Uber is an American digital ride-sharing and ride-hailing company. Clients can become drivers for Uber or can use the Uber app to hail a private car to drive them to their destination. Uber was founded in 2009 as UberCab before switching to Uber in 2011. The company operates in over 785 metropolitan areas worldwide.

Review Uber Help Forum

If you're having difficulties making these changes online, you can look through the Uber help forum. Uber doesn't have a customer care line or live chat function you can reach out to, so this is your only mode of help. Most likely, someone else has experienced a similar problem and will be able to offer a solution.
