"reasonable probability"? That's false information! I'm sorry your CC info was compromised around the time you signed up for Uber but I assure you it has nothing to do with Uber or Lyft. Those companies have a legal responsibility to have a secure CC data storage system. Uber (alone) does over 30 million rides per day, there's no way you can do that volume and not have a secure system.

My advice is to have a youngster teach you how to use both (Uber & Lyft) apps and always check how much a ride costs on both apps that way you can be sure you have the best deal.
It's super easy - Good luck!
