They need to implement a driver hiring freeze. The driver saturation is insane! Drivers are going to quit because there are not enough rides to go around.
They did a hiring freeze during the pandemic. 70-80% of drivers went on unemployment. I drove during the entire pandemic full time. I was lucky. Never got sick. Was always busy. I know it’s wishful thinking, but doing another freeze to prevent drivers from entering poverty could be wise.

He's making money with TH-cam recording the rideshare issue. Rideshare is dead. We know this. While we get our taxi license we also make money off these vids and we rent our cars out( some don't ( I don't) but we can afford to do these types of vids for the gains)
Hell yea. They ingeniously played the long game well on us. At first there were surges, quest, and higher base fares all together. We were making bank. Our friends thought it was too good to be true and we were miscalculating long term costs. Then base fares started to slowly creep down but it didnt matter because we were still making bank with surges and quests. Then the surges started going away slowly at first then altogether. But it was ok because base fares were going down but still ok at other times. Just keep working a little more. It will be ok. And by the time surges went away completely with grey clouds we noticed the quest were getting lower and lower every week to almost nothing. But it will be ok. We were expecting this as quest were only brought on to encourage more new drivers when the app was new and when pandenmic recover period happened. It was all ok because as long you worked enough hours cherry picked the best rides you were ok. You could still use your experience to make more than new drivers. Then finally quest either went away some weeks or are complete garbage quest. And you thought well it might be ok except now base fares seem to suck too. Then finally just no hiding it. Ping rates per hour have gone to almost nothing even on what used to be the busiest nights and hours. Base fares are simply insulting. The offered quest is completely worthless. Its been a slow boil and all of us frogs failed to ask ourselves, should we get out the fkn pot.
Yeah, I know. I don't mean to be critical. But Uber has changed me into a very bitter person. As you know, it's done that too many people. Thank you for all your informative videos sergio you're really top notch
@@sergioSMTMC1 What I could always count on you for as keeping me very informed. But I do not see any change by either company and making things better. And unfortunately, it's time to move on and not analyze anything that they're doing anymore because none of its any good. You basically just have to pack up your car and move on to something else.
These videos never help me a bit…the miles per gallon is trash, you’re out 8hrs to make any profit, the maker is just trash I’d suggest to any not to use this app
@@jforbes1236 You obviously haven't followed this man for very long. So you don't have any idea what you're talking about? Until you do, it's best not to make any negative comments toward somebody. He has nothing but good intentions to try to help people to make as much money as they possibly can. The only solution to you, not making any money is finding another job and not contributing. Putting a lot of money in uber's pocket and not in yours
Absolutely! My goal everyday is $30 an hour. Lately I'm averaging $34/$35 an hour. I do not accept less than $5 rides unless there is a large surge or hourly bonus. Uber $5+ surge and Lyft $6 per ride hours. Made $36.29 including bonus in 1 hr. Last week I made $84 in top hour. $1176 in 36.25 hours.
❤❤❤EVIL Dara has taken over San Diego, California, with Businesses Comfort rides in my market! It is still a rate cut from the "old days "!! Lyft CEO has been outsmarted!!!
On the bottom of the app I noticed that "you're online" never flipped over to "finding trips". It's supposed to go back n forth. This happens frequently to me in my market so if I see it hasn't flipped in a minute or so I back completely out of the app and then back in. Then it flips to "finding trips" and I get a request rather quickly. If that doesn't work I walk around with phone in hand and sometimes that will trigger the flip and then an incoming request.
Intresting. I was starting to notice and was about to eperiment that it seems like when I am stationary the app simply slows down and gives me nothing. But the moment I put my book down and start to move the car it seems like thats when i get a ping. So was wondering if it really is intentional or all in my head. Like they want us aimlessly in motion in a way to have more coverage instead of just parked reading.
@@calvinhosworld there is definitely something to the stationary thing. Happens yoo often and too consistently for me to think otherwise. I do Eats as well and it's more prevalent on Eats. Sit in car, dead for 5 minutes. Get out of car, take 10 steps...boom, ping lol.
I just noticed this tonight. It says “You’re online”, but you’re right. I sat for 20 minutes and it never switched to “finding rides”. It didn’t change when I started to drive around though. I did notice it switched to “finding trips” when I got closer to home in a slower area. I tried restarting the app and restarting my phone but it didn’t change anything. I think you’re onto something.
Don’t forget that if you make enough with regular Uber rideshare to cover prop 22 pay and extra, that extra amount will go toward your proper 22 Uber eats pay also, and you’ll end up with no extra pay for your Uber eats. It just takes one long Uber ride that pays extra well, and then you’ll end up with no extra pay for your Uber eats prop 22. You’re basically paying yourself your own prop 22 pay, very annoying. This applies if you are using a single account for both Uber rideshare and Uber eats.
That is my 2024 goal. I have switched from focusing on $1/mile to $30/hour. You can get trips paying $27-35 hour no problem, but dead time between trips ends up cutting that hourly rate way down.
No, now YOU understand what we mean when we talk about "over-saturation." Most markets have been like this for a looooooooooooooooooooooooooong time. Cherry picking & setting your af/df in a big surge zone aren't viable strategies when there is no surge and 10 to 20+ minutes between pings is normal.
Over-saturation is turning Drivers into Delivery Drivers... I've noticed deliveries have become more streamlined though, restaurants are more timely and drop-offs a bit mire smooth
Is $32/active hour after your car/insurance payment. Uber is full of it. Then add unexpected expenses like an $800 windshield replacement (which will happen driving so many miles) or insurance deductible, or vandalism to your car, or hit and run.. It's a risky proposition. You are rolling the dice overtime you get in your car.
