This is the the new Uber Nice road scam, faced the same issue and the Uber support was least interested in resolving it.

Even i faced the same issue. The suggested route was for 90 Km whereas the driver took the route for 47 Km. But ignoring the actual distance, UBER charged Rs. 1500/- for the trip. The same uber charged me in the past for 47KM around Rs. 750/-. Upon raising complaint, the pathetic customer support team kept sending me stereotype response that the fare charged is within the estimate hence the issue is resolved according to them. Tactfully they haven't maintained any customer support over call. I stopped using their service from then & i strongly recommend even others to use their service since they do not follow any tariff system for billing the actual distance & time traveled. They are so smart that they will charge if the estimate is higher than actual but they will not excuse you if your estimate was lower than actual. In the second case, they charge you higher because they are at losing end,
