The restaurant also has a more direct incentive to actually deliver.
One Friday night here in Sydney, it was raining like crazy - so we ordered in some food from one of the online groups. 2 hours later and multiple talks with support and they were still telling us stories about how it's nearly there.
We eventually called the restaurant directly and the food had been sitting ready for 90 minutes on the counter. The service just had all their gig-economy-staff decide this isn't the gig for them in bad weather, so no one was available to pick it up and deliver it. They said we could pick it up ourselves but we didn't really feel like old food at that point so we cancelled and drove out somewhere else. Being lied to was the most annoying part.
- randycupertino 6y agoI was picking up sandwiches from a local shop and watched 3 doordash/Uber Eats drivers come right after the other to pick up the same order, but they all cancelled it because the restaurant didn't have multiple deliveries for them to pick up at the same time- ie- they were dropping off multiple houses each run. It made me realize why the food was cold last time we ordered from them! From now on I just go and pick up myself.