We should not even acknowledge that term active hour. I calculate my pay by online hours. For i am actively looking for trips during that time. This week, i made $13.73 per hour before expenses, and that includes several comfort trips. In my market( DFW), the app does not calculate active hours, only on line hours. Though i would not acknowledge it if it did.
@bryandavis8789 👍🏿 Active hrs is a BAMBOOZLING TECHNIQUE create by Uber...THATS LIKE MCDONALDS SAYING YOU PUNCH IN BUT WE ARE NOT PAYING UNTIL SOMEONE ORDERS FOOD..THIS IS ILLEGAL IN SO MANY WAYS BUT UBER PAY THERE POLITICANS SO ITS TOLERATED..But let them checks stop...👀..
Those who still driving are making $32-$40 per hour that’s why they are still driving. I’m not making anywhere near $22 per hour so I’m only driving on the weekend during peak hours.
@@d.fenestrator9529 That don’t make sense at all! Why continue driving when making less? I went back to W2 and quit driving on the weekday I only go out and drive when surge come on and the moment surge is gone I’m out!
I’ve learned a couple new realities this week. One, I accept absolutely no rides that pay under $2.35/mi. (Know your breakeven number) AND I no longer accept rides with STOPS (they are often likely drug dealers taking you into BAD neighborhoods and endangering your safety and/or life). I know now from my very recent experience. I was unknowingly put into this situation and you can’t escape it if the dealer is in your car with a loaded gun he had concealed and doesn’t get out, and then just hands the “goods/drugs” to his “cousin” outside the window. You’re trapped and can’t do much about it. What are you going to do, get out of your car to run through a dark neighborhood you’re not familiar with late at night?? NOT. Also, DO NOT SHARE ANY personal information or permit any photos with a rider who you suspect as suspicious or questionable. P.S. UBER did NOT share (or even indicate) a specific stop location upon asking me to accept and provide a ride.
This is sad. Uber is banking on desperation to fill its drivers. I always say follow the money and the money is NOT HERE. Get a different job and save yourself.
Yep that's exactly how it's been lately on my end too. Just watch the whole video. And I have to say that's how all the comforts have been. Just like lift turning their Lux in the comfort plus. Comfort pays the same amount as a base ride now. I remember the glory days were used to pay like 3 or 4 times the amount of a base ride. Not anymore.. Not to be negative but they literally are running all the driver pay for every category of ride into the ground
Seating and waiting for trips is not your biggest issue as it helps you rest. The issue is when a trip comes Uber grabs the most money. I remember a few years ago, I could wait for 45 minutes at times and at the end the day still make good money. Today I could drive for 12 hours straight I still make less than back when I used to wait for 20 to 45 minutes for trips. Ridesharing is a scam now.
Same here. It says it's been busy this weekend but being out in the field it's been slow. Also have the same commentary from another driver that the app says very busy but very little is coming through and for the stuff that is it's paying roughly $20 an hour active time.
Once app is on, we are active. I waited for 35 minutes and first ride I got was pick up a passenger 3 miles away 6 minutes away that’s 41 minutes active so far drove 7 miles during rush hour on a gray area for 28 minutes for $13.82. Total time active so far 1 hour and 9 minutes for $13.82 while they probably charge $30 dollars.
$3.51 is ridiculous. I’ve gone thru that where the tip was cancelled and I delivered for $3 and change and wasted 27 minutes. Never again! You make $7 bucks an hour how does anyone survive on that?
Sergio is THE MAN. He’s actually out in the field seeing what’s actually happening. It’s over. The ONLY rideshare strategy is to find or create a job that generates enough money so that you don’t have to do rideshare
Let me tell all drivers ,the only way for you to make it decent is to use your rideshare apps to get people going to work everyday and underprice uber and lfyt build your clients if your going to do this fulltime ,and just use commercial insurance to cover your passengers,I dont do yhis because for me I have a fulltime job ,but was doing this during covid
No, its not possible at least here in Phoenix. However, with Door Dash, I consistently make $23 per hour to $32 per hour.. Last night since it rained and hailed here in Phoenix all day I did $155 in 5 hours... However, I have been in the large order program since last May, and that makes a huge difference, even with my now 18% acceptance rate. Outside of the large order program, I can guarantee you that top dashers are making about $22 or less per hour before expenses.
@@sergioSMTMC1 I believe per mile is meaningless anywhere because it’s not the same all the time. 2 miles could be 2 minutes or 14 depending on traffic but 2 minutes is 2 minutes no matter where you’re at
@@MR-si2cd You could make the same argument in the opposite direction, 2 miles is 2 miles of required maintenance no matter how long it takes to cross.
My market does not show active hours on the app, only online hours. Though i calculate active hiurs in my head and calculator, i carry with me. Most of the requests i receive are less than $20 per active hour. Occasionally the confort trips will be slightly more, but even most comfort trips are paying less than $1 a mile.
@sergioSMTMC1 It's tricky cus we have the option to reject rides/deliveries while logged in. So maybe there needs to be some sort of compensation or incentive to accept more rides per hour or per time logged on?? I know most will say " yes it's pay" but maybe there is an amount uber can add to those who accept more so we're compensated for taking on more trash jobs?????? I don't know \_0_/
I have a friend that has a airport transportation company and he usually gives me rides that are worth a 100 dollars for each ride. The only thing is that I am currently driving a hertz rent a car so I don't have commercial insurance so I have to go out and buy myself a vehicle and put commercial insurance on it so that I am not taking any risk.
I just got a notification that if I drive between 5:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. Monday through Friday at $24 an hour which is a far cry from the $31 promised!
