On Android, you go into the app, then tap the hamburger menu on the top left. It should be under your name next to a star.

I'm at 4.56. I was at 4.97 before that but eventually I got even lower. It was for taking a bunch of short rides to and from work in a hard-to-find area with lots of construction and heavy traffic. ah well, fuck em.

There's some incentive to get a higher rating because you can apparently get booted off Uber if your rating is below a certain threshold. That, and Uber drivers can see what your rating is as a rider before they agree to service you so they may prioritize higher rated drivers than lower rated ones.

I think customers in many places should have a rating system for them. Years ago when I worked in a customer facing role, I would have enjoyed the ability to shower some of them with awful ratings.

They do, I lurked an Uber driver forums once. They rate badly off of:

- No tip,

- Bad tip,

- Not tipping in cash, swear to God. This one dude mentioned how most people who don't tip in cash won't tip through the app, so rather than wait and see if he eventually gets the tip, he just says fuck them and rates them bad soon as they get out the car,

- Them seeing you get off of a bus or train, because there was a change that the thing could be late and you would've made them wait. One driver says when he sees them approach his car, he drives off and cancels the ride, refuses to be a part of their perfect plan,

- Bringing shopping bags to their car. Apparently this is a pet peeve of drivers and they will drive off and cancel the ride if they see someone approaching with shopping bags.

And I didn't see this on the forum, but I lost my 5-star rating by sitting in the front seat. Backseat was taken so I got in the front, did not realize there was another row of seats after that first row. That was the day I stopped tipping because I gave that fucker a $5, cash tip.


Yeah, I frequent Uberdrivers on Reddit and there are so many whiny entitled bitches on there.

As a driver, the only way you're not getting five stars from me is if you puke, you're a major asshole, or you do something to put me in danger.

Almost 300 rides in and I've never given below five stars.

Can you see whether people tip? Those types say they can, but Uber said they can't at some point.

4.84 and the two drivers who gave me below five were probably the ones I reported to Uber.

One had a messy car and I asked if they had a napkin to wipe off whatever the sticky substance was on the dashboard in front of me

The other was an old guy who started being extremely prying into me being trans and made me beyond uncomfortable

Only other ones I might have had an issue were the ones I made wait because I had to direct them through my apartment complex over the phone

I'm at 5.0

I literally never use Uber except when on business. So I always tip well because hell if I care, my company is paying for it.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

I'm confused here...what perfect plan? I mean I get that a bus or train could be late, but if they are already approaching your car, why not just take the ride that's literally right there for you? I don't see how this makes sense.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

I find this to be the case with most people that complain about most any service, especially at restaurants.

The app gives you a notification when you get a tip. If you tap the notification it'll show you which trip it was from.

I got a tip yesterday from a ride two weeks ago lol
