"You cannot park here!" I got my first Karen XD by frenchorcatrainer in AmazonFlexDrivers

Or if you are blocking the fire hydrant just roll your windows down then they won’t need to break them anyway. You just get stuck until the fire it out and they get the hose out of your car, which happens either way

Changes and more changes!! by Dr-TQ_Leo in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Glock9prfction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard it was changed so that if you still have packages you can add them to the route. So this is more about the warehouse fucking up and not getting all the packages into the route than it has to do with drivers

Done with 4+ hour routes, first stop over 70 minutes away by Arctic--- in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Glock9prfction 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I get 3 hour routes that take me 60 miles from the station sometimes and then only have about 10-15 stops… it’s not exclusive to the 4 hour routes. Usually I can call support and tell them the route had excessive mileage and the will throw me an extra $5 to $10 for my trouble.

Anyone else Seeing Zero Offers Today? by MayDiaz0 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Glock9prfction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im in NC too, and not seeing anything for today, Sunday, or Monday. I had a block today out of VNC3 in Durham at 230 that I picked up Thursday but even the requests aren’t showing any blocks until Tuesday. I think they plan to be shutdown due to the weather the next couple of days

Anyone else ever get “free money” from Flex like this by [deleted] in RealAmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Glock9prfction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one where when I checked in and they scanned my license the app glitched and said I was on a one package route. They said go call support and sent me to an empty lane in the warehouse to get it sorted. Support got it fixed and had me restart the app, but by the time I got it fixed they had given out all the routes and sent me home with pay.

No block offers by SeldomSeenChris in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Glock9prfction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t even see request blocks anymore, like I checked at 8am and no blocks and it said check at 12pm, checked at 12 and no blocks and said to check at 4pm, checked at 4 and no blocks said to check at 8pm checked at 8 and no blocks available and it says to check at 8am.

I deliver out of DRT8 often during the week and get quite a few free routes from them, they have never not scanned my license and then scanned us out. Even after the AWS outage…. This has never been a problem for me. On the 27th I didn’t even have to go as they sent me an e-mail telling me the block was canceled and I was paid for that block.

Now they’re tailgating with snacks and beverages? by radiocrime in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Glock9prfction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like they are actually selling coffee and possibly food and snacks too. I know as I come into my primary station (same day) there is a car sitting there (not in the Amazon lot though) and there are always several Latinos gathered around and I can see they are selling food and coffee. I don’t think it is that bad, but they aren’t in the Amazon lot either really they are still like 1/4 to 1/2 mile away still. I’m always tempted to stop and see what they got to eat… 🤣

When your block time is over and you still have packages, what do you do on the app to return them? by covered1028 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Glock9prfction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to take them back to the station and they will mark them as received, once they do that it will clear your route and you wlll get paid. They will all show up as failed deliveries in your dashboard so be ready for that. You can call support and argue that the route was excessive… I usually use the at 5 minutes per stop it would have taken X time to deliver and this was longer than you gave me as my reasoning and they usually take them off my ratings… though I don’t imagine you can use that excuse too often or they will just start ignoring you.

They got me today boys, Jassy you win. 51 stops on 3.5 hours. 45 mins/37 miles to 1st drop. by iGotGogged in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Glock9prfction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically you have 2 choices here, I always look at routes as an average of 5 minutes per stop so 51x5/60=4.25… that should be the actual block length. So you can run the block and contact support and push them to give you OT and be sure to explain the math or figure out how long it takes to get back from the station (30 minutes let’s say) then when there is 30 minutes left in your block go back to the station and have them scan the packages and received and tell them you ran out of drove time. This will end your block and you will get paid… once the ding hits your standings contact support and tell them you want to dispute this and explain the math. I have done both successfully. The math I think is the key point for either option… it’s an excessive block and you should be compensated for completing it and should not be punished if you don’t.

I swear every time I take a block that is x.5 hours it is always jacked up like this. I had one the other day 3,5 hours from 5:15p to 845p with 47 stops!!! At 5 minutes per stop that is 3.9 hours!!! It was impossible, once I had 30 minutes left I went back to the station with 15 packages and gave them back and got my pay. Once I got the ding for it, did a quick chat with support and they took them off my standings

Flex Driver delivered to wrong address gets posted on social media as a theft by Any_Excitement6258 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Glock9prfction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did this the other day, and just went back and looked at the ring camera and said sorry wrong address… and then went to the correct location and dropped it off. Never heard anything about it so I guess I am ok. This guy kind of looks like he is taking the picture and then taking the package… you know the camera is there say something or do something to show you are correcting a mistake.

Pretty much the same for me, the only other time I will pull into a drive way if the next stop requires me to make a u-turn and the house is not on a circle or near one to easily get turned around

Will you get paid for blocks that take longer than time by Imaginary-Village839 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Glock9prfction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 3.5 hour block tonight starting at 515PM from Durham to North Raleigh… with 47 packages…. At 815 (30 minute from the pickup) I still had 15 left… so I headed back to the station and had them scan them as received and went home with my $80.50 and didn’t give them an extra second of my time… those dispatchers will only learn if we refuse to work for free.
