The other day I got a $35 tip for going 3.7 miles. The tip was already high as is,but person tipped me more after. The thing you have to learn is ALWAYS ALWAYS send a text before you drop it off or after. Simply say this: Hi. Your food is here. I hope you enjoy it. Have a great day (or night). Thank you for any tips. I appreciate it." Always no matter what send a text when it's been delivered. You will notice your ratings going up AND tips. I've gotten quite a few higher tips after delivery. You name it $30, $36, $20...$19....etc. You can even do it on DoorDash, but obviously they cannot change the tip unless they contact customer care to do it. Your ratings will probably go up. I always say thank you no matter what and very polite. Very few or close to no drivers ever do that, send a text. I've never been tip baited either. I think because like I said I always send a text message no matter what. But I have noticed sometimes it takes over an hour to get the tip. The other day it took 2 hours for the tip to come in. It was slow for some odd reason. I feel you on DoorDash. DoorDash has been sucky crappy. It started off decent,but there is a bunch of cheap people on there. Just people that either don't tip or don't know the correct way to tip. I've gotten some that tipped me $2.50. Cheap wads! It's like can't you just tip $5 at least???
I would love to see you do Rideshare with Uber. I wonder how much you can make in Florida picking up people.
@@FelixBrignoni probably a lot more. Especially at night where the bars/clubs are.
I used your link and it didn't work. Would it show up in wallet?! Im a sara elizabeth too! lol I was in the same class as 3 other sara elizabeths
It will show up in your Venmo or Paypal the following Tuesday. It won't show the bonus on Solo.
I noticed that with UberEATS, the customer is allowed to take the tip back. You never know what you will get. That needs to stop
More likely to happen in poor areas that know we don’t want to deliver in that area in the first place. Call Uber support to let them know because I’m sure they done it more than once.
That's exactly what I've been going thru.....there tip baiting...to get you to take the order
It always ends up more for me
@Erik DiMera wait a while it eventually happens and more times it's the ones you don't expect from a good neighborhood
Happened to me 4 times today. I’m so pissed.
Uber Eats has a terrible logistics problem in that they allow customers to order from restaurants too far away from them. The customer doesn't want to pay and neither does Uber so they bombard us with low paying long distance offers that hopefully drivers aren't taking. If they would just develop distance parameters for customers the problem would be solved.
Big issue w this, and why they're not doing this, is the illusion of choice. If they capped the restaurant distance to 3-5 miles, the app would look baren to a customer. The plethora of restaurants would vanish.
@@PicoFromTX Domino's had a 9 mile radius when I worked for them. 3-5 is too short a radius. 9-10 miles radius would be fine.
It is not ubers regulation or responsibility telling people that they can only order places. If the customer would take the time out to look at the address of the customer they could make better choices. There is someone who will take those orders or the order won't be delivered
Only reason I accept under $1/mile if its my last order and past 10pm(most spots closed) also has to be going towards my house
@@jamesflou that makes sense if the driver is making hourly + tips, but in the gig economy , 9 mi is just too far. Unless the order pays for the miles to, and from a distance that far. But most ppl are ordering one meal, and base pay is $2. So most orders over 5mi away just don’t make sense with these apps, when the average order is $5-7.
The frustrating thing about Uber Eats is the misinformation. You can't see some info until you accept. Yesterday I was picking up at Dunkin and it offered me another pickup for $5 and it said .2 miles. I accepted and after dropping off the first order, it showed me 13.3 miles away for the second. Another thing that's bad is Walmart runs. I was in a Walmart parking lot during a dead time and was offered 1 item to pickup and deliver less than a mile away. Since I hadn't had any orders in any app for over 15 minutes I accepted even though it was $3.13. It ended up that that one item was a 38 item shopping list, it was 6.8 miles away and in an apartment on the 4th floor. None of that crap was revealed until I got to the next step and eight 40 packs of water were amongst the 38 items. Talk about infuriating! No tip to boot.
I hope you didn’t bring that dunkin order and unassigned that Walmart order lol
Some people use a stapler in their car to secure bags that keep opening
I have been doing Uber since Aug 2022, and was watching your channel before you got hacked. This is the first time I see your vid on my feed. Glad to see you are back with Uber. Let me tell you that the customer service down here in Homestead FL in the McDonalds are HORRIBLE!!! And I took the time to write to Corporate, and they just shrugged it off and told me to call Uber to complain....LOL!
