Is it insane that you expose how corrupt these platforms are, squeezing riders to the MAX, and then to fix the corruption, some Drivers actually look to their riders who are ALREADY getting COOKED to further tip?! They get outraged at the crooked system and they take it out on their riders! Insane!
Thank you Leeeeeeeeeead Attorney! I'm always checking you out brotha. But yes, definitely a lot of antitrust and corruption going on, but you know Tony West is running legal at Uber...and that's Kamala's brother in law. Uber knew what they were doing when they hired him on from the Justice Dept. And you're right; we can't expect riders to TIP after they already paid too much! They're killing our local economies and we can't keep any money in our communities like they did on Black Wall Street, where the dollar circulated the community for up to 21 days. Now, the dollar is gone from our communities within 24hrs because of corporations that use TECH to rip us off! Appreciate you stopping by, brotha. Glad to know you even watch. I'm always on your lives cracking up! LOL!
@@timetowakeup6302 Definitely not looking like some pigeon-picking-popcorn drivers out here! LOL! They more crap they send us, the more riders we tell the truth to and convert them to private rides. We can help our economy, but riders gotta be willing to say OK and cancel that ride for a better deal for everybody involved.
@@MicDropBBQ I pay $150 for Uber Black XLs to go 16 miles (25 min) to the airport in Atlanta. I would LOVE for drivers to convert me lol! Iâve only had one guy try by giving me his business card, but Iâve never had any driver propose your offer. Honestly, the initiative should be on you drivers to make the offer because (1) we donât know how much you get out of the $150, but we think it must be a lot if you continue to take riders, and (2) we are just trying to get to the airport fast, and if you get offended by the offer bc you're a company man and cancel the trip, then we could be late to the airport, which is the LAST thing we want as riders. But I would LOVE to give a driver $110 cash for 16 miles instead of $150 plus tip! Uber is absolutely cooking us riders lol.
Lately, down here in the Rio Grande Valley (TX) I've been noticing that Lyft is charging the riders the same amount they were charging around this same time last year BUT us drivers are getting less than half of what the riders are paying. For lift, I've been cherrypicking the rides that I accept because if Lyft isn't willing to pay me for all the wear and tear I'm putting on my car, I'm like "F the passenger! They can beat feet!". It's already bad enough Lyft won't give us a FIFO queue at the busiest airport of the three in the area and they rarely give bonuses at said airport. As a result, my acceptance rate has fallen to 4% because in our area, the most lucrative paying rides come from the airport but without an airport queue, we get flooded with trip requests asking us to drive 10-12 miles away to pick up a passenger and drop them off 2 miles from the pickup. To Hell with that!
Yeah this wealth hoarding by rich sociopaths is really getting under my skin. I am also sick of socio-economic lane enforcers like the ones you find in TexASS!
They bring in the lowest-paid people on Earth from other countries while taxing Americans with prices like this. THAT creates the wealth gap. Many American's can't function on INCREASED rents and interest rates in 2024, but having 1990 salaries. We gotta battle back. Enough is enough.
@@BroadwayLTDProductions I'll stay j my lane as long as it's not a safety hazard. When the right lane is loaded with potholes that makes it impossible to dodge one after another, I'd rather explain the potholes (as if they don't already know) rather than get pulled over for driving erratically trying to avoid a blowout from the potholes. Uber Etal should be getting bills from all the states' legislators to start contributing back to the infrastructure and roads of all the states they have been permitted to operate in.
Its happened a few times before in the past, its how the I.C.C. trys to bankrupt americans out of there homes to make major profits. But time they are running out for time, they are ripping us off! We will be able to pay off a home in 6yrs and a car in 3 yrs once the criminal cabal is taken down! They can only stretch the timeline out by 7yrs according to the navy officials that have earned there eagles know this! There will be a big arrest coming soon for this criminal empire that has been controlling things behind the scenes for the past decade!!!!!There is a chain of events to come, the worse the enemy can do is delay the events for such a period.... Time is elastic it can be stretched but it will bounce back to the orginal timeline!!!!
Oh, YoungBoi...they killing pockets and ain't putting nothing back into our community! This is all money for the elites. They pull it from riders' wallets and we ain't seeing that money ever again!
Iâm so glad I started listening to you over a year ago Iâve been doing this thing wrong the whole time thinking Iâm driving for 12 hours and coming back barely making $200. I definitely felt like a slave in the plantationâŠđ I quit for about 6 months and thought about getting back to it yesterday until I turned the app on and it started giving rides for a 20 mins at $8 and doesnât include the time to get there..WTF? NawâŠgetting these cards printed and delivered overnightâŠPRIVATE RIDES ONLY!
Already, Drew. They out here robbing our communities, man. Pisses me off. They gon stop sending rides to folks sooner or later and just start forcing people's hand to do cash rides all day long. If the app don't ping, I'm getting out the car and marketing wherever I go. I'll go to Amazon and put my card there like USE ME AND SAVE!!
@@MicDropBBQ Yep they paid off the state legislators and the governor in Texas to block local municipalities from making ordinances relating to screwber and gryft.
We had Kroger in Memphis when I was kid. Yup. They used to have people in there looking TIRED as a mfka, all the time. My boy Adrian used to work there and he was the only one that was energetic. LOL! Even the manager looked like he crawled outta bed all the time. They had folks working long shifts for NO PAY. And that was in Frayser, just south of Millington, so it wasn't even super expensive back in the day. But nobody wanted to work there because the pay was so low and they always had to work. We all only saw Adrian AT work! LOL! That's how much they worked!
@@MicDropBBQ that crazy bro I worked for Kroger for 8.5 years and I was fired over stealing a soda which I never stole shit in my life so on July 3th of last year I was told get my shit and weâll call you when weâre done investigating well they brought me back 2 weeks ago later to discuss it basically the union wanted me to beg them for my job back and I wouldnât do that cuzz at that point I would be kissing ass and I donât kiss ass and I took it on the chin and been struggling since cuzz I have a disability Jeff so itâs hard for me to walk I use a cane bro
When people send me emails about what's going on around the country, you know I'm gon call it what it is. We the 300. We standing strong in all markets! They see us coming!
I like listening to you man. It's so refreshing hearing someone capable of critical thinking and being able to convey it to the audience. The execs running these apps are straight up thugs, hopefully your videos can open more and more eyes.
Appreciate that, Chaz. Real talk, brotha. I do my best, as I'm passionate about truly helping the people around me. Always been that way, as some folks are designed to always hold themselves above the crowd. I stay in the crowd...in the trenches, trading ideas and solutions back and forth til we figure out what's going on, and how to get out of the hole. Even when I was corporate, I just didn't fit in with the greed and the sneakiness of the shit always going on. It was all for money and power, and I would be thinking, "...we got workers here trying to buy cars and townhouses and put kids thru school, so we got the money. Why they lying? Just to get more money for themselves as executive bonuses?" The shit was pure greed, man. Accounting - to me - was about truth and for accounting for that truth. I couldn't keep doing accounting around people who didn't like the truth. The numbers don't lie, so if they wanted someone to make the numbers lie, I wasn't the guy for the job.
"i looked on the app, it said the rider paid $30, but the rider said he paid over $40" lyft & uber hide the REAL total paid, they dont show the driver's app all the "express fees" or "prime time / surge pricing" or "ev" or "green ride" or any other upcharge they force the rider to pay. they do this to further hide how badly they're screwing drivers so you cant tell how far from "70% of the fare" you're NOT even getting.
I got asked today if I think HUM is going to compete with Uber & Lyft? I said yes because people are tired of their ever changing fees that aren't transparent how they come up with those fees Drivers are tired of using apps that take 50-70% of the fare. So yes, I try convert every ride I can. I'm tired of leaving 50-70% on the table.
Another TKO video, Jeff!! đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„ Freakin Jaw dropping on the exposure of price gouging the RIDERS! I hope every rider watching this shares it with 10 friends with this headline: CAN YOU BELIEVE HOW GOUGED WE'VE BEEN GETTING BY THESE APPS? WATCH THIS!! đźđźđźđźđź
Closing drivers out of the app because you don't want to pay them... At that point the apps should just clarify to the drivers, your services are no longer needed we're going to be letting 20% of our IC's go so we're not overly saturated and can pay the drivers what the law is making us. But instead, they're letting the drivers make a little money for the hour, and then shutting them down until the times up, and then letting them back on later once that time period is up so they don't make too much money. These apps are definitely clamping down and showing how low they are willing to go.
I've done maybe 15 trips in the past week with them, and I've gotten tips on maybe FIVE. I laugh that shit off now because they're ripping people off and I'd REALLY rather convert them to a private rider and get them off that corporate plantation anyways. I used to complain about not getting tips, but now I just convert like 3 rides/day and that's my tip. LOL! I get like $100 on 3 rides instead of getting $38 on 3 rides on Lyft.
Maybe we need to go back to Taxis. My dad used to be a cab driver and make decent money back in the 90s and 2000s. He only had to pay like $100 a week to the company and he kept the rest. He had his own car. If he got a cab from the company then it was like $150 a week that he paid the company. We need a taxi app like that.
With the way the market is going, paying $100 is a deal. If you make $200/day on Uber - and Uber is taking half - then you really made $400/day. Them taking $200 every day for a week is $1,400/week just to drive on the Uber app. Now $100/week don't look too bad.
