Uber in Seattle is... well, it's what you use because there aren't really any other options. Taxis? Practically extinct. Hailing one here feels like waiting for a unicorn to trot down Pike Street. So, Uber it is. The service itself is hit-or-miss. Sometimes you get a clean car, a driver who actually knows the city, and a smooth ride. Other times you're stuck on a scenic "Seattle detour" that's just code for "the GPS lost its mind in SoDo." Traffic is brutal no matter what, so don't expect miracles--whether you're in an Uber or your own car, you'll be staring at brake lights. Pricing swings with the mood of the city. Surge pricing during a Mariners game or when it rains (so, basically every other day)? Expect your wallet to feel lighter. But compared to the ghost town of taxis, Uber at least shows up when you need it, which is really the only reason it wins by default. Uber in Seattle isn't glamorous. It's not particularly cheap, and it's not always smooth. But it exists, it functions, and it gets you where you need to go--eventually. And in a city where taxis are a relic of the past, that's about as good as it gets. read more

Last December, it cost $35.00 from Vegas airport to Chinatown. Last month, it was $75.00. It was both around 11 am on weekday. I asked the driver how much he's paid for the trip and he said $19.00. This is nuts! The driver was courteous and great. uber is gouging! read more

I have used Uber one time and it wasn't an honest experience because the driver tried to rip me off in South America. Last night all I was doing was looking up the rates to go from point A to point B. Next thing I get a phone call from Uber which I ignored and than I find I am charged for a cancellation fee for a trip I Did not book or confirm. Never will I use Uber again. The website does not give any information as to how to explain the horrible situation. I think the drivers are looking at the interest and than scam you. No customer service. I will report to BBB and also my credit card company. read more

Getting off cruise ship. I am disabled so can't walk very fast. Driver arrived and told us his location. I texted back and said we were on the way. Apparently I couldn't walk there fast enough so the driver cancelled the trip and I was charged almost $9 for the cancellation!! Tried to complain but they gave me "vouchers" That I will never use. Fairly sure driver picked up another fare and also the cancellation fee! Horrible service and not disabled friendly. Do NOT accept a ride from this driver in Seattle! read more

Very poor, price gouging, 10 mile ride one way was close to $4.00 per mile, grant if it were only a mile or two, they have a minimum. My friend had no choice at the time but I was surprised at the price for a short ride. I'll make sure my friend doesn't use Juan's CHM1220 uber service again. I suppose I'll try a different service next time or I'll look up the service for my friend next time and find out about prices. I seen prices for that distance starting at $11 up to $17, $25 max for the elite service. Next time, I'll be checking on prices for my friends and just schedule from my pc. read more

Everything. If you have a problem with anything. Forget it, there is zero customer service. Drivers can take you for a ride to increase their fare and you have no recourse. I have some UBER cash on my account. Once that is used, will never use them again. Riders beware. read more

Uber in Strasbourg France is NO GOOD Setting up a 4 minute pick up turns into 10-12 minutes. Location for pick up was not accurate to our hotel. Driver shown at 1.3 miles and 6 minutes away changed to over 15 minutes. Terrible experience. read more

Most unreliable card ride service.There is I have been late to work three times this week due to them.Cancelling my my ride last minute, then waiting an hour.For them to find somebody else, even though they said they already had a driver to pick me up in the first place. Would do zero stars, but one is the lowest.You can go read more

Just for heck of it. They said mine was fraud id pic. Anyways 8 years not going to change up and do this. They know it and common sense knows it. But its their platform if drive for Uber know and understand can fire you anytime. read more

Been a customer for years. Ordered a meal tonight and it was totally inedible. Went to chat to get a partial refund even though the whole order was inedible. I ordered a yakisoba bowl, no sauce. Cold, tasted moldy, noodles stuck together in huge crumbs, 5 piece of miniscule veggies. BBQ pork had watery taste, like it was rehydrated. Chat would not resolve a partial refund. The order was $26, I asked for $13 refund, no credit as after my treatment (I have screen snapshots) I will not do business with them again. Support hung up 2 times on chat with me. I will go to my bank and dispute the entire charge since this company does not care if it keeps customers. read more

Just knocked me and my son off the app for no reason. Went to Lyft instead. You can't get a real person on the phone.

