No one can compete with DD and Uber. This is a monopoly. Monopolies can pay their workers dirt and overcharge for their service.
DRIVERS: You must stop taking orders under $7.

[Dazlidorne]

5:11 Exactly. Stop trying to be DD, UE! One of the main reasons I multi-app is there are advantages of both. I don't want them to be the same.

I just do DoorDash cause it’s king here in Philadelphia. Platinum is necessary to make money in Philly. I have UberEats on standby but still DoorDash is king. Most places that have only one service almost always have DoorDash as their sole service .

I've been doing PPO for a week and tried PPT this evening. I live in the Asheville NC area. I made $3.50 an hour including expenses and that's with decent tips. I usually make around $10 an hour on PPO regardless of what strategy I use.

[BuzzMediaUS]

We predict a lawsuit that's based on the fact that drivers (even in busy markets like LA) are sometimes waiting around for 1-3 hours before they get a single offer. This results directly in drivers making as little as $4 - $8 per hour. We feel that states (especially CA) will re-evaluate the Pay Adjustment since now it's only based on Active hours. Paying based on Active hours is ludicrous in so many ways. What makes it even stranger, is Platinum Dashers are waiting hours for any offers, much less legitimate offers.

Shipt in my market has far out distanced DD. If you are willing to hustle and shop multiple orders at once here you'll make 25 to 40 an hour on average. I get lucky if I hit 20 an hour on DD. I'll spend 1 hour shopping 2 to 4 orders. Spend the next hour delivering. Easy peasy. Every 2 hours I'll be up 50 to 80 dollars. DD is backup or if I want to stay out late. I'll just say this. My last pure doordash shift was 14 hours on a Friday. I made nearly 300 before gas and taxes. With Shipt I do that in 8 to 10 hours most days and that's before my tips hit. My record for one day was 639.74 mostly shipt until just after dinner rush started then swapped to DD. Juso ya know shopping is not worth it unless you do multiple orders at once. It's physically and mentally exhausting. Lol.

EBT would ruin me. The main reason my AR is so low is the loooong drives. I cannot be doing 30-50cent per mile runs. Those 6-12 mile drives are going to be upwards of 45 minutes. I’m already stuck with some trips that are only 3-4 miles and can take 25–30 minutes to complete. I keep considering it but I just can’t do it. They already try to move as far away from my main area as possible.

Uber is useless now. 9 out of 10 times it’s 2-5 for 6-8 miles. Lowes, Office Depot, pets mart, Walmart, Popeyes, golden chick. These are the only places they send me offers for and they are always way too far. I used to do far more with UE but as soon as school started the bottom fell out. $400 a week being available and ready to go 12 hours a day. Going four hours easy without a single offer.

Been on the waitlist for DD for 2 years in Fayetteville, NC.. Uber eats got me in after 3 days when the background check came back. I have no choice.. smh

During my last lunch rush, i got a $22 for 16 km offer, double pickup and drop off. To good to turn it down. I parked the car and it turns out, . I parked midway between pickups so easy 1.5 km of that run. First order was big, stupid shop made me wait 15 minutes, kept saying it was coming. If the pay wasn't so good I'd have walked after 5 minutes. second order was small. I thought the smaller order was going to be closer or near the end of the big order's run. Turns out the big order is 3km away and the small order was the rest of the 16 km. Soon as i dropped off the first order i was so tempted to just cancel second order and stay in the area. And to top it all off. The entire order was worth a $2 tip.

I’m done with this bs this is the second pay cut rug pull dd has done 2 me. They destroyed my credit and got my car repo when they stole tips and 2018. Pay dropped from 20-30$ an hour all the way down to 16.77$ for 54 hours of work. I wish everyone good luck but I can’t take it anymore. All money ain’t good money

[TrickyLy]

Been waitlisted for DD for 2 months now, logged in today and it from saying waitlisted to they are not accepting in my area. UberEats got me in on day 1 and I’ve been putting in 20-30 hrs a week. So I’m biased but hope UE takes over all the DD market in my area.

[gouravkaushik]

Im a new dasher but its not working in my area. What can i fo now. I want to start my dashar app asap😢

[Menarelikewine]

They both suck. Two horrible predatory disgusting companies.

[ijunior]

Idk around me both are pretty good in my opinion. I turn on both because they both can be slow at times. I’m bound to get an offer on one.

[joesmith]

They need to put a limit and restrictions on thumbs downs like don't allow a customer give negative feedback until they contact support... i had a customer give me a negative after delivery and they called me right after drop off she said her food was wrong... i triple checked the order had her name.... she yelled at me saying she got a slider and thats not what she wanted she said she ordered the chicken tender... i went back to the resturant they showed me their receipt and the order was for a slider a sandwich... so this confused lady doesn't even know the difference between slider and tender

[Nihte]

I see more orders on DD, but I see better its on uber eats

[joeyjo]

Uber needs to stop accepting too many new drivers. This helps existing drivers make more money. I used to be able to make some decent cash in 2021 but now the market is over saturated but of course Uber will not give a damn because they are making money regardless. Now you see people doing it every where. That app is trash!! $2 or $3 orders is a joke !! Can’t even make $30 a day

Whew my ADHD would not allow me to finish this video. Felt very drawn out and circling of the point, to the point I lost the point and had to go. Silver lining, I did end up side questiong and the video finished in the background. Kind of like gig work, a win is a win, I guess.

[MarcelHoskins]

DD is better for me in Chicago. I make more money on plat status ($600-1k) weekly

[christravels]

I'm an Uber Eats driver, and I wonder if anyone is experiencing this as well. Sometimes, the app will randomly switch my settings to accept rides. Often times, right after I've delivered, it switches on me. Sometimes as I'm driving back to my wait spot, so then I have to quickly switch back. While I'm driving. Anyone else having this happen?
