True as it says $13.00 and something once you decide to take the trip. Pick up the order at the restaurant then start the trip and drop off the order as once complete the trip as following the note orders or photo the order to leave note on where you left the order. Then once complete the order the trip was a $6.00 or something trip as you don't keep the $13.00 order as once shown. Then expect a tip as if you get a tip from the customer? As it's deceiving low ball orders as probably no tips at all on the UberEats app. Tell you it is a cold gig economy business on low ball orders of upsets 😡 as it is not fair as they sure won't reimburse you on bridge toll for going to Richmond to Vallejo for a $16.00 as I been declining trips and some I do take but I try not to to cross the bridge going to Vallejo. As I live in the Bay Area doing UberEats.
Hey bro I got a question for you. I’m in Seattle and how is it getting unemployment benefits where you’re at if your receiving it? It’s a lot of barriers they put in place in Seattle for you to get it and I know gig work is one of them. So I wanted to know how it works where your at before the new stimulus package goes through Congress. Thanks and keep up the great work. Your tips have helped me make an extra $25 a night.
customer perspective: I absolutely hate tipping before hand. up until I had too, I used postmates because they didn't share the tip amount and allowed me to tip for good service after. There is a rating system for a reason, and drivers should be allowed to rate poorly for a bad tip. showing you potential earnings defeats that system. It sucks to learn that when postmates switched to ubereats software, this is the reason I've had a hard time getting a driver. Unfortunately until uber eats changes this... I will be projecting 25% moving forward and subtracting from that tip, instead of tipping 15% and upping the tip when things go right. Don't blame the customer... blame your boss' software.
We need to hold Uber accountable too. Because they are fully aware of this and they themselves enjoy the exploitation of drivers eagerly taking orders with seemingly large tip rewards. It started with them.
If they paid you guys what you deserve, need, and are entitled to, this tip situation wouldn't be a problem. it's Uber's responsibility to pay a fair wage especially when you calculate expenses and see what your true profits are.
@@educationalexcellence-s1j I love walking into a restaurant seeing a pick up section full of no tip orders... 😂🤣😂 I only do short deliveries with tips.
As a customer, it's partially Uber's fault. When I place the order, I enter my tip on the final screen before submitting. Let's say it's $5. Then AFTER the delivery, I always get a screen asking "Add a 18% tip for Bob?" --- this makes it seem like they're asking if I want to add to my initial tip -- and that answer is no -- so I have to unselect the 18% tip they pre-select (ex. $8) and put it to $0 -- not realizing the few times I've done this, that it changes the total tip to $0. It's a very dumb misleading screen which Uber would probably argue they're trying to get more tips for their drivers, but it's making it worse.
Did two deliveries, was estimated $17.46 and ended up with $6.60. As far as I know I did nothing wrong and was definitely disappointed with how little I made.
First tip bate just happened to me. $8.33 expected tip for 3.7 miles. Got the food immediately from the store and got to the house within 13 minutes. Dude was standing in the driveway with both hands in his pants and I handed him the order and said have a good one. Looked back at this order and he completely removed the tip and I’m down to $2.52. I got his address saved and I will be calling Uber tomorrow to see what I can do. I hope I get another one of his orders bc I will straight up take an hour out of my day to make that man wait
Feel like if they’re going to allow you to retract tip there should be a survey as to why perhaps even requesting pictures, so if it is something we did wrong at least we can be mindful as service providers to improve ourselves.
I know this comment is a year old but I think it's a bad idea it would just encourage people to lie and lower driver ratings just to justify their tip baiting
@@D_-zj4nz You take pictures of the outside of a sealed bag there is nothing stopping the customer from lying and saying the food inside was damaged during the delivery
@user-bg3iq3iu9j What is taking a picture of an order going to do? If something is wrong with the food, that's not necessarily the driver's fault. If the driver was rude or refused to bring your food to the door, left it outside, ect how are you going to prove that?I don't agree with the bait and tip but people have legitimate reasons of not tipping or tipping low.
Happened to me tonight: the customer tip baits to secure their delivery during times when drivers are absent or time to delivery is very high. Then after they receive the food, they reduce the tip substantially. I was quoted $9.63 for a McDonald’s order 4 miles away, and they reduced the tip by $3 to $6.93. A very scum bag maneuver.
Wow you can do a 4 mile delivery that's crazy!.. uber eats here in Australia won't allow the app to show you big chain fast food unless your delivery location is 2km(1.2miles) or less.
@@jasonking7736 we can do 15 mile deliveries and especially for expensive items too: Apple for example. Paying peanuts to drive that far and into a bad area in the Bronx.
This happened to me last night. I reported them. I didn't go to customer support, I reported a problem with the delivery and told them that it was tip baiting and asked them to note it on their account. I did absolutely nothing wrong and my fare went from $11 ($8 tip) down to $3 (no tip). Some people really suck!
You might not have thought you did something wrong but it is possible you did. Instead of handing my food to me my driver left it outside on the dirty ground. He didn't even knock or text me. I give specific directions but had Uber drivers disregard them and their GPS and try to get me to meet them in the dark at a neighboring apartment complex.
The sad thing is, this is happening to good honest drivers who has done nothing wrong. Its just the "bad" customers and Uber needs to find a way to weed them out by allowing drivers to flag such instances. Too many and there you have your tip baiter.
@@real_Pinoy Never said there wasn't "bad" drivers. The point is, YOU as a customer can take action by reporting bad drivers to Uber, omitting your tips, or poorly rating a driver. Me as a driver have absolutely no recourse towards bad customers, including NOT being able to flag you as to choose or not choose to deliver to you again.
@@souleternal7 I had a Driver throw my food against the Porch also I tipped $5 dollars even I reported to Uber they gave me a discount of half off then said We understand that this can be disappointing News and want to let you know that we have processes in place to review this type of feedback
@@real_Pinoy So the driver threw your food for no reason at all, not that it's ever ok? Just seems odd that a driver would do that. In this case, you were able to report the driver. You could have also took back your tip, why did you still tip after that?
@@souleternal7 I report every tip baiting to uber support, even if I don't get paid after calling them, I feel it's our duty to report it so they can at least put a note and if a single customer receive many driver complaint then they will block them from the app.
I’ve had it happen a few times on UE. It’s disgusting. If We agreed to do a job for a certain price and the customer with edits the tip For no apparent reason, Uber eats should ban them and or cover the tip amount shorted. Somehow I feel like there’s a legal issue in this on Uber’s part
I agree, This happened atleast 6 to me yesterday, Us as drivers we are getting scammed by these customers, Now I put my Doordash customers first because I never have this issue with Doordash.
I'm a walker who carries a note pad and write every name I deliver too with address. If I get baited those names get transferred to a 💩 list. I'll know not to go back or accept then wait awhile then cancel but that's only if I'm feeling extra salty. If your like me and service mostly the same areas it's easy to weed them out.
This has been happening to me lately. It appears that my total week earnings are (example ) $278 available then goes down to $261 in my wallet!!! As a matter of fact I started my day accepting a $13.88 trip with expected tip and when I was done with the trip it only paid me $8.23 in total. I wasn't sure why but thanks to your video I understand why it happens. I wish we could be able to rate the customers as well, since many are lousy, cheap and demanding with a selfish mindset!😏
@seekingtruth1984 so true most McDonald's, burger King, Popeyes customers suck, they will tip bait you all day, not to mention when you get to the restaurant your waiting 5 to 10 mins easily.
It’s 100% happens all the time and it’s getting worse. In the past 2 weeks I’ve been tip baited 5 times. The issue is they will tip you but they can lower it to as little as 50 cents. Uber is completely aware of this issue as a matter of fact they were the ones that told me it was a thing when I a 19 dollar order reduced to 12.
Almost the same, an $8 tip, pulled into the most expensive house I had ever been to, dropped off the food, rang the doorbell, found out it was an intercom, talked to the customer and left. Tip was changed to $36. Very happy
Had a smaller version of that this weekend, $10+ order was $20+ after delivery because of a $20 tip on DD. DD does that, if it's an exceptionally high tip they'll only show a portion of it. Nice job!
@@PS-js9xw $8 is the max the app will show you for a tip prior to the delivery. They may have changed it afterwards but it is more likely that they tipped you the $36 beforehand and Uber only showed you the $8. (Unless your service was phenomenal :) ). I use this knowledge to try to determine whether a certain delivery will have a large tip or not. For example if the trip is short I figure Uber will pay $2.50, but if the expected pay is $10.50 then I know there is a good chance the tip will be some amount over $8 even though the customer could also have tipped exactly $8. Another reason for the amount going up could also be extended waits at the restaurant.
I just came across a delivery on Uber Eats app for a $3 delivery, meaning no tip. It popped up on my screen 3 times and no one was taking it. Suddenly it came back a forth time but the amount went up to $9. Someone grabbed it right away but I have a feeling the tip will be reversed later on. Just to point out to be careful with orders where customers don’t want to tip initially but then suddenly throws in a big tip.
Should make them email for a tip change, would make the process longer, and stop them from tipping, I wonder if they'll change it. Our power is not accepting rides with no tips at insane distances, Uber is trying to make us do that, but not protect our tips.
Why should you be tipped at all because the tip is a bonus? I hate tipping because why is it my responsibility to pay you with another company hired you? What I mean is you're their employee you don't like what they're paying you for the base job you can complain to them. A Target worker doesn't get to go up the customers and ask them for extra money to help make ends meet because they're not paying enough at their job so why is it fair that you should be able to and why should it be our responsibility to pay you when you were fully took the job that pays that amount of money
@@CrazyHomelessWeirdoUberEats does not "hire" us. This is what I think people get wrong all the time. You are paying for a service to have an independent contractor take your order to your home. If you want us to think your job offer is worth it. Tip appropriately. If you don't want to tip you don't have too. Likewise we have the freedom to decline your offer.
@@Dexion845 that is hiring under a different name you agree to work for what Uber eats pays you. Your contract through them it's not my responsibility to make for their lackluster payment if you don't like their payment then yell at them it is not my responsibility to pay for your lousy wage I didn't contact you they did you talk to them about the money you think you should be paid. People like you are the reason people show a really awesome tip up front and then take it away after the order is done. There you self righteous jerk now you get nothing
This happened to me for the first time tonight. I have a 100% satisfaction rating and 742 deliveries. I kept replaying in my head if I did something wrong but I didn’t. I even made it to their apartment before the expected time. They lowered the tip to 1 dollar. 😡🤬
This has been happening to me ALL NIGHT! I am going to fight this. I don’t accept certain orders and it seems like people are starting to tip so we can pick up the order to only retract it after it’s delivered
@@jen_305 I agree! I honestly had to find a steady job because uber eats was not working for me anymore. Before, i use to make enough money to survive but now, I bearly made ends meat. I felt i was on my way to homelessness.
