    I'm in Australia and did one friday night for app. 6hrs ... got trip after trip .... after Uber takes their money, petrol and tax it worked out to be app. $20 per hour ... That doesn'y consider wear and tear on your car, depreciation given you are going to put huge KMs on your car and the risk of letting strangers into your car ... I really don't know why people do this ...

    This is awesome. I only drive Fri-Sun cause I have a full time job during the week. Was driving Uber to just get some extra money on the side. The most I made on a 3 day weekend was $486. I drive in FL and frequently drive around Orlando and Jacksonville.
    Keep up the good work, sir! :)

    My co worker ordered an UBER SUV by mistake in New Orleans...she thought her airport ride was going to be $25 and it ended up being over $100. I told her that she ordered an SUV. I asked her if she noticed it was a luxury SUV and she said she didn't notice. These luxury SUVs can run 50-80K which is one thing that Torsten doesn't tell you. In order to make the big money you have to have the right clientelle...i.e rich people. You have to drive in populated areas where a lot of upper class people live. If you try driving an Uber SUV in a small down or middle/lower class area you are not going to get any requests.

    • @davidb4411
      @davidb4411 7 лет назад +6

      If you watch his videos, he goes into great detail about the SUV's as well as the other options. He's said several times to not jump in too deep. I wish I would have found his videos before I signed up with Uber!

    • @LifeMasterz

      How is it possible she didn't know how much it was going to be? Uber tells you the cost from the moment you put in your destination.

    • @JeffBrown518
      @JeffBrown518 7 лет назад +2

      Great point -- people used to be able to use that excuse, but like you said, Uber puts in the cost estimate right in front of your eyes before you press, "request ride." Was she not paying attention?

      Joseph Messineo this is so true. I drive a 2005 Lexus and every single person thinks that it's at least a 2010 or newer because it looks so good. I get mostly Uber pool requests and part of me wants to start turning them down because I don't know what I'm missing while I'm on a trip for 30 minutes but then again I feel like I should accept everything I can because I may not get another request for 5 or 10 minutes. I don't even hardly get uberX anymore and I realize this video is 1 year old but things really obviously have not changed very much but no. I am in the Uber select category and in the 1.5 months I've been eligible for that category, I've only gotten one request. Oh I'm sorry, it was immediately canceled as you could tell it was a mistake so that right there goes to show you that you're not going to make very much money, to go out and buy a car or a higher-end category or a luxury category, it's not worth it unless you just want that car and have another job besides Uber. This s*** has run my s*** into the ground and people in Atlanta don't tip. I do everything I can from helping with luggage, providing candy, just being super respectful, engaging in conversation or leaving them alone if they seem like they need to do something or have earphones, it seems like nothing really makes it different so it's like, why even do most of this s***? I will always help the elderly no matter what and even females close to my age, I'll offer to help with their luggage and at least get out and open the door for them and things like that because it's not going to take any longer but as far as getting out to help a man, I'm done LOL they usually tell me to get back in the car anyway but, it's the thought that counts

    Uber advertises a 20-25% commission taken from its drivers, but we found that that number is actually a lot higher. On minimum fare rides, it can be as much as 50% commission when you take into account the safe ride/booking fee.

    • @sharonash3129

      It's so Harding I've been driving with Uber for over 4 years. And my rating is 487. But my rating continues to bounce up and down constantly. With the ones and the other numbers. But I am definitely considering on stop driving for uber. They take in excess on some rides 50 to 60%. I've never seen a company so money hungry in my life. They s*** on the drivers every chance they get. I do about 400 to $500 a week. But I only drive 15 hours a week. And I'm in the dmv. I would encourage people to do Uber part time if you can. I am retired. But Uber is a really Cutthroat company and it's just so sad it hurts my heart when I see all of these videos. Always talking about the things that Uber is always doing trying to make more money for themselves f*** us. So I'm just really tired I don't feel like keep fighting with uber. And try to figure out their next con. But yeah please please listen to these videos they're very important. This guy has been in business for however long he's been. He's a cutthroat he's a liar he's a stealer and he's a cheater. And he uses us as drivers, for all his plots and games. And I'm so sick of uber. Lyft is no better but they're a little better.

    • @AskTorsten
      @AskTorsten  8 лет назад +1

      i think the van would make a great Ubet XL vehicle. Uber black is usually black exterior, black interior four seater. if you goigle Uber black they tell you what cars are permitted. ask Uber how many different categories your vehicle can drive in. my Chevy suburban can drive suv, black and xl for example, so way more different types..hope i answered your questions

      الحجاج الثقفي thank you for your message..both categories work very well around the airport, Kensignton, Hyde Park, tourist attractions. You can go for any of the two. The nain thing is to build repeat clientele with many business cards you need to be handing out You have the opportunity to get at least 20 repeat clients within one year

    • @Milesamanjaro
      @Milesamanjaro 7 лет назад +3

      For Uber Select/Black:
      -foremost, the vehicle needs to be a vehicle that Uber deems as a "high-end" or "luxury" vehicle, i.e. Audi, Cadillac, Mercedes-Benz, etc.
      -the vehicle is usually within a younger production age bracket, sometimes 5 years old/newer, sometimes 2 years old/newer, depending on the market
      -Uber Black requires the vehicle to meet these specifications, along with a black exterior and a black interior
      -Some markets don't offer Uber Black and instead offer Uber Select (this is usually in smaller markets)
      When I registered my C-class two years ago, it was on the edge of its production age bracket to qualify for Uber Select, but since being registered it has been "grandfathered-in" and I still receive the same option to receive Uber Select requests, so that might also vary from market to market.

    I drive UberX and for a week of driving I average between $600 on slow weeks and $750 - $950 on weeks with some event happening. I don't get much in the way of tips because 98% of my passengers are college kids who won't tip unless you serve them drugs or alcohol or they accidentally leave a few bucks on my back seat. I drive Mon - Sat probably 6 - 10 hours a day.

    Hey man thanks for making these videos. As you may know Uber offers car rental for people with no car. $180/week or free after 75 rides. I however want to drive Uber black and SUV. What would be the cheapest way to rent an SUV for that? If there is any option.

    Quick question: how does one build clientele when uber gives you trips based on your location? How does social media play a part in increasing your finances at the end of the day?

    • @AskTorsten
      @AskTorsten  7 лет назад

      Social media allows you to market/advertise your referral code(s) and refer drivers. The rideshare companies pay different bonuses for these referrrals

    Hello I am from Indianapolis and I have been driving Uberx in Brisbane Australia for almost two years and after Uber takes their cut I am making over $2000 a week. I try and be very efficient in wasting fuel and usually work about 55 hours a week and average around 140 trips the key for me is I drive all over the city and when I get big trips I play where ever I am

    How exactly do you approach people to setup for regular rides? I was thinking of making biz cards and giving my number out like that. I'm uberx but I work affluent areas, have a nicer vehicle for uberx and a solid 4.91 rating after 1k rides. If you can point me to a vid or make one let me know. Congrats on the good day.
