Frustrated!

My niece sent my mom a birthday gift of donuts. The app showed that the order would be delivered at 4:55. I was at the door. No cars showed up, but suddenly the status changed to delivered. I searched around the house but nothing had been delivered. I tried calling the driver but he didnt respond.

When I used the help feature in the app. a live chat agent said that he would show me options and told me if I wanted a refund. I complained that my mom's birthday was ruined and was looking forward to receiving the gift from her grand daughter. The agent apologized and said he would explain my options when suddenly in the middle of the chat he said that there were technical issues and at this time they could not help. He said to contact them later and ended the chat. I tried later but the app asked me to leave a message.

This is strange and unaccpetable. What just happened? Is Ubereats always like that?

What can I do?

Random Wire

Hello,

I am a new homeowner. A couple of weeks ago, the gardeners cleaned out the front yard and pulled out all the shrubs and bushes. After they left, I noticed a loose random wire with one open end in the air. I don't know if the gardeners did that or it had always been there. I tested the wire and the tester showed there was no electricity in it. So I thought it was dead.

Today, some landscapers were clearing the gound and covering it with pebbles. They told me that one of their rakes caught the wire and it had electricty. We tested it again and again but no electricity so they cut the wire short and asked me for tape.

After a few minutes I went to the garage and noticed that none of the outlets and appliances in the garage have power. The firdge, washer and the garage door to be specific. The AC and water heater still work. I flipped all the breakers and back. No change!

What just happened. Is the damage extensive?

I have uploaded a picture of the random wire and the breakers.

Thank you for your help.

Update: Thank you for your responses everyone. Now I know that this should be taken care of immediately. I booked a service through my home warranty insurance. I hope they cover at least part of the expenses.