My orders always get messed up, so when I get a good driver. I tip them A LOT.. an extra $5 on top of 20% My dad raised me to never order delivery unless you tip at least $4 for their time, no matter what.
That sounds good- the biggest flaw in doordashes system is that they remove any incentive for the driver to give good service. I mean- can you imagine if a waiter in a resturaunt refused to take a families order if they didnt place a cash tip on the table before he even got there? That waiter would be sent home.....
@@thecolorblack4778 customers are paying for what they are getting..... the fact that the dasher is using their own gas and depreciating their own vehicle doesnt enhance the value of what the customer is receiving
@@abprepboy33 but the waiter only has to walk over to the table and not use 20 miles worth of gas to serve you, and they're an employee of the restaurant, so it's their job. Drivers are independent contractors, they have the option to accept or decline OFFERS, it only becomes their job if they accept the offer 🤯🤯🤯 I guess you have a really difficult time telling the difference between apples and oranges
I took the time to run back to the restaurant to get the rest of their order because they had forgotten to put it in the back. My customer told me I didn’t need to do it but I felt bad and did it anyway. I only got tipped $2 for the order…idk if that should be the last time I have a heart or not
I would treat ubereats as postmates- you don’t know the payout period so just avoid the long distance drives above five miles and avoid most fast food places. Cherry pick that way
I've been doing this for 4 days and I've already come to the conclusion to avoid most fast food, and I don't take rides that don't at least equal to 2 dollars per mile
I refuse to take orders from a customer I know by name. Shes tip bates three times now. I no longer take her orders. If I accept a pick up for her I drop it instantly. And there doesn't seem to be a way to rate the people you deliver too or make a complaint about tip baiting. I complained about her after the 3rd time it happened to customer service but that went nowhere
Tip baiting is definitely a problem. This is unacceptable and Ubereats should not allow customers the option to do this. If anything, a customer should only be allowed to edit their tip if they’re trying to add more money to the tip. The fact that Uber allows customers to remove their tip completely is very distasteful behavior from the company. Hopefully they will address this problem soon and fix the tipping option to show their support for their drivers.
Started watching this video because I had a $10 tip removed. After hearing this guy say his tip eventually showed up I went and checked my app. The tip got updated to $27 :)
Livin in chicago this has been happening alot and honestly its been turnin me off to wantin to drive for ubereats.. they need to change it to where if u put tip amount its finalized as soon as u put the order in like doordash n grubhub.. idk if ima keep doin ubereats because gas is almost $4 and i hate ppl bait me n make me drive 12miles for $8 when i was supposed to get $13 after tips
When customers do this to me the 1st time,or better yet MORE THAN ONCE,they immediately go on Mt "did not tip" memory list so when they pop up,they get CANCELED, let them take advantage of someone else,I don't work for free and that's ALL THE WAY AROUND!!!! I always tip delivery people. Not tipping EVER is tacky and classless
Uber steals drivers tips too. I had a passenger who told me that he would tip me 20 bucks and he literally did it in front of my eyes, I saw it and was so happy. But you guessed it, when I finished the ride I checked my earnings for the ride, Uber gave me $5 and kept $15. I couldn't believe it so I decided to check earnings the next day, maybe they'd correct it. But still it stayed the same. If you don't get tips, it's a good guess Uber is skimming your tips. The guy tipped me because he had a friend in my car that was drunk and disturbing me, asking for water, then I had to stop the car because she had vertigo and needed to vomit, she took my gallon of water and I had to get out the car to get my cleaning container to hand it to her just in case she vomited in my car. So at the end, the rider decided to show me the tipping process on his app. I saw the whole thing, but uber stole my tip.
This is why i always tip the Uber Driver with cold hard cash of rounding of 10% tip rather then thought an app so the uber company would not steal your rightful earn of 10% tip.
tonight had a order show up for $14 and some change. delivered it no problems customer thanked me said have a good night and 20 minutes after i called support cuz all i was payed was $3 well the customer removed the tip entirely and was told just call pay in the morning around 8am eastern. and sorry but this is bs made me seriously wanna go back and beat on their door and ask why they would do that. i literally lost money in gas / maintenance and my time. it cost me more to do that than its worth.
I've only been baited one time, tip of $8 turned into $0.01 after the tip window expired on Uber Eats. The tip window as I like to call it, makes your time on Uber Eats a bit nerve-wracking. But for me in my local market people are typically honest and quite generous with their tips.
When I reviewed my rides the next day, and someone tip me a penny ¢01. That angered me more that being tip-bated. I try to be a good driver. I take the advice I get on this channel seriously. This happened months ago and I'm still angry about it.
It’s happened to me. I move on. At the end of the day I call support. Be patient and courteous. Then all for a manager. I’ve been successful all 3 times I have been top baited in getting my money back. They even once gave me a $20 payment when I was only owed 8. Uber eats will pay you if you are persistent and stand your ground. Zach drives fast have an excellent tutorial on what to do. Look it up folks. Get paid what you’re promised.
Important to note that they have an hour FROM THE MOMENT you swipe the “Delivery Complete” tab (if it’s a Hand to Customer order) or click “Delivered” after taking the photo for the Contactless Delivery orders. I have been timing it and it’s been on like clockwork. I would say from personal experience, I’ve only been tip baited 3 times since I started delivering out in Boise, and I keep a mental note of those customers. I deliver to many of the same people, and I remember the crossroads and restaurant ordered. Is it always accurate? No. This is much easier to do on DoorDash (which there is no risk of tip baiting, but I’ll keep track of the pin in cases of unruly/rude customers - lots you can do). However, I haven’t delivered to any of those 3 offenders after the fact and the other 99.9% of customers have been awesome. I find more often that I receive more than what was originally quoted - not sure if this is due to the “Trip Supplement” (you see this a lot with the “Order and Pay” orders when you sit at the restaurant for 20-30+ mins), but I’m sure there have been a lot that just want to show their appreciation. Just my two cents. Happy driving, all!
It’s so funny to me because I do it on a bicycle, so I only do rides 1.5km or less from my house which means that whenever I get tip baited, I know exactly where they live. And I come up with creative ideas of how to hurt them.
It happens all the time. I only drive for uber eats. I wish that they were NOT including the tip so I would know the minimum amount I will receive for that specific delivery.
UE changed the tip policy since they bought Postmates. Now UE has a cap on tipping by including it in the order either if the pay would be $3 (tip included) or $15+ . Before the emerge you were able to make a lot more on tips than in the present.
I was tip baited for going 10miles and lost my gas and time I only went from a to B it was late night and probably no driver was accepting his low pay order
I just took a delivery for about an estimated $12.78, I delivered in 10 minutes and 44 seconds. A couple hours later the pay was the minimum $4.78. Awesome.
I actually message Uber and request that they block me from delivering to that person ever again. I have only had one person who tip bait me/ removed the tip. "You can do something bad to me one time, but you will not have the pleasure to do it again"
I received an order from McDonald's, was estimating $10 for the delivery. I checked the order as I always do before embarking. It was for 1 sundae. I cancelled the order, that was most likely a tip bait.
I do Uber Eats...... Today I did 14 deliveries and got 10 tippers. FOUR of them edited the tip down to $0. Nothing on my end was poor service. SUCKS !!!!
never knew this was a thing, you would think that uber eats would make the person go through a process and explain why its being subtracted then uber themselves make the decision, that's like going to a restaurant , leaving the tip, then hour later, go back to the restaurant and demanding it back with no reasoning
Yes!!! It’s happened to me all week! And many have been significant too where I’ve only earned like 2.25 for some deliveries that were 10 plus miles away. Called and Uber confirmed its true and there’s nothing they can do!! Smh! I’ve never had this happen on door dash
Start keeping track of names and addresses. When you see them pop up again send them a message that they stiffed you on your tip last time and that you're denying their service. They won't do it again.
@@AnaTropolis you dont "access" it really. I kept a log book of the name and address and marked the ones I blacklisted. The address you dont get until you deliver but the name pops up as soon as you accept the order.
@@jerometruitt2731 just be careful what you say in the chat bc you could easily get in further trouble with Uber, customer is always right to them and they keep chat logs for complaint reasons. The best way to go is don’t pick up the food (depending on your morals) and then cancel. No questions asked, no bad rating. And trust they WILL do it again, even in the off chance they get the same driver and their driver cancels. They just get a new driver.
Hi Mike, I'm a full time uber eats driver and I'm taking it seriously, I do work hard to do it in the best way that I can, since the expected tip feature started with uber eats here in my market in sept, I got as you said tip baiting 3 times, and it was clear tip bating, I did contact uber eats support and as you have said they didnot do anything about it, so I just kept moving on, because sometimes I still get my tip increased , and I think the experience will help us as drivers sometimes to figure out before accepting any requests if there is a possibility to get tip baiting based on the amount of payout, what time of the day and mostly the area where you dropping it off the order, if the area is not a good tipping area and I receive a request with high payout with the tip thats a red flag and I think twice before I accept it.
But on ubereats, no matter what, I always wait 1hr for tips to come in, they never come in early. Order will say 7.87$ but once I complete the order, it'll always say 2.50$. Then about an hour later, the tip comes in.
Sinister Santos that is because Uber Eats gives the customer up to one hour after delivery is done to change the amount, so the system waits that one hour to process the tip.
I appreciate the update, yes since I rarely drive on UE I really thought this was a tip bait but looks like tips just settle like on PM. Still going for DD here in San Diego though!
@@YourDriverMike UE is kinda weird with earnings in particular, seems to be pretty laggy when stuff shows up, and it's even more strange on stacks. They seem to count them as one order in the earnings
I drove a uber eats fancy steakhouse order tonight.. changed their tip to $0!! They were 2 miles from restaurant..so why didn't they pickup themselves!! I took 17 min to pickup and drop. Order promised $11.74 then paid $3.41.
They shouldn't be able to change the tip after the delivery. Name me one other tipping situation where you can get back your tip? Once again you have Gig employers interfering in the relationship between the driver and the customs. Know you're worth people.
