⚡Not making good money driving food delivery? Here's why: ua-cam.com/video/gl9GqDc2Z9E/v-deo.html&t
Hey love your content. I’m in Pittsburgh too, just wondering what area you work in, wondering if it’s different than my area.
I know why. I don't get many orders! The only app I can get on is uber eats. I try 4 hours in the evening and om lucky to get 3 orders! I tried lunch time a few times and I get one or two.
@@edwinsmith2827Try making yourself needed at undesirable restaurants like McDonald's or Taco Bell. I get the requests because I'm sure others declined them for the long wait lines that can be. I sometimes get orders from non busy restaurants that are nearby. I recommend not staying in 1 spot, but chasing around the hotspots. Because restaurant busyness changes often. Uber updates every 5 minutes, to be as accurate as possible!
I will never forget I took a 20 dollar shop, there were 35 items, I was half way thru & was like this is not worth it. But I finished the order with the help of a store clerk (ty) and afterwards got a 💯 tip, I even went back & passed the store clerk something because she didn’t have to help me. I was so grateful
I’ve taken a 20$ with 37 items too it was bad and I was pissed plus I had to finish it in one hour and so I was
30 min late and it was late and dark I had to carry all those damn bags. I did get a 10$ tip however she gave me 3 stars which brought my rating down to 2! I was so pissed off and tired on top of it all. This was with shipt btw!
U er is a corrupt dishonest company. In many areas they have more drivers than customers. Most of the time you
Won't clear even half the minimum wage. Advice for newbies run away from Uber as fast as you can
@marinabogoslavskaya2715 That was ungrateful of her! Especially with all the hard work you put in! 1 hour to get to the store, shop a large amount, scan & pay for it all, & deliver to the Customer in 1 hour is ridiculous!!!
@@walthinckley8978 I got $266 of prop 22 for my first 2 weeks, which brought me over $1,000
But I keep my app on most the day and take every order I get and I still can’t get 1 an hour, more like 1 order every 1.5 hours
@@walthinckley8978 I’ve never seen a surge lol I’ve for dinner hours and get 2 orders from 5-8 and there’s plenty of food places
Point is they obviously have a ton of drivers
I had a customer ordering a gift tray of really expensive cookies. She messaged me asking not to let them put a receipt on the box. I said no problem. I carry labels just in case, so I made a gift tag for her and I had gold ribbon leftover from Christmas, took thirty seconds and made a bow. An hour later, a $20 tip was sent to me. The little things matter! Not even a minute of work got $20 and the customer felt special. Win-win 😊
I had to learn declining orders the hard way as I used more gas. Uber automatically bumps up the price during surge if you decline it so it goes to the next driver at higher price. Don’t make the same mistake and make sure you decline low offer orders so the price can get bumped up.
Did not know this. I been accepting 2.00 orders🤣
At least $1/mile is my policy.
100 miles a day makes you 100 dollars car 20 miles per gallon 5 gallons by 5 dollars is 25 baks for fuel@@jackcarraway4707 city speed limit 25 miles/hr making peanuts only make money for rise
@@jackcarraway4707 Exactly! but I like the 2 dollars a mile better. 👍🙂
Did my first drive tonight for UE and there were some really ridiculous offers coming through. Like 3 bucks for 6 plus miles. No brainer decliners. If it's less than a dollar 50 a mile, it's an immediate decline.
Drove my first whole day $130 using these tips. Didn’t take a trip under $7 and did 12 trips. I also logged my mileage so I’m in the green and only payed out like $15 in gas.
How doing get more orders I need more money
@@violeehubbard8702 I just take $7 or above and stay around hubs with a lot of food places.
Shop and pay orders are absolutely a gamble. It can pay off or it can go badly when items not in stock and customer just cancels which has happened to me 3 times today.
I'm always looking for at least 2 dollars per mile and nothing less than 10 per order. I know I'm greedy but efficient 😁
I appreciate your videos Mike, started DoorDash last year and switched over to Uber Eats in February after trialing both together for a few months. I employ a lot of what you talk about in my own way already so it's nice to have some confirmation on what I was already doing. Learning some new tips and adjusting my processes based on your vast knowledge and experience is a big help as well, Thank You!
Been making a consistent $25/hr + since I switched away from DoorDash and just had my largest day of $318.74 in 11hrs 15min total online time last Saturday.
I also had a customer lie to Uber and say someone else was using my account, give me a thumbs down and remove their tip for an order that took over 1hr to complete then got a $27.04 McDonalds order for 0.6 miles later that day. Happened on the Saturday mentioned above.
