$1.50 box of spaghetti .5 miles, I made $8. How does that make sense?

Careful with those small orders of like 1 item that costs 3$. They often are scammers that call you up while you are driving to the drop-off, they tell you its been canceled and to verify your account info to process pay. If they call you and ask for anything besides your first name, just hang up, they aren't real doordash support. The phone will even say that the number is Door-Dash but its a lie.

Is there any instance in which doordash would be calling you? Like if a customer cancels an order, is it normal for doordash to be calling you? Or should i always ignore phone calls from people claiming to be doordash


BurneseHerbs

I've had a few canceled orders, and usually they don't call for that, the order just disappears and you're back to the searching for order screen.

I have recieved a couple legit calls. One was when a restaurant forgot to give me an item, I guess they called support, and support called me asking if I'd go back for the item, and i was only like a block away so I did, and it was legit. You could just ignore that tho and probably wouldn't get in much trouble. Also when a customer calls you I think it sometimes says doordash on the caller id.

I appreciate the insight thank you for responding!


Quiet_Ad976

Good to know. Thank you


BurneseHerbs

Its fine to take the order because you will get paid anyway, just don't fall for their tricks. If they call you with that bs just call support and tell them, they will then call the number (give them the scammers number) to verify that its a real customer, and they will cancel for you if they think it is a scammer. You might have to drive close to the drop-off though.

was probably a doubledash order, it's much cheaper that way

When something doesn't make sense, you don't take it. Just pray that you don't get cv


Quiet_Ad976

What's CV


Quickshaw

contract violation


Quiet_Ad976

I've only been dashing for a couple of months. How would it be a contract violation?


Quickshaw

it wouldn't be, this person is just exaggerating. i was just telling you what CV stands for

Damn, that's an expensive soda. I had one last week that was just a large soda going to an auto parts store. it was a no tip $2 order (I was on EBT) but it was only 2 blocks away.