I’ve changed my tip before but it was because I pre-tipped but the driver was very rude to me because they didn’t read my extremely detailed apartment instructions and threatened to cancel because I couldn’t come find him (I was in a meeting and I work from home- not losing my job to go get a sandwich that I requested to be delivered, sorry). He finally delivered. I took my tip back so quick, worst service ever. I understand some people probably do tip bait but also Uber should keep that feature to encourage good customer service. I’ve always worked customer service but even before hand I had more manners than some drivers.
@@AnaTropolis Perhaps you're not understanding what I'm saying. As opposed to what the OP said, name me one other service that makes you tip before the service is provided? If I put down a 30% tip, and the driver shows up an hour and 15 minutes late and my food is cold. Should I still give them that 30% tip? No, I'm going to change it.
Just happened to me today and I am 100% sure it was tip baiting, same person did it to me twice that I remember in less than a month. I remember like 3 or 4 weeks ago getting mad like what did I do wrong...so she took the tip back. On top of that she lives in 1 of the worst apartments to do delivery in my area (probably the reason I remember her). Next time I see that name and that address I'm instantly canceling the order!
Just happened to me tonight, not the first time but this was a TRUE tip bait. Followed all their stupid instructions, also wore a mask. She looked me in the eye and smiled and then later took away the tip. I remember where it is too so I really want to egg her house. Total disrespect.
But wait, I am consumer/user. And I find this video just searching to see if the driver sees the tip before.... I'm shocked. Cause usually, I tip really well, specially when I order lots of food (heavy). But sometimes, I order heavy stuff, and I feel pity for the guy in the bike, and I add 10 dolars. However, if I see he's comming in a car, I reduce that to 3, cause for him is gonna be easier. I guess what I'm going to do now is to tip only after the service, not when ordering....
no its not normal an also youre wrong, tips can sometime come even minutes after the delivery depending on what the customer does, but besides thats, it doesnt always take an hour because sometimes customers get to it quicker.
I had a $21 order on Uber Eats. I delivered on time and only got $6. I was expecting the tip to show up an hour later and it never happened. Called support and was told the customer removed the tip and basically was told that they can do that. So i know i was tip baited. Most times the tip shows up and i have had a few customers even go in and give me a higher tip. This was my first time that someone just took the whole thing away. 😮😢
I have only had this happen once, usually the "as promised tip" within an hour or so later after the delivery occurs. In fact, I have had several occasions were the tip amount is actually greater than promised, you just have get on with it, and not sweat the tip amount if your not seeing it within the first hour.
Thanks Vincent, seemed odd as I normally don't do UE but I appreciate the updates from everyone. Still sticking with DD here b/c surprisingly no Boost pay here in San Diego!
@@BM-wc6bt just a heads up the way the Uber offers work they only show you up to an $8 maximum tip, generally if it tells you they tipped more after they actually didn't, it's just that Uber hid the full tip from you originally and then lied to you about it. Still is definitely nice to get those larger tip amounts but don't believe what Uber is telling you.
@@jgerrard565671 honestly that wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest. Thankfully I’m now officially done with Uber and DoorDash so I don’t have to worry about all that anymore.
It happens to me 3 to 4 times a week in average! There are certain customers who by now I am getting to know them and one particular customer acted that he was very happy and satisfied yet after delivering and talking to him he actually reduced it to zero! Definitely they’re doing it to get a faster service, and I have complained to Uber Eats numerous time about this issue.
I got a 35 dollar order 1hr and a half To shop and deliver Ended up with only 15$ no tip Customer was contacting me and being nice Then screwed me over .....would've bought some lipstick If I knew I was gonna get fucked 💄
For me the customer would say “ you won’t get the tip if everything isn’t there” even when I check to make sure everything is there they still don’t include the tip..
I give DoorDash higher priority simply because of their time monitoring. Don’t wanna get banned even though sometimes their expected pickup and delivery times are extremely tight.
I went straight to restaurant and straight to customer like I always do. I did reach out to the support and they said there is nothing they can do. This has happened to me 4 times in the past week.
I even let them know that I have ordered their food and let them know how long the rest said it was going to take. I have Been getting frustrated by this and went back to door dashing more and using Roadie.
Tip baited a couple days ago. Never knew this was a thing. Lugged 10 gallons of bottled water to a customer's door while wearing a friendly smile despite the heavy load and how much it sucked to deliver it all. Estimated tip: $7. Adjusted tip: $0
I’m ALWAYS tip baited I end the order and am like *wth it said $15 and then I only $6 for the order BUT *SOMETIMES I see the tip com later in the day and it goes back to the amount or more that is why I always carry my hot bag and Communicate! It helps and your customer notices.
Someone sent a screenshot of when a customer actually lowers the tip post-delivery. So unless the post delivery screen says they've lowered the tip you should be okay and should see that tip come in later. Of course no guarantees though
@@YourDriverMike did you at already make a video on deactivation on DD because earlier today a customer reported to DD that I allegedly “did not” deliver their food when I did DD sent me a appeal email which I of course sent back immediately but I’m disturbed that someone would lie like that!
I actually had this happen to me today on my first Uber eats run. It said $12.50. After I delivered it, it went to $4.50. I was pissed.. and then two hours later, it went to $13.75. Very confusing 🤦♀️
Never accept an offer where you'd be unhappy with the quoted amount, and you'll never be disappointed :) Every Decline raises the Doordash pay for the next person it's offered to. If we ALL decline until the price is right, we all win. Sadly, I encounter far too many Dashers that undervalue themselves and their time and say things like "if it's $3, hey, that's $3 I wouldn't have made otherwise!" which is... wrong on every level lol
I was definitely tip baited last night and it was a stacked order so I was supposed to make $20. I only ended up making $12 because one customer removed the tip completely. And I know for a fact I did not make any mistakes. It’s really a bummer and I wish they would at least give us a reasoning why the tip was reduced instead of just reducing it and calling it a day. I know there’s nothing I can do about it and there are just scummy people out there but they really should have a better system so this doesn’t happen. Not to mention if you can’t afford to tip, you can’t afford to eat out, period.
All the complaining in the world won't change anything. They know this. I can't risk driving so far again like that. Apply for work or take the risk. I say this because it happened to me today and your comment is a year old.
If you get tip baited, immediately call support. Ask if the customer can get blacklisted from your route so you don’t have to deliver to them again. Also ask if they can put notes on that customers account so if another driver complains about getting tip baited, that customer already has a record of doing it which subjects to them getting banned from the system.
When it comes to this issues they literally transfer you like 20 times to the “payment department” but no one actually helps you. “Sorry ma’am you were routed to the wrong department but let me transfer you”. It’s like they do it on purpose cause they know it’s shady. Ultimately they don’t care about us! They are absolutely no help
Yes, it’s happening- they do it intentionally to get their far away order fast then they drop the tip with no excuse or reason - happens to me twice already-
It happened three times to me. Twice I got the food and made a beeline for the customers. Once I should have canceled the order because the wait time was excessive at the restaurant. In any case I kept the names and street name of the few times I've been tipped baited they're on my list. Contacted support they said if you see the names again just cancel the order. Thankfully I have received more than estimated tip amount in many cases.
I am an Ubereats driver and a Ubereats customer. I am disgusted of how these customers bait us. Customers literally have no idea what we have to go through for them. They are so annoying when they say i’ll tip u more if you bring me something or anything like that and they end up not tipping anything.
Dude, you are over thinking why somebody tip baits or are just scared to say it. They tip bait because they are shady people who never tipped before so they never got thier food because nobody will accept thier order, so they learned of tip baiting and now do it so they can still get thier food without having to tip.
Or they are just cheap fucks that want to get their hot meals cheap, so they put out a nice big tip as a gimme, then once they get their food they reduce it to a $1.00 tip or whatever. This happens multiple times a week in the area Im in.
Your right my man this happens to me today on a order that I had to take it was over 10 miles that I had to bring this delivery to this person I’m figuring that they knew that nobody would drive that far withought them receiving a tip it suks that people are this way
Same thing happened to me! Thought I was ripped off at first. I delivered an order a little outside the city in the county and was supposed to pay $10 and then I saw I only got $4 and was feeling pretty bummed about it (especially since it was my first trip and it was a decent amount of miles - not worth $4). But then about an hour later I received a notification stating a $6 tip. My thinking is since a customer can edit the tip up to an hour after delivery Uber Eats does not send the tip until an hour after delivery to ensure that is how much you're getting.
And this is exactly why I don’t deliver to city’s or ghettos, not just because you might get robed physically, but through the app as well. People can also say they never got their food and get u fired. People are awful. I’ve delivered over 1000 deliveries in middle class quiet towns where people are great and that has never happened once.
I may have had my first UE tipbait. I would need to check the app for the exact numbers, but as a multi-apper this was an order where I solely went from point A to B. The customer still left a $5 tip, but the trips was reduced from $16 to $9. I decided to not let it get me down and continued onto a profitable shift
Yeah right. You shouldn't be delivering people's food and then when you find out about the hidden cameras you'll be giving them hundreds of dollars of tips in Court and jail for their tires, pls no more Uber job. There's actually legitimate reasons for changing somebody's tip. Tips are supposed to be for good service and good attitude that's how it is around the world. So if you have bad service, you take forever, drive around all over the place , sit parked in your car for a half an hour or take some of the food and have a bad attitude, those are reasons why somebody should change a remove their tip . Why should you reward somebody for doing a crappy job?
Just happened to me today with a $3 tip. Can we report it the Uber Eats Customer Service? I’m sure that wasn’t the first time that bleep did that. To top it I had to go up 5 flights of starts with no elevator. Next time I’m going to snap shot the address of every delivery so if I see there name again I’ll cancel the order. This is unacceptable, and unfair to the hard working drivers.
I got tipbaited tonight! Luckily the delivery prior gave me an awesome tip that made up for loss. Good practice is to take snapshots of your trip’s name and address and that way you know to avoid them in the future. If you get a nice delivery amount, check what they’re actually ordering. If they order one or two small things then consider it a red flag and cancel. Also, try to keep of your deliveries reasonably short in travel time/distance as possible so if you do get tipbaited, it won’t hurt you on gas and travel time.
How do I set my app to show the map in the background. Every time I get an order it blurs the background that I don’t see where the map is directing until I accept the order?
