“The Platform needs to be UPDATED”

Julian C.
6/4/22

The overall experience is prime as a driver. The GPS could be better. I want to change from bicycle to scooter class due to prop 22, but won't allow me too. Aside from the flaws, I enjoy driving for the service. Uber eats has great tips at times. We have to buy our own equipment as business owners tho

“Just horrible…”

Dena C.
11/14/24

Absolutely worst food delivery service out there. Poorest customer service ever. Issues never get resolved. Tried via email, chat and phone! Nearly $50 on food that sat on a shelve in the restaurant ready for over two hours. This food is no longer safe to eat! Three different delivery people and it still took over two hours. Complaining was ZERO help and they refused to refund. Said I'd hear back from an escalation department. Never did! Money wasted. Will never use them again! Crooked company.

I am absolutely blow away at the dishonesty, disingenuousnesses and intentional price gouging (borderline theft) that Uber eats is doing to their customers and consumers.

My family was up charged $16.58 for pizza which sold at the store for a fraction of the price (I even checked the Papa Gino's website to verify in Bridgewater Mass, have the pictures but cannot upload due to space limitations on the site). $49.62 total for two large cheese pizza and one large pepperoni cost me $66.20 on my Uber eats bill at the hands of this thieving company. Not to mention the $9.00 dollar service fee which is added on for who knows what real reason (I'm assuming the owner enjoys taking advantage of family's and regular working people trying to get by in life) My family and I also provided a tip to the driver.

Disappointed is an under statement to say the least, it is an absolute atrocity, and this company should be put out of business. I'm sure the better business bureau is already aware, not to mention undercover stories from reputable national news networks looking to expose this fraud. I hope those who feel the same as I will band together with proof of price gouging for a class action lawsuit.

Extremely disgusted (shame on Uber),

Nick

We all know Uber Eats is not free. They have fees and tips on top of taxes and cost of order. They don't care if the order is wrong, if you have missing items or if there is a constant complaint with one specific restaurant. Instead, they blacklist you for making too making complaints or requests with no attempts to reach out to those restaurants or blacklist them for inaccurate service. But again, we can't complain with our hard earn money. Too many orders are wrong or have missing items and they do nothing about the order or OUR money. Are they paying? NO! But they sure aren't correcting issues either. This Burger King in Houston did not send me a frozen coke—I got a regular—completely forgot to include my whopper, ice cream that resembles a milkshake, sent me overly cooked, cold and salty onion rings and nuggets, provided no condiments or utensils whatsoever and do not bother answering their phone (neither web nor receipt number). Trust me, I called within 2 minutes of my delivery and got no answer anywhere. Uber doesn't ever help—they disclaim but are quick to take your money and if you've made more than one complaint (yet you have dozens of cab rides and food orders under your belt) you get an automated message about why they won't assist or refund you. Now I don't want a refund, I want to give bad reviews for service. If I could report them to the bbb, I would. Everyone who gives bad service should be reported. PERIODT!

I'm not lying when I say...Uber eats has the worst drivers and customer service when there is a problem. I rarely have issues with door dash but with uber eats 9 out of 10 times there is an issue. Either delivery to the wrong address or a missing item or missing half the order. I realize you don't need a high education to deliver goods, but some common sense would help. For uber eats, a way to refund a customer if a restaraunt doesn't have an item or they forget to put it in. Uber eats had the audacity to send me an email stating I had too many requests for refunds and they would no longer refund me. How is an error made by the restaraunt or the driver, the customers fault? They told me to rate the restaraunt as the remedy for missing items. Ok...I can do that, but who is going to refund my money? Many times I had to go to the restaraunt or call them to tell them I didn't get items. They never issue a refund because they don't have the card there. Most times they tell you "next time you come in we will give you the item". Ha! Ridiculous! Defeats the purpose of getting food delivered if you have to solve the issue and go pick up item later...what if a disabled or elderly person couldn't go get it? The restaraunt keeps your money and uber basically tells you to piss off and blames YOU, the customer. This is the worst customer service to operate like that! Do yourself a favor... bypass the headache and join door dash!

Ubereats charged me $35 for a $16 salad when the restaurant canceled my order! Use DoorDash or Grubhub! Don't ever use Ubereats! You absolutely cannot get anyone in customer service!

We have tried UberEats twice now. The first time a few weeks ago me and my two friends ordered burgers. It took over 1 1/2 hours for the delivery and when the driver arrived, she handed us our bag and said "enjoy your $20 burger" like a snob.

