Uber Eats Reviews

I bought a food from Subway for my lunch. It was saying that the order will be delivered at 12:20 and my lunch ends at 12:30 and I thought I would be just fine. Then 10 seconds later it said 12:35. I wanted to cancel the order because it won’t make it in time. I asked the customer service and they canceled it and did not refund my money. Even it was their fault. They told me it Will arrive before 12:30 and then they extend the time and also refused to refund. Guys trust me do not use Uber Eats. Use Doordash. I had a friend who waited for 30 minutes and no one accepted his order and he contacted the customer service and they assigned him a driver and also refund half of the payment and also give him 5 dollar credit into his account. Doordash is more responsible and has a better customer service. Uber is refusing to refund my money even it was their fault when they said that my order will be arriving before the told time. Guys do not trust Uber with timing. I ordered a food a few weeks ago. No one accepted my order and I waited 2 hours in the end I canceled it. Just wasted my 2 hours for no reason. They even didn’t assign me a driver saying “Oh, we are sorry we are just too busy”. They should be that busy to make a customer wait 2 hours. So if you have a brain use Doordash. Uber lies, has a trash customer support, and don’t get me started on their irresponsibility Sorry Uber but you just lost a very old customer and a valuable customer

I use Uber and Uber Eats multiple times a day, but my house is sometimes difficult to find. Because of COVID-19, I have been requesting to have my food left at my door rather than meeting my driver in person. I always reach out to my drivers to leave detailed delivery instructions (both in chat and in the instructions box) but sometimes drivers ignore my efforts and leave my delivery somewhere else. I always try to find where they left it, but when I can’t, I request a refund and reorder my food. This has happened so often in the past few months (because I haven’t been meeting my drivers outside), that they now refuse to give me a refund regardless of my issue. Less than an hour ago, I received a delivery with about $20 worth of food missing. I reached out to support to get a partial refund for the missing items on my $60 order, providing a picture and explaining the situation, but both times that I spoke to someone they informed me that there was nothing they could do. I’m really disappointed because I genuinely use Uber more than once a day every day. I really hope that this review will draw some attention to this issue and possibly result in a refund, otherwise I’ll have to turn to other apps like Lyft and DoorDash. I hate leaving reviews like this, and truly wish I could leave a higher review on an app that I use so often, but I don’t think it’s fair that I am being charged extra for things that are out of my control.

I only used Uber eats because I received an Uber wats gift card. Our first order went fine, took a while to arrive, but food was as ordered. The second order is where the issues began. I ordered from a pizza place, and half hour after the placing the order it was inexplicably canceled. I put the same order in again. We waited the whole expected wait time and nothing. I called the restaurant and was informed they don’t do business with Uber eats and they don’t know how Uber eats for their info. At this point two hours after we were getting hungry we just placed the pizza order on our card with the pizza place and moved on. The most recent order we went with the first place we ordered from as it went smoothly. Order went well. I placed order with my gift card covering all of the order and then $2.10 of the tip and used credit card to cover the remainder of the tip. After delivery when everything charged it would not charge the tip. Insufficient funds on gift cards it said. I contacted customer service as the card base sufficient funds for the partial payment of the tip that I setup when I checked out. Hours later my issue is still not resolved, probably going to just cover the tip with my card fully and abandon the $2.10 remaining gift card forever just to get away from this awful app. Terrible customer service, eat message is from a different person, and they all say the same thing over and over.

Had horrible service from this app when I was using them five years ago, again and again, consecutively bad, along with terrible support for said horrible service, and decided never to use them again. As stated, it’s been five years. They offered a $25 off an order of $30 to come back to UberEats . Decided to chance it. What a surprise, it’s been hours and as usual, our food hasn’t been picked up so by the time we’d finally (maybe) get it, it’d be so cold and disgusting that I wouldn’t want to eat it. Canceled the order and asked for a refund for that exact reason, and the cheapskates wouldn’t let me keep the promo. I ordered this as a very rare treat for myself, and the entire app failed to deliver. Hasn’t changed despite the passing of five years. Y’all probably would have more drivers if you paid them a living wage instead of the disgusting “by order” pay that you do in order to get the most work out of people for so little pay that they have to work for multiple delivery apps at the same time in order to scrape by. But nah, why be decent when you can make cash hand over fist that you’ll never be able to spend on one lifetime.

UPDATE: after UberEats crashing multiple times and support being, unsurprisingly, the worst, instead of cancelling the order and giving us a refund, they’ve allowed someone to pick it up despite the fact that the restaurant is now LONG closed. Crappy app. Crappy support. Cold and inedible food. Use them at your own risk.

