What's the biggest Uber One mistake?
The biggest mistake is signing up for the free trial and forgetting to cancel before the fee hits. You get the perks for a month, then you're charged $9.99 automatically. Set a reminder to cancel right after you sign up, or keep it only if you've actually used it twice that month.
How do you decide if Uber One is worth it?
- Count how many Uber rides and Uber Eats orders you placed last month.
- Multiply that by the average delivery fee or 5% cash back you'd earn.
- Compare that number to $9.99; if it's higher, keep the membership.
- If it's lower, cancel before the next billing cycle starts.
