Uber customer service department assists customers including drivers, partners/car owners, and riders with timely assistance using email services, internet resources, and mobile app. The Uber hotline number is also active 24 hours a day, and 7 days a week to provide official and reliable support to the customers/drivers.
Uber Customer Care
Uber offers official support to tech-savvy customers through social media channels such as Facebook and Twitter. The following types of solutions are offered by Uber technologies to help customers –
1. Contact Uber Customer Service by Uber App
However, if you are trying to contact Uber customer service for any purpose then there is no direct telephone number for Uber customer service that you can use. Having said that there are other ways through which you can contact them
There is a help option available in the app. For General Rider inquiries one can use in-app self-help section that allows riders to quickly reach out to Uber Customer care and 24 X 7 help is via this section.
As mentioned they do not have a call-in support structure. Their help section works wonderfully for getting an instant response.
Follow the steps
1. Download Uber App to your iPhone, Android, or Windows Smart Phone, and sign in to your personal account.
2. Open Uber App: Open your Uber app by taping on the black Uber icon.
3. Tap on menu icon: You will see a three line menu at top left corner. Just tap on that.
4. Tap on Help: Tap the ‘Help’ item from the App’s menu and read all the information or report any trip related issue to Uber.
5. Select topic: Read the topic carefully. Select topic related to your issue for example (refund, payment, guide, driver call, lost item, etc.)
6. Select your issue: Now select the main issue you are facing. it is listed in the list. This list is showing as you selected the topic in previous steps. To change the topic you can go back to previous steps.
7. Choose unknown charge type. Here we are taking the example of an unknown charge. You need to select the option as per your issues.
8. Enter charge amount: What amount is deducted you need to enter here.
Riders can book or cancel rides, track routes using GPS, use the offline map, calculate estimated fares, and check the App for various options and details.
2. Contact Uber Customer Service on Twitter
Usually, all e-commerce entities are more active on social media as their profiles are public and so does Uber Customer support, However you may get a generic response from them online, but it’s the best way to make them call you back and to get to speak to a real human from Uber.
Uber’s open official support handle at Twitter, “@Uber_Support” to help Uber users.
Tweet your query to any of these handles. Uber Customer support is supposed to respond quickly.
3. Is there any email support available in Uber?
If you feel that the issue is different and unique and you are not satisfied with the option in the app or on the website then feel free to contact Uber Customer Support by email.
You can contact them by writing an email at support@uber.com. Their response time is quick and generally answered in 24 Hours.
Update: Uber official support email is support@uber.com, But since December 2016 email is replaced by the app and Help Desk.
4. Did You Lost Something in Uber Cab
A very interesting blog was published by Uber a while ago that mentioned statistics on how many times Uber riders leave their personal items behind.
However, there is hardly any better version found than this option when you are trying to contact Uber Customer Care. There is no Uber customer care telephone number from where you can get a response from an actual person.
Blog by Uber- https://www.uber.com/newsroom/2018-uber-lost-found-index/
It is the moment of panic when one realizes that they have misplaced an item. In this study most of the time it has been a Phone. The best way to retrieve a lost item is to call the driver.
- Log in to the app.
- Select “Contact my driver about a lost item”.
- You will get a call on your phone.
But if most interestingly you have forgotten your phone in the cab then that option is not your best bet.
Also in cases where you want to reach out to Uber directly instead of the driver, use the Support function available.
Here is the link that you can use to enter your details and the details of the trip after signing in- t.uber.com/lost
5. Uber Customer support for Driver partners
Phone support only for driver Partners and is available on their website. This number is available 24X7.
- 800 101 3611 (Uber Toll-Free Contact Number)
- (65) 31584255
Driver partners can also access help option from their Uber app by following simple steps
- Login to the Uber app from their smart phone
- Help Option available on the top right of the screen
- Click on Support
According to a source, Uber does have an emergency number, 800-353-8257. It’s supposed to be reserved for “very critical” situations and it would probably be best to just call the police in the majority of “very critical situations”.
People associated with Uber and a regular user should always have this number handy.
We would have definitely expected Uber to provide it in cabs but since they have a SOS button, having an emergency contact number is not a legal requirement.
Here is detailed info. How to Contact Uber Customer Service for Drivers?
6. How to Report a serious incident involving a driver or vehicle
Uber customer page can give instant access to a lot of information. After logging in to help.uber.com Sign into your account.

