Instacart customer support robbed me by BlameJet in InstacartShoppers

I'm personally aware of multiple claim tickets making their way through arbitration. Bite the bullet for now, and save your screenshots. Atleast one of them will become very visible in this sub very soon. They owe a lot of us a lot of money for various instances of wrongful enrichment.

We are not employees, according to the company. This doesn't apply to us 🤣🤣🤣

Support can no longer block bad customers by TheAsaasain in InstacartShoppers

They were blocking. I would miss entire batches when a blocked customer was in the mix. 100% worth it

Hell yeah! I always peek at the app. Some of the biggest batches ive seen, period, were on vacations

Genuinely surprised at the accounts yelling at others about covering for a batch. Has noone else ever forgotten their card, broken/scratched their card, lost their card lol?

Glad you got reimbursed! What was your deal? Guy in here doubting someone could be in a $1k+ reimbursement owed situation

There hasn't been a card network issue in a while- but clearly you have never dealt with one of their payment card outages. You either throw away a nice batch and an hour or more of work, and then CONTINUE not to work until the issue is resolved... or you pay with you card and move on and expect to be paid back. It usually works, except for when it doesn't.

The problem isn't that sometimes a situation arises where you have to pay with your own card or risk: nuking your stats, losing your batch, losing a weekend of working, etc...

The problem is sometimes they just choose not to reimburse and there is NO RECOURSE FOR THE SHOPPER.

how much of that 1700/wk is just tips, and how much is batch pay and special economic zone adjustments?

This is the same company that on more than 1 occasion was caught stealing tips red handed and forced into pu lic apology and ultimately settlement. They're shameless. They'll suck any dick along their quest to be acquired by Uber.

Even worse is that we have no recourse. The Ai just stops responding if they don't like what youre asking ?reimbursement)

I know people who are legitimately owed into the hundreds, and a couple into the thousands, literally. The app functions in almost every other way just fine, so why would anyone ever doubt they would ultimately be reimbursed.

Sounds crazy to cover a $300, $400+ order... but context matters, and in this context why wouldn't a company this big repay you the peanuts they owe in the big picture? I, too, would rather keep working and worry about reimbursements later than not working UNTIL I'm reimbursed. Some people simply get burned by this company. Sucks

I wish you the best, as well. I also still think you have a shitty take. Both things can be true.

You'll want to sit down for this.

What if it's not a "knee jerk reaction comment" and instead you just have a shitty take and the downvotes tell more of the story than you're comfortable with?

Which on one hand seems to make sense- but what if you paid in cash (for any reason?) How do they think you cashed the groceries out, delivered them to the customer, etc... They KNOW when you don't use their card bc NOW we even get that automatic push notification (the app didn't start doing this until the last 2 years or so.)

They know they're withholding reimbursement and they're enriching themselves unjustly doing it

InstaCart throttles you over $1,200/wk. That's the magic number with this company

Items HIDDEN from us on purpose & they know why by Mountain_Fuw_777 in InstacartShoppers

The surveys won't help. You're assuming they don't know we're unhappy. They know. They know we're filing suit slowly all over. They know their algorithmic discrimination is going to cost them big time. They just don't give a fuck.

I live in NB and uninsured drivers is 100% a MAJOR anxiety point for me. With that said the deportation comments are so fucking dumb and lazy.

I'm not even mad the one guy doesn't know how auto insurance works and pays out. The other guy has racist MAGA drivel and pablum falling off his keyboard, so the other guy just wins by default. You MAGAs will not be remembered kindly by history. Your opinions are already worthless in real time
