If I can choose bother Uber Driver and Uber eats on recommending "maybe" I would like Supermoney to provide both options. My experience with them is a mix of both. There are times that they are effective and efficient and there were instances that they are not especially when you schedule a driver to pick you up or food delivery. None of the drivers have ever contacted me about concerns. ...Show More

While I have not personally driven for Uber, I know many people that have done so . It is very flexible in the sense where you work on your schedule with your hours. I have also heard that they have very bad customer service. Overall, the pros are the flexible schedule and the cons is the lack of customer service.

I have been driving for 6 months and for the first time in my long life, have not been able to pay my bills. Every penny I earn goes directly to the cost of operating my vehicle. In fact, I am losing money because of rapid and enormous depreciation. Please note that I live in what is considered to be one of the best markets for the rideshare economy. Unless ...Show More
