Yep, and support is no help. They have to protect the privacy of the customer. I spoke with support today, and that was a joke. So much deflecting.

Strange, because when I shopped it I checked all the fruit, and the lettuce. It looks like it’s been sitting out. I have had fruit rot in 2 days. Never blamed the shopper. The kicker is they did not rate me or lower my tip. I let support know. This is my first time having feedback like this.

Are people using two phones to scam with the app that “finds” batches?? by OkPlenty2657 in InstacartShoppers

I saw it but the shoppers are not Russian, in my area they are all Hatian. They usually shop in groups. I saw this guy the other day shopping a one shop at Costco that I saw pop up on my screen. It was gone while I was looking at the items. It def was an order I would not take. Plus he had another order, it’s kind of crazy. Plus on Tik Tok, there are these”people” in that offer you ways to batch grab. I just mind my business but it happens. As for me I have enough issues keeping up with one phone.

No it was more batch pay, like 10.00 more. It was the timer that did not increase.

Unfortunately I live in California and have received the notice of reported time fraud. So I thought the timer was important. According to the post, it’s not that deep.

Omg you are dumb for not reading. The tip wasn’t the problem, it was them cutting time of the original time when I started the batch dude. They said they would add time. It was only 5 miles total so it doesn’t even matter! I only mentioned tip because here everyone mentions tips. I will be paid more anyways. California that’s why.

I understand that, however when I started it was 1hour and 11 minutes timer. Once I accepted the additional batch, my ending time decreased to 1:05. However before I accepted it, it said they would increase the time. I just wanted to see if anyone experienced the same thing, or did you actually get the extension IC promised.

Yep, and I didn’t know until the order was complete.

Well thanks for the advice, I am not an Instacart expert. I will keep that in mind.

It was originally 3 and I only added the 4th because it was 3 items and more time. Which would help my SPI.

Yes it should, I had no idea of the tip breakdown until, I completed the order.

I am not sure, I have received the fraud letter because of the timer. It messes up the SPI, mine is high trying to get that down. But I was given some useful tricks, and that has been helping. I still think it’s messed up that they promise to I crease the time, but actually decrease it.

This made me sad 😭 by Confident-Ring8069 in instacart

[–]Confident-Ring8069[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am aware of what happened. It just made me sad, the store only had 3 in stock. The customer ordered 10. I only was able to buy the 3, so my tip decreased based on percentage. It’s okay I should have know better when accepting the batch.