Talk more how prop 22 works as far is how it accumulates, talk about it on show me the money please. Also ask drivers or yourself that show the extra payout. Ive never expierenced it!! Great Video!!
When I go to drop off a rider in Orange County I noticed there is always little surges in different spots. After New Years Los Angeles has 0 surge for my account and i been here over 4 years now.
i have my 2 items orders which is 2 plastic bags full stack food prob worth almost $100 of it and I accidentally accepted during $7 trip and it said +$4 when i was on the way to dropping off first trip. and I only made of $11.08 from that trip and I had to travel all the way out from the city to another city for about like 7.7 mile for 37 minutes. Not sure how this delivery even work or worth.
Recommendation: Drivers should seriously consider, with Sergio coordinating the effort, calling for a Nationwide Strike. The way to send an impactful message to Uber we all need a raise of rates to at least guarantee a minimum of $8 on EVERY trip. To do this, ALL drivers MUST work together. How? Turn off the UBER APP at an agreed specified hour nationwide. (i.e. - at 4:30 pm on Wednesday Jan 10) ALL drivers cooperatively agree to shut down for two hours. This would get UBER’s attention and make them realize that more pay is needed now. UBER is taking over 60% on Miami based rides in my experience. WTF ! Also I don’t think riders would stop using the app as they value the UBER service and need it when traveling as it is cheaper than a cab or renting a car.
Yes. I live in the Washington DC area. You make on average between 15 to $18 an hour over here. And cost of living in DC is very hot. Uber found every way to steal and take from the drives. They used to pay $5 if a passenger didn't show
Can someone suggest what would be the best option to do delivery alongside the rideshare with Uber. I mean door dash, or Uber eats or skip the dishes. I live in Kitchener Waterloo area Canada.
When i was doing it, and it still is, i found out the app was designed to give you a specific amount in 4/8hrs on busy days 4 hrs close or equal 100, while 8 hrs between 170 to 200, you couldn’t beat it. Crappy company
I was out today in my hot zone for lunch, I have a 4.92 customer rating, 80% Acceptance rate, 94% completion, 93% on time or early... I made $11 in three hours today and every offer sent me to the ghetto. I also put 79 miles on my car like a dumbsss thinking ok I'll take shit and it'll get better. It did not! I finally said f it and went home. Last night I made $99 in 6 hours. Its beco ing garbage, uber eats is worse, Lyft and uber are also shit too. Less than a dollar a mile most of the time. Spark is garbage here too.
Does Uber guarantee Prop 22 minimum wage per ride/delivery or do they calculate your pay over some time period (day, week, two weeks) and figure out your dollars per hour over that timespan? Is waiting time counted? Is pickup time counted? Is waiting time after arrival counted? Or is just the ride time counted?
It is calculated by your active time. From the miles to get to your destination for pick up, then pick up to delivery. They accumulate all hours and mileage and that's your amount you'll be paid every two weeks.
@@doinitwell67 I think I still don't understand. If I make $3 below Prop 22 wage on one ride and make $3 above Prop 22 wage on the next ride, do the two cancel, or do I make Prop 22 wage on one ride becaues they top it off and then make $3 above Prop 22 wage on the next ride? It just seems that if you get some rides above and others below, then they end up canceling or averaging out, and you don't necessarily get paid extra for any single ride.
Late in responding, I just saw question. It's not looking at individual orders, your pay will be determined by your accumulated work. Everything is added together.
Uber Pay focuses on time-driven. if it's not busy. Uber pays the driver ~ $22-20. Rush time you can get around $32. For a 20-minute ride, uber will offer something close to $7-5 and keep increasing the pay until a driver accepts it.
It's funny how Uber got Drivers making peanuts but spun it(active hrs) to make u think ur getting more money. On any job as soon as u turn that app on thats what u should count. Uber doesn't have active hrs when they are taking 70% of your fare.👀 Your really making 12 buck an hr but active hrs 💩 your making 24hr...Smdh...Folks are getting bamboozled big time..🤡
If you are online on Uber or any ridesharing app and you car engine is running idle..but no passenger rider..still counted hours wasted..you on stanby mode just waiting for customers or passenger..but not getting paid..thats yout time hours wasted for not getting paid.
@@sergioSMTMC1 comparable to a taxi, it's the exact same thing, or better yet rideshare companies need to bring everything back to the way it was 6 years ago , 80/20 even split and the surge multiplier system, all drivers will be happy and be able to operate our side of the business, we don't make enough to cover expenses let alone a rainy day when something catastrophic happens to our vehicles, I'm on my 3 vehicle for rideshare, I do it full time and have a dedicated vehicle just for it , drivers are making 70% less and customers are paying more then ever
That’s true. It’s a sign of weakness. It’s an embarrassment to oneself. I am a full time driver now and I have reached that conclusion. I am on my way out. I hate Dara. I can’t even look at his face.
9am on a saturday. Maybe by 930 945am it might oickup for those needing to be to work ar 10am. 10am to 2pm would probably be semi steady. But your market may be flooded with drivers. I dont believe its ever often for 32 an hour for that long. I did a 30an hour today saturday for 6.5hours straight. It is true you have to work the hours the MARKET needs you. So no it shouldnt. If there is no market we lyft and uber would tell you to go home. Like they do in every other employee.
Wow you are drinking toe kool-aid, what employee? Do you know how oversaturated the markets are, ive been around this block for 8 years, this is the slowest ive experienced
@sergioSMTMC1 it slow because of the number of drivers online. Theres hundreds near you. Its slow because of the amount of people who cant find other jobs but you can always lyft and uber. Thats a pitfall of a free and open market. But you want us to pay you a dedicated wage just to be online when theres not enough customers for everyone. You want a closed market that only allows the drivers to fill the market. That then gets to define when it needs or doesnt need you to drive. I prefer an open market and i moved to a market that could support me in these troubled times. I didnt go blaming the creators of a free and open market because they allow everyone in and theres too many of you online. But yes thats kool aid...
