Dash With Ash in Canada

I'm Ash
I have a passion for creating content and for the longest time I have been making content about gig work on this channel. I have been self-employed for 2 years now with the help of gig work, TH-cam and even the Amazon Influencer program that started as hobbies and then side hustles to now shifting to part time income. That's why on this channel you will find a lot of Uber Eats delivery content, a bit of DoorDash content, a not so polite amount of Instacart content and tutorials and of course a bit of Skip the dishes. Also on this channel you will find some content related to the Amazon Influencer program and TH-cam because without those combined , I would not have the freedom to enjoy self employment the way I do now. I want to help you the best way I know how and that's by...Making content.

Is Uber Eats Playing Games With Background Checks?
I have been a part time Uber Eats delivery driver for 3 years and Uber Eats asked for 1 background check when I first started. Fast forward to 3 years later, I have still not been asked for one but some people have...with a charge. Many people want to know does Uber Eats charge for a background check...Well they do for some and they don't for others. No where on Uber Eats website does it say Uber Eats delivery drivers will be charged for a background check so obviously they have a lot of grey in the middle. I think it's great to require background checks but it's not okay to randomly charge people for it WITHOUT updating policies. Now I could be wrong and it might be updated on their website (Or they will after this video) but either way...Only some seem to be selected for a Uber Eats driver background check.

Gig Work Is Worse Than Brussel Sprouts To Me.
Sounds to me like they've figured out a way to pay out less to the drivers. SMH I dunno, sounds shiesty to me lol Hope you have a good one Ash!!
When are they not looking for a way to pay us less lol ?
This video just reminded me that there's a pile of dirty dinnerware in my sink that came from skipping the dishes all week 😂
🤣🤣🤣
I hate grocery shopping. So I started tipping massively on DoorDash. Then a lady knocked on my door. We had a conversation now I just pay her cash I save money and she makes a hell of a lot more.
If it's for groceries. Absolutely , since we are apparently just express drivers sadly.
Two day ago is my first day! Great work
Best of luck!
I haven't got anything about a fee
Good , I hope it stays that way
I didn’t know Uber did this. I’m glad they haven’t made me pay for one (yet). I don’t do skip the dishes but it seems like they are much more transparent and upfront about the fee. I don’t like how Uber treats some of there drivers better than others.
I second that. Skip does have those upfront costs but they are transparent , Uber lacks so much transparency.
Thanks for talking about this topic, I started UE delivery few weeks ago. They did the background check and they took 11$ from this week pay. I think it will be two installements of 11$ . I taught it was free but nope. At least they should tell us that it is not free but they just withdraw the money when you start earning. By the way we are in the same area at rive-sud :)
They didn't provide any written notice before taking the money ? I have never heard of someone new being charged yet , all of us had it free. Haha seems to be quite a few of us rive-sud folks!
@@DashWithAshinCanada nope I didn't receive any notice before taking the money. I just saw the line: Autre - Déduction of 22$ for background check: $11.0 is deducted in two installments :)
Another great video Ash. I believe that only Uber rideshare drivers require the background check every year. I think for uberEats drivers, they only do the background check for the onboarding. I think they make money from the background check now??? So, we pay money for Uber to work for them. 🤔🤔🤔
So that's the thing , my brother is not a ride share driver. Never signed up for it ever , he's only a Uber Eats driver and that's why I titled the video about Uber Eats. He's never even done the car inspection or the test required to be a rideshare driver.
I am not currently doing courier work. But I did just go back on the app to see if there was any new document requests, currently only my insurance needs to be updated, no request for a new background check. I did go back through my emails to see what the differences were. Doordash was free with Chkr Cornershop was free with Triton Instacart- none Uber - none (may have used the Cornershop screening) Skip - $30 (+$20 for bags in a deal) through Talentwise. The bags alone were worth it. So that's how I got over my crankiness.
See, I don't understand why they are trying to charge him...Maybe they assumed he was a rideshare driver when he isn't? Hope everything is going well with you Carman!
@@DashWithAshinCanada Could be. Uber does do arbitrary weird things. My health hasn't been the best the last while (that's why not doing courier work), but I have other work so I'm okay. If I mend back towards better health, I will go back to the courier work as I do love it.
