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
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.
NO Phone support. TIME Consuming. Very Buggy both on app and PC... Tried many times to make the same order and this it is frustrating "Something went wrong". While the app suddenly decided to go through after the 5th time the app/pc version does not know what it wants... I insert payment method 50% it declines or gives errors.
The first issue I had a weeks back, ordering asian restaurant. A popup for $20 discount was offered, but when got to the end of the cart to order, it said it cant be used? So I decided just to get something locally. Why do you offer something and revert back from it, I find this practice unfair. Was told from CS they sorry to hear and its not how business should be. But there was no resolution.
Secondly. Beware when making orders. Most recently July 7 2021: Went to the 7-11 on Amsterdam ave to pick up items (the order is completed. On the uber eats receipt). I waited 30 minutes just to be told to come back in 2 more hours. I also value my time, l; im not too happy with the whole entire system and unable to communication with merchant directly either. Was not able to reach them by phone either. On top of this the whole order was not fulfilled properly and incomplete. No alternative item or communication was offered. Only "out of stock, no replacement" on item receipt thats it! The lost of $5 credit in this case, from the 1 time use voucher with no prior notification.
For this current order I was told to come back in 2 hours to get the order. The pc and app seem to have issues (possible bugs and or missing features) that need to be fixed by a technical team) ordering (this was a hassle just to get this order through). I asked to speak to supervisor? The biggest letdown is lack of compensation from Ubereats; so I plan to switch elsewhere
Tip for consumers:
Beware when ordering, buggy on both site and pc. Little to no refunds, exchanges, or communication on incomplete orders. Use other services if problem persists. Customer service is a lackluster.

Would give negative stars if I could. One star is MORE than generous. I wish the poop emoji was a review option! Terrible service. They hire thieves and liars. I placed an order for pizza, saw that my order was picked up and on its way, then all of a sudden it was canceled. Driver said that I canceled it, but that is a lie. He picked up my pizza, then canceled my order and kept the free food for himself. I tried to contact him but his voicemail was full (go figure) so I sent him a text asking about my order to which he replied "umm... I think you have the wrong number lady!" Well, he wouldn't know my gender had he not actually been my delivery person, so no, I did not have the wrong number. I contacted the restaurant to let them know that Uber Eats is stealing from them, and ruining experiences for their customers. Contacted Uber Eats customer service twice now and have not rec'd a response. Humans can be better than this. Will NEVER use them again, and will tell everyone I know to follow suit.

I just got an email from uber support team saying i have more frequent complaint over other customers. Please judge if Starbucks charge $5.24 plus tax for a small americano and forgot to add cream which I requested? I feedback and complained, was I wrong? The other day I ordered one order of choco croissants (with 2 generous portion as per starbucks menu description) but I received only one piece. I complained and the reply was only one piece. Later the tech support encourged me to contact restaurant for more accurate information. Then why do we need to so much extry for UberEat, they can close their busness? I just received an email from Ubereat saying I complain more often than other customers and they may discontinue my service. Who's fault is this? When we had no more pandemnic threat, I wish ubereat and all delivery app will fade out and their business won't survive because this service is not human and terrible customer service. Remember, I had no problem in payment more expensive meals from ubereat but I want above standard service and support. That email is very discriminating and I need to share with others here so we know how to deal with ubereat.

Uber Eats provides a valuable service by delivering food from your favorite restaurants so you dont have to go out and get it yourself. I use their app often, however, there are too many problems with them. They often deliver the wrong or missing items. Sometimes they will compensate you by refunding part of your order, but it doesn't solve the problem that you now have nothing to eat and you have to place another order all over again through them of somebody else. How difficult is it to check the order and make sure that they have all the items that are in the order?
Then, it is impossible to get someone in customer service to help you. It's hard to reach them. If you are able to get in touch with an agent online, they are never able to resolve the issue.
My most recent incident with them was ridiculous. I ordered food from one restaurant, and then Uber gives you the opportunity to place another order with another restaurant and not have to pay any of their delivery/service charges. This is THEIR promotion that they offer. So, we decided to also order ice cream from Carvel. We waited more than 2 1/2 hours for the Carvel order. Then they write me indicating that they couldn't deliver the order because the driver is too busy. And they told me that I could place the order again...
I have 2 problems with that. If the driver is too busy to get my order and it's going to take them three hours, then the driver should not have accepted that order in the first place. Second, by placing this order again, they would not give me the same deal of no delivery/service charges. And their customer service, for some reason, does not even know that they even offer this promotion. THEY are the ones who canceled my order and, in doing so, I lost the promotion and they will not give it to me again nor will they refund me the money.
That is messed up! How do you even run a business like that? They basically offered a promotion and then, once you place your order, they take it away! That is unacceptable! Quite frankly, it's fraudulent.
Their management should be ashamed of themselves, but unfortunately, it's impossible to even get in touch with someone in management.

I signed up based on a referal from a friend, but the promo did not work, when I asked Uber they said I breached my terms of service by signing up but couldn't explain why.
Date of experience: August 16, 2023
If i could go in the negative i would. Downloaded the app because i seen a promotion for 30$ off of My first order. Then it didnt work. I called to ask & i have a video of the conversation... he promised me because the code did not expire if i proceeded with my order paying in full price & called when I received my order id get an imminent refund... called back& after fighting tooth and nail i was promised one in 3-5 business days. Its been over a week or having people being so rude to me over the chat form which i have screenshots of. So I called just now. This women was extremely rude & had no intentions and or interest in helping me. She first said the 2nd caller and proceeded with a refund & i told her i haddent gotten it. Then she told me that i wasnt able to get one. I called her out on what she said before and she said she did not say that... im so done. I explained i was a student and im sure there billion doller company wouldnt miss 32.78$ as much as i would. Full of lies rude people and $#*!ty $#*! customer service. I will keep calling till i get my refund. Dont buy from uber!