I had my best shift ever last night.
I made $101.34 in four hours doing UberEats and DoorDash.
Gotta have both to make good money
Damn your Chanel grew a good amount I remember watching you a while ago when you just started, congrats😊
I give you credit for trying to make sure the order is right before leaving the restaurant. I see a lot of videos here of drivers who don't pay attention to that at all. They just grab the one bag & leave, assuming the order they were handed is complete, when maybe there was a 2nd bag, or drinks that the restaurant employee screwed up on.
Good video. Yes, Uber sends some of the worst orders at times. $7 for 22 miles. Terrible. I do get some good ones (enough to keep me on) but a lot of bad ones.
Thank you, I was very surprised at these ratios!
@@SaraElizabethYT I truly believe it just depends on where you live. DD customers where I live mostly don’t tip at all and if they do it’s a dollar. I don’t get as many UE orders, but I can make more money on less orders. Saturday night I made 123 on 4 orders. I do get some small crap orders on UE sometimes but nearly as many as DD… I wish DD was better in my area like it seems to be in yours .
I’ve never been too baited on UE and I’ve been doing UE for 1 1/2 yrs. I like it so much better than DD. I start Amazon Flex tomorrow.
U can pause ur orders by clicking on the coffee ☕
Boston Pizza last night didn't get the order, told me it would be 15 minutes, suggested I reassign. I decided a bird in the hand...it was a $10 trip, turned into a $15 tip. Patience pays.
Hey Lady , 'good seeing you as always . It's a beautiful day up here and things are somewhat okay . So , nothing to see here ! These extra mileage orders you receive have me wondering whether you are the only one available in your particular area . Then again , I wake up and presume " surely not " . I hope things are going well for you today . Take care and I'll see you when...
Unfortunately I was tip baited about a week ago. The order was $10.02 for 1.2 miles from a popular Spanish restaurant I actually waited a good 15mins for the order to be prepared. Realized I was tipped baited after the 2nd hour of me not receiving my tip. Long story short it took me the next 24 hours to finally convince Uber to give me what I deserved smh
They did? You called Uber and asked for the tip back?
@@SaraElizabethYT
Yes I called them, It took a couple different people in different departments for me to get to the right person "supervisor" to adjust my payout 🙌🏽
@Sara Elizabeth Yes. You can get your pay. Stay calm and keep the mentality that they are helping you.
Repeat "contractual obligation" as you ask to escalate. If they refuse, say, "You're telling me that UE does not intend to fulfill your contractual obligation. In addition, you cannot provide a reason for the decrease. Do I understand?
You'll get your pay.
@Amanda
That makes sense when it says "Expected tip" and you don't get that tip. It's like false advertising. Uber Eats should be sued from a lot of drivers.
@@MC91276 awesome 👌🏾
UE is my bread and butter. There's a ton of crap like DD but especially now that they're showing full tips, I appreciate knowing exactly what I'm making.
My area is a little higher income and really appreciate good service. I get so many extra cash tips and increased tips just by doing what comes naturally and gets ignored with DD.
I use them and only turn on DD at the busiest times in the busiest areas so I keep raising my acceptance rate.
UE is my best money maker too; I’ve been tip baited once in 3 years and almost every time the customer actually ADDS to the tip after the one hour when it shows up. My area seems to have ppl who use UE and appreciate me. My DD goes off all the time but it’s very low pay and long miles. I think it’s just different in all areas and states . I like UE over DD too.
Of the 2, I prefer UE over DD. Easy of use with declining, usually higher paying orders can be had, if there is a penalty for AR it's not as steep as DD and I don't need to schedule. Yes they will send like $2,3 orders all day but I just decline those. I also would prefer that we could rearrange stacked orders and see some things in that app that get hidden while doing an order but it is a lot easier to manage their app while driving.
Totally agree ! In my area UE is the best and I get better tips. I have only been tip baited once in 3 years . When my tips come through , they have almost always added to them and make them higher . I don’t as many orders as DD but in the long run I make MUCH more money . It all depends on where you live . I wish I did get good orders on DD because there are more of them but they are very low pay . I also really like the UE app too. I have had maybe a couple of glitches on it before, but not many . Seems like DD is better in Fla from the videos I watch .