So I have to say I have successfully used Uber eats many times. That said if something goes wrong, there is absolutely no recourse. Recently, after trying to find a restaurant in my area to pick some food up from I placed an order. It was for a Vietnamese restaurant that I had been wanting to try in my neighborhood. Except the one in my neighborhood had closed a few months before without me knowing it. The one I was clicking on was three cities and about 45 minutes away. The moment I place the order and the address came up I realized the mistake. I quickly called the restaurant and told them not to make the order. They said they would cancel it and suggested I reach out to UberEats . I tried to call UberEats immediately but there is no phone number. Anywhere. Customer service literally does not exist. Finally a few days later I track down an email. I made the complaint. I told them it had been only 90 seconds from ordering to cancellation. I told him the restaurant confirmed that they had never made the order. But they don’t care. They sent me an auto generated reply and charged me $23 for a meal I never had. A few friends told me this is happened to them as well, as if UberEats is intentionally suggesting places that are too far away. I suggest you call the restaurant directly and have their delivery people bring the food or use another app with real customer service. I certainly hope this isn’t a window into a human less future. Sad. And expensive.

**update** I received a response from Apple saying UberEats developer responded to my review. It seemed like they wanted to help resolve my issue, but no direct contact information to get the help. I am tired of continually emailing the “help” link (which was the only contact info included in the email) and getting a different person every time, and they do not actually help me! I did it twice and no help, and that’s why I’m submitting this review. **

I placed and then canceled an order literally 30 seconds after I placed the order. The reason I cancelled was I did not see that the order said “for pick-up” and I wanted delivery. I didn’t even know that when ordering through Uber eats there are other options?? I’ve never seen that before. Anyways, they said the restaurant had already started making the order and that’s why I was still charged. This was completely false because I called the restaurant a few minutes later and they had not started making the order and received the cancellation successfully. I submitted for help through UberEats and I received an email that, as a courtesy, I would receive a refund. It’s been two weeks and no refund. I submitted for help again only to get an email saying they issued the refund and I need to check with my bank. My bank, obviously has not received anything. Uber is being very deceitful and likely has fraudulently received millions of dollars because of situations like this. I will not use them ever again.

I ordered my food at 1pm, the delivery time was expected to be at 2:10pm, which was fine because my lunch wasn’t over until 3pm, I get an hour lunch. At 2pm my order delivery status went from 2:10pm to 2:40pm I’m not sure why but there’s no excuse and very unacceptable. I tried to cancel my order for 10 minutes but the prompt wouldn’t appear at all. UberEats is not working accurately. I tried to contact my driver to see if he could drop off my order to me as soon as possible due to my lunch going to end soon, but of course I didn’t get a response. To make matters worse the driver delivered my order to the wrong area, causing me to leave my patient, I wrote specific delivery instructions and they were ignored. Also my food was cold. I tried to contact customer service to report the issue via, website, app and phone and unfortunately got through to nobody, the phone repeatedly disconnected the call and the chat option wouldn’t appear on UberEats . I will be sending a email to Corporate as well as the phone screen video of myself repeatedly trying to cancel my order with no success. I feel disrespected as a customer; this issue has happened more than once, enough is enough. I will be canceling my this app pass, I refuse to give this company my hard earned money just to be treated like trash. I work hard every day for my money so please don’t think I am low life trying to get a discount. I am a paying Customer giving a review on a company I made a purchase through.

Ordered from Papa Ginos and at checkout was told they (the restaurant) deliver themselves and no real tracking would exist for the order. Over a half hour from the estimated delivery window, now like an hour and half from when I ordered, the manager says the order is there and no one picked it up. She indicated UberEats /UE system was new to them. I then have to explain to them the way they are listed in this app as being responsible for delivery. They say contact this app who in UberEats say contact the restaurant. I asked her if they could try to cancel the order because if I did I would be charged the entire amount as a free. She said she would. Nothing. Still pending delivery. Call back and she says she can’t help me the order doesn’t show up any more for her to see. So for the next hour and half after that I wait to see what will happen. I send a customer service message the best I could find which was, I was charged a cancelation fee, and left a message. It wasn’t until 9:19pm that I get a completed order notification and email like everything was all good and my card was going to stay charged. I then was able to say I didn’t receive my delivery and again another message gets sent. This was the worse experience I ever had with any delivery app like this platform and I use multiple competitors. My kids and I waited for nothing, never received anything, and I had to pay for it. Not cool. 0 stars if I could. I will be filing a BBB complaint.