If you're out there hustling and come across someone like this, make sure to ''''calmly'''' explain the situation to a support representative and know that the good vastly outweighs the bad!
@@MrXunoriginal How do you find out what a customer says when they complain about you? I got 5 thumbs down, and the rest are thumbs up, and I'm one point away from being a gold member. I called about the complaint that I got, and they wouldn't tell me what it was and gave me some generic advice on how to get thumbs up. It did not help me at all. I have no idea why that customer was upset.
@@magicmantis Truth is you just have to do your best and roll with the punches, Uber doesn't really fix those ratings. I wouldn't worry too much but definitely contact support if you feel something is unjust.
But this case Uber notifys you fairly quickly when it's a fraud accusation
that’s a hell of a day! goalsss
Thanks Mike for your videos. A year and a half ago I was nervous to start delivering with Uber Eats and now I am making extra income with this and I actually enjoy it.
Mike, thanks for the Uber Eats advice. You've probably saved me months if not a year or more trying to figure it out on my own. I found that in Honolulu it's not hard to hit $25 hr. consistently, but your advice is pushing me to $28-$30+ on a regular basis. Sick!!! Thanks again Mike!
Multi-app and you can up it even more. I don’t think I could do Honolulu cuz of parking. The west side is awesome.
Door dash sucks in Hawaii just cause it's over Saturated with drivers... I bank with Uber eats. Non stop request comes in .. door dash it's fewer and far in between
Started Uber Eats today to fill in the financial gaps. Thank you so very much for sharing these very helpful tips!
Pamela I'm about to start myself here in about a week as soon as I get my car insured wish me luck its gonna be my first time doing food deliveries so I'm a little nervous, wishing you the best on your hustle. 👍🙂
2 months later.. how is going? Im kinda curious
@@swully-ol4lx I am starting soon too and so nervous!
Dollars to mile is the golden ticket. Make way more that way because you'll usually not be too far from the restaurant you started at. I try to not go over 4 miles ever unless it's 2+ per mile on the offer. But the only time you stray from that would be high dollar orders that put you in a zone near a plaza with restaurants. Doing these will increase the amount of time your receiving orders/taking orders as well as your daily total ✌
I have the pizza bag and from the store Micheals I bought a six drink carrier. That’s been really handy. They hold the large drinks.
I do shop and pay. If it’s a $20 order and I can complete the entire order in under a hour it’s worth it. The liquor orders usually come with big tips. They also help with requiring less driving for the money.
I go to grocery stores and buy a couple dozen two liters of Coke when on sale for around a dollar or so. I include them with bigger orders with a note that thanks the customer for their business, and to have some Coke to wash down your order. I always 3-5x my investment on tips. I am in a wealthy market, not guaranteed to work in yours.
Thanks man. I start Uber eats next week and am a little nervous about it, but years as a bike messenger has finall come full circle as all I really want to do at this point in my life is ride around on my motorscooter. So much the better if I can get paid for it. You gotta great way of presenting yourself and I look forward to more. Thanks.
My number 1 tip: Don't take pre-planned Walmart orders There are always way more items than it says, often won't all fit in your vehicle. Nearly impossible to keep them separated when there are more than 3 or 4 at once. They give crappy tips, if any at all. It takes far longer to pick them up. Instead take them only if they come up during your normal day and if they show pay for about double what a normal delivery would be, and not more than 2 at a time.
This guys is awesome so much knowledge Ive learned a lot from watching his videos on Uber eats and I’ve been doing this gig for awhile!
The benefit of the equipment is really keeping the food hot. The cstmrs get a question asking about the heat of the food. I want to improve my tips not take away from them
They don’t deserve their food hot they don’t tip. Uber is bad right now
@@willstaxx0730 well maybe using the hot bag will get u tips u keep putting out that bad energy u gonna get that back
@@willstaxx0730 i just started ubereat. I accept every trips. Most of them don’t tips. I dont get to see them tho. Most of my delivery leave at front door. I just knock or ring doorbell or just call them let them know it is at front door. I get likely 2 tips out of 10 delivery
Thank you, we're new to Uber. Good tips!!!
Hi Mike, Thanks for your tips. I appreciate it; I am new in the Gig Hustle.
