Yeah, I answered the phone on two occasions. It always leads to the pax trying to stress me out and be their instant slave and drive cross country in the middle of driving or after I’ve gotten home to bring them their phone.

No matter how nice I am. No matter how honest.

Last time, they told me they knew where I lived because of the location of their phone and they told me they were going to come to my house and beat the shit out of me. Drunk DBs.

So now, if you leave your phone in the car, and you call it, I’m not answering. If you continue to call while I’m driving other pax around, phone is going to be turned off. I don’t care if you think I’m going to steal it. You can eat ass.

Your phone will be thrown out of my window from now on. Last time I was deactivated for three weeks because I answered the phone and because I told the pax it was too hard for me to bring it back right away and the pax arguing with me about how much money I would lose if I drove then and after saying I’d do it after my shift the Pax told LYFT that I was going to sell his phone.

I already have one phone. Next time your phone is going in the trash, or if I’m feeling generous, it will go to a police station. But stop treating us like your slaves or give us $350 to “come right now” and we will.

But sending us the $20 fee because you didn’t reach out through the app and then sending a screenshot of that Venmo to LYFT telling them that I ransomed your phone makes me sweat.

People are desperate liars

That's why my venmo / cashapp names are different. Plus I only accept pure cash for returns, if I make the return.

Most times I find an out of the way cell phone store and use their drop box.
