Title: Uber integrates in-app national helpline number
Post by: Raihana Zannat on August 09, 2017, 12:10:04 PM

Uber, the world's largest on-demand ride-sharing company, recently announced the integration of the nationwide emergency number 999 in its rider app to enhance rider safety.

In a reinforcement of Uber's commitment towards safety of riders, Uber integrated the government's helpline number in the app, which would prompt riders to dial 999 in case of an emergency,

In the event of an emergency situation during a ride, riders in an Uber can now access an in-app card and press 'Call Now' to connect to the toll-free national help desk run by the ICT division of Bangladesh. Once pressed, the rider will be prompted with 999 in their phone dialer. Calling 999 will connect the rider to the government's control room where depending on the nature of the emergency situation, a caller can select '1' for Ambulance, '2' for fire service, '3' for Police, or '0' to speak directly with a government agent.
