Yes, but wouldn't you then dispute the charge with your credit card company?
- mathrawka 8y agoDespite several email exchanges, Uber never agreed to reimburse her the extra money. But she disputed the charge with her credit card company and got back her $98. Uber then canceled her account.
- xkcd-sucks 8y agoTypically companies store CC info hashed with a per account salt, so you can sign up for another account with the same credit card
- baddox 8y agoWouldn't they need the plaintext credit card number to, well, charge the credit card? Maybe not, if they're using a third-party credit card processor that stores the credit card number keyed by an account ID, but I doubt Uber is using a separate processor.
- toomanybeersies 8y agoUber will ban you by name, so you can't just use a new card.
- waterhouse 8y agoSurely names aren't a unique identifier? "John Smith" et al. Would they keep around other information and use that?
- mikeyouse 8y agoYou could, but then you'd likely be banned from Uber in the future..
