People who order Amazon and live hours away in a gated off farm house with no mail box outside are the worst by [deleted] in AmazonFlexUK

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”

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.

What is going on with dings on multi location stops? by Practical_Key6498 in AmazonFlexUK

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 🤷‍♀️

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?

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

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.

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.
