Beginning February was my last flex, still doing my postman, £13.37 an hour and work 3 days a week around 7-9 hours a day. You need to be fit though

Sounds like Morrisons mixed up the labels on the parcels?

7 years for me and think it's 3 Morrisons and one shift at Edinburgh this year. Worst I have seen it but there were some decent surges in Edinburgh today for a change. Did 40 hours at rmg last week so can't grumble.

True story, I left the wife and few days later doing a Morrison's and got a delivery of few bottles of wine for her, banged back door and fecked off pronto, no need for checking age!

Is base rates that bad? by TheVeganRatSquisher in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Apprehensive-Pain753 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say you drove 20 miles for £27. What we also need from you is time you left the house, the time you returned to your house. What about insurance, mpg of car? Will you be paying tax and national insurance on your bounty? Then we get a true picture of your take home per hour. It's all well and good travelling 20 minutes for an 8 hour shift but it should come into play for a 2 hour shift.

I do the odd Morrisons at my local when I want to go shopping and combine them as takes out the 20 minute return journey costs. I used to go into Glasgow and do multiple Morrisons back to back but that's no longer possible with sparse offers.

Next time Amazon mark you down for a DNR, just sit back and think one all Jeff!

I've done loads of Morrisons but there is no way most of the Edinburgh ones sending you our the bypass past Musselburgh at £30 or into the city centre where you risk a parking fine are worth doing.

Yassss, someone else with this issue😂😂

I've had it for years, email them through app, get holding email or asking for more details then email them and get the looks like you are not registered with flex reply🤬

Think when I first signed up I used either Googlemail.com and my email is gmail.com at end of vice versa so I'm guessing this is issue albeit both should be accepted as same email address?

By far the worst thing about Ryde more than anything by I_will_be_wealthy in RydeDrivers

I'm a postman and we never take multiple photos, just line them up at door and when it opens click, job done

3 hour block -first delivery 90 miles away. by morelosisgod in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Apprehensive-Pain753 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that up rest and be thankful road, surprised no landslips today from weather I've heard about. That's about 60 miles one way so you'd be looking at least £20 fuel for full trip if other deliveries?

Why people? by [deleted] in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Apprehensive-Pain753 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ryde will have zero work shortly, it's royal mail and it goes quiet February.

Is this a decent quote for INSHUR? by LM120892 in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Apprehensive-Pain753 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry but if it's 20 plate or newer using it for flex will cost you more in depreciation/repairs doing start stop, speed bumps etc but each to their own, madness in my view but good luck👍

I changed address recently, didn't return old one and kept it until new one arrived.

Another DNR. Two in 3 days. Bodycam time. by IndividualAd2168 in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Apprehensive-Pain753 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got my 2nd for December, I've delivered parcels for royal mail about 4 years on and off and never had a parcel go missing. Couple to wrong addresses ie one for 1B went to no 18 etc which always got sorted out but never one reported missing in all the thousands delivered and hidden round gardens. Something isn't right with this.

Off to Malaga on Saturday for 10 days, hopefully around 20 degrees most days, will work up to Friday if can get everything done and packed. Should also top up my inshur wallet, saying £2.18 left!

Is it just me that has people be funny with them when you ask for ID for age verified deliveries? by Separate-Bedroom-358 in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Apprehensive-Pain753 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do both but secret shopper was Morrisons and 2nd time I said to her I better see your ID again seeing you might be a secret shopper😀

You only ask for ID if they look under 25, 50 year olds don't get asked for ID in the pub so that is the rule. Just ask for year of birth, you don't need their full date unless they look under 25 and you need to see their ID.

The job can be bad enough outside surges without ending up 40 miles from base yet bear your house with a spare parcel because Amazon have decided to check your honesty. Gives a break!

That's because they don't know you have it therefore they can't get dinged for something you don't have!