I've done 1free background check in the 8 months I've driven. I drive everyday, have perfect stats, and have never used the overdraft. If they ever ask me to pay for anything I will quit.
I don't blame you , I've had nothing in 3 years and if they asked for free. I'm game , but to charge no.
@@DashWithAshinCanada The problem is the offers are getting very insulting. If I were to accept most of them I'd be making $5-$10/hr. They aren't paying enough to justify any extra expenses.
How are you paying for their stuff at check out
With the Instacart card , you can have it physically or digitally
I had to do a second background check last year on my 2 year anniversary, but I did not have to pay for it. But I just do eats, I would imagine because you're brother does rideshare as well uber is more strenuous with his checks. Knock on wood 95% is the lowest rating I've had.
He doesn't do ride share , he only does Uber eats , that's why I mentioned Uber eats in the title because neither one of us do ride share.
Too much complexities in ubereats tbh next they would just have they own police and require us tests for drugs alcohol oxygen we breath etc 😂
Hahahaha , wait they don't do that already ? 🤣😅
Charging for background check ???? 😂😂😂😂😂 ill stick with doordash maybe when i return delivering
Watch DoorDash try something next.
@@DashWithAshinCanada didnt got you
Las night for fist time in 2 years I got a double order for 19 dollars after delivering the order one hour later I just got paid 3.71 was cold under 25 where I live I didnt know they could do that i called costumer service they said the two costumer remove the tip. I’m not doing uber anymore I do delivery like a partime job and I think DoorDash is enough they never do that
Only for platinum, wow, that sounds like a scam, definitely not a good incentive, just subscribe, New TH-camr here let's connect and grow together
Thank you! Wish you all the best!
So complicated
Yup , I mean it's easy overall but a bit complex at first
I did decline those crappy orders and now my acceptance rate is at 3%. 2/10 orders that pop up are worth accepting. And at 3% acceptance rate you get more crappy orders that other drivers have declined so i can't really get that number up and only drivers with high acceptance rates are offered good/worthy orders because they're like to accept them. The algorithm is poorly designed. I know this cuz my earnings in the beginning were around $700-$900 a week to now averaging 3-400 a week in the same amount of hours!
It's not true that drivers with higher acceptance rates get better orders, I have a 5% with Uber now and I make decent, its about many other factors like which month, saturation and such but not all about the acceptance rates.
I see how the peak pay and area excludes where I see way more hot spots.
Yeah those hot spots aren't really a thing anymore lol
That’s too much
Yup , it can be a lot
I do DoorDash in Florida and I have completed over 2400 deliveries in 2 years. I am a platinum dasher and for me I do the things to keep that status mainly for the Dash Now perk. If you don’t have Dash Now, you have to wait for it to get busy enough for them to open the platform to everyone and it only lasts for an hour before you’re knocked off, unless it’s busy. Without Dash Now you have to schedule yourself or just jump on when it’s open and hope you get enough deliveries. I work in an area with a lot of low income households and they make sure they get their food but don’t tip a penny! That’s my biggest problem. That “perk” that says you’re getting higher paying offers is offensive really, because I have gotten orders for a single coffee, and tonight I unassigned an order because it was 10 miles, one way, for 1 Burger King burger. I make enough to contribute to my household, but I don’t know if after buying gas, oil changes, tires, and brakes, if I make more than $7 or $8 an hour. But it gets me out of the house and a little money is better than no money. 😊
I enjoyed reading what you had to say about it Gregory! It's all about that incentive to make more money for most of it but to read that it's truly not a big thing with being a Platinum driver is honestly...Not a surprise. I wish these companies, regardless if it's DoorDash or any of the others would stop lying and just be transparent about this all but sadly, they keep doing what they are doing.
I did two separate on Uber eats I guess the driver pick them both up he couldn't figure out where my apartment complex was and I knew something was sketchy about it and I never got my food and it only refunded me half of my money even though I had two different orders and neither one of them got delivered. I'm very angry about that because it was a buy one get one free from The shake shack😂😂😂😂
I wonder if the buy one get one free applied for the credit too lol Yeah the gig companies when it comes to food deliveries is not so great.