Here is the link to the form uber.com/business

US corporate office: 182 Howard Street, San Francisco, CA 94105
8. How i can contact Uber on Facebook?
Just like Twitter Uber customer care also keeps an eye out for complains, issues and question on Facebook page and replies pretty quickly.
One will usually get a typical generic response, however, it’s the best way to put Uber in spot and direct questions that are typically not answered otherwise.
It is also believed that companies deploy their best staff on social media. Different countries have different Facebook pages so do a search for UBER on your Facebook page and choose the one that suits you.
9. Is there any web support available?
If you are a non-smartphone user, then you can access the ‘HELP ‘section from the website.
Their Official website is www.uber.com
On the top right corner an option for Help is available as shown in the picture below.
Uber has a new home on the web where it offers comprehensive help support and detailed information for all the customers. You can follow these sequence of steps-
Use a computer, mobile phone, laptop, or tablet with internet connectivity.
- First, you have to open the official website at the following link- https://www.uber.com/
- After that, create a personal account or login by clicking the ‘Sign In’ link at the top of the home page.
- Click the ‘Help’ link at the top of the page and open the web support of Uber.
- You can click the appropriate links and go through details of trip requests, fare calculation, payment options, privacy issues, airport services, etc.,
- In addition, you can use web support to request a ride, sign up as a driver, or find a location or city near you.
- The help pages can also be browsed or searched for information without signing in as a member or partner.
On the help page one can find a lot of already answered questions that can direct you in the right direction.
10. Local Driver Websites
- Drivers and partners with cars can browse Uber’s localized and personalized web resources for additional details. Hit the “uber.com/drive/” link on home page, and
- go through the details of vehicle solutions, driver app, and safety standards.
- You can also browse the local driving information for your specific city using the ‘Local Driver Guide’ option.
- Go through all the latest Uber related news in your country, and sign up as a driver after checking the details of local resources and required documents for your specific city.
11. Uber Greenlight Desk (in-person assistance)
Last but not the least Uber is an emerging e-commerce company which has been really successful in leaving a mark and setting up standards. Apparently, they don’t provide call-in support for Riders but for their driver partners, they are going miles.
In the same light, Uber recognized how difficult it could be for the driver partners to live without any coordinator. Uber launched the many Greenlight hub across the world.
- In selected cities, you can meet Uber customer support staff in person at the help desks known as Uber Greenlight.
- At the Greenlight Hubs, you can have a one-on-one question and answer session with an Uber expert.
- At Greenlight spots, New drivers can seek in-person assistance, and service activation support.
12. Uber Corporate office address
182 Howard Street,
San Francisco,
CA 94105.
Uber offers transport referral services using technology, communications, and human resources.
The company connects riders and taxi drivers with the assistance of Uber App for Smartphones.
In addition, Uber offers various other features and facilities like GPS navigation, offline map searching, fare estimation calculators, personal accounts, route tracking, customer services, and payment processing.
Uber customer care assists drivers and riders who require emergency assistance or safety-related support or information.
Note: Uber is finding ways to connect with people more closely. They are identifying the issues. Safety seems to be their one of the priority.
It does reflect that they take care of their employees and driver partners well.
If Uber comes up with a contact center it will be the busiest and a dense call center. Their app is very useful and so are all other handles too.
Laquitta Butler says
I need to know how do I pick up my Uber car to drive everything else is sit up please let me know so I can start working my 706-713-7424
Via smith says
This is total BS. Why do service with a company? I CAN NOT reach by phone? So you take credit card info but I can not reach one person in customer support until they decide (24- 48 or 72 hours later) to respond? No Bueno. No Good. Pa Bo. time to switch.

Alyssa Reiter says
I have been trying to reach someone at Uber for quite some time. No luck. I think someone has hacked my account. I need to dispute charges. I know you are supposed to tap the ride but that is the issue. We did not take the rides we are charged for and it is ongoing and a lot of money. Please let me know how to discuss this with you. Of course, I am removing the card from the account but this is a bigger issue. I do not want to go on and on this but please let me know how to speak to someone who can discuss the issue intelligently. Thank you
Uber says
You should request the refund now. See details here, How to request Uber refund?
Rebecca Ferrera says

