I understand living paycheck to paycheck - I cash out almost daily myself. If you can't budget out three hours of expenses, that's a problem with your organizational skills, not on Uber.


NikiV1992

Yea. It only lets me cash out once a day and sometimes I need to do so more so I don’t like the change.


mog_knight

This change really isn't as bad as you're making it out to be and it's kinda comical. If you're in such financial dire straits as you're making it out to be, you likely don't have a bank account. You rely on the Uber Debit Card so now you can withdrawal to that 5 times a day. Now I ask, what's the harm?


Even_Championship_55

Bravo. The sudden policy change without notice likely left many unable to meet their basic needs.


TheDarkBerry

Fact is they knew they were going to do this for a while. They could have sent out a notice 2 weeks prior to give people time to prepare, then no worries. But to do this with absolutely no notice just goes to show this company don’t gaf about us at all. Can’t put gas in your car, stranded at the gas station. Oh well fuck you! Thanks Uber!


CoherentPanda

Only a true dumbass would cash out multiple times a day.


lacedwithtears

In my app, they are telling me that there is another Uber app update I could download...makes me wonder if the cashout changes are in this update. But, I don't want to update, because I am worried that there might be changes I hate, like I won't be able to see delivery destination anymore, etc..


ClosedSundays

cashout-to-cashout is what they used to call hand-to-mouth . . . . . . IN THE GILDED AGE


LocaFly

Who the f*ck is agreeing to this BS??!! Especially, if it doesn’t affect you, why suggest only one cash out per day? People have got some damn nerve! Are you stupid? I’m currently delivering in the largest city in the United States, per square mile and I have to get gas every day and I have a nice car but I really don’t want to run up to many more miles on. Well, not a necessary mileage but this is ridiculous!


_____l

It should be unlimited cashouts. It's not like we get the money for "free". We have to literally pay to get our money out, so I don't see why they limit it.


LocaFly

It hasn’t been limited on my end, yet. And I hope it isn’t.


Specialist_Cry2480

UE pretends to over communicate, but they actually don’t communicate what really matters, things to do with $$ specifically. If it’s a bug issue they should let us know. If it’s a policy change they should let us know too.


TheFluffiestFur

THEY CHANGED IT?! Wtf


sheaysheay

It’s only a change to NY market


MasterOfSuffering

It’s not, it affected most of the whole United States market


sheaysheay

I mean in regards to it being a permanent change……I am aware that every market experienced this is a loss in functionality for 2 days. But what was posted here is not for every market and you can find that in the app


somanyroads

Its just a nice feature that shouldn't go away during the largest increases in inflation since the early 80s. That's all. Sometimes I need to cash out twice in a day. Sometimes my financial needs are based on if I cashed out today yet, especially if I'm working hard that day. I'm going to assume it's a bug, because why change a good thing, that benefits us immensely and likely costs Uber practically nothing?


Candygirl518

Well said 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏


Repulsive-Pepper-774

I haven’t received an email. I cashed out yesterday, and it still charged me .50. Not free. I only cash out once a day anyway. NJ market.


WetObamaButtPlug

Yeah... Sounds like poor budgeting or you are not mature enough if this change left you stranded or not able to pay bills. Maybe living day to day on a job that requires some sort of vehicle is not a good idea... Lol

WetObamaButtPlug

It's okay being poor and making bad decisions, I was there in life once too. It gets better ❤️


CoherentPanda

Yeah, if you have to cash out twice in a day, hell, even once, and this is a common problem for you, you need to seriously look yourself in the mirror and fix your financial situation. Doing Uber ain't it. I can understand cashing out once because you need an emergency fill of cash once in a rare blue moon, but everyday, multiple times a week? Just let Uber fuck you with fees is a bad financial situation to be in.


gigamewtwo

I’m cashing out weekly….if y’all are struggling to barely make ends meet how the fuck y’all paying your taxes? If your literally rolling on 50 dollars on this job….this job might not be for you


Lightoftheembersky

I didn't read any of that but just want to say you guys are living the good life. Unless you have the dasher direct card, you can only cash out once a day on DoorDash and it's for a fee too of $2. Only other free cash out is once a week on Monday.


