Favor: Texas Food Delivery 12+

Change my opinion after recent interactions

Update: the support team patiently see the situation over my two orders and assist me. I like my recent interaction with support….

Old Review:

I order a food from a restaurant, I noticed they reduced two times service fee, once in the restaurant receipt and once again in the app… which cause double service fee… after contacting customer service they first deny it… then when I sent the receipts they refund only 5$ for one order… and they telling me they don’t know where it’s coming from… in my opinion they clearly know and scam people in this way… and they didn’t refund me for the second time?!…. Horrible experience on delivery of my order today…. The driver can’t communicate in English and when he come to my door while I show my ID to his face and he can read it but he want to grab my id to his hand and didn’t give me my order while shouting on me in Spanish… then I contact support and they just said you won’t charge for this order?!! Horrible experience…. I ask support how you can guarantee if I pass over my ID to him he won’t take a picture from it and save it on his phone and used it for scam purposes they don’t have any answer

Developer Response ,

Hi! We truly appreciate you taking the time to deliver this feedback. Please know that we value you as a customer and will always strive to provide the best solution possible. I'm so glad we were able to get this matter resolved for you!

Very unfortunate! I truly wanted this app to work well!

I have been using this app for awhile now and it’s always hit or miss but I kept ordering from them because they used to always make the situation right if any issues happened. However, sadly, this has all changed. The recent situation I was victim to is fraud. Favor wouldn’t help correct the fraudulent charges on my transaction. You as a company cannot promote specific prices and then double them and charge customers for things they didn’t order. It’s clearly fraudulent charges that someone else put on my order in addition to what I ordered… and y’all are OK with not handling the situation? Someone actually told me that they wouldn’t correct the charges because I had other issues in my previous orders. So now I’m being penalized for the other issues Favor owned up to and fixed in previous orders? That’s some messed up logic. I will never be able to use this service again if you don’t make this right and continue to support blatant fraud. My suspicions and evidence is that the runners are doing fraudulent charges on my orders and keeping it for themselves. Your app clearly has an issue that needs to be resolved and it’s not coming from me. I shouldn’t have to fight to “get a refund” for some thing I didn’t even order. Please do the right thing. It’s not that much money but it’s the principle. I should only have to pay for the things that I actually ordered, your advertised fees and what tip I agree to. Period.

Nothing Special

If you live in a big city like Austin or Dallas etc I encourage you to use any other delivery app like door dash. I was very excited to see that the small town I live in was finally getting a food runner app and originally had no issues with it whatsoever. Over time this service has become frustrating and essentially useless. The app seems to have gotten harder and harder to navigate, half the time what i want isn’t even available to order and I have to text the runner with an entirely different order than what i put on the app if i actually want to get what i want. It seems that all of the runners in my area are just extremely unpleasant or never want to work. I understand that runners are usually doing this as a side gig and have full control over the orders they take but the last several times I’ve tried using this service i just watch my order get picked up and canceled multiple times over the course of an hour before finally giving up. If you live in a small town that offers Favor just bite the bullet and go get it yourself. It’ll be infinitely faster. I strongly suggest that y’all add a feature that lets customers know if there are active runners in their area or not so they don’t waste their time waiting for an order that’s never gonna get picked up. That or maybe just don’t offer a service in such small towns where it likely won’t be able to flourish. Pointless 😡
