Grab/Ryde issues and charges

[13177]

I keep hearing feedback from friends now that Uber can be more expensive than cab during the peak hours. Uber now doesn't show the surge charges.

The pricing show already included the surcharge liao, so if you have been taking uber or taxi regularly, more or less you should know if the pricing is expensive or not. Lol.

I only stop using Uber since November.  I still get surge factor like x 1.5. 

 

Uber can be cheaper than cab during peak especially from CBD.  Not forgetting that cab got SMLJ surcharge le.

It is a willing buyer willing seller.  She can always wait for the rain to stop and call cab.

 

On rainy morning, can she get a cab?

 

If can't, don't KPKB.

 

$$$ is a good motivator for ppl to work.

read a news today that Uber can afford to rent 55000 sq ft space in Tanjong Pagar, show that they are quite confident.

Exactly the same concept as some people struggling with monthly insalment for their affluent car, to look good to others.

My office gal said she paid 40plus all in from jurong West to tuas for normal cab. User only 25. Morning peak.

I don't know about how expensive they are... but Uber as a company (around the world) and how they disregard rules, regulations, etc... is starting to bug me...

 

Their views on minimum pay

 

their stupid app now requiring me to accept location service even after I quit the app,

 

their fcked up attitude to autonomous driving legislation... they refuse to buy a 150$ license because that will also require them to keep records of any incidents... so they gave the finger to Cali municipality and said they don't believe they need to adhere to that license.

 

They do things even to the detriment of safety... where one of their autonomous cars ran through a red light and they said... "my bad"...

 

and some of the newer kids driving for Uber here in SG haven't filled me with great confidence.

 

Not to say that Grab is better... but I'd rather my dollars goes to a "local / SE Asian" company than some fcking yanks and lawyers in California.

 

So Uber app deleted from phone.

Do swee swee so that more people will invest into the company.

Did she get a receipt?

It's less than S$ 40 from the airport to Clementi.

actually.. uber concept is brilliant.. 

 

think abt it.. which gahmen dare to stop them when its giving people employment?

 

They are losing money.. but as a consequence.. they built up a highly penetrative customer list... 

 

why do u think facebook, alibaba etc are valued so high? 

 

Uber is juz waiting for a right buyer...

i see it as a musical chair game....

 

for the passengers, enjoy the music while it last....

 

for dedicated uber drivers and staff, enjoy the game and reap the maximum income while it last

 

for the investors, build up the hype and exit before the music suddenly stops

 

for the owners.....they are the only ones who know when they going to stop the music.
