    Their moto should be "Driven by students, for students"

      Drive now, study later

        This guy knows marketing

      • drive now, pay later

      • From most uber drivers I’ve ran into. Study first then transition onto uber. Bloody hard for some international students to land a job

        • Suspect it is the language/cultural barrier. Students from Europe and the US seem to be fine with getting a job.

      • Uber to your parents house now, live in your parents basement later

      • Overwork now, get investigated at the airport later.

      Driven by "students" who are "enrolled" in "colleges".

      • Hahahah spot on.

    • "Drive now, get minimum pay"

      Saw on facebook about a student visa got cancelled being a Uber driver LOL

      He drove up to 42hours per week though….

      • In the image you sent it said he was driving 50-60hrs per week during March & April which is kinda odd since the table just below that paragraph has different numbers.

  • Not sure why this was ended

    Also the previous comments are invalid - I got student pricing just with my uni email address from a few years ago and I've been an uber one member including free trials before.

    • Repost it

      I can't access unidays cos they don't accept alumni email I have access to.

      • I have been able to get on uni days using a primary school email, when it asks what school I'm enrolled I just pick a random one and it somehow gets approved.

    It isn't accepting tafe email - then uploaded library card for tafe, not sure if they would accept that.. But then will try with email again, the process seems to be broken. Getting "Oops, something went wrong"

    • Mines says "already verified" but it won't let me sign up for the student price with TAFE email either.

  • can i convert my existing uber account to student if i have a student email ?
    or does it have to be a new account ? I don't have another number

    Edit: Nvm. i figured.

    • @XedeX did it work?

      • it did for me.. i had a valid student email. My uni gives a lifetime email address if you are an alumni.

        • Same here life long email and previous commbank uber one and still got it

    • did you end up needing to make a new account with a student email? or is there a way to link it?

      • no.. don't need to make a new account. I just logged in to my uber account (i didn't have an uber one subscription) went on to sign up uber one tab and it gives you an option to signup via student discount. It will ask you to verify student credentials though. Mine got verified through student email.

        • When you signed up, was there a way to do $3 monthly instead of the whole year?

          • +1

            @CodeXD: Nope.. only $7 monthly or $36 for the whole year

    • @XedeX - I have a Uber one account where I haven’t used my student id to sign up

      How do I verify my status. Thanks

      • not sure how you can switch your current uber one to student uber one. I think you might need to cancel or end the current uber one subscription before you can sign up with student. I am not a 100% though as i didn't have an uber one subscription before i signed up to student offer.

  • The real ozb question is, how do you get a student email if not a student?

      Ask your nephews and nieces

      • Uncle Roger approves

        • Fuyoh, nephew Homr and niece devpress know the drill.

      You can withdraw after you've gotten your email address. Not sure how long work for though.

  • Worked for me as a university staff member.

  • how can i get a student email..

    • Go and study something is the only way, pretty sure short courses at TAFE and uni don’t give u one, anyone have experience from this?

    • Free TAFE program through vic gov - i did a diploma, got a student email/card, can get tertiary myki also

      • Computing whether worth effort for two days a week in office

        • took me about 2 hours worth of effort for a few hundred dollars savings, worth imo

    Are the deals any different for students? Could be exempt from comps or giveaways?

    Gen Z'ers: Why can't I afford to move out? Even rent is too expensive now.
    Also Gen Z'ers: What we ordering off Uber tonight boyssssssss let's place ladbrokes bets on that obscure sport we watch on kayo. When's the new Reacher dropping? Life is sweeeeeeeet

    • Some, but not all.

      When I was in uni, I didn't live like a peasant, but did work two jobs to sustain the lifestyle.

  • Does it work with any educational center? I cannot find mine :/

  • I have a valid student email but it doesn't work. First it said couldn't be verified. Later I emailed and verification completed but still can't join uber one.

  • It's verified by sheerid, just having a student email isn't enough. Didn't work for me, presumably because it can see alumni status.

    • Answers my question then, have a Uni email but graduated.
