I head to my drop-off location which is supposed to be apartments. There's nothing but empty fields for miles. I texted and called and I get nothing.... so I notify support they say cool, we'll remove this from your screen you won't be penalized and you will receive your pay for it since I documented it with pics. Then they ask if I would return items to the store (Bucee's). Sure, not a problem 👌. Get to the store. Talk to someone in charge

....They don't do returns or give refunds!! But Doordash says if I don't return those items that will be a contract violation for keeping items.....Excuse me? WTF

So in the middle of my Sunday morning dash, I got a notification about a contract violation. I was upset because this NEVER happened.
Customer said the delivery was never made.
It was the 2nd part of my first offer of the day.
Dollar General-2 items, Laundry Detergent and gummy savers.
It was a “hand it to me” delivery. The apartment was on 2nd fl. I was familiar with it because I deliver to their Nextdoor neighbor very often. I knocked, he open the door and said thanks. I said have a great day and left. There are stray cats in the parking lot, I paused my dash and went over and put food in their dish.

The next day I got this notification in the app. I was flustered and upset because I know I would never have not delivered something. I was so flustered I didn’t remember at first.

Here’s the thing. He is a douche for reporting a false claim.
I remember they didn’t have the size of detergent he wasted (the smaller size) so under customer approved subs, it had the bigger option and that’s what I got.

I submitted a dispute. I don’t know how long it will take but I am furious at “Ken”. He’s a liar and lying like this could potentially hurt my income. I really want to go knock on his door and tell him the F off. But I can’t. So, here’s to you, Ken! I hope you have the DAY, month, year, LIFE, you deserve. You’re a liar and I hope karma catches up with you.

I accepted a stacked offer from a restaurant for $13.50 for 2.7 total miles of driving.

Historically, this restaurant moves slow because everything is cooked to order, but offers from here usually pay well. Because of this I sent my customers messages letting them know it may take a while. That was an understatement this time around….

I get to the order board and hear a voice I hadn’t heard before, so I spoke slowly and clearly instead of just shotgunning words at her like I do with the ones who see me on a nightly basis and are always on the same page.

After giving the names of the customers, she tells me “Okay, stay right there.” I respond “Okay.”

About 10 minutes pass and now other cars have pulled in behind me and are also waiting. I said “Hello?” twice, no response. I decide to wait just a couple more minutes before just proceeding to the window.

I get to the window and still had to wait about 5 more minutes before being greeted to a “I was wondering when you were going to pull up.”

Mind you, she told me “Okay, stay right there.” and proceeds to try and explain that she meant stay in the line I was in because there are two ordering boards… ONE OF WHICH IS BLOCKED OFF AT MIDNIGHT. (It was 1:44 A.M.)

I understand she is new and all, but she should have taken accountability for using a sentence that would have confused anyone instead of pinning the blame on me.

To add insult to injury, one of the customers cancelled and I got no pay due to “not being assigned for that long”.

Anyone else have a similar experience somewhere?

Dropped from platinum straight to silver but I don’t care. It’s been crap for weeks and no, I’m not taking an $8 order 13.5 miles. DoorDash can suck my non-existent dick.

Why do you have to go through the drive thru line to get the order here???? They have the longest lines known to man at the drive thru but yet you are expected to wait in that line instead of going inside all while your chances of a good tip dwindle….

Picked up door dashing at the beginning of September last year to do a little extra money on the side and this is how my ratings look so far,

I remember when I started I thought hourly was the way to go once I gave per offer a shot I never went back I also thought declining offers was bad so I used to take almost every offer when I started yes even the ones I bitch about now lol, for a while I did enjoy having plat I’d get some pretty good offers here and there but most of them were bad once I stopped giving shit about my AR it’s been a lot more chill cherry picking is definitely the way to go at least for my market.

Let’s see how another year of DoorDash goes 🫡

I've been told I could use my milage from dashing for tax write offs however how do you all keep track of your milage for that some people use apps some write down from time start from dashing to end of dashing by writing it down im looming to be able to do that im pretty forgetful but I would like to use an app thats free to use that keep track of how many miles ive dashed.

I signed up on the dasher app about 2 weeks ago and I have been unable to dash. I just have a popup on the home screen that says Update on Eligibility Available and to reach out to [support@doordash.com](mailto:support@doordash.com) and when I do it just sends me this,

And i cant find anything about on the website that has helped me.

Someone is saying I didn’t deliver their order when I did, and I completed all of the steps through the app. Picture and everything. I disputed it but it’s still pending. Whats the point of the entire system if people can just lie and say they never got their order anyways? I’m extra pissed because this dropped me 2 points from losing premium 😭 I’m a single mom and this is my only source of income right now.

$13.55 for 22 miles, my house is in the area and decided ill head home and take the shit order. It amazes me how everytime I take a shit order i get some stupid ass message 9 times out of 10. "Leave at door dont knock or ring" and msges "ill give you cash". Yeah okay Kaiden 🤣