I’m not paying for your pass. So why do you show me all these options for free delivery? I can’t see the actual delivery price until I’m done with my order. Feedback: It’s crazy frustrating to see $0 for delivery if you have the pass but you can’t see how much the fee would be if you didn’t get the pass. Then you go through the whole process of ordering something and then when you get to your cart, your $20 meal turns out to be $30 because of the delivery fee I wasn’t allowed to see until the very end. And then now it’s like, I can’t justify paying $30 for an omelet delivered. $20 was already crazy. It’s so annoying. SO annoying. I honestly am just angry. The way UberEats is set up, it’s terribly un-user friendly for anyone who doesn’t have the pass. Is that the goal here? To have your app bother me so much that I buy your pass? Hot take: no one needs an omelet that bad. Btw two nights in a row now I’ve waited an hour or so for a meal to then have it canceled. Tonight there was no explanation to why either. Just cancelled. I don’t know how you could improve the experience for users there, but I thought I’d share that with you too. It’s another reason I think I’m done with UberEats. Developers, don’t bother responding to this. I really don’t think I’ll ever use UberEats again. Im tired of this. It’s just so gross to have such blatant promotion of something I don’t want forced on me if I want to use UberEats.

I’ve only used UberEats twice, but giving 2 stars because they apparently charge you for a 40% tip to your delivery driver from a 2 week old order.. I got on UberEats last night to search for a restaurant in my area. Before I could begin my search, UberEats asked me to rate my experience from an order I had placed over 2 weeks prior. I happily gave the restaurant good ratings, and gave my delivery driver good ratings as well. Then to my surprise, a notification pops up that a tip has been added to this 2 week old order. How this happened, I have no clue. I then go onto my bank statement to find that I was charged for a 40% tip on this order.. again, how this happened, I have no clue. I never typed in any tip amount, let alone authorize UberEats to charge a tip to my account. I reached out to customer service about this issue and was responded to with a message that said they are only able to edit tip amounts up to an hour or 2 after delivery, and that I should please be careful to check that my order is correct before submitting it next time. If this is their policy, then how on earth was I charged a tip two whole weeks after the fact?? Not only does their tip policy contradict itself, but how I was charged a tip in the first place still perplexes me.

I hope my delivery driver enjoys her tip. Her service was satisfactory.

Uber Eats gets a thumbs down. It’s the principle of the thing.

On Uber, there are ways to give actually write feedback about interactions with drivers. On this app, you only have the option of preprepared feedback options to click on.
I’ve had multiple bad interactions with drivers with no real way to complain other than a thumbs down. One driver delivered to the wrong apartment, I contact the driver and they refused to accept they delivered to the wrong place, talked over me when I said I didn’t receive and was just extremely rude.
Very frequently, the drivers in my area do not read my instructions to find my apartment (I made sure these instructions were very detailed due to living in an apartment) and contact me for assistance finding it. This wouldn’t be much of an issue, but multiple times they were not even on my street. I’ll open my door to wave them down and I’ll see them turning the corner of the street. My instructions include to park on the lot on my street, so they either cannot read a map or did not read my instructions. I’ll then get an alert that the driver had trouble following directions and I may want to update them. There is no way to give further details to these instructions unless I go treasure map details of how many paces to go in each direction.
I use these instructions of how to find my apartment whenever I order for delivery from anywhere and this app is the ONLY delivery service I’ve ever had drivers have issues following them.

I have been using UberEats for quite a while now, and while I can understand a missing item here and there (sometimes stuff just happens), issues for 3 orders in a row is ridiculous. Last night we ordered from the McDonald’s we always do and when the driver got here, it was someone else’s order. She had delivered our food to that person instead. When we told her the issue she said okay and then left with the wrong order so we were left with nothing. So we ordered the exact same thing with a note to the driver to double check that it was the food we had ordered before bringing it upstairs. The time goes by and UberEats notifies me that the food has been delivered. It hadn't been, and the driver hadn’t contacted us at all. At this point we had given up on the drivers for the night. Now fast forward to less than an hour ago and we decide to try again since it is now daytime and not at night and maybe we had just been unlucky. The driver arrives and is missing ten dollars of food that we ordered. We ask him to wait a sec while we check the bags and he runs back to his car and drives off. Then we call the restaurant and they confirm that all items had been bagged and handed together to our driver. Which certainly makes it seem that he kept one considering how he ran off. Normally it could be understandable for a mess up here and there but 3 times in a row? With different restaurants? Come on.

