Opinion: Uber should make a feature to prevent someone getting food from being part of a multi-order.
I feel like I need to rant about this. This morning, I ordered tropical smoothie on uber eats. It tells me the driver is doing multiple orders but will be at my house by 9:00 AM to 9:20 AM. I’m watching the GPS so I can meet the driver outside so they can move on faster. I see the guy is going around and around in circles on the order before me. Eventually, he completely disappears from the map but it does NOT say that it’s delivered. I try to reboot the app to see if it’s a malfunction but it’s still showing the same thing. I try reaching out to the guy and he picks up on the second call. He thinks I’m his first order and I repeatedly tell him that I’m the second one. He pretty much tells me he’s lost on the first order. If you’re lost, why are you not calling the first order to find out where they are? Instead, you are sacrificing my order. I got so frustrated that I contacted support and cancelled the order with a full refund. I hate it that this always seems to happen with me on Uber Eats. I’m always the last stop on a multi stop order and my food is disgusting most of the time. I wish Uber would create a feature where the person who is receiving the food can choose to not be part of a multi-stop delivery. But it’s only for the drivers.
EDIT: For those calling me lazy, I don’t do uber eats a lot. I did it this time because I was working and didn’t have time to leave. I normally don’t like these apps because they charge SO much more. It’s easier to go to the store. I only use it in exceptions. This was more of a vent post
