Uber has devalued Uber Rewards yet again, you can no longer redeem 500 points for a $5 Uber cash. This was the best redemption option so disappointing to see it gone.

Thank you for being part of Uber Rewards. It’s been a great ride, but we’ve decided to end Rewards soon, as we shift our focus to our new Uber One membership program.
You will still earn points and enjoy Rewards benefits until the end of the month. And there’s still time to get all the rewards you’ve earned: just use your points by October 31. You can redeem them from the Account section of your Uber and Uber Eats apps.
Thank you for being a loyal Uber customer.
Wow right when I got 500 pts lol…
This has been a long time coming. The outraged commenters need to chill the eff out. Save your outrage for something that actually matters.
This is really not surprising. Uber just announced a hiring freeze. You really think that they won’t cut cost?
They’ll push their self-driving cars even sooner
What are you talking about. Uber sold their self-driving division years ago
💩
So in other words, they STILL haven’t figured out how to make a profit as a rideshare company…
I loathe them and their awful customer service so much. Really hope Amex switches the monthly credits to a less-sleazy company at some point.
Off topic: there is an intersection near my home where cars on one road can only turn left/right into the “main road” but not go straight to stay on the road, same from the other direction. Although Google Maps always gives the correct directions, Uber directs drivers to drive straight, which is very dangerous — they could hit drivers who are turn lefting from the other side. Many times I have explained to confused drivers or need to warn drivers that they should take a detour instead of going straight.
I have contacted Uber customer service, and I was told that “someone would contact me”, and nothing ever happened after that. I don’t know what is going on, but to me it looks like Uber could not care less about the safety of their drivers and passengers.
I hate this business so much. I only use for the Amex credit and counting the days where Amex will send an email saying this benefit is being replaced with something else.
Mine still shows redemption for $5 uber cash. I also converted 500 points to uber cash yesterday.
Of course I didn’t bother to redeem the points when I had the chance earlier since I barely pay attention to my Uber rewards.
I never got to 500 points yet.
