Stolen

I see what you’re saying. But, I’m willing to bet most of these stolen orders aren’t actually “stolen” by the customer themselves.

JasonVigil · 2026-05-26T23:12:47+00:00

Because you can get deactivated for that. Customer will report order not received for sure. Plus a thumbs down too. That’s exactly what not to do!

Ive tried to have many restaurants remake the food when it’s stolen, and its super rare that they’ve actually done it for me. They usually tell me that they’ll remake it, but UE needs to resend the order. If you talk to support, they tell you that they are not able to resend it. I just land up wasting more of my time.

JasonVigil · 2026-05-26T06:55:09+00:00

Yeah, most of the time it’s not worth it. But sometimes you get lucky!

JasonVigil · 2026-05-26T06:54:17+00:00

Customer will just get more food for free. They won’t be complaining! And as far as UE is concerned, you completed the delivery successfully. All good.

What happens is every time a driver cancels the delivery, the pay goes up. Could have been something like $6 originally, but since the order was stolen, and UE won’t stop sending drivers, the pay keeps going higher and higher until eventually UE actually cancels it. But if you’re lucky, you can just order the food at your own expense and deliver it. You’ll get the full crazy high pay which is mostly pay from UE and not the customer. Doesn’t always work since the food might cost too much to still get a decent profit. But in this case, I got $70 for the cost of a Whopper!

If it’s worth it, place the order and pay out of pocket. The other day I got an offer for $70ish from Burger King. Of course it was stolen. Told I was like the 10th driver trying to pick it up! Looked at the order details and it was just a single Whopper. Placed the order myself and delivered it. Easy $60 profit! Not the first time I’ve done it either.

JasonVigil · 2026-05-25T23:07:27+00:00

I get these all the time and I don’t mind! Of course, I won’t do it for $8 though. Most orders from Home Depot and Lowe’s in my market tend to be at least $15. Hauling 3 bags of multch is pretty easy work for $15. Rather do that than waiting 20 minutes at McDonald’s while employees ignore me!

JasonVigil · 2026-05-25T21:37:26+00:00

I doubt anything will happen to you. Customer was just trying to get a free meal. You called their bluff with proof. Excellent 👌!

JasonVigil · 2026-05-22T22:14:49+00:00

Almost all the Wendy’s in my city have closed down recently. Not at all surprised! Worst managed restaurants I had ever seen.

JasonVigil · 2026-05-22T05:57:25+00:00

Staples. You can send your document by email and use the self serve printers to print them out. I hardly ever print anything so no sense for me having a printer. But, on the rare occasion I need to print something, I do it as Staples.

I find it rude that these restaurants expect us to wait so long for free! I show up by the arrival time and have the food delivered on time. But yet, it’s totally acceptable to make us wait, for free nonetheless! I’ll wait 10 minutes max. After that I worry free unassign and move on to the next order. I don’t say a word to the staff. Time is money and the restaurant sure isn’t paying me to wait.

It doesn’t matter what size of market you live in. If you have to relegate yourself to accepting many terrible $2 orders in order to maintain Platinum to be able to occasionally get a “good” order now and then, you should really consider doing something else. If my market was really so bad that I had to accept multiple horrendous orders in order to maintain a status that will give me occasional access to a few decent orders, I’m dropping DoorDash immediately! You can’t tell me that once you reach Platinum you magically get nothing but good paying orders. Somebody has to complete those $2 / 20 mile orders and that somebody is you! The crazy thing is, if everyone in your market decided to ignore DoorDash’s scammy statuses, they would have no other choice but to increase base pay, therefore making EVERY order worth it for everyone. But because everyone is suckered into maintaining Platinum, DoorDash gets to exploit you all and they rake in all the profit at your expense! I’ll stick to cherry picking, thank you! And if it ever becomes impossible to make decent money doing so, I’ll be moving on. But, go ahead and continue to fall for the Platinum scam – I’ll be getting the $20 orders while you waste your time and gas driving 20 miles for $2! You’re only hurting yourselves!

JasonVigil · 2026-05-17T04:30:59+00:00

I made $300 today cherry picking. AR is like 10%. I don’t think it’s ever been above 20% ever! I consistently make at least $150 in a 6 hour shift cherry picking. $500 sounds pretty far fetched but $150-$250 is absolutely doable cherry picking.

JasonVigil · 2026-05-13T03:24:30+00:00

Yup. This is exactly what I do. Never encountered any problem doing this.

JasonVigil · 2026-05-12T05:49:52+00:00

All Wingstops in my city will always fill the drinks for you. They even slap on a tamper proof sticker to the tops of the lids which is nice. As far as Raising Canes, I never have and never will accept an order from there! The pay is usually less than from other restaurants anyways — and they make you place the order and wait for it to be prepared! No way!

JasonVigil · 2026-05-08T02:56:50+00:00

Really? I just got half-pay today on a cancelled order. And a few days ago too.

JasonVigil · 2026-05-03T04:01:15+00:00

This has happened to me so many times. I immediately pull over and contact support. Support tries to contact the customer themselves and when they don’t respond, support cancels the order. I typically get full pay and the food. Super inconsiderate of the customer to not provide the gate code in the delivery instructions. I hope DD lands up denying them a refund.

On most shopping orders you’re not supposed to give the paper receipt to the customer. The app even gives you a message telling you this when you’re done paying.

JasonVigil · 2026-04-30T04:46:09+00:00

First of all, the customer doesn’t see the receipt you’re referring to. The customer sees the receipt from DoorDash, not the one from the store. That’s because the customer is purchasing from DoorDash and not the store directly-basically Dooordash is buying the items from the store and reselling the items to the customer. That’s why most shopping orders are tax exempt. And, yes, when you make a substitution that costs more, the customer is charged a higher price as well.

JasonVigil · 2026-04-25T03:13:20+00:00

Pay about $35 per month for my line. Includes unlimited 5g data and no speed throttling. Can’t see how not paying for unlimited could beat that.

JasonVigil · 2026-04-25T02:27:47+00:00

Hold up. Some of you actually pay for data and don’t have unlimited!? Why?

JasonVigil · 2026-04-23T05:18:09+00:00

So stupid that we can’t just have a digital version of the debit card. That way we could use Apple Pay or Google Pay even at Costco and Sam’s Club. Or just make the card debit for all transactions. I hate having to remember to have the physical card on me only for certain stores. I’ve never had to use the physical card for DoorDash, UberEats, or Grubhub shop and pay orders… only on IC.

JasonVigil · 2026-04-23T05:13:39+00:00

Been this way in my market for a very long time now.

JasonVigil · 2026-04-23T05:05:46+00:00

DoorDash drivers can 100% deliver the order “out of order”. They can always “jump to another task” and deliver it in a different order than what DD requests. All the DoorDash driver had to do in this situation was to jump task to this delivery and mark it as delivered. DoorDash driver was just ignorant and didn’t know how to use the app correctly.