There's a jail about 10 minutes from me down a long bumpy rocky road. The correction officers always order food with a big tip then remove the tip when you deliver. They do this because they know nobody wants to drive out there so they tip bait hard
I have issues with a lot of issues with ubereats,doordash and skip the dishes. It's that fact that they never knock at all, and that infuriates me, so once i've known that they do not knock, i give the driver a 1 star rating, and take back my uber tip for not knocking. No courtesy knock nothing.
@@thedeadguy you need to let them know to knock on the delivery instructions otherwise people don't like someone knocking unless asked to because there might be a baby sleeping ect .
@@thedeadguy The norm now is asking for the driver NOT to knock or ring bell, the notification comes from the app real time to let them know, just like knocking the door. So, if you do have a particular preference, just let the driver know so we don't have to guess if the knock will make the customer upset or appreciative. You can always rate your driver on following orders, rather than being a correct mind reader and then it's win-win for everyone;)
Mike, I had a door dash today for 32.25. For ten miles. I took it and once upon pick up it changed to 4.25. Door dash support hasn’t done anything. What can I do . This dash was from a company that gets food to people in need . It wasn’t from a food place . Any thoughts ?
It is a real thing!!!! And Uber Eats also CHANGED the end location too! I declined two orders from a particular town and then they changed the end location to be in the town I didn’t want to go to. Ended up delivering to them anyway. But then they removed the tip at the end. Very upsetting because it ended up being 4.63 for a 24 mins drive and over 9 miles! I’m annoyed because that was the reason I didn’t want to go to that town. Some people DONT TIP. Very upset
I was just tip bated last night and I've only been driving for 2 weeks. It was a super simple delivery of some cookies in a paper bag and I got it delivered in 23 minutes. Nothing was wrong with the order but I noticed later that the customer retracted their tip amount. The order was for $9.33 and I was only paid $5:33 with a zero tip. I feel like I go a little above and beyond with my deliveries by communicating with the customer and this order was perfect in every way. There's dishonest people in this world and this person stole money from me essentially. I think it's important for drivers to call support and have it documented on the offenders account. I just got off the phone with support and they said they do notate the customers account and they can be dealt with if they show a history of this theft.
@@longdongbongchong ...says the mind of a criminal. If your job agrees to pay you a certain amount and then later they actually pay you less, that's called deception on the level of fraud. It's not entitled to expect an amount of money that was agreed upon for performing your work. It's called compensation for services rendered. Boy you sure are lost.
@@shane5385 huh? I think you got me confused. I'm the delivery driver, not the thief that can't afford to use the UE service and then steals from the hard working driver.
The highest tip ive gotten was 16 dollars and i was shocked because the lady who gave it to me was so rude to me, i was expecting for her to take the 3.43 dollars she was tipping at first but she ended up giving me more
@@TravelWithDevan that sucks! I wonder if some people think Uber pays is hourly and then their tips are just extra on top of the hourly... I realized lately people don’t want to tip as much
@@silvaindjarabian8156 not trying to promote my channel here. But I’ve recorded a few recent Uber requests on my channel and it’s very disappointing seeing it say “Includes Expected Tip”. Kind of makes me want to stop driving for the company.
@@katmoonspeaks Yes absolutely unless if they didn’t get the food however I did find a new method that way I don’t get tip baited. Once I give them the food I also mentioned about their tips and I say thank you that’s very kind of them that way they won’t tip bait because from my experience it happens a lot here in Los Angeles
I have had reduced tips come through for no known reason. Usually someone else that night tips pretty big so it balances out. I have seen this happen with my stacked orders a few times and what I have started doing is letting the customer know I am coming but I have an order to deliver before them. I don't know if they are informed on their end that their order is a stacked order so I just let them know. Most customers are appreciative and I have gotten bigger tips this way. Even when one tips lower than expected, the other one will tip higher so it balances out and I end up making more than the expected pay for that trip. Communicating with the customer is key and has helped me immensely!
B Diddy I like how you handle your stacked orders by letting them know they have an order to get delivered to before them. That is great customer service. Actually, I do not think any of these apps let the customers know when they have a person's order that is before them to be delivered. I really wish they would inform these customers so that they will know because they deserve to know. It's food - ...and if it gets to them barely warm...they deserve to know why. I have a question for you though...how do your "word" your message to them to let them know that they have someone in front of them? What is the wording that you use? (just curious.)
@@girlygirl1890 Good afternoon/evening, (insert customer name) I have picked up your food and I am headed your way. Your order is a stacked order and I have another order to drop off before yours. My apologies for any delays and I will do my best to get your food to you in a timely manner. Thank you for your patience! I have had customers message me right back saying thanks for letting them know. This led me to believe they weren't informed through the app. Hope this helps!!! Be safe out there and happy driving!!!!
@@ladetygr Ok B Diddy. Yep. You've done it. As a customer I would be very grateful to get this message,. Like I said, when it comes to stacked orders, your customer service is great. (and your message was very well thought out btw). ...shows you care about what the customer is thinking while they are waiting on you. (smile). Thank you very much for all your information - yes, it DOES help alot. And happy driving to you too!
it should be illegal for customers to be able to cancel tips. you agree to drive to them for a certain amount. ive had a few cancel tips for literally no reason. I went right to them, orders were correct... but like others have said, this is the normal screen for ue. it just sucks waiting that hour to see if they cancel or notm
I drive for Uber Eats, Doordash and Grubhub all at the same time every time I go out. UE is my #1 and this is just what happens. You complete a delivery and it only shows you the Uber payout until at least an hour later when they finally show you the customer tip if they didn't change it. A lot of times the total payout will end up being more than what was initially shown.
Yes this video is misleading bc he was tip baited it is just ue does. Now after an hour it stayed at $4 then yes ... he was tip baited. I was little disappointed with this video bc I thought he would know better.
Not misleading David as I state I thought I was tip baited but wasn't and I say that. Since I don't typically drive for UE I genuinely thought I was baited as posted in my story.
Thanks for the heads up Kyle, I asked in my story if this was normal so I appreciate the feedback from everyone. Still mainly sticking with DD here in SD
@@YourDriverMike I understand. In my market and other surrounding markets that I go to DD is totally flooded with drivers but Uber Eats and Grubhub still get lots of orders as well. I seem to be one of the very few that drive for UE and GH so I get lots of orders with very good dollars to mile pay. Thanks for all you teach on your channel! I've put a lot practice and have been pleased with the outcome 👍
I have had a 2 times where im pretty sure i was tip baited ( These happened during a late night situation.) Both were on Ubereats too. One of them i was supposed to get about 12 dollars and the customer took the full tip away. a week later still nothing I was pissed... but i moved on too. Another was a 9 dollar order and they took all but a dollar back on the tip. On these deliveries all i did was go from point a to point b I do my standard practice as i arrive at the restaurant i message the customer asking if they would like me to ask for any sauces place there food in my nice hot bags (I often get compliments on my hot bags) and drop them off with the customer. I think from now on though i will at least report these situations as well in hopes to at least help educate these people of the situation they put drivers in.
I took one order. No multi app on Uber eats. Order offer was $9.75. As soon as I completed the delivery, the payout to me was $2. That just happened 20 minutes ago. So livid about it
⚡️Check out this 'Accept Everything' challenge on Uber Eats next!: th-cam.com/video/XWJ2Q5-xKXg/w-d-xo.html
True as it says $13.00 and something once you decide to take the trip. Pick up the order at the restaurant then start the trip and drop off the order as once complete the trip as following the note orders or photo the order to leave note on where you left the order. Then once complete the order the trip was a $6.00 or something trip as you don't keep the $13.00 order as once shown. Then expect a tip as if you get a tip from the customer? As it's deceiving low ball orders as probably no tips at all on the UberEats app. Tell you it is a cold gig economy business on low ball orders of upsets 😡 as it is not fair as they sure won't reimburse you on bridge toll for going to Richmond to Vallejo for a $16.00 as I been declining trips and some I do take but I try not to to cross the bridge going to Vallejo. As I live in the Bay Area doing UberEats.
Hey bro I got a question for you. I’m in Seattle and how is it getting unemployment benefits where you’re at if your receiving it? It’s a lot of barriers they put in place in Seattle for you to get it and I know gig work is one of them. So I wanted to know how it works where your at before the new stimulus package goes through Congress. Thanks and keep up the great work. Your tips have helped me make an extra $25 a night.
customer perspective: I absolutely hate tipping before hand. up until I had too, I used postmates because they didn't share the tip amount and allowed me to tip for good service after. There is a rating system for a reason, and drivers should be allowed to rate poorly for a bad tip. showing you potential earnings defeats that system. It sucks to learn that when postmates switched to ubereats software, this is the reason I've had a hard time getting a driver. Unfortunately until uber eats changes this... I will be projecting 25% moving forward and subtracting from that tip, instead of tipping 15% and upping the tip when things go right. Don't blame the customer... blame your boss' software.
UE tipping system is one of the worst implementation in the history. Who ever came up with this idea should be in prison or hell period.
Dude tip baiting is messed up. Forget all your excuses and keep it a buck
We need to hold Uber accountable too. Because they are fully aware of this and they themselves enjoy the exploitation of drivers eagerly taking orders with seemingly large tip rewards. It started with them.
Yeah I love tip baiting
If they paid you guys what you deserve, need, and are entitled to, this tip situation wouldn't be a problem. it's Uber's responsibility to pay a fair wage especially when you calculate expenses and see what your true profits are.
@@educationalexcellence-s1j I love walking into a restaurant seeing a pick up section full of no tip orders... 😂🤣😂 I only do short deliveries with tips.
@@ILoveYou-sg5bi thats where I come in and take em!! I love it when food is free too! 😂😂🤣🤣
As a customer, it's partially Uber's fault. When I place the order, I enter my tip on the final screen before submitting. Let's say it's $5. Then AFTER the delivery, I always get a screen asking "Add a 18% tip for Bob?" --- this makes it seem like they're asking if I want to add to my initial tip -- and that answer is no -- so I have to unselect the 18% tip they pre-select (ex. $8) and put it to $0 -- not realizing the few times I've done this, that it changes the total tip to $0. It's a very dumb misleading screen which Uber would probably argue they're trying to get more tips for their drivers, but it's making it worse.
Did two deliveries, was estimated $17.46 and ended up with $6.60. As far as I know I did nothing wrong and was definitely disappointed with how little I made.
Happened to me today
The support person said to contact ubereats each time this happens and speak with a supervisor. They will give you $15
Wow great story, it should be a book. Maybe even a dramatic series on HBO.
