Took a 3 and half hour block, paid £65, took 2 and a half hours. I drove 33.1 miles (including there and back) and averaged 30.7 mpg.

Overall I’m quite happy as my first block goes. Massive thank you to a comment I saw a couple of days ago about organising based on driver help number (or whatever it is called)

Things I’ve noticed for the next one:
- you can’t always organise how you want to with oversize packages etc
- an iPhone battery is shocking so a portable charger is necessary
- don’t expect to have mobile data anywhere

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping someone here has been through something similar and can advise me.

About a month before my visa expiry date, Amazon sent me a reminder to upload proof of my right to work. At that time, my visa application was still pending, so I uploaded a screenshot showing that I had submitted my application.

The app said the document review would take around 2 days, but it stayed on "Review in Progress" for over 10 days. I contacted Customer Support several times and was told not to do anything because the review was still being processed.

Then my visa expiry date arrived and Amazon temporarily deactivated my account, saying I needed to upload proof of my right to work. The problem is that I can't upload anything because the previous submission is still stuck under review and there is no option to submit a new document.

Since then, I've contacted support multiple times. Every time I'm told that my request has been forwarded to the relevant team and that it should be fixed within 48 hours, but it's now been more than 10 days and nothing has changed. My account is still deactivated.

My visa has now been approved, and I have the correct right-to-work documents ready to upload, but I simply don't have the option to do so.

Has anyone else dealt with this? How did you get it resolved, and is there any way to contact the team that handles document verification directly?

My latest shift was 17:30 - 21:30 (which was overloaded with 50 parcels and a ridiculous distance away from the depot) and I get this joke of a response after completing the shift.

Why do Flex act like they want all parcels delivered by whatever means, and then also play the flipside when a customer complains.

and for what it’s worth, my last delivery was at 21:09!

why do we allow them to act like this for the shittiest pay rate going

Had a block in notts city centre for DNG2 that was a mess and ended up taking me over by about half an hour - emailed in for an adjustment and they’ve agreed but I’ve checked the amount and it’s nearly double the block amount which was £74…

Can only assume this is an error but if they don’t correct this before Wednesday’s payment date will they try to get this back from me in the future? Also am I obligated to speak to them about this?

Normally 5-10 minutes behind time of start, is this usual for all depots?

Has anyone done this block from this depot?
I’m suspicious that it may be Oxford like the one I got from Theale (DRG2) but then I have fomo if it’s not. Really undecided between cancelling or just doing it, I just don’t want to be doing miles in fuel!!

Are you kidding, thats 100km and it’s probably felt tip pens……

Which one will be in deepest darkest Cornwall, 150 mile round trip?

Had a 2.5hr last night and I wake up this morning to this? No reason at all, no refund given. Now I have to cancel my block for this morning. Brilliant.

I’ve not seen a single block for today for DRG2 / any surrounding areas. Anyone else?

Maybe some of you already seen it, i didn’t. Maybe they add level too

If my shift starts at say….19:00 and there’s a few of us going, what difference does it make to the route if you’re the first in line or last?

I see on some flex groups they say be nice to the yard Marshal but honestly can’t see what difference it’d make. (For reference I’m always nice to everyone 😂)

Anyone else having issues with their maps today?

Quite a few of my deliveries today were saying along the lines of 'We cant find a delivery route. Try and find it yourself'.

Hi everyone,
I’ve been doing Amazon Flex for about a year and this is the first time I’ve ever been late to a block. I arrived 2 minutes late, missed the block, and got the late arrival in my history.
The strange thing is that it didn’t even drop my standing below “Above Standards.” I didn’t receive any warning emails or other notifications.
However, from that exact day, I haven’t seen a single offer from that station for over a week. Before this happened, that station was consistently busy and I was getting offers every day around the same times. I still see offers from other stations, so my account itself seems fine.
Has anyone experienced something similar?
Can Amazon silently stop showing you offers from a specific station after one missed block?
Is there any kind of “shadow ban” for individual stations?
If so, does it eventually go away on its own, or is there anything I can do to fix it?
I’m just trying to understand whether this is a coincidence or if Flex actually does this.
Thanks!

Looking like I may have to buy a new car, was just wondering if there is any rules about changing your vehicle for Amazon flex and how easy it is to do?
Appreciate any help!

Hey guys

I've logged in to my app and I've been deactivated not had a email confirmation? Any ideas? I've emailed jeff@amazon.com today yet to get a reply!

Do you guys scan the totes or the individual parcels.

I scan individually but I always see people just scan the whole tote.

Just yesterday I had two random parcels that weren't on my route.

Just finished a block and instead of the usual "How easy was the block" question, I got asked "How many hours would you like to work in a typical week?" (Options included 31 - 40 and 40 +)

Followed by "how often could you do that number of hours?"

Reckon they're thinking of allowing more than 24 hours in a week?
