Uber India Complaints & Reviews

Sir,
Yesterday while i was traveling by a uber cab one of my bag containing books and documents left in the car. When i called the driver he refuses to come over thereto return the bag. And he gave me an address to collect the bag in exchange of 1000 rupees. I went there and collect the bag by giving him the mentioned amount. As a student its so hard manage such a big amount. Please help me in this regard to get the money back. I am mentioning the details of the car below.

We have put in 5 cars with uber. (Jjremy associates). One of our drivers dhan pradhan with the above ids was driving one f our cars till two weeks back. He left us and is driving with someone else.
When he left us, he owed us rs.6700 which he has not paid so far, giving a number of excuses. He last promised payment on saturday but avoided our calls and now has come out with more excuses.
All our efforts at contacting him and persuading him to pay the money have failed.
We therefore request you to assist us in recovering the amount he owes us.

Your driver forcefully cancelled my ride when i told him about my destination. It costs me 42rs extra fair and also delayed my urgent meeting with client.
I am your regular customer but never faced this kind of inconvience. He asked me to cancel ride without ant reason. Please take immediate action and compensate me for extra charges. Enclosing the name and number of that driver in the below section.
Name of driver - amandeep
Vehicle no. - pb01a6054

I booked a uber cab from hyderabad airport to gachibowli.. The estimated amount showed rs.683+. I was asked to pay rs.200 in cash for the parking fee by the driver. I declined and said that it was included in the fare but the driver demanded that i pay.. As i was to attend a meeting urgently, i paid in cash and though uber support will help me for refund. I paid via paytm in full. I also lodged a complaint with uber support but no one understood. They reply to the mail to support the driver and finally say the issue is resolved!!!. They are aware of the bill. The breakdown indicated. The bill clearly shows that the parking fee is included. Inspite of my evidences shown, i was denied refund.in other cab services we have a phone number to speak to a support staff who will immediately guide us but in uber you have to send an email seeking support. My most loved cab services but this incident made me feel insulted!! Take care while you book uber nect time and also check for parking fee. Good luck to all who believed customer support o[censored]ber!!

Following is the conversation. Core issue that why 17 kms calculated while is not resolved. The distance was much smaller than that.

Conversation thread for reference.

Hi shilpa,

Thanks for reaching out and i'll be happy to clarify.

When you request an uber, the price displayed in the app at the beginning of the trip is the fare you'll be charged for the ride. These fares are calculated dynamically, based on your pickup and drop off locations.

The calculation includes time, distance, local conditions (Traffic, road blocks) and historical data in their city. Please note that your upfront price includes any applicable dynamic pricing in effect when demand is high.

To know more about the circumstances under which your final fare may differ from the fare shown upfront, click here

As per the terms of promotion, uberpass flat fare of inr 149.00 of[censored]nder 15 kms.

In this case however, since trip taken was more than 15 kms, unfortunately, i will not be able to retroactively apply this promotion to the trip.

Hope this helps to clarify.

Apologies for the confusion around the requested promotion uberpass 149.

As per the terms of promotion, you will be charged inr 149 for travelling upto 15km.

In this case, however, since your trip 17.15km, unfortunately, i will not be able to retroactively apply this promotion to the trip.

Hope this helps to clarify.

Promo code: uberpass

Value: 149

Share additional details: uberpass was supposed to be of 149/-. It was of higher value. Also rather than just through system you need to provide personal assistance by providing customer care number

Uber mumbai driver didn't come at the pick up point, had to cross the road n go to his car (Santacruz west sv road to ghatkopar station)

Drop up point was ghatkopar station but refused to drop near the destination, but forced him to drop there only.
Before getting down started abusive words in hindi.
During the ride the driver opened his door n was spitting, which is highly unprofessional n unhygienic. Felt disgusting.

Such a horrible experience for the first time

1) i got a mail from uber

Hi pranavanand,
Sorry to hear about this experience.

I understand that you were unable to avail of the promotional benefit on this trip. I'll be happy to look into the issue for you!

