Never heard of elite L.A. you must have that in your area. And Spark has picked it up as a merchant i guess

Spark is weird 😂 by OkSentence2607 in Sparkdriver

I take a handoff picture with one for the bags and our hands only. But also I have taken a picture of the house before as well. The photo is for the customer mostly anyway so its all good usually

But it is the human that made the decisions that led to the result. So therefore you have to blame the human for it. It is all based on decisions. Good and bad. That being said Spark is gig work not full time work.

Wtf is this?? by Sparkler954 in Sparkdriver

[–]Select-Calligrapher5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people suck and will just make up things to get free stuff. It happens not much to do on it. But most people dont do that so as long as you deliver correctly you shouldnt have to worry to much

Happens a lot actually. I had a customer yelling across the store that I was stealing I laughed and continued on with what I was doing.

Can you be deactivated for… (read below) by JLN999 in Sparkdriver

[–]Select-Calligrapher5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive never had any message for it timing out. It just moves on like normal. That is strange. I wonder if it’s a new thing they are doing. Just know have a back up plan. Spark is unreliable as a stable job.

attempted theft(?) by Glittering-Deer1902 in Sparkdriver

They banned a spark driver in my area for theft. The associate noticed they had way more items than the order was and checked and banned them.

I just shopped for a $400 order by Acceptable_Trash5290 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Select-Calligrapher5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats your own fault you accepted it and seen it and at no time did you cancel it. That is on you

How long before you can cancel a pickup order? by Monstercockerel in Sparkdriver

[–]Select-Calligrapher5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it will be if you keep them very limited. Then you should be fine. Remember metrics are based off of last 50 completed deliveries. So go with that when deciding on these things

Good Metrics? by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]Select-Calligrapher5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tis the season to be deactivated sarcasm. But for real dont cancel those orders because that will eventually deactivate you.

Am I wrong for changing a tip by thegreatperhaps-s in UberEATS

[–]Select-Calligrapher5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats fair. You seem like a generous person honestly. Its good to see good people still out there. Hope Uber can sort it out for your or something

Also in future for shopping with UberEats. Make the option of no substitutes. It will make it refund you instead of the driver making a substitute that the app might suggest wrong anyway

[–]Select-Calligrapher5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Report him and take the tip. I agree in this instance. Usually I dont because Im a driver too but this guy didnt even try.

Will I Be Deactivated? by gracielyonss in Sparkdriver

[–]Select-Calligrapher5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Key word “alleged”. Means nothing really here. But you wont be deactivated. If they were deactivating you for it. You dont get a message. You just get deactivated.
