(SPOT.ph) After passing through some serious hoops--an initial P5-million fine, one-month suspension, denial of a motion for reconsideration, another P190-million one, then online proof of financial assistance for drivers, Uber is finally back as of today, August 29 at 5 p.m.

This comes after the transport network company issued a P190-million cheque to the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board in lieu of a suspension ordered on August 14. It was a grueling 14-day period for both drivers and commuters, and we're just happy that it's all over (Uber?)...for now. The rest of the Internet feels the same way, too.
@Uber_PH, naghintay nga ako sa pag-ibig ng pagkatagal-tagal; iyong 2 weeks pa kaya na wala ka... pero salamat nagbalik ka kaagad! Love you!

We can just wonder.
Now Grab is cheaper than Uber. Nawala, bumalik, nagmahal ???? #UBERisBACK
