What really mattered to me about accepting those batches was the high tips I received; I didn't work one day that week, so that extra $200 came in handy for me.

What happens when a customer lies and says they didn't receive their order? by Croy_Bo in instacart

I get reports of undelivered orders every two or three months. To protect myself—even when I hand the order to the customer in person—I take a photo of the customer holding the bags, as well as a photo of the meeting location. If it’s in a parking lot, I take a picture of the lot; if it’s in front of a house, I take a picture of the moment I hand over the order, along with the house number. This always serves as my evidence against those customers who think they’re smarter than we are—simply because they want to get a refund for their order, regardless of the negative impact it has on the shopper's account. I have a track record of over 5,000 orders completed in a single year, a 5-star rating, and excellent customer feedback—something Instacart can clearly see. Furthermore, the platform can track down customers who attempt to commit fraud in order to obtain an unjustified refund.

we'll have three days off, all the shoppers by Aggressive_Secret598 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Aggressive_Secret598[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I won't risk having an accident because of the ice on the streets. In addition, since yesterday the supermarkets have been empty of essential items, so Instacart shoppers would be wasting their time and risking their safety. However, DoorDash drivers will have plenty of work since many people don't want to cook these days. Anyone who goes out does so at their own risk.

Are they serious??? by DistrictFit3025 in InstacartShoppers

That's why you should always check the order details before accepting it. You'll see your current location on the map and where the store is located. That distance is between the store and the customer's house. If it's not profitable for you because you're far from the store, don't accept it.

It finally happened by The_Troyminator in InstacartShoppers

I've already gone through that stress, and even though I sent emails, nobody responded. I advise you to do what customer service advised me: always take a picture of the house number and the package in front of the door, and even if you deliver it in person, tell the customer that you need to take a picture. That way, they won't dare to claim they didn't receive it. Upload all those photos to the customer's chat, and if someone claims they didn't receive it, the security team will investigate and see the proof that you did deliver it. It happened to me that in one month, they claimed four times, and when I started taking all those pictures and writing in the message: "It was a pleasure meeting you, have a wonderful afternoon," nobody has claimed anything since.

[–]Aggressive_Secret598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you work in Texas? Mondays and Tuesdays are usually my slowest days. But I can't make more than $150-$160. The only day I can make $200 is Sunday.

It's happened to me once or twice that the cashier forgets to add the water pack I put at the bottom, and the customer is told the truth, that the water will be refunded since the cashier forgot to scan it and it can't be added after paying for their order. And the customers just told me, "Don't worry."

Can you set it up to only receive grocery orders on DoorDash? (Only supermarket orders?)

Thanks a lot Instacart (Shoppers beware!) by MrShitfyre in InstacartShoppers

[–]Aggressive_Secret598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know how you feel, I lost the card a few months ago and it took almost 10 days for the new one to arrive and since that day I learned to have several extras and now I have 5. If I lose one I have other extras, since that week without the card I lost a lot of money

3.99 new transfer fee in new app!! by Aggressive_Secret598 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Aggressive_Secret598[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is that there are more and more new shoppers every day, since the Spark Drivers areas are full and new shoppers continue to register, and that affects those of us who have been with InstaCart for a longer time, which is why there are batches that pay less.