@sergioSMTMC1 and I am discussing it on a message board. And thats perfectly fine for me. I have no need to show this discord in a live chat. Im perfectly capable right here.
I agree on delivering food Surg it can be a pain in the ass especially in apartments. I don't have Uber eats cause Uber segragated deliverers from driving afew years back. I do Door dash sometimes.
The problem with this 2 companies is that they hire anybody with a bike they saturated the market now they give our trips to yellow cabs in NYC too and I heard now they want to hire illegal immigrants cause they can get license. The $32 that we make half is going to the executive salaries.
I had a Jersey Mikes Order that came into me @ $39.97 for 12 mi accept get to the store. They told me someone else picked it up so they probably stole it. they remade the order for me and I got within 3 miles of the customers house and the customer cancel I’ll get for base pay which ended up being $35. FTW.
Not really for free, the tax payers paid for the food because it was one of the typical delivery scams with a fraudulent customer or driver and it winds up going down as a loss in everyone’s ledger that ultimately circumvents tax code. So 400 million Americans each paid like a penny for his lunch. Funnier when you look at it like this, but also more alarming.
And then you will get a nasty message saying they detected fraudulent activity on your side.. meaning you stole the food.. threatening you to get deactivated.. it happened to me because a lousy person cancel her order and a I called uber support to ask them what do i do with the food tgey said keep it.. next morning their fuc.. nasty message
I ignore the $$$ as well. As it says, 'historical' data within the last 28 days. Drivers in my town seem to flock to them. I just drive away from them if they are near me. Those $$$ don't mean anything to me. I just started driving & use the Uber app to see where the other cars are as well. Figured that on my own before I started following this page. Common sense. But it's not bad, usually 8 cars out during the day (small town here) and about 3 cars around midnight & from 1am to 6am, usually just one car parked somewhere. Nothing is open from 1am on.
Nope i signed up to drive people and that is all i want to do they can shove all that other crap where the sun doesn't shine im an independent contractor i want to do what i signed up for 80/20dplit driving people period
I wouldn’t have done either of those rides. There’s really no difference between the $3 ride and the $5 ride, actually I would say that the $3 ride is the better one if you’re using it to complete your quest otherwise they’re all trash. When I was doing DoorDash I hated having to hunt down people that were supposed to be hungry but were not actively waiting for their food.
@@Therideshareguy I don’t sit in my car and I don’t sit at the airport. Luckily for me, I get good rides just sitting at home. Are you not aware of the quests? Do x amount of rides for x amount of money? I don’t do them anymore but there was a time I used to. Also you have to think that some of those rides don’t translate the same to other drivers based on their location. I earn money by taking good rides and by not wasting time on garbage. A bad ride will always prevent you from getting a good ride because you’re taking yourself off the board for trash. Sometimes you make money by not wasting money. This business is not about being busy, it’s about being profitable.
The only time they pay $30 an hour was on New years Eve and I figure out they did that because nobody work on Christmas with those rates they where paying plus the protest they had on that day they need to give out something to get drivers on the street now is new years and not even 1 promotion on this slow week. This 2 companies like playing sycology games when it only benefits them look now new years and we are averaging $14 $16 an hour or less now they don't pay $30 cause they have enough drivers on the streets.
They need to implement a driver hiring freeze. The driver saturation is insane! Drivers are going to quit because there are not enough rides to go around.
Will never happen
True. Not just one city, everywhere
They did a hiring freeze during the pandemic. 70-80% of drivers went on unemployment. I drove during the entire pandemic full time. I was lucky. Never got sick. Was always busy. I know it’s wishful thinking, but doing another freeze to prevent drivers from entering poverty could be wise.

Am in grand Junction Colorado. I went from making 1200 a week to 600 a week. I can’t pay bills and groceries.Time to quit. More jobs that will pay 30 an hour. Leave Uber for looses.
Wow, good luck to you, wish you the best
I made $13 in an hour in the same area yesterday. I went home after that.
Minus $4-$5 for gas.. you made around $8-$9 an hour.. not counting other expenses.. wear and tear on your car.. if you are lucky you brake even
Right now it’s going to be slow until late February, early March. That’s why Uber has to pay right when it’s busy season.
$11-15 seems to be the new normal without surges or bonuses
Work smarter not harder people. I maximize my earnings by driving when it’s busy. I do rides and deliveries.
Sure
I have seen anything this weekend, nothing on the 6th and nothing on the 7th.

We were expecting this as quest were only brought on to encourage more new drivers when the app was new and when pandenmic recover period happened.
It was all ok because as long you worked enough hours cherry picked the best rides you were ok. You could still use your experience to make more than new drivers.
Then finally quest either went away some weeks or are complete garbage quest. And you thought well it might be ok except now base fares seem to suck too.

I’d suggest to any not to use this app
@@jforbes1236 You obviously haven't followed this man for very long. So you don't have any idea what you're talking about? Until you do, it's best not to make any negative comments toward somebody. He has nothing but good intentions to try to help people to make as much money as they possibly can. The only solution to you, not making any money is finding another job and not contributing. Putting a lot of money in uber's pocket and not in yours
Absolutely! My goal everyday is $30 an hour. Lately I'm averaging $34/$35 an hour. I do not accept less than $5 rides unless there is a large surge or hourly bonus. Uber $5+ surge and Lyft $6 per ride hours. Made $36.29 including bonus in 1 hr. Last week I made $84 in top hour. $1176 in 36.25 hours.
