Why does uber never give me rider pass discount?

Apr 12, 2018 18 Comments

I have a passenger rating of 4.7 which is ok but that's the only variable I can think of. Everyone I know gets discounts and some don't use lyft either. They sent me a discount back and it was for my previous city. Should I just delete the account and start over new?

    Maybe depends on how often you ride? I get either 50% off for a week or $4 off each ride for a week. Week after week. I don’t know if they still have the VIP program but perhaps when you reach a certain number of rides, that increases frequency of discounts you get.

      Can’t seem to find an answer yet but one site I found (thepointsguy - quite reliable I think) notes if you’re an on-time passenger that affects whether you get promotion emails.

    Their model assumes you are loyal. Use Lyft more or avoid using Uber for a while.

    The shitty part of the ML world is that most models (unless explicitly guided) will treat the most loyal customers the worst.

  • You probably ride too much. They gave me it a couple times, then I saved hundreds of dollars and never again.

    Depends on the amount of rides, and on where do you go.
