Uber Customer Service Rep Changes Woman’s Name To ‘Bitch’ After She Complains
HuffPo ^ | 9/5/2017 | Ryan Grenoble

UberEats: Where they cancel your order after making you wait an hour and a half, then change your name to “Bitch” when you complain.

Nope, that’s not the tagline for the worst “Shark Tank” pitch in history. That’s what actually happened to Caitlin Reardon after she placed an order for burritos.

The 25-year-old San Francisco resident told HuffPost she and her roommate ordered some Mission-style burritos for out-of-town visitors on Monday night, but grew frustrated after more than an hour of waiting.

So she did what any normal person would do, and called UberEats to see why her order had been delayed. Turns out the delivery service had canceled her order because no drivers were willing to pick it up, even though the app still showed that her food was being prepared.

UberEats suggested she try ordering again, but (snip) Reardon went with another delivery service.(snip)

Reardon provided HuffPost with a copy of her complaint to Uber:(snip)

The next day, Reardon received a reply: “Hi Bitch,” it began.

In response to her complaint, someone with access to Reardon’s Uber account had apparently changed her name on the app to “Bitch.”

“I was shocked when I opened my email to see the ‘Hi Bitch’ greeting,” Reardon said. “At first, I honestly thought, did I cross a line? But then I thought no, companies do not have the right to treat you this way regardless of what you may have said.”

Adding insult to injury, she’d ordered an Uber for her sister minutes earlier so she could get to work. That meant her sister would get a ride from a driver who would call her “Bitch,” mistakenly believing that was her actual first name.

“I am just so upset” Reardon told HuffPost. “This was the last straw.”

Looks like that bitch needs to get off her ass and lose some weight instead of just having more food delivered to her door.

I dunno. This seems pretty funny. If I got a rely like that after being obnoxious with a customer service rep, I'd probably laugh.

I’ve heard of “Dear John” letters, but “Hi Bitch” letters really take the cake!

Why she should lose weight? She is among 70% of adult Americans who are overweight! She is the majority.

Many years ago, I saw a comedian who said he was going to invent a cereal, and instead of Nut'n' Honey, he was going to call it Nut'n' Bitch.

Whatcha eatin', Dear?
Nut'n' Bitch.

“She is among 70% of adult Americans who are overweight! She is the majority.”

A significant factor in conservative guys going ‘off-shore’ to find wives - although not the top factor.

Uber Bitch

Sounds like a bad 70’s movie you’d see at a drive-in with your friends and a case of beer.
