Uber Egypt will open, next Tuesday, a new regional customer service centre service that will serve its drivers and customers in the Middle East and Egypt. The opening ceremony will be attended by Pierre Dimitri, Uber’s Vice President and Head of Operations of Europe, Middle East, and Africa. The number of drivers working with Uber in Egypt amounted to 50,000, of which about 40% were unemployed prior to joining Uber. The ride-hailing company, Uber, had decided to amend its tariff, following the hike in fuel prices at the end of June. The company also increased the tariff per km to EGP 1.85 for UberX and EGP 2 for Uber Select.
