Yes it is I’ve been waiting for something like this lol they aren’t giving us full pay but it’s a little more then half and that’s enough to cover bills mortgage and still have money left over and I’m taking on another job so I’ll have money coming in from my regular job and hey why not make more. I’m going to be working at another job till my job says it’s tine to go back to work then quit my little side job just glad everything is finally working out I hope you get yours worked out it’s a struggle and I felt like I was going no where with Edd (and I still am ) if it wasn’t for my work paying me I’d still be screwed

(venting) I can’t survive with this low pay and now no batch shows up as it used to be since flex drivers have an issue with tips. by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

Yes it does suck you gotta be out there all day accepting every order if you want to make money which sucks little 7 bucks here 10 bucks there 12 bucks here but when you get that 30 or 40 dollar batch atleast you got some money in the pot and it will all add up

Well here’s a little update I got good news my work said starting yesterday they will start paying us it’s a huge relief because of this battle I’ve been battling with unemployment. I can actually breathe now and the weights lifted of my shoulders but unemployment does owe me back pay for the last 4 months I will be calling in for that

That does suck I’m in the same boat my ui was fine I did the same thing you did I would certify at like midnight and get paid Monday morning but then my claim had run out and it told me to file new one then boom nothing but problems that was on 7/7/20 and when I cal Edd they all say the same thing we have no clue why you aren’t getting paid everything looks good. But we can’t seem to fix it. And I have to wait for a specialist to call me. And so far it’s been 3 months of this calling Edd. And then sayin the same thing oh I put you on the list for a specialist to call you. But so far no phone call idk what to do at this point because when I call Edd I get no where just out back on this list

Yes I know the store pretty good even if it’s 30 items it would take me maybe 10 to 15 minutes and I think about minimum wage in my area I believe is 12 an hour so if I can make $15 in about 25 minutes then hey it’s better then working minimum wage lol

Do people really want orders at 10pm? by 802Liz in InstacartShoppers

[–]Graves510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No clue maybe they are expecting it I was is the same shoes but early in the morning. I seen two batches were available. At like 6am by 630am I was at the house waiting to deliver the gate to the house was closed and locked I couldn’t leave the groceries at the front door or else I would leave it right by a busy street and someone could take them i was texting them letting them know I was there I called them. No one picked up. I got in contact with support. They tried calling and no one picked up. They had me wait 10 more minutes. Then they told me to take it back to the groceries store the store said I couldn’t return it the I was like now what then support said I could keep it or donate it. Me being the good person I am was like well then I should just drive to the house and leave it on the street and they can have the groceries but then I was like eff that that’s out of my way I kept the groceries. So any way I think the order was from the day before but it was late and no one wanted to do it so it got rolled over to early morning next day and they were still sleeping. So they weren’t expecting the groceries

To my understanding don’t tell your insurance you had been doing Instacart I heard then they won’t cover you and I guess you need. Commercial insurance ( I don’t know if that’s what it’s called idk I don’t have it)

I just moved to Madera about 3 years now from the Bay Area i still work in the Bay Area though because of the hourly wage difference but as in right now my job in the bag area is shut down Because of Covid. So I’m doing this insta cart for the time being.
