In NY they are now adding a 2.5% NY State Black Car Fund tax to tips. And for some reason, their computers are having a really hard time figuring out how to display it on the receipt. My wife had a ride last week where she tipped $3.76. She was correctly charged another $.09 for the Black Car Fund (2.5% of $3.76). But only the PDF version of the receipt that is downloadable from uber.com correctly showed the BCF charge as $.09. All other versions of the receipt that I looked up showed the correct total charge for the ride, but the line items didn't add up: the e-mail receipt showed a $.27 BCF tax on the tip, the uber.com website trip history showed $.63, and the app trip history didn't show a BCF tax on the tip at all. Really strange. And this could cause problems if employers audit receipts and the line items don't add up to equal the total.

You'd think that with the amount of money Uber spends on tech, they'd figure out how to display all the line items on a receipt consistently.
