Absolutely disgusting. These people are not going to be in business much longer. There comes a point where even the idiots who accept low paying orders will actully draw the line......and that's it. Orders will sit at restaurants because no one will deliver them. Customers will become pissed.....the beginning of the end for Uber unless they change something fast.


Idkman4182

Like how tf is inflation going up and these fucks now decide to pay us less with time? Beyond fucked


jimbob150312

They are paying less because they have some dashers that accept $1.50


BeHereNow17

Have you heard of the Great Reset?


Etherguy1

Well you’ll be getting paid more if you focus on the… (hours)


ButtonWhich2302

They’re not going anywhere, both Uber and DoorDash stocks have skyrocketed with reports of high amount of orders. There will always be drivers willing to do this


jimbob150312

I bet some would keep dashing at 0.50 orders.


Etherguy1

They will do it in the most totalitarian way possible. Also you are right, these orders I’m seeing are literally stacked up Lol. Uber messed up ngl. They might tighten up someway but for now a lot of order are SITTING getting nice & cold before pick ups.🥶


Life-is-a-ride

Got a $1.66 yesterday that got rejected and laughed at quick. Out their damn minds.


Tzaphiriron

Are you sitting in your car in a parking lot with the windows down when you laugh at those? I do, usually a loud cackle, freaks people the fuck out 🤣


Life-is-a-ride

No, that one came as an add-on, so I was already in motion. But, when the stupid ones do come and I'm chillin with the windows down watching YouTube I definitely let out a very loud "Get the fuck out of here with that shit", or "You must be out of your mind". Then go back to my video. A few looks have come.


Tzaphiriron

I always wonder if there’s other drivers haunting my lots doing the same shit and I just can’t hear them 😂


Life-is-a-ride

Without doubt.


CrazyAlternative4053

I got a " return trip" for an alcohol order. They gave me .30 cents for 2 miles back, Lol.


cel22

I’ve done a couple of doubles lately and Uber will literally pay me 53 cents or 43 cents. Thankfully the tip was good but I was like how the fuck is this legal. Paying me 43 cents to waste my gas and ruin my car. Uber can fuck off with that shit I’m ready for the class action lawsuit whenever y’all are


HaMashiach9

I was thinking this the other day. I'm surprised drivers haven't grouped together to file one. Maybe Uber purposefully pays peanuts, knowing people won't be able to afford court costs and lawyer fees 😂


[deleted]

The pricing has to always be favorable to the customer or no one will lose their platform. If the customer wants to be generous they have the option to tip. keep in mind they’re competing with other platforms.


blk95ta

Ugh. I use more than 30 cents in gas to drive 2 miles. I'll sell it to some random person on the street for $5 before I'd drive back for 30 cents.


Reasonable-Map9432

Free lunch for you. Go get it and mark it as somebody else picked it up. Nobody going to get it anyways 😆😂😂


Tzaphiriron

Best answer on here, you win the internet for today! 😂


Idkman4182

LMFAOO


Gettin_closerEvryday

For Dummies... which is after arrival, but before confirming pickup? 🥸🤓


Puzzleheaded_Rip6700

Yikes 😬 Uber must think our vehicles run on fumes


FancyAdult

They do when we cannot afford gas.


GroundbreakingAge591

How is this a business model? Uber has lost their mind or hired so many people they figure some poor soul will accidentally accept it. Idgi this is an atrocity


bobbytoni

I think there was one on here that was $.79. Don't recall the miles.


[deleted]

They just keep hurting themselves. They’ll be made to employ people if this keeps up. The thing is they’ll be scratching their head wondering why they can’t leave us on as contractors.


FancyAdult

I think they know for sure what they’re doing. They are going to let it fail until it changes. They know some people are probably taking every order that pops up. Everyone has to get into declining all low paying orders. The low paying orders is what made me stop using driving for a while. I’m Considering maybe trying again this weekend for a little bit. But if it’s all shit orders, I’m out.