The Lyft app keeps getting worse and worse
❤❤❤EVIL Dara has taken over San Diego, California, with Businesses Comfort rides in my market! It is still a rate cut from the "old days "!! Lyft CEO has been outsmarted!!!
I CAN ANSWER THAT IN THREE WORDS .....NOT ..ANY MORE.
On the bottom of the app I noticed that "you're online" never flipped over to "finding trips". It's supposed to go back n forth. This happens frequently to me in my market so if I see it hasn't flipped in a minute or so I back completely out of the app and then back in. Then it flips to "finding trips" and I get a request rather quickly. If that doesn't work I walk around with phone in hand and sometimes that will trigger the flip and then an incoming request.
Intresting. I was starting to notice and was about to eperiment that it seems like when I am stationary the app simply slows down and gives me nothing. But the moment I put my book down and start to move the car it seems like thats when i get a ping. So was wondering if it really is intentional or all in my head.
Like they want us aimlessly in motion in a way to have more coverage instead of just parked reading.
@@calvinhosworld there is definitely something to the stationary thing. Happens yoo often and too consistently for me to think otherwise. I do Eats as well and it's more prevalent on Eats. Sit in car, dead for 5 minutes. Get out of car, take 10 steps...boom, ping lol.
Interesting!! Do either of you have a beacon in your vehicles? I've been sitting for over 3 hours and nothing.
I just noticed this tonight. It says “You’re online”, but you’re right. I sat for 20 minutes and it never switched to “finding rides”. It didn’t change when I started to drive around though. I did notice it switched to “finding trips” when I got closer to home in a slower area. I tried restarting the app and restarting my phone but it didn’t change anything.
I think you’re onto something.
@@robinrienerth6521 I don't
Don’t forget that if you make enough with regular Uber rideshare to cover prop 22 pay and extra, that extra amount will go toward your proper 22 Uber eats pay also, and you’ll end up with no extra pay for your Uber eats. It just takes one long Uber ride that pays extra well, and then you’ll end up with no extra pay for your Uber eats prop 22. You’re basically paying yourself your own prop 22 pay, very annoying. This applies if you are using a single account for both Uber rideshare and Uber eats.
Yep, my Rideshare is subsidizing my eats side
That is my 2024 goal. I have switched from focusing on $1/mile to $30/hour. You can get trips paying $27-35 hour no problem, but dead time between trips ends up cutting that hourly rate way down.
That's why you keep the app on
No, now YOU understand what we mean when we talk about "over-saturation." Most markets have been like this for a looooooooooooooooooooooooooong time. Cherry picking & setting your af/df in a big surge zone aren't viable strategies when there is no surge and 10 to 20+ minutes between pings is normal.
It boils down to $12-14 per hour with Online to Offline status for 8hr normal work shift. What about income tax? Car depreciation? Gas?
Over-saturation is turning Drivers into Delivery Drivers... I've noticed deliveries have become more streamlined though, restaurants are more timely and drop-offs a bit mire smooth
Same thing happening here in Fresno, Sergio.
Is $32/active hour after your car/insurance payment. Uber is full of it. Then add unexpected expenses like an $800 windshield replacement (which will happen driving so many miles) or insurance deductible, or vandalism to your car, or hit and run.. It's a risky proposition. You are rolling the dice overtime you get in your car.
It is not. It is thirty two per active hour including tips of incentives before expenses.
We should not even acknowledge that term active hour. I calculate my pay by online hours. For i am actively looking for trips during that time. This week, i made $13.73 per hour before expenses, and that includes several comfort trips. In my market( DFW), the app does not calculate active hours, only on line hours. Though i would not acknowledge it if it did.
@bryandavis8789 👍🏿 Active hrs is a BAMBOOZLING TECHNIQUE create by Uber...THATS LIKE MCDONALDS SAYING YOU PUNCH IN BUT WE ARE NOT PAYING UNTIL SOMEONE ORDERS FOOD..THIS IS ILLEGAL IN SO MANY WAYS BUT UBER PAY THERE POLITICANS SO ITS TOLERATED..But let them checks stop...👀..
They do it here in Fresno without a blink of an eye
You mean the 3? Wow
More like $15 an hour after expenses , but you have to drive like a slave !
Yes. 84 hours a week. It’s worse than slavery.
Those who still driving are making $32-$40 per hour that’s why they are still driving. I’m not making anywhere near $22 per hour so I’m only driving on the weekend during peak hours.
You're delusional. Lots of drivers are driving and making less.
@@d.fenestrator9529
That don’t make sense at all! Why continue driving when making less?
I went back to W2 and quit driving on the weekday I only go out and drive when surge come on and the moment surge is gone I’m out!
I'm one of the drivers making $32 - $40 lol.
How?@@kevinmiller4590
I’ve learned a couple new realities this week. One, I accept absolutely no rides that pay under $2.35/mi. (Know your breakeven number) AND I no longer accept rides with STOPS (they are often likely drug dealers taking you into BAD neighborhoods and endangering your safety and/or life). I know now from my very recent experience. I was unknowingly put into this situation and you can’t escape it if the dealer is in your car with a loaded gun he had concealed and doesn’t get out, and then just hands the “goods/drugs” to his “cousin” outside the window. You’re trapped and can’t do much about it. What are you going to do, get out of your car to run through a dark neighborhood you’re not familiar with late at night?? NOT. Also, DO NOT SHARE ANY personal information or permit any photos with a rider who you suspect as suspicious or questionable. P.S. UBER did NOT share (or even indicate) a specific stop location upon asking me to accept and provide a ride.