Alot of my issues here arent the drivers. For the most part they are pretty good. Or what they are delivering is closed up in a bag and they cant verify its all there. My issues are mostly app related. Like constantly telling me if i added notes to my address it would be easier for drivers to find me. Literally am that one person that has detailed landmark instructions on how to find me. Maybe look at those notes and dont consider me having a conversation with the driver about literally anything else as they are lost. Maybe i want to make sure they actually did my drink iced this time cause for some reason the coffee place near me it does not see it as iced on thier end even though UberEats has it listed as iced. Today its decided i must speak spanish and changed all of my notifications to spanish. I know i order ALOT of mexican food but cmon. We like burritos at work, its a thing. And my fave thing EVER is that time i accidently typed in the wrong tip amount and since i was at work did not notice tiljust past an hour after it was ordered, and instead of dude getting 2$ (he was rude) he got 200$ and even being a platinum member couldnt fix that. I mean i can tip drivers within i think 24 hours, but eats nope. So in conclusion, i like my drivers, its UberEats that needs improvement. And can we seriously just make the tip time limit longer, i cant always get to my phone within the hour time limit and sometimes i want to up the tip.

I use UberEats a lot and have always rated it highly on feedback questions. I have also recommended to friends. The customer service I have experienced has been great as of now and has even exceeded my expectations in spite of other customers' bad experiences with it based on other reviews. However, the prices are getting ridiculous and it shows how much they don't care about their customers. If they would be smarter business wise, they wouldn't keep raising the prices unreasonably and customers would order more frequently. We have to pay for taxes, delivery fee, AND the booking fee which is 15% of the customers' total AND the tip. I always leave a tip because I care about the delivery partners getting paid well and getting the credit they deserve especially if they do a great job. I was about to order food today which costs $40 in total and with how much they are charging now it comes up to $60! I don't care what purpose it all has. 20$ on top of the food I'm ordering? That is utter abuse to the people who help your company continue to succeed. You should not treat your customers so poorly and should value them especially since your apps are successful. I will either use this app for emergencies only or will not be using any Uber app again if this does not improve in any way. Ridiculous.

Let me just start with saying Door Dash refunds are instantaneous. Now, I am making a point to leave this review because what happened to me is wrong. So, I ordered food for my wife yesterday and it was delayed four times before we decided to simply cancel the order in its entirety. I was on the phone with customer support to have the order canceled and support told me to stay on the line while they connected with their driver. This was to let them know the order was being canceled, then all the sudden on my app when I was still on the phone with Uber eats support mind you. My order gets completed? So, without the order ever even coming within 20 minute radius even near my wife my card gets charged because the driver was given a heads up by Uber eats to cancel my order i.e. mark it as completed. Not to mention I had to call customer support 3 times so they could understand I wanted a refund to my card and not my Uber eats account. Really, Who wants to spend money on a app that literally doesn’t work for the consumer? Worst experience I have ever had and with no recommence from Uber eats I’m out 23 bucks for 3-5 business days and no credits in my account for all the bull. I should’ve gotten some kind of, “I’m sorry” credits from Uber eats but apparently my past history of ordering from them over $300+ means nothing to them.

Honestly I never write reviews for apps but I need to warn other costumers of the irregularities in this service. my experience with UberEats in Puerto Rico has been frustrating. Although the food and the drivers have been absolutely amazing, the telephone and app costumer services are terrible. The first time I called the operator basically started arguing with me because he thought PR was not in the US. Then he couldn’t find my address and I offered to give him the original address and he basically shouted he didn’t know any Spanish. He also interrupted me repeatedly and didn’t allow me to explain what I needed. On a second occasion, the technician left me 10 minutes on hold and then told me that if I cancelled it was my fault so I was going to be charged for the full amount of the order (which was aprox $100 bc I was ordering for several people). In summary, UberEats will not let you make any changes after you submit the order and it is practically imposible to fix them or cancel. Other local apps (that have higher service fees) have an editing option and you are able to fix your order quickly, they also have great costumer service and will solve any other issues over the phone in no time. I’ve been using Uber because it was cheaper and faster but will refrain from doing so in the future. I left multiple comments and feedback on UberEats and not even an answer. I rather pay 3 extra dollars and being treated like a human being.

So honestly I’ve been using Uber eats for a good while now and I can say that it is amazing! So many places to try out and I love it’s membership. Uber One is very reliable and totally worth the price because delivery fees and service fees be 🙄🙄🙄 but yea definitely worth it and lots of things you can redeem your points off. Personally I think that Uber eats should expand your area by at least an extra mile since the max is like 4.5 miles or 5 miles, something like that. There is a chick fil a nearby but it’s a drive and Uber eats declared it’s too far to deliver to so I was bummed out. Another thing is that Uber eats have way more deals and coupons then any other service! It makes no sense how every 2-4 days there sending coupons to my email which I’m thankful for cause I guess that’s the best way to lure in customers. Finally there customer support is sooo nice and kind. I once ordered Uber eats late at night and I asked for a specific order but McDonald’s gave me the wrong order so I contacted Uber eats and they gave me a complete refund of my order and gave me a 13$ tip. All I can say is that Uber eats really cares for its customers if there customer service is fast, drivers are fast, and usually the food is fast as well. PS: Uber eats is wayyy better then DoorDash 🤮🤮🤮, there service I’m not gonna talk about

