An Uber user in Noida experienced a similar situation when he received a bill worth crores after a seemingly routine auto ride. In the early hours of Friday, Deepak Tenguriya booked an auto ride through Uber India, expecting a fare of just ₹ 62.
However, after Mr Deepak reached his location, he received a hefty bill of ₹ 7.66 crore on his app, even without the driver ending the ride. The incident came to light after Mr Deepak's friend Ashish Mishra on Friday shared a clip of X (formerly Twitter). In the video, the two can be heard discussing the huge bill that Mr Deepak has received.
The official X page of Uber India Customer Support issued an apology and claimed that they were looking into the matter.