@George Merrick 🤭
Happened to me today .. 3 times a day ..
First tip bate just happened to me. $8.33 expected tip for 3.7 miles. Got the food immediately from the store and got to the house within 13 minutes. Dude was standing in the driveway with both hands in his pants and I handed him the order and said have a good one. Looked back at this order and he completely removed the tip and I’m down to $2.52. I got his address saved and I will be calling Uber tomorrow to see what I can do. I hope I get another one of his orders bc I will straight up take an hour out of my day to make that man wait
Feel like if they’re going to allow you to retract tip there should be a survey as to why perhaps even requesting pictures, so if it is something we did wrong at least we can be mindful as service providers to improve ourselves.
I know this comment is a year old but I think it's a bad idea it would just encourage people to lie and lower driver ratings just to justify their tip baiting
Agreed 👍
@@crisruiz7646 well that's why we take pictures of the order and the person said they would need photo proof incase that happens
@@D_-zj4nz You take pictures of the outside of a sealed bag there is nothing stopping the customer from lying and saying the food inside was damaged during the delivery
@user-bg3iq3iu9j What is taking a picture of an order going to do? If something is wrong with the food, that's not necessarily the driver's fault. If the driver was rude or refused to bring your food to the door, left it outside, ect how are you going to prove that?I don't agree with the bait and tip but people have legitimate reasons of not tipping or tipping low.
Happened to me tonight: the customer tip baits to secure their delivery during times when drivers are absent or time to delivery is very high. Then after they receive the food, they reduce the tip substantially. I was quoted $9.63 for a McDonald’s order 4 miles away, and they reduced the tip by $3 to $6.93. A very scum bag maneuver.
Wow you can do a 4 mile delivery that's crazy!.. uber eats here in Australia won't allow the app to show you big chain fast food unless your delivery location is 2km(1.2miles) or less.
@@jasonking7736 we can do 15 mile deliveries and especially for expensive items too: Apple for example. Paying peanuts to drive that far and into a bad area in the Bronx.
@@YOUNGNGRATEFUL that's fucked up

This happened to me last night. I reported them. I didn't go to customer support, I reported a problem with the delivery and told them that it was tip baiting and asked them to note it on their account. I did absolutely nothing wrong and my fare went from $11 ($8 tip) down to $3 (no tip). Some people really suck!

@@crisruiz7646 savage 💀
You might not have thought you did something wrong but it is possible you did. Instead of handing my food to me my driver left it outside on the dirty ground. He didn't even knock or text me. I give specific directions but had Uber drivers disregard them and their GPS and try to get me to meet them in the dark at a neighboring apartment complex.
Me too, from 12 to $6.61😡 I did report them though
The sad thing is, this is happening to good honest drivers who has done nothing wrong. Its just the "bad" customers and Uber needs to find a way to weed them out by allowing drivers to flag such instances. Too many and there you have your tip baiter.
How about the bad drivers who steal your food or eat your food not mention don't care how they carry your food
@@real_Pinoy Never said there wasn't "bad" drivers. The point is, YOU as a customer can take action by reporting bad drivers to Uber, omitting your tips, or poorly rating a driver.

@@souleternal7 I report every tip baiting to uber support, even if I don't get paid after calling them, I feel it's our duty to report it so they can at least put a note and if a single customer receive many driver complaint then they will block them from the app.

I agree 👍
It has happened to me for the past 2 days
Disagree, they should remove the tip before set up, the whole nature of a tip is to reflect the quality of service.
I agree, This happened atleast 6 to me yesterday, Us as drivers we are getting scammed by these customers, Now I put my Doordash customers first because I never have this issue with Doordash.
@@monroethegreat7539 it happens w DD too
I'm a walker who carries a note pad and write every name I deliver too with address. If I get baited those names get transferred to a 💩 list.
I'll know not to go back or accept then wait awhile then cancel but that's only if I'm feeling extra salty.
If your like me and service mostly the same areas it's easy to weed them out.
I got tipped baited last night. It showed the customer reduced the tip. However, this morning, I got the full tip and extra.
This has been happening to me lately. It appears that my total week earnings are (example ) $278 available then goes down to $261 in my wallet!!! As a matter of fact I started my day accepting a $13.88 trip with expected tip and when I was done with the trip it only paid me $8.23 in total. I wasn't sure why but thanks to your video I understand why it happens. I wish we could be able to rate the customers as well, since many are lousy, cheap and demanding with a selfish mindset!😏
McDonalds uber eats customers are the worst. I've had to deal with alot of trashy people doing Uber Eats.
Same lol
@seekingtruth1984 so true most McDonald's, burger King, Popeyes customers suck, they will tip bait you all day, not to mention when you get to the restaurant your waiting 5 to 10 mins easily.
It’s 100% happens all the time and it’s getting worse. In the past 2 weeks I’ve been tip baited 5 times. The issue is they will tip you but they can lower it to as little as 50 cents. Uber is completely aware of this issue as a matter of fact they were the ones that told me it was a thing when I a 19 dollar order reduced to 12.
I had a order that was supposed to be 10.50$ yesterday, customer wound up tipping 47$ through the app, I was ecstatic! lol
Almost the same, an $8 tip, pulled into the most expensive house I had ever been to, dropped off the food, rang the doorbell, found out it was an intercom, talked to the customer and left. Tip was changed to $36. Very happy
Had a smaller version of that this weekend, $10+ order was $20+ after delivery because of a $20 tip on DD. DD does that, if it's an exceptionally high tip they'll only show a portion of it. Nice job!
@@PS-js9xw $8 is the max the app will show you for a tip prior to the delivery. They may have changed it afterwards but it is more likely that they tipped you the $36 beforehand and Uber only showed you the $8. (Unless your service was phenomenal :) ).
I use this knowledge to try to determine whether a certain delivery will have a large tip or not. For example if the trip is short I figure Uber will pay $2.50, but if the expected pay is $10.50 then I know there is a good chance the tip will be some amount over $8 even though the customer could also have tipped exactly $8.
Another reason for the amount going up could also be extended waits at the restaurant.
Ecstatic.. Santos I'm sure you complained about it LOL
@@YourDriverMike I always wondered why DoorDash doesn’t show the whole tip amount when it’s a high tip. Why do you think that is?
I just came across a delivery on Uber Eats app for a $3 delivery, meaning no tip. It popped up on my screen 3 times and no one was taking it. Suddenly it came back a forth time but the amount went up to $9. Someone grabbed it right away but I have a feeling the tip will be reversed later on. Just to point out to be careful with orders where customers don’t want to tip initially but then suddenly throws in a big tip.
Uber knows this happens and should fix this...I think it's disgusting that this is allowed.
Should make them email for a tip change, would make the process longer, and stop them from tipping, I wonder if they'll change it. Our power is not accepting rides with no tips at insane distances, Uber is trying to make us do that, but not protect our tips.
Why should you be tipped at all because the tip is a bonus? I hate tipping because why is it my responsibility to pay you with another company hired you? What I mean is you're their employee you don't like what they're paying you for the base job you can complain to them. A Target worker doesn't get to go up the customers and ask them for extra money to help make ends meet because they're not paying enough at their job so why is it fair that you should be able to and why should it be our responsibility to pay you when you were fully took the job that pays that amount of money
@@CrazyHomelessWeirdoUberEats does not "hire" us. This is what I think people get wrong all the time. You are paying for a service to have an independent contractor take your order to your home. If you want us to think your job offer is worth it. Tip appropriately. If you don't want to tip you don't have too. Likewise we have the freedom to decline your offer.
@@Dexion845 that is hiring under a different name you agree to work for what Uber eats pays you.

People like you are the reason people show a really awesome tip up front and then take it away after the order is done. There you self righteous jerk now you get nothing
This happened to me for the first time tonight. I have a 100% satisfaction rating and 742 deliveries. I kept replaying in my head if I did something wrong but I didn’t. I even made it to their apartment before the expected time. They lowered the tip to 1 dollar. 😡🤬

Happened to me twice yesterday. One to a trailer park, the other to a raunchy hotel. Not showing the address is really screwing everything up.

@@jen_305 I agree! I honestly had to find a steady job because uber eats was not working for me anymore. Before, i use to make enough money to survive but now, I bearly made ends meat. I felt i was on my way to homelessness.

My orders always get messed up, so when I get a good driver. I tip them A LOT.. an extra $5 on top of 20% My dad raised me to never order delivery unless you tip at least $4 for their time, no matter what.
That sounds good- the biggest flaw in doordashes system is that they remove any incentive for the driver to give good service. I mean- can you imagine if a waiter in a resturaunt refused to take a families order if they didnt place a cash tip on the table before he even got there? That waiter would be sent home.....
@@abprepboy33 youre comparing apples to oranges though, remember the driver is burning their own gas and wear and tear and the customer knows this
@@thecolorblack4778 customers are paying for what they are getting..... the fact that the dasher is using their own gas and depreciating their own vehicle doesnt enhance the value of what the customer is receiving
@@abprepboy33 but the waiter only has to walk over to the table and not use 20 miles worth of gas to serve you, and they're an employee of the restaurant, so it's their job.

I took the time to run back to the restaurant to get the rest of their order because they had forgotten to put it in the back. My customer told me I didn’t need to do it but I felt bad and did it anyway. I only got tipped $2 for the order…idk if that should be the last time I have a heart or not
I would treat ubereats as postmates- you don’t know the payout period so just avoid the long distance drives above five miles and avoid most fast food places. Cherry pick that way
They also bundle 2-3 and one or two of those deliveries are 40minutes away 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ smh I get so triggered when they do that mess
I've been doing this for 4 days and I've already come to the conclusion to avoid most fast food, and I don't take rides that don't at least equal to 2 dollars per mile
@@largepoodle6036 $6 is pretty damn healthy compared to the average $3 I make per delivery in Austin. It's bleak here, and full of baiters.
I refuse to take orders from a customer I know by name. Shes tip bates three times now. I no longer take her orders. If I accept a pick up for her I drop it instantly. And there doesn't seem to be a way to rate the people you deliver too or make a complaint about tip baiting. I complained about her after the 3rd time it happened to customer service but that went nowhere
Tip baiting is definitely a problem. This is unacceptable and Ubereats should not allow customers the option to do this. If anything, a customer should only be allowed to edit their tip if they’re trying to add more money to the tip. The fact that Uber allows customers to remove their tip completely is very distasteful behavior from the company. Hopefully they will address this problem soon and fix the tipping option to show their support for their drivers.
