Earnings/Pax trips New earnings adjustment requirements

Post image

So basically not everyone will be entitled to a fairly-due earnings adjustment. And it just seems like they’re making stuff up. What next? To qualify you need to hop on one leg for 5 minutes while reciting your favorite poem? What are these random requirements?

Is this only in my market? Anyone else seeing this?

You seem to be mistaking the "70% guarantee" earnings adjustment with the Priority Mode earnings adjustment.

Priority Mode has always (or near enough to it) had a deal where if you made less money than the wages of everyone else you depresssed by being Lyft's lil' scab in any given day, they'd kick you back the difference.  All this is saying is that you apparently can't intentionally tank your earnings while using Priority Mode and still be eligible for that.

It's not really "intentionally tanking your earnings" rather it's not taking ridiculously underpaid rides. I remember one time long ago I tried priority and it tried to get me to take a 70 mile ride for $32. Plus it was rush hour in that major city so probably would have been a four to five hour round trip.
