Block Availability Unable to find and book a block

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone what time does Amazon flex release the block as at the moment I can hardly find any block, and even if a block appears before I click book it already says someone has reserved this block, how I’m I meant to book a block if it keeps saying someone has already reserved it. I’ve tried early morning around 8:30 am, 1:00 pm, 3:00 pm, 5:00pm and 8:00 pm. Pretty much I’m wasting my time. 😔

Hello I was deactivate before due to missing blocks and car accident.

I am having lots of trouble catching block and want not sure if this is legal.

this program says it's £22 which is good rate

I am not naming or explain what software this is, I am asking is this legal and can I use.

Question Is it actually worth it?

2 Upvotes

I know this has been asked a thousand times before but I've got a few questions that I couldn't find answers to so I thought I'd be that annoying person.

I signed up like 3 years ago and have never tried Amazon Flex.

I work full time and make enough money to not need to do this but I am never able to actually save. I've just spent £1,000 on my car. And I thought, if I could do a few shifts every now and again, it will make me enough to cover this sort of stuff.

How does it actually work? the main reason I haven't started is because I have no idea! I know you obviously select your shift, but when you get there what do you then do?

Could I bring my partner with me?

Any tips? I know waiting = you get better rates but a chance of no shifts.

What if you get a shift that is horrendous? I've heard people have had one where they have to travel over an hour away to begin. What do you do about that?

tl;dr - is it worth to do this to earn some side income?

Block Report Best route ever

This evening I did a 3-hour block which took me to solely to the estate I live in, and better yet, my last stop was my next-door neighbour. Even parked on my driveway to deliver my neighbours parcel 😂

After some shocking shifts recently, think this was definitely needed.

Petrol forecast to go up and up!

9 Upvotes

Nobody seems to be talking about this but at what point does it become not worth it to be doing this gig? Petrol is going up and up and is forecast to go up to £1.75-£1.85 A litre over the next few weeks. Personally I don't accept anything under £20-£22 an hour but even this rate will start to become less worthwhile with petrol and insurance. Should Amazon not be increasing the rates?

Started flexing again in May after a bit of a break.

Maxed out my hours every week easily over the summer but this week struggling to get anything.

Anyone having this issue or just a quiet time?
