DoNotPay helps you navigate the often difficult task of canceling your Lyft driver application.

Whether the application process is much more detailed than you thought or Lyft has informed you that your application is on hold for the time being, canceling your application should be as easy as starting it. Unfortunately, that isn't always the case. Fortunately, DoNotPay is here to remove some of the frustration involved in canceling your Lyft driver application.

Reasons You May Need to Cancel Your Lyft Driver Application

There are multiple steps to the Lyft driver application, including:

1. Creating a Lyft driver account
2. Basic personal information
3. Providing documentation (such as insurance, copy of driver's license, etc.)
4. Vehicle Inspection
5. Background check

At any point in the application process, you may decide it's no longer a good option for you. Circumstances can change, and so can perceptions of the opportunity to proceed with the application. Some of those reasons for hesitation in continuing your Lyft driver application may include:

• Too much personal information is needed
• Lack of access to required documentation
• Vehicle inspection concerns
• Past background issues
• Another opportunity has come up

Whatever your reasons for wanting to cancel your Lyft driver application, the process to cancel should be as easy as it is to start. That's not usually the case. So, what are the options for canceling your Lyft driver application?

Things to Know Before Canceling Your Lyft Driver Application

There are a few different ways to go about canceling your Lyft driver application. However, there are a few things you should know or do before moving forward with your canceling your Lyft driver application.

Check Your Application Status

If you are canceling your application because it's been a while and you are uncertain of your application status, you can check your application status by visiting the Lyft application site and signing into your Lyft driver account with your phone number.

From there, you can verify your account status and any missing or problem areas and decide whether or not to move forward with your application cancellation. This can prevent canceling an application due to an easily resolvable but unknown issue.

Your Cancellation Is Irrevocable

If you cancel your Lyft driver application and change your mind, you'll need to establish a new Lyft driver account and complete each step of the process over again. Simply reactivating your application isn't an option.

Your Data Is Retained Upon Cancellation

While Lyft is adamant about the security of its privacy policy, make sure you read its policy carefully and understand what data is left behind when you cancel your Lyft driver application.

How to Cancel Your Lyft Driver Application

Once you have decided to cancel your Lyft driver application, there are three ways to proceed with the cancellation process. These options for driver application cancellation are permanent and will delete your account both as a rider and a driver. You can't reactivate a deleted account. However, you can start a new account.

To delete your Lyft driver account from the app:

1. Navigate to Lyft app.
2. Sign in.
3. Locate the three bars and choose the "Help" option.
4. Click "Profile and account settings."
5. Tap "Delete My Account."
6. A confirmation message will appear.

To delete your Lyft driver account from Lyft's website:

1. Navigate to the Lyft website.
2. Choose "I'm a passenger or driver."
3. Select "Profile and Account Settings."
4. Click "Delete My Account."

To delete your Lyft driver account through Lyft Support:

2. Log in.
3. Choose "Contact Support"
4. Select "I'm a driver."
5. Click on "Profile and account settings."
6. Select "Delete my account."

Lyft doesn't currently offer an option for deleting your Lyft driver application without deleting your Lyft account. Regardless of the option you choose, it could take as long as 45 days for Lyft to delete your account. You can continue to check your driver application status and use your account as a rider during this time.

If the entire process leaves you paralyzed with indecision about what option to choose and how to move forward, there is another option that's faster, easier, and more successful. DoNotPay is here to help.