It's only an average of 25 deliveries per week it's really easy to get 100 deliveries in a month
True , but is the incentives even worth the offer ?
It’s 3.3 deliveries a day. So some days you do 3 and some you do 4 😂😂
If I did orders daily lol I do orders about 3-4 days a week for about 3-5 hours depending on the day and about 50% of the time I can't get onto DoorDash to do orders lol
Hi ask, what is your insurance for skip the dishes? Did you get commercial insurance? THanks
So when it comes to insurance companies , it's a hard topic. Yes you need commercial insurance but the hard issue is some insure for Skip , some insure for only Uber. You have to call around and ask. I don't talk specifics about my insurance only because there's so much grey in the middle when it comes to the conversation about insurance.
@@DashWithAshinCanada Thank you
UberEATS probably stealing the tip and saying the customer reduced it there's no way to know for sure unless you're a computer hacker
Yeah , honestly that's crossed my mind before because we have no way of telling
It's bullshit and in 2025 don't be a dummy!!
Haha good point!
Damn, seems like they're actively TRYING to run off all the dashers lol those "benefits" aren't very beneficial to anyone except DoorTrash. Hope you're having a good one Ash!!
Yeah they aren't worth...you know what lol
@DashWithAshinCanada the paper they're written on? And seeing as they're written on no paper, that would make them worthless 😂
DD is a scam. I once got a special "catering order" and they pay was like $8.00 for 4 km. So, what is great about doing more work for the same amount of money? This scummy company hopes you will accept their Dasher rewards, so you will pick up their trash? When I saw that catering order I was just F**king disgusted. First, the corporate customer that tipped so little is literally a POS. Second, how is this a "high value" order? So, I transport 4-5 bags or trays of food but get the same amount of pay, as someone who delivers a customer's McDonald's order or Popeye's order which is like 1 bag max. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
I have only had 2 catering orders, and they were both after this video was filmed and I made big money off them, well one for sure because it showed $8 for 8km (normally I would say no) but it turned into $32 after. My point is I wasn't anywhere never the stats they wanted me but I still got it making this incentive to not match what they show us on a regular. Big scam as you said.
This is similar to what I told you the other day why I don’t cherry pick like I used to. In my market silver requires a 60% and gold requires 80% like platinum which is slightly different from yours. Big reason I think Uber is better for you than me is because you live in a more international vibe of a city (not like Toronto), Doordash is better for me here.
I get what you mean Jonas. Uber has their tiered offers different in my location VS others, I didn't know DD had it like that too. I guess they all do.
Dasher rewards is the biggest scam in human history. I actually tried being a top/platinum dasher for two months. Trust me the only "priority" you get is priority to all the terrible orders. I was making way less money trying to maintain 70% ar.
Yeah, I still agree to this the most. I try to be on both sides of things because some people highly believe in it but at the end of the day, I don't believe it's truly a thing for higher ratings.
Curious what do you think about going to a smaller zone less food places. Hope less dashers. Ubereats I have been getting a lot of upsided down orders.
I'm not against it , some markets are better in more quiet areas since other drivers aren't there. I prefer that at the end of the week when orders are naturally higher.
It might be worth a try, I have a friend who lives and dashes in Idaho Falls, Idaho and he sometimes goes to Blackfoot or even Twin Falls and when he’s done Doordash in Twin Falls, which is definitely smaller, he has told me that the volume and payout on orders has been better. Might as well give it a try to find out.
@@DashWithAshinCanada Okay thank you.
But it takes 12*2=24 km in case and 19,40 is not good for this at all .Car maintenance+fuel cost more than this
True , I definitely see your point
Im only doing Intacart as a start to work day. Live in middle of Nowhere so Only 1 Food loin so will never get a multi store order. I never accept a Multi order Batch. WIll Only waste 30 Minutes out of my day waiting for a Order. Not driving hour away for any order unless my take home in over $30 even then after dropped of Switching to Door Dash since dont have to drive back to store before get another order. I may do 2+3 orders on instacart MAX before switch to door dash since lot less stressful just dropping off orders and dont have to waste time shopping
Only stores would ever shop Local foodloin or Publix Kroger or Sams Club the isles are all marked. Would never attempt Alidis since just setting yourself up for huge produce orders which take forever
Yeah I agree that doing food deliveries can be more beneficial depending on your area. I do shopping but only for Uber now.
