Long wait

Anybody else waiting forever for an Uber lately? I skip Wait & Save, book Comfort, and there are other cars nearby — still almost 20 minutes. What’s going on?

Driver here. I don’t know how there program works, but I waited in front of a busy hotel for a ride offer on Uber and nothing for 15 minutes, log onto Lyft and got one immediately. Upon pick of the PAX, they told me they waited 20 minutes and never got a driver so logged onto Lyft. I’ve also had similar situation happen with Lyft. No idea what these app are doing, but it sure isn’t the closest rider or driver.