Joseph kept me well informed about my order. He delivered a completely accurate order with utensils, condiments, and all items included. He delivered my order early, dropped it at the door as arranged. When I opened the door, he wished us a very sweet Happy Valentine’s Day greeting. On the other hand, my daughter was amazed as she waited for her order from another restaurant very close to this Cracker Barrel through a DIFFERENT delivery service. After waiting several hours, she received a call saying her order was going to be another 45 minutes before it was prepared, and they sounded like they wanted her to just cancel the order. At that point, she, her, husband, and oldest son were starving and she said that she preferred to wait. (For point of reference, I had just placed my order for two (mentioned above), and mine showed as already being prepared. My order actually arrived well before her order left the restaurant. When her order arrived, she had no bread which was to be included with meals. She also was missing an appetizer and their order was cold. While the company did reimburse her for missing items, it was a disappointment. So, thank you to Joseph, this app , and Cracker Barrel for your exemplary service!

my personal opinion on Uber eats is that it’s a really good app for ordering food and stuff. My order is always on time and if not it gives me a notification when it’s going to be late or not and I really honestly appreciate that. And all honesty I believe that Uber eats, is a lot more better than Postmates because Postmates sometimes most of the time forgets your order and that really pisses me off but with Uber eats that does not happen. it happened only a few times and I’ve gotten really mad but it’s fine I understand. I dont get as upset anymore because you know I probably didn’t request utensils so that’s probably why I didn’t get any. I also did not get my drink once which was really you know kind of annoying but it’s fine I’ll live. I think it was just a problem with the restaurant I ordered from Taco Bell so I think that was what you know caused it but yeah overall I really like Uber eats anything everyone who is too lazy to go out and buy food should definitely download UberEats it is one of my favorite applications to order food because I’m like really lazy and my food always comes on time and I really love it and I’m really glad that I download UberEats because it really saved me so much time and effort and yeah.

I’ve ordered through this app before and have not had any major issues with deliveries. However, the two times that I’ve ordered with specific delivery times requested, there has always been an issue. No exceptions. The first time which was several months back, my order was over an hour late and the restaurant actually sent their own driver to deliver, but yet I’m sure Uber charged the restaurant for this. Unacceptable. The second time was yesterday, the restaurantI ordered from called me three times letting me know that the food was ready but no Uber driver had come by to pick up. It is impossible to get a hold of any customer support via chat on the Uber app. Impossible and very unproductive. I could not cancel the order because the restaurant had already worked on it, and I could not reach someone via chat. Long story short I will say they ended up refunding my order because I sent several messages very upset. My food was actually picked up and delivered three hours late, cold. It was not the restaurant’s fault it was this app support and the inability to contact someone in an efficient manner as soon as a problem arises. This is my reason of giving them one star because UberEats has no good way of contacting someone fir help.

I ordered Uber Eats one night and experienced normal updates until the driver came to my apartment complex. When he arrived, he called me since he was having issues finding my apartment (I had already provided him specific directions for whenever he or she would enter my complex). The issue was l not that he could not find my apartment. He was irritated on the phone and complaining about the complex’s poor lighting (again, post me providing him with detailed directions within the complex). Once I stood outside waving to him, I assumed he would be at my door soon (since he said he saw me waving). A few minutes later, I saw him drive off. I now think that he drove off with an Uber rider in order to make more money. Assuming he was gone, I ordered food directly from the restaurant. My boyfriend was picking it up when I got a knock on my door. It was the Uber Eats driver delivering half eaten soup and the rest of my cold order. On top of that, he left the food on the ground instead of handing it to me at my door. I never even saw the man. I have contacted their customer service at least 4 times and have yet to get a refund...even after providing pictures of the half eaten soup and the 2 orders side-by-side (proving I proceeded with a personal order rather than eating the one left on my doorstep 40 minutes late after a mysterious disappearance and aggravated driver). Do not order Uber Eats. I recommend using any other food delivery service.

I had an order with McDonald’s, which was cancelled by this app. Later, I received a phone call from one of their representatives, who claim that the restaurant was having technical difficulties which did not allow them to see any items from orders and thus cancelled my order. The lady also claimed that the restaurant was going to close due to such issue. However, as I then called the restaurant directly by myself, they said that there’s nothing wrong with them and they are not going to close until their regular closing time. Why did the representative just lie to a customer like twice? Was she making things up to just avoid responsibility? This had never happened to me before so I called the customer care line right after. This time the representative apologized to me and promise to look into the case. However, he told me to try re-order, after I have already wasted 30min in the late night, feeling hungry. But what happened next shocked me, UberEats marked the restaurant as “unavailable”.

