Yep the surge is based on supply & demand. Uber have recently done a price increase at peak times and along with that they have also tweaked the surge yes it still happens but it’s no longer as volatile or as high.Quote:

Honestly mate you’re like an advert for Uber on here. You defend everything and make a positive argument whenever possible. If there wasn’t an issue with Uber this thread wouldn’t still be on the front page of this forum. I’m a black cab driver and I will and frequently do point out issues with our trade, but you refuse point blank to recognise the problems Uber has. To be credible you need to be objective.Quote:

If you want an objective discussion you need to have correct information and I consider people to be much more credible if they know what they are talking about rather than simply parroting myths heard from other cabbiesQuote:

Uber Drivers are on the whole the same as taxi drivers, working class people just trying to earn a living.