Nice video man! Loved it❤️🔥
My opinion on shop and pay orders are if it's a super slow lunch period and it pays more than 2 dollars a mile and 20 dollars an hour I MAY consider taking it on. Also the same goes for late at night if the frequency of orders have dropped to less than one every ten minutes I may accept one for my last order if the ending destination is close to my home.
I like your video Definetly going to watch more of your shows 😊
Thanks for the tips! Much appreciated-
thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I think the close able bags have increased my tips. I treat every order as if I were going to eat it. I work in Northern Texas, McKinney, I usually average 25 an hour. Your videos have been a great help, now I have to get rid of the 14 mile per gallon to Increase there also. I would have never guessed.
I appreciate the dollars per mile you suggested. I went with $1.50 per mile today but next time I will try $1.75 per mile. Thanks
Go with what works, each market is different my standard is 1$ per mile but that works for me in my market if I shoot for 1.50/1.75 my earnings would look like this
Earnings 12.46
Tips 4.50
Also the shop and pay are good for a change of pace. Helps to break up the routine and stretch your legs.
Mike I totally appreciate your videos and advice. I too am in PA (Central.) Employing your advice after 3 mths I am averaging $20/hr. Good days I can hit $35/hr. I am still exploring other area markets to see if I can bump those numbers higher. Again thx for the tips keep them wheels turning.
I been doing Uber for a couple to make for this inflation we are going thru and it helps a lot, very happy and enjoy driving around LA and getting pay for that, I have my regular and do this like on a part time basis, thanks for the tips really helps a lot 👍
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾
Great video. Thank You.
Uber let’s you see the mileage and the pay before you accept the ride here in Georgia
Bro … you’re awesome
Starting today! Let’s see how it goes! 🎉
How'd it go?! I'm starting today! Any advice for a nervous newbie?!?
what pisses me off is this new trend for customers to originally add a large tip of say 5-10 dollars, so the order looks appealing for drivers. Then once the order is delivered and complete, they change the tip to 1 dollar.
I agree. It is a bait and trap sceme. Pisses me off too. Anytime, I see an delivery with $10 or higher, I always worry I'm going to be tipped less. But I still accept the delivery. This was happening ALOT over the summer, but over the last two months I've only had it happen about three times.
This video helped alot! I just applied to Uber Eats recently and I will be keeping these tips in mind!
I started delivering for Ubereats again after a six month layoff. Here are the issues I am experiencing:
1. Food is not ready when I arrive at restaurants. At least a few minute wait no matter what type of restaurant.
2. No tips. Many deliveries I receive no tip.
3. Small fee received for a long distance delivery. (20 minute ride, $2.50 fee)
I actually just order from Uber eats &&’ well I order McDonald’s &&’ I’ve had a person pick up my order &&’ decline it because McDonald’s was taking way too long, another person picked up my order &&’ he still has to wait like 20 minutes for my order to be ready- I felt horrible &&’ I was originally tipping him a 5 cause I didn’t have much to offer but I found extra cash laying around &&’ I give him a total of 10 &&’ well I know it wasn’t Uber eats faults or the drivers- it’s simply cause the restaurant be taking forever- outmost respects to these guys delivering my food 🫶🏽
I put in my bio I’m saving up for certain car and I’ve been getting more tips
1. Sometimes u accept and do other stuff so when u get there is there.. and If it takes long leave it
2. Only pick up in affluent areas where the distance and money makes sense
3.don’t pick up long distance orders
very decent advice
a lady food was waiting at this particular restaurant for hours 1 dy. & no one took the order b/c it was a low paying ride going 20 plus miles 🥴 i felt sorry for her b/c she was waiting so long for her food so i grabbed the order & to my surprise she gave me a $25 tip n hand when i dropped her food off & turned around & gave me another tip ($35) through the app some low paying rides are actually worth it
Those low offers suck. Nobody accepts those. Most times customers don’t tip.. this job sucks
@@willstaxx0730 yes! i only do it when i’m off at my main job but lately i’ve been putting more into gas than i’ve been making so i think it’s a wrap for me!
@@dw6465 yeah man it’s devastating. Work for Grubhub or doordash Uber really sucks. Hopefully they’ll change the platform and pay their drivers better
@@willstaxx0730 a customer complained on me a few yrs. back on doordash so they won’t reactivate my account & grubhub has me on the waiting list! hey, have you ever had a customer ask if they could pay you in cash when you delivered their food? that happened to me before & i was spooked!!! 😂
How did you know it was waiting that long?
Thank you. 🙏
A thing about surge pay is that it can appear when the area is actually dead, but there are no drivers for few orders. So you can be out there waiting on orders because one place is open and few drivers are out. But they aren't doing volume.