Yeah I stopped 🛑 driving for Uber Eats for this EXACT reason! Got tip baited on a $40 SHOPPING order. Made sure they got EVERYTHING they wanted.
😱 Walked up 3 flights of stairs with NO help with tons of bags & took it back! That was my LAST DAY working with Uber. 🚫
I always have a sharpie in my car for when I get stacked orders so I can write the person's name on their order so I don't mix anything up.
That would make it less stressful 😅
When I have stacked orders that are each in a hot bag, I put them in the order of the drop off. I’ll also put the alphabetical at pick up if I don’t know which will be first drop off then arrange in car.
I got different color bags..I put one in different ones
@@Mickieshelton Me too!
I’m at a 17% acceptance rate and I cannot foresee ever being able to get it back up. These orders were incredibly insulting.I was being very loyal to Doordash but not feeling any type of reciprocal support from them.
I’ve been Ubering for 2 weeks now. Cab driver isn’t so bad and it pays twice as much and I don’t have to get out of the car 😂
I live in a college town so it’s very busy.
but girls dont really do ubereat though
@@jake9854 what
I quit my job and started driving Uber and now I’m making $2100 a week. And I only work 39 to 42 hours a week.
my acceptance rate is like 5% because i only take orders over $15 bc i live in a st louis and they'll have me pick up down the street from my house and delivery 30 minutes away or deliver in illinois 🙄
@@vagas99food delivery or passenger pickup?
It’s frustrating when you drive 13 miles and you hand them the food personal to turn around no tip as getting flagged for food never received! Uber needs to hold them accountable. Or sending pic of proof and uber asking you for proof of extra pic delivery . ☹️
Unless you pick up the next order close to your delivery you are actually getting half as much . In our area, the restaurants are in a centralized area therefore it is double the miles to your next pickup. Also for example we will pick up at a Mcdonald's and pass two or three McDonalds on the way to the delivery. Customer choice or Uber? Don't know.
Much success and health to all.
UberEATS has it's fair share of trash but in my market in Jacksonville Florida they can have some Fabolous orders over 18 for less than 4 miles and orders 10 to 11 are pretty good for hidden tips!!
Uber eats is my go to app. I will try dd on the weekends but still end up on uber eats on weekends too. My market is too saturated with dd drivers.
That is fantastic you can do uber again happy for you. Ya I have Doordash and Uber going If they are slow I turn on walmart spark. Seems like I can make the money faster with spark When the store I am at gets the orders.
Good to see back on UberEATS....its the app I first found on you all those years ago.
😆 It's what began my Gig addiction. So happy to be back!
Thankfully (knock on wood), I've always got all my tips. What I don't like is Shop-N-Pay orders as if the store is out of something and you don't find a replacement for equal or same amount that the customer approves of, then you will not receive the full fare offered. Also, UE will only give you a fraction of the fare promised if the customer is unavailable and will ask you to return the item to the store, unless it's fast food which they will let you keep. The last thing I don't like about UE is when you've traveled a lot of miles to get to a store and it's closed, they will only compensate you 3 bucks, no matter the distance. I usually end my shift when that happens. I'm going to try to prioritize Doordash this weekend because Uber has gotten on my last nerve...
Yeah also the Walmart deliveries in my area 90631, not worth doing. High mileage and seldom tips!
I prefer to choose orders on time vs dollar but I’m in Cali so it may seem different. Most people make 10$ an hour minimum wage if I can make 25 to 30 an hour I’m good.
I love how you're wearing your Uber shirt for this video. Also, your reaction to trip radar 😂😂😂 I started laughing out loud. "It's like a trash can" bahahaha
That's my biggest gripe with Spark, I'll take 1 hour versus 24 hours all day. Now that sucks
I've had app drivers not check my order. I prefer to get my own food as I'm a picky eater.
