Question 1

What is the UBER* charge on my bank statement?

Accepted Answer

The UBER* charge on your bank statement is a legitimate charge from Uber. It typically represents either an Uber ride you took or an Uber Eats food delivery order. These charges commonly appear around $15.00 but can vary depending on your trip distance or order total. If you use both Uber and Uber Eats, check your activity in both services to match the charge to a specific transaction.

Question 2

I don't remember taking an Uber ride — could this $15 charge be fraud?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. The UBER* charge could also be from Uber Eats if you ordered food delivery, not just a ride. Before assuming fraud, log into your Uber account and review your trip and order history to see if a recent transaction matches the amount. If you still do not recognize the charge after reviewing your history, you can visit uber.com/account to secure your account or dispute the transaction through Uber's support team.

Question 3

How do I cancel my Uber subscription to stop these charges?

Accepted Answer

If you are seeing recurring UBER* charges, you may be subscribed to Uber One, which is Uber's membership program that offers discounts on rides and Uber Eats orders. To cancel your Uber One membership and stop future charges, go to uber.com/account and navigate to the Uber One section under your account settings. Keep in mind that one-time ride or Uber Eats charges will still appear as UBER* even without a subscription, so canceling the membership will only stop the recurring membership fee.

Question 4

Why does my bank statement show UBER* instead of just Uber?

Accepted Answer

Banks and credit card companies display merchant charges using a standardized billing descriptor format, which is why you see UBER* rather than the full company name. The asterisk is commonly used by Uber to prefix their charge descriptions on statements. This is a normal and legitimate way Uber charges appear, and it may be followed by additional text like EATS or a city name depending on the type of service used. If the charge is around $15.00 and you have used Uber rides or Uber Eats recently, this is almost certainly a valid charge from Uber.