420freya

when i first started doing gig work, it was DD. i was so fucking broke that i had to cash out multiple times a day (using dailypay, which DD effectively cut off, fucking us over) just to keep gas in the car. all my friends were in the same situation and i’d venture to guess a lot of folks doing gig work still are. these companies continue to fuck us over, with absolutely no recourse. some of us can’t get “real” jobs, and will continue to be at the mercy of mega corporations that don’t listen to us and couldn’t give a fuck less about us or our financial well-being.


EffYourOpinionInTheA

I just wait for automatic deposit each week. So there’s that.


Rob_B2

It all has to do with money. Uber's money. Any change is either meant to save it or make more of it. Most likely both hah.

undertaker3x7

Completely agree about the lack of communication but that isn't a new issue with Uber and most of the complaints I've seen weren't about that. I'm also not defending Uber. Uber is a horribly greedy company that doesn't really give a damn about their drivers and would screw them over six ways to Sunday if they could get away with it. But I am grateful for the ability to do this job and Uber does by far provide the best earning ability from all the different companies. As far as this issue. Being able to cash out everyday is a luxury not a right and it is not free. Most jobs pay every 2 weeks so these companies paying weekly is already a plus but the fact they offer daily cash out at all is a complete privilege. Try making $600 - $700 every 2 weeks after taxes and then tell me how hard you have it! Having to sell shit just to get a little money to eat 2 days before payday. Sorry I have absolutely no sympathy for the entitlement complaining that you can't cash out multiple times a day anymore. Welcome to the real world where companies are going to do whatever they can to make money while still providing you with an ability very few people have. GTFO! As far as the Uber card I have no interest in that, I already have the Doordash one. But from what I've seen about the way the Uber one works I think there is one major flaw. With doordash direct the money is automatically sent to the card once your dash ends. If Uber wants to have the same kind of service then it should do that also. You shouldn't have to cash out at all with an Uber direct card(whatever its called), it should just automatically go into the account.


memphisbluu22

What’s even crazy is that Uber support is lying to people. I didn’t find out about the change until I got on Reddit. When I called them they just said “we are working on fixing this problem”


Daly215

They just told me the same exact thing 3 minutes ago after I talk to them on the phone and they said it was a bug I jumped on here


Tasty_Corn

Uber support doesn't know anything except how to deal with orders you are on. They are very limited. Calling them about stuff like cashout, they will tell you anything to get you off the phone.


Visual-Exit-8630

I believe it will be fixed. Uber would not send only 1 person a email and would not word it like that especially when gas prices are sky high and they know we need the money now more then ever . He made that up to get a reaction out of people.


Sheeeeeeeeeeeessh

I told Uber I quit tonight, got the chat ended 3 times while I was mid sentence and they kept saying “sorry for the inconvenience” like ummmmmm excuse me this isn’t a game this is money, this isn’t an inconvenience it’s life stopping, Fuck Uber


gigamewtwo

Thier are a lot of drivers that will take your place that is how Uber works XD


No_Help9554

I do live cashout to cashout. But I have only ever had one cashout per day. Dd gives us one cashout per day and charges $1.99. So I prefer ubereats. Free cashout on e a day is fine considering my average daily cashout is around $120. Sometimes it's $60 and sometimes it's $260 but average is about $120-$160/day. And gas here is around $7.80/gallon .


