driver pay

I've spoken to several drivers and it seems that since Lyft stopped paying any surge here, drivers just won't turn on the app. I would love to hear thoughts about why people are still doing both, as it seems Uber is paying/treating drivers much better here.

Thought this was a good one

Lyft/Uber IPO Cash for drivers

guys, it is possible. You need to work the busiest times, 7am-9am and 5pm-10pm, late nights friday and saturday. but you can make $500/week without doing 12 hour shifts. ive done it myself, before i quit.

I'm sure y'all ha e been following this back and forth with Uber and MIT after a working group at the University posted a study that stated Uber/Lyft drivers average $3.31/hour. After vehement denials and attacks by various Uber Execs the MIT Professor in charge agreed to use the data that Uber...

On average I make between $10-12 per trip when I factor in promotions. It’s pretty consistent with Uber and Lyft. I was wondering were everyone else’s results similar.

RideWithVIA is in NYC, DC and Chicago. Supposedly, like uberPOOL with better driver pay and without the problems that Uber and Lyft introduced when they stole the idea. Has anybody driven for RideWithVIA? What did you think? Would you recommend it to other drivers or not? Is it better, worse or...

UPDATED information here. _______ You may already know that Uber increased their Booking Fee nationwide on July 8, 2017. Drivers do not get any piece of the booking fee. :mad: This was the 3rd increase in 2017. Not all locations received the same increase. NY State outside of NYC was opened up...

Uber appears to be rolling out the 3rd booking fee increase this year, with a corresponding minimum fare increase. I expect Lyft to match the Uber Booking Fee increase soon. It's 40 cents for XL and 50 cents for XL and premium. For UberX: In February, from $1.30 to $1.65 then $1.65 to $1.80 Now...

Just curious if xl and select drivers have noticed a "larger" service fee, than the 28-30% uber used to collect. Wondering if it's just the poo and x passengers that are paying more to uber after the new driver admendment?

Do you think Uber, Lyft and the others do a good job in reducing the amount of unloaded miles driven by each driver in a work day?

Today, Uber has a far larger market share that Lyft. Lyft has recently been making significant progress increasing its market share primarily because of Uber's seemingly endless negative publicity. However, that has obvious limits and may end anytime that Uber chooses to alter key policies and...