Moving over from Doordash to Uber Eats still learning the beginning process.
Thank you
Thank you! The trip radar goes so fast! Is there a way to slow it down?
I don't take many shop/pay orders unless I'm delivering near my house. My town specifically isn't super busy, but if I multi-app I can make 2.50 - 3 dollars a mile when I incorporate some shop/pay orders. It's definitely dependent on the area you're in. I usually drive a few miles away to an area that covers a few 100k people, so I rather focus on quick orders, but with adapting different strategies the shop/pay orders can be quite beneficial.
I agree shop and pay is an absolute gamble ... It can pay off or you can roll snake eyes 3 times in a row...
Hi Mike, great video. I have a few questions if I may. I only want to drive part-time in my local area. 1. Can I not accept any orders outside my area? If so, how many times am I allowed to do this? I agree with your dollars-to-miles ratio and don't want to put a lot of miles on my car. 2. Does uber eats let you know that an order has been accepted by another driver when you try to accept the same order? That way you don't drive there for nothing. 3. What happens if you make a delivery correctly, but the customer claims that they never received it? I see videos of drivers taking a photo, but it doesn't prove you are at the right location. 4. Does uber track your vehicle to prove you are at the correct address? 5. How flexible is the work schedule? Thanks, Mike, I appreciate your help.
Hey! Have you used the para app or have a video on it? I'd love to know more about it. Thanks for your videos they are great!
They haven't been doing quest bonuses in CA lately....I love those Quest bonuses.
how does proposition 22 affect my drive in california? should i take a longer trip for a lower $$ drive since prop 22 will pay for the mileage taken? thanks and hope you can answer this :)
In my area, all the trips are one way meaning it's a deadhead back to my starting point. So, if the order says 2 miles it's 4 miles, 2 there, and 2 back to my starting point. The order must pay no less than one dollar a mile. The two-mile order just mention must pay at least 4 bucks before I take it.
New Uber Eats Driver here. So new I just got my card yesterday and I have a critical question. Uber Eats allows customers to pay cash for their orders. In the DoorDash app I have a toggle that lets me refuse to participate in C.O.D. orders. How can I do that with Uber Eats as I see no such option? When I'm sent an order will it tell me it is a C.O.D. so I can decline it?
I've seen $9 surge pay, and to be honest I've never got it even when I'm sitting directly on top of it. I think they do it as trick to move drivers around and it goes away without ever having a real increase in business. In my market, it's a total bait and switch for drivers and I have seen no benefit from it. I have sat in the parking lot of a restaurant with no orders, a surge appears for just long enough to drive in a bunch of suckers, and then disappears with nobody actually ordering any food. The customers just use another app, wait, or come get it themselves. Most of the drivers in my area are bona fide losers who would be fired from any decent restaurant job, and are ruining the whole market.
Not the funnest strategy but I drive an hour to nice neighborhoods surrounding major cities; I'm military so my market is low income. Low income areas means less orders, stingy tippers and jerk customers.
Also, delivering on post means having to deal with gate shenanigans and driving on eggshells with the MP's.
I'm starting uber delivery part-time as a side hustle and I get the feeling its going to be fairly profitable based on the videos I've watched and research I've done. I'm based smack dab in the center of a good sized city. A mall, the two biggest grocery stores in town, and dozens of restaurants are all within like 2 miles of me. W
I only do Walgreens or cvs but the pay got to be worth it
Hi Mile, I am still a UberEats Newbie and I was wondering. What is the best way go see orders come up? Driving around or staying stationary? I wasn’t sure if either or made a difference or not in the long run. I wanted to be as safe as possible & not be too distracted as a driver either.
Depends, you can do rounds maybe two around the restaurants. Then just park in a way you can head towards those rest faster.
Today was my first day and my first order was a stack order. It locked me out and I had no idea what was going on. I felt that was awful. Don't like stack orders but hopefully when I get better, it will be easier.
I've seen $40 surge pay in malibu, CA on 4th of july
We are in Lexington, KY, and been doing UE for not quite a month-never seen a surge pay OR stacked bonuses-never seen ANY bonus!
Thanks so much for the Great Info have a blessed weekend.
In California we get paid by the hour of active time online. So I’m happy to take Walmart orders because they take so long.
Great video, I’m a fellow 412 driver!🖤💛🤟✌️
Ive never seen surge pay in my market. Only on superbowl day I got quest that was it.
been waiting for uebar eats viodeo thanks!