Much success and health to all.
ya most of the problem is no just how far a customer can order but customers are lookong for the deals and they think that applies to all restaurants for example burger king maybe the restaurant is like 1 or 2 miles from the customer but the deal only works at a burger king that is 15 or 20 miles away so the customer aint expecting for the long drive and they dont wanna tip cause they are paying too much is common for deals offered thru any gig app not only uber i myself has stop delivering and only do lyft and so far no complaints the only thing is the pay is kinda low but the adjustment pays after 2 weeks are juicy so it makes up have fun delivering peps and a great day
It’s nice to have you back with Uber eats
German
I call McDonalds Walmart on accident all the time too. I wonder why we do it.
Great video and got one tip baited and some give more what app show me.
I don’t get a lot of orders on UE in my area, but I still make more money with them than I do wit DD.. I have been tip baited only once on UE.. lucky so far about that ..
I Just started again in LA… kinda slow for me this morning . I wanna see how tonight goes
I took a $15 trip 2 zones away, didn't get another order for an hour. DD don't care if they sabotage us with terrible trips.
Btw my average over 1000 orders is $16.50 Cdn. Per hour. I would throw a party over $23 hr.
I’ve had customers increase their original tip 4 times after the fact, for every 1 time they lower it. If u do a bad job they should be able to take the tip back. Not every time u think is a tip bait actually is. Sometimes it’s driver error we’re not perfect either. Deny it all you want.
Thank you!!! This is correct.
I dont know if its just me but every since a year ago, my order-requests have plummeted by at least %70. I deliver on a bike and used to have to fight the orders off, now, I barely receive 1 or 2 requests a day. Shit is extremely strange. Is this happening to anyone else? ? ? ?
I’m in Fla sometimes I wait over 20 minutes for an order
The thing with doordash for me was it was limited to the city I reside in. I'm currently on waitlist.
With Uber Eats you aren't limited to a territory or city or whatever. So I can earn wherever I want. The ony drawback to this is I may enter an area where it is saturated by Uber Eats drivers and there's hardly any requests.
Really like your camera necklace.. where can I find one? Please help thank you
Jan and Feb were horrible on uber eats I was doing 200 everyday between doordash and uber now I am back todo 200 everyday is picking up again. On my area double or triple orders is the norm. I live close to a 30k population College campus with a bunch of rich kids.
I did a mcdonalds order and they put drinks in a sealed bag. How are we supposed to know if they put everything on.
This is why I refuse to drive for UE now!! I drove over 9 miles and the customer o it tipped .61 when it was supposed to be $8!!! The tip baiting, double low orders, and long distance trips are not cool at all!!
When you multiapp, which shirt do you use?
My DRIVER one 🔥
The trip radar is more like the reject radar either I reject or they reject when I accept
Tip baiting sucks fortunately it's only happened twice to me
I’m over it. Everybody is over it. If we don’t tip well, or what you think is not well, nobody will deliver my food. We are over paying for food anyway.
Deal with it or find another job. Do better.
"Bag is not secure!" 😂😂😂 I do UberEats as well and i agree! lol
Sarah: Hi I don't know about your area but the Seattle area has been pathetic for getting me orders. I have maybe had about 5 orders in the last week!!. That's why I switched over to Doordash. I think it's because Uber Eats has seriously jacked up their prices and people are just not ordering on that platform as much anymore. Tell me what you think.
I mixed up a double one time. Customers were ok with it because they got a refund. I got paid. Sounds like a good business plan...
The great thing is the food costs next to nothing for the stores to make so nothing is ever really lost value wise.
5 Uber eats driver tips
1. Never go in poor areas: Higher chance of tip baiting/ low paying tips
2. Never accept deliveries that don’t tip to promote tipping: Uber drivers need to stand together and force either Uber to pay more for long distance or customers to pay more to the driver
3. Never do double pick ups with more then one location: Higher chance of mistake or impatient customer
4. Never accept Uber during or a half an hr before rush hr
5. Never do deliveries for Mc Donald’s. : Food is always missing items or not ready. employee service is terrible and the customer is too.
Bonus tip. Stay away from hotel deliveries unless the tip is high. They will make you go to the 10th floor for a $2
The McDonalds' in my area are great but I do agree with the hotels. Can't see the address in UE until after food is picked up. At least DD shows the exact address in the widget but you gotta be fast enough to check it before you accept. My UE app doesn't tell you how much the tip is, DD I can do the math and figure it out though.
