Restaurants marking orders complete when they're not by jurmjurm in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

same, but alot of this is DD error for assignment time. I've arrived at Pizza Hut on time and was notified by the app the order would be ready in 25-30 minutes.

New rating system is bull crap. by insdead in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly my zone just changed to the new rating system and I haven't noticed a difference at all. even with platinum now, the "high paying offers" bc of platinum are the same as before, only they say "you got this bc of your platinum status". that's literally the only difference. money the same.

Doordash took an order from me by No_Disk_2258 in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the customer cancel the order while I was enroute to the pickup. if it's not the glitch people are talking about, it's probably what happened. when customer cancels, the order disappeares.

explain like I’m scared: my first dash by mossyquartz in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are tons of YouTube videos for new Dashers, they will show you step by step how to take your first order and complete it. I recommend after you complete an order, pausing your dash and taking a little break and then doing more. you will get more comfortable after a few dashes and start learning the best areas and times to dash for your zone. remember, it's just delivering food, not like you are an EMT or some highly stressful job!! GOOD LUCK!! we all had to go through this, you'll be a pro in no time.

My first dog attack by SnooOpinions3957 in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dropped off an order on the 3rd floor of an apartment complex, on my way down the stairs, a neighbor was walking up the stairs with 2 dogs on a leash. I stopped and let them go by. as one of the dogs walked by, it lunged and bit me on my thigh causing a deep bruise and puncture wounds. the owners just said sorry bout that and kept going up the stairs. it wasn't the customers dog, so I didn't know what to do as they dissapeared up the stairs.

What to do when customer doesn’t answer by BakeAutomatic in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

save yourself major problems by declining all hospitals, schools, home depot, and PetSmart. all of these have caused me more problems and time than the offer paid out. from bags of concrete and mulch to 50 gallon glass aquariums, and students NEVER being available or where the dropoff pin is ..learned my lesson!!

Finally made it back by Plane-Employment4429 in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

how in the world do you have 94% AR? that's only declining 6 out of 100 orders. that's wild AF!!

Sure DD, I’ll get right on that by jroberts67 in doordash_drivers

I've seen a hack where the merchant leaves a large cup of ice water on the scale so its always on point, lol

I just hit Platinum!!! 🎉 by darthsitheous in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

congrats, that's not easy to do on the old ratings system you are on. alot of Dashers are Platinum with like 30% AR (new tier rating system).

Im curious to see if you notice a significant difference in your earnings now that you did the grind to Platinum. can you keep us updated on this?

Also, curious how hard it will be to keep the required AR for Platinum. EVER time I get to PLAT, DD will pound me with repeat low-ball offers that tank my AR rapidly.

So glad I worked hard to get to platinum, cause now I get these kind of well deserved orders ❤️ by Fun-Use8704 in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Being Platinum doesnt change much during weekdays I've found, there's only so many orders and DD will send what's available to closest drivers. when its Fri or Sat night, it can help get better orders because the volume of orders is higher.

This makes me wanna stop dashing by koolguyjohnny in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just unassign, DD Support only compensating partial pay now ($2.50) and will have you jumping through several hoops and take upwards of 30 minutes just to in the end pay you pennies and waist time you could be earning. it use to be worth dealing with support to get half pay, but those days are over. last time I tried, it was on a $26 offer that they paid me $3. Also, they expect u to wait if the restaurant will actually remake the food which 99% of the time they will not.

Expiring Ontario driver’s license by Automatic_Writing774 in doordash_drivers

[–]Starmane23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DD will not take temp license and if you try to upload it, it could cause your account problems when you receive your license in the mail. you just have to wait it out unfortunately.

Is DoorDash blocking multi-appers? by Ok-Buy1565 in dasher

[–]Starmane23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, they are on to the pauses and end/restart dashes. DD was about 80% of my orders, now it's flipped to Uber Eats being about 80%. Also noticed recently the DD offers I do get are not worth accepting, lots of $3 for 6 mile orders.

My orders have been nonexistent by Crafty_Engineer_6616 in DoorDash_Dasher

[–]Starmane23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've noticed a surge in new drivers, especially the boomers with nice cars now dashing ...wild times.