Last night we attempted it once again as we order from Buffalo Wild Wings. We received notification that the driver had picked up our order but would be making another delivery first. After 1 hour 40 min we received notification our order was delivered? We were sitting in our garage with drinks and nobody EVER showed up! I was refunded for the meal but lost the tip money for the driver.

So the driver decided, nah. I ain't driving out there, kept the food, made the same tip and screwed the customer who had been waiting for nearly two hours for their meal.

Fooled once shame on them, fooled twice shame on me this time. I've never had a bad experience with DoorDash and I'm sorry I tried something different. That will NEVER happen again.

From the Twin Cities and the drivers name was Liben.

Tip for consumers:
Do yourself a favor and stay far far away. DoorDash is a good business model and reliable.

I wish I had seen this reviews before ordering from uber eats. I was not feeling well, caring for my husband with end stage liver cirrhosis and kidney failure. Had a guest visiting from out of town. So I thought let me order from Uber eat. I was so generous, also tipped 20% and paid extra for priority service. The food was diluvered to the wrong address, a picture of the food sitting in front of some house was sent to me. Tried connect to Mohammed the Uber eats delivery to say it was not my house. It was impossible to connect with him and impossible to connect with Uber eats app. It was dark and I am a 65 year old woman, went round the neighborhood to look fir the food to serve my guest and me. I was tired and unwell, and frustrated. I got in my car and went to pick food from my son's restaurant. They eventually refunded me in Uber cash, but they did not refund me the 20% tip. The Uber eat is a con business. Please please don't order from them. They are cunning and sky, I don't care, it is a $58 loss but I will never use that app. Just wanted to let you all know.

To Whom it May Concern,

I have tried using uber eats twice. Both times I picked Buffalo Wild Wings in Columbus MS for my food provider. When I ordered the first time I was advised that it would take 40-50 minutes for the food to be delivered. After waiting for
Nearly 2 hours I called and cancelled the order. The order delivery time kept extending. And we decided it would be easier to go get something vs wait an indefinite period. My next experience was with Buffalo Wild Wings again.
This time I ordered and was given a wait time of 40-50 minutes again. After an hour of waiting my order was cancelled. I Have no idea who cancels orders or why. This is absolutely one of the poorest ways to let someone know
They wont get their order tonight. There is no one to call or discuss the issue with. So basically I have done nothing but try to use Uber Eats and as a customer I was $#*! on twice. I am a platinum AX card holder and I must say
I am extremely disappointed in the uber eats business program, especially when it comes to delivery times and the ability to follow up with a person should your order get cancelled. I would bet my AX payment next month which would
Total over 10k, should I give uber eats and Buffalo Wild Wings another shot, the order will get canceled or after 2 hours of waiting I will cancel it. There is no reason to wait for 2 hours for delivery. I literally live 2.0 miles from the store.
What can you do for me as an unsatisfied customer? I doubt anyone reads or replies. So like ordering with uber eats, I will have wasted my time again..

I order many times from Uber Eats and just had a problem on my last order regarding the Tip.
Whenever I place an order, i remove the Tip and give the Deliver person a Cash tip. For this order, I gave the Delivery person $5.00 when they delivery my order.

Well, the next day I got an email from Uber Eats and they are charging me an additional tip for $5.07,

I called their customer service and spoke for about 45 minutes with a person named Zarah, and she told me that I will receive an email regarding my issue after we speak. She could not give me back a credit for the Charged Tip and I was told I will recieve an email the next day. Well, I didn't receive any emails so I called back today and was told the same thing by another customer representative named Maya. I got the "Run-Around".

I can't believe this company is dishonest and with no integrity and have no regards for their customers. I usually order about six times a month but I will not longer place an order with them.

I don't like being ripped off and their App will be deleted from my mobile.

1. Drivers get to restaurant, but then cancel the order forcing Uber Eats to find another driver only for them to do the same. Dudes, just go to the place and pick up the order and bring it here!
2. Drivers take the longest routes possible when the shorter routes would guarantee food safety is being met! Where are you guys going, going in the OPPOSITE direction of my house!?
3. Good luck getting straight answers, cause they have an automated bot replying and not fully grasping what you're telling them.
4. I pay for priority service, in the hopes that they aren't taking alt routes to get to my place. That they take the order straight here. In the hopes that the food will be edible. It is an absolute joke.
5. Uber Eats is a business designed to pick up orders and bring them to the customers. But they are no longer efficient.
6. Oh and good luck getting EVERYTHING in your order. They will not double check the order to make sure everything is there. I've been shorted menu items because the stores went "Here you go" to uber eats and NEITHER ONE checked to make sure everything was THERE.

