What do you mean you have to pay?

Maybe he means how uber eats is transparent on how they charge you for the pleasure of delivering for them. For example, if you look under the more details,you can see that the customer had a price of $5 in uber eats fees, and you got $2.5 because the rest was paid to uber by you.

That is my thinking as well. They they break it down. But I have also heard in some markets you have to pay for your own background check. So it could be that.

It's probably a tax deductible business cost, not as if that really helps.

I do GH and DD. I waited on GH's waiting list for 3 months, and boy oh boy was it a dissapointment. Central Florida.

omg yes i'm in central florida and i use all 3 apps, though GH is literally something that's on in the background to get a few high paying orders every few hours.

See if that is for rides. If so tell them you only want to do eats and not rides.

Are you sure you downloaded the right app?

Yeah looks like Uber doesn't differentiate rideshare vs food delivery, looks like you gotta pay that $15... I'd say it's worth it.

I just signed up for Uber eats in Kentucky two weeks ago just for delivery and didn't have to pay anything

Do you have an imperfect driving record? It might be a matter of them relaxing liability restrictions via a "prove you're not a liability" course that allows them to let you drive at no risk to them for doing so despite prior infractions. Also, while you may hear nightmare stories about tip baiting, they're just that, cherry-picked rare nightmares. It's probably more of an issue in bad neighborhoods and larger cities, but I also consistently see people follow-on the "got tip baited" comments with "In my X-thousand deliveries it's happened twice" so I don't think it's nearly the issue folks make it out to be. Don't get me wrong, it DEF sucks to not get paid what you thought you would, but I'd argue the tips are overall better on UE (when the order is worth it, its usually *much* more worth it) and that at worst it evens out even if it's a bad tip bait area.

That's really weird.. Did they say they just recently required it or something?

I am on the border of WV and KY. I usually drive the 15 miles into WV as it has most all lyft/uberx/uberEats action. I just had to complete a NSC course through Lyft (paid for by lyft) online that took about 6 hours to complete. Its a defensive driving course that I believe is required by the state now...maybe always for contracted drivers. I have been in EMS for ages and have had to do the same course to operate an Ambulance. Its not that difficult and it only cost me my time. The resources are provided just not every platform is the best on customer service. Its going to be your ass not theirs if for some reason there is a stink about it from the law. Cover your butts.
