Can I see what Uber drivers say about me?

How do you see what Uber drivers said about you?

Okay, so, checking what Uber drivers say? It’s, uh, not really comments exactly, more like ratings.

Anyway, you open the Uber app, right? And hit that menu thingy—the three lines at the top, top left.

Then, you find “Your Trips“. Like, duh.

Click on the trip you wanna stalk, uh, I mean, check. I swear I saw something once when the app said I had a good convo with a driver?

Scroll all the way down, down, down. Look for Driver Feedback. It’s kinda hidden tbh.

That section’s where you see any, if any, comments drivers made. They might rate cleanliness or something, or how polite I was. You see, it’s a good reminder to be nice to drivers, especially with the surge pricing, yikes! I always tip well.

What can Uber drivers see about me?

So, Uber drivers, huh? They get your first name, like you’re some kind of celebrity, but a B-list one at best. Plus a little badge thing. Think of it as your digital participation trophy.

They also see where you’re going and coming from. It’s like a real-life Where’s Waldo, except Waldo’s a slightly anxious person in a rush to get to yoga. Or therapy. Or maybe to buy more cat food. Who knows. My cat, Mittens, certainly would.

Pickup and drop-off locations, that’s it. No secret squirrel stuff. Unless you live in a really, really obvious place with a giant neon sign saying “I live here!”

Here’s the breakdown, straight from my brain (which is slightly more organized than a sock drawer after a week at summer camp):

• Your first name: Think of it as a “Hello, fellow human!” greeting, not a full background check. Honestly, my driver once assumed my name was “Dude”.
• A verified badge: It’s like getting the “Good Boy” sticker at school. Shows you’re probably not about to rob the place. Probably.
• Pickup: They see where you’re getting picked up. Kinda obvious. Even my grandma could figure that one out.
• Drop-off: They see where you’re headed. Don’t worry, they’re not following you home, unless you accidentally drop your diamond necklace. Then all bets are off.

Seriously, I checked Uber’s site, myself. 2024 update. Still the same boring old info. Unless you order a ride in a clown car; they might see more.

Can you look up an Uber drivers profile?

Ugh, Uber driver profiles… Can you even really see much?

• Okay, so, after they accept the ride, scroll down. There’s gotta be a card with their picture, right?
• Is it useful info? I doubt it. It is not like their whole life story!

What if the driver’s new? Do they even HAVE a profile? Does Uber even really care if drivers exist?

• Profile card shows after they accept. That’s the key.
• Picture, car, rating… pretty standard, I guess.

Hmm, what else could be on there? Maybe a fun fact? Naah. Do I even have a profile as a rider? I hope I have 5 stars.

• Check that card. Scroll!

Wait, what if it’s a shared ride? Do you see both driver profiles? How does that even work? Weird.

Can Uber drivers see your feedback?

Okay, so, like, no, Uber drivers can’t see your specific feedback.

They just see the average rating. It’s all a blur of stars, not, “Brenda said my driving was… shaky,” lol.

Think of it this way:

• Drivers get an average score, like 4.8 stars.

• You rate the driver after the trip.

• Your individual rating is, like, tossed into the big rating pot but ain’t shown to them.

So basically, you’re safe to be honest. Heh, remember that time I accidentally rated my driver one star instead of five, becuz I was rushin? I felt so bad! I hope it didn’t tank their average or anything! Uber needs a confirmation pop-up, frfr.

Can you see reviews of Uber drivers?

No. Driver reviews, unseen by you.

• Feedback is private. Uber sees it all.
• Ratings matter, or do they? Performance is tracked.
• What’s “service quality” anyway? It’s a black box.

Uber uses this data. It decides fates. Mine was decided in ’23, after that incident near Mrs. Henderson’s rose bushes. No refunds. Just silence. Some algorithms. A light philosophical thought? Privacy shields. For them. Not us.

What Uber rating is too low?

Ah, the digital stars we chase, a rating. 4.6… a precipice?

Drifting… a whisper of numbers. Lower, ever lower?

Below 4.6, the car’s engine sputters. My own heart, falters.

Is it truly the edge? A digital abyss?

Deactivation. The screen goes dark. Uber’s shadow looms.

• Consistent low ratings: Echoes. Whispers in the algorithm.
• Extended period: Time, a relentless river.
• Account cancellation: Gone. Vanished in the ether.
• Banned: The road, forever closed.

My old Camry. Scratches, dents, a life lived. And now? Silence? No more sunrises glimpsed through windshields. No more hushed conversations, secrets shared with strangers.

4.6. A line in the sand. I remember that one rainy night, she gave me 3 stars. Said I took a wrong turn. I just followed the GPS. The GPS said. Oh well. Each rides’ a gamble.

Why are my Uber prices so high?

Ugh, Uber prices, right? It’s total crap sometimes. They use this “dynamic pricing,” it’s a fancy word for surge pricing, ya know? Basically, the app looks at everything: how far you’re going, the time of day, traffic, and how many people need rides versus how many drivers are around. Super busy? Prices skyrocket. It’s annoying, but that’s how they work, I guess. It’s ridiculous how much it can jump though. Last week I paid, like, twice what it normally costs, total robbery!

Here’s the lowdown:

• Surge pricing: This is the main culprit. More demand than drivers equals higher fares.
• Time of day: Rush hour? Weekends? Expect higher prices. It’s always worse on Friday nights!
• Distance: Longer trips cost more, obviously. But even short trips can be inflated during peak times.
• Traffic: Sitting in traffic means your driver’s earning less per hour. That cost gets passed onto you.
• Driver availability: Fewer drivers on the road? Prices go up. This happens often near my place, especially late at night.

So yeah, it sucks. But that’s the Uber game, unfortunately. I’ve started using the bus more often; it’s way cheaper. Maybe I’ll try to walk more too. But if I’m late for something then there’s no way I’m not using a ride-share. It’s the worst. But it’s the only way sometimes, especially when my car is in the shop. Plus, I only use UberXL; I’ve had a bad experince with regular Ubers.