I have reviewed your account and i see that your account is not eligible for this promotion. This is the reason the discount did not apply on your trip. Unfortunately, i will not be able to manually apply this promotion to your account.

We request your kind understanding in this regard.
Keep riding with uber.

7. They are silent on my specific request as to whether
(A) whether uber has sent the mail or not. (B) whether the sms was sent by uber or not.

8. Again and again they are sending same replies.
9. Their reply to my last mail so disgusting and they are not helping in reaching them that i can escalate the issue further.

It is unfortunate — again and again you are giving same reply. I once again request you to please give specific point wise reply. First you have asked me furnish the screenshot / the mail. I had provided the copy of the mail i received from uber. You are conveniently and purposefully avoiding my straight queries. Pl give reply and clarify the two questions i already posed. I am repeating for the purpose of clarity. (A) whether uber has sent the mail or not. (B) whether the sms was sent by uber or not further, it is not understood as to why at the first place you wanted the screenshot / copy of the mail when you do not want to consider the same. Now you are coolly saying that my account was reviewed and i am not eligible for the promo. You could have reviewed my account (Without asking further details) on your own. Further more, it is not fair to say that the issue is resolved. How can you resolve any issue without consulting / satisfying the effected party. Unfair practice. I would like to escalate this issue further. I would be very happy if you could provide the contact details of the senior level management. Thanks and anticipating a reasoned i repeat reasoned reply. Time is very precious. Let us (Both o[censored]s) not waste. Detailed / reasoned reply is solicited. Regards

I am very sorry to say that your approach is just callous.

I once again say sorry to use the word callous. You are forcing me to use such words

The replies are so disgusting. Again and again without reading my mail you are sending the same reply

Pl read my mail and give reply.

12. Is it not unethical behaviour. They are not reading mails.

I took a ride on 10th august 2017 at about 10:04 am from bidhan nagar station to saltlake fc block. While the driver was picking me the traffic police charged a traffic case and the driver paid 100 rupees for this case. After that he stared he cab and called his owner and gave me the phone. The cab owner told me to pay additional 100 rupees to the driver. I had rufused to pay then he told the driver to cancel the trip. The driver took oposite route of my destination and cancel the trip almost middle of a fly over and told me to leave the cab.

I jitendra sarang senior citizen had booked uber today for first time to kokilaben hospital. The uber didnt arrive nor did driver respond hence i had to travek by auto. Further i got msg from uber service (Thank tou for tour ride) when i didnt travel hiw can i get such messge also i send request for cancellation. If i am charged for today for no services offered i refuse to pay for this. Kindly consider this cancellation and hope to get beter services next time from you.

I missed to take my mobile set lenovo zuk z1 from uber cab which was connected to charging cord and kept between the 2 front seats near the gear handle. I started my journey from andrewa ganj, south extension, new delhi around 6 pm on 8/09/17 and ended at anand vihar isbt around 7:00 pm.

My uber id is registered with number [protected]

On contacting one of the customer support number o[censored]ber from my friend number, their representative were not able to support me at all and in fact when i asked to let me talk to their supervisor she just denied.

Post that i kept calling on my mobile set till 10 pm from numerous of my friends but it went on switched off. Since driver and cab details were in that mobile which i can't access other than the mobile set, hence i am not able to contact driver.

I booked a cab today morning and based on the drop and pickup location estimate the fare was rs.384 (This included surge as the regular fare for this trip is rs. 220).
On completing the trip i was charged rs.470, on inquiring i was told that there was a wait time of 1.83 minutes. So effectively you charged me rs. 100 for 2 minutes of wait i. E. 25% inc.in fare.
Now as no change in pickup location, drop location nor did we encounter any out of the ordinary traffic, if anything the time taken was less than my usual time.

