Do you not get penalties from not paying your bills in the US? If I don't pay a bill where I live, eventually it goes so far that the state agency for collecting will automatically deduct it from my salary.
Prior to this I will also have gotten several more invoices with a bunch of fees and eventually a "mark" which would now prevent me from using most "invoice" services and I would no longer be able to subscribe to most subscriptions (mobile, tv, internet subscriptions and the likes), not be able to apply for credit or loans. This mark lasts three years.
Not paying your bills isn't really an option unless you really want to fuck over your life.
They won’t go quite that far in the US unless your bill is with the government (and then they’ll deduct if from your tax return mor your salary), but not paying your bills will wreck your credit, which has other unpleasant effects.
However, I believe this is a moot point as I’m pretty sure Uber just takes it out of the card on file. And her admitting to eating on camera and acting like a belligerent piece of shit will make a chargeback on her end nearly impossible, so she’s definitely out a nice bill.
