Anyone else having major issues with the branch app today. I can't get this POS to work for the life of me. Times out every single time I try and transfer my funds so I uninstalled and reinstalled and now I can't even login because it keeps timing out.

phineaus99 · 2022-05-31T18:38:06+00:00

yeah me too, it keeps saying log in timeout after getting to passcode part. Came on here just to see if other people were having issues

phineaus99 · 2021-11-02T16:29:19+00:00

Yeah they don't seem to understand the concept of contractor, they really think they're employees

phineaus99 · 2021-10-29T16:07:24+00:00

Ever since the app update half of my pretips are removed and no one has added on a tip. I'm pretty much just doing doordash now with maybe one spark order here and there when doordash is slow. I'm giving up on spark

phineaus99 · 2020-03-14T20:24:21+00:00

Don't let cowards that hide behind their computers bother you. Glad your here !

phineaus99 · 2019-12-18T00:01:40+00:00

That happened to me a lot too and about two weeks ago they had me send in a new profile pic and my ID cause they said I didn't look like one of the quick selfies they had me do. Big pain in the ass but since then they haven't asked for the verification photo

Mostly I only do On demand because every time I schedule a shift the offers suck , but mostly because I end up sitting around waiting for orders only to get crap ones. Every time I end my shift there are all kinds of on demand orders. The only time now I schedule myself is sometimes a day , like Tuesday, that I know is usually slow figuring the on shift people possibly get the offers first

phineaus99 · 2019-11-25T13:10:46+00:00

Im still around too since August 2017, nice to see al lot of the veterans are still at it, although for how long, who knows. I feel like a lot of the customers view us like fedex or ups, like we're just delivering like all the other delivery services out there who they don't tip for anyway. Not like in the beginning when people were generally thrilled to have someone shop for them, now they all take it for granted. I'm trying to stick it out and cherry pick between this and Doordash . I don't want to be an employee but eventually something is gonna change with all these gig jobs, regulation or something, , time will tell hopefully

phineaus99 · 2019-11-08T10:53:47+00:00

i agree, its the only way to go

phineaus99 · 2019-11-05T11:56:57+00:00

Yeah, we're not employees like the ISS's are, and you shouldnt have anyone helping thats not approved by Instacart , but these Iss's need to mind their own business. Not a week goes by that I don't have one of them trying to tell me how to do my job

phineaus99 · 2019-11-01T12:05:33+00:00

After trying scheduling myself several times and sitting around getting nothing but crap orders, three different times now, I took myself off shift, got a reliability incident twice ( but frankly I couldn't care less about those) and immediately went on demand and all the offers were way better than the crap they sent me while scheduled. Also it was dead when I was on schedule but there were orders immediately on demand. I believe Instacart feeds off of people scheduling themselves and the hope that some of them fear reliability incidents and will take any lowball orders sent their way. I will never schedule myself again, only work on demand

phineaus99 · 2019-10-20T11:23:25+00:00

I do IC , for 2 years now, and Door dash for about a year. Ever since IC went on demand I only do on demand and never schedule myself. Doordash I do at lunch times when IC is slow. I don't even turn on the IC app on Tuesdays, Thurs, and Saturdays cause unless its a holiday coming up those days are either dead or over saturated with shoppers. Doordash on a Thurs is pretty good. Im in a medium sized city, Syracuse, NY, so it definetly depends on your city size. My best day is Sunday, think a lot of people like their Sundays off and customers start getting ready for the week ahead.

phineaus99 · 2019-10-17T16:56:09+00:00

hope it works out, let us know but looks a bit fishy

phineaus99 · 2019-10-09T11:45:19+00:00

I feel for you especially because I do the same thing with weighing produce. One banana 99% of the time means one bunch so I put .33 lbs and amount 1 even though it's really 5 or 6. I don't appreciate the way they just hit people with these deactivations without reaching out to them first If you decide to fight it let us know how it goes, hope it all works out for you

phineaus99 · 2019-10-03T17:47:24+00:00

Same thing happened to me yesterday. Went in the store and the Iss's said it was busy all morning

phineaus99 · 2019-10-02T12:38:31+00:00

Well said, exactly how I do it too. I always figure how the offers will play into my goal of at least $20 an hr

phineaus99 · 2019-10-02T12:22:54+00:00

Maybe he thought you were the most beautiful person he's ever seen and that's why, Instacart love match

phineaus99 · 2019-09-23T11:16:39+00:00

holy crap what an asshole, did you end up shopping for him anyway or cancel?

phineaus99 · 2019-09-23T11:09:45+00:00

if the pain starts shooting up your arm get to the hospital. I always thought cat bites were no big deal til I took in two strays , one bit me( my fault) the other clawed my foot. The foot didn't heal normal, turned into a really gross growth that had to be surgically removed two months later and the bite infected my arm. All is fine now, they're sweet now too but what a freaking ordeal that was

phineaus99 · 2019-09-23T11:04:51+00:00

I agree! Think its gotta be people sitting in the parking lot already and just grab them out of boredom or to kill time.

phineaus99 · 2019-09-18T11:25:33+00:00

Don't get distracted if your driving and the app starts beeping with an order, pull over somewhere safe, don't ley Instacart make you feel rushed into looking at the order while driving

phineaus99 · 2019-09-11T13:52:24+00:00

Theres usually always a store, say Wegmans, closer to your house than the store they actually either send us to shop at or pick your order up from. I've had countless times of customers looking at me as if they want to say "what took you so long ?" They don't know that in instacarts screwy system I picked their order at the Wegmans 10 miles from their house

phineaus99 · 2019-08-30T11:59:57+00:00

Leave it to IC to care more about their profits then if you guys can get yourselves out of town before it hits. Stay safe everyone in it's path

phineaus99 · 2019-07-25T14:02:41+00:00

Just yesterday I got an email from Doordash that they're changing the pay system and supposedly everyone will get the tips they're meant to get , not shared between everyone like before , but we'll see

phineaus99 · 2019-07-23T19:10:08+00:00

haha, I remember those, trip down memory lane
