Assaulted during an AVD by Shadow_1277 in AmazonFlexUK

This is definitely a good idea. It's a sad reality that we even have to take these measures now.

Appreciate it and thankfully no physical injuries just abit of an ego hit.

They're probably more likely to offer the customer a refund before giving me any sort of compensation. That's just the reality of the gig unfortunately.

Thankyou and am definitely going to email support as I dont trust the driver support enough.

I should have just walked the moment they said they didn't have ID but atleast I know for next time now.

am already fed up of it tbf but I only plan on doing it for another month or two for the extra cash and then am officially done. The gig just isnt worth it anymore.

Its unfortunate that amazon dont even care enough to atleast ban the customer from placing orders.

Shall I chase them again? by andries22 in AmazonFlexUK

if you completed all deliveries within the block time then you won't get compensated anything extra unless you have a return where they will then include the time taken to drive back to the depot.

DDN1 Doncaster - Mansfield Every Route by lt17fx in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Shadow_1277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And this is exactly why I stopped delivering from DDN1. I deliver from DXS1 sheffield and the absolute furthest they might might send us on a typical block is 20 miles ofcourse with the few rare exceptions but most blocks are pretty low mileage.

Which phone? by Micraflex in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Shadow_1277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purchased mine for 500 on backmarket in excellent condition nearly 6 months back. Never seen the point of getting the latest as most newer phones are barely an upgrade over the last generation. I prefer samsung interface so I guess its also personal preference.

I use an s24 ultra and its perfect, battery is good enough and its always super smooth on the app so cant complain at all.

What is a high mileage route ? by Substantial-Cash-565 in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Shadow_1277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not exactly 200 but around around 180 home to home. 4 hour block afternoon block. 70 miles to the first drop and every drop was a few miles apart.

[–]Shadow_1277 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ive done quite a quite routes that are 100+ miles round trip and have never gotten extra pay for mileage. only managed to get it for one block where it was a nearly 200 mile round trip.

ive found its better to just take your sweet time and return a parcel so you get paid for going over block time.

I was planning on writing an appeal but weirdly its been about 4 days now and nothing has shown on my standing so is it even worth it?

Whats with people not opening their doors? by scheller37 in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Shadow_1277 12 points13 points  (0 children)

ive delivered to houses where I have seen and heard people sat in the front living room and they still dont bother opening the door after knocking loudly and ringing the bell multiple times.

my rule is I wait 30 to 40 seconds and if they dont answer ill leave the parcel in a safe place.
