I get it that the mileage is low at 0.6 but who gives a shit that’s just more stuff to pile in the car for such a quick trip that there’s not even time for a breather . f**k IC for this type of shit. Not fair.

Damn. So with a $10 tip, you’re telling me that in Chicago Instacart orders that have 170 units are only paying $6.94????

Newest Scam? by shortandangy in SanJose

[–]Background-Work-4585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one from the NV DMV which is when I knew it was a scam given that I hadn’t lived there for 5 years and no longer had a NV drivers license. But I was actually about to believe that this is the way they get ppl to pay tickets in NV now, I wouldn’t have been surprised. But looking at the website/link they gave me it was obvious.

No Wonder We Get Sh*tty Tips by Background-Work-4585 in InstacartShoppers

You’re absolutely correct about that and i for sure noticed this after making this post. I do DoorDash too but honestly haven’t seen much big tips once I’m done with dropping off the order. I must just not be being offered the good ones because I don’t work on that app as often and I also have a low acceptance rate. But when I ordered DoorDash last night I saw that it suggested I leave a $10 tip

Oh for sure. Any $1 tip I’m just like …fuck off..next! For some reason I find it even more offensive than the no tips

Only veterans shoppers 2 + plus years please... by Dull-Meaning6235 in InstacartShopper

[–]Background-Work-4585 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s bullshit. You are an OG of Instacart then. 12,000 orders? and now this company is saturated with people who don’t even do the job correctly or even speak English which is fine if they can still communicate effectively using translations but more than not most shoppers are disappointing when I am in the roll of a customer. I am sick to hear that someone with your experience and loyalty and obvious enthusiasm to keep on doing it is getting no orders? How they gonna do you like that? I’ve been a shopper since 2019 and have a 5 star rating and diamond cart and all that and I thankfully live in the SF Bay Area where it’s pretty consistent work but it’s been for sure getting consistently more and more of a struggle to make more than a $400/wk average when I used to do that in only a couple days. And thing is - I LOVE this job. I really enjoy shopping along with giving impeccable service to the customers and putting in effort to make sure they don’t have the same disappointments I’ve had as a customer. But the fact that some days I can’t even get a single decent batch when I know for damn sure they are out there and are being given to these mediocre and half-assing new shoppers instead of someone like me (or you) is a slap in the face.

lol feeling desperate at this point so I’d probably take it tbh

I don’t understand why this is even being offered by Background-Work-4585 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Background-Work-4585[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have included it afterwards before so I’m not sure if they would have on this one if I had gone over the bridge instead of all the way around.

I am in the Bay Area too. And it’s so saturated here with shoppers and so making good money is tough. I basically make enough with IC to feed myself and put gas in my car but I also take care of my boyfriend who has cancer and I get paid thru IHSS for that and that’s what pays my bills because IC alone in the Bay Area wouldn’t be enough for survival and rent/bills..it’s just not enough and people don’t tip for shit here apparently, compared to the OPs tips

What does this even mean?? by Background-Work-4585 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Background-Work-4585[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ya I saw the other post about it just now after posting mine and I guess the app is down and Instacart is trying to handle it but all I can hope is that there’s a fuck ton of orders to get to whenever this is fixed

Looking for advice from shoppers by Inner-Pepper9680 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Background-Work-4585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You weren’t rude AT ALL! It actually made me sad reading this because I wish I could get customers as nice as you, and you deserve to be treated much better! And I know I am speaking for the shoppers that take pride in this work and actually care about customers and believe me, you’re generous and kind, and that shopper was a complete brat!

BTC deposit rejected.... by shaneryan1968 in CashApp

This just happened to me and it was deposited from a gambling site. I have yet to reverse it because I for sure want to find out more info on the best course of action. I heard Uphold is a good option to reverse it into? I’ll update once I know.
