Overall terrible

Honestly, I tend to put up with the constant incorrect orders and burnt food, but since postmates stopped reimbursing me for bad business I hate this service. The drivers are late and don’t read the instructions before hand. The original estimated time will be one thing and I’ll receive it HOURS later. That wouldn’t be an issue if they’d allow you to cancel the order, but they still figure it’s good business to charge you full price (and sometimes a cancellation fee) for THEIR drivers being late and me not being able to accept the food. I wish I could upload a picture from last experience. My food was so burnt that it was inedible. They told me it was against their policy to reimburse me, or even contact the restaurant for an unburnt item, which uber eats most definitely would have done. Sadly I now live too far to use their service because I definitely wouldn’t deal with Postmates otherwise. The time before that one of their drivers seemed to be under the influence and after an hour of circling my neighborhood “lost” she arrived crying and yelling at me saying that uber doesn’t pay her enough and calling me disrespectful because I asked that she call me after 30 minutes of being lost. I have screenshots of the texts she sent me before she arrived and after too. That was also something they did nothing about. This company is horrible with even worse customer service.

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.

Wouldn't recommend to New drivers, Or Customers

Just Like Uber eats, The Drivers Have Zero Respect but Here In Chicago, They are basically making us as customers Pay for their gas. I've ordered food from Postmates in the past and the drivers are completely Disrespectful, They dont leave their Vehicle, Its just A waste of resource to be honest. I've had to leave my apartment Just to Tell drivers to Get out and bring the order to my Door. Im a College student and I Can't sit here and leave my desk or my PC to Go and help someone follow clear directions. I dont tip any driver, Because to be honest, They dont deserve it, They are mad Disrespectful and have zero manners for the public, Uber needs to Start Deactivating Accounts that wont follow Guidelines. I also been a Driver for both platforms, and The Continuous mistakes They make with app errors, GPS Problems, and the Cashout portion is just sad. Not to mention Customers LIE a ton saying they never received their orders so now to ensure that this Isnt said, I catch them(And have caught a few on video), Cancel the order after they got it and Say that they never got it. Its sad. Customers and some drivers need to start being held On Consequences Because this is Getting out of hand with the amount of Lies going around Via Drivers and Customers. I now wear Gopro's to ensure I'm Covering myself when delivering. Its sad people are evil to Lie when we have other jobs and we do this as a Graditude to Soceity

I NEVER get what I ordered

Twice I have used the app to order food. Both times, my delivery was incorrect. The first time, the drink was visibly incorrect as it was a fountain drink vs a freeze, also a taco, and nachos were missing. Major fail on the entire order, and it should have been simple. It wasn’t that large, because I was charged a small order fee that was not refunded. I was using a promotional free delivery so at least I didn’t pay for that. I received a credit, not my money back and I don’t believe it was for the entire amount of missing items, I was so exhausted with the constant changing in rep replies, I just let it go. Attempt 2, an entire meal was missing from the order, and the quesadilla was burnt so bad, it was inedible. Is this their fault, no, but Taco Bell had I paid them directly would have replaced it. They credited me .59 cents for that, I have no idea where they got that amount. They refunded the missing meal, but I went to bed without dinner, I was exhausted and starving! This time I paid a delivery fee that they refuse to refund. The thing is, I paid for delivery of items you failed to deliver. Therefore the paid service was not rendered. It is poor business practice, and unethical to keep my money. Also, what good does the credit do me, when I’d now rather drive to get my items than deal with this again?
