Uber is Freaking Crazy

Discussion

Uber prices have gone up nearly 60% compared to what I was paying before, and at this point it feels completely unreasonable.

What makes it even more frustrating is how it feels like Uber is making the passenger suffer while they sort out their driver-side issues. Instead of maintaining reasonable fares, prices suddenly spike and the customer is left with no real alternative.

A ride that used to cost a reasonable amount can suddenly become 60% more expensive, and we're just expected to pay it because we need to get somewhere.

This isn't just normal inflation anymore. Uber is absolutely milking customers. They know people need transportation, they know surge pricing can be extreme, and they keep pushing the limits of what people are willing to pay.

At this rate, using Uber feels less like paying for a convenient service and more like getting ripped off because you don't have a choice.
