What an insanely stupid decision to not allow us to reject orders that are marked as ready when so many restaurants falsely mark orders as ready.

I just got stuck on an order for 20 minutes at McDonald's because they didn't have the order in their system and they automark all orders as ready immediately upon pulling them out of the machine. Eventually a worker just made the order from the item list on my phone. I tried to call support and waited 7 minutes before giving up. I wonder why they're so busy at the moment...

Whoever made this decision is completely out of touch with reality. These ignorant idiots need to spend some time as a deliveroo rider before they make such impactful decisions. If this implementation stays and they don't crack down on false ready markings, this will cause a catastrophic loss of efficiency. I can't believe this was put through without considering this. I hope the deluge of rider support phonecalls requesting manual rejections has made them realise their mistake. Fuckings morons.

It's not a glitch, they literally just want us to work for free

I've seen people say on here that doubles for 2.90 or 3.15 is just a glitch but I don't think that's the case anymore. I've had a couple of these recently and they always happen when the fees become extremely shit. I honestly think they're just trying it on, hoping some idiot who doesn't know how to reject one of the orders will take them both.

I remember posts talking about a 'new low' for rider fees well this is it, this is the lowest it gets guys.. fucking 0p lmao. I don't even care, I make a fucking killing doing this job. I guess deliveroo are furious that I'm making so much money and want to put a stop to it.

ID check booted me offline as I was accepting an order

Unbelievably stupid design to allow if checks to happen when you're actively receiving an order. Now I've lost that order and have to wait for another and it's not busy enough that that isn't inconsequential. I'm fucking fed up of these checks, they occur within half an hour of me doing a check sometimes. Now I'm losing money because of this bullshit.
