The Dirty Secret Uber Doesn’t Want You to Know: Stop Stealing Our Tips!

Food delivery and rideshare drivers, listen up! If you think tip stealing or tip shaving is just a conspiracy theory, it’s time to wake up. We’ve proven time and time again that Uber is dipping into our tip jar. This is our hard-earned money, and it’s time we said enough is enough. Uber, we’ve had it with your shady practices, and this needs to stop—now!

The Proof Is in the Pudding (or the Tip) Let’s get into the details. On August 26th, a food delivery driver conducted a test with a friend to expose Uber’s sneaky tactics. The trip in question lasted 22 minutes, earning the driver a pathetic $3.59. Uber estimated the total trip value at $12.60, including the tip, but the tip never showed up.

The customer had tipped $14.92—generous, right? But here’s where things get murky. Uber’s estimate included the tip, yet the driver only received $3.59. Simple math shows Uber shaved off a whopping $6.50 from the driver’s tip. That’s not a rounding error—that’s theft, plain and simple.

The Ugly Truth: They’ve Been Caught Before Let’s not forget that this isn’t Uber’s first rodeo. They’ve been sued before for stealing tips, as have other companies like DoorDash. Did they stop? Of course not! They’re just biding their time until the next lawsuit, banking millions of dollars from drivers’ tips in the meantime. They’ll settle for a fraction of what they’ve stolen, pocket the rest, and keep on doing it. It’s a sickening cycle of corporate greed.

Where’s the Accountability? Why isn’t the government stepping in? Why aren’t these executives behind bars? It’s outrageous that these corrupt practices are allowed to continue unchecked. Uber conveniently delays tip deposits, buying themselves time to figure out how much they can skim off the top. It’s time for us to demand justice.
