Uber Record your rides for shared peace of mind

 Record your rides for shared peace of mind

We’ve heard from riders that they feel more confident knowing a trip is recorded. It sets a professional tone and encourages respectful behavior for everyone in the car.*

Your Record My Ride questions, answered:

How does recording work?

Your phone works like a built-in dashcam— no extra cost, setup or hardware needed

When does recording start and stop?

Recording only happens during trips, so off-trip conversations are never recorded.

Will my phone calls be recorded?

No. Recording pauses automatically if you receive a call, so personal conversations are never captured.

Is Uber listening as the recording is happening?

Nope, the recording is encrypted and Uber cannot listen to or watch the recording unless it is attached to a safety report.

Do riders know I’m recording?

Yes, riders are notified before the trip starts when recording is on, which can help encourage more positive interactions.

changes to how wire transfers and ACH (external bank transfers)

 This is a service update email from Bank of America explaining changes to how wire transfers and ACH (external bank transfers) will work in their Mobile and Online Banking system starting in July.

Here’s the simple breakdown:

What is changing (temporary limitations)

During the upgrade period:

• ❌ You cannot set up recurring wire or ACH transfers
  (no repeating monthly/weekly transfers)
• ❌ You cannot schedule future-dated transfers
  (everything must be sent “now” / same-day only)
• ⚠️ You can still do one-time transfers, but they must be immediate

So basically: fewer scheduling features temporarily.

---

What will still work

• ✔ One-time wire transfers
• ✔ One-time ACH transfers to other banks
• ✔ Sending money to your own external accounts or someone else’s

---

What they are improving

After the upgrade, they will add:

• 📊 Better transfer tracking (see status after sending money)
• 📜 18 months of transfer history in the app
• 📱 Easier ACH transfers through Mobile Banking (more user-friendly system)

---

Recipient list transfer

• People/accounts you’ve paid in the last 24 months will be moved automatically
• If something is missing or incorrect, you’ll need to re-add them manually

---

Important warning (practical impact)

If you:

• already scheduled recurring transfers, or
• set up future-dated payments before the upgrade,

they may delay or disrupt your transition, so they are warning you ahead of time.

---

What you should do

If you use this bank for transfers:

• Set up any important recurring payments before the change
• Don’t rely on future scheduling during the transition period
• Double-check your saved recipients after the update

---

Bottom line

Bank of America is upgrading its transfer system.
For a short period, they’re removing scheduling features, but in return you’ll get better tracking, history, and a more modern transfer system later.
