I haven’t had anything that bad, but stopped using them due to drivers accepting orders then driving a long way out of the way then getting to me an hour late

My guess is they are accepting orders on multiple apps then spending their sweet ass time picking up from multiple locations before delivering

They don’t have real support anymore either, not worth the money

I had a guy get lost driving from half a block down on the same street. Yes, it was lazy of me not to go get it myself but still ridiculous that he got lost.

Many many reasons why I do not use those services anymore.

I had that happen. App said it'd be about 30 minutes for delivery. 2 hours later and a lot of chatting with "support" the driver finally came with a cold and wrong order. That was the last time I used a delivery app. We used to have some decent ones, but as with everything else it has turned to shit. Now it's easier, faster and cheaper to just pick it up myself.