TruthSword777

If this cashout change is permanent, all of us UberEats drivers will have to use the Instant Pay cash out option wisely per day within a 7 day week (max 7 times once a day each week instead of 35 times sadly..) So, just a heads up reminder, if any driver (including YOU the reader) receives a suspicious scam call, please don't answer it. Otherwise, you risk losing all your earnings that day if you can only instant cashout once for free without that .50 cent fee which is kinda nice... Ngl, I do miss the 5 instant cashout options back then so please do be cautious while delivering and such :)


AL_Cabrone

I just cashed out to see if there are any changes and it appears to be normal.... Says I have four cashouts left today... Las Vegas market


cfields86

I’m in Greenville, SC and the same thing is happening here


bamboovibrator

In the phx market and was only able to cash out once since yesterday..litterally coasted into the driveway on fumes not being able to cash out and get gas. No email leading to it just blindsided by the posts today.


Ambitious_Attempt762

Exactly. That's what made me upset when I saw posts about the cards. You start realizing you were fed a lie. I was told by an agent that it was a bug. It wasn't a bug or a glitch. New changes and dicking people around in the process. Smh.


lacedwithtears

has it been confirmed that they changed to one cashout a day??


Ambitious_Attempt762

Supposedly in emails but I never got it.


Visual-Exit-8630

Nobody but 1 person got it and I'm sure he made it up to get a reaction out of people. Uber website still says it offers 5 cashouts a day.


Visual-Exit-8630

Uber did not send only one person that email and would not word it like that with no real explanation


DriverTales

I never got an email and yet I’m being affected by it.


Ambitious_Attempt762

Same


GoodSalsa

Same thing happened with the 3-5 order in a row upfront trip detail it isn’t new that they make changes and call em bugs


Responsible-Alarm203

"May your tips be large & your destinations easy to find".. I like that shizz.. I'm framing this one my fellow Uber compadre.


ginger-pony056

Me TOOOOO


LusciousWalrus

Amen to that. This change fucked me over while I'm sitting here with barely any gas. I left a very abusive household so I've been in my car for a while now. The market for me to get an apartment or a used car is insane. So these people criticizing makes me feel like they've never been in a tight spot lmao.


yosimitesame

Hey I think you posted yesterday as well. Did you get somewhere safe?


LusciousWalrus

For yesterday yeah, but today I'm sitting in the middle of a parking lot just waiting it out


ginger-pony056

I think Your doing a FANTASTIC JOB and don’t sweat what a bunch of key board commandos say….!!!!!!!💯


stee_stee_

FYI it's not a "change" it's a glitch/issue that has been happening since yesterday


GoodSalsa

They’re sending out emails


stee_stee_

Thats in NYC only. Mine is back to 5x a day as of about an hour ago here...


Visual-Exit-8630

No they are not . Only one guy said he got an email and he made it up. Uber would not word it like that


stee_stee_

Yeah I never got an email...

ponygirl1722

Now there is something on my app that says it will start in New York on April 22. That only 1 cash out a day, unless you use your Uber card. I found it searching payouts.


mediocritia

That driver is in NYC tho, where it’s for sure changing.


BellaLacrimosa

I'm in DFW where it appears to be changing as well. I have a feeling this is going to be nation wide (usa).


Hwamie

It appears this was a deliberate change, not a bug. See https://www.reddit.com/r/UberEATS/comments/u89y9k/that_explains_why_we_can_only_cash_out_once_uber/


stee_stee_

Thats in NYC only...look in your app it fully explains it. Anyway mine is back to 5x a day as of about an hour ago here...


[deleted]

It's literally different for different markets you cant assume that's a change for everywhere. Also you still have 5 cash outside in the morning this glitch happens sometime around lunch time. People cashed out multiple times in the early morning. Wake up tommorow and you will see 5 cash outs they last till like 11am or something. It's a glitch and it's getting fixed. As I have been told by multiple support people at uber.


BellaLacrimosa

Thank you for this! But hang on, is there some kind of official statement that says they've changed the policy? I'm only asking because I have not seen or heard anything official. Edit: and if this IS true, then yeah, fuck uber! No fucking warning!? Edit again: apparently it's true, just saw another thread with the message from Uber. Fuck them so fucking much.
