How to Cancel or Delete Your Uber Account

Posted on 09/11/26 03:13 pm

Delete Uber in the app: Account › Settings › Privacy › Delete your account. Uber deactivates it at once and deletes it after 30 days.

Steps in the Uber app

  1. Open Uber and tap Account.
  2. Go to Settings › Privacy.
  3. Choose Delete your account.
  4. Confirm with your password or a code, and give a reason if asked.

You can also start deletion on Uber's website from the privacy or help section, while signed in.

What happens next

Right awayThe account is deactivated
Within 30 daysSigning in again cancels the deletion
After 30 daysThe account is deleted; some records may be kept as required by law

Before you delete

  • Clear any unpaid trip balance, or deletion may be blocked.
  • Use or cash out Uber Cash and gift card balance if you can.
  • Cancel Uber One membership.
  • Download your trip data from the privacy settings if you want records.

Uber Eats and drivers

Uber Eats uses the same account, so deleting Uber removes Eats too. Driver and courier accounts may need extra steps through the driver app or support.

Just want fewer messages?

If marketing texts and emails are the problem, you can turn them off in Settings › Privacy › Notifications without deleting the account.

Blocked rather than deleted

If Uber blocked your account, deletion is not the fix. See Uber account blocked.

Signing up again later

After the 30 days are over, you can create a new Uber account with the same phone number and email. Trip history, ratings and saved places from the old account will not come back. If you change your mind before then, simply sign in again to cancel the deletion.

If deletion fails

  • Check for unpaid trips or an open dispute in the Wallet section.
  • Update the app, then try again.
  • Use the Help section in the app and choose the account and data option to ask Uber to delete the account for you.
