Is it possible that you also went out of the coverage area during your ride? I don't see how they can not credit you of it was totally in the five boroughs. Says nothing in the terms about that

Nope. Went to Far Rockaway which is in the Queens which is one of the five.. Here is the part I cutout. Seems like they have their own custom boundary. I just sent them back a nice long reply. I will post back when I hear.

Unfortunately, the destination location for this recent trip is just outside of the east-side (Bayswater Park) designated boundary.

A bit ridiculous to not announce what those boundaries are..   >:(

I think it's an instant ban from Uber. I'd imagine they'll refund if you push back a little

went to pick my parents up from the airport last night. We both have primary plat cards and both received a promo-card (after requesting). our Uber SUV to Crown Heights was reduced from $101 to $0.

Status Update. Just got a email from Uber that they refunded the full amount and my ride was free.

Mission Accomplished.

DoC visits DDF quite a bit.

Not that much recently as I haven't had time, and I'm somewhat selective about what I do/don't share so as to not anger the community too much (and I like to think I've contributed a deal or two here and there as well). Although that roundup was from Chuck not me. Anybody have any data points on these mysterious boundaries Uber is imposing?

They claim there is no limits in the five boroughs, and for some reason it got picked up by the system as not located in the 5 boroughs when it actually was

Correct. They claim anywhere in the five boroughs is allowed and according to Uber it seemed as if it was out. After the Centurion Lounge reviewed it and spoke to Uber they realized it was allowed.

Any data points on getting dropped off in NJ ("stopover") and ending ride somewhere in the city? I plan on trying this out this week and I wonder if I will be the first one...

Has anyone gotten a second card on a second visit?  I'll be making my second arrival there tomorrow morning and want to try for two.

Was considering doing this, but didn't want to take the risk, especially since Amex/Uber made a great promotion as it is. Ended up forking over $130 for an uber from LGA :(. Well, my company did.

I actually need to go from LGA to NJ tomorrow morning.  I want to try the trick but I'm scared that it's going to cost me a fortune.

Would still be super expensive if the experiment fails.
