Does a Uber refund effect the driver?

Most often case-by-case basis. Generally not. Uber does issue refunds and credits for various reasons, but they often do not come out of drivers' pay. Uber wants to keep their drivers happy just as they do customers, so when a refund is issued to improve customer service, they don't ding the drivers.