I feel so stupid. I took an order that was 500 lbs. Had waters, food, pops, dog food 30lb, alcohol., 1 bottle, 2 stores Costco and Sam's complete opposite directions of each other, 3 different drop offs and the total came to $429.00 - My pay was $51.00. I feel so used and it took me 4 hours. They said they paid me heavy pay and they didn't. The waters were 42.25 lbs each. I feel so screwed on this order.
I'm sorry that happened to you, Tamara , that's why I find Instacart the worst of them all. $51 for all that is not okay. Instacart themselves are not okay.
So in September, I pushed to get my DD AR from my typical 15% to 84% because it matters now to get on the schedule when it comes out at 3pm. I knew you and others may not agree with me on this, but ever since I don’t get as much trashy orders like I used to when I cherry picked. I even had a few days where I made $200 which has been really rare to make in a day in the last year and a half. Me personally I can’t afford to cherry pick especially in my market at least. I’m sure lots of people will disagree and even try to shame me for not cherry picking. At the end of the day, it’s not right and worth it for anyone to shame anybody for not cherry picking. Some people make money cherry picking and some people don’t. I feel like what I’m doing works for me and if cherry picking works for you and others great. I hope you take these things to consideration as well.
I would say most of us aren't shaming for cherry picking we just have issues accepting less from these companies, but I understand where you are coming from. I am giving in a bit more to lower paying offers otherwise I am missing out on making a decent total so I get it.
Face to fact, 12 million people illegally entered our country in the past three years. When you had a shit ton of workers, the demand and the base pay goes down. It’s like that with everything. Jobs in my area pay on average $2-$3 an hour or less than they did four years ago. The only people that benefit off all these people illegally entering or the rich business owners in corporations at the taxpayers expense
I can't deny what you are saying and that's why these companies capitalize on that factor, it's a horrible feeling to be treated like a nobody at the end of the day but yes, your reasoning is correct.
Do you have any info on the side gig tax coming up and what information is being given to the CRA
By side gig tax you mean information about how to file your taxes? For that I recommend a tax advisor because it can be a bit messy. I am not a tax accountant so I refrain from going over things because If I am wrong, that means others is wrong and I don't want to bring others down with me.
@@DashWithAshinCanada I am just curious as to what information Uber is being required to submit? I don't think they would submit a t4 to the cra as we are independent contractors. There are changes coming end of January 2025 but Uber support does not know how to answer this question and was not sure if change makes taxes easier to keep track of or will it still be the contractor submitting their earnings
@@jenh5582 So they give us a annual statement still the same and we as gig workers file a T2125 tax form, rather or not they will fix that up for us in the future I am unsure but I hope not because these companies don't even track our distant that we actively drive around to get a order so if they pre fill the forms for us, we are all going to feel the heat.
Ash i have tried to get my tip back. I contacted support but can never get it escalated to the manager. The support tells me that the issue has been escalated as far as it can go and will not put me in contact with the manager. Any suggestions?
Let them know that they are not respecting your rights to physically speak with one and see how that changes things.
@DashWithAshinCanada Thank you. Will keep trying. Appreciate your help.
I only do DoorDash. I could careless about others
That works too!
Same thing happened to me. After 3 years and 1000 deliveries and now im loosing my.apartmemt. i did nothing wrong, the app gliched on a stacked order
Wow, if it's only once though you shouldn't be kicked off the app or anything.
Hi ash .. actually im new to skip firstly I created my account in winkler Manitoba but after sometime i moved to Brampton and now i didn’t change my zone due to unavailability of zone now wt should i do so that i change my zone
You would need to yes because otherwise you can't deliver in your new area but there's no promise that they have spots open there so it might be a waiting game
Do you ever eat your earnings right away 😂😂. I do that sometimes.
Hahaha no , I'm notorious for bringing food or heading home before I eat
