Am I overreacting about this pick up photo?

Am I overreacting about this pick up photo?

I've been staring at this pickup photo for way too long, replaying every detail and wondering if my gut feeling is justified or if I'm just being paranoid. My friends say it's not a big deal, but something about the angle or the timing keeps nagging at me. So tell me honestly, am I overreacting about this pick up photo?

How me and Mike became best friends

Little does Mike know I have 10 more doordash gift cards, he will see me more often than he thinks.

Great dasher!!

I think my dasher is having a better night than I am. lol 😂
In all seriousness, he followed the directions perfectly. Literally brought it straight to my hotel room with zero issues. I originally tipped 5$ and then another $5 on top of that for a $20 order because he was so nice, polite, and knows how to follow directions. The food was still fresh on top of that. Keep it up, if you see this!!

Looks like my dasher tossed my pizza

" After further review your order is ineligible for a refund "

Please stop doing this.

The last couple times I've ordered food, my stuff has a heavy smell of weed on it. The food bag, inside the bag, and the food itself.

If you are delivering food for people, you are at work. Not everyone likes that smell, especially with their food covered in it.

Can people have the courtesy to not hotbox while they have someone else's food they're delivering? Does this happen with anyone else??

They gave me the bag?

I ordered pizza hut and they gave me the WHOLE bag? Should we contact someone? Is this just a dub?

Door dasher sent me this message

I ordered door dash on my laptop and this is what he said. I took a picture of it. ​ I reported him to door dash. In all the years I've used door dash, I've never encountered this issue. ​Yes, the tip wasnt the best, but he also agreed to that amount when he accepted my order. He could've declined. the restaurant is not very far from my house. I ate some of the food but.. something didnt seem quite right when I bit into the chicken. I ended up throwing it out because it looked suspicious. door dash didn't refund my order. they just sent me $5 in apology credits.

I know, the tip could've been better. I usually tip more, but with the costs of fees on this order, and considering how much the food actually costs (not considering door dash fees), i thought this was fair. this is a side hustle for many people. it's not supposed to be a full time job. which doesn't necessarily mean this isn't valid, but he knew what he was walking into when he agreed to take my order.

some people don't tip AT ALL! they leave 0$ in tips. if anything, door dash should actually pay their workers a decent wage without the dasher needing to rely on tips just to get by.

I feel bad for him, but begging for tips or guilt tripping the customer to tip more is still foolish to me.

First bad customer

Had this order for a taco place I do deliveries for a lot. Customer asked to make sure the bag was stickered and stapled closed. I said sure but I know this place gives takeout in plastic bags, so I likely couldn't get those. I asked anyway and guy behind the counter just said "I don't know" and gave me the plastic bag tied in a knot. I told her and she asked for the sticker. Told her again. Eventually I got a "fine if it's double tied".

Halfway there (~15 min drive) and she asks me if I'm otw. I say yes and that she should be able to see my location in the app.

I get there and drop off instructions are "call me (enter personal phone number here". She sends me "I'm outside." I get out and walk up to her, asked order name, and she looked at me like I was a nuisance.

By the way, no tip. You can't be picky and a cheapskate, Andrea /ref (not her name)

“I’m still waiting for your order”

That’s the message I got from my dasher after he claims he’s been waiting at Burger King for 30 mins already, but the map shows him driving all over town a mile away. Why doesn’t DoorDash let you remove the tip?

Edit: He finally picked up the food and now is driving in the opposite direction from my location. 🤦‍♂️

Ad a door dash driver, never making the mistake of ordering from them again

Thanks bro. Using someone else's account (the driver was supposed to be a woman with a very white name and was instead a large black man, thats not even what I'm upset about, I just thought that part was funny). Bro double teamed blocking the door with another delivery service delivering to another apartment in my building.

Had to shove my way out the door to find a lemon with holes in it (obviously bitten by bugs based on the holes), and 3 bright green bananas. Luckily the rest of my stuff was mostly ok, tortillas were folded in a bag and milk is close to the expire date (idk how he even found one that close). Im low in potassium, now I gotta wait to eat the bananas ):

I promise it's not rocket science, Im a door dash driver with messed up joints, and migraines that can feel like I'm having a stroke sometimes, I have POTS and get dizzy from being on my feet too long. No one has an excuse for doing this, its just pure selfishness and petty AF.

(I also tipped well, 9 dollars for .25 mile, I regret the tip)

Also thanks door dash for the refund of 35 cents. Helpful.

Only ordered because I had 15 dollars off, so I ordered 15 dollars worth of stuff and tipped what I could.

DoorDash Shady Backdoor “Policy”

Leaving DoorDash? Here is your sign!

I am disabled and often use DoorDash services and I have for 3 years. So that naturally means mistakes here and there. Recently, DoorDash stopped resolving my orders with 0 explanations or solutions moving forward. I simply want my item, so just work with me on resolving. I don’t care about compensation, if you don’t want to do credits or refunds, get my product somehow!

It seems there’s a refund cap on each account and if that cap is reached, they bombard you with excuses. They don’t explain anything to you and just leave you to deal with the mess yourself. They said there’s a policy but outrightly refused to quote the policy. Essentially, once DoorDash has capped you, you are on your own with any order mistakes. Especially for the long-term users, elderly, sick, and disabled; FUNDS ARE LOW, DON’T WASTE IT ON DOORDASH. Spend at your own risk.

The cap happened in my last two orders and was confirmed with my most recent and obviously FINAL order. If you look at the screenshots, you’ll see how quickly they shut down the chat when I asked for explanations and a way forward. If that isn’t shady, I don’t know what is.

EDIT: I spoke with customer care and they verified that errors in my order moving forward will not be resolved (refund/compensation) because of my compensation history. The compensation limit reached by my account has no duration.

If this is your situation, DD is saying “Sayonara B”

Am I being pranked?

The picture speaks for itself. These offers have been so frustrating lately. Especially with the gas prices I legit don’t understand how this is legal.

Free $20??

I wasn’t paying attention and ordered from a location too far away(my fault) and hadn’t even waited long before canceling, I just knew that a dasher wouldn’t accept. The agent gave me $20 in additional credits, like wtf?

Food not delivered and flipped off by driver

This story is my friend's and not mine, but i figured I would ask yall. So food was ordered and my buddy got the notification of the delivery with a photo. He went to go grab his food, and as he opened the door, the dasher was walking away with the food flipping him off. She then left. He got a refund and reported the dasher, but is this a common thing? Is this done to just get free food or what? Ive ordered doordash a lot on work trips and have never seen this
