I'm here in the Providence, Rhode Island Market. Platinum. I actually wish I ONLY received shop n deliver offers. DD sent me an email last week stating that I am prioritized to get S n D orders above other dashers. It has been working so well for me in this tiny state. Enjoy your videos!!!
@@YourDriverMike I got two tasks today to verify holiday hours for a couple restaurants next door to one another. So that made it easy.
Imagine they let us toggle for tip only orders😂
That would be a game changer lol
Bye bye at least 30% of their customer base
🤣🤣🤣 right
This will be a classic comment one day. 😂😂😂 man that would be amazing
Imagine if you could choose radius or mileage limits so you don't get sent 2 to 3 zones away. Also as a platinum Dasher I feel like you should be able to choose whether you are willing to take 8 $3 orders an hour or no order less than $10. Also the option like they have pause, to add orders until you hit pause.
I don't have a preferences option other than cash on delivery.
I don't mind shop & pay as long as they are up front about the order. For example: is it actually 3 items or 3 carts full of groceries you're picking up? Is this merchant ineligible for tips? And the option to select it like other platforms.
Wish we could opt out of no tip orders. Lol😂😂😂
I wish I could toggle off certain stores like Cane’s chicken fingers. No I’m not going inside during lunch rush to wait 20 mins in long line to order and pay with red card, then wait for that order to be made after all the orders that were taken in front of me, then drive it 7 miles for $2.25 including 25 cent tip. 👍👍👍🤦♂️
I believe you can request this through support... at least we used to be able to. I know I originally requested to be taken off Walmart orders and I no longer received them. Restaurants can also request you be removed as a driver to their store, I believe. So you could ask the restaurant to do that for you.
@@HekylHydeRestaurants can certainly request a driver be removed as a driver from their establishment. Just make sure not to go the route that Chuck @dashingacrossamerica did.
@@HekylHyde Cane's isn't hooked up with DD. So, they cannot remove someone
The end of dash destination was a pilot program for a while in my market a couple years ago but It disappeared when the pilot ended. It was nice though. You’d get a notification i think an 45 minutes or hour (I can’t remember exactly) before the end of your dash telling you to start heading back towards your end destination and it would try to give you orders going that direction. Sometimes it would send you offers going back the opposite direction but they usually weren’t long distance offers. It really helped me out a lot because I live 35 miles outside of the zone I dash in and it allowed me to end my dash on the edge of zone saving me 15-20 minutes on my drive home.
This is my issue with this what if I'm okay to do shopping delivery orders but I only want to shop anywhere from 1 to 5 items I just don't want to shop for 79 items at Aldi's I would prefer if it was setting a limit on how much you're willing to shop for and while we're on that subject how about setting a limit as far as pay and as far as mileage goes.
DD would never give drivers that much customization cuz barely any orders would get done. They limit customization for a reason.
In Augusta GA I only have toggles for deliveries and shop and deliver.
The end of dash destination sounds great. Uber Rideshare has trip preferences so you can filter trips only heading towards a certain destination. If this is the same thing, that sounds really useful.
That’s weird because I Dash in Augusta GA and have toggles for shop and deliver, delivery and cash on delivery. Are you on Android or iPhone? The apps are different depending on which one you have. I’m using an iPhone.
They used to have the end of dash destination in Augusta about 2 years ago but it was only a pilot program and it went away after a few months. I hope they bring it back because I live in Lincolnton and it was so nice being able to end my dash on that side of the zone.
They really need to split the zones around here up though. They’re huge compared with other zones I’ve seen. The Aiken zone is over 40 miles across and the Augusta zone is just as big and with Fort Gordon right smack in the middle of it makes it even worse. I shouldn’t be ending up in Hephzibah or Blythe when I started my dash in Evans.
Yes, I agree, having an end of dash location would be great.
@@cmudd9788 be careful what you wish for because constantly driving back to your zone to get another order is a lot of wasted miles
It would be nice to toggle on and off a specific store, maybe even ban a particular store.
In my market, (Cheyenne WY) I've been able to opt out of shop and deliver and cash orders from the beginning.
