>Say what you will about Uber, but no Uber driver has ever tried to lie and harass a passenger over whether or not the credit card machine is broken in an effort to cheat on their taxes.

This actually did happen to me. When I was in Hyderabad, I took an Uber from my company's office to the airport, and the driver said his phone died right after picking me up, so I had to pay cash.

Uber is almost always cash in cities I’ve visited in India. Some take UPI too but it’s hard to use that as a foreigner.

Yeah, it's a real thing that happened to me, to. In multiple US cities. And I'm sure we're far from alone.
