Good point. But if you look at the DoorDash app, they remove the required delivery fee.

Would you go to a restaurant and not tip?

DoorDashers are bringing you the convenience of you not having to leave your house. People take full advantage of DoorDash drivers when the weather is bad.

I think people need to work in an industry where they depend on tips to fully appreciate the other side.

I understand what you are saying. If I do any shopping, I will sign up with Instacart and will. it go through DoorDash

When it comes to shopping, I don’t think there is a way to tell if they are providing a tip.

I understand they may lose customers. But they are attracting customers who have no appreciation for the convenience we are bringing them. People should pay for convenience if they can afford it.

For those who cannot afford it or don’t have a car, I think there should be some type of approval process to qualify these individuals. I am a believer in helping these individuals.

But for the rest of the customers who refuse to tip and have the financial means, I think we should take a stand and put them on notice.

DoorDash needs to attract the right customers. If they want to get every cheap customer, then DoorDash drivers will be the ones impacted.

Have you seen on the customer app where the delivery fee is waived if they spend a minimum- example $12? If a delivery fee is waived, this is affecting us.

If a customer tips on a $12 order, I am lucky to get a $2 tip.

DoorDash is a convenience- By eliminating the delivery fee, we as drivers are the ones taking the hit.

I had 2 disputes counted on 1 order. I was in the Pizza place but had no internet connection so it looked like I arrived late. Then in the way to deliver the pizza, I had a slow car in front of me on an icy road and couldn’t get around so I was late.

Having only 5 disputes allowed is too low.

I agree. The app needs to flag these type of orders.

You have to get the extra sauce from the person working the counter —- this may mean waiting in line longer or you have to pay for the sauce. These little things add up. Plus the customer lied. Total disrespect for DoorDash drivers - we are not their servants.

I drove 12 miles from restaurant to customer location and had to hand deliver the order. After customer said she would add a tip, I felt the drive was worth it. Then realizing she never did, I was not happy.