I’m in a low demand area of northern New York State. I have the Dasher Preferences but it doesn’t have the same preferences that you showed in your video. I have, and toggled off, “Cash on Delivery”. It would be nice to have a preference where you can opt out of specific grocery stores or specific restaurants. The reception for my phone app is very poor in a particular grocery store in my area, if I don’t accept the order it dings my acceptance rate, but doing a shopping order there is a crap shoot. It would also be nice to not deliver to specific problem customers 😂 and have a black list?
Yes, we need a blacklist for customers.
I don’t know if anybody else noticing that last night I had a 70% rating I accepted two orders and rejected one and it said I moved to a 69% to bring me down to silver. I don’t know how they get somebody needs to teach him how to do math, I should be over from what I did last night. I accepted to rejected one, but I still went down percent DoorDash.
So accepting 2/3 is a 66% ar, meaning it very well could’ve dropped you a percentage. Something else to consider is that it’s based on your past 100 orders, so every new offer replaces the last 100th offer you were given. So it can sometimes drop you multiple percentage points bc you take away an accepted offer from your 100 most recent and add a declined offer, giving you 2 less accepted offers out of 100.
Don't let AR drag you down, since I stopped caring I make more or the same than I did with 80+ AR.
I had the shop and delivery and the food delivery toggle off/on, but it's gone. I watched your video and I checked. It's totally a pilot I guess, in my market. My zone is Iowa City, Iowa.
Man I HOPE they bring back the "end of dash destination" feature. They had it in my market like a year or so ago for a bit and I actually really liked it. When you just need one more order to hit your goal you enable that and it ONLY looks for orders heading close to wherever you pick(home). And unlike some people, I didn't abuse it. It helps filter out all the BS orders lol
I've had the alcohol tab for awhile. I find during holiday weekends the crappy alcohol orders come through. Usually the people tipping are preparing ahead of time. Sometimes later at night you can find those good orders as well.
You're right. Uber already has this feature. It's pretty nice. I will opt out of Alcohol deliveries and Pay With Cash Deliveries. I have no problem doing Shop & Pay Orders. I make sure the item count is low. (3 to 6 items)
Hope everyone has a safe and fun 4th!!
This isn’t available in my market as of yet it appears. I’m near Kansas City, Missouri. Mind you, my AR is the lowest it can go on DD. Great video 👍
Not available at LOTO either
We have hadctabs in boston for 9 months the earn by time does not work because most orders per offer are old or non tip . Drivers won't do. The last 3 days both types of dashes did not work. The ap says 3 to 4 dollars peak pay but no offers
I’m in Seattle I have preferences only for alcohol not shop and deliver
Rural areas around Raleigh had many of these preferences for at least a year: shop, alcohol, etc. Curious about the end location option though 🤔
I just checked my app, unfortunately don't have it in preferences. I have a suspicion that I'm not getting large restaurant orders, because of the occasional large shopping orders. Obviously very frustrating, would much rather do a $15 to $25+ restaurant order that may or may not have a small wait, than spend 30 minutes to an hour shopping. Would be great to toggle shopping off certain times of day.
I am in the Pittsburgh market and dash in the Cranberry/Seven Fields area. No preferences here other than COD.
That's been in my market in jacksonville fl for at least 2 years
same and im in the chicago area. I have been able to toggle off shop and deliver for years, I was like...........wait, this is new for people? O.o
No, north NJ
We had it for alcohol and cash-back Deliveries for the longest in Tennessee. I did about 5 deliveries 6 months ago and they had it cause I took the Alcohol delivery off but it didn't matter I got scared and went back to a w2.I felt like a do boy doing door dash!!!!
I am in Pittsburgh, I do not have the toggle option .
I’m here the Florida pan-handle, and i have the options for shop and deliver, cash on delivery, and alcohol delivery. I turned them all off and was rewarded with more shop and deliver orders and even had some alcohol delivery orders. So, I’m not sure if those toggles are even doing anything anyway. They seem to just be sending you those types of orders anyway no matter what you choose as your preferences.
They're probably like "we said you can mark your PREFERENCE, doesn't mean we're going to actually listen to you" 😂
Although it doesn't have the alchol option mine just shop and deliver cash and regular delivery orders
I'm in the Washington/Thompsonville of South Pittsburgh and have platinum status. The only dasher preference I have is cash on delivery
Do you see a benefit from the tier program?
