As the rider, yes. I take an Uber once a month to/from a local store, and my phone doesn't even have a SIM card. My apartment building has wifi for when I order my uber, I have wifi at the store for when I'm ordering that Uber home.
Inflated fare prices in times of high passenger demand, called SURGE pricing, often cause people to declare that rideshare prices are more expensive than cab fares. However, this isn't necessarily true. Business Insider published a report that found Uber, on average, to be cheaper than taxi cabs across the country.
Can I pay for Uber with cash? Yes, you can pay with cash. Before requesting a ride, go to the Payment section in the app and select Cash. At the end of your trip, pay cash directly to your driver.
Uber is designed to be a cashless experience, so once the ride is completed, the payment method for the ride is charged. You'll also be prompted to add a tip to the ride. This wikiHow article teaches you how to pay for an Uber ride using the mobile apps or the website.
You will be able to see this fare (less Uber's service fee) before you confirm the Reserve trip. The exact reservation fee may vary depending on the location of the pickup address, and/or the day and time of your trip (up to a maximum of $19.99).
You can tip your driver once your trip is complete. Tips are neither expected nor required. After a trip has ended, you have 30 days to add a tip in the app, on riders.uber.com, and from your emailed trip receipt. When can I tip my delivery partner?
Yes! However, I would suggest calling the driver and asking first. I would also recommend a nice tip. A driver's concern with such a long drive is that the passenger will not tip, typical of Uber riders, and he will have to return home with no fare/compensation for the 2 hour trip back.
No the normal Uber rates are the same any hour of the day, unless of course your area is in a surge. Surge is basically supply vs. demand. If there are more request for rides than their are available Uber drivers nearby, the price goes up.
