Re: Uber's ratings system.

Once you've had 500 ratings on Uber, it really does start to even out.
If you cop a low rating it will have little effect.
As mentioned don't worry about Uber ratings too much unless you get near a rating of around 4.6.
Remember, ratings don't actually pay your bills. 8-)

Where is the Uber Surge?

Peak hour in Melbourne and no signs of any Surge... far too many Uber Ants on the road these days.
Small surges appear then get squashed by the hungry ants....
I don't know how anyone can make a living working base rates stuck in peak hour traffic! :roll:

Re: Anyone signed up with Ola Cabs?

Ola launched in Perth last week! They have just started a "soft" launch in Sydney this week, and I believe in Melbourne sometime in April.

Re: If you need help with your Uber Income Tax, GST or BAS statements

Thanks for sharing this. It is a very straight-forward way for us Uber drivers to keep track of our Tax obligations.

Re: Ola Cabs rates in Perth

7.5% commission is very tempting as a rideshare driver.
I personally cannot wait until Ola launch here in Melbourne which should be before April 2018.

Re: Bingle VS RACV Rideshare insurance

I also have Comprehensive car insurance with Bingle as it covers ride share with unlimited km's.
It worked out a lot cheaper for me than any other insurance company.
Will have to wait and see how good or bad they are if I ever have to make a claim while driving for Uber!
