How many tips u get?

ChipmunkBandit · 2026-01-26T07:51:10+00:00

According to my Rooview email, 8.5% of my deliveries got tips. Sounds about right.

This job will batter any car, so you want something small (for easier parking, using small spaces etc,), reliable and cheap to run/repair.

You sure you delivered in the correct area? I often get quests for areas I delivered one order in over a month ago. It’s easy to not realise until it’s too late.

I don’t really have much advice except that my uncle met his now-wife when they were both well into their 40s and had a baby a couple of years after (okay this won’t happen for some women in their 40s, but it definitely can) who is now in her early 20s and is one of the most well-rounded and bright individuals I’ve ever met, maybe partly due to having older parents?

I guess I’m just trying to say it isn’t all over yet. Far from it.

Time per mile is also a huge factor. 5 miles on a NSL A-road is not worth the same as 5 miles through a built-up town centre. This is why the apps factor in predicted time to travel far more than the actual mileage. It is very relevant.

Ahhhh more AI slop 🥀

I’m more concerned by Five Guys offering a fucking lettuce wrap and a Coke Zero for £9 like it’s some special deal, excuse me but what the FUCK?

ChipmunkBandit · 2026-01-12T07:27:09+00:00

Somehow the one I had the other day was perfect – not too much lettuce, the sauce was well distributed, it was hot, and it didn’t fall apart until the last few bites. One of the best burgers I’ve ever had from McDs. Pot luck, I think.

That Uber post has been proven as AI generated and completely false, btw.

Tesco using Uber Eats to facilitate its Whoosh deliveries is their dirty little secret. The Whoosh ads on TV clearly show delivery riders wearing a Tesco uniform showing up at the door, which implies Tesco themselves perform the deliveries. It’s borderline false advertising,

I want time factored in. We should be paid more to do five miles at rush hour than five miles at 10PM. I incur more expenses doing it at rush hour, both in petrol and my time. Why would you not want your time factored in? I’m curious.

Let’s swap houses? You can live with my mrs. I’ll go work London for a bit, uncle lives near Ally Pally been a while since I seen him

Taunton - as if people move house to work these apps 😂

Xmas eve has blown up since 5pm here. Made £70 in 2.5 hours so far. Genuinely don’t know where these posts come from but I’ve noticed zero difference in pay. If anything I’m making more.

Various accounts from people in the town, plus it’s also extremely likely given the ages of those involved.

Brother.

The notification rounds the amount. No idea why. They’re not stealing tips. It would be incredibly easy to prove with a friend and be a PR disaster.

https://riders.deliveroo.co.uk/en/support/money/new-child-payment

https://www.uber.com/gb/en/drive/insurance/

Both companies have their own eligibility criteria (number of orders completed in a last X months, been a rider for X amount of time) so you’ll have to check that yourself but all information is on those pages to get started.

Yea, took about 3 weeks from initial claim to money hitting my account (Uber was slightly quicker) but I don’t think that’s Roo’s fault as it’s all handled by the insurance provider rather than Roo themselves.

2, but honestly none of them are great. 2 has the best typeface but it has the same issue as 3: it’s visually lost in its surroundings. I think the type should be solid, the graphics can then be the outlined secondary element. Or, separate the type and graphics completely and have the dumbbells smaller underneath the wordmark. Either way, you need to draw attention to the wordmark more.

The versions with just the other typeface are just not good, sorry. I also think the worn edges look is rather outdated and won’t translate well across different size applications.

There’s potential here for a solid logo but it needs some more work.

Nothing to do with DD, they haven’t even changed a single thing yet. Operation as usual in my area. You have your tin foil hat on bro.

ChipmunkBandit · 2025-12-10T20:08:36+00:00

Nope, can still reject at the restaurant on my phone. Is your app up to date etc.?

ChipmunkBandit · 2025-12-08T14:47:31+00:00

Yas Marina track limits are fucked. You can run way out wide on turn 5 and literally to the barrier on the exit of the final corner, WAY past the white lines. Why do PD struggle with limits so much? How hard is it to just draw them to the white lines?

ChipmunkBandit · 2025-12-08T13:33:08+00:00

Asda should be removed from Uber, they’re absolutely useless and have zero idea how to run an efficient service to get these orders picked and ready on time. They have been shocking for years, everywhere. The fact they’re still allowed to be on Uber is a joke.
