   So Uber ToS requires you to accept arbitration, then, when they are found responsible for damages, they still don’t want to pay. Seems pretty shitty for the consumer.

      I don't think there's anything to suggest Uber refused to pay the arbitration award? They just stated that they disagreed with the outcome.

      (Which is not to say there's not plenty to dislike about this whole case, including the fact it's forced arbitration...)

         Moreso it’s them whining about losing when and trying to add a non-disparagement clause at $10m per event to the settlement for even factual information relating to the case.

         Uber were the ones who forced arbitration ostensibly because it often lowers their overall legal and damages bills.