@@SaQusKate Mc Donald’s is 🗑 just from going there myself. Mc Donald pays employees $13hr and it shows. It’s like a under the stairs work program for retarded people. If all the Uber customer can afford is Mc Donald’s you are more than likely getting a long mile low paying tip. Via $4.25 expect tip for 12.5 miles. Most the orders are graffitied with customer reported missing items from this location. They want free food and for you to go the extra mile for an upside down trip. Restaurants only for me.
Stay out of Essex County nj they never ever ever tip for anything
I do the same thing with putting the hot bag in the picture. Lol.
It's almost impossible to multi app with uber eats they might send you out of the country with they orders
DD/Uber gotta run both in my area
That solo app I tried and I didn't like it at.all.. main reason is because they way low ball the prediction of what ur supposed to make per hour..they would never pay me anything
Very nice ❤
I see a lot of what I’m assuming are tip baiters in the comments. If u say it’s the company problem then dont tip at all instead of scamming. You are doing the same thing ur accusing Uber of doing. I know not everyone can tip & I do take low orders because I know that, so let us make that decision instead of tip baiting 👍🏻
On Walmart spark customers have 24 hours to change their tip I got a suprise today tho changed their tip from ten dollars to 20 dollars.
Oh that's a nice surprise! 😄
Nice nikles camera. Can u plz send me info about it.
What nikles camera u recommend?
It’s literally seemingly endless cycles of declines these days on UE, I’m actually online now and
Hold on
It’s been terrible 😅. I’d say ever 5 or so days I have an okay ish day; but that too ends up being like 57 declines for every one or two I take. It is 🍌
should I park in zone or keep driving around for uber eats? im located in los angeles
Hi how can I get schedules for a week?
Yep happen all the time
Question about UberEats
The app didn't have the order ready so I had to place the order then it would get made. I used the black card to pay and the order showed a higher price than what it was showing through my app. So I reached out to the customer to inform them that the bill might reflex a different price. I got an ear full from the lady thinking I was negotiating the price. I was just trying to be nice so she wouldn't freak out if the bill was different than what she thought it was going to be. Would Uber have kept it at the lower price?
Just order the food, take a picture of the receipt and submit it. I wouldn't call the customer because the prices are actually estimated. The customer gets the picture so it's not your problem, that's between the customer, UberEATS and the restaurant. I know you was going above and beyond but in that case just stay out of it and do your part. Stay safe out there!
@@VIBESQUEEN thank you so much.
@@bugventure888 you're welcome!
Hi - today Uber eats changed the tip timing. Now the customer has 24hrs to change mind! This is not cool!!! 🤬🤬
Tuesdays are good:) or is that just a CA thing?
This is why people, mostly young, are broke. They pay a ridiculous price for fast food, then pay Tips. That Taco Bell Order was probably $30+. I can take a date to Golden Corral for that. Or a few dollars more, To Logan's, The Roadhouse, Longhorn. My old Asspine is getting up, like it or not, and driving 2 miles, if I decide to get fast food.
Those road map drop offs waste so much time, and here in NJ it's not safe so they have to meet me
Just finished my first week doing Uber eats in Fayetteville nc 4/5 hours a day (lunches )= 25 hours on line, after gas, 200 miles on the car, and taxes I averaged a whopping $6 hour what a joke and a waste of time.
I just signed up for Uber Eats driver, but haven’t started just yet, I have a Nissan frontier truck 6 cylinder, do you think it’s really worth it using the Truck? I have a Tahoe too but that I know won’t be worth using
Thanks in advance
No unless you only take short distance orders which probably won’t pay too well unless you get lucky on tips
My tips never show up within an hour on UE….it always takes longer, but I do get much higher tips than I do on DD..
Yeah her offers are making me feel lucky!
@@SaQusKate I really do make more money on UE in my area and especially on tips. Much more than DD. I make hardly anything on DD. All areas are different. I wish I could make money on DD where I live but it’s horrible low pay, high miles offers. You have to just consider the area because some ppl do really good on DD and some do on UE. If you are in her area, it would probably be more like hers is my guess .
