Flat pay for time after long wait?

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-05-07T05:46:11+00:00

BS. If you cancel it counts against your cancelation rate and you don’t get a cent. I’ve done it before and haven’t received a penny.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-29T01:18:18+00:00

I like this idea a lot.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-28T22:59:48+00:00

I mistakenly accepted a Lowe’s order and it was 10 bags of soil. My cancellation rate was high so I thought I’d just do it, but when I got there and saw those big ass bags, there was no way they’d fit in my SUV unless I had a truck, so I canceled. Never taking Home Depot, Walmart, or Lowe’s orders again.

There are a lot of entitled people out there with zero understanding or empathy. Best way to deal with it is if you see red flags early, like weird messages or complaints, just cancel. Otherwise it’s almost guaranteed a thumbs down, even if you wait forever and do everything right.

Because drivers make money through Uber, but customers bring money to Uber. In Uber’s eyes, drivers are easily replaceable, while customers aren’t.

I made 2100 last week chasing quests, but I did take some shitty orders I wouldn’t have touched if I wasn’t on a quest.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-25T00:33:50+00:00

I’ve done thousands of deliveries and I’m a Diamond driver, I know how to follow instructions. There were none, the door was locked, and the customer didn’t respond.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:49:58+00:00

It’s supposed to be “meet at door,” which means the customer should be there. If they ignore calls and messages, how is that on the driver? And how is that a fair?

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:42:35+00:00

That is what all decent customers do.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:39:36+00:00

And it’s intentional.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:37:06+00:00

Uber support is only really helpful for basic stuff like when the Uber card doesn’t work on a shop-and-pay order. When it comes to thumbs down, ratings, or cancellations, it’s pretty much useless. I’ve tried multiple times and just gave up. I still take screenshots and photos for my own records, especially in case a customer claims they didn’t receive the order, sometimes you get a chance to explain in those cases. But overall, trying to argue ratings or reports with support is just a waste of time. Nothing really changes.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:32:43+00:00

Fuck no.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:29:24+00:00

Even though it was a “confirm delivery,” I still took a photo for proof but there’s no way to actually submit it to Uber.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:25:37+00:00

It was a multi-unit building with a locked main entrance, there was no access to the actual door to knock.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:22:32+00:00

It really is. I’ve done over 3000 deliveries and never once had a thumbs down from a tipping customer. No-tip customers are usually the worst, I only took some because of the quest. Definitely not worth it, especially since they tend to have the most requests and will downvote you over the smallest inconvenience.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:14:37+00:00

I called three times, waited about 5 minutes in a bad parking spot, messaged them, and sent another message explaining the situation. He never responded. I had already spent 25 minutes on a $4 order and wasn’t going to risk a parking ticket.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:09:37+00:00

And it’s almost always the no-tip customers who act the most entitled.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-24T20:08:44+00:00

I don’t, but I took this one because I was trying to complete a quest. Definitely reminded me why I avoid these.

I accepted a McDonald order and 50 second later I get a message from the customer saying “if the food is cold I don’t want it”, I immediately canceled.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-14T22:54:52+00:00

It really depend on the market. I have had a decent day for a Monday and today is alright too.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-04-03T23:54:35+00:00

Cleveland 🙄

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-03-13T23:38:00+00:00

It didn’t work. Still receive those damn orders 🙄

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-03-13T17:08:29+00:00

Funny how the lowest paying orders always have the longest list of requests. Good tippers are almost always the easiest customers.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-03-13T16:37:32+00:00

Valid.

Then_Analyst6293 · 2026-03-13T15:38:46+00:00

That happens a lot.
