Uber is trying to grow it's User and Business.
But it's really bad to see that such a big company didn't have a proper testing of there web-portal and Mobile Apps.
I have started using Uber and Ola from around 1 month back.
And, when I started using there service, I found that lot of Bugs are there in Uber. They have not taken care about there different fields in there system.
Also the integration of web-portal and Mobile App is too bad, which gives users to manipulate the database and create lot of accounts with single phone number and email-account.
Yes, It is possible to have multiple Uber accounts from one single Email-id and phone number.
And, Wolla, once you have multiple accounts, then you can have multiple free rides. Unlimited free rides !!!
And, each ride is worth of upto 600 INR.
:- Please note, this blog is not supposed to hack Uber. This is just to aware the Uber guys about flaws in there system.
I am not disclosing the exact procedure to have multiple accounts. Because that may be illegal. So, lets Uber guys fixed this and then I will post all the steps.
But yes, it is possible and I tested very well.

In the last few months after publishing this post many people asked me about the trick. So, I decided lets share with all , and also these tricks can be applied on other APPs also, but you need to keep on trying on new apps and take benefit before Mobile App developers fixes them.
So, here is the basic mantra :-
What you need generally in any mobile app :-
1) A new Email Id
2) A new phone number
3) A new phone, if APP tracks IMEI number. [All apps do not track IMEI, previously Uber also didn't, now I am not sure]
For Email id :-
If you have a gmail id, then you already have multiple pseudo gmail username, by using "+" and "."
For example, my email id is - nitinagarwal949@gmail.com
if you send mail to - nitinagarwal949+new@gmail.com,
nitinagarwal949+test@gmail.com , nitin.agar.wa.l949@gmail.com, it's all same for gmail, and it will come to my user id. So Uber considered all emails as different, but it was actually same.
Phone Number :-
Having a International app like Uber, provides you an option to select country code. So trick was to use APP with your actual number, then go to profile, change country code. Your actual number will get free and you can register back.
IMEI track :-
Uber didn't had previously IMEI tracking, now I am not sure.
If that is the case with app, then further road is not easy. Either you have to root your phone and change everytime IMEI number. Or, you can use Bluestack [which I prefer], to create virtual android environment on Windows Laptop and play with apps.
I hope you got some idea to fool around some new apps and take benefits from offers.