Hey, Sara, I would like to ask if there is a law in the United States that limits the delivery platform operator’s limit on how many hours a delivery driver can spend in a day, or how many days a delivery driver must take a day off after working for a day, because labor overwork often occurs in our country Question, so I'm curious whether the government must be responsible for this matter or the delivery company must be responsible, or the delivery driver must pay attention to it, so I would like to ask you how to solve this situation in the United States. Thank you.
Max you can work is 12 hours. With a pause of 6hour minimum
We aren't employees of these platforms. We're independent contractors so they don't have to give us benefits
How is it fair for a customer to be able to take the tip back? It doesn't even make sense for that to be aloud and kinda makes me nervous to use UE because I can't actually trust what the dollar amount is showing. I'm using DD only but was thinking of UE aswell but not getting the amount of money that was shown to me for me to take it in the first place kinda sketches me out.
When I first started ordering from UE, I always left the tip blank until AFTER I received my order. Many times drivers were stupid and couldn't find my house, even with detailed instructions. I'd have to get in my car and go meet them. Yeah, I'm not tipping for that crap service. I eventually started adding the tip before my delivery was complete because most of the time I have zero issues where I live now with them finding my correct address. However, I will deduct part of the tip if they suck. Tipping culture is out of control. Never in my life did people expect gratuity BEFORE the service was complete.
Sept 17,2023 I accepted Uber Eats order (9.4 miles for $18.07) and they took back the $8 tip. Podded me off
Uber eats is terrible in my market best offer was 16 dollars for 19 miles and only did it cause it said 18 at first
I got deactivated because I was new and my acceptance rate is low I started for like just 1 week and got deactivated can you please tell me how to make new account?
I’ve been doing Uber Eats since November 2022. It’s easy money. I made $800 last week. I joke about $150-$200 per day. I live next to Ft. Hood on Central Texas and those soldiers are HUNGRY! Uber Eats has been poppin off the chain lately. It appears the holiday handover is finally over. Don’t stop doing UE because of tip baiting. I’ve done 1000+ deliveries and only had my tip removed twice.
Ft. Hood is a money maker, but some of us can’t get on the base since credentials are needed.
@@forever4rvandoutdoor934 Couriers can absolutely get on the base. Just go to the visitor center, show your driver’s license and proof of insurance. You will get a 90 pass.
I was not aware that a pass would be given for this. Can you tell me your experience with getting through the gates? Is it an easy process?
@@forever4rvandoutdoor934 Very easy. You just scan the barcode on your visitor pass and off you go. Definitely text the customer and ask them to meet you in the parking lot if they’re in the barracks. The barracks are a bitch and you don’t want to go on a wild goose chase looking for a room number.
Thank you for all of that information!! I really do appreciate it. I’ve been watching all the orders going onto post and never knew that I was able to get a 90 day pass, but I will surely go do that! I also appreciate the heads up on texting customers and meeting in the parking lot. I can see where barracks would be a nightmare to navigate. Thanks again!!
How to create new Uber account .
Do you do 3 or 4 dollars for 3 miles
I signed up but not driving ten miles for $5 dollars
The biggest factor is the area/market you’re in. I used to live in NC near Charlotte. I would get an order offer on UE or DD within 3-4 minutes even during slow times never went more than 15-20 mins without accepting an offer. And I’m picky- won’t accept under $2/mile unless it was on my way home. With inflation and skyrocketing rent costs now in FL, the market is not even close to worth it. I’m a couple miles from the west coast in a heavily populated area- tons of restaurants. I can go 10-15 mins without getting a single order offer on both UE and DD during lunch and during dinner rush maybe one offer every 4 minutes. And the offers are not worth it. 5 miles for $5.25? No thanks. Oh $9.25 but 11 miles nah. $4.25 for 2 miles. Still not worth it! That whole ordeal will take about 20 minutes still depending on proximity to restaurant. At that rate you’re making less than minimum wage WHILE using your own gas. The only reason I ever do it now is I run it in the background and see if I get a decent offer and accept, I will gladly take s $10 under 4 mile trip. Spark and instacart have my attention now because there’s higher earnings, less wear on your car etc. Not quite as simple as just picking up an order but more consistent in your earnings
All of the delivery gigs are booming in the Raleigh area. I constantly see great orders for UE over DD. Working peak hours for each app is crucial to making money. I clear around 200-250 per day multi-apping... Wed-Sun.