Taxis in my city NE corridor do the same thing we do. They converting. They tell pax let's do cash only keep meter off. I get pax complaining all the time. Because the taxi guys don't have another option. No cash app Venmo or square credit card reader. Pax ain't walking around with cash coming from train station or airport. Everyone is converting. Taxi's been doing it for years.
ANOTHER GREAT INFORMATIVE VIDEO JEFF!!! On so real shit Jeff Iâm about to blow the doors wide open on this âcommercial auto insuranceâ bologna. I spoke with Uber a few weeks ago and they said that the local govt. is responsible for commercial insurance in regards to how much to charge the passenger. I know, you know and the 300 know thatâs BOLOGNA. Give me a week and Iâll have a new presentation with a grip of screenshots. WE THE 300, and WE AINT FALLING FOR THE OKEY-DOKE đĄđ€ŹđĄđđ”đ°
We know they are running an insurance racket. Even the government knows, as they are investors in the racket. We will expose this shit like FTX and Sam Bankman-Fried. So much collusion and corruption going on, as the numbers don't make sense.
Lyft blocked me from scheduled trips. Because I called him out on social media for it. I showed a screenshot of them, only giving ten percent to the driver. It shows zero scheduled rides every time I check
Oh yeah, these apps getting caught up because they using drivers as cash cows, laughing all the way to the bank while we out here tearing cars up. Employees and staff getting spiffs on who can rip the most money off from drivers, so the moment we call them out, they mad and blocking us from access to the apps. 2024 about to be the year EVERYBODY find out what's really real on these apps. Katt Williams warned em all and said this is the year of exposing fakes and liars. These apps thought they were exempt from it. We told em to be straight up and do legit business with us, but this is what it's come to.
Great video Jeff. You ever do a video of Uber stealing tips when passengers send them a week or two after the ride? I do not think it shows in the current week.
We used to do those videos showing tips popping up outta nowhere, but you gotta audit it against your wallet to make sure they're putting it in there. They'll put it on a screen, but you need to make sure it's in your wallet.
Crazy shit, brotha. Killing our economy with bullshit tech, ripping people off. Fees on top of fees!!! They banking on us like slaves giving free labor out here.
@@MicDropBBQ and thats the reason we convert these trips man thats crazy thats like working for them for free and their not paying for gas maintenance cleaning for our cars these apps are criminals
@marvinchico1983 they ain't paying us for shit as we go deeper into poverty. These videos gotta make it to the attorney generals out there for each state.
Im having a hard time converting business people because their company is paying it...this people are paying 87 dollars for a 23 mile ride I only got 40 lyft is scamming hard
That's why we use SQUARE. When they get business reimbursements or credit cards, Square will issue them a receipt. I've got about 5 Square clients with one being weekly on a consistent basis. They need the receipt for reimbursement. That's how you handle that.
Greedy. Uber started out saving riders money. But as more and more drivers sign up, supply of drivers is becoming excessive. That is what gives these app companies the audacity to keep screwing drivers.
They have become corrupt with money and power. Seeing accounts going thru the roof with billions, they think the money will never stop. They got too big, and now cash rides are cutting them down to size in certain markets. They'll always make money, but the more we drive for THEM, the more they are looking at getting rid of drivers with Waymo and other driverless tech. They dont want human drivers, so I dont see why drivers are promoting them and constantly saying how amazing these apps are. These apps are wrong for setting people up like this, milking our economies.
I got a notification today stating that I am now driving in "standard mode" Which stated that most of my rides will be off trip radar from now on because I am below 25% AR. This is on Uber
Yup. They are cherry-picking DRIVERS now! That's all it is. When they know someone tips well, that rider will be paired with a pigeon driver. They want the tip to be on the app so they can shave some of it or keep all of it. They know a low AR driver is gonna convert it or ask for the tip off the app.
@@MicDropBBQ I emailed you screenshots in correct order incase you or other drivers never seen that message before. Then after I hit send it showed it all out of order. So my bad if it came through messed up.
So I delivered $280 worth of food the other day (2 picks ups, 2 drop offs) I got $30.50 for it including a $24.95 tip from 1 customer so $3 per stop, I called & complained even asked to speak to a supervisor who used to throw you some extra money when you complained but I havenât delivered in 6 months so Iâm guessing thatâs stopped along with all the other cost cutting measures
How in the HELL doe they justify $3 per stop!?!??! They stole some money from you. Had to. Even a customer would go, "...damn...that's cheap. Just spent over $150 on an order, and paying the guy $3 if we dont tip him???? Then the 2nd customer did the same? Odds of that....to the point where you're living on tips, even on high orders like that. Had you not gotten a tip, you'd have $6. I think that's a lie and the apps are keeping some of your money. Those were at least $15 orders by themselves, and then add the $25 in tips on top of that.
And that's why they're in court all the time. Attorneys know what's going on. These companies are doing all they can to keep connections with the Justice Dept so they're not investigated. They're paying a lot of people off to do what they do, as it's clear as to what's going on.
Good video Jeff I have been aggressively rolling up on folks needing rides from bar to bar or home or whatever and theyâre not even being that skeptical anymore theyâre hip to it âŠ. Fuck these apps⊠also I hand out business cards both physical and virtual business cards âŠitâs already working after less than two months of converting
Yup. Folks used to be like, "...I don't know...let's just leave it on the app." And now, they're like, "...you got more than 1 card? I have a friend that needs one too!" LOL! If you don't speak up, you're missing the opportunity on some good money. These apps aint paying shit.
I got so tired of picking up people at Amazon, having to drive over 15 minutes sometimes, on a highway under construction, and then only getting $8-10 for ride, on upfront pricing, but they wouldn't give me wait time because I could not drive to the pin and arrive, because the pin was located in an area my car could not go into... like the middle of the building!! They did this for surge, too. The surge would be showing out on the tarmac but vehicle can't go out on tarmac plus no planes were coming in to that airport at that time. But I drove as close as I could to see what was going on and I see this Asian dude standing at the fenceline on some kind of laptop. I felt like he was monitoring the drivers driving to that surge that could not be reached to pick up on the app. Ghost riders on the tarmac? đ§
@@MicDropBBQThat's what I was thinking. It was creepy... like I was in a video game and he just brought me to the stage like he recovered a reward or something. I quit going to surge areas from then on. I'd just go the opposite way and work NORMAL.
@@MicDropBBQđđđđđ Pigeon Patrol. đ€Ł I wonder what kind of Patrol the FTC and SEC will be on when they see that Lyft is now holding drivers hostage, away from the rider's request, and auctioning the closest driver for the highest price. What market area did that example come from? Alaska? This video better get put in a safe place. I still can't get my mouth off the floor. There's Mic Drop and then there's Jaw Drop on the floor after watching what we all just did. I hope who ever sent that to you prints lots of copies out and saves them for Exhibits! Lyft is going to have a lot of explaining to do! I don't think they can get out of this one. Shit rolls up hill this time, and fast, because their's probably organizations putting together draft Amicus Briefs right now in preparation for the SCOTUS battle. Hope they know what Grayball is! Or are they all still using flip phones? đ€Ł
The craziest thing is so many companies do the same thing as far as covering cost using ride share as transportation. Limiting any conversions. Honestly I truly want to see the state of rideshare in the next 3 years.
These apps will be either too expensive to operate, or they wont exist. I don't see these apps making it thru settlements and government interventions.
On a side note when the ride volume is down during the summer. I noticed Uber & Lift start cutting the portion that drivers earn even more than they already take since they are losing revenue during lean months of Summer.
Yup. Every year, my bank account drops in the summer each month after bills. Means I'm not making as much. But I also do more mods in the summer because I drive less in the heat. With private rides being more alive for me, I wonder how my summer is gonna end. I'm doing pretty well compared to last year, even tho my app use is down.
They all know the employees are about to be scaled back at the corporation. They can't function unless they steal fares and tips. That's how you know this is a criminal business. If they can't operate with a standard of practice that's legal (and doesn't keep them in court all the time) and isn't immoral (gouging with fees/fares and stealing tips), that's like you know it's racketeering. It's an illegal set of processes they have to use to stay afloat, as their next step will to be get rid of all American staff and keep their workers in India growing. That's why they don't care about stealing; most aren't even living/working on our soil to care.
You mentioned something important. Taxes were really weird this year. What they reported and what we got was way off. We just filed what appeared to be legal. Still waiting on that return btw.
Yeah, any return with Uber or Lyft needs to be used as part of a lawsuit showing how they are dodging taxes by saying WE earned the money, yet they don't allow us to have a say in the money. We earn it. They take it away. That's their system.
Please note, many clients in Los Angeles are aware that Uber and Lyft charging more to them ,and paying the driver less. Unfortunately they want to insist on using the apps , because they have the convenience of pushing a button. The button is overriding good or common sense.
Two words: CALI FORNIA. đ€Łđ đđ That's literally the issue with some states. They don't use common sense to help each other in a bad economy already. Could be so much more lucrative have a private driver to cut costs and to help the economy at the same time. Wild they don't even consider why Cali is in the hole it's in.