2.35 a mile? You'd be waiting for days in LA
Since Dara assumed the CEO position, he destroyed hundreds of thousands of drivers’ families...
My new strategy is go wait at the gym while i work out 😅
😂😂
This is sad. Uber is banking on desperation to fill its drivers. I always say follow the money and the money is NOT HERE. Get a different job and save yourself.
Customers are taking taxis again instead of rideshare
Sometimes cabs are cheaper these days
Good for them. I want Uber to disappear
Yep that's exactly how it's been lately on my end too. Just watch the whole video. And I have to say that's how all the comforts have been. Just like lift turning their Lux in the comfort plus. Comfort pays the same amount as a base ride now. I remember the glory days were used to pay like 3 or 4 times the amount of a base ride. Not anymore.. Not to be negative but they literally are running all the driver pay for every category of ride into the ground
Had Uber eats on for 4 hours I’ve made $22 taking everything, luckily I made $100 on door dash in the same amount of time
I sat for 38 minutes in a red surge??? San Diego Oceanside with Uber. I gave up.... it's been a year since I stopped driving for them
Seating and waiting for trips is not your biggest issue as it helps you rest. The issue is when a trip comes Uber grabs the most money. I remember a few years ago, I could wait for 45 minutes at times and at the end the day still make good money. Today I could drive for 12 hours straight I still make less than back when I used to wait for 20 to 45 minutes for trips. Ridesharing is a scam now.
It's so slow right now anyone else ?
Schools are out and people are still on vacations. Hopefully after the 15th
January is always a slow month. You need to work the airports.
Same here. It says it's been busy this weekend but being out in the field it's been slow. Also have the same commentary from another driver that the app says very busy but very little is coming through and for the stuff that is it's paying roughly $20 an hour active time.
Watch the video
Its dead
Not now.
I used to make 30 an hour on Sundays but that has gone to the birds lol.
Another thing with delivery..its, 70% a three flight stair hike with either 5 bags groceries, or a happy meal. Its either the car or my knees.
Once app is on, we are active.
I waited for 35 minutes and first ride I got was pick up a passenger 3 miles away 6 minutes away that’s 41 minutes active so far drove 7 miles during rush hour on a gray area for 28 minutes for $13.82. Total time active so far 1 hour and 9 minutes for $13.82 while they probably charge $30 dollars.
$3.51 is ridiculous. I’ve gone thru that where the tip was cancelled and I delivered for $3 and change and wasted 27 minutes. Never again! You make $7 bucks an hour how does anyone survive on that?
All I get in Chicago since November is $3-5 rides. I'm barely making $14/hr :(
@@sk-un5jq terrible!
The answer is no after expenses no
Their number is before expenses including tips and incentives
Then they should stop telling new people that they can
Spoiler Alert: No
Sergio is THE MAN. He’s actually out in the field seeing what’s actually happening. It’s over. The ONLY rideshare strategy is to find or create a job that generates enough money so that you don’t have to do rideshare
Let me tell all drivers ,the only way for you to make it decent is to use your rideshare apps to get people going to work everyday and underprice uber and lfyt build your clients if your going to do this fulltime ,and just use commercial insurance to cover your passengers,I dont do yhis because for me I have a fulltime job ,but was doing this during covid
The answer is:No
No, its not possible at least here in Phoenix. However, with Door Dash, I consistently make $23 per hour to $32 per hour.. Last night since it rained and hailed here in Phoenix all day I did $155 in 5 hours... However, I have been in the large order program since last May, and that makes a huge difference, even with my now 18% acceptance rate. Outside of the large order program, I can guarantee you that top dashers are making about $22 or less per hour before expenses.
Let's talk about how much a driver earns per mile and minute. That is the legit question. Forget about earning per hour.
We are not employees okay?
Per mile is meaningless in LA where 5 miles could take you 30 minutes to go
Research opportunity cost.
@@sergioSMTMC1 I believe per mile is meaningless anywhere because it’s not the same all the time. 2 miles could be 2 minutes or 14 depending on traffic but 2 minutes is 2 minutes no matter where you’re at
@@MR-si2cd You could make the same argument in the opposite direction, 2 miles is 2 miles of required maintenance no matter how long it takes to cross.
@@nikidelvalle we’re not talking about maintenance, we’re talking about earnings
Your hours should count to from the time you sign in to the time you sign out. During that time you are are dedicating your time to them.
I agree, was just putting it out there but the company doesn't count that
My market does not show active hours on the app, only online hours. Though i calculate active hiurs in my head and calculator, i carry with me. Most of the requests i receive are less than $20 per active hour. Occasionally the confort trips will be slightly more, but even most comfort trips are paying less than $1 a mile.
@sergioSMTMC1 It's tricky cus we have the option to reject rides/deliveries while logged in. So maybe there needs to be some sort of compensation or incentive to accept more rides per hour or per time logged on?? I know most will say " yes it's pay" but maybe there is an amount uber can add to those who accept more so we're compensated for taking on more trash jobs?????? I don't know \_0_/
The driver won't make $ 32/hour without surge, bonus.
But surge with upfront fares is base fare replacement, however I agree with you
@@sergioSMTMC1 don't forget for the taxes 15% by the end of the year. Most rideshare drivers are struggling to pay their taxes
I have a friend that has a airport transportation company and he usually gives me rides that are worth a 100 dollars for each ride. The only thing is that I am currently driving a hertz rent a car so I don't have commercial insurance so I have to go out and buy myself a vehicle and put commercial insurance on it so that I am not taking any risk.
That you have to do, huge risk
@@sergioSMTMC1 No risk no reward as they say
I just got a notification that if I drive between 5:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. Monday through Friday at $24 an hour which is a far cry from the $31 promised!