@@norfoninsongunderson236 yeah I used to work Chapel hill area when I went to college at UNC, that whole triangle area wasn’t too bad a few years ago. I bet demand has only gone up.
@rob4461 GH, Spark, and UE are constantly busy. The quests on UE happen daily. A couple of years ago, I'd hardly ever see any quests during slow times (Mon-Thurs). The reason for the demand is that the housing market has blown up in the Holly Springs/Apex/Fuquay areas.
Uber doesn't pay for distance why drive 10 miles out the busy area when you can get the same crappie orders in the hot zone that why I won't take anything under 8.00 or over ten miles
I think grubbin works better for me
The orders have been trash lately, I decline so many.
I don’t even understand what the “radar” thing means .. I don’t see the difference between that and just regular offers 🤷♀️
Same!
Uber Eats better make a lot of changes on their pay! I was just tip baited last night and for no reason! These customers that do that are the biggest POS! Plus don’t they realize we have their address! Cheap ass POS need to start going to get their own food!
7:58 it's already ready cuz no one wanted it you were not the one the sent that request too
Yea but I got a an order for $10.03 and ended up getting like $2.49 and Uber took some service fee! It’s not even worth it to me
What happened to instacart?
Have you ever put your phone in pocket and accidentally canceled a order
I believe if the total is more than 8 dollars on the acceptance screen then there’s the possibility of a hidden tip
Ok good to know!
@@SaraElizabethYT Actually uber hides tips over $8
Used to be pretty easy to figure out if there is hidden tip after a drop off order says pays $11.25 and after drop off Uber says the base pay was $3.25 which is exactly $8 owed. Then you will more than likely (but not always) see a higher tip after .
Uber these days are starting to show full pay at least in my market, Atlanta.
But the $8 rule sometimes still applies as today I had on say payout was $16.47 for 12.8 miles and uber pay was $8.47 ($8 diff) but ended up paying $19.47
Only took it because was going to another good area.
I think both DD and Uber have figured out we know what triggers hidden tip and they are changing what they show.
Hint for DD, get that AR up to at least 50% to get better paying orders and less crap (it really does work) 70% gets you even better orders.
I am at 76% and rarely get crap orders anymore. But I also only dash when busy and never in grey areas or it starts to kill AR. If AR starts going down then I just use my other apps and wait for DD to get busier.
I am currently on the Large order program , pizza program and high priority (Diamond) program. With Doordash.
Biggest tip on Large order was $78 and customer gave me $20 cash on delivery.
LOP you need to have catering bag a 4.7 or over , a 95 completion rate and 100 deliveries in past month to be invited, so if you have those stats keep checking email for invite. I almost missed mine, glad I didn't. AR does not matter for Large orderand I get at least few of them a day 😉
Hope you understand what I wrote and keep up the great vids.
Base pay on UE is 2.50 in my market and they hide tips over $8, so if the offer is 10.50 it's hidden tip potential. But, it also depends on the miles, I haven't figured out that part yet
I'm sorry tip baiting is happening to gig drivers.
My issue with UE is the taxes, fees, etc on the tax summary. Makes tax time complicated when they do things differently than every other app. I'm not doing UE this year because of this.
Wow I am soooo glad to hear someone else talk about UE and taxes!!! Why are they different than the others? The income directly deposited to my account is all I need!!!!! My tax gal did it with the form they gave but I still don’t understand it! Very frustrating
@delivefreenana9059 I agree, it's very frustrating! I don't know why they have to do things so differently.. why not just give out the 1099 like every other app??! There shouldn't be the taxes, fees, Mileage on the tax summary for UE. So the money your making on UE isn't accurate after they take out all the fees, taxes, etc that's listed on their summary. I'm using other apps this year.
@Dustin Piercey not true you write off the fees so if you adding the to the actual money your received you aren't doing you taxes correctly.
If is crazy where all this has gone
How did you get another account created and Uber accepted it? I was deactivated because some a** hole created a duplicate account. Therefore saying I violated the the agreement.
Ouch, maybe I was able to get a new one because I Deactivated my last one myself? It wasn't easy!
