Don’t make a mistake on your order!
Be sure not to make a mistake on your order or choose the wrong payment method. I ordered food for a sleepover my son was having and needed to make a change to the payment method I used. Couldn’t find any way to do it. So I cancelled the order, literally 1 minute after submitting it. I received a message saying due to the inconvenience I was still going to be billed. I contacted customer service to explain I still wanted the food I just needed to change the payment method. She said I needed to click on the receipt for my order. However, I cancelled the order so soon after my order was made there was no receipt. I explained that since I was being charged anyway I still wanted the food. She then said other then placing another order, there was nothing she could do for me. What!?! What happened to the food the restaurant had already “prepared” and was being charged for?!? Wasn’t that the reason they gave me for not being able to cancel the order in the first place?!? She did say she would escalate the matter with a “service specialist” but that person didn’t contact me until 24 hours later. So now I am out the money for the order, never received the food, and ended up having to go to another restaurant anyway.Show lessUsually great
I use Postmates at least once a week on average and subscribe and ALWAYS tip drivers 20% plus and usually add Cash too just cause I know how hard this world is! But IM still very upset that about a month ago I ordered a pizza when I was out of town ( I have my location setting set to while using app because I don’t see the purpose of a delivery app knowing my exact location every minute of every day) when I got home LATE and exhausted from traveling I ordered supper and it was sent to a popular chain but in my previous location, I immediately received a notification that I was FAR from the delivery address and I canceled the order ( but was still billed) then reordered the exact same order from correct location and it was also Canceled!!! Both show canceled on my account but I was still charged for the first accidental order AND had to cook supper at 8-9pm after traveling ALL DAY! So, NOT happy about that! I feel like im a fair customer and try my best to be honest and fair to my clients this is something that I am very unhappy about having to pay an extra almost $83 this month on my credit card for a order that was canceled within minutes of placing the order!Show lessHorrible Service
The service is absolutely horrible for the cost. I don’t mind paying additional for priority service, but I expect the food to be delivered once its ready so that I can actually enjoy it. Granted, its never going to be as fresh or good as getting it right from the restaurant, but when the customer service doesn’t stand behind its service then its time to call it quits. Delivery times are just getting longer, and priority really means nothing. I had a driver text me saying I have your order, but I’m waiting on more to be ready before driving out, so its going to be longer before I actually starting heading to you. So guess what guaranteed cold food. You have to hope the order is right to begin with, because burnt, swapped, or just plain wrong items is fairly common. Trying to fix that with Customer Service is a joke. They just say, oh well it was delivered before the latest arrival time, which everyone know just keeps getting updated. Hey Postmates, how about this, get a real benchmark and use the first latest arrival time that’s posted when the order was placed and not just the one that keeps updating? Yeah, you’d go bankrupt in a heartbeat because the other day I had a 2 hour delayed delivery time and you guessed it the latest delivery time just kept getting updated. Finally time to delete this app and use any of the other delivery services out there, good thing there is plenty to choose from.Show less
