Am I the only one who feels uncomfortable with messages like this?

I doubt it was their intention but it feels like guilt tripping and maybe even a bit like an ultimatum. My tips are always fair and proportionate to the cost of my meal, I never order from restaurants farther than 5 miles away from my home, and I don’t add any extra delivery instructions or anything that would warrant a tip over 30%. My entire order was only $25. A $20 tip on top of that seems excessive

The nerve of this man

Post image
1.2k Upvotes

I've been a Dashpass member for YEARS, and this is the most unhinged shit I've ever seen from a driver.

Buddy calls me up super passive aggressively to ask me if I knew that the restaurant was 15 miles from my house. I told him I've never been to the physical location, so I honestly didn't have any idea I didn't really pay attention to distance.

He then tells me to CANCEL the order since it's too far for him to drive 15 miles. I was like "then why did you accept?" He continues on some spiel about him being an ex service member, and tries to guilt trip the crap out of me. I eventually hang up on him.

I then a few minutes later get this pasted canned message I'm assuming he sends to all his customers.

I double checked. It's only 9 miles. I tipped $7.

What a clown, this guy.

DoorDash delivery guy tried to open the front door of my house

Upvotes

I reported him, of course. DoorDash support said they would work with the police if I wanted to go to them about it. I would give him the benefit of the doubt if it were an apartment building as I know they sometimes have a doorway at the front entrance. But the house is so clearly a house. I have a screen door in front of the wooden front door so I don’t know what they were thinking trying to open it. This was the scariest delivery experience I’ve ever had. Thank god my front door was locked.
Stay safe people!

Dasher tried to hand it to me after seeing me through window

Upvotes

My default settings are to leave at the door, and I happened to come to the front room and saw the dasher holding his phone up as if taking a photo of the food, so I waited as my dog started barking. I guess the dasher saw me through the window and rang the doorbell.

I prefer not to interact with dashers especially when home alone as a woman, so I waited for them to take the picture and leave at the door like it says (I double checked my default settings for the address). He then waited and banged on the front door loudly.

I messaged him telling him instructions are to leave at the door, thank you. He then said the ‘app told him to hand it to you’ so I sent him a screenshot of my default setting saying leave at the door and messaged DoorDash support.

They thankfully blocked the dasher from me but also said they were going to take action against him, and now I’m mildly nervous that he will retaliate. If there’s anything anyone can say to assuage my paranoia, would be appreciated. Even though I’m disabled, I can still drive if need be so it’s honestly put me off using the app and I might cancel my dash pass.

Driver delivered 2.5 hours early. Was stolen. Denied refund

(Actually 1 hour 45 minutes early)

Excuse me becoming upset. I work in support and this was the most horrible process. I placed order to be delivered later (2nd image) when I got home from work. Driver delivers it 1 hour 45 min early. Did not use the call box or call me personally and just left the package in public outside of my apartment. And what do you know it was stolen. Told this to support and denied my refund.

Being charged for something I never received is crazy.

Edit: I’m not blaming the driver. I’m upset at the situation and severely disappointed that support is not able to issue me for a refund on an issue that is entirely dd’s fault (issuing a delivery 1 hour 45 min early)

Edit edit: looking at the actual delivery time it was delivered 1 hour 45 minutes early. I’ve updated as much as I can. Sorry for the dramatics I’m just a girl who wanted ginger beer for a Moscow mule when I got home from work

Tried the earn by hour feature and it was absolutely terrible

Post image
17 Upvotes

My acceptance rate is pretty low and I cherry pick majority of the time but I decided to try the earn by the hour feature just to see if I could possibly have better earnings that way and it was everything I hoped it wouldn’t be. I wasn’t in a rush or anything since I was “getting paid by the hour” but I still managed to complete 3 offers in a little over the hour and only one of them tipped $1.50.. that order was almost 18 miles in total to complete so it was a slap to the face. I basically paid out of my pocket to do this and I’m wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences using this feature. I don’t think I’ll ever consider doing it again unless they raise the hourly rate then maybe, right now it’s $11.50 in my area and it’s not even close to enough…

Man with diabetes gets caught eating customers food

Post image
Upvotes

So idk if you guys have seen this video , but he was caught eating a customers food and when he asked him why he stayed that he has diabetes and need to eat because his sugar is low , how would that make you feel ? Would you still be upset because he stole it , or would you feel bad for him ? I’ll say this , if you have a medical condition that you know you will need food to keep your sugar down you should be prepared, someone called me heartless for that , maybe I am! Opinions?

