Never Available
There app is worthless I can book a vehicle 5 days in advance and still drivers not available. Makes it hard when I am 200 plus klm from city of Mackay and need to see specialists for small procedure but cant drive after for the day. So book motel a week ahead so can park my car there then just get a lift from motel, hospital and back. This is not the first time so don't blame COVID. Same happened a year ago when in town and can't call a driver direct. Even reading the bad reviews here it's just not Mackay. Why hasn't ASIC started looking into ...Read more
this company. I'm all for taxis but there fares are a joke cost me $900 last time to get back to Dysart, I can freight an Engine from Melbourne for that. A special one way parts run from Mackay out to the mine here costs $450 so taxis need to pull there heads in and be more realistic with fares. But got no choice but to use a cab next week. And no star rating for Uber.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Hopeless support team
Support office can not do their job. Hopeless! Every time when you ask to do something they just simply delete all the docs and ask to reupload all again. This is what happens when you higher idiots on board

Will just use a regular taxi service next time
First experience using Uber . Busy Friday (early) evening in Townsville exposed the piracy that Uber is . $13 first trip and 2hrs later @6pm $33 for the return trip . What a joke . First and last time Uber . If drivers want to play that game it comes back to bite . Won’t use again .

Worst drivers
Uber needs to train their drivers more on road rules and courtesy to other drivers
I have been cut off by so many uber drivers in the last few months and have complained to UBER with no response
Would never use uber they are the worst and they rip you off with the stupid pricing

Professional scam
Uber is a company that assists thieves to easily steal and even provides them with an app to do so.
Had a customer order some parts and sent and Uber to collect them. Uber driver cancelled the job but still came and collected the goods. He never delivered the parts, he just stole them. The driver was the person in the photo but he signed a different name. Absolute scam! What a joke!

uber code for a service I have NEVER used
I have never looked into, gone onto the site, NOTHING at all and just 2 minutes ago I got 2 texts giving me a code telling me I can opt out...I will be going to the ombudsman and putting a formal complaint in as you sending me these texts at 10.38pm waking me up is not acceptable...

Uber is a terrible company to deal with
Uber is absolutely shocking. In Australia there is no way to complain other than the limited auto options in the app. There is no customer service, no phone or even in app chat option. The Uber route sent through the map was completely wrong, took us miles out of the way and I was then overcharged by 60% and the app advised I had accepted the charge when I booked the app which is a lie. I will be using Ola only from now on.

Uber app route rort! Will always choose the more expensive without option to change
Uber app showed one the one route to get to destination which was approx 67km with 2 lots of tolls, when compared to google maps there was alternative route 37km in total with no tolls and the difference between the drive was less than 5 min apart. When I hopped in Uber car, the driver was happy to go with alternative and was also shocked at what an unethical approach and limitation on Ubers behalf. We drove the shorter route got there prior to the original arrival time but Uber still charged $129 and advised they reviewed this and discounted i...Read more
t from the original $131; though there were no toll and 30km less drive that the $131 route. Total rort! Time to use the new competitors services. Suggest people compare routes and compare providers going forward, the commercials from Ola and Didi all of a sudden look very appealing and truthful in their ads noting same distance same driver less $$Similar opinion?

Error in booking
I just booked a ride for 9.15 am 6 March and paid to discover the pick up address I typed didn't work and wrong address is showing. Uber says to go to App and click on help and there is no help showing and I am not happy with this app as I have paid with my card.

They didn’t turn up for nearly 2 hours and then charged $100 for less than 10 kilometres
Uber booked .. constantly saying 6 minutes away - then calls and says his cars axle was broken
Uber sent 2nd driver but fare changed whilst waiting- saying we would be charged 3 times more than original price
You can’t ring and complain they make it impossible to contact and complain- an appalling joke of a service use GI Gi instead or a taxi cause this was a direct rip because their drivers vehicle was unreliable hence he didn’t turn up ... if there was - stars I’d give them - 10- they left us stranded vulnerable...Nuh.... belt your service up your clacker Uber - and ya blocked by my bank as well - thieves

The worst ever possible experience
Uber are the worst company in the world to deal with. Their drivers come late and are plain rude with no regard for your time or road rules. They forget that there are many other ride sharing platforms. Go with anyone but Uber.

Uber driver pulls up, swears at me to cancel ride.
Uber is alright. Some drivers are good, some are bad. However, uber seriously needs to have guidelines on how their drivers should respond. I’ve experienced a driver arrive, swear at me, calling me names and swearing at me to cancel the ride? Then think its okay to cancel and have no repercussions to randomly swearing at a customer for no reason? I wasn’t dresses in a manner where I could be seen as someone doing dodgy things. Uber doesn’t care about customers and only cares about profits as they haven’t responded to my report of the incident or any other reports from other customers.

Overpriced and not correct
We have just used Uber in Sydney. They qouted the ride as 60 AUD so we decided to use them rather than a taxi. When we got to the hotel and received the invoice it turn out that we had to pay AUD 79! Much more expensive than a taxi ride!!!!! And much more than they quoted and we expected! It is not fair. I do not think we will use Uber ever again! This is not a correct company. It happened second time to us with them. They always overcharge you.

No discounts/coupons from Uber!!!
I have used Uber quiet alot and never get discounts/coupons to use. I have received numerous discounts offering 15%-30% off rides from Ola/Didi which makes me choose to ride with them over Uber. So if you want people to stick with Uber maybe you should be offering some discounts!!

Unpleasant
First time using Uber. My cat needed an emergency visit to the veterinary clinic. I didn't have a car at the time and it was noted that I needed a lift to an animal hospital, so it was a no brainer that I'd have an animal with me, but to be sure I also noted that I will have a cat with me. The driver arrives and immediately locks his car door as I was pulling it open.
I understand they may have allergies to pet fur and all, but my ordeal has left me quite sour. Rather than explaining why he's refusing me service, the man just locks his door and asks "Is that a pet?" (Mind you, my cat was in a carrier) I said "yes", And his response was "no" and he drives off, as he was pulling away, he yells at me to cancel the service on the app.

Talk to your bank to cancel the payment
Uber are as shady as oak trees- I canceled card so the shifty can’t bill me unlawfully
Yes! Multiple to-&-fro chat, each time they refused a refund giving the same generic cut & paste that they had reviewed my "trip". No trip at all occurred.