@@rehtuluv The only benefit I care about is dash anytime
@@luke.dethomas So you don't see a benefit from the tier program like increased income? Bc that's the purpose.
Hi there! I’m in a zone next to you and I didn’t get this. I did get the Dasher pilot program today by email which was odd.
I havent gotten that version of dasher yet!😢
They sent me an email to have priority to shop and pay but after 2 weeks i opt out and my catering orders came back instead of doing 80% of shop and pay
I’ve had it for a while. I’m in Utah.
I'm in nj by the shore and I don't have that. I wish I could turn off alcohol delivery because they almost never tip and the orders are always far.
They should just turn it on for every market so that way they have more people can test it
We have dash preferences in Allentown Pennsylvania
I want people to turn it off so.i can get more if the shop orders. I love ahop orders and will do them all day long
DD will sling more of them at you if you accept them. In my area only a small subset of what I get offered is worth the time / effort / $$ calculation - as alot of the customers in my area want to just use normal DD tipping (often on the low end) and not count for the fact that people have to shop for stuff. Had a lady, I kid you not, do 2 overflowing grocery shopping carts with a delivery up narrow steep stairs and no tip (all the while saying she was going to increase my tip...always a red flag), was on EBT (it said 6 items) so couldn't see her tip. The grocery store told me 2 prior drivers had taken the 1st cart of groceries and then left w/o accepting the order & no delivery, lol.
As an experienced S&D Dasher, I've taken many. Don't accept ones over about 20 items though.
In my market it's been impossible to get on an on ramp to scheduled to deliver. They are not any daytimes available or access to a week out to schedule a time to deliver according to their control filters......why do they need to filter me to work? I'm now at high Gold level but can't get a break to set up a time(s) to drive.... no delivery schedule access = no job = Can't win for losing? They need a way to get people back on line and working when they are available to do so.
Way Southern AZ..... (market)
I dropped to Gold and scheduling went away because of an old customer low rating. I called DD Support and they were somehow able to remove one of the complaints. I was back at Platinum after about a day and could schedule again. Look at which of your ratings is keeping you from Platinum and work on that.
@@ForeverWhereAfter It's not having 100 deliveries in the last month. I was out with a bad back. My version of their software at the time didn't let me know where I stood with the number of deliveries for any month rolling along (not that I could of delivered then). So they switched over to the new silver, gold, platinum rating system in the mean time. So I can't get to the schedule having any openings even after 3pm comes everyday. I can't get back to work at all with them, having literally froze me out of getting back on the schedule. All my stats are platinum except the 100 deliveries per month. Now I can't fairly schedule for any attempt. Locked on the outside looking in at the weeks of no schedule available. What a strange way to do business and worst practices at best. I am in the process of getting on other apps be sure, but forced out by their lack of thought of their drivers in good standing otherwise. At gold level I can't go to work now that I can? Thank you for the response and comment.
They've had that in charlotte for over a year. I turn off cash delivery and shop and pay depends on day. Now they need to get rid of id orders.
Announced some time ago yes, finally got it here in Pittsburgh been wanting to filter out Shop & Delivery. Curious how that's going to go cherry picking only other types
@@YourDriverMike I've had it in the chicago area for almost 2 years now and honestly its the best thing since sliced bread. i'll do shop and delivers really early in the day 7am till around 9am ish, then i turn it off and only do food for lunch and im usually sitting around 100 too 200 by 1pm. and I cherry pick my rear off, my acceptance rate is 8% lol.
I was told by DD Support that the options take 24 hours to change in the App, that was for “Cash on Delivery” orders.
They're not going to get shopping deliver on my time, that's for sure. You will get however grocery store pickups that have been picked and drugstore pickups and the like.
Lol ‘just accept more’… send me acceptable offers, and I’ll accept them, thank yew
already have this for a while, u could ask no shop orders
No not here in Medford Oregon. Im platinum.
My driver Mike, thank you for the upcoming changes report that are coming to my doordash driver platform. In my small town area I can still retain top dasher - month long dash anytime -follow the rules. They haven't switched it here yet. I'm certain that will go away real soon. I'll give Doordash credit where credit is due. In an economy where inflation and fees rise on Doordash's side, the driver makes less and less, and less and less. The customers are disgusted because they see Doordash fees rise (including delivery fees), the delivery driver gets less and is begging for a $1 tip. The customer doesn't understand that us drivers are begging for tip money. I'm about to give up on one dollar tips for a Doordash customer screen wanting fees for this administrative fee and a delivery fee. I deliver food. Thanks for the $1 . I think I need to pause and think about my life.
