I've never used Uber (not available in my city). Are surge prices not reflected accurately in the app when booking a ride?

- codystebbins 13y agoThey are reflected quite well in my opinion. Here is a blog post detailing the system they implemented in March 2012 http://blog.uber.com/2012/03/14/clear-and-straight-forward-surge-pricing/ http://blog.uber.com/2012/03/14/clear-and-straight-forward-s.... They also have useful notifications for when surge pricing ends. Not sure what happened in this situation though.
- madeofpalk 13y agoIn fact, they've changed and improved the system since then. Now you have to confirm surge pricing by typing in the multiplier.
- anthony_franco 13y agoRecently they made it so you have to not only agree to the surge pricing, but also type in the surge amount, e.g. "1.75".
