What is everyone's experience with Uber scheduling? Seems that unless you are in a densely populated locale, it's not happening. I'm 1 for 3 over the past three Monday's in DFW.

A1 Yup. Consciously think to myself "Suck it women!" when I call one 🙄

Can't believe y'all still use uber. Do you just hate women and love the patriarchal oppression so much you'll spend the few extra dollars of your 6 figure salary?

OK - thank you all. Seems they released a functionality without adequate testing. My driver this morning told me that the scheduling function only alerts a driver if s/he is in the area - not transiting through, whereas the call function alerts everyone.

As far as boycotts and all that, considering that over 70% of the typical fare goes to the driver, not using them is more of an inconvenience for me, doesn't support the local economy, and isn't sending any kind of cogent message to the leaders at Uber.

Not even worth doing in my area. I order taxis because of how unreliable ride shares are Monday morning

Always gotten one within my scheduled timeframe (as early as 5ish) from DC to Edinburgh. Usually on the front end, occasionally before even.

The scheduling feature has never worked out for me

If you are in dfw just use Wingz

Uber app kept giving me an error so I decided to just call a taxi since I needed to leave at 3:30am. Later saw that uber sent me an email confirming my scheduled ride. Felt pretty unreliable :/

Didn't work this AM and the hotel security guard had to drive me to the airport on her way home

@A1, someone's cranky today... No ones spending a few extra dollars since everyone expenses their ride. Lyft can just be hard to get in some cities, and doesn't have the schedule in advance function.

Lyft does in fact have schedule in advance function. Albeit, my one experience seems as useless as you all are experiencing with Uber.

Seriously guys Wingz is great. Check it out
