Lyft Driver Pros

App slow to react when at red light or after making a turnHi, I’m a driver in Baton Rouge, La & I really have problems when at a red light & the app shows to go straight 200ft then after passing thru the light the app says to turn right or left! This requires a U turn & confuses the rider & driver as we have heavy traffic in our town & this error sometimes requires driver to go 1/2 mile or more out of the way.. Also many times after making a turn the app is slow to react & indicate the next move causing the driver to miss the turn as he has already passed it.. What are your guidelines for customers who are not outside when driver arrives & when driver attempts to make contact the rider’s phone doesn’t answer or goes to voice mail or has not set up voice mail? One would think the rider would be available but I’ve had this happen many times.. why does the driver not get a fee when the customer is a NO SHOW or cancelled the ride when driver is in the rider’s parking lot? I have trouble turning off my app sometimes while moving which causes the page to slide over then the driver has difficulty focusing on the road causing driver to get a low acceptance rating.. we could use a bigger % also!.Dixon620Version: 1001.86.3

BugsI’ve been driving for lyft for about 2 years and when I first started things were good. Recently it seems like my app has bugs in it. Whenever I get a request it lowers the volume of my music. The only way to fix it is to force close the app after accepting the ride or force closing my music app and open it back up to restore the sound to its original volume. Also the map used to zoom in the closer I got to the passangers location making it easier to find them now it doesn’t so I have to manually do it. I don’t mind except I’m driving and it’s a pain to have to tap the screen several times for it to zoom in fully. There is also the problem with navigation at times. I’ve noticed that whatever app you are using for gps navigates the the pin and that’s not always where the address is. Sometimes the pin will drop on the opposite side of the street or in an alley behind the location. And unfortunately seeing the house/business number isn’t always possible especially at night and I’m where the pin but not where the actual location is so I’ll say I've arrived but I actually haven’t. I wish the apps took the address given in the lyft app and not the location of the pin..LikdaisymaisywaisyVersion: 1002.35.3

Lyft Driver Cons

Worst customer service ever and you cant use express payIve been driving for over 4yrs 4.98 star rating hundreds of rides and great review. But as of these last 10 months or so the customer service is extra crappy. You can only contact by email. Which it will take a few days for them to get back with you. I just received a response for an email i sent 4 months ago. An it literally said sorry it took us so long an that was it. If you have a problem you better figure it out yourself because none on their people are capable of helping. They read everything from a script and cant do anything beyond that. If your actually talking to a human. An they say they have express pay but they dont. At least i dont,a card expires try change it and it doesnt save it just trys ti save for hours. I have actual video if it trying to save. I have spoken with over a dozen different lyft agents about the problem and no one tell me whats going on. They ignore my emails now. They could just say lyft wants you to use their debit card so they can keep control of your money. Heck ive even had to wait over 3 weeks to get paid after emailing 6 different agents and still the same monologue and no results. Uber is not even this bad.KlassyeVersion: 1003.34.3

Not user FriendlyThis app has extremely limited functions for drivers, it’s not at all user friendly if you look at it from a driver perspective. The 2 destination limit is horrid b/c it counts off when it didn’t even get you to your destination, and you can’t do anything should be 5 uses atleast but honestly there should be no limit we’re not kids/slaves/employees , . If you’re in the middle of nowhere you have to end your shift just to get back home, it’s even worse that you can’t edit it. Not to mention, I can’t see any info about the trip except pickup which if I could I wouldn’t have to logout every time I need to drive back to my city. It’s so bad not knowing where a trip will take you expecially for people with families, you’re forced to not even log in for fear you’ll immediately be taken 60 miles away on your first ride. We don’t even have the option to reroute or avoid tolls. Worst part is having to go 20 minutes for a pickup, not knowing where droppoff is and often times it ends up being a 5-10 minute trip ($2-3) which is a complete loss with the amount of time/gas/damage it took getting there. It’s not user friendly at all, and if you get a family emergency good luck making it back..JoetdzVersion: 1003.57.3
