Yes, if you could rate, please consider the time it takes for people to get your food. It is not a Dasher’s responsibility to cook it and package it. We literally stand there and wait for it to be done before we can go .. unfortunately that is the reason some orders are declined depending on the merchant and time of day. Then the next dasher accepts the order gets penalized because it’s super late for the customer.. ppl just don’t know how much happens in behind the scenes.. some merchants don’t have it down pat yet and steadily keep taking your orders..
I got to platinum with my first 32 days doing dd. The last week , 90% of my deliveries they have sent me have been garbage. Now my acceptance rate is right at 50%. It was 98% but I was also doing it by time and not by offer. Most of the restaurants take forever here to get the food ready. May just go back to hourly and take forever to deliver.
Oh man what a bummer. This is the problem with DoorDash. They change things up and cause drivers to take orders that don’t pay and then drivers want to give it up. Sorry my friend
I’m at 4.96/82/99 but I multi app and can’t schedule enough to meet the rolling 100 deliveries. DD is again trying to force us to deliver more trash. Every new rollout by DD is to screw drivers. Btw my platinum friend says he sees very few lop like once a week maybe…
This is the same problem I have. All my metrics are Platinum level except I can't maintain the 100 deliveries because it's really difficult to get any good shifts through scheduling. I've basically given up on DD as a result, there are better apps in my area that don't require the same amount of BS.
Thanks for watching. Just be warned. This program operates in real time. So if you are at 70% AR and then decline a order that drops you to 69% you will drop from Platinum to Gold or Silver. It’s tough to deal with
Great explanation! I just dont think running my car in the ground is worth it. I love DD and find it relaxing...so doing it on terms that make sense to me. I am Platinum but work FT. I will lose my status probably by Friday..😢 but again, not going to be a hamster on a wheel.
Ben,, as a top dasher in the old day, you can already accept cratering order if you have catering container. To be honest and trueful, the only difference as a Top Dasher on this program mean instead of taking 2 to 3 crappy(low pay or long distance) a day or just taking everything during last 3-5 days of the month for Top Dasher next month, chance are you will have to take 3-5 crappy order a day in order to keep the above 70% level! This is just a way for DD to get those low end order moving at the expense of every driver who actually need this job! imo
I was never able to do catering and I have done 10k orders over 4 years, but thats because I never kept my Completion Rate above 95% and for the most part I was below the 70% because of so many bad orders. In Phoenix, Scottsdale, Peoria, Glendale (AZ) I think I could have done what you said and just took what I wanted throughout the month then went 2-4 days taking everything like you said, but now I live in Wichita and if you don’t have Platinum it’s tough to get on dash making it very difficult to bring your ratings up. I do agree this is another carrot to get Dashers to do their bidding and it sucks. Also, I appreciate your view and comments.
In my area it’s a lot different. Our platinum drivers require 80% acceptance rate 97% complete rate 4.8 rating 150 dashes last 30 days No dash now anymore unless it’s red
With over 2,000 deliveries and platinum status, I still get $2 orders with no tip. It is not worth the effort or the expense. So for all of you who are thinking about driving for doordash, you should think again. If you ignore my friendly warning, there is a 99.9% chance that you will understand exactly what I mean within your first month. Do anything.... And I mean anything other than subsidize doordash. Good luck!
I actually appreciate this warning because I think most people get into it thinking they will make good money but then soon find they struggle especially with only running DoorDash. Thank you for you view and insight
The second your acceptance rate hits 69% it automatically knocks you down one level. In my opinion doordash getting worse. They don't care about drivers they just want the orders deliver asap. So they can make money. North Carolina
And that’s what makes this program so frustrating. Once you drop to Gold or Silver Dash now goes away. And in several markets it’s extremely difficult to get on dash. Thank you for commenting and watching!
3:23 not may mean. You'll be demoted. With this update DD is basically giving the middle finger to anyone who isn't doing it full time. My stats are in line but I fell behind 100 deliveries for rolling 30. Sucks big time. You can schedule a week out but in a week you're way way behind. Squeezing out the part timers. Just gonna cause more orders to sit around.
I don’t like it either. Making it harder for gig workers especially part timers which is like 60-80% of drivers. I actually don’t like any of these programs. Wish it was like it was in 2019
The question no one can answer for me on this 100 rolling 30 day delivery system, is how can deliveries fall off daily if you don’t work daily??? I work 4 days a week and do 30-40 deliveries, Tuesday-Wed-Sat-Sun. So how many deliveries fall off on days I don’t deliver??? Can someone answer me that please????
@@fredorta9026let’s say today you’re at 100/30 days tomorrow you don’t dash you’ll be 100/31 and no longer be platinum, to maintain platinum you MUST deliver at least 3.33 orders every single day
@@fredorta9026 Whatever deliveries you did 30 days ago drop of every day. If you do 1 delivery today that delivery counts toward your 30 day rolling total for the next 30 days.
Hey there I’m having a super hard time getting on schedule.. my acceptance is 78 now and that’s not changing for another 100 offers? the app continues to offer me low offers with time consuming routes @$3 extra I’m getting $5 delivery? so I’ve only been able to make an ave of $13 an hour vs $20 . Also my 30 day deliveries are down to 52? How do you get back to 100? It’s crazy ! I definitely don’t want to do it at night for safety reasons in KC period! I’m just trying to pay bills and get two implants #struggling
@@Blended247 I’m sorry to hear this. DoorDash is squeezing drivers making us feel forced to accept those bad offers just to keep our AR up. Your AR will fluctuate each offer depending on if you accept or decline. I would say maybe get your AR up high enough to give yourself a cushion and try declining those terrible offers to hopefully get to some good ones. It’s a hard fix because 60-70% of DD offers are $2-5, but maybe it could help.
DoorDash is ridiculous to allow those no tip customers to continue using the app and requiring Dashers to take orders like that just to maintain the right percentages
Well im going to start actually rating evertime i order from now on i didn't realize how cutthroat it is. Thanks for the video
You are welcome. Thanks for watching.

So basically you need to lose $200 so you can get first dibs in earning $50 back!!!

Q, with by hour orders, is that better if you are gold or platinum? I’ve done per order for year now curious
Honestly, I would think platinum would be better because you would still be given priority to orders over gold status Driver.