If you have a flexdrive vehicle it is even worser and to take it even further you cant money unless you work 12 hours, just figured it out. Airport trip payed 62.37 they gave me 18.42 for 15 miles its no way you can manageđź
Sickening they just offered me a 91 mile trip for $67 where you would land on the coast near Bolinas Marin county Highway one or guess what you need 200 miles worth of gas for that peanuts once again
Wow. Trips like that, the riders are paying $220. We get rides to Tucson for $69 and the riders tells us they pay $220. I'm waiting on another one to hit my phone. A driver at QT told me he did one for $220, and someone at the drop off asked him if he could bring them back to Phoenix. He made another $150 on the way back! Dude got LUCKY!! Uber was only paying $69 for it! He was an African immigrant who has been in America for over 30yrs. He and his wife live in Phx now. I talked about him on a livestream where he bought a Range Rover for $500 and fixed the transmission himself. Now his wife drives it! LOL! Played him! LOL Took this man's Range from him, but he's got a nice SUV now. Find a long ride and CONVERT. You may get lucky and convert one back. It happened to him, so I'm hoping it happens to me!
Yup. They set the algo's to generate profits for the business, that's about it. It's all running on margin calculations, not on anything that pays the drivers well. They set it to hold the driver at x-amount of dollars. Anything over there is profits for the app.
A notice to ALL RIDERS: START TIPPING YOUR DRIVERS OR WE START LEAVING YOU STRANDED. WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH. SHUTTING OFF THE APP AT CERTAIN TIMES IN CERTAIN AREAS WILL SEND A CLEAR MESSAGE.
I don't know if you understand the channel this is, but this is what we say over here: 1) Riders don't have to tip you unless they want to, and 2) The apps are charging so much that the riders can't afford to tip anymore. I said that in my LAST two videos back, I think. You have to come watch the content to realize what room you just walked into. We don't "force tip" around here, just because we want more money out of the transaction. If you want more money, CONVERT THE RIDE. That's the kinda channel this is. We don't harp on riders because they are not in control of the tips, as they tips are usually stolen when they DO pay - so you think they didn't give you one. We all use CASHAPP and VENMO QR CODES in our cars, and that's how riders tip if they want to. So, shutting off your app is just money out of your pocket. A driver like me will ride up to that SAME area you dont wanna work in because somebody didn't give you $5, and I'll make $40 cash rides on an offer than was $22 on the app. That's the kinda channel this is. WE ABOUT THAT MONEY, not about the scraps.
Oh, when I saw the email, I had to go over it a few times before I believed it. I looked at the times, the area map and all. I wanted to think it was a spoof or a joke, but the shit was real. I couldn't believe it. $105 and the pay is $17. NUTS!
I think that u are onto something with this and if thereâs one thing I know, ppl that are billionaires donât play with their money. How youâll know if this money laundering thing is true, is they will try getting u off of CZcams. If that happens, u know for sure they are doing this smh. Stay strong brother and keep shedding light on this
Oh, we know that my channel won't last long. They're already on my case, but I'm shedding light on new channels in each of my videos to make sure these channels get plugged (even indirectly) and we can move the conversation over there, hopefully.
The whole system is on the verge of collapse. Banking, housing, currency, credit, jobs, EVERYTHING. The CONSUMER economy is collapsing because 75% of the population is BROKE. They are doing this to expedite the collapse. All by design, donât doubt it for a minute. This fall is going to be a disaster. Things are about to get biblical. âyou will own nothing and be happyâ
People can't pay increased RENT in 2024 plus these fees for getting across town using these apps. They gotta use private drivers if they wanna retain some of their money.
I walk into the hotdog shop đ and not one âđ» driver knows how to speak English? But can deliver a pizza and a hot dog nonstop for less than .50 cent per mile
Plantation economics. In NYC drivers reported making 50% less due to being locked out. In New York State they made the minimum pay $27 for active hours but Uber doesnât show the destination and Lyft doesnât pay 70%.
The apps are systematically punishing NYC for that settlement they won. They are making the drivers pay for their own settlement, basically. Uber and Lyft aren't paying a dime of it. The drivers are being ripped off and basically getting their own money back.
See, that right there. We got a dangerous job dealing with ANYBODY and EVERYBODY in the public, trying to transport the good people out there. Yet, there are bad ones tucked in. These apps got staff safely sitting at home or in cubicles over-looking the city, eating doughnuts and having potlucks on OUR dime, but telling us we don't deserve the fares being paid. Cancel. Convert. Fck them employees. They stealing our tips anyways. Somebody get shot, they see it as just another driver they can't steal from...and they move on. Nobody goes to the driver's house or they dont hold an Uber moment-of-silence for fallen drivers. They dont give a shit.
That's what it is: 100% tax rate of services rendered, when SERVICES are not taxable, the last I checked for Arizona. These apps are getting around paying taxes by claiming we are a SERVICE - and they are TECH - so there's no tangible product being sold. Yet, if we put this same calculation on a tangible product (groceries), folks would be PISSED to find out they just paid DOUBLE for something that had a price tag of $20.
Crazy. This is why we get pissed off and just park the cars. We KNOW we getting played if we dont convert the ride to Cashapp or Venmo. We already know it. I did a ride for $43, only to learn the rider paid $86. I would've did it for like $60 and called it good!! But I let the apps play me, man. We gotta do better out in these streets. We gotta fight the right way.
These companies don't like transparency all while fleecing the riders and stiffing the drivers. How can they charge someone $100 a ride like that? That rider ain't gonna tip and more likely think the driver gets all that money, when its all BS. That ride would be a good convert for a cash ride. I would charge the rider $25-30 for that.
@@MicDropBBQAnd more than likely , the people who write the code will blame it on a "glitch," and since A.I. can't be controlled due to a "glitch," Pinky will always get the same response when he asks Brain... "What are we going to do today, Brain?" Brain: "Take over the world." đđșđžđđ
Here in Boston area I've never seen fares so low . I'm working longer and longer to make $300, and that's with serious "Cherry Picking", I'm really struggling to justify working Uber anymore. It takes me 8 to 12 hours to make what I used to make in 4 to 5 .....maybe!
Same here. That's why a lot of days go and I just advertise on Facebook and IG and do private rides and walkups. The apps aren't worth the effort, so if I'm gonna put some effort into ANYTHING, it'll be into my own business and getting clients that are willing to pay a fair price.
Whatâs crazy is, if they paid me $40 for that ride, I wouldnât care what they were charging. I will never take any ride to any Amazon location. The only external fee I will accept is the $5 airport fee. That is what it is. Itâs the 900-2000% markup on their insurance, thatâs the big lie. Here in AZ we know what insurance really costs because we pay it on HUM and itâs basically pennies.
Exactly. We know how much commercial insurance costs and these apps will be like, "...it's about $80/day for insurance if you're doing 15-20 rides. No. It probably costs $1.50/trip for real. We pay $1/day to be on the app - and if we do ALL private rides, that's all we pay for insurance for that day: $1. If we do app rides, we will pay $1.50-$2/ride for trips that are like 10-20 miles. Uber and Lyft charging $4-6 for the same trips in insurance. If it's surging, they're charging TWICE that amount for insurance.
Yeah, like I said land out on the beach ocean nighttime Highway one 91 miles basically in order to get back to your house youâre putting about 200 well 180 miles on your car so what am I gonna make $15? Not happening can you imagine how much money they told that customer that trip would be a good $200-$250
On, you know they charged them AT LEAST $200! You ain't even gotta guess that part. They doing the Phoenix airport to Tucson rides like that. 109 miles...$220 charge to customer...driver getting $69. I used to decline em til I talked to the driver at QuikTrip. Now they wont send me one to my phone! LOL! They know I'm about to BANK! I'm gon switch cars to the BMW to save gas, then get $200...then try to get a ride back for $150-200. I'm willing to risk it once to see if it works.
Crazy, but so damn true! When I was a pigeon back in the day and I didnt cherry-pick as much, that's how it was for me. Uber and Lyft would send me pings the moment I turned my phone on, knowing I would take the popcorn!
what a rip-off not even a dollar a mile or more and they rob to the passenger and slavering the driver who provide car , fuel ,insurance , maintenance etc ...
Makes you realize who these corporate people truly are. Wolves chewing up our paychecks on both ends of the deal. They don't care if you starve or if your kids don't have lunch money. They taking your whole wallet if you let em!
@@MicDropBBQ indeed my friend ! I knew this for a long time when they starting with the upfront crap price ! I ask a few passenger how much money they paid for the ride ! my hate and anger was like an volcano ! from Hawaii ! they taking the whole pie any single ride ! but with still have many desperados brainless ,. this situation wouldn't happen if they stay with the old model pay by miles rate and minutes like the old days and not this BS rip-off
What kinda programs they got out there? Subsidized Uber and Lyft rides to the point where these apps are sucking up tax dollars and not putting nothing back into the community, I bet.
@@MicDropBBQ A lot of them CEO's serve big powers that the general public isnt aware of. People would be surprised if they really knew what black rock and vanguard is really about! Doordash has an article of how they lower base pay due to the higher the customers tips are. In the article it states that Doordash had lawsuits about wage theft! The article states it had to back pay ''the drivers'' and donate to a charity organization. I found the article really bizzare, for one Ive never heard of drivers getting back paid on wage theft and number 2 why on earth would a charity orgaization get involved for the wage theft of drivers and why would Doordash donate money to them? Think about it, it would explain big chunks of money missing from the organization so now comes the ''charity organization'' In other words now they'd have to investigate the ''charity organization'' LOL.....