Started watching this video because I had a $10 tip removed. After hearing this guy say his tip eventually showed up I went and checked my app. The tip got updated to $27 :)
Livin in chicago this has been happening alot and honestly its been turnin me off to wantin to drive for ubereats.. they need to change it to where if u put tip amount its finalized as soon as u put the order in like doordash n grubhub.. idk if ima keep doin ubereats because gas is almost $4 and i hate ppl bait me n make me drive 12miles for $8 when i was supposed to get $13 after tips
I have gotten the tip taken off twice in the last few months. I couldn't be more professional so whatever their reason, it wasn't valid
When customers do this to me the 1st time,or better yet MORE THAN ONCE,they immediately go on Mt "did not tip" memory list so when they pop up,they get CANCELED, let them take advantage of someone else,I don't work for free and that's ALL THE WAY AROUND!!!! I always tip delivery people. Not tipping EVER is tacky and classless
Same here, if I have a friend who is Uber eat we could have a black list of (did not tip) they can share with there friend too.
People that tip bait are 💩. I just got tip baited tonight. People suck.
You don’t deserve a tip if u do not follow the instructions if I say MEET ME AT DOOR and I have to meet u at your car the tip is getting removed
It was today. My first delivery of my now short uber delivery career. This sucks.
Uber steals drivers tips too. I had a passenger who told me that he would tip me 20 bucks and he literally did it in front of my eyes, I saw it and was so happy. But you guessed it, when I finished the ride I checked my earnings for the ride, Uber gave me $5 and kept $15. I couldn't believe it so I decided to check earnings the next day, maybe they'd correct it. But still it stayed the same. If you don't get tips, it's a good guess Uber is skimming your tips. The guy tipped me because he had a friend in my car that was drunk and disturbing me, asking for water, then I had to stop the car because she had vertigo and needed to vomit, she took my gallon of water and I had to get out the car to get my cleaning container to hand it to her just in case she vomited in my car. So at the end, the rider decided to show me the tipping process on his app. I saw the whole thing, but uber stole my tip.
I’m pretty sure they can still change the tip after they put it in for up to an hour so he might’ve taken it back man lmao
This is why i always tip the Uber Driver with cold hard cash of rounding of 10% tip rather then thought an app so the uber company would not steal your rightful earn of 10% tip.
That's it. Tips cash.
tonight had a order show up for $14 and some change. delivered it no problems customer thanked me said have a good night and 20 minutes after i called support cuz all i was payed was $3 well the customer removed the tip entirely and was told just call pay in the morning around 8am eastern. and sorry but this is bs made me seriously wanna go back and beat on their door and ask why they would do that. i literally lost money in gas / maintenance and my time. it cost me more to do that than its worth.
I've only been baited one time, tip of $8 turned into $0.01 after the tip window expired on Uber Eats.
The tip window as I like to call it, makes your time on Uber Eats a bit nerve-wracking. But for me in my local market people are typically honest and quite generous with their tips.
Happens 3 time in 6 days
When I reviewed my rides the next day, and someone tip me a penny ¢01. That angered me more that being tip-bated. I try to be a good driver. I take the advice I get on this channel seriously. This happened months ago and I'm still angry about it.
Lmfao he left a penny to add salt on the wound🧂😂
It’s happened to me. I move on. At the end of the day I call support. Be patient and courteous. Then all for a manager. I’ve been successful all 3 times I have been top baited in getting my money back. They even once gave me a $20 payment when I was only owed 8. Uber eats will pay you if you are persistent and stand your ground. Zach drives fast have an excellent tutorial on what to do. Look it up folks. Get paid what you’re promised.
Important to note that they have an hour FROM THE MOMENT you swipe the “Delivery Complete” tab (if it’s a Hand to Customer order) or click “Delivered” after taking the photo for the Contactless Delivery orders. I have been timing it and it’s been on like clockwork.
I would say from personal experience, I’ve only been tip baited 3 times since I started delivering out in Boise, and I keep a mental note of those customers. I deliver to many of the same people, and I remember the crossroads and restaurant ordered. Is it always accurate? No. This is much easier to do on DoorDash (which there is no risk of tip baiting, but I’ll keep track of the pin in cases of unruly/rude customers - lots you can do). However, I haven’t delivered to any of those 3 offenders after the fact and the other 99.9% of customers have been awesome. I find more often that I receive more than what was originally quoted - not sure if this is due to the “Trip Supplement” (you see this a lot with the “Order and Pay” orders when you sit at the restaurant for 20-30+ mins), but I’m sure there have been a lot that just want to show their appreciation.
Just my two cents. Happy driving, all!
It’s so funny to me because I do it on a bicycle, so I only do rides 1.5km or less from my house which means that whenever I get tip baited, I know exactly where they live. And I come up with creative ideas of how to hurt them.
It happens all the time. I only drive for uber eats. I wish that they were NOT including the tip so I would know the minimum amount I will receive for that specific delivery.
Nah the tip included is way better I drive UE my tips have been way better since they included the tips up front
UE changed the tip policy since they bought Postmates. Now UE has a cap on tipping by including it in the order either if the pay would be $3 (tip included) or $15+ . Before the emerge you were able to make a lot more on tips than in the present.
@@luckyluciano5523 Your kidding, right!?
@@luisesco3517 I’m not sure what you’re saying here. I got a $50 tip two days ago.
I would say do doordash, I know drivers and a lot will not use apps like Uber eats because you can change the tip afterwards.
I was tip baited for going 10miles and lost my gas and time I only went from a to B it was late night and probably no driver was accepting his low pay order
I just took a delivery for about an estimated $12.78, I delivered in 10 minutes and 44 seconds. A couple hours later the pay was the minimum $4.78. Awesome.
I actually message Uber and request that they block me from delivering to that person ever again. I have only had one person who tip bait me/ removed the tip.
"You can do something bad to me one time, but you will not have the pleasure to do it again"
I received an order from McDonald's, was estimating $10 for the delivery. I checked the order as I always do before embarking. It was for 1 sundae. I cancelled the order, that was most likely a tip bait.
Hell yeah lol
Smart
I do Uber Eats...... Today I did 14 deliveries and got 10 tippers. FOUR of them edited the tip down to $0. Nothing on my end was poor service. SUCKS !!!!
never knew this was a thing, you would think that uber eats would make the person go through a process and explain why its being subtracted then uber themselves make the decision, that's like going to a restaurant , leaving the tip, then hour later, go back to the restaurant and demanding it back with no reasoning
Yes!!! It’s happened to me all week! And many have been significant too where I’ve only earned like 2.25 for some deliveries that were 10 plus miles away. Called and Uber confirmed its true and there’s nothing they can do!! Smh! I’ve never had this happen on door dash
Start keeping track of names and addresses. When you see them pop up again send them a message that they stiffed you on your tip last time and that you're denying their service. They won't do it again.
@@jerometruitt2731 how do I access that? I just started
@@AnaTropolis you dont "access" it really. I kept a log book of the name and address and marked the ones I blacklisted. The address you dont get until you deliver but the name pops up as soon as you accept the order.
Me too for the past few days, it's awful. Uber should regulate.
@@jerometruitt2731 just be careful what you say in the chat bc you could easily get in further trouble with Uber, customer is always right to them and they keep chat logs for complaint reasons. The best way to go is don’t pick up the food (depending on your morals) and then cancel. No questions asked, no bad rating. And trust they WILL do it again, even in the off chance they get the same driver and their driver cancels. They just get a new driver.
I have gotten tip baited several times, but usually, they are mellowed out by customers who increase their tip afterward.
Hi Mike, I'm a full time uber eats driver and I'm taking it seriously, I do work hard to do it in the best way that I can, since the expected tip feature started with uber eats here in my market in sept, I got as you said tip baiting 3 times, and it was clear tip bating, I did contact uber eats support and as you have said they didnot do anything about it, so I just kept moving on, because sometimes I still get my tip increased , and I think the experience will help us as drivers sometimes to figure out before accepting any requests if there is a possibility to get tip baiting based on the amount of payout, what time of the day and mostly the area where you dropping it off the order, if the area is not a good tipping area and I receive a request with high payout with the tip thats a red flag and I think twice before I accept it.
@Jenn T don’t forget to share the blacklist of address with your Uber friend. So they won’t be a victim of the tip betting.
@@kaboomwinn4026 hi
But on ubereats, no matter what, I always wait 1hr for tips to come in, they never come in early. Order will say 7.87$ but once I complete the order, it'll always say 2.50$. Then about an hour later, the tip comes in.
Yeah same here, they never show up early at all. If anything its even a little over an hour
@@shiftonephoto yeppp, you don't know how much you made till later
Sinister Santos
that is because Uber Eats gives the customer up to one hour after delivery is done to change the amount, so the system waits that one hour to process the tip.
I appreciate the update, yes since I rarely drive on UE I really thought this was a tip bait but looks like tips just settle like on PM. Still going for DD here in San Diego though!
@@YourDriverMike UE is kinda weird with earnings in particular, seems to be pretty laggy when stuff shows up, and it's even more strange on stacks. They seem to count them as one order in the earnings
It’s definitely happening, this happened to me last night. She even asked me, “does the tip go to you or to Uber Eats?”
I drove a uber eats fancy steakhouse order tonight.. changed their tip to $0!! They were 2 miles from restaurant..so why didn't they pickup themselves!! I took 17 min to pickup and drop. Order promised $11.74 then paid $3.41.
WOWWWWW
@@Texas_Made_ I now keep a list in my car of people that don't tip right on larger orders..
They shouldn't be able to change the tip after the delivery. Name me one other tipping situation where you can get back your tip? Once again you have Gig employers interfering in the relationship between the driver and the customs. Know you're worth people.
Lol. "This food sucks, guess I'll ruin the driver's day."
I’ve changed my tip before but it was because I pre-tipped but the driver was very rude to me because they didn’t read my extremely detailed apartment instructions and threatened to cancel because I couldn’t come find him (I was in a meeting and I work from home- not losing my job to go get a sandwich that I requested to be delivered, sorry). He finally delivered. I took my tip back so quick, worst service ever. I understand some people probably do tip bait but also Uber should keep that feature to encourage good customer service. I’ve always worked customer service but even before hand I had more manners than some drivers.
Then they shouldn't force you to include the tip on your initial bill.
@@tmorelli1982 Hell no. We have to eat and pay bill etc like everyone else. I really hope UE changes that mess.