Have you ever had app malfunction where you deliver one and your 2nd order also got marked as delivered? Lots of phone calls to customer service that day 🙄
My market doesn’t show where the heat is . Btw what is surge area ? I was sitting in surge area but I didn’t get any orders for an hours
I've been driving for Uber for about six years, and for Ubereats exclusively for the past three. I agree with you about the order and pay. You're not going to make any money spending twenty minutes shopping for somebody in a Walgreens. Restaurants aren't too bad, but since you ordered it, you have to wait for them to cook it. I disagree with you about how much you should make per hour. That would be different depending on the economy in your area. If I average $20 per hour, I feel I had an excellent day.
I'm in Montgomery Al and I have seen huge surge like $21 and I have gotten it before but it was only uberx and it's only late at night when nobody is out driving. I am new to your channel so I don't know if you have covered it but the thing plaguing me the most right now is these low super low orders. Like $2 low. I recently saw on another channel to just not accept them which is a temporary almost fix, but any insight on that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Thanks for the tips Mike! I've had issues determining what the surge is for when both Uber Eats and UberX are activated on the app. It would be helpful to know because if it's for Uber Eats then I would turn off UberX for a while, or the other way around. I asked customer support about this issue and they said if you see a surge then it is for both UberX and Uber Eats. We had a $12 surge one time so I signed into Uber eats only and I received standard pay. From experience, do you have any knowledge as to how to differentiate what the surge is for? Or was the customer service representative right?
when u signed in where you in the surge area or next to it... was it overtop of your current location because i see you said we had a surge and u signed into uber eats did. i believe there is a misunderstanding on your end with the app but the surges on uber are connected to each service
I have my acceptance rate at 26% , I received $2 order all the time 🥺🙄
how do you change the preferences on uber eats
The big profit killer is long distances to residences or apartments out in the sticks. Because you might get $1/mile or more, but then you have to drive back for 20 minutes. So my max distance is 6-7 miles, less if I'm near the county border, $5 min order, $1-2/mile minimum.
On those, I usually wait around for a pickup back to my area. But I only accept them if I know it's a hot zone.
@@theartfullynk6618 Good idea. I guess it depends on the area. There's a big difference between the sticks and a bedroom community with a power strip area, you know?
Denver UE driver here, shop n pay, much like Apple/Wal-Mart orders have great payouts, I get the amount offered, whereas, with restaurant deliveries, I only get a portion of the offered amount so for me, I tend to do a lot of shopnpay, as many Wal-Mart or Apple deliveries as the tips are higher. Again that may just be me but it's true so far
Do you have a video about setting up a bank since we are independent contractor should I go with Ubers bank are get a regular bank account should I open a business account if so what name should I use my name or is it a business name
I noticed that this weekend. Uber eats said surge pay $2 but I only got $1.50.
So if you're getting a "guaranteed" amount by Uber Eats like $255 for 30 deliveries. You should go for no more than 5.6 miles per delivery if you want $1.5 per mile?
Do these surges pop up in all markets? Only been doing a month. Only promotion seen are certain areas are between 1.1 and 1.6. Haven't seen quests or dollar surges on uber eats.
I’m new to Uber eats n was recommended by my coworker who works on his own hours but I’m ebiking it n modify it what would u recommend for a first timer n I’m trying to get my wife into it PT but wants to see how things work n have gotten some orders but small n far away n don’t want to rush but my coworker said I should take anyways what would u recommend thanku
Red Robin is Mr.Beast burger in my area in Rockford Illinois
I'm new to Uber but I find that I can out drive Ubers directions/GPS. For instance: I get off a freeway and have a choice at a light to go straight, turn left or turn right. Uber shows straight. at the light, in traffic, it now says turn left. The cure, for me, is look up your destination address and go to google maps instead. I've even wound up in a huge parking lot when I should be 2 blocks away. Frustrating. Just a heads up that may help.
do you guys thing food delivery will be a good side hustle after i get out my 9-5? also what hours of the day are most profitable
Hi Mike thanks for all the the tips . I've been driving a week or so and find the Uber app will cunningly and constantly take me out of my zone and then I find I'm dropping orders in the middle of nowhere , miles fromy zone it will have you delivering orders on the moon if you let it . Do you advise staying in zone and declining other orders or pausing the app after drop off until your back in zone ? What's your take on this please ?? Thanks
Well you didnt get a reply from mike but personally it all depends on how high a mile/cash it is. If it takes you into the middle of nowhere with no businesses you basically have to drive back to a new business zone and if you don't know the business zones that well you have to drive back to the one you were in. In that case double the miles and ask is this delivery still 2.00 a mile or whatever bar you set to accept your deliveries. if not don't accept but if it was a really lucrative delivery then it is worth it to take the hit
Interesting.
