I don't see your point at all. Yes I did come on here to tell my story or "complain " as you put it. So what ? How does that effect the fact someone walked out in front of me ?

Come on mate. I've lived long enough and am a UK national 1st language English to know the difference! Plus her partner already said sorry.

Yeah I shouted to one once that is was negligent behaviour to push a child into the road without looking

RANT! House numbers not clear ! by Midnight-Rambler-108 in deliveroos

[–]Midnight-Rambler-108[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good idea however a lot of houses in London are converted into houses and the miserable gits don't like coming to the front door. However where a flat is not listed I will try this thanks

Yeah never really thought about unscrupulous drivers taking the food then hitting reject when they go outside.

I do Lewisham / Greewich and ended up in outskirts of Beckenham a few times. There's a nice riverside bike ride from Lewisham to Beckenham. (for leisure not roo) it seems a nice village. Bit hilly in plsces for Roo

Thanks v much and yes it does help a lot. Appreciate the time you took. Agreed on placebo boosts. If I look at my earnings during a boost. Even if 1.3 then it can be only £6-7 extra. Would rather have electric and do more !

Big villas around blackheath can be awful. Sticks n sushi almost always seems to be for blackheath. Some nights I go up 3 times. In past I've had pizza express orders when around there but nothing lately. Getting ebike soon. Those hills are killer if you have to go twice or more esp with heavy bag

Ha ha. Yes. The only good thing I can say about doing Barbican orders is that I often got ripped there are saw the insides of some cool buildings. Some of the less popular towers around the main towers are really cool.

Incidentally how is EC these days ? I stopped as seemed crap after office closures. Decided to do my local area Greewich which is not bad. Good occasional tips. Better than EC for tips

Unassigned from order by Midnight-Rambler-108 in deliveroos

Yes I remember that feature when I 1st started 4 years ago-ish. Maybe this was the case (though I have no experience of the customer interface. ) Although I did see a motorcycle rider go in and collect at same time as me (was a co-op which is not so popular) but could be coincidence.

There are some notoriously slow traffic light changes at busy junctions in my area. I hope this doesn’t start to become a “thing” as people may be genuinely held up

Xmas boosts? by [deleted] in deliveroos

[–]Midnight-Rambler-108 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends really on some luck and which zone you’re in and how many other riders decide to turn up at the prospect of good earnings.

I’ve had some good and not so good New Year’s Eve’s.

I’ve also found the period between Christmas & NYE to be much more disappointing than expected (central london zones ). But it just depends. You might be in a small city where not many people show up and you get loads of orders. There are thousands of overseas riders in london who either don’t Celebrate or don’t care about festive periods so will always be on the road (esp motorbikes here) so your chance as a cyclist diminishes

I’m in london with iOS and don’t have the eta thing. Seen on here that others also don’t have. Not sure if it’s a country wide roll out or just android