Ronald says
I have been trying to get help with this Issue , I can not use my payment method and its link with Paypal, I have non relevant answers given to me by Uber help, a lot of texting going back and forth, all the suggestions are either not helpful or all completely irrelevant, deleting the Uber eats app , delete the uber apps and reinstalled, call PayPal, none of the above work, Short of just try to talk to the customer and Uber does not have this option, its unreal. I like to discontinue doing business with them since they don’t let me use my Paypal account and they do not help me at all. This issue started before and reoccurred again March 1, 2018.
I like all to know this is the reason why I am saying “END of Doing Business with UBER”..like many others that do not get help in reality. Agent Kristina is a LIAR, she never follows up on my issue.
Joe says
I keep getting text from uber yet I don’t even have an account. Their numbers either can’t be called or it’s just a recording with no way to talk to someone. I need them to stop txt me at work so I don’t lose my job.
Harold Williams says
I don’t have an uber account but I keep getting receipts sent to my email from someone who does. Who do I contact to get my email off the account?
Billy Carlson says
I have completed my online application to drive for Uber approximately 10 days ago. Uber said: Congratulations, you’ve completed the driver sign up the process.You’ll be notified shortly, once you’re approved.
How long does it take to be approved ??
Maria Avina says
Hello. I’m Maria Avina. Some mysterious Uber driver is showing up to my mother in law’s house asking for me. He says that I requested a ride when in fact I didn’t. How can I stop this?
Ezy e says
Hello
I am disabled for reasonable accommodation I need to take trip using Uber to get to my medical appointments and hospital visit weekly.
I am inquiring as to why my account was disabled. My old phone was compromised and I reported it to Uber support to deactivate my account along with the debit card associated with it. Since I have received a new phone, I download the Uber app from Ipad app store. Once I have downloaded the Uber app, I opened the app and sign up. Once I have entered in all my personal details I create and activate an account for me. I setup my account today and attempt to request a picked up. After I noticed that the destination address was incorrect I canceled immediately. I did not get any warning saying that my debit card will be charged for cancel fees. When I attempt to request another ride, my Uber account has already been disabled. Now, my debit card was charged for cancellation fees.
Could someone kindly reactivate or removed the restriction for my UBEr account?
Thanks,
Michael says
My first experience was horrible. The driver showed up at the wrong address. My address starts with 267, not 274. He waited at wrong address, didn’t bother calling me to see where I was. Next, I told him that I have a heart condition (only 25 percent output from my heart) and needed to enter a ’round trip, but since I was new to Uber, I didn’t know how. So, he entered it for me. The app showed the round trip plus the price. I told him that a realtor was going to show me a new office and that it might take 15 to 20 minutes. He assured me that he would wait. He didn’t wait. When I got back, he was nowhere to be found. I checked my phone. He hadn’t called. I checked the app. He was logged out and I had a charge of $10.64. I checked my bank. The charge of $10.64 was there. The driver left me stranded there AFTER being told of heart condition. Never called. Never came back. I didn’t want to get charged another ten bucks. That’s why I wanted round trip to save money. So, I was just stuck. Didn’t have a way to contact the driver. No way to call Uber.
To add insult to injury, an additional $5 charge showed up on my bank statement online AND I never got my freeride discount for this being my first ride. AND Uber assured me on the app that I wouldn’t be getting one.
Well, folks, that’s my first and LAST Uber experience, since Uber provides no way to communicate by phone AND hires unreliable drivers AND is dishonest about their “freeride” discount.
I’ve used Lyft several times and ALWAYS had a good experience. My mistake. I should’ve used Lyft.
Good news is that I’m a writer and have over 1.2 million readers online and I can help protect them from having an Uber Experience.
waseem ahmed says
I would like to know that why my account has been deactivated and what mistake was made .
kindly let me know so i will take another options to take my source of income because it was a my full time diiver job with uber .
Thanks.
Adina says
Many employees of our company use a Lloyds card to make payments for their rides. We do not know who are the employees that are using this card. I would like to know how can we disconnect these users from this card or how to delete this card from their accounts. Unfortunately, because we don’t have an evidence of these users, I would also want to know who used this card for the past 5 months because we need to collect the invoices for our records.
Could you please help me with this issue? Or give suggestions about what can we do, it would be very helpful.
Thank you

The Customer Care
Uber
On 29th November 2018 at 4.50AM I have used Uber car to travel to Airport from my residence at Salt Lake. The reference no.4941. I have paid a sum of Rs.151.75 against the said ride.
The driver told me that the payment has already been made. I have told him that I am NOT using Uber frequently and don’t have any Uber account also. Thus it is a mistake and I have paid the money in CASH.
Now I am getting message from your customer care that a sum of Rs.151.75 is due from me. Kindly verify the same and make necessary correction in your system.
Guy says

Durga Singh khangarot says
My account is disabled how I am Back?
Uber says
Follow this article How to Reactivate Disabled Uber Account
Juan says
My account has been disabled apparently because the only time I use UBER, the payment was declined. I called once to reactivate and the person told me to pay the amount used. I said, no problem, can I do it with you? And she said no that the only way is thru the app. How can I make the payment if the app doesn’t let me in because I’m blocked? Nonsense.
jole workman says
I am told my daughter is being held hostage by an uber driver at the edison mall in fort myers fl, for a 60$ payment. I am will to pay this driver…but my daughters phone had died and i cannot find the driver.(sonya fontichiaro)
Susie says
Hey did anyone else notice the only questions answered by Uber were the simple ones and very few at that?
They care about dollars, so we the customers should have the ‘cents’ not to use these fools any more.
maria says
My account has been hacked and someone is using my email- how do I delete account? I have reset my password twice and they are still trying to use. I cannot get a person to help.