The "charities" are usually run by the elites. That's why they call themselves philanthropists. This is all a shell of how to protect the income they receive in the tune of BILLIONS at a time. "...oh, put it in my charity...". Non-taxable.
It would have been good if he took the ride to see the breakdown. Now what if you stick around and only do Amazon rides. Now with the bs 70% you should be getting a nice adjustment.
For any Amazon ride, I would automatically convert on the spot. I'd be like, "...what did you pay, because I'm only getting x-amount out of this, and I know the apps upsell Amazon rides to you guys. I'll do it for what you paid." I paid $9....the company paid the other $95. "...then I'll do the ride for $9. Let's go." LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO! Fck Lyft!
They are using company accounts to đstop us from getting cash rides. Guest rides are all they are giving me in my area. Iâm focused on another thing. Fuck these raggedy ass apps. đđđđđ They are watching the channel on the slick. Because we never had these problems until now.
Something is up. I would cancel a guest ride and ask them the real deal. I wouldn't do the ride unless it was cash, but I would definitely have a conversation with the rider to ask what was told to them to start doing guest rides. We gotta talk on the battlefield to these people. We need intel.
Wridz shows the rider exactly what the driver gets paid. Uber and Lyft would NEVER do that since it would expose the unethical practices they engage in. If riders could see that they would actually complain to Uber and Lyft directly. I don't think they would stand for it.
@@MicDropBBQ The rider told me his company is paying for the ride. I got $13 and the company paid $27 dollars for the ride. I only did the ride to find out what was going on Jeff. Lately thatâs all they are giving me right now. So I donât drive right now.
Uber isn't much better. When they broadcast a trip to us (that's not a trip radar), we only see the total time from pickup to drop off. It isn't until we accept the trip that we see the time it'll take us from our current location to get to the pickup and Uber won't provide that transparency to inform us of that information. They could literally be asking us to drive into a bad or unsafe location and we won't know until after we decide to take the trip and if we decide to cancel for our own safety, Uber starts leaving threatening messages on your profile about canceling trips and violating Community Guidelines.
We got a community guideline called DONT STEAL OUR TIPS & FARES. Do you think they care? Nope. Therefore, I couldn't care less about their community guidelines.
I'm telling you!! Lyft and Uber are the SAME APPS. Why aren't other apps being throttled by the TLC in NYC? Why just Uber and Lyft? Aren't other apps doing the same business? Why did Uber put Lyft's name in the message to drivers if Uber and Lyft are not the same app?? Uber didn't put Wridz or any other app in their name...nope...just Lyft.
Ok im so sick of the bs crap offers and deception Im feeling the need to expose this sht, what software do you edit with for youtube? I think its time I join in
I use Kinemaster. That's why I left the logo at the top corner of my videos, so people can see what apps I use. I paid for the app - then they took away the watermark!!! So I canceled it because support said when I pay, the watermark is removed. I told them we need the option to leave the watermark so people who wanna do editing can see what we're using. I love going to channels and looking in the descriptions to see what software they use...what cameras they use...all of that. Even the Lead Attorney shows all of that on his descriptions, as he was one of the FIRST channels I saw do it a long time ago. I was like, "...dude is too cool for that!" That's how you help people out. You let them know what you're using, and they just might have a few bucks in their pocket to get a new camera. I been looking at getting a new camera, and the Lead Attorney uses one that's just under $800...not bad for professional grade equipment that will get you a return on your investment.
@@jamesreese8196 Accent. Cancel. Convert. You accept to DO the ride, but you're just not doing it for low pay. When customer service told me a LONG time ago that I was accepting offers with no intention of doing the ride, I wrote them back: "...if I accepted the offer without the intention of doing the ride, and you're saying that I actually did the ride, are you listening to yourself right now?" They haven't message me about shit since then. I accept offers with ALL intentions on doing the ride, so they need to find another reason to come at me. I do the ride for a fair market rate for an independent contractor, not a FIXED RATE of someone racketeering in the industry.
@@MicDropBBQ omg Jeff they only charged the guy 8 bucks for the ride and the other was a woman who growled at me for saying good morning and refused to answer when I asked if she was all set when I started the trip! I need a normal customer to convert lol
7:06 the rider says "i thought i was paying you" so much of the time đ it's insane how much they trust the app. "You get 100% of the tip is what i read in an add" đ€Ł the fuck is wrong with these people?! "i hate corporations" then they turn around and trust a corporation
They give you 100% of the tip in the form of YOUR NEXT RIDE! hahahaha! If you get a $15 tip, they're gonna give you a $15 ride next. You got the tip, but they didn't tell you HOW you got it!
â@@MicDropBBQyeah just like congratulations you got the surge! Now your ass is going 7 miles to pickup for a 1.5 mile trip and if you don't accept or cancel the ride you just lost the surge
A lot of drivers need to come off the platform thatâs where the leverage is. Because a lot of markets have high idle times. Most non veterans will take that 17.00 cause ppl tryna keep the lights on. Tbh. We canât blame the companies. Go private. Build with other drivers. Americans highway and rail system is so bad we can all eat. Lyft and Uber are great platforms but on 25 years they wonât be needed.
Exactly! Form local teams and we take care of the logistics in our markets. We get rid of the tech that's robbing our local and state economies, pulling all of the money OUT of our banks and INTO their banks...leaving us with nothing but DIAMOND STATUS on our phones. The hell that's gon do for anybody when we dont have revenue for infrastructure? Nothing. Folks need to start doing more private and less corporate/tech.
@@MicDropBBQ would you be open to creating a course for a step by step to opening a service In individual markets. I personally live in the best market in the country but I know folks battle issues across the board
I wouldn't have the time to start a course. My playlists on my channel is the best I can do. Video edits and livestreams take up a lotta time, especially when I'm driving and doing mechanic work on my rigs. Hahaha! The channel essentially is the course, in real time.
Also It Appears to Mee & Many of My Experiences .... I think those call center agents even appears to Bee Overcharging Black Customers Higher Charges &/or Select Areas ...

New York Uber drivers did it to themselves. They're the ones that wanted to have a minimum wage. Would it be fair for Uber to be forced to allow every person in New York to be an Uber driver and every one of them be on at the exact same time? And everybody decides to work just whenever they want to work so at 2:00 p.m. on a Tuesday or Wednesday you have 5 million drivers when you obviously would not need that many. But Uber still has to pay a minimum rate. You can't say well Uber's a multi billion dollar company they should just take money from another market and give it to New York drivers. That's not fair for the rest of the drivers that should be earning more money also. Of course they're doing it to gas cars more than they are EV cars. Uber stated goal is all electric by 2030 or something like that. Further incentivize drivers to switch to EV by saying if you want to work we're only doing ev now. And they paid EV cars more anyways. Is there a problem with that? Of course not. Uber wants to do a business model where it's all electric despite how stupid that model is they should do things that encourage people to drive EVs.
Wait til my next video drops. It's about Duress and Undue Influence and how the apps are violating these TOS agreements. It's dropping around 1:30pm today. It's like 11:40am right now, so give it a bit. What you said about EVs is clearly a violation of laws if they are INFLUENCING people to choose electric by creating situations of duress for drivers with gas vehicles.
Well, technically we're not hired. We're active on the apps, but we don't really work everyday. Drivers like me have Uber, but don't use it that much. Active hours is for pigeons that stay driving for 75hrs our of 84hrs online. That's crazy. If people didnt take TRASH and used their active hours to make more profits, the apps wouldn't be so eager to keep these pigeons online and the apps would pay higher by dropping trash rides. Yet, we have too many pigeons being active. We still drive, but we drive offline and with private clients that pay. People are paying well, but the apps are paying drivers TRASH. And the rides are more expensive, but the paysouts are worse and worse.
See Jeff this is where you got it right! They donât think we talk to each other. Well, weâve got the Internet combining with human nature. Ever start a rumored to see how fastit will travel⊠Welcome to the Internet.đđ
Yup! We will get the truth out there, so I had to be a channel NO AFRAID of the truth. So many dodge it and call it "drama", but when you got two apps CHEATING people out of a living, THAT is worth speaking about. I'm not sure many channels are on the same level as drivers. Some have gotten too big to where they think they're also a corporation and can't tell the truth about what's going on. That's just me keeping it real.
I pay for my own commercial car insurance thru progressive. They need to require the drivers to have commercial insurance because I donât wanna pay them for car insurance when I have it already. It isnât that much money when you buy it yourself.
Right now, app drivers are getting double-billed for commercial insurance. Paying for their own PLUS paying Uber/Lyft for the SAME COVERAGE. It's like buying two bottles of water, but drinking one while pouring the one on the ground because you have too much water. LOL! Why buy two??? "...well, because they won't let me just buy one. I only want one, but the force me to do it this way."
@@MicDropBBQ I been in 2 accidents doing Uber, neither was my fault. But I was afraid to use their insurance bcuz I had a feeling I would be penalized if I used theirs. Fortunately, I got paid thru the other peoples insurance since it was their fault.
That's how accidents work. If it's the other person's fault, your insurance can cut you a check and then go after the other driver's insurance thru subrogation. They can even get you deductible back. That's why I'm never worried about wrecking. I don't wreck. Other people out there are the ones that NEED insurance, especially because they're distracted driving, trying to chase every ride out here. These pigeons smashing cars and then worried about drivers like ME who don't wreck. 35yrs driving, and they looking at me like, "...you're gonna total your car." Have I done that in 35yrs? You think I'm getting WORSE as a driver, or better and more experienced? LOL! These folks are nuts...backwards thinking.
