guys, I am wonder if anyone done the replacement for timing chain. I have an bmw f10 520d 2010 and i noticed the noise from the back of the engine, went to bmw specialist and they confirm is the timing chain, needs to be replaced, looks like is a common fault for 2l diesel engines n47. They charge £1200 + vat for the operation. Any advices? Thanks

I am sure it happened to many of you. for example you're on Dover street waiting for a job and another uber car is parking on st James square, the guy from James square will receive the job from dover street while you're still waiting. It happened to me when i was on the phone with the other guy who was parking on James square. I did check my phone after this to see if i receive jobs, with my client account, it was fine. So ??????

Now we can use google maps on the iPhone?

Hahahahaha, i am sorry i have to attend to a very important job, i can't take you anymore

What is your average income/week and how many hours? I do around 20-30 hours / week with an average income £500-£600 after Uber commission If you do around 50-60 hours/week , can you clear £1000?

you can find it here http://goasis4cars.com/products/goasis OMG:)

Yes, indeed, but only from uneducated people, you will notice if you have an educated client , he will never treat you bad!! So ignore the peasants :)

Do NOT Include Insurance As A Cost Conventional wisdom suggests that car insurance is just as real of a cost of owning a car used for Uber as petrol and tires are. However, as an Uber driver, you should ignore your car insurance costs all together when determining your costs of driving for Uber. Why? For a few reasons. First of all, it's not a cost that is consumed per mile. It is consumed via time. When you pay for an insurance premium you are paying for a period of time to be insured, say a month, six months, or a year. Whether you drive 1 mile or 100,000 miles during that time doesn't change the cost. Second of all, you would be paying for it regardless of whether or not you drove for Uber. If you stopped driving for Uber, you would save just the premium on your car insurance. Also, if you happen to be a person who has to pay to park your vehicle at home, you should ignore this cost for the same reasons that you ignore insurance costs (except the one where Uber is providing it for you).

The more boxes you check, the better your odds of scraping some profit . These points are: 1. You work part time. Part time drivers can pick and choose when to drive, so they can drive only the busiest surge hours while full timers have to work both slow and peak hours. 2. You drive an older car ( 4 years old car) fuel efficient and is possibly fully paid for. Driving your spanking new 5 series or Prius £20K is the surest way to make a loss driving for Uber. Most people take fuel costs into account while neglecting other factors like normal wear and other routine maintenance. Brand new and newer (1-2 model years old) loose more value for every mile driven compared to an 4 year old car with 160,000 miles. 3. You drive in a relatively bigger city. There are simply more people (and more requests) per square mile in cities. Pickup distances are shorter and parking is expensive. People pay Uber going in the city but mostly drive themselves home after having couple of drinks or a nice meal. 4. You drive smart. Experienced drivers develop ways to become efficient, reduce downtime and miles between trips (dead miles) by working peak hours, avoiding longer pickups and taking advantage of incentive programs like guarantees and bonuses. . By my estimation if you have two of these four factors working against you then it is almost guaranteed that you make a net loss doing Uber.

Uber shall know their imperfect rating system from their data pool. During surging hours, clients just give the driver 1-star rating to object the price rip-off. Driver is the victim again. A few clients pretended polite and educated, but they will give you a 1-star. What a hypocrite!

Yes, indeed, i just changed the timing chain for my bmw f10 520d, £1700 bill. It is a bbc show regarding this problem, very disappointed with Bmw