You charged me rs 42 for trip cancelled at 1.00 pm today.
I have not canceled the trip. Your driver canceled the trip. I gave pick up point as daliraju super mkt. When the driver called me, i asked him to take the opposite lane to the super market. He started abusing and said you are mental and gave wrong destination. To avoid this confusion, i started walking towards daliraju super market. The driver met me half way. When i was about to sit in the car, he asked me not to sit and canceled the trip. When i told him iam going to complain, he challenged me to complain to whomsoever i want and went away. Best part is you penalized me for that arrogant, rude behaviour of the driver. If you hire this type of drivers, i am afraid i can not continue hiring uber. There are many options. I am a regular customer o[censored]ber. I need an apology and return the amount charged for no fault of mine. The story didn`t end there.
I booked uber again. You allotted the same driver. He stopped the car on the other side of the road. I was standing on the left side in the direction we should go for my destination. He asked me to cross the road and come to the opposite side. There is no point going there. He has to take u turn and come this side. He refused to come and cancelled and go.
This is beyond my tolerance. I want to hear from you what action you are going to take against the driver.

On trip for goregaon west to kalyan on 09th september afternoon, i selected non cash but card was not charged at that time and hence i paid in cash. But today 11th septemebr. When again i tried to book a cab to vikroli from kalyan, they charged my card for the same amount of inr778.26 and i thought this is for my today's trip. And now when i asking a refund and fighting with them on email, they are just saying no for this. They will not give me any refund, this is what they are saying.
How do we connect to their country head on this.

Booked a cab on 8th sep'[protected]@ 01:59pm but the driver could not reach me till 02:33pm. When booked the app showed in 10 min uber will reach me. After a long wait i tried to contact the driver (As he did not) & he told me, he was waiting for me near & coming in a short while. But could not reach as well. Finally after wasting half an hour for this driver i cancelled the trip. Missed my train due to such an unprofessional service.

I booked a cab from sector 17, chandigarh to sector 12-apanchkula. Driver picked me up and started the trip. He was listening to some punjabi audio and put it at high volume. I requested him to lower the volume. He showed he was lowering but the volume was same. I put on my ear phones.. But the volume was too high that i cant even listen through my earphones. I again requested him to lower the volume. On this he misbehaved with me and arrogantly asked med that the volume will be like this only and he will not take me to my destination. I asked him to drop to my destination but he dropped me in the mid of a busy road which was unsafe. I encountered a lot of trouble in booking another cab from there and i got considerably late to reach home. Instead he was asking me money for the trip by that time, even when mode of payment was selected from debit card. He challenged me to put his complaint and behaved and talked very rudely. Such behaviour is highly unacceptable.
I lodged complaint on uber app twice but a week has passed no body contacted me from uber. I want strict action to be taken against the driver and uber team to contact me.

I had ordered ubergo yesterday. The driver was someone imtiyaz having maruti ritz.
The car no is now not showing in my trip detail. He didn't come to pickup and when i was calling him, he did not even pick up the call and then switched off his mobile.
His mobile no was [protected].
For this i was charged cancellation fee which was later refunded after i paid the same.
I had to waste my time for this # and unprofessional driver.
Kindly look into it and take action against the driver.

I booked an Uber today i.e Sunday(10.09.2017) from Egipura to Bangalore fort around 1:30pm. Inspite of waiting at the pickup location for 15mins, no car came. When I called the driver he told that he was waiting at the said pickup point.But no car was waiting there. Then all of a sudden I received a cancellation text and found that I was charged an additional 52.50 rupees. After this when I called the driver regarding this he said the he had waited at the pickup point for 10mins.During this conversation he mostly used slangs and talked in a very unprofessional manner. I have been a loyal customer at Uber and don't expect this kind of behaviour from a driver.
The car I booked was a Ford Fiesta. The driver's name was Majeed and the contact number is 91-[protected].
I am asking for a refund of this cancellation fees in my account. I have been using Uber since a long time, but never faced this kind of behaviour from a driver. If it was my fault then I would not have written this complaint letter. I am really shocked by this. So i am requesting a refund.

Hello,
I took your ride on 10th September 2017 from Panvel to Chembur. It was my first ride in Uber.
I contacted driver to guide but he asked my destination and after the call was over he cancelled the ride in sometime. Now the app is showing I have to make payment of Rs47 and unable to book another ride. The drivers name was Rajesh and car was Wagon R 0784.
Thanks,