I used Ubereats a few years ago and after they ripped me off terribly I didn't use them for ages. Then for whatever dumb reason I started again. In no time at all one of their drivers failed to deliver a large hundred-dollar order, and Uber's help line (an obvious AI) was set up, it sounded like, to do one thing only: Deny refunds on services not received. For some reason (knock wood) this hasn't happed with Doordash; so fortunately I can never deal with a rather crooked Uber ever again but still get the delivery service elsewhere when I need it. I was happy to see Ubereats is under investigation for lawbreaking in Seattle! read more

A couple years ago I actually called a Bellevue taxi company and said I needed a ride to North Bend which is 24 miles away. They flat out told me, no. I downloaded the Uber app and told them where I needed to go. They sent a driver in 10 minutes. I got to North Bend and will always appreciate Uber for stepping up. Bellevue taxis suck. read more

I have used Uber for years. However, a recent ride cancelled by the driver, Crystal in hot Springs Arkansas has driven me away. We set up a morning uber to take us to the horse races. We called the driver when we were past the time being picked up. Right after this call she cancelled us. Then she charged us a $30 cancellation fee. We successfully disputed this with the card company but, Uber has refused to remove the $30. We are the newest members of Lift! Poor business practices and NO CUSTOMER SERVICE has lost a lot of business over $30 we should not have been charged in the first place! read more

I made an appointment to be picked up and added my destination. However, this morning in my account there was no scheduled pick-up. We contacted Uber and they sent a driver but it was going to cost me $26.95. I said that last night the cost was $24.94, so why was I being charged more? The guy at customer service gave me some excuse but we accepted because we were flying back home and needed to get to Lynnwood City Center Station. Our driver did not speak English and his car's stench of cigarette smoke filled the air that it was hard to breathe. He dropped us at the wrong address and he would not take us to the correct address. He said I shoul call Uber, so I did. Customer service said he needed the address of our location but we did not know it since we are not from here and the driver had no clue of where he was. Customer service cancelled our ride and called a new driver for an additional $14.95, but on the phone I was informed it would be an additional $10.00. So it cost us approximately $40 for a 1 mile ride. The second driver was goid. It was the scariest most stressful ride we have ever taken. Plus, they are thieves and con artists. I will never use Uber for anything, stay away from these thieves!!! read more

I am leaving this review because I got charged a $25 cancellation fee. I canceled the Uber because the cost of it was nearly twice that of Lyft. It is my opinion that charging someone $29 to go for miles is outrageous and they need to take some serious look at how their billing customers. read more

I have been trying to cancel Uber now for three months. I've never used it!! I called several times, they tell me I have to go online. They can't do it. So I do what they say, it will Not go through. I call them again. They tell me the same thing. This was several times. Today I called again. They told me I have to pay a dollar to cancel (sounds fishy.) but I did go online pay that dollar, (Im desperate)then It won't go through. I still have Uber, I'm on Social Security, however, everything has gone up. Uber is stealing.(How dare them) I will never use Uber Eats or Uber ever again! read more

The worse. Uber let's drivers cancel ur ride when they get a better option. What horrible service. Driver dropped us after waiting 20 mins and picked up the guy next to us that went further read more

Good afternoon, I ordered Uber eats on Sunday 06April from IHOP near me. No fault of restaurant that I see but my driver picked up my food and was a no show to my place of delivery. I was credited back the $40.79 back to my account 3 days later. The info on the Uber apps reflects nothing with this activity or driver that canceled within minutes of picking up my order I did not catch his name. There has to be a better way to track these drivers when they pick up your order. Not exactly sure why he was a no show but he definitely picked up my order and it reflected that in the app. Please inform your drivers to do a better job in communicating with the customer if something goes wrong or if it was malicious intent. It only takes 1 time for things like this to happen to me to be hesitant to order again. Thank you Uber have a blessed day. read more

I was bragging up Uber to my husband as an economical way to get to the airport, and I reserved a ride from Everett Washington to SeaTac airport two weeks in advance of our trip. The driver was confirmed to pick us up at 4 am. At around 4:05 he called and asked where we were. He didn't have our correct address and was at a coffee shop in downtown Everett. He sounded confused and we decided there wasn't time for him to meet our schedule, so I canceled the ride and we drove to SeaTac. Now we're looking at a big bill for parking at an airport lot for two weeks. That was a stressful and needlessly expensive way to start our trip. The only good thing was that we got our cancellation fee refunded. I was really disappointed, my husband was furious, and I doubt if we'll ever use Uber again. read more

Always gets me to my exact destinations. Drivers usually help with lifting and carrying my grocery bags.

reserved a 10 minute $20.00 ride, driver never showed yet logged my group as picked up and proceeded to charge a $120.06 ride to my account. No customer service representative reachable or human to be found for Uber to reverse the fraudulent charges. Would post drivers name as a customer beware notice but I don't know if that's allowed. Poor customer service, fraudulent practices. read more

