yes this - takes exceedingly long to get a driver and the price gets jacked up each time the search expires. not sure why this is happening ?? i’ve been noticing for past few weeks now , happy someone else has tacked on

There’s been a new regulatory requirement that requires drivers to do face verification before each ride to prevent driver mismatch

New York folks:
Are you aware of the CPA exam credit extension to 2021 for NY CPA candidates impacted by COVID19? It’s on a person-by-person basis and you need to request the extension. Has anyone tried doing this yet? Can anyone shine more light on this? The extension would really help me, but I’m not sure what more to tell them in my email than the fact that I couldn’t sit for the exams this Spring/Summer due to test centers closing in NYC.