150th one here for thumbs up! Thanks for the positive attitude. :D
thanks, attitude is important
Careful going into the gray clouds. You might get depressed 🤣
Talk more how prop 22 works as far is how it accumulates, talk about it on show me the money please. Also ask drivers or yourself that show the extra payout. Ive never expierenced it!! Great Video!!
thanks, we will
Main reason i didn't like combined delivery/ride...it stinks the car up. Equipment takes up car room.
When I go to drop off a rider in Orange County I noticed there is always little surges in different spots. After New Years Los Angeles has 0 surge for my account and i been here over 4 years now.
11:15 why does it say "exclusive" next to delivery?
That's new, it's exclusive to me until I reject it
Oh my effing God that noise could you please turn it off
i have my 2 items orders which is 2 plastic bags full stack food prob worth almost $100 of it and I accidentally accepted during $7 trip and it said +$4 when i was on the way to dropping off first trip. and I only made of $11.08 from that trip and I had to travel all the way out from the city to another city for about like 7.7 mile for 37 minutes. Not sure how this delivery even work or worth.
Thank you ATTITUDE is everything 🎉🎉🎉
💯
@@sergioSMTMC1Thanks to Prop22 or else you would be getting deliveries for $2 tips included for 20 minutes
Hello, I just got this on Sunday. Snow on Monday where I am.
God 135 cars at LAX surg. At our little airport in New Zealand lucky to have 20 to 30 in the Que😮
Recommendation: Drivers should seriously consider, with Sergio coordinating the effort, calling for a Nationwide Strike. The way to send an impactful message to Uber we all need a raise of rates to at least guarantee a minimum of $8 on EVERY trip.
To do this, ALL drivers MUST work together. How? Turn off the UBER APP at an agreed specified hour nationwide. (i.e. - at 4:30 pm on Wednesday Jan 10) ALL drivers cooperatively agree to shut down for two hours. This would get UBER’s attention and make them realize that more pay is needed now. UBER is taking over 60% on Miami based rides in my experience. WTF ! Also I don’t think riders would stop using the app as they value the UBER service and need it when traveling as it is cheaper than a cab or renting a car.
Strikes don't work, but we have a lot of stuff on the burner
$9 for 2.7 miles, never ever see that in my market... cali must be nice
Thanks for the tip
Mileage alone doesn't tell the story. Per hour rate is more important
Yes. I live in the Washington DC area. You make on average between 15 to $18 an hour over here. And cost of living in DC is very hot. Uber found every way to steal and take from the drives. They used to pay $5 if a passenger didn't show
It is not worth it to sign up for Uber. They ain't paying the damn thing once they went public is about the shareholders that's it that all
Crazy all helps no demands!
The expected tip is a scam, i dont get that many tips so i dont get the upfront amount.
It is. This is why I never tip upfront. I always tip after the delivery is complete.
Can someone suggest what would be the best option to do delivery alongside the rideshare with Uber. I mean door dash, or Uber eats or skip the dishes. I live in Kitchener Waterloo area Canada.
As many apps you can get on, you should, turn them all on and grab the best one
Independent contractor has the right to choose the $$$ or deny!
I'm $45-$50 active hour Lyft Jan. 1- Jan. 7 Los Angeles County
Not by base rates, send me your numbers sergio@therideshareguy.com
When i was doing it, and it still is, i found out the app was designed to give you a specific amount in 4/8hrs on busy days 4 hrs close or equal 100, while 8 hrs between 170 to 200, you couldn’t beat it. Crappy company
no way man! i am not sure with all surge zones either
You should be making an average of $100 per 4hrs
I was out today in my hot zone for lunch, I have a 4.92 customer rating, 80% Acceptance rate, 94% completion, 93% on time or early... I made $11 in three hours today and every offer sent me to the ghetto. I also put 79 miles on my car like a dumbsss thinking ok I'll take shit and it'll get better. It did not! I finally said f it and went home. Last night I made $99 in 6 hours. Its beco ing garbage, uber eats is worse, Lyft and uber are also shit too. Less than a dollar a mile most of the time. Spark is garbage here too.

Does Uber guarantee Prop 22 minimum wage per ride/delivery or do they calculate your pay over some time period (day, week, two weeks) and figure out your dollars per hour over that timespan? Is waiting time counted? Is pickup time counted? Is waiting time after arrival counted? Or is just the ride time counted?
It is calculated by your active time. From the miles to get to your destination for pick up, then pick up to delivery. They accumulate all hours and mileage and that's your amount you'll be paid every two weeks.
@@doinitwell67 I think I still don't understand. If I make $3 below Prop 22 wage on one ride and make $3 above Prop 22 wage on the next ride, do the two cancel, or do I make Prop 22 wage on one ride becaues they top it off and then make $3 above Prop 22 wage on the next ride? It just seems that if you get some rides above and others below, then they end up canceling or averaging out, and you don't necessarily get paid extra for any single ride.
Late in responding, I just saw question. It's not looking at individual orders, your pay will be determined by your accumulated work. Everything is added together.
ATL $28 hr
Uber Pay focuses on time-driven. if it's not busy. Uber pays the driver ~ $22-20. Rush time you can get around $32. For a 20-minute ride, uber will offer something close to $7-5 and keep increasing the pay until a driver accepts it.
It's funny how Uber got Drivers making peanuts but spun it(active hrs) to make u think ur getting more money. On any job as soon as u turn that app on thats what u should count. Uber doesn't have active hrs when they are taking 70% of your fare.👀 Your really making 12 buck an hr but active hrs 💩 your making 24hr...Smdh...Folks are getting bamboozled big time..🤡
That was then. Today, with the Upfront pricing Uber will never offer $32 for a 20 minutes ride. NEVER. Not even $25.