What if they had by type of store?
I WISH, I absolutely HATE going to Aldi
Is gold and platinum wortth it? I have a very low acceptance rate because i know a way to go online whenever i want. Even in grey zones and without platinum =)
Then no, its not worth it. You still get good offers otherwise and having run both with and without - having it just makes your offers a bit better, but not worth taking the money loosing ones you need to get / keep that level. Scheduling is really the big thing and if you have a way around that do not bother. The main labeled high value items I get, once or twice a 6 hour shift, I kid you not is a $4 offer cause delivery is so short (so labled as "High Value"), which if there's a delay on pickup is not worth it.
I have it Harrisburg Pennsylvania
I don’t have it yet. Olympia, Washington
After shop and delivering on Spark, Doordashing that type of offer is painful.
Your in Pittsburgh and I'm in The Poconos. I don't have it on my Dash and we are both in PA. Hmmm
I have a thing now to where i can set my maximum delivery range
I don't have it in Minneapolis.
Nope for me here in CA Central Coast
I’m calling out all doordash drivers to stop for two days until they make the trips more fair for the drivers!
Unrelated comment, I have a verified pizza delivery bag in my profile yet when I accept a lot of pizza orders it always wants me to snap a photo of the bag. Kind of annoying
They do that cause they want to verify that you’re actively using it.
@@robertclevenger3402 Makes sense! Though I didn't spend money on it to not use it haha
You’re crazy if you toggle off alcohol orders. Some of my best orders have been alcohol orders. I get turning off shopping orders though.
Customers for shop and deliver love to updater order to get a refund. Shady ppl.
@@rehtuluv yea I don’t do shop and deliver either. But alcohol orders I definitely do. I’ve had orders where I’ve made over $100.
@@manbearpig637 I'm starting to shift in that direction. Tired of getting low ratings from shady customers when I do everything as described. Just yesterday, I had to substitute an item at Petsmart. I texted the customer, no response in 3mins so I called and she answered. I told her I provided a picture of the substitute and she said she wanted it. Then gives me a low rating on 100% fill rate order. SHADY. I woke up at 2am to a notification saying she "updated her order". Then my ratings went down.
Agreed
My market always gets everything last
I am in Kansas City and I have it for pizza deliveries it says
Don’t recommend any type of ebikes for Uber eats. I was deactivated for “unusual high speeds” I have the storm 2 with whizz
I wish we could turn off restaurant orders and only turn on Shop and Deliver...
Y’all make $21.25 an active hour?! In Warner Robins Georgia they start at $10-13 😢
I hate shop and deliver and pass on them all which hurts my acceptance rate
Not here in Philly. I am platinum
Thanks for sharing
That's all garbage... we need a filter to stop getting low ball offers BIG TIME! There's no way for me ever to get my AR up when all I get is $4.00 orders for 15 miles. I rather a filter than toggle off shop and pay or anything else!
👍
Lol I never activated the red card so I didnt get shop and deliver. I read enough lowes horror stories lol
I just want to opt out of the alcohol delivery I hate doing those
Don't mind the Shop & Deliver? I don't get many alcohol deliveries but the regulations are different here in PA vs when I was in CA
Toggle the switch to turn off
Why can't they put a opt out button for no tip deliveries 😂
I wanna toggle off anything below $2 a mile
Here in California, we had dash preferences, now they took it away
I’m in California and still have them
How does not getting taxed on our tips sound to you guys? If you want to stop being taxed on your tips then vote for Trump this year.
i think door dash is about to close their doors..
i’m feeling that this is a diversion. DoorDash is not doing too well and they’re trying to distract us with these stupid options knowing dang well they haven’t figured out how to to pay their drivers @mike i’m not understanding why we continue to entertain this BS I’m not getting any offers like I used to and to entertain this BS on the platform just makes me want to block you . Majority of your viewers are seasoned Dashers The question is why entertain this tell us the facts are not hypotheses nerve-racking.
This has always existed. lol
Just by hearing this guy talk, it makes me sleepy