Watching your videos is making me sick to the stomachâŠnow Iâm sat there watching these trips come in and have no interest in accepting anything smh.
That's why my AR on Lyft is probably around 9% and on Uber, I'm around 19%. Most trips aren't worth taking unless you plan on converting them. These apps are not paying drivers ON PURPOSE, just to make sure they can continue to run financial schemes on communities out there.
Oh shit!!! @antoniohalfamazing I'm on the SHORT BUS today! LOL! I just got what you meant hahahaha! Formerly Known As!!! Daaaaaaamn! I'm slow! Now I'm laughing harder at your comment! That shit was good! Hey, you QUICK!
I don't want the truck on Uber. The BMW is still on, and that points me in the right direction of events and surge. I turn Uber on and go thru the Opportunities tab. Once I see where things are, I drive the truck there and do cash rides. LOL! Uber serves a purpose as a LEAD GENERATOR, which is all it is. Generates leads for clients/rides in the regions I wanna work. They are NOT transportation. We are. We go get it!
There was promotion from uber if complete 10 rides by 11 pm they will give me 50$ bonus . So by 10.55 I completed 9 rides just needed 1 more to get 50$ exactly 10.57 pm I got 1 more request I was so happy to complete 10 rides but 11.01 pm it got canceled I was so mad and 11.02 I got the same request from the person that just canceled 1 min ago đą when I picked him up he very cool person and he said he never canceled đź. I was shocked. And I never got the promotion I called uber several times but talking to them is like talking to brick wall
@BOSS.Destroyer Wow! That's even more proof of the games. They used to do us like that with quests back in the day!! They would string us along and on the last one, rider would cancel as you drove towards them. Then a request would pop up and be considered AFTER the time period was up!! I wouldn't get the same rider, but you did. Glad he told you he didn't cancel because I always knew something was shady. It would always be on the 2nd level of my Uber quest. I stopped chasing em, and now we just convert rides. I get my money upfront.
Is it insane that you expose how corrupt these platforms are, squeezing riders to the MAX, and then to fix the corruption, some Drivers actually look to their riders who are ALREADY getting COOKED to further tip?! They get outraged at the crooked system and they take it out on their riders! Insane!
VERY INSANE
Thank you Leeeeeeeeeead Attorney! I'm always checking you out brotha. But yes, definitely a lot of antitrust and corruption going on, but you know Tony West is running legal at Uber...and that's Kamala's brother in law. Uber knew what they were doing when they hired him on from the Justice Dept.
And you're right; we can't expect riders to TIP after they already paid too much! They're killing our local economies and we can't keep any money in our communities like they did on Black Wall Street, where the dollar circulated the community for up to 21 days. Now, the dollar is gone from our communities within 24hrs because of corporations that use TECH to rip us off!
Appreciate you stopping by, brotha. Glad to know you even watch. I'm always on your lives cracking up! LOL!
@TheLeadAttorney
Very true. Although Some of us refuse to be, ahem, pigeonholed.
@@timetowakeup6302 Definitely not looking like some pigeon-picking-popcorn drivers out here! LOL! They more crap they send us, the more riders we tell the truth to and convert them to private rides. We can help our economy, but riders gotta be willing to say OK and cancel that ride for a better deal for everybody involved.
@@MicDropBBQ I pay $150 for Uber Black XLs to go 16 miles (25 min) to the airport in Atlanta. I would LOVE for drivers to convert me lol! Iâve only had one guy try by giving me his business card, but Iâve never had any driver propose your offer. Honestly, the initiative should be on you drivers to make the offer because (1) we donât know how much you get out of the $150, but we think it must be a lot if you continue to take riders, and (2) we are just trying to get to the airport fast, and if you get offended by the offer bc you're a company man and cancel the trip, then we could be late to the airport, which is the LAST thing we want as riders. But I would LOVE to give a driver $110 cash for 16 miles instead of $150 plus tip! Uber is absolutely cooking us riders lol.
This is why riders are not tipping much these days. They are already paying to much.
Lately, down here in the Rio Grande Valley (TX) I've been noticing that Lyft is charging the riders the same amount they were charging around this same time last year BUT us drivers are getting less than half of what the riders are paying. For lift, I've been cherrypicking the rides that I accept because if Lyft isn't willing to pay me for all the wear and tear I'm putting on my car, I'm like "F the passenger! They can beat feet!". It's already bad enough Lyft won't give us a FIFO queue at the busiest airport of the three in the area and they rarely give bonuses at said airport. As a result, my acceptance rate has fallen to 4% because in our area, the most lucrative paying rides come from the airport but without an airport queue, we get flooded with trip requests asking us to drive 10-12 miles away to pick up a passenger and drop them off 2 miles from the pickup. To Hell with that!
That's CRAZY!!!!!!! Billionaires sharing profits, meanwhile drivers getting screwed.
Maaaaaan, I don't feel bad AT ALL for saving riders from this shit!!! I'm so glad I keep riders from being gouged like this!
Yeah this wealth hoarding by rich sociopaths is really getting under my skin. I am also sick of socio-economic lane enforcers like the ones you find in TexASS!
They bring in the lowest-paid people on Earth from other countries while taxing Americans with prices like this. THAT creates the wealth gap. Many American's can't function on INCREASED rents and interest rates in 2024, but having 1990 salaries. We gotta battle back. Enough is enough.
@@BroadwayLTDProductions I'll stay j my lane as long as it's not a safety hazard. When the right lane is loaded with potholes that makes it impossible to dodge one after another, I'd rather explain the potholes (as if they don't already know) rather than get pulled over for driving erratically trying to avoid a blowout from the potholes. Uber Etal should be getting bills from all the states' legislators to start contributing back to the infrastructure and roads of all the states they have been permitted to operate in.
Its happened a few times before in the past, its how the I.C.C. trys to bankrupt americans out of there homes to make major profits. But time they are running out for time, they are ripping us off!

Appreciate that, Chaz. Real talk, brotha. I do my best, as I'm passionate about truly helping the people around me. Always been that way, as some folks are designed to always hold themselves above the crowd. I stay in the crowd...in the trenches, trading ideas and solutions back and forth til we figure out what's going on, and how to get out of the hole. Even when I was corporate, I just didn't fit in with the greed and the sneakiness of the shit always going on. It was all for money and power, and I would be thinking, "...we got workers here trying to buy cars and townhouses and put kids thru school, so we got the money. Why they lying? Just to get more money for themselves as executive bonuses?" The shit was pure greed, man.
Accounting - to me - was about truth and for accounting for that truth. I couldn't keep doing accounting around people who didn't like the truth. The numbers don't lie, so if they wanted someone to make the numbers lie, I wasn't the guy for the job.
"i looked on the app, it said the rider paid $30, but the rider said he paid over $40"
lyft & uber hide the REAL total paid, they dont show the driver's app all the "express fees" or "prime time / surge pricing" or "ev" or "green ride" or any other upcharge they force the rider to pay.
they do this to further hide how badly they're screwing drivers so you cant tell how far from "70% of the fare" you're NOT even getting.
đŻ đŻ đŻ đŻ
I got asked today if I think HUM is going to compete with Uber & Lyft? I said yes because people are tired of their ever changing fees that aren't transparent how they come up with those fees
Drivers are tired of using apps that take 50-70% of the fare.

Bingo!! Billionaires helping billionaires avert taxes.
@@MicDropBBQFmr LLC
Closing drivers out of the app because you don't want to pay them... At that point the apps should just clarify to the drivers, your services are no longer needed we're going to be letting 20% of our IC's go so we're not overly saturated and can pay the drivers what the law is making us.
But instead, they're letting the drivers make a little money for the hour, and then shutting them down until the times up, and then letting them back on later once that time period is up so they don't make too much money.
These apps are definitely clamping down and showing how low they are willing to go.
SAVING WHILE YOU WAIT LONGER IS WILD THAT DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF USING THE APP WHICH IS (CONVENIENCE)
That part! Might as well call a private rider and give him some time to get to ya, for less!
Hereâs the cherry on top of them grossly underpaying us, I hardly ever see a tip on both Lyft & Uber. Somethingâs up!
I've done maybe 15 trips in the past week with them, and I've gotten tips on maybe FIVE. I laugh that shit off now because they're ripping people off and I'd REALLY rather convert them to a private rider and get them off that corporate plantation anyways. I used to complain about not getting tips, but now I just convert like 3 rides/day and that's my tip. LOL! I get like $100 on 3 rides instead of getting $38 on 3 rides on Lyft.
Maybe we need to go back to Taxis. My dad used to be a cab driver and make decent money back in the 90s and 2000s. He only had to pay like $100 a week to the company and he kept the rest. He had his own car. If he got a cab from the company then it was like $150 a week that he paid the company. We need a taxi app like that.
With the way the market is going, paying $100 is a deal. If you make $200/day on Uber - and Uber is taking half - then you really made $400/day. Them taking $200 every day for a week is $1,400/week just to drive on the Uber app. Now $100/week don't look too bad.
Taxis in my city NE corridor do the same thing we do. They converting. They tell pax let's do cash only keep meter off.