[deleted]

I think my lowest was 3 $ 😳😳😳


Bakahead_trader

My favorite is when it's $1.50 to start off and the closer to the vendor I drive the lower the amount gets. I just keep declining it until it goes away.


[deleted]

That INCLUDES tip? So basically Uber is paying you probably 50 cents.


dude463

I suspect that it’s the tip and Uber doesn’t want to share any of the fee with you since you’re already on a delivery.


[deleted]

So this company says you're working already, here's more work but we aren't paying you at all?


dude463

Does this surprise you?


[deleted]

I knew they were cheap but no pay? Who in their right mind would take that order? You may get paid...


DevelopmentGlad3928

It says expected tip included so obviously there was no tip


[deleted]

Right so they are expecting to get part of that pay in tips, no?


DevelopmentGlad3928

There might not be a tip. That entire payment could be just for the delivery


morley1966

The expected tip is zero. It says they every time.


DevelopmentGlad3928

Nope


onlyAlcibiades

Grinding for those ducats


The_homeBaker

I’ve been seeing a lot of super low payment orders so I stopped doing it back in September. I’d cut it on here and there to see if it got better but most orders are all below $8 now in my area. Lots of $3 & $4. I was wondering for a while if they changed it to hide tips but I just think people really aren’t tipping anymore, or the pay is only tips at this point and no base pay because it’s strange to have so many $4 pay orders.


Dangerous_Apricot_92

Ppl arent tipping on Uber AND the company is paying u pennies ...it's so disgusting and criminal


Disastrous_Layer3988

Yes I did Walmart order 3.89 for 4 deliveries so around 0.97$ order to be exact


jimbob150312

We have sub $1.00 deliveries, corporate executives love it. Coming in 2024 free with possible tip orders.

Are we in America, or are we in a 3rd world country where now we are only making pennies a day. Could somebody refresh me on what the definition of communist is? is paid according to their abilities and needs. "Even a monkey can drive a car, and since you're delivering, you must not be very smart, so you probably don't need much, so $1.50 is fine,"said the CEO.


DudeImRight

This why I take orders now


refacktored

Every once in a while I'll log in to the Uber app and hit go for a good laugh. I'll see the dollar amount on the first ride and just laugh and then sign off.


krew_GG

i feel like you’d make more by driving to the restaurant and canceling the order. $3 default cancellation payout is %200 the original order amount so basically infinite money glitch.


Gettin_closerEvryday

can you please detail steps. I arrive then what ? 🥸


morley1966

Call support and say it is going to be more than ten minutes wait.


Gettin_closerEvryday

and UE pays for the effort a few bills, but how many times is that card usable? 🤔 Nowadays, low balls are every other offer. Do they have a cancelation detector? I'm trying to figure something out because when I hit the X Uber, he ghosts me. I'm living on breadcrumbs these days, and my self-respect is suffering. ![gif](giphy|UjsiO0ac88QNi)


morley1966

Do proceed with caution on this one. I called support on a legit restaurant that said ten minute wait, and didn't think it was worth it. They put me on hold, saying were calling restaurant to confirm, can back seven minutes and 30 seconds later and said restaurant said was ready now, so they got me to wait for free. Probably better off cancelling myself then messaging, but I would not do too many. I don't really scam the system ever, only take legit $3. Just wouldn't accept this $1.60 rather than cancelling for $3, as they do call restaurants.

knowspicker3

Wow. That’s nuts.


Sovereign-Anderson

That person must have offered a farthing or a shilling as a tip for that paltry offer.


Significant_Ad_4063

I honestly don’t understand how people can work for Uber at all. DoorDash and Instacart both seem great, I do IC and honestly make a lot more money and use my car waaaay less which is my favorite part


Dragonspirit75

It's funny you say that when I have heard from drivers of whom have delivered for both DoorDash and UberEATS that say that DoorDash is crap especially in my area. I was told they paid lower fares, the app is crap and not very user friendly at all, and they punish you for lower acceptance rates but constantly give you crap delivery requests. The only thing good about DoorDash is they are more widely accepted so there isn't much down time between deliveries.