I sent this case via email to the customer care again, and the response I received was such a joke. They replied to me promising that they are not going to charge me on the order and explained to me how the refund work. But I mentioned nothing about the money at all... All I complained about was the unprofessional service I received which they didn't even bother to apologize for.

Thanks this app for showing me the bottom line of customer service.

Last night I was looking around on UberEats and put a few things in my cart but then I thought about it and decided the delivery fee was too much for me so I wanted to cancel it. I accidentally pressed place my order and IMMEDIATELY pressed cancel. Instead of canceling my order as soon as possible the button called uber support and the woman (after talking for ten minutes despite me telling her she had to call the place as soon as possible) told me the food had already been made so she couldn’t cancel. I didn’t understand why not pressing cancel didn’t cancel the Oder but that was just the first part of a very unpleasant hour. I ask her if there’s anything I can do to fix it and she repeated the same thing over and over. I hung up and called the KFC store the woman there told me UberEats doesn’t allow for them to cancel and she’s tried several times. She also said the woman from uber told her she couldn’t cancel because the driver was there contradicting what uber told me. I asked for a manager and the uber woman said she didn’t have one. So not only is every customer assistant stupid but also incompetent and unsupervised. I called a different uber support woman and she told me she could’ve canceled it if it hadn’t been sent out and when I told her about the previous woman she said there was nothing she could do. So I just spent money on food I didn’t want because uber assistance doesn’t know how to do there job and assist. Not ordering from them again.

My husband and I placed an order at 6:25 pm with an expected delivery time for 7:11 pm. It was 7:30 pm and we hadn’t heard anything from anyone, so I had submitted a complaint saying I hadn’t received my order. Next thing I know, I find out that the order has been cancelled and I didn’t receive a single phone call as to why. I submitted another complaint and received no response again. I called customer service only to receive scripted responses and repeated sentences. As it turned out, the driver just cancelled the order claiming to not be able to find my apartment because I didn’t list the number, which isn’t true. And even if it was, I would’ve received a phone call or a message of some kind, but I didn’t. I asked to speak to a supervisor and the representative kept saying that I would only get the same answer from his supervisor. After asking her for some form of compensation for the two hours I wasted in waiting to get the food, she only told me to re-order the food for the same price. I had mentioned to her that other places we’ve had issues with had given us some form of compensation, reduced delivery fee, or $5 off the next order. She then said, “We’ll respect your decision”
As far as customer service goes, Uber eats is the worst I’ve ever dealt with. If you want to keep a customer, you should at least offer something as compensation for a mistake that was made on YOUR end.
Never ordering from them again.

I’m deleting UberEats and never using this service again. I was adding items into my cart when plans changed and I decided to meet friends elsewhere. As I started deleting the carted items, I must’ve hit “Complete Order”, as that’s what happened. UberEats is set up so that one cannot cancel an order. Oh yes...there’s a way to stop delivery of the food....but you’re still paying for it. You have to go to the help screen, select cancel order, then be told to go to the receipts icon on UberEats main page, tap it, select cancel order, be shown a cookie that states that once a restaurant has “accepted” the order, canceling is impossible. Then you can choose to either keep the order, or call a number, which places you on hold for 5 minutes, after which you are connected to a less-than-helpful person who, after listening to your complaint informs you that since the order has been accepted and being prepared, there’s “nothing we can do”. This is totally unacceptable to me, and I hope it is to the rest of you, so here is how you ACTUALLY get you’re charge reversed:
Call your bank/credit card company, dispute the charge, explain it’s because of bad/untimely customer service with no product/services received, wait 12 hours or so...and voila. Charges reversed. To ensure this never happens again, go to your Uber eats app, delete it, and go back to Grubhub like I did. Problem solved. Bad Form, Uber eats...you just lost another customer.

UberEats is absolutely useless and I am considering never using Uber Eats again. Your ONE job is to deliver food to people, and UberEats makes that next to impossible. I only use UberEats when I don't have the energy to cook dinner - after taking care of two children and working third shift, some days it's not possible for me to muster the energy to do so. So when I use this delivery service, I am depending on it to come through. TWICE now I have had the delivery address somehow automatically filled in to a nearby restaurant - one that I have ordered Uber Eats on before. I absolutely never filled this in as my delivery address myself, nor did I ever choose it as my delivery address. This awful app decided to make that decision on its own somehow. The second time this occurred (today), I manually changed the address to my own and it was correct in UberEats . Then, lo and behold, my poor delivery driver calls me outside of said restaurant with my order. This is absolutely unacceptable. He was not even sure that he would be able to complete my order based on your algorithms. He apparently called and fixed things and was thankfully able to complete my order. At least 45 min of his time was wasted, not to mention mine and my kids time waiting for our dinner. UNACCEPTABLE. Uber’s customer support sent me a message apologizing for my food being late and offering a $5 gift card. Yeah no thanks. Not using again.