I get pax complaining all the time. Because the taxi guys don't have another option. No cash app Venmo or square credit card reader. Pax ain't walking around with cash coming from train station or airport.
Everyone is converting. Taxi's been doing it for years.
ANOTHER GREAT INFORMATIVE VIDEO JEFF!!! On so real shit Jeff Iâm about to blow the doors wide open on this âcommercial auto insuranceâ bologna. I spoke with Uber a few weeks ago and they said that the local govt. is responsible for commercial insurance in regards to how much to charge the passenger. I know, you know and the 300 know thatâs BOLOGNA. Give me a week and Iâll have a new presentation with a grip of screenshots. WE THE 300, and WE AINT FALLING FOR THE OKEY-DOKE đĄđ€ŹđĄđđ”đ°
We know they are running an insurance racket. Even the government knows, as they are investors in the racket. We will expose this shit like FTX and Sam Bankman-Fried. So much collusion and corruption going on, as the numbers don't make sense.
Lyft blocked me from scheduled trips. Because I called him out on social media for it. I showed a screenshot of them, only giving ten percent to the driver. It shows zero scheduled rides every time I check
Oh yeah, these apps getting caught up because they using drivers as cash cows, laughing all the way to the bank while we out here tearing cars up. Employees and staff getting spiffs on who can rip the most money off from drivers, so the moment we call them out, they mad and blocking us from access to the apps.
2024 about to be the year EVERYBODY find out what's really real on these apps. Katt Williams warned em all and said this is the year of exposing fakes and liars. These apps thought they were exempt from it. We told em to be straight up and do legit business with us, but this is what it's come to.
Great video Jeff.
You ever do a video of Uber stealing tips when passengers send them a week or two after the ride? I do not think it shows in the current week.
We used to do those videos showing tips popping up outta nowhere, but you gotta audit it against your wallet to make sure they're putting it in there. They'll put it on a screen, but you need to make sure it's in your wallet.

@marvinchico1983 they ain't paying us for shit as we go deeper into poverty. These videos gotta make it to the attorney generals out there for each state.
Im having a hard time converting business people because their company is paying it...this people are paying 87 dollars for a 23 mile ride I only got 40 lyft is scamming hard
That's why we use SQUARE. When they get business reimbursements or credit cards, Square will issue them a receipt. I've got about 5 Square clients with one being weekly on a consistent basis. They need the receipt for reimbursement. That's how you handle that.
Greedy.
Uber started out saving riders money. But as more and more drivers sign up, supply of drivers is becoming excessive. That is what gives these app companies the audacity to keep screwing drivers.
They have become corrupt with money and power. Seeing accounts going thru the roof with billions, they think the money will never stop. They got too big, and now cash rides are cutting them down to size in certain markets. They'll always make money, but the more we drive for THEM, the more they are looking at getting rid of drivers with Waymo and other driverless tech. They dont want human drivers, so I dont see why drivers are promoting them and constantly saying how amazing these apps are. These apps are wrong for setting people up like this, milking our economies.
I got a notification today stating that I am now driving in "standard mode" Which stated that most of my rides will be off trip radar from now on because I am below 25% AR. This is on Uber
Yup. They are cherry-picking DRIVERS now! That's all it is. When they know someone tips well, that rider will be paired with a pigeon driver. They want the tip to be on the app so they can shave some of it or keep all of it. They know a low AR driver is gonna convert it or ask for the tip off the app.
The same happened to me & a lotta other drivers too, in the Phoenix area. The qr code they have attached to it, takes you to a dead end.
@@MicDropBBQ I emailed you screenshots in correct order incase you or other drivers never seen that message before. Then after I hit send it showed it all out of order. So my bad if it came through messed up.
I'll take a look at it later on today. About to get some private rides out of the way for the morning!
ty for sharing
I saw a guy in vegas post some diff msg where he gets shut off, so much for independent contractors
They were turning his app off for no reason?? Just to keep him from driving?
@@MicDropBBQ my bad is was not a complete shut off but a partial thing, im emailing you a screenshot, ive never seen this crap before
So I delivered $280 worth of food the other day (2 picks ups, 2 drop offs) I got $30.50 for it including a $24.95 tip from 1 customer so $3 per stop, I called & complained even asked to speak to a supervisor who used to throw you some extra money when you complained but I havenât delivered in 6 months so Iâm guessing thatâs stopped along with all the other cost cutting measures
How in the HELL doe they justify $3 per stop!?!??! They stole some money from you. Had to. Even a customer would go, "...damn...that's cheap. Just spent over $150 on an order, and paying the guy $3 if we dont tip him????
Then the 2nd customer did the same? Odds of that....to the point where you're living on tips, even on high orders like that. Had you not gotten a tip, you'd have $6. I think that's a lie and the apps are keeping some of your money. Those were at least $15 orders by themselves, and then add the $25 in tips on top of that.
Racketeering and money laundering at its finestâŠ. Smh
And that's why they're in court all the time. Attorneys know what's going on. These companies are doing all they can to keep connections with the Justice Dept so they're not investigated. They're paying a lot of people off to do what they do, as it's clear as to what's going on.
Good video Jeff
I have been aggressively rolling up on folks needing rides from bar to bar or home or whatever and theyâre not even being that skeptical anymore theyâre hip to it âŠ. Fuck these apps⊠also I hand out business cards both physical and virtual business cards âŠitâs already working after less than two months of converting
Yup. Folks used to be like, "...I don't know...let's just leave it on the app." And now, they're like, "...you got more than 1 card? I have a friend that needs one too!" LOL! If you don't speak up, you're missing the opportunity on some good money. These apps aint paying shit.
I think all drivers should read IRS Publication 530. It can be overwhelming to read, but try to understand it.
I got so tired of picking up people at Amazon, having to drive over 15 minutes sometimes, on a highway under construction, and then only getting $8-10 for ride, on upfront pricing, but they wouldn't give me wait time because I could not drive to the pin and arrive, because the pin was located in an area my car could not go into... like the middle of the building!!
They did this for surge, too. The surge would be showing out on the tarmac but vehicle can't go out on tarmac plus no planes were coming in to that airport at that time. But I drove as close as I could to see what was going on and I see this Asian dude standing at the fenceline on some kind of laptop. I felt like he was monitoring the drivers driving to that surge that could not be reached to pick up on the app. Ghost riders on the tarmac? đ§
He was monitoring pigeons. Hahaha! Pigeon patrol!!! đźââïž đŠ
@@MicDropBBQThat's what I was thinking. It was creepy... like I was in a video game and he just brought me to the stage like he recovered a reward or something. I quit going to surge areas from then on. I'd just go the opposite way and work NORMAL.
@@MicDropBBQđđđđđ Pigeon Patrol. đ€Ł
I wonder what kind of Patrol the FTC and SEC will be on when they see that Lyft is now holding drivers hostage, away from the rider's request, and auctioning the closest driver for the highest price. What market area did that example come from? Alaska?
This video better get put in a safe place. I still can't get my mouth off the floor. There's Mic Drop and then there's Jaw Drop on the floor after watching what we all just did. I hope who ever sent that to you prints lots of copies out and saves them for Exhibits! Lyft is going to have a lot of explaining to do! I don't think they can get out of this one. Shit rolls up hill this time, and fast, because their's probably organizations putting together draft Amicus Briefs right now in preparation for the SCOTUS battle. Hope they know what Grayball is! Or are they all still using flip phones? đ€Ł
The craziest thing is so many companies do the same thing as far as covering cost using ride share as transportation. Limiting any conversions. Honestly I truly want to see the state of rideshare in the next 3 years.
These apps will be either too expensive to operate, or they wont exist. I don't see these apps making it thru settlements and government interventions.
On a side note when the ride volume is down during the summer. I noticed Uber & Lift start cutting the portion that drivers earn even more than they already take since they are losing revenue during lean months of Summer.
Yup. Every year, my bank account drops in the summer each month after bills. Means I'm not making as much. But I also do more mods in the summer because I drive less in the heat. With private rides being more alive for me, I wonder how my summer is gonna end. I'm doing pretty well compared to last year, even tho my app use is down.
Tip shaving is a big problem with Uber
They all know the employees are about to be scaled back at the corporation. They can't function unless they steal fares and tips. That's how you know this is a criminal business. If they can't operate with a standard of practice that's legal (and doesn't keep them in court all the time) and isn't immoral (gouging with fees/fares and stealing tips), that's like you know it's racketeering. It's an illegal set of processes they have to use to stay afloat, as their next step will to be get rid of all American staff and keep their workers in India growing. That's why they don't care about stealing; most aren't even living/working on our soil to care.
You mentioned something important. Taxes were really weird this year. What they reported and what we got was way off. We just filed what appeared to be legal. Still waiting on that return btw.
Yeah, any return with Uber or Lyft needs to be used as part of a lawsuit showing how they are dodging taxes by saying WE earned the money, yet they don't allow us to have a say in the money. We earn it. They take it away. That's their system.
Please note, many clients in Los Angeles are aware that Uber and Lyft charging more to them ,and paying the driver less. Unfortunately they want to insist on using the apps , because they have the convenience of pushing a button. The button is overriding good or common sense.
Two words: CALI FORNIA. đ€Łđ đđ That's literally the issue with some states. They don't use common sense to help each other in a bad economy already. Could be so much more lucrative have a private driver to cut costs and to help the economy at the same time. Wild they don't even consider why Cali is in the hole it's in.
