UBER: Rides credits from Uber

Uber is providing $40 ride credits to Chicagoans. After a Chicago resident books an appointment via Zocdoc, they will receive an appointment confirmation email which will also ask if they need transportation to their visit. If they answer yes, they’ll receive ride credits from Uber which will work only for rides to and from the United Center within the Chicago city limits.