Hi great video very informational, I had a question ive been doing uber eats for about a week now part time just to earn some extra cash and its been going alright but I've not encountered these surge areas you mentioned. On the map it does show me arrow that mark the busy areas and they turn darker the busier they are but it doesnt mention anything about paying extra. Any idea why this is? thanks
Surge is only available in select locations.
Lol did my first uber eats drive today and encountered the virtual restaurant, I was confused for a solid 5 minutes until I called the business number hahaha
For some reason I can’t see surge areas or hotspots which is annoying since I just moved to a new state so I’m trying to learn my area.
Thanks for this. I hate it when I get like a $20 KFC order or something along those lines, get to the restaurant, and get told that they don't have the order, other people tried picking it up before me, and I need to cancel. If it were DD, I would get $10 half pay for compensation. But UberEats only gives me $3 or $4 every time I have them cancel an unfinishable order.
On my app surge pay is not in "+$" format, but instead shown in multipliers. The highest I've seen is like 2.5 or 3x. Also, I've never seen or heard of "Quests." Do you need to opt-in or are these iPhone only or something?
Yeah that’s been happening it regard to big pay out and food already picked up!! We gotta speak out against this
Always kfc
Damn dude, ever since I signed up for uber x and went back to uber eats, I don't even get surges anymore, just zones that say it's busy here, but no surge pay anymore
Driving 5 miles in Los Angeles could take 30 minutes. It might take 10 minutes in Pittsburgh.
I have been thinking about using Uber eats and maybe instacart for bike delivery I have a E bike
How do I directly change my app to just do Uber eats; sometimes the driver app, it offers me chances to pick up food but most of the time it doesn’t.
Can you give an example on dollars to miles ration. I'm new to this.
If you take an order for $10 going 5 miles, you are getting $2 per mile. So basically, just look at the miles and multiply by 2 and if the pay is less don't accept the order! Hope that helps!
@@arlinelewin2469 yes it does. Thanks for the reply. Hope it helps other newbies coming into the gig business that read the comments.. i learned it the hard way hahaha.
I be so desperate for money I accept every order that pops up but that’s about to stop I think customers don’t realize that these delivery apps are a luxury to have& they should tip very well. I’ve delivered to big houses on a lake& only got 😒 $5.00.
And I don’t shop&pay AT ALL. Places be out of what the person wants the customers never answers the phone. One last thing. Night driving is the worst in the south these people are clueless and NEVER turn their porch lights on. 😡😡😡😡
Typically for delivery jobs you tend to find people in poorer neighborhoods tips better in comparison to richer neighborhoods. Because they understand the struggle. Not always, but typically. It's been like that since older fashion pizza delivery style jobs.
1,000 % agree with EVERYTHING you wrote!
I've never gotten a promotion through Uber.. I've been told it's because I'm signed up through another city, that I no longer live in.. how can I change this??
0:59 facts..this happens to me when I deliver orders for TGIF Fridays, it comes up as another name Conventional Chicken Wings or something. I kept getting lost missing turns I finally called the restaurant and to my surprise they answered Fridays when I called that's when I figured out it was a TGIF Fridays lol.
Can you make an updated uber eats video for 2023 if possible? Me and my friend do it together. I am the passanger and we know about the first rule but I'm thinking maybe we should try to get those deals when they have them. We usually go to the Anaheim, Whittier, Fullerton, Brea, etc CA areas. Some areas are slower then others. We have gotten Walmart orders to which weren't so bad because it's not only him getting the orders. I'm thinking maybe we should do more of these orders.
what about the new uber plus card how dose that work
I am curious what is the creator’s driver rating at Uber Eats, Blue Gold Platinum, Diamond ?
Doesn’t declining all these deliveries take away your rating, since you must maintain a high acceptance rate ?
Also curious what is the creator’s acceptance rate ? 10%, 30% or more ?
Is it preferable to sacrifice your rating to turn down lots of poor paying deliveries ?
Seems like you must turn down the majority of deliveries to get to the better miles to pay ratio of $1.50-$2,00+/mile deliveries ?
I've wondered the same.
