Easiest way just go on Twitter and tweet support. You'll get a response asap. Second way look at all the emails you've ever received from uber and look for a account Id, like a 16 character code. Its not published, look at the lin

Uber's work place shenanigans have been a open secret for a while now. People either didn't believe the rumors or thought it wouldn't effect them in their role. Most people didn't care about the rumors because of the S