So I used to use Postmates and Door Dash until I noticed how they didn’t care for customer service, and if anything happened with you’re experience with them then you’re SOL. I used this app and I do love how if the restaurant makes a mistake they’re willing to help you out, but I had the worst experience just because I made a mistake and tried to fix the issue myself. If I would’ve been able to cancel my order within the 5 seconds that I placed it, the the restaurant would have never made it and I could’ve re-ordered; however, I like several others have had to deal with waiting on the line just to get horrendous customer service from representatives that transfer you without consent and have to explain to the next unhelpful person. I’ve never had to deal with something like this and feel like I shouldn’t have to especially if I tried to fix my own mistake without needing my money back. If your company is going to allow this type of behavior and service over a petty few dollars, then I’m willing to scoop down to your level and actually dispute the charges and be done with your app because when someone doesn’t give you your money you cancel their accounts so I heard. And to anyone reading this don’t make the same mistake I did, make sure that you are 100% certain that’s what you want, or else you’ll go through the same ordeal as I did trying to get it resolved.

Would not recommend unless deliver options were limited , Uber is super fast to take your money and super slow to refund .
I was a consistent user of UberEats but the quality of their food service is not good. The restaurants WILL miss up your order your carrier WILL be late and your food WILL arrive cold and you’re paying top dollar for places that are 1-3 miles away yes a short distance and drive able but if you’re looking at UberEats you clearly don’t want to leave your home . When their is a problem with your food they expect you to write a full report about what items were missing or incorrect and instead of giving you a refund they claim they’re looking into it if I didn’t continue to pursue a refund I would have never got it .
In addition to weak customer service and lack of communication between courier restaurant and user when they refund they do NOT refund US dollars instead it’s Uber credits which is just a scam to keep UberEats the Uber money is as useless as it sounds you can only use it when ordering Uber eats or an Uber and the credits are only applied if you remember to check the box that charges your Uber credits.

Funny thing about the Uber credits is it means nothing it’s still your money it just makes your money less expendable and you can only use it for Uber only thing good I can say about it is it MIGHT be a good feature for little kids and parent controls but oh wait minors cant use Uber legally you must be 18+ .

The Uber app is not bad so I did not expect anything less from this app. I cannot speak for the this app service in other locations but in I’ve had the worst experience in Philly. I wanted to give UberEats a try because they offered me a $20 credit for inviting a friend. Besides the fact that I still had to cover another $20 for a discounted $10 meal ($30 - $20 credit) my food took almost an hour and a half to arrive. Time stated 45 - 55 mins, and at the hour mark the time estimated was extended twice. A few friends had the same situation happen. I’ve had Ubers rises that drove me from my house into center city faster with traffic than how long it took food deliveries from a restaurant 5 mins from my house to get to me.

The map on UberEats is not accurate either. It would say the driver is down the block, and the indicated driver would be there for a good 20 mins sitting down the block. It would say 0 mins to arrival or at my location to then it changing to tell me its 15 minutes away.

The this app experiences for me was terrible. I did not have a purpose for it because I do not see the need to pay extra service fees when I can pick up my own food in the area (kudos to those who want to spend the extra few for service and delivery fees). But if I was in the pool of customers that this app is targeting then I would be highly disappointed. Normally I would get this food myself, and I should have. If I wasn’t baited with this offer I would not have wasted my time.

I used to use it all the time but getting on it again it was SO FRUSTRATED.
UberEats it’s self is honestly trash it has the same bugs it had months ago and I can’t even use it anymore! My grandmother is ill and she can’t drive anymore so she wanted mc Donald’s (her favorite) so I offered to drive but she refused because of the weather here. I downloaded UberEats and made my order. At the beginning, it’s asking for a phone number to my account. I don’t have an account yet but that’s not even an option on the front page. I type my grandmothers number and to my surprise she has an account so lucky me. It asked for the password and I got it but for some reason it then bugged out and crashed my phone when I tried logging in. So I opened it again and tried to log in again, it worked after another crash when I reset my pass. I started my order and when I had been sitting there for 10 min checking off boxes just for UberEats to not recognize the order and bug out and I have to make the order again. I finish my order and now I’m adding my Address, after I add my address and my order it tells me It can’t deliver to my part of town AFTER I did all that. So it bugs out again and I have to reset UberEats . I’m done trying and am deleting UberEats and never using it again. I didn’t want to leave a review but my grandmother was very angry at “modern technology” so I decided to leave a review so maybe the developers can fix theses problems.