Tip for consumers:
Make sure you put in instructions, to tell both uber eats and restaurant to double check the order is complete. Make sure you give adequate instructions about where your driveway is located. Make double certain that you check the order as well when it arrives. Do not become complacent sheep about this. Speak up, use your voice and don't let people walk all over you.

After I had made my purchase, and the restaurant I ordered from was "wrapping up" the restaurant called and informed me that they ran out of what I had ordered which I do appreciate them for doing that. I told them I was canceling my order, I then informed the Uber delivery person who wasn't even close by the restaurant at the time and then contacted Uber Eats. Uber eats charged me $15 for canceling, I explained why I canceled and the $15 charge was unnecessary, I asked for a refund since the restaurant didn't have what I had ordered. They explained some bs policy and refused to refund me. Definitely canceling my Uber Eats account.

UberEats' Customer "Service" department must be trained to lie and stall and delay and fabricate excuses. Because that's what they do. Not just inept, which can happen with Customer Service, but them actually lying through their teeth. You cannot trust them. They spout a barrage of scripted excuses that don't even align with each other (refund 'delayed' a month due to "an outage", then "tech issues", THEN they say their "special escalation team" is "looking into the refund" to "resolve"). And even when you simply have a question you want answered, not an order issue or problem but just seeking some basic information about a promo or whatever, their replies are a bottomless pit of them not even reading the question and just punching some automated reply that has nothing to do with the question at all. So UberEats is not worth it. None of the delivery services are perfect but at least the others I've used don't seem to be raging liars and thieves, as Uber Eats support is trained to be. Stay away from UberEats if you value your peace of mind; their Customer "Service" ("Support") is a hellhole of stupidity and lies. (Doordash has been pretty good so far, some slight customer service ineptness one time but at least they're not outright cheating their customers as UberEats does on the regular).

After initially emailing and explaining that the app had suggested the food would not arrive for 3 minutes (it kept saying that it would be another 3 minutes for nearly 20 minutes), and that they should look into their app they suggested I rate the driver and call the restaurant.

First of all, I've told them that the concern is the application itself (that they should look into) which after emailing them again, they explained that I should rate the driver and call the restaurant. What? Either they don't read their emails properly or their Customer Department is just told to throw out canned responses regardless of what the issue is.

If in fact, somehow this issue was the result of the driver or the restaurant, Uber Eats doesn't seem to take any responsibility for the third parties that they are affiliated with. I've used Skip the Dishes and have only occasionally used Uber Eats. I will no longer being using Uber Eats. Skip the Dishes when faced with issues, take accountability for the product, not directing the customer to follow up.

What a joke.

I'm going to write a letter to corporate headquarters. I was told online that under no circumstances could I get a refund. Lynn told me I could not be transferred to a supervisor as the supervisor would tell me the same thing and then she hung up on me. I spoke to Justin and Charmaine both on online support and no one could help me. They ended the conversation without saying goodbye. I was charged on my checking account $85.32 when it shows $62.15 on Uber. When the order was placed it said 8532 so I went in and canceled it immediately. The restaurant did not contact me Uber Eats did not contact me. I consider this bait and switch I will not be using Uber Eats any longer and I will report them to their headquarters and write a letter about this I can see why the reviews are 1.5. I will go back and I will start using doordash and GrubHub if I need to order food if I need a ride I will use Lyft and so will my whole family and I will be writing a review on China A Go-Go the restaurant and I'm going to call them today when they open.

No one ever use uber eats. What a terrible terrible service. Due to my knee injury I can't drive and it's hard for me to make dinner. So I decided to try uber eats for the first time. BIG MISTAKE! My sons burger was missing, so I try to reach support through the app to no avail, no one responding. So I call McDonald's and they say there's nothing they can do I have to get a refund through the app then reorder to get his burger to him. I google uber eats phone number since I can't get a hold of anyone on the app and have been told my account is restricted and I can't get a refund. I say why and the guy says I don't know. I say I'm injured how is my child going to get his burger? And he says he can't help with that or give me a refund. So I say I don't want a refund then I want the burger can someone just deliver the burger, he comes back saying the delivery driver won't deliver again for free and I would have to reorder the burger (that I already paid for) and pay all the fees again in order to get it delivered. Now I'm feeling extremely frustrated as my injury has caused me to be couch ridden and all I'm trying to do is feed my child so, I ask for a manager and he says one will call me back in 4-10 hours. What a joke. Of course I gave my son my burger, but I'm still hungry and can't move I'm going back to skip the dishes, at least they help when I call support.