So unhappy with Uber. I used them over Lyft because it was 30% off if I used Venmo. I set it all up to pay with Venmo but it defaulted to regular payment somehow. I contacted Customer Service (after a total ringmarole because their app won't help you if your question doesn't fit in the right category) and asked them to apply the discount. They said no, several times and very patronizingly. I think they should do a good faith credit to retain a customer, but they wouldn't do it. So off I go to use Lyft, which is generally cheaper anyway! read more

Their customer help is a scam. If you ever have anything go wrong, they will never help you, they'll just pretend with a bunch of copy paste replies, passing you around a million representatives who don't read the issue and never sort anything out or give you responses. They will also just end the chat if they feel like it. read more

The application is not user friendly. I put in my address but it switched to my daughter's address. I could not find a way to change it

I ordered a ride, I admit that. While I'm in the ride I ordered, I'm notified of another ride that I did not order. They charge me 25 bucks to cancel something that I did not order. FYI they also charge me $86 to go 15 mi $86 do not use Uber in the area unless you are having an emergency. I had an emergency read more

Head to the curb. Ahmad, in a white Toyota Camry, complete complacency!! I have a certified service dog in training with an id card and this yahoo cancelled my ride right in front of me!! I even assured him that Boeba would stay on the floor. Complete and total garbage. read more

*** Uber and Lyft USED to be great when they first started business; but like many startups, they eventually price gouge you. This is EXACTLY what BOTH Lyft and Uber now do. It used to cost me around $12 for LYFT or UBER to take me 3.5 miles away. NOW it's AT LEAST $20. I am DONE using these services. I am going to give my business to a TAXI DRIVER, because you are paying around the same price. YELP & UBER are NOW BOTH PRICE GOUGERS. By the way, I have spoken to several drivers about this and they tell me they do not receive any of the PRICE HIKES (aka GREED) percentages. Finally, UBER is NOT an accredited BBB company. In fact, there are CONSUMER ALERTS about LYFT on here. BYE to BOTH APPS.! *** read more

Took an Uber to the airport yesterday. The driver sped away when I tried to get my belongings. Luggage and personal items. Chased her down to no avail. She sped away. Stealing my belongings and then refused to return them for 2 1/2 hours causing me to miss my flight. Then left me stranded at the airport taking 2 fares with my luggage in her car. Customer service is worthless only giving a $5.00 meal coupon. I will tell everyone I know to not use Uber go to Lyft. Spent 3 hours attempting to contact someone. I'm 70 yrs old and was taken advantage of by this company. Elder abuse! read more

We staying at Snoqualmie Inn & each night (we left between 10 & midnight) we had to choose Uber Priority at $25 each ride for an 11 min right from the Snoqualmie Casino. Other, no one would pickup the ride!! read more

Uber is the worst!!!!! They always take an extra $.50 or $.32 or other small increments of money out of your account after your ride. It's ridiculous! I removed their app and my debit card from their service. I downloaded Lyft and used them twice today with no issues, so far. Hopefully they are better. read more

Just about no one Yelps a good Uber ride. I've Ubered here in Seattle instead of renting a car so it has become my main form of transportation for the time being. I've had nothing but good experiences with my rides, so before I can even think of railing on the company because of its CEO, I'm giving it 5 stars. It's convenient and I've only had to cancel once. (Said 5 minutes until arrival- canceled 7 minutes later.) Chalk this one up to a good experience. Not hearsay nor news. Actual experience. read more

Uber - Just take the silly ferry back. - Taxis Near Me

Uber has adopted the resort fee structure that hotels use, what you are told the price will be when you book the ride goes up 28% (my experience) when it is charged to your credit card. Just tell us the price upfront. read more

I took an uber because I have a cast above the knee due to a broken leg. Driver dropped me off 2 blocks away from my appointment. I had to walk on crutches 2 blocks in horrible pain and Uber refused to refund the $12 trip! They gave me a 5 credit?! They claim it is policy.. so it seems they are not required to drop you off at the destination you request. And you still have to pay! I had extensive talks with them finally called my bank to dispute charges as they did not fulfill the service promised. read more

I continue to see Uber/Lyft drivers utilizing Disabled parking spots and clearly do not have the proper credentials or State placards posted. Thinking they would just be a few minutes but in fact are denying the use for legitimate disabled folks. read more

Uber is posting extra charges on my Visa bill without out my permission or any explanation. This is in addition to the charge for the trip, so they are getting extra money at their whim. Nothing I can do about it. They have no customer service line or contact and I have spent 45 minutes to an hour several times to try to reach them. This has been happening in June, July and August 2024. I feel they are actually stealing from me. Cheryl S. read more
