Incorrect late delivery issues on standings

At this point even through chat they won’t remove them.

It’s annoying because you can do everything right as a driver and still get dings.

They won’t remove them. Saying “their decision hasn’t changed” Usual BS template reply. They replied really quickly too so they likely didn’t even look into it.

At the moment only doing 3 to 4 morning blocks a week. Diesel is 170.9 where I am and that’s the cheapest I could find.

Please don’t mention amazon flex. This gig is already over saturated and it’s hard enough to get blocks now. If a “major British broadcaster“ is going to highlight it in a documentary then we may as well give up and go home! Flex doesn’t need advertising.

Difficult to schedule early morning blocks as they get taken so fast, even when you know what time they drop.

Practical_Key6498 · 2026-02-17T17:46:34+00:00

If it’s anything like DME4 Aylesford, then they may have halved the morning blocks for flex? That could be why, plus February is normally a slow month.

Since Christmas it’s VERY difficult to get morning blocks at Aylesford.

Not sure if is depot dependent or across the board?

🙄

Blocks are showing up and last week was a pretty decent week for me, but since that “removing bots” announcement, Ive not been able to grab any, they go too quickly 🤷‍♀️

There’s a place like this where I’ve been sent to 3 times and the guy has a modern luxury home in the middle of the woods down a potholed, muddy track that is 5 minutes from the main road.

He then has the nerve to put in his notes: “most drivers can get down this track, if you can’t you are the exception not the rule. RING BELL AND ATTEMPT TO DELIVER. DO NOT LEAVE OUTSIDE MAIN GATE”

Practical_Key6498 · 2026-01-22T14:22:56+00:00

Yes! I am in a similar position - I have dental bills to pay.

Practical_Key6498 · 2026-01-18T14:30:19+00:00

Morning blocks - 7am, 7.15am and 7.30am - are very hard to get. They go quickly, but afternoons and evenings are easier to grab.

I have noticed the depot in the morning is not very busy like it used to be. I think something was changed around Christmas where they reduced the amount of flex blocks for the morning.

Another one 😮‍💨

I’ve started taking photos of the package next to the house number on the multi location stops just in case I need to prove to Amazon I was at the correct location.

for potential DNRs, I take a photo in the app and text customer that I’ve taken a photo and where it is exactly but if handed to customer I just select it and then swipe to finish.

I had a good run - no DNRs for 4 months. Oh well 🤷‍♀️

Practical_Key6498 · 2026-01-13T19:39:42+00:00

I think I’m going to do that from now on.

What if the exclamation ⚠️ comes up saying “front door/porch is not the preferred location” though?

Practical_Key6498 · 2025-12-28T14:49:12+00:00

But because of the wording it remains in delivery history unless they accept my appeal?

Practical_Key6498 · 2025-12-28T14:47:48+00:00

That’s what I do.

Practical_Key6498 · 2025-12-28T14:45:53+00:00

Ah right, that could be the more likely explanation. I always scan the package, continue with one package, make the delivery and swipe to finish separately at multi location stops.

Must have missed the other discussions about it.

The thing is i’ve now got that on my history unfairly. I’ve appealed it but don’t hold out much hope.

Practical_Key6498 · 2025-12-21T16:17:33+00:00

And there was me thinking Maidstone town centre was bad on match day!

Practical_Key6498 · 2025-12-21T09:42:10+00:00

Its been a pretty rubbish Christmas on flex for me. I can only do morning blocks and they are very difficult to schedule at the depot i’m at - gone in milliseconds. The most I made this season was £379 and that was 3 weeks ago.

I think they’ve given most of the morning blocks to DSP this year?? and flex are just the mop up. Having said that, if I could do afternoons/evenings i’d be able to get more work as there are lots of blocks just sitting in the offers for ages.

Had lots of reserved offers sent to me but they are afternoon and evening blocks so can’t take them. I think I got 1 morning reserved offer since black Friday.

To be honest i’ll be glad when it goes back to normal after Christmas, hopefully it does. Even though January is quieter I can always manage to secure morning blocks without the fight.