I don't understand why the government refuses to regulate the gig apps .
Two words: Tony. West.
If you have a flexdrive vehicle it is even worser and to take it even further you cant money unless you work 12 hours, just figured it out. Airport trip payed 62.37 they gave me 18.42 for 15 miles its no way you can manageđź
I'd be livid. We can't make what we deserve until we out here talking directly to the riders.
This is great news for Uber investors, but this is horrible news for Uber drivers đą
Sickening they just offered me a 91 mile trip for $67 where you would land on the coast near Bolinas Marin county Highway one or guess what you need 200 miles worth of gas for that peanuts once again
Wow. Trips like that, the riders are paying $220. We get rides to Tucson for $69 and the riders tells us they pay $220. I'm waiting on another one to hit my phone. A driver at QT told me he did one for $220, and someone at the drop off asked him if he could bring them back to Phoenix. He made another $150 on the way back! Dude got LUCKY!! Uber was only paying $69 for it!
He was an African immigrant who has been in America for over 30yrs. He and his wife live in Phx now. I talked about him on a livestream where he bought a Range Rover for $500 and fixed the transmission himself. Now his wife drives it! LOL! Played him! LOL Took this man's Range from him, but he's got a nice SUV now.
Find a long ride and CONVERT. You may get lucky and convert one back. It happened to him, so I'm hoping it happens to me!

Shows how bad computers running everything can be
Yup. They set the algo's to generate profits for the business, that's about it. It's all running on margin calculations, not on anything that pays the drivers well. They set it to hold the driver at x-amount of dollars. Anything over there is profits for the app.
@@MicDropBBQ almost 10 years doing this and it's the worst yet
A notice to ALL RIDERS:
START TIPPING YOUR DRIVERS OR WE START LEAVING YOU STRANDED.
WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH. SHUTTING OFF THE APP AT CERTAIN TIMES IN CERTAIN AREAS WILL SEND A CLEAR MESSAGE.
I don't know if you understand the channel this is, but this is what we say over here: 1) Riders don't have to tip you unless they want to, and 2) The apps are charging so much that the riders can't afford to tip anymore. I said that in my LAST two videos back, I think. You have to come watch the content to realize what room you just walked into. We don't "force tip" around here, just because we want more money out of the transaction.
If you want more money, CONVERT THE RIDE. That's the kinda channel this is. We don't harp on riders because they are not in control of the tips, as they tips are usually stolen when they DO pay - so you think they didn't give you one. We all use CASHAPP and VENMO QR CODES in our cars, and that's how riders tip if they want to.
So, shutting off your app is just money out of your pocket. A driver like me will ride up to that SAME area you dont wanna work in because somebody didn't give you $5, and I'll make $40 cash rides on an offer than was $22 on the app. That's the kinda channel this is. WE ABOUT THAT MONEY, not about the scraps.
I actually just screamed đ€ŠđŒââïž
Oh, when I saw the email, I had to go over it a few times before I believed it. I looked at the times, the area map and all. I wanted to think it was a spoof or a joke, but the shit was real. I couldn't believe it. $105 and the pay is $17. NUTS!
well give you 70% after we charge 60% in fees
Iâm surprised you arenât live for this advantage foolishness we started seeing today. Itâs crazy
I would be live, but I'm cooking and doing a little cleaning right now. LOL! But I got the laptop in the kitchen with me!

They avoid paying taxes by reporting THEIR "expenses" as driver earnings, or am I wrong?
Basically what they say. Claiming they don't have revenue, but have a lot of expenses.
Both Uber and Lyft are squeezing all the juice out of a lemon that no longer has any, these companies are out of their mind
The whole system is on the verge of collapse. Banking, housing, currency, credit, jobs, EVERYTHING. The CONSUMER economy is collapsing because 75% of the population is BROKE. They are doing this to expedite the collapse. All by design, donât doubt it for a minute. This fall is going to be a disaster. Things are about to get biblical.
âyou will own nothing and be happyâ
People can't pay increased RENT in 2024 plus these fees for getting across town using these apps. They gotta use private drivers if they wanna retain some of their money.

I walk into the hotdog shop đ and not one âđ» driver knows how to speak English? But can deliver a pizza and a hot dog nonstop for less than .50 cent per mile
Plantation economics. In NYC drivers reported making 50% less due to being locked out. In New York State they made the minimum pay $27 for active hours but Uber doesnât show the destination and Lyft doesnât pay 70%.
The apps are systematically punishing NYC for that settlement they won. They are making the drivers pay for their own settlement, basically. Uber and Lyft aren't paying a dime of it. The drivers are being ripped off and basically getting their own money back.
@@MicDropBBQ exactly. A driver got shot in the head in Brooklyn NYC last week and died in the hospital but the apps did nothing.
See, that right there. We got a dangerous job dealing with ANYBODY and EVERYBODY in the public, trying to transport the good people out there. Yet, there are bad ones tucked in. These apps got staff safely sitting at home or in cubicles over-looking the city, eating doughnuts and having potlucks on OUR dime, but telling us we don't deserve the fares being paid.
Cancel. Convert. Fck them employees. They stealing our tips anyways. Somebody get shot, they see it as just another driver they can't steal from...and they move on.
Nobody goes to the driver's house or they dont hold an Uber moment-of-silence for fallen drivers. They dont give a shit.
Love the grocery example
That's what it is: 100% tax rate of services rendered, when SERVICES are not taxable, the last I checked for Arizona. These apps are getting around paying taxes by claiming we are a SERVICE - and they are TECH - so there's no tangible product being sold. Yet, if we put this same calculation on a tangible product (groceries), folks would be PISSED to find out they just paid DOUBLE for something that had a price tag of $20.
I got Lyft pax who pays 39 the apps shows 28 and I got paid only 11 bucks
Crazy. This is why we get pissed off and just park the cars. We KNOW we getting played if we dont convert the ride to Cashapp or Venmo. We already know it. I did a ride for $43, only to learn the rider paid $86. I would've did it for like $60 and called it good!! But I let the apps play me, man. We gotta do better out in these streets. We gotta fight the right way.
These companies don't like transparency all while fleecing the riders and stiffing the drivers. How can they charge someone $100 a ride like that? That rider ain't gonna tip and more likely think the driver gets all that money, when its all BS. That ride would be a good convert for a cash ride. I would charge the rider $25-30 for that.
You and me both! That's a $35 ride and we good. No need for all that craziness. These apps are outta control!
@@MicDropBBQAnd more than likely , the people who write the code will blame it on a "glitch," and since A.I. can't be controlled due to a "glitch," Pinky will always get the same response when he asks Brain...

Here in Boston area I've never seen fares so low . I'm working longer and longer to make $300, and that's with serious "Cherry Picking", I'm really struggling to justify working Uber anymore. It takes me 8 to 12 hours to make what I used to make in 4 to 5 .....maybe!
Same here. That's why a lot of days go and I just advertise on Facebook and IG and do private rides and walkups. The apps aren't worth the effort, so if I'm gonna put some effort into ANYTHING, it'll be into my own business and getting clients that are willing to pay a fair price.
Whatâs crazy is, if they paid me $40 for that ride, I wouldnât care what they were charging. I will never take any ride to any Amazon location.
The only external fee I will accept is the $5 airport fee. That is what it is. Itâs the 900-2000% markup on their insurance, thatâs the big lie. Here in AZ we know what insurance really costs because we pay it on HUM and itâs basically pennies.
Exactly. We know how much commercial insurance costs and these apps will be like, "...it's about $80/day for insurance if you're doing 15-20 rides. No. It probably costs $1.50/trip for real. We pay $1/day to be on the app - and if we do ALL private rides, that's all we pay for insurance for that day: $1. If we do app rides, we will pay $1.50-$2/ride for trips that are like 10-20 miles. Uber and Lyft charging $4-6 for the same trips in insurance. If it's surging, they're charging TWICE that amount for insurance.
Wow âŒïž
Yeah...this is why we have the rider app and the driver app. We see the whole game.
Hallelujah to conversion real quick
$105 for $17 wtf bro.
they lie on the app all day long about the numbers
Yeah, like I said land out on the beach ocean nighttime Highway one 91 miles basically in order to get back to your house youâre putting about 200 well 180 miles on your car so what am I gonna make $15? Not happening can you imagine how much money they told that customer that trip would be a good $200-$250
On, you know they charged them AT LEAST $200! You ain't even gotta guess that part. They doing the Phoenix airport to Tucson rides like that. 109 miles...$220 charge to customer...driver getting $69. I used to decline em til I talked to the driver at QuikTrip. Now they wont send me one to my phone! LOL! They know I'm about to BANK! I'm gon switch cars to the BMW to save gas, then get $200...then try to get a ride back for $150-200. I'm willing to risk it once to see if it works.
my passanger payments well be like 1k and i get like 500
Crazy, but so damn true! When I was a pigeon back in the day and I didnt cherry-pick as much, that's how it was for me. Uber and Lyft would send me pings the moment I turned my phone on, knowing I would take the popcorn!

That's the trick they use.
Lyft and Uber making bank off programs funded by taxpayers in Massachusetts. $50-$100 fares is normal.
What kinda programs they got out there? Subsidized Uber and Lyft rides to the point where these apps are sucking up tax dollars and not putting nothing back into the community, I bet.

