I made the mistake at the 1st of the month once. The 1st landed on a Friday. DoorDash took me to that part of town where the welfare checks come in on the 1st. Omg. There was literally a party in the streets. People ordering large Taco Bell and liquor and not tipping, took me 30 mins to navigate my way thru on just ONE order. I’ll never do that again 😅
I started getting order confirmation photos a lot more recently (both as a driver and as a customer). As a driver I like that, if you're doing a stacked order, right before you drop off an order the app shows you the photo of the order you have to drop off. I don't need it but I do like the reassurance that I'm holding the right bag. As a customer, it's kind of weird. I'm probably getting that because I report missing stuff from orders fairly often for refunds. That was usually with orders like McDonalds or Wendys, who seal their food bags. So if food is missing inside the bag, this feature won't fix that. Though, as a drivers, it's kind of nice that I have photo evidence of not tampering with the bag and shouldn't hurt my rating. I just wish we didn't need these features in the first place.
I got that DD prompt for the first time this week. I think it's for bad customers reporting missing/incorrect food, causing us more work so DD doesn't have to lose an account
Lady at Wendy’s last night wouldn’t let me take a pic of the receipt without confirming the order first literally holding the baconator hostage what a sad existence
I love the suggestion of keeping napkins. I have a glove box full of straws from every imaginable restaurant in my area. They have come in handy many times.
I've had that prompt for awhile. I like it to protect me from customers saying they did not receive their food then getting a contract violation. I was getting fake violations from BS customers a couple years ago quite a bit. None of them stuck, but I haven't had any issues ever since this new feature started for me sometime last year.
I find that when I have to take pictures before it's to fast food places that constantly make mistakes. But sometimes it's random and sometimes it doesn't happen at all.
that picture of the receipt started popping up for me in early august. Its random. it also has you 'confirm' the order as the one you are delivering at that step. even if its only ONE order not two.. lol. i think its because of problem customers
It’s only for customers who’ve said they didn’t receive the correct order before. So when you take a picture of the receipt they’ll think twice about lying and it becomes a issue with the store and not DD
I had a pick up from a restaurant (not fast food) that required a pic of the receipt then after dropping that order off I received another order from the same restaurant but no pic was required. So, I’m guessing the orders that require it are the customers that always claim they’re missing items or received the wrong order. As far as keeping napkins etc, that’s reserved for customers that tip.. I’m not providing anything extra for nothing.
another weird one is every so often i get one where at drop off a customer (not an alcohol order) has to take my phone and type out their name in one box. and then sign their name in another. happened 3x in the last month.
I had that happen to me last week. I had to confirm by taking apicture upon pickup. Thought it was also weird but whatever. Doesn't happen all the time.
I quit DD due to not being able to sign on. Use tone a Top Dasher but now need to schedule. Doesn't work for me. Did it for 4 years. Maybe I'll check the app once on a while and maybe things will get better.
When you talk about delivery apps, you feel like the person will become a businessman. All these companies exploit people, as they work with their cars.Let's calculate how much he loses per day in fuel, food, car maintenance, oil change, car insurance
It's all trash lately. For over 4 years I was always a Top Dasher and Platinum Driver. Down to Gold. They are sending me trash and it takes forever to get the first offer. They have oversaturated the market. It really pisses me off due to the fact that I was one of the first drivers in my market. My days of $200 are gone. I'm doing business with DeliverThat and Dlivd. Much better money and less wear and tear for my car. And I don't spend the whole time cursing. Taking pictures of receipts and prompts about how to pick fruit is for all the idiots that are out there. I'm tired of not being appreciated for my efforts to make sure that the customer is happy.
I do DD, dilvrd and deliver that. I gave up on UE bc the offers they give me are horrible. I get more deliverthat offers than dilvrd, but I just did order # 6 for deliverthat. 😁 Hoping to get to the prescheduled tier.

I always find the days around the 1st of the month to be a bit slower. Rent or mortgage is often due, so folks aren't ordering as much.
Makes sense but oddly I had the best Tuesday ever this week! 🤷🏻♀️ (afternoon and evening)

I never work on Tuesday or Wednesday, those days are super slow in my market
I find the 2-5pm hours in my market are really good all the full timers work from 10-2 then take a break until dinner

Tuesday slowest day of the week
Shoot, $14 an hour is the norm for me
I see the take a picture of receipt all the time in my area

I mostly see pictures of receipts if i have a stacked order. "You got to keep them separated."
The Offspring
I’ve had 2 orders where I had to take a photo of, both were non-tipping.. I suspect that the customer and/or the merchant have had issues in the past…

I had to take a picture of the receipt yesterday too.
I started getting them this week as well. In KY
you're comparing to a tuesday though. that is traditionally the slowest day of the week in the culinary business.
I got that on Sunday from DoorDash on a couple of orders.
I had to do the receipt pic for a stacked order the other day when I was dashing. But, it didn’t ask for anymore pics after that.
Tuesdays can be so slow in my area. My availability is really only January thru mid April though.
I made 35 a hour doing door dash on busy times 25 on slow times and i work from like 8pm to like 4am
another weird one is every so often i get one where at drop off a customer (not an alcohol order) has to take my phone and type out their name in one box. and then sign their name in another. happened 3x in the last month.
That means they’ve reported orders missing in the past
Dinner is a winner 🥇
I dash only by the hour. Traffic is a big one but our offers are just crap. Tips are sketchy and markets have definitely been down for offers.
Yeah that's new here in Orlando also I seen now doordash asking for a PIN number like Uber eats my first time seeing that
Hey Mike I have been getting that a lot lately the past 3 months 😮
had to take a pic of receipt about 6 orders out of 15 a few days ago and then non over next 50+ orders. odd
In my market I usually on DD Friday night about 5:30pm till 8pm and Saturday Sunday 6am-12pm i usually make out pretty good

My wife and i just retired. She does not drive my empty ford transit van. Can we work as a team? She navigate and i drive? Thank you, Stephen
Shouldn’t be a problem.
new subscriber I like your videos i; 'm dashing here in Florida.
north carolina dasher...i've always had the "take a photo of receipt" for certain orders though not every order.
I'm on Winston Salem nc and it's been having me do it too

I got 2 of those today but they were only for my Sonic orders
Oh yes I started seeing this a month ago in Fort Worth.
I have been getting this in my markets in Ohio for the last week or so.
Tuesdays are slow
Why do I get a 1 rating? I wish it would tell me who or why. I thought I did good then woke up to a 1?
That’s old news! What are you talking about new?
I'm seeing that prompt all the time.

who has the same problem? I receive 1-2 orders a day for 10-12 hours online. what to do?
This is my third time dashing. First dash was 28; dollars for six hours
How do you get paid on the same day with Door Dash?