@@AnaTropolis Perhaps you're not understanding what I'm saying. As opposed to what the OP said, name me one other service that makes you tip before the service is provided?
If I put down a 30% tip, and the driver shows up an hour and 15 minutes late and my food is cold. Should I still give them that 30% tip? No, I'm going to change it.
Just happened to me today and I am 100% sure it was tip baiting, same person did it to me twice that I remember in less than a month. I remember like 3 or 4 weeks ago getting mad like what did I do wrong...so she took the tip back. On top of that she lives in 1 of the worst apartments to do delivery in my area (probably the reason I remember her). Next time I see that name and that address I'm instantly canceling the order!
Just happened to me tonight, not the first time but this was a TRUE tip bait. Followed all their stupid instructions, also wore a mask. She looked me in the eye and smiled and then later took away the tip. I remember where it is too so I really want to egg her house. Total disrespect.
Just put her on the "didn't tip" list that's what I do
But wait, I am consumer/user.
And I find this video just searching to see if the driver sees the tip before.... I'm shocked.
Cause usually, I tip really well, specially when I order lots of food (heavy).
But sometimes, I order heavy stuff, and I feel pity for the guy in the bike, and I add 10 dolars. However, if I see he's comming in a car, I reduce that to 3, cause for him is gonna be easier.
I guess what I'm going to do now is to tip only after the service, not when ordering....
That's normal man. The tip isn't going to come in until an Hour after delivery.
You’re right
Totally
That is what it said on the screenshot in the video.
Yes, this litereally happens with all of my orders on Ubereats that has tips. The tip always shows up later but I always get it
no its not normal an also youre wrong, tips can sometime come even minutes after the delivery depending on what the customer does, but besides thats, it doesnt always take an hour because sometimes customers get to it quicker.
I had a $21 order on Uber Eats. I delivered on time and only got $6. I was expecting the tip to show up an hour later and it never happened. Called support and was told the customer removed the tip and basically was told that they can do that. So i know i was tip baited. Most times the tip shows up and i have had a few customers even go in and give me a higher tip. This was my first time that someone just took the whole thing away. 😮😢
I’m done with UE here in NJ because people are abusing by reducing the tips and the gas prices now is $3.45. For me GH is the way to go.
Gh here is booked smdh
Yes it is! I did 6 orders in 7hrs beccause of travel time and I only got $28. An expected $17 job paid me $3. What the hell?
I have only had this happen once, usually the "as promised tip" within an hour or so later after the delivery occurs. In fact, I have had several occasions were the tip amount is actually greater than promised, you just have get on with it, and not sweat the tip amount if your not seeing it within the first hour.
Ditto
Thanks Vincent, seemed odd as I normally don't do UE but I appreciate the updates from everyone. Still sticking with DD here b/c surprisingly no Boost pay here in San Diego!
Agreed, the one that I had thankfully was made up by a few other orders that night where they gave me extra tips.
@@BM-wc6bt just a heads up the way the Uber offers work they only show you up to an $8 maximum tip, generally if it tells you they tipped more after they actually didn't, it's just that Uber hid the full tip from you originally and then lied to you about it. Still is definitely nice to get those larger tip amounts but don't believe what Uber is telling you.
@@jgerrard565671 honestly that wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest. Thankfully I’m now officially done with Uber and DoorDash so I don’t have to worry about all that anymore.
Uber eats just did this dumb ish. Customers getting away with this bs. They use to give us the full amount before the pandemic.
It happens to me 3 to 4 times a week in average! There are certain customers who by now I am getting to know them and one particular customer acted that he was very happy and satisfied yet after delivering and talking to him he actually reduced it to zero! Definitely they’re doing it to get a faster service, and I have complained to Uber Eats numerous time about this issue.
I got a 35 dollar order
1hr and a half
To shop and deliver
Ended up with only
15$ no tip
Customer was contacting me and being nice
Then screwed me over
.....would've bought some lipstick
If I knew I was gonna get fucked 💄
For me the customer would say “ you won’t get the tip if everything isn’t there” even when I check to make sure everything is there they still don’t include the tip..
That's an instant cancel, if the customer is being that obnoxious then they basicly told me they will be assholes and screw me, not worth the trip
This just happened to me 2 days ago. I messaged ubereats to complain about the payment and they adjusted accordingly.
I will definitely give DoorDash a higher priority based on what Uber eats is allowing customers to do
Same, I rather get guaranteed pay for my work, if the restaurant messes up or takes time then I might get my pay. Especially for order on arrival
I give DoorDash higher priority simply because of their time monitoring. Don’t wanna get banned even though sometimes their expected pickup and delivery times are extremely tight.
Exactly!
@@Theo973 found the tip baiter lmfao
I went straight to restaurant and straight to customer like I always do. I did reach out to the support and they said there is nothing they can do. This has happened to me 4 times in the past week.
I even let them know that I have ordered their food and let them know how long the rest said it was going to take. I have Been getting frustrated by this and went back to door dashing more and using Roadie.
Tip baited a couple days ago. Never knew this was a thing. Lugged 10 gallons of bottled water to a customer's door while wearing a friendly smile despite the heavy load and how much it sucked to deliver it all. Estimated tip: $7. Adjusted tip: $0
WOWWWW
I’m ALWAYS tip baited I end the order and am like *wth it said $15 and then I only $6 for the order BUT *SOMETIMES I see the tip com later in the day and it goes back to the amount or more that is why I always carry my hot bag and Communicate! It helps and your customer notices.
Someone sent a screenshot of when a customer actually lowers the tip post-delivery. So unless the post delivery screen says they've lowered the tip you should be okay and should see that tip come in later. Of course no guarantees though
@@YourDriverMike did you at already make a video on deactivation on DD because earlier today a customer reported to DD that I allegedly “did not” deliver their food when I did DD sent me a appeal email which I of course sent back immediately but I’m disturbed that someone would lie like that!
I actually had this happen to me today on my first Uber eats run. It said $12.50. After I delivered it, it went to $4.50. I was pissed.. and then two hours later, it went to $13.75. Very confusing 🤦♀️
Sometimes the tip shows way after
You probably got tipped more but Uber gave you 13.75
the problem is having these aps. anyone too lazy to get their own food deserves to starve
Anybody here got trick to go farther that the customer location and they said they give you an “big tip”and don’t get no tips :(
Never accept an offer where you'd be unhappy with the quoted amount, and you'll never be disappointed :)
Every Decline raises the Doordash pay for the next person it's offered to. If we ALL decline until the price is right, we all win.
Sadly, I encounter far too many Dashers that undervalue themselves and their time and say things like "if it's $3, hey, that's $3 I wouldn't have made otherwise!" which is... wrong on every level lol
@@harkingmadwing5112 That logic only makes sense when there aren't very many orders available.
At that point accept cash, and take a chance the will actually honor their word. If not then don't deliver
I don't do that at all I call Uber or doordash to let them know so I can choose to do it or not, and make sure they at least compensate me.
Yep if im still at the restaurant and they tell me that, I right there cancel the trip
I was definitely tip baited last night and it was a stacked order so I was supposed to make $20. I only ended up making $12 because one customer removed the tip completely. And I know for a fact I did not make any mistakes. It’s really a bummer and I wish they would at least give us a reasoning why the tip was reduced instead of just reducing it and calling it a day. I know there’s nothing I can do about it and there are just scummy people out there but they really should have a better system so this doesn’t happen. Not to mention if you can’t afford to tip, you can’t afford to eat out, period.
💯💯 facts
Uber eats need to take dat off asap how can we reach them and get it off asap
All the complaining in the world won't change anything. They know this. I can't risk driving so far again like that. Apply for work or take the risk. I say this because it happened to me today and your comment is a year old.
If you get tip baited, immediately call support. Ask if the customer can get blacklisted from your route so you don’t have to deliver to them again. Also ask if they can put notes on that customers account so if another driver complains about getting tip baited, that customer already has a record of doing it which subjects to them getting banned from the system.
When it comes to this issues they literally transfer you like 20 times to the “payment department” but no one actually helps you. “Sorry ma’am you were routed to the wrong department but let me transfer you”. It’s like they do it on purpose cause they know it’s shady. Ultimately they don’t care about us! They are absolutely no help
@@joeyjo7553YES i got transferred like 5 times just to be told they can’t do anything ab it
Yes, it’s happening- they do it intentionally to get their far away order fast then they drop the tip with no excuse or reason - happens to me twice already-
It happened three times to me. Twice I got the food and made a beeline for the customers. Once I should have canceled the order because the wait time was excessive at the restaurant. In any case I kept the names and street name of the few times I've been tipped baited they're on my list. Contacted support they said if you see the names again just cancel the order. Thankfully I have received more than estimated tip amount in many cases.
come to see here in dc area. people do not tip at all. at midnight we have 2 dollars orders. people want to have their food delivered for free.
We all know that tipping isn't mandatory but especially with some bad weather rolling through recently we really appreciate customer tips.
I am an Ubereats driver and a Ubereats customer. I am disgusted of how these customers bait us. Customers literally have no idea what we have to go through for them. They are so annoying when they say i’ll tip u more if you bring me something or anything like that and they end up not tipping anything.
Someone has to stand up and sue Uber plz
Dude, you are over thinking why somebody tip baits or are just scared to say it. They tip bait because they are shady people who never tipped before so they never got thier food because nobody will accept thier order, so they learned of tip baiting and now do it so they can still get thier food without having to tip.
Or they are just cheap fucks that want to get their hot meals cheap, so they put out a nice big tip as a gimme, then once they get their food they reduce it to a $1.00 tip or whatever. This happens multiple times a week in the area Im in.
Your right my man this happens to me today on a order that I had to take it was over 10 miles that I had to bring this delivery to this person I’m figuring that they knew that nobody would drive that far withought them receiving a tip it suks that people are this way
My advice just don’t take orders over five miles. Cherry pick the restaurants
I SHOULDNT BE ASKED FOR A TIP BEFORE SERVICE IS EVEN RENDERED!
Same thing happened to me! Thought I was ripped off at first. I delivered an order a little outside the city in the county and was supposed to pay $10 and then I saw I only got $4 and was feeling pretty bummed about it (especially since it was my first trip and it was a decent amount of miles - not worth $4). But then about an hour later I received a notification stating a $6 tip. My thinking is since a customer can edit the tip up to an hour after delivery Uber Eats does not send the tip until an hour after delivery to ensure that is how much you're getting.
