Dont rate poorly due to the companies views
Overall, Uber is great. While there are some things that could be improved, its a safe ride home. In terms of the price surges; the price doesnt raise just because there is an event. The price raises due to demand. If you have 5 drivers on the road, and 50 people are requesting ubers, a surge goes into effect to entice other drivers to get on the road. More drivers=shorter wait times. If there was no surge, those same 5 drivers would remain on the road, and it would take hours to get home. Think about cabs after a concert. If you cant afford to pay more for a ride after a large event, have someone pick you up or stay sober and drive home. Or, alternatively, wait an hour or more for a cab.
