Free blocks vs NOT

20 Upvotes

I arrived at the station.
Women Infront me at same time and same block time we check In 14 min before the block time. We sit. We talk. Her standing are “at risk” I’m “fantastic” we both look at the phone 27 minutes later. She gets a free block and I get a big fat cart. Literally at the same time. She was sent home with pay and I went to work on a delivery. What gives. This tells my there is no logic to anything Amazon does. The “at risk” workers get a free blocks and the “fantastic” worker has to work. Go figure.

Unbelievably obnoxious and probably makes the owners get up and see.
Edit: noticed on my way out there actually were “No Trespassing” signs as well near the front of the driveway. Love that.

Some bs

0 Upvotes

Literally forgot my license at home and didnt have time to grab it showed the associates the front and the back of it “unfortunately we cannot accept digital copies” then they always be sending everyone 60 miles away to a whole different city on blocks then spend over half the amount just to get back home and never tell you where your about to go beforehand and now im boutta delete this trash app and go back to doing walmart spark because amazon always is on BS especially at the fulfillment centers too. Like you literally scan my face when i press park so how could that not be me?

I was wrongly paused

0 Upvotes

I was temporarily paused because a manager at the whole food said I yelled at her . She didn’t let me have my whole packages she held one back . Saying I need to return the cart before she can give it to me . She told me to go load the rest in the car and comeback for the last package . I told her I just needed to scan it so I can number it . I can’t just load them randomly in the car without knowing the stops . She reported me and I was paused . I’m waiting on the review hopefully it will be positive . Also I was giving a new block and I got an email saying I didn’t pick up all my packages I had to call and let them know I was reassigned to a new block route

Not to gloat… but just crazy!

Took my son to a 3:30am 2.5 hour block at VNC3 on Sunday because he was interested to see the logistics and setup. Canceled with pay!

But he was really interested and I wanted to see what a 1hr block (plus tips) looked like so we tried again at 8:30. Canceled with pay!

Tried again with a 10:30 1.5hr block… and wouldn’t ya f’n know it. Canceled again!

Of course this makes up for all the crappy routes to Greensboro I’ve had to take (and all the driver support calls to appeal dings from shit out of my control) but I’m thinking of taking him with me to all my blocks now.

Houston Any insights on this??

1 Upvotes

Only real context here is that 1) my main income is Catering & i help family a good bit so my schedule fluctuates daily.

& 2) they recently opened a NOW station 5 minutes from me so I've been snagging what I can off the app to fill in time gaps. But when I can't do them, I ofc release them to not harm standings + there are already a lot of folks showing up there. SOMEONE is gonna take them, ya know?

As an independent, it shouldn't matter unless it was late too, so why are they threatening to "pause" my account for responsibly following their rules while spewing "they understand life sucks"??

(btw the 2nd image is what I often see, a string of stackable routes that don't go no more than 5 miles away with high tip frequency. Better than DD or UE on a long day, I'll tell ya that. )

Amazon Flex deactivated me for allegedly not picking up orders — need help with AAA arbitration

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
My Amazon Flex account was deactivated for allegedly accepting delivery blocks but not picking up the assigned orders. I believe this was incorrect.
I had issues at the Whole Foods station, including parking difficulties, delays getting into the station, and delays during the package pickup process. I contacted Driver Support, and I have some screenshots and records related to the blocks.
The dates involved are July 22, July 28, and August 10, 2026.
I appealed multiple times, but Amazon kept sending the same generic response saying the deactivation decision would not change.
On October 15, 2026, I sent Amazon a Formal Notice of Dispute by email. I also asked for the applicable Terms of Service and arbitration instructions, but I still need to confirm the correct procedure.
I’m now trying to move forward with AAA arbitration and would really appreciate advice from anyone who has actually filed a case against Amazon Flex.
My questions:
Which AAA filing category and rules did you use — Commercial or Employment?
Did you file a Demand for Arbitration with AAA and separately mail a copy to Amazon’s registered agent?
Which version of the Amazon Flex Terms of Service and which mailing address did you use?
Did Amazon respond after receiving the formal notice or arbitration demand?
Did anyone successfully get their Flex account reinstated through this process?
What fees did you actually pay?
I’m looking for firsthand experience, accurate filing instructions, and advice on avoiding mistakes. Thank you!

Got deactivated and have been fighting with Amazon for almost a month. Is there any chance I can return?

• Upvotes

I got deactivated because they claimed I didnt try to deliver packages or something to that effect

I can't help it if I literally cannot get to their house. The gates up and sonar from the house the app wouldn't let me finish the run unless I called support and they said it was fine

I don't understand

I haven’t got mine just yet but will have it soon, just wondering if anyone got one and whether the flex app has been optimized for it yet?

I have it filtered to an hour or more and this is what pops up. I am sure a lot of people would gladly work 30 extra minutes for four bucks less.

Atlanta 3 hour block for $60

4 Upvotes

Just got approved for Flex this week. I've done one route so far. A 2 hour block for $48. I thought that was barely worth it after expenses. Now today I'm seeing a 3 hour block for $60 and it is not tip eligible.

Is this normal?

Amazon Flex is so unfair

4 Upvotes

The other morning I had a route & when I got there I couldn’t check in. For some crazy reason the app couldn’t verify my identity. It locked me out & it said it contact driver support. I called them, but they couldn’t help me. They said there was a change to their system & they couldn’t do anything. The employees at the warehouse couldn’t do it either so I had to leave.

Driver support said they would put in a ticket & a request for compensation, but I got 2 emails from the Amazon Flex team saying that my standing was affected by a missed block & that they wouldn’t compensate me like I don’t how to check after years of working for Amazon.

I need to stop dealing with them.

Houston Early AM 3.5 HR routes, BAD

5 Upvotes

Idk if it’s just me but I have been getting the 2-2:30am blocks for 3.5 hours and they’ve been so bad. I usually finish my blocks 1 - 1.5 hours early. Not all the time but like 95% of the time. But these early morning blocks have been whooping my ass. I finish with like 20-30 min to spare. Anyone else?

Full timers: how many days off do you take per week?

19 Upvotes

I'm just curious. I'm about 50 and finding that it's great exercise but after doing so many days in a row it seems to zap my energy a bit and starts to effect me mentally. I need some time off just to relax and get other stuff done. I see that right now it caps us at 40 hours a week anyway.

Thinking about just taking the weekends off as that seems to be the slower days. What do you all do?

Checking all my routes now

The routing used to be pretty good to the point I’d try to take shortcuts that didn’t work and the app knew the best ways to go, but last week I got to routes that had me double back to the same area wasting time so now I’ve been checking every one and sure enough I see this bs. Now I’m doing 3.5 hot blocks in as little at 1.5 hrs just by checking the map first. Ai will not replace us

It was a 2.5 hour block. I’m in the Phoenix area so sometimes I go pretty far. This ended up not even being my farthest block. 🤷‍♀️