If you are online on Uber or any ridesharing app and you car engine is running idle..but no passenger rider..still counted hours wasted..you on stanby mode just waiting for customers or passenger..but not getting paid..thats yout time hours wasted for not getting paid.
WHEN DO YOU GET PROP EARNINGS? After your shift or weekly
every two weeks
No they cannot, this isn't an hourly job and should never be treated as one
Ok, how do you measure it then, what is it compatible or comparable to
@@sergioSMTMC1 comparable to a taxi, it's the exact same thing, or better yet rideshare companies need to bring everything back to the way it was 6 years ago , 80/20 even split and the surge multiplier system, all drivers will be happy and be able to operate our side of the business, we don't make enough to cover expenses let alone a rainy day when something catastrophic happens to our vehicles, I'm on my 3 vehicle for rideshare, I do it full time and have a dedicated vehicle just for it , drivers are making 70% less and customers are paying more then ever
Driving uber is a sign of loosing hope on your self
That’s true. It’s a sign of weakness. It’s an embarrassment to oneself. I am a full time driver now and I have reached that conclusion. I am on my way out. I hate Dara. I can’t even look at his face.
One time it wasn’t but it sure is now.
I tried for a bit too, but this gig is not feasible…dead app
9am on a saturday. Maybe by 930 945am it might oickup for those needing to be to work ar 10am.
10am to 2pm would probably be semi steady. But your market may be flooded with drivers.
I dont believe its ever often for 32 an hour for that long. I did a 30an hour today saturday for 6.5hours straight.
It is true you have to work the hours the MARKET needs you. So no it shouldnt. If there is no market we lyft and uber would tell you to go home. Like they do in every other employee.
Well, the vlog is not over stay tuned
Wow you are drinking toe kool-aid, what employee? Do you know how oversaturated the markets are, ive been around this block for 8 years, this is the slowest ive experienced
@sergioSMTMC1 it slow because of the number of drivers online. Theres hundreds near you. Its slow because of the amount of people who cant find other jobs but you can always lyft and uber. Thats a pitfall of a free and open market. But you want us to pay you a dedicated wage just to be online when theres not enough customers for everyone. You want a closed market that only allows the drivers to fill the market. That then gets to define when it needs or doesnt need you to drive. I prefer an open market and i moved to a market that could support me in these troubled times. I didnt go blaming the creators of a free and open market because they allow everyone in and theres too many of you online. But yes thats kool aid...

I agree on delivering food Surg it can be a pain in the ass especially in apartments. I don't have Uber eats cause Uber segragated deliverers from driving afew years back. I do Door dash sometimes.
The problem with this 2 companies is that they hire anybody with a bike they saturated the market now they give our trips to yellow cabs in NYC too and I heard now they want to hire illegal immigrants cause they can get license. The $32 that we make half is going to the executive salaries.
I had a Jersey Mikes Order that came into me @ $39.97 for 12 mi accept get to the store. They told me someone else picked it up so they probably stole it. they remade the order for me and I got within 3 miles of the customers house and the customer cancel I’ll get for base pay which ended up being $35. FTW.
And the food for free
Not really for free, the tax payers paid for the food because it was one of the typical delivery scams with a fraudulent customer or driver and it winds up going down as a loss in everyone’s ledger that ultimately circumvents tax code. So 400 million Americans each paid like a penny for his lunch. Funnier when you look at it like this, but also more alarming.
And then you will get a nasty message saying they detected fraudulent activity on your side.. meaning you stole the food.. threatening you to get deactivated.. it happened to me because a lousy person cancel her order and a I called uber support to ask them what do i do with the food tgey said keep it.. next morning their fuc.. nasty message
I ignore the $$$ as well. As it says, 'historical' data within the last 28 days. Drivers in my town seem to flock to them. I just drive away from them if they are near me. Those $$$ don't mean anything to me. I just started driving & use the Uber app to see where the other cars are as well. Figured that on my own before I started following this page. Common sense. But it's not bad, usually 8 cars out during the day (small town here) and about 3 cars around midnight & from 1am to 6am, usually just one car parked somewhere. Nothing is open from 1am on.
I started giving my # and driving private clients, it helps fill in the crap uber is giving me
18. Minutes 9$ is a no go for me.
Nope i signed up to drive people and that is all i want to do they can shove all that other crap where the sun doesn't shine im an independent contractor i want to do what i signed up for 80/20dplit driving people period
I wouldn’t have done either of those rides. There’s really no difference between the $3 ride and the $5 ride, actually I would say that the $3 ride is the better one if you’re using it to complete your quest otherwise they’re all trash. When I was doing DoorDash I hated having to hunt down people that were supposed to be hungry but were not actively waiting for their food.
ok, then you are not earning, can't cherry pick when there are no cherries, why are you out there? to sit in your car? what quest bro?
@@Therideshareguy I don’t sit in my car and I don’t sit at the airport. Luckily for me, I get good rides just sitting at home. Are you not aware of the quests? Do x amount of rides for x amount of money? I don’t do them anymore but there was a time I used to. Also you have to think that some of those rides don’t translate the same to other drivers based on their location. I earn money by taking good rides and by not wasting time on garbage. A bad ride will always prevent you from getting a good ride because you’re taking yourself off the board for trash. Sometimes you make money by not wasting money. This business is not about being busy, it’s about being profitable.

This 2 companies like playing sycology games when it only benefits them look now new years and we are averaging $14 $16 an hour or less now they don't pay $30 cause they have enough drivers on the streets.
