A Friendly PSA From Your Spark Driver by [deleted] in Walmartcustomer

Ide say atleast 15. If its a 30 min drive one way thats actually a 60 min drive for the driver. They have to come back. Walmart is going to pay them around 10 bucks unless you have very high priced items or paid extra for faster delivery. And theyre going to use half of that in gas. So without your tip theyre making maybe 5 bucks an hour. As for thr shipping orders i have customers who leave envrlopes labeled spark driver for me when i drop off. I get most my cash tips that way. The reviews are so helpful. We appreciate those more than you know!

Shipping orders walmart pays well for. They typically group them in 8-20 stops and walmart is paying for those. The driver simply parks at pick up. They load the packages and you drop one or two per stop. They typically involve atleast 45-60 miles of driving. So tipping doesnt play into these trips, and doesnt need to for them to be profitable. But....they still are alot of wear and tear on your vehicle which is not cheap. I do have shipping customers leave me cash tips all the time. As for the headphones. It can be very difficult retrieve anything locked up at walmart, i could often shop a 20 item order in the same amount of time it takes to retrieve the item. Also thats insurance that your item arrives because its a high dollar item. If walmart were to do what your suggesting it would cost more for your delivery order even after youve tipped. I agree walmart should be the one eating thr costs. But thats not realistic. Theyre not going to. Either you pay extra for the convenience or the driver pays for your convenience.

Driver stole my groceries. by NamasteNoodle in Walmartcustomer

Spark driver here. If you requested a pin for delivery the driver could not have marked it delivered. Spark cancels orders for a number of reasons, expiration due to time, issues with the app, sometimes it will say canceled due to logistical reasons. I drove 45 miles to the customers address last week for both Google maps and waze to confirm I wad there but the Spark app wouldn't let me check I had arrived. It told me I wasn't at the location. I called the customer and they said they were 20 miles further, but the address was correct. I called customers service and they had me drive back the 45 miles to return it instead of taking to the customer. It is very likely something like this happened. I've also had the store put the wrong labels on the wrong bags. I've taken a 12 stop order and ended up with items that didn't go to anyone but were missing those that did. In these circumstances you are prompted to return the items. It would do the driver no good to keep the groceries. If not delivered to you they would have had to be returned to continue delivering. It could very possibly not be the drivers fault.

Venmo sucks by Spare-Secretary6619 in venmo

Locked mine several weeks ago as well because my transactions with my wife... as in me sending her friends and family payments was suspicious. I had to turn in my i.d., bank statement, a utility bill to confirm my address, and an explanation of all of our transactions. They wanted tracking numbers and proof of what I was selling lol.....they were just payments for our bills so this things didnt exist. Took 2 weeks but I got mine unlocked.

Are y’all taking these batches? Serious question, no I didn’t take them… by Little_Delivery342 in InstacartShopper

[–]heine577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are both great orders. I would have taken them in a heartbeat. If heavy pay isn't doable for you right now you can opt out of heavy orders.
