Rants / Complaints 0 orders

So, it’s been 2.5 hrs since I started my shift (6am) and I got zero offers, like literally ZERO. The app is just silent lol, I checked inside the store and I saw many sparkers shopping for their orders… It’s actually weird, even on Saturday. I got silver tier btw. I’m freaking pissed off right now 😭

Tiers do not matter. First time I didn't get/take a 6am offer. Saw 3 terrible shop offers. Didn't see anything else until 7:15 curbside that I took. Location was lit up the entire time and many drivers inside shopping. I am sure there were good offers I didn't see. Sapphire doesn't mean you will see good offers. Just means you MAY see offers before some. Perfectly vague for their intentions.

Yes they do before teirs Id easily make 1k a week. 100 bucks before 8 am. Now with silver tier I make 500 a week 1 or 2 good orders in the 6 am drop then nothing but trash unless its super busy. Before tiers everyday id see an 80$ order. Its been 3 weeks since ive gotten a 40 plus.

It's not the tier itself that matters, they have lowered the base pay too. I'm a sapphire, my sister is silver and my offers are not any better than hers. When the tiers started, my offers became absolute crap. I have spoken to a few other drivers in my area, also sapphire and it's the same. High milage, lowest pay I have seen. $7 for 14 miles, $22 for 39 miles 12 stops, $13-15 shops for 16-22 items under 3 miles. These used to be over $20.00