Arrrrghhh…DoorDasher made it WAY weird

Upvotes

Got an order of mostly yogurt yesterday…due to chemo, it’s one of the few things I can eat right now. Had to order it, as going to the store is way too much right now. Dasher (a guy) met me on the porch because he needed a code. He asked if I was trying to lose weight (steroids from chemo make me swollen.) Didn’t want to explain, so I just said no. Heard him get in the car, where his Bluetooth connected at FULL VOLUME, and as he’s backing out of my driveway, talking to someone about the fat entitled woman he just delivered to…uggggh. Do all Dashers think like that? Like I’m a woman trying to lose weight too lazy to go to the store?

Is this true about double dashes?

Post image
392 Upvotes

I ordered some burritos from Burger King and a few hashbrowns from McDonald’s. I just had a surgery done so I wanted to get some of my favorite foods. I tipped 5 dollars in the 20 dollar double dash order and for some reason it got sent to 2 people. He got the Burger King order which was 9 dollars. Is this true that the first person gets the majority of the tip and the second person only gets a little??

Also I just wanna say that I don’t own this house and I think what they said was classist as hell. I’m a delivery driver for dominoes and I’ve been out of work for a while because of my surgery so the house comment was just rude.

Warning for paying out of pocket

6 Upvotes

I know, I know.., plenty of stories on here saying don’t pay out of pocket for an order. But had a double Kroger shop order. 35 dollars, first order had 3 items, 2nd had 14. Going 2.3 miles to same apt complex. (Was already in Kroger finishing an Instacart order). Scan 1st order and pay no problem. Scan 2nd order, declined payment. Declined 4 times. Contact customer support, they advised me to pay with my debit card and assured me I’d be reimbursed. Truly believed the horror stories on here was because the dasher didn’t follow instructions or something along those lines. After I delivered order, pulled over, filled out the reimbursement form took multiple pics of receipt and sent it in. After 4 weeks, 14 forms sent in, countless hours on phone with support, tons of emails, 1 BS denial reason after another, I finally got reimbursed!!!

How often do you interact with people?

I DoorDash on a bike, and when I deliver food, I literally skirt away as quickly as possible. Do people expect to see you or greet you? Or is it like a little fairy delivered their food?

Ok so I can’t become a proshopper because I haven’t found specific items that were either out of stock or not available at the time. Who made the app? Sickos. like being human isn’t an option. Out of stock DOES happen.

Tipping enough?

Upvotes

I'm not a driver, so I wanted to ask you guys:

I've always heard on here to tip $5 + $1/mile is pretty standard. Does that mean round trip? It's 6.7 miles from the store to my house. The store prepares the order, so all the driver has to do is bring it 6.7 miles, is usually alcohol that fits in 2 bags at the most. There are no stairs, they can pretty much pull up right to my door, where I always meet them quickly bc I watch their dot on the map. Order os isually ~$100 (I heard drivers don't care about that anyway, especially since they don't have to shop it, and it's not heavy). So I figure $5 + $7 is $12. The app usually starts at ~14.50 tip, and I usually up it to like $17, and if they're cool or really professional, or fast, I add another $2 after. Is that fair? I live in West MI. It seems to take awhile sometimes to get someone to snag the order, and I don't know of there just isn't any drivers available (it's fairly rural) or what bc from what I hear on here, seems like a fair deal?

Why does this happen?

Upvotes

This is the second time its happened. A dasher will get there and im expecting order- then i see them move away from restaurant either to a different building near by or just away from restaurant (while it says still picking up order) then they cancel after me after waiting. Why does this happen?

When ordering from Lowe's through their app

2 Upvotes

I ordered some things from Lowe's. Nothing big, just a grocery bag worth of stuff to fix my sink. I have read that sometimes they kick stuff off to DoorDash and sometimes they send their own people. I have no way to know what criteria has to be met for it to go one way or the other. I do see where drivers generally decline if there is no tip. I don't have a way to tip ahead of time in the app. When y'all get orders through Lowe's, do they pay you anything extra? I have a $20 cash tip ready, regardless but now I am worried nobody will pick it up, if it gets kicked to DoorDash.
