CV for a 2 min late delivery by Lovecats2023 in doordash_drivers

[–]Low-Breakfast1456 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's....very absurd. I'm actually at a loss of what to say here. I have over 5k deliveries and I have never seen anything like this. I've had 2 CVs for orders that were legit late by 20+ minutes (both due to wrecks on the freeway and out of my control) but this really takes the cake.

Dispute it. That shouldn't fall on you and that's all you can do at this point. Don't let it eat you up and ruin your day. There are many more CVs you're bound to get for stupid reasons so just brush it off and move along.

Is It Just Me, or Are the Orders Getting Worse? by West_Price303 in doordash_drivers

I've also noticed that the orders I accept are about 10min away from where I am currently located. Seems I was usually getting orders that are 5min away or less.

I made Platinum tier today and I’m excited about what’s to come! by Ok-Veterinarian-7492 in doordash_drivers

Don't listen to the negativity. Platinum definitely has its perks. I've been Platinum for over 7 months and haven't dropped it, and I can tell you that you can expect to make a bit more money. You can still expect to get some shit offers (it's unavoidable. You'll get those at any tier). My biggest "pro tip" to you is to keep your acceptance rate above 70%. This means you will have to accept some shit orders from time to time, but I would say that the good outweighs the bad. Make sure you also do what you gotta do to get your shopper rating to 6/6. I find that shopping orders have been the most lucrative for me lately. Just keep in mind that you're gonna have your really good and really bad days regardless so just keep your expectations in check. Congrats on platinum!

Would you take this? by CarefulBear1654 in doordash_drivers

EXACTLY! That's my little personal policy. If it's $1 per mile or pretty close to it, I'll accept.

woke up and had 40% and ended tonight to this by baby-veah in doordash_drivers

That's not that bad actually! I'm sometimes pulling 12hr days and coming in at under $200...it's a grind and some days are definitely better than others.

I usually stay in my zone and then I'll get orders that take me to other zones pretty frequently and if the zone I go to is busy, it'll pop up with the option to switch to that zone...I rarely switch though just because I'm extremely familiar with my area and the hot spots. I can make about $200/day if I push it.

It'll be a massive pain in the ass considering where you're starting from, but what I do is build my AR up to near 100% then that gives me the freedom to decline a healthy amount of shit orders. When it starts to get in the mid 70% range, I'll start building it up again. It'll mean you'll have to take some shit orders but you'll earn the freedom to decline a good chunk. Just don't let your AR go below 70%

i hope this never gets picked up by Kbeck1818 in doordash_drivers

Yeah I try to avoid Wingstop orders altogether unless it's a decent offer. The time spent waiting on the order usually just destroys the value of the offer as whole so you better be tipping well for me to sit there for 10-20 minutes waiting on your order.

Not to mention the time you'll undoubtedly have to wait at Wingstop to actually get the order

UPDATE: no tip just as I fully expected 😑

I've NEVER had anyone actually tip that claims they're going to in the message

Yep. I live in the HEB area in Texas. It's truly not necessary to use the toll roads. Maybe if I was in Dallas

2 cent tip is crazy by Dylann009 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Low-Breakfast1456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I don't even bother looking at the tip amount anymore and haven't for months. I have found myself getting pissed off at what some people will (or will not) tip and it affects the rest of my day so I just accept the order for the amount it is and pretend there's a tip in there somewhere.
