Trying to cancel

Uber

? We’ll help you do it properly.

Yes, Uber gives you flexible cancellation options across rides, Uber Eats, and subscriptions:

• 🚗 Uber Rides: Cancel anytime, but to avoid a cancellation fee, cancel within the grace period (usually 2 minutes for UberX, 5 minutes for premium rides). No-show fees apply if you don’t show up.
  
  
• 🍔 Uber Eats: Cancel in-app, but full refunds are only guaranteed if the restaurant hasn’t accepted yet. Once accepted, you may still be charged.
  
  
• 🏷️ Uber One: Cancel anytime via app or web with no cancellation fee. Just cancel 48 hours before your renewal to avoid the next charge.
  
  

Timing matters. Most Uber cancellations are self-serve, but charges depend on when you act.

Here’s how to cancel each Uber service:

Cancel a Ride:

1. Open Uber app → Tap your trip.
   
   
2. Tap Cancel Trip.
   
   
3. Confirm. The app shows if a fee applies.
   
   
4. Fee charged? Request a refund under Help → Trip Issues.
   
   

Cancel an Uber Eats Order:

1. Open Uber Eats app → Go to Active Orders.
   
   
2. Tap Cancel Order.
   
   
3. The app will warn you of any fees.
   
   
4. Confirm. View your refund/charges under Order History.
   
   

Cancel Uber One Membership:

1. Uber app → Account → Uber One.
   
   
2. Tap Manage Membership → “End” or “Cancel.”
   
   
3. Confirm cancellation. If within 48 hours of renewal, contact Uber support to cancel manually.
   
   

Pro tip: Use app support to keep a record. Some cancellations are time-sensitive, so act fast.

• ⏱️ Uber Rides: Cancel anytime, but fees apply after 2–5 mins. No hard deadline, but earlier = no fee.
  
  
• 🍱 Uber Eats: Cancel before the restaurant accepts for a full refund. Once accepted, you may pay full price.
  
  
• 🧾 Uber One: Cancel 48+ hours before renewal to avoid next charge. Cancel mid-month and keep perks till month end.
  
  

🧠 Key: Cancellations are instant, but fees and refunds depend on timing.

Here’s what you might be charged:

• 🚘 Ride cancellation fee: ~AUD $10 if you cancel late or no-show. Displayed at time of cancellation.
  
  
• 🍔 Uber Eats: Cancel early = no charge. Cancel after restaurant accepts = you pay for the food.
  
  
• 💳 Uber One: No fee to cancel. But no refund if you’ve already paid for the month/year—unless you just renewed.
  
  

🔁 Most charges are flat fees or based on your order/ride. Refunds and waivers are available if you act quickly or the service fails.