If you are hungry, DO NOT USE UberEats. I have had problems in one form or another with every single one of my orders. Most recently, I placed an order for a nearby restaurant while I was at work and unable to leave. After waiting for the order to be completed and picked up, I received a call that one of the items was not available. Instead of canceling that item they cancelled the entire order and when I went to the help section to contact customer service, I was shown a standard message with no one to reach out to. I then re placed the order and had to wait for a new delivery driver to drive across town, wait for the order to finish being prepared and then delivered. 2 hours later I received my order with no apology or credit. In addition, I was not able to order the ingredients that I wanted because there are no comments section and they did not have all items that are in stock listed. My order was from Subway which is only a block away, next time I will just order Jimmy Johns directly so I at least know that I will get me food and not have to wait around for hours.

Update after response from this app: You do not value customer input. There is no section on your app to reach out to customer service, I tried for an hour to find a way to reach someone before moving on with day. The only way I was even able to hear from someone was by posting a review. I have never been so appalled by such a lack of customer service in my life.

The application itself works great and has many great choices in my area.

Unfortunately, I will no longer be using the (eats) service due to the rising booking fees. I could understand the fees based on distance for standalone companies hiring their own drivers. Uber has drivers who are intending to drive these distances for pay and can continue with more rides after leaving the destination (home) rather than having to drive back to the starting destination (restaurant). A pizza delivery through the pizza company 5 minutes away has a 50% lower delivery cost than Uber does for a restaurant in the same general area (within .2 miles). This is unacceptable. I guarantee you will continue to lose customers, as I already know of several other who are moving to your competitors for this very reason. I’m disappointed I will not be ordering my favorite tonight through Uber eats because it is $9 for a 10 minute drive. The restaurants are already inflating their prices from their in store prices. Don’t add to the problem.

Update: 2 days go by since the initial review. I opened UberEats out of curiosity and was welcomed by a notification touting lowered booking fees. From what I noticed (based on my ordering history) there have been no lowered prices. I’m glad I’m not wasting my money on this any longer. I used to order regularly from Uber eats but this has gotten out of control. Fix yourself, Uber.

The biggest problem I have with UberEats is that when you open it, it does not default to your current location. It defaults to your last location where you placed an order. This makes it easy to make the mistake of placing an order for food that may not even be in the same city as you. Not a big deal, if the cancellation policy wouldn’t allow the restaurant to charge you full price for an order that you know you will not be able to receive, irregardless of how fast you realize your mistake and cancel the order. I cancelled an order IMMEDIATELY as it was placed because I noticed my mistake as UberEats was placing the order. It charged me full price for my order even though I cancelled within 2 seconds of the order being confirmed. When I called customer service, they were able to see that from the time I placed the order until it was officially cancelled was 12 seconds. They said the restaurant was already preparing my food. Give me a break...They ended up giving me a refund as a “one time courtesy”, but I was told they would never extend that courtesy again. Simply ridiculous. UberEats should always default to your current location, or at least verify your address is correct when placing the order. I realize the mistake was my own, but why am I seeing menus from restaurants in another state when I open UberEats ??? Please fix this....

I understand the frustration with ordering & waiting for food and then there’s something missing! However, most of the time, missing items are not the Uber driver’s fault. The driver’s app is limited in what is displayed regarding the customer’s order and sometimes drinks do not even show up. The restaurant workers, who have full access to the order details, will often prepare the order and seal it or tie it up by the time the driver comes to pick it up and we’re basically going on their word that the order is complete. And over time we learn to ask if there are any drinks with the order because the driver’s app often leaves them off and the restaurant workers might forget. Sometimes there is a long wait at the restaurant to pick up the order because the customer’s food is not ready and some drivers might cancel due to excessive wait times because they are losing money while waiting 20 minutes for a customer’s order to be prepared (and that is a very patient driver!). I cannot speak on the technological issues on the customer’s end, but drivers have their own share. However, I can say that Uber is constantly making updates and improvements on the drivers’ end. As with anything, there will be issues, but overall, Uber is doing a great job at resolving the ongoing problems with UberEats .

please dont use uber eat. Usless deliver driver. Ive order from leytonstone mcdonald avnt recieve my food call costomer service they wont give money back.. Even when you recieve your meat it chips cold burger saggy.

Very good tracking device to find out the wrong address where your food is being delivered. Although the takeaway was informed and the driver was informed that they had the wrong address they still delivered the meal to the wrong address. Had to intercept the driver and take the meal off him. I suppose it could be good for the diet!!!!

App is not opening on my Iphone. I have no idea why.