@UberEats I'm completely done with Uber Eats. One time I ordered donuts from Dunkin' Donuts. Whoever the driver was had roaches in her car so my donut box had roaches in it it was so embarrassing because the order came to my office at a call center. I used to work to where I shared the donuts with other employees, who saw the roaches so embarrassing I contact Uber Eats support. They tell me I can get a refund strike one. Now yesterday a agent tells me I can't get a refund because I canceled the order. Why would I want to keep my order that is in a totally different city. But one agent told me I couldn't get a refund because I cancel the order but if I would've contacted them and had support cancel the order I would've gotten a refund that doesn't make sense. Then another agent said I waited too long to cancel the order, but show them proof of a screenshot from my bank transaction. The order took place at 2:53 PM show them another screenshot of the transaction being canceled in the Uber app that says 2:53 PM, so how did I wait too long? And how did the restaurant except the order within that time? Then another agent I spoke with said she could give me a refund and never did. Strike two and strike three. Uber eats are scammers.

June 17,2023: My wife just ordered from Uber Eats for Father's Day. $75 order from Taka Japanese restaurant in Wayne, NJ. The Uber driver sent a picture of the door where the food was left through the Uber App which was not our door. When we contacted them to complain that we never received the food and that the house shown on the pic provided by the driver was not our house, several chat people (I chatted with 2 different agents) stated that the order address was correct (which it was) and that the food was delivered to that address, which of course was not true. I told them that their driver did not deliver to the address they confirmed and asked to speak to a manager. Uber Eats would not provide a manager on the chat nor a phone number we could call to speak to someone in person in order to file a complaint. They refused to refund the order, holding to the lie that the food was actually delivered to the address on record. I told them I could send them a picture of our home to prove that their driver was lying, but they simply repeated the lie and stopped the chat 2 times. I have never experienced such poor customer service in my life. I had used them many times before, but will NEVER USE THEM AGAIN after this despicable incident. Uber Customer service is an absolute scam. They will take your money, drop off the food anywhere and then refuse to deal with the customer when confronted. The app provided NO SALES RECEIPT. Shameful.

I placed an order through their website. It automatically set the address of the place I was ordering from. I put my address in the location information for delivery. The delivery driver even called me after she picked up the food to verify. She made a comment that my address was "that far" which I don't know if that meant she didn't feel like coming to my house or she assumed that because my name sounds african american that I lived in a bad neighborhood. She stated that she was going to put the address in the GPS and was on her way. 2 minutes after we hung up, she marked my order delivered and I got a message. We never got our food!. I sent a chat message to Uber eats (they don't have people on the phone to answer complaints or head of possible issues) and the person just kept saying that they couldn't credit me. I was charged for food that I never got and this lady cancelled the order with the tip on it and I was rebilled with the tip separate on my credit card. She probably ate the food and was laughing because they will just let ANYONE drive for them. They need to be shut down for service like this. I will not rest until I get this charge reversed. I ended up driving up there and paying again for food I never got the first time. Sooooooooooooooooooo mad! I did not attach the reciepts because they have my personal info on them. Don't need another issue while trying to solve this one.

My address was incorrectly inputted, I immediately went to change it on the order. "It's too late to change your address!" the website tells me. Really? Too late? A minute after I put it in, a driver hasn't been assigned and it's too late? I'll just call customer support--
Thirty minutes later and my sixth CS person, they tell me they can't. Thirty minutes and six: "we're sending you to a team better able to handle this issue!" to tell me they can't? Then why does the website recommend calling customer support?
So what did they tell me: contact the driver. I would, but the number on the account is old -- and apparently you can't change that either! Amazing. Can't CS do it? Nope! Can't change my freaking number!
While this was happening, I sent the driver three messages. None of them were read, opened, responded to. The food was dropped off in some random parking lot and labelled as "Complete!"
The driver has a little bit of the blame for not bothering to even look at the messages, I have a bit of the blame for not double checking the address, Uber has a huge amount of the blame for making the slightest of issues take forever to (not) resolve!
OH AND THEY CAN'T GIVE ME A REFUND BECAUSE MY ACCOUNT HAS REACHED THE "LIMIT ON REFUNDS"! THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I WAS GETTING A REFUND.

Someone else's order was delivered to me instead of mine (photos show I received Bonchon yet I ordered Hawkers), yet they refuse to refund even though I have proof via my photos as well as the photo that their own (Uber) driver provided when leaving the food, showing the name of the restaurant and I have the receipt photo showing the other customer's name. They say because I had "significant" refunds. Those "significant" refunds were for my previous TWO orders which had to be refunded because of their or the restaurant's mess up, in all my history between Uber and Postmates. Those orders deserved a refund, and this one most certainly does since I never received my food that I ordered and have UNDENIABLE proof I received the wrong order. It isn't even a refund to my bank account I'm asking for. I'm asking for the credit I had on my account back that I used since the last time they messed up. I will be reviewing this (under Postmates and Uber Eats) on every site, contacting their legal team, and my own lawyer, since as I told them - I don't care if it was a small amount - I believe in consumer protections and they are committing fraud by using some hack refund/community policy and not rightfully refunding customers who show proof they are owed a refund.