That's exactly it...
And this is exactly why I don’t deliver to city’s or ghettos, not just because you might get robed physically, but through the app as well. People can also say they never got their food and get u fired. People are awful. I’ve delivered over 1000 deliveries in middle class quiet towns where people are great and that has never happened once.
Thats why you always take a photo !
I may have had my first UE tipbait. I would need to check the app for the exact numbers, but as a multi-apper this was an order where I solely went from point A to B. The customer still left a $5 tip, but the trips was reduced from $16 to $9. I decided to not let it get me down and continued onto a profitable shift
My first delivery for uber tonight and they took the tip away.. robbery
I go back later, to their house, and I tip Bait the tires on their cars parked in the Driveway.
Yeah right. You shouldn't be delivering people's food and then when you find out about the hidden cameras you'll be giving them hundreds of dollars of tips in Court and jail for their tires, pls no more Uber job. There's actually legitimate reasons for changing somebody's tip. Tips are supposed to be for good service and good attitude that's how it is around the world. So if you have bad service, you take forever, drive around all over the place , sit parked in your car for a half an hour or take some of the food and have a bad attitude, those are reasons why somebody should change a remove their tip . Why should you reward somebody for doing a crappy job?
In that case go work at mcdonalds youll get real money there
Just happened to me today with a $3 tip. Can we report it the Uber Eats Customer Service? I’m sure that wasn’t the first time that bleep did that. To top it I had to go up 5 flights of starts with no elevator.
Next time I’m going to snap shot the address of every delivery so if I see there name again I’ll cancel the order. This is unacceptable, and unfair to the hard working drivers.
I got tipbaited tonight! Luckily the delivery prior gave me an awesome tip that made up for loss. Good practice is to take snapshots of your trip’s name and address and that way you know to avoid them in the future. If you get a nice delivery amount, check what they’re actually ordering. If they order one or two small things then consider it a red flag and cancel. Also, try to keep of your deliveries reasonably short in travel time/distance as possible so if you do get tipbaited, it won’t hurt you on gas and travel time.
Tip batting is bad. It happened to me like 3 times. You can't change assoles.
How do I set my app to show the map in the background. Every time I get an order it blurs the background that I don’t see where the map is directing until I accept the order?
I’ve done 3 delivers supposed to be $12 and all I only got $2-3 I was fast and everything :(
There's a jail about 10 minutes from me down a long bumpy rocky road. The correction officers always order food with a big tip then remove the tip when you deliver. They do this because they know nobody wants to drive out there so they tip bait hard
I have issues with a lot of issues with ubereats,doordash and skip the dishes. It's that fact that they never knock at all, and that infuriates me, so once i've known that they do not knock, i give the driver a 1 star rating, and take back my uber tip for not knocking. No courtesy knock nothing.
@@thedeadguy you need to let them know to knock on the delivery instructions otherwise people don't like someone knocking unless asked to because there might be a baby sleeping ect .
@@thedeadguy as driver we get yelled at for knocking.
@@joelincolnlincoln6315 well yell back or extend your middle finger.
@@thedeadguy The norm now is asking for the driver NOT to knock or ring bell, the notification comes from the app real time to let them know, just like knocking the door. So, if you do have a particular preference, just let the driver know so we don't have to guess if the knock will make the customer upset or appreciative. You can always rate your driver on following orders, rather than being a correct mind reader and then it's win-win for everyone;)
Mike, I had a door dash today for 32.25. For ten miles. I took it and once upon pick up it changed to 4.25. Door dash support hasn’t done anything. What can I do . This dash was from a company that gets food to people in need . It wasn’t from a food place . Any thoughts ?
It is a real thing!!!! And Uber Eats also CHANGED the end location too! I declined two orders from a particular town and then they changed the end location to be in the town I didn’t want to go to. Ended up delivering to them anyway. But then they removed the tip at the end. Very upsetting because it ended up being 4.63 for a 24 mins drive and over 9 miles! I’m annoyed because that was the reason I didn’t want to go to that town. Some people DONT TIP. Very upset
I don’t work for uber but thanks for letting me know I can tip bait my driver 😂
I was just tip bated last night and I've only been driving for 2 weeks. It was a super simple delivery of some cookies in a paper bag and I got it delivered in 23 minutes. Nothing was wrong with the order but I noticed later that the customer retracted their tip amount. The order was for $9.33 and I was only paid $5:33 with a zero tip. I feel like I go a little above and beyond with my deliveries by communicating with the customer and this order was perfect in every way. There's dishonest people in this world and this person stole money from me essentially. I think it's important for drivers to call support and have it documented on the offenders account. I just got off the phone with support and they said they do notate the customers account and they can be dealt with if they show a history of this theft.
I had a hand it to me, i was nice guy was nice, removed his tip
There is no stealing and no theft. Man, are you drivers entitled.
@@longdongbongchong ...says the mind of a criminal. If your job agrees to pay you a certain amount and then later they actually pay you less, that's called deception on the level of fraud. It's not entitled to expect an amount of money that was agreed upon for performing your work. It's called compensation for services rendered. Boy you sure are lost.
@@shane5385 huh? I think you got me confused. I'm the delivery driver, not the thief that can't afford to use the UE service and then steals from the hard working driver.
My bad
Question: how does tipping work? Because I just added tip AFTER the delivery but I got no charge.
The highest tip ive gotten was 16 dollars and i was shocked because the lady who gave it to me was so rude to me, i was expecting for her to take the 3.43 dollars she was tipping at first but she ended up giving me more
Anytime I edit tip I usually add more tip
As a UE driver.... I appreciate that.
I actually got tip baited and since yesterday I didn’t get my tip and I contacted support and they didn’t do anything about it :(
Same thing happened to me!
@@TravelWithDevan that sucks! I wonder if some people think Uber pays is hourly and then their tips are just extra on top of the hourly... I realized lately people don’t want to tip as much
@@silvaindjarabian8156 not trying to promote my channel here. But I’ve recorded a few recent Uber requests on my channel and it’s very disappointing seeing it say “Includes Expected Tip”. Kind of makes me want to stop driving for the company.
@@silvaindjarabian8156 some people do think that but removing a tip is no excuse unless they food didnt arrive
@@katmoonspeaks Yes absolutely unless if they didn’t get the food however I did find a new method that way I don’t get tip baited. Once I give them the food I also mentioned about their tips and I say thank you that’s very kind of them that way they won’t tip bait because from my experience it happens a lot here in Los Angeles
I have had reduced tips come through for no known reason. Usually someone else that night tips pretty big so it balances out. I have seen this happen with my stacked orders a few times and what I have started doing is letting the customer know I am coming but I have an order to deliver before them. I don't know if they are informed on their end that their order is a stacked order so I just let them know. Most customers are appreciative and I have gotten bigger tips this way. Even when one tips lower than expected, the other one will tip higher so it balances out and I end up making more than the expected pay for that trip. Communicating with the customer is key and has helped me immensely!
B Diddy I like how you handle your stacked orders by letting them know they have an order to get delivered to before them. That is great customer service. Actually, I do not think any of these apps let the customers know when they have a person's order that is before them to be delivered. I really wish they would inform these customers so that they will know because they deserve to know. It's food - ...and if it gets to them barely warm...they deserve to know why. I have a question for you though...how do your "word" your message to them to let them know that they have someone in front of them? What is the wording that you use? (just curious.)
@@girlygirl1890 Good afternoon/evening, (insert customer name) I have picked up your food and I am headed your way. Your order is a stacked order and I have another order to drop off before yours. My apologies for any delays and I will do my best to get your food to you in a timely manner. Thank you for your patience!
I have had customers message me right back saying thanks for letting them know. This led me to believe they weren't informed through the app. Hope this helps!!! Be safe out there and happy driving!!!!
@@ladetygr Ok B Diddy. Yep. You've done it. As a customer I would be very grateful to get this message,. Like I said, when it comes to stacked orders, your customer service is great. (and your message was very well thought out btw). ...shows you care about what the customer is thinking while they are waiting on you. (smile). Thank you very much for all your information - yes, it DOES help alot. And happy driving to you too!
it should be illegal for customers to be able to cancel tips. you agree to drive to them for a certain amount. ive had a few cancel tips for literally no reason. I went right to them, orders were correct... but like others have said, this is the normal screen for ue. it just sucks waiting that hour to see if they cancel or notm
Yeah I love cancelling tips
Just cancelled another tip
I drive for Uber Eats, Doordash and Grubhub all at the same time every time I go out. UE is my #1 and this is just what happens. You complete a delivery and it only shows you the Uber payout until at least an hour later when they finally show you the customer tip if they didn't change it. A lot of times the total payout will end up being more than what was initially shown.
Yes this video is misleading bc he was tip baited it is just ue does. Now after an hour it stayed at $4 then yes ... he was tip baited. I was little disappointed with this video bc I thought he would know better.
Not misleading David as I state I thought I was tip baited but wasn't and I say that. Since I don't typically drive for UE I genuinely thought I was baited as posted in my story.
Thanks for the heads up Kyle, I asked in my story if this was normal so I appreciate the feedback from everyone. Still mainly sticking with DD here in SD
@@YourDriverMike I understand. In my market and other surrounding markets that I go to DD is totally flooded with drivers but Uber Eats and Grubhub still get lots of orders as well. I seem to be one of the very few that drive for UE and GH so I get lots of orders with very good dollars to mile pay. Thanks for all you teach on your channel! I've put a lot practice and have been pleased with the outcome 👍
I have had a 2 times where im pretty sure i was tip baited ( These happened during a late night situation.) Both were on Ubereats too. One of them i was supposed to get about 12 dollars and the customer took the full tip away. a week later still nothing I was pissed... but i moved on too. Another was a 9 dollar order and they took all but a dollar back on the tip. On these deliveries all i did was go from point a to point b I do my standard practice as i arrive at the restaurant i message the customer asking if they would like me to ask for any sauces place there food in my nice hot bags (I often get compliments on my hot bags) and drop them off with the customer. I think from now on though i will at least report these situations as well in hopes to at least help educate these people of the situation they put drivers in.
I took one order. No multi app on Uber eats. Order offer was $9.75. As soon as I completed the delivery, the payout to me was $2. That just happened 20 minutes ago. So livid about it
It takes up to 1hr for the tips to come thru.
In my area, for the past three months it has gone from 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes
True but you might get quoted $10 and get paid $3. It happened to me last week