It would have been good if he took the ride to see the breakdown. Now what if you stick around and only do Amazon rides. Now with the bs 70% you should be getting a nice adjustment.
For any Amazon ride, I would automatically convert on the spot. I'd be like, "...what did you pay, because I'm only getting x-amount out of this, and I know the apps upsell Amazon rides to you guys. I'll do it for what you paid."
I paid $9....the company paid the other $95.

They are using company accounts to đstop us from getting cash rides. Guest rides are all they are giving me in my area. Iâm focused on another thing. Fuck these raggedy ass apps. đđđđđ They are watching the channel on the slick. Because we never had these problems until now.
Something is up. I would cancel a guest ride and ask them the real deal. I wouldn't do the ride unless it was cash, but I would definitely have a conversation with the rider to ask what was told to them to start doing guest rides.
We gotta talk on the battlefield to these people. We need intel.
Where I am, they have flooded the apps with some many blubber faced vinnies that I canât even get rides at all most of the time. F screwber!
Wridz shows the rider exactly what the driver gets paid. Uber and Lyft would NEVER do that since it would expose the unethical practices they engage in. If riders could see that they would actually complain to Uber and Lyft directly. I don't think they would stand for it.
@@MicDropBBQ The rider told me his company is paying for the ride. I got $13 and the company paid $27 dollars for the ride. I only did the ride to find out what was going on Jeff. Lately thatâs all they are giving me right now. So I donât drive right now.
Uber isn't much better. When they broadcast a trip to us (that's not a trip radar), we only see the total time from pickup to drop off. It isn't until we accept the trip that we see the time it'll take us from our current location to get to the pickup and Uber won't provide that transparency to inform us of that information. They could literally be asking us to drive into a bad or unsafe location and we won't know until after we decide to take the trip and if we decide to cancel for our own safety, Uber starts leaving threatening messages on your profile about canceling trips and violating Community Guidelines.
We got a community guideline called DONT STEAL OUR TIPS & FARES. Do you think they care? Nope. Therefore, I couldn't care less about their community guidelines.
Amazon pays a portion of the ride? Since when and how? They weren't paying for my rides when i worked at Amazonđź
You probably missed the program or you didn't ask the right people. They probably played you. You know how corporate is.

I use Kinemaster. That's why I left the logo at the top corner of my videos, so people can see what apps I use. I paid for the app - then they took away the watermark!!! So I canceled it because support said when I pay, the watermark is removed. I told them we need the option to leave the watermark so people who wanna do editing can see what we're using.
I love going to channels and looking in the descriptions to see what software they use...what cameras they use...all of that. Even the Lead Attorney shows all of that on his descriptions, as he was one of the FIRST channels I saw do it a long time ago. I was like, "...dude is too cool for that!" That's how you help people out. You let them know what you're using, and they just might have a few bucks in their pocket to get a new camera.

The TEE stands for TRUTH!!! â€ïž
Video funny as heck at the end! #nike
Hahahahahha! The swoosh is frontwards and not backwards!!
New York Uber drivers did it to themselves. They're the ones that wanted to have a minimum wage. Would it be fair for Uber to be forced to allow every person in New York to be an Uber driver and every one of them be on at the exact same time? And everybody decides to work just whenever they want to work so at 2:00 p.m. on a Tuesday or Wednesday you have 5 million drivers when you obviously would not need that many. But Uber still has to pay a minimum rate. You can't say well Uber's a multi billion dollar company they should just take money from another market and give it to New York drivers. That's not fair for the rest of the drivers that should be earning more money also.
Of course they're doing it to gas cars more than they are EV cars. Uber stated goal is all electric by 2030 or something like that. Further incentivize drivers to switch to EV by saying if you want to work we're only doing ev now. And they paid EV cars more anyways. Is there a problem with that? Of course not. Uber wants to do a business model where it's all electric despite how stupid that model is they should do things that encourage people to drive EVs.
Wait til my next video drops. It's about Duress and Undue Influence and how the apps are violating these TOS agreements. It's dropping around 1:30pm today. It's like 11:40am right now, so give it a bit. What you said about EVs is clearly a violation of laws if they are INFLUENCING people to choose electric by creating situations of duress for drivers with gas vehicles.
result of over hiring. they hired too many drivers and most of them were just wasting time and uber was ok with that. and now it hurts them(uber)
Well, technically we're not hired. We're active on the apps, but we don't really work everyday. Drivers like me have Uber, but don't use it that much. Active hours is for pigeons that stay driving for 75hrs our of 84hrs online. That's crazy. If people didnt take TRASH and used their active hours to make more profits, the apps wouldn't be so eager to keep these pigeons online and the apps would pay higher by dropping trash rides. Yet, we have too many pigeons being active.
We still drive, but we drive offline and with private clients that pay. People are paying well, but the apps are paying drivers TRASH. And the rides are more expensive, but the paysouts are worse and worse.
You can't make this upđ
LMAOOOOOOOOOOO! You can TRY to make this up, but you can't make this up. LOL! It's real! LOL!
See Jeff this is where you got it right! They donât think we talk to each other. Well, weâve got the Internet combining with human nature. Ever start a rumored to see how fastit will travel⊠Welcome to the Internet.đđ
Yup! We will get the truth out there, so I had to be a channel NO AFRAID of the truth. So many dodge it and call it "drama", but when you got two apps CHEATING people out of a living, THAT is worth speaking about. I'm not sure many channels are on the same level as drivers. Some have gotten too big to where they think they're also a corporation and can't tell the truth about what's going on. That's just me keeping it real.
I pay for my own commercial car insurance thru progressive. They need to require the drivers to have commercial insurance because I donât wanna pay them for car insurance when I have it already. It isnât that much money when you buy it yourself.
Right now, app drivers are getting double-billed for commercial insurance. Paying for their own PLUS paying Uber/Lyft for the SAME COVERAGE. It's like buying two bottles of water, but drinking one while pouring the one on the ground because you have too much water. LOL! Why buy two??? "...well, because they won't let me just buy one. I only want one, but the force me to do it this way."
@@MicDropBBQ I been in 2 accidents doing Uber, neither was my fault. But I was afraid to use their insurance bcuz I had a feeling I would be penalized if I used theirs. Fortunately, I got paid thru the other peoples insurance since it was their fault.
That's how accidents work. If it's the other person's fault, your insurance can cut you a check and then go after the other driver's insurance thru subrogation. They can even get you deductible back. That's why I'm never worried about wrecking. I don't wreck. Other people out there are the ones that NEED insurance, especially because they're distracted driving, trying to chase every ride out here. These pigeons smashing cars and then worried about drivers like ME who don't wreck. 35yrs driving, and they looking at me like, "...you're gonna total your car."
Have I done that in 35yrs? You think I'm getting WORSE as a driver, or better and more experienced? LOL! These folks are nuts...backwards thinking.
@@MicDropBBQ anyone can get hit, both people rear ended me bcuz they werenât looking or not paying attention
Watching your videos is making me sick to the stomachâŠnow Iâm sat there watching these trips come in and have no interest in accepting anything smh.
That's why my AR on Lyft is probably around 9% and on Uber, I'm around 19%. Most trips aren't worth taking unless you plan on converting them. These apps are not paying drivers ON PURPOSE, just to make sure they can continue to run financial schemes on communities out there.
@@MicDropBBQ weâre basically around the sameâŠnow I donât even wanna accept certain trips I used to accept.
I believe uber is getting desperate.
Lyft in my experience is a lot better.
tell me your a prince fan without telling me you a fan lol
What's a Prince fan gotta do with the video? I think I missed something. LOL!
Oh shit!!! @antoniohalfamazing I'm on the SHORT BUS today! LOL! I just got what you meant hahahaha! Formerly Known As!!! Daaaaaaamn! I'm slow! Now I'm laughing harder at your comment! That shit was good! Hey, you QUICK!
Bro hopefully they let u back on Uber #savebbq
I don't want the truck on Uber. The BMW is still on, and that points me in the right direction of events and surge. I turn Uber on and go thru the Opportunities tab. Once I see where things are, I drive the truck there and do cash rides. LOL! Uber serves a purpose as a LEAD GENERATOR, which is all it is. Generates leads for clients/rides in the regions I wanna work. They are NOT transportation. We are. We go get it!
There was promotion from uber if complete 10 rides by 11 pm they will give me 50$ bonus . So by 10.55 I completed 9 rides just needed 1 more to get 50$ exactly 10.57 pm I got 1 more request I was so happy to complete 10 rides but 11.01 pm it got canceled I was so mad and 11.02 I got the same request from the person that just canceled 1 min ago đą when I picked him up he very cool person and he said he never canceled đź. I was shocked. And I never got the promotion I called uber several times but talking to them is like talking to brick wall
@BOSS.Destroyer Wow! That's even more proof of the games. They used to do us like that with quests back in the day!! They would string us along and on the last one, rider would cancel as you drove towards them. Then a request would pop up and be considered AFTER the time period was up!! I wouldn't get the same rider, but you did. Glad he told you he didn't cancel because I always knew something was shady. It would always be on the 2nd level of my Uber quest. I stopped chasing em, and now we just convert rides. I get my money upfront.
I love your channel. And I really really appreciate everything you have done and continue doing itđ God bless you brother đ