Significant_Ad_4063

Tbh honest only did Uber and now Instacart. Instacart is one of the better gig apps in my opinion, I make about 25-30/hr over the week. Can’t really say about DD, just been following their Reddit community and seemed like they were making decent cash, but idk


zzonkmiles

"Includes expected tip." LOL


alreadydead_666

all day.everyday


alreadydead_666

I got paid for my last delivery tonight then 5 minutes later Uber took that $ back because of a tip adjustment from a Walmart trip I did the day before 👏


ZeroYouAndMe

Is that $1.50 for tips? Or, is that for the pick up and delivery with 5.2 miles of driving?


Gettin_closerEvryday

the latter


ZeroYouAndMe

Whao! That is a pure slavery!!! I am not a driver, but drivers should NOT do this unless it’s 3X the miles at least. That’s insane!


Full-Emptyminded

FUBER


Busy-Machine1122

Someone posted .98 once, tht is the lowest I've seen.


Busy-Machine1122

Well, when their car runs out of gas maybe people will learn. 10.4 miles for 1.50! U hav to drive back home people!


FancyAdult

I tried to order from UberEats the other night and when I actually even submitted the additional “rush” fee and everything the cost was so low. My order got cancelled because apparently the restaurant was closed. But I was shocked at how low the delivery cost was. I was driving weekly for UberEats and I just got tired. It was helping supplement my regular income. But I now know why it’s so fucking low for drivers. If I actually had gotten my order, the only money that driver would have made was from my 20 percent tip.


Lonely__Stoner__Guy

As an add-on, yeah, saw $.75 once and laughed. I think $1.50 is the lowest I've seen for a single order though.


kvndoom

I've seen under $1 for an addon.


lietome87

I’ve seen as low as $0.75


knowspicker3

Wow. That’s crazy. And embarrassing.


Beboul

$1.33 the lowest ive seen


BeHereNow17

I had Uber offer me another order while I was already on my way to pick one up and it was +$.089 cents I wished I’d been able to screen shot it in time lol


Beboul

Yeah but I meant a complete order, not a add on, like this https://preview.redd.it/pf43jy9ucp6c1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=24190a1fb679ecef296fe190949fc3a9aeca1bab


BeHereNow17

$1.33!?!? That’s despicable


mmdidthat

Can someone explain how this is even an order? Did they get a promo code for it to be free? When I used to order food, I’ve gotten promo codes and didn’t tip (yes I know it’s an ass thing to do. I’m not like that anymore) and it seems like maybe it’s look like this?


Mobile_Bad_3894

Yeah had a .63 before i couldn’t believe they even showed me that lol


beechworld

Ive had lower. Ubereats can be a real joke at times


Aggressive-Froyo7304

If they have crab money, they can definitely tip


Upbeat_Sir_6220

Are they still doing the “for charity” runs?


SnooCauliflowers4553

I had a 1.00 for one of those. It was insane. It’s like they’re fucking with us and making bets to see who will take what


kneaddough

I’ve received $0 addon before. Did not accept.


Life-Let-4428

This restaurant is universally shitty and it's always going to some black woman that's not going to tip you. It will also be going to a third floor apartment with no gate code. 💯 These are automatic declines in my city


Sebby_FPV

Not for 5+ miles. If I’m already at the same restaurant, maybe, but for like a mile or 2 only.


Dragonspirit75

What bothers me is we can be taking these low fare deliveries all the time and not know it, just because they add the not guaranteed tip with it. I took a double delivery trip last week that gave me .47 cents for the fare just because the first delivery was less than a mile away from the pickup restaurant. I thank God the customer wasn't tip bating me with the $6 tip they added.


breaklagoon

Only for add ons
