Morning show Abby Wednesday. Friends, Welcome to the show. My
name's inter John Sauce, Hi, Hi Rose, Hello, Oh Hi,
I got Eric, Hoodie, Savera Gangs all here. I loved
you from here nine ninety three three eight to text
dm Z open at WYMUS Radio. Hoodie sent me this,
And I don't know if I think it's a good idea.
Uber is not rolling out cash payments, huh in a
(00:24):
bunch of US cities. Why so? They first test in
Cincinnati and San Antonio. It's now live in La San Diego, Tampa, Jacksonville,
including a smaller places in Texas. So basically you can
still book trips to the app, obviously, but instead paying
with your card, you hand the cash to the driver.
They're saying it's it's a design to reach under bank
(00:47):
customers and have access to car to digital pant methods,
which I don't know. Maybe I don't know, ye, but
they say, I just would feel odd giving cash to
something that's usually cashless. Yeah, it makes sense. But also
but they're saying drivers are saying like, hey, I don't
want people thinking I have cash on me.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. I feel like
that's a kind of a lot for the drivers.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yeah, I would also say too. I think the one
thing about Uber was everything corracs yourself. Taxis back in
the day took advantage of the fact that they're only
game in town. Yes, so you wouldn't know how much
you're really going. They would really tell you that the Uber's
like here, here's the exact location, the exact time, the
exact money. My WORR would be, I know most of
our all Uber drivers listening to the show You're great,
but the wrong ones like hey, I'm gonna be three
(01:32):
stars unless you pay for cash and tip of cash
like that that kind of vibe. I don't like that either.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
I don't know, but I don't know if you'd be
able to change it.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
I don't know. Well, they're saying the drivers also concerned
about non payments.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Like if you're ordering it and then like what if
you don't have the money?
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Yeah, well, and so the longtime driver in Cincinnati said
one passenger left with that pain. Now he records cash
ships in apt to confirm faars, So.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Oh yeah, I don't think that's a good yeat, which like.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
He'll screen record the app. That's crazy. Dispprove he did
the actual thing.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Like, it's just I don't know, Like I don't think
that's a guy.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Yeah. I guess they do it in Europe, but they're
gonna try it here. I don't know. We'll see if
that happens. And the last thing drunk me needs to
do is find cash when leaving the bar. Yeah, what
I love. Your thoughts are attacks nine to nine, three
