I accepted an order over the weekend without checking the distance. It was for one item which wasn't bad, but I drove from Livonia to the border of Farmington Hills where Commerce begins. The pay wasn't bad, I just wasn't mentally ready to drive that far. lol
We need to ask them to remove the opinion to remove tips.. I took an order with $7 tips and after the orders off the customer went back and removed it even though it was on time and they got everything so we should come together and ask them to remove that opinion
Removing tips should never be allowed unless you have some type of proof the driver did something shady to your stuff like throwing it or breaking stuff. But there needs to be some type of proof and a appeal process for the driver. Cuz they shouldn't be able to just take it away with no excuses even with on time delivery and nothing missing.
In my area, they’re holding the orders and batching them up together for the lowest amount of pay and releasing them during rush hour when it’s traffic and schools are out.
So true, my area they are doing the same thing. Don’t make no sense what they are doing with these orders, holding them to batch together for a cheaper price.
I'm in the green all across the board in my metrics and last weekend everything that came in was trash. High miles, low pay, no tip listed, not many orders coming in to me, etc. I did take what ever but I literally had to stay out all day just to make a few bucks. Orders have been coming in slower and slower to the point I thought something was wrong with my phone lol. Hopefully things pick up since Christmas is right around the corner.
Same here, Large orders to apartments are usually families on food stamps. Some elderly with common since will tip you in cash. But most young people won't come to the door at all but be peeking out the blinds watching a 60 year old carry 40 packs of water and get out of breath. Then you have some on disability that ask you to bring it inside ( which we are not supposed to do) if they are in a wheelchair, I definitely take it in out of pure human kindness. but they are on there laptop and tell you they just added a tip. You never see that. ?
A tip i don't really see mentioned or maybe i've missed them, watch what you eat. You cant be out there eating bean burritos, chasing it with coffee. Or snacking on Takis while taking orders. You will have the bubble guts and spend more time blowing up the wal-mart bathrooms than doing orders.
Metrics mean nothing, pick and choose the order you want KNOW YOUR WORTH!!! Walmart has way too many customers who are non tipping, not enough good orders to go around to everyone with nice shiny green metrics,
Shop and delivers always make my app glitch and I get errors when scanning items. Makes the process so inefficient and it drives me crazy! Spark can never leave us in peace.
Yes it’s been crazy here too we just taking whatever we can get and the apt orders been doing us dirty with these 3rd floor walk ups in slippery snow 😩 great video as always 💪🏼💪🏼 Yea we had tropical smoothie for the first time the other day and it was 🔥🔥🔥
Seee that’s what I don’t like! Spark treats us so good then out of nowhere does us dirty!!!! SMH not 3rd floor walk ups 😖. What smoothie did y’all try? Thanks for watching ☺️
Currently doing spark. Do you ever experience any glitches? Or Walmart associates taking over an hour to provide you with an order or saying that they don’t have an order in our system. Spark customer service sucks
Regarding whether it’s a house or apartment, drivers mark it at the end of the order and it’s automatically placed for the next driver to know. If drivers don’t mark it, the next driver won’t know.
I'm a new Spark driver and so far my experience has been an absolute nightmare twice I was sent 10 miles the opposite way by the in app navigation I watch other drivers come and go while sitting in the parking lot and not getting any orders. I mainly do door dash which is much more profitable in my area anyway.
I always have Uber and DD running in the background so I am making some sort of money in between that are close to the stores. If I’m not moving, I’m not making money.
I've also had the spinning wheel. I think it's when my phone is trying to connect to WM WiFi. I started turning off WiFi when doing Spark and have had no further spinning wheel issues (and the app seems to work better as well). Thanks for the video (today was a crappy day for orders in Alabama... hopefully tomorrow will be better. :)
I let my AR drop once to 32% and they sent me all kinds of crap orders, never again. I keep mine in the 80’s and the orders are much better. I save the rejects for third floor water orders.
Waiting time in Miami is 30 minutes to 2 hours. So those offers are not worth it at all. Then you have to deliver. Terrible terrible here. I believe we need to contact the FTC and complain about it. But the most important is how they manipulate the system and cancel good offers from drivers. So that they can assign it to their favorite group of drivers and family members and keep the highest offers for themselves to actually deliver cause they are in the apps themselves. FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW... WALMART/SAM'S EMPLOYEES ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE DELIVERY DRIVING FOR SPARK AS IT IS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. I NEED AN ATTORNEY FIRM TO START A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST WALMART AND THEIR EMPLOYEES FOR STEALING FROM THE LEGAL DRIVERS OF SPARK AND FRAUDULENT BEHAVIORS IN MANIPULATING THE SPARK APPS AND OTHER APPS.
I hate that wheel of death. And definitely need to do something with allowing them to remove a tip I have never been late on an order am always polite but I had a 10 dollar tip turn to a 1 dollar tip...
My app started to show “ House “ and “ Apartment “ besides the address. And I avoid big case of water and 2nd floor and up apartment unless it’s very small items order. It’s Not worth damaging my back. I am beginner for Spark and enjoy your videos! ❤
I love that they updated that, so we can know going it where we are delivering to. I’m with you no carrying cases of water up stairs for me either lol thanks so much for watching
6 bucks for 15 miles. Yesterday i thought i was having a bad day woth spark. I couldnt get any good orders but i woke up the next day to a 50 dolla incentive which brought me to 180 for the day oh ya
the title made it seem like all orders, good or bad would be accepted. But orders were cherry picked at at least $2 per mile and there was a cancelation as well. Love the vids though, good job.
It will depend but if it has an apartment number or unit number that’s a good indicator. Also the number could help tell you which floor for explain it might say 1600 westward st. #304 (this could mean it’s an apartment on the 3rd floor.) I know all apartments are different
I think they do that when they have high order volumes so maybe it’s over saturated with workers and so the orders just aren’t there to take, at least that what seems to happen in my market
@@LifeWithLei thanks Lei for sharing your knowledge to us, I know that I’ve been looking for ways to make more money and understand how spark works, I’ve read all of the do s and don’t but until you get into it and actually make a delivery you then it starts to sink in on how to work spark to your advantage. So thanks again.❤️
I just received my first Walmart food delivery .I paid $7.95 to have the young guy deliver it. I had to do some research. I found out he makes $15 an hour( The new minimal wage). O well, I guess that's good.....
i tried to sign up for spark when i go log in they said cant find my account to finish my app want let me driver or pickup right now guess have redo it so i signed up for instacart on waiting list i do doordash uber right now . they get much as spark try getting another app to make money not set
What’s the worst order you’ve gotten so far?
I accepted an order over the weekend without checking the distance. It was for one item which wasn't bad, but I drove from Livonia to the border of Farmington Hills where Commerce begins. The pay wasn't bad, I just wasn't mentally ready to drive that far. lol
1 mile, NINE 40 packs of WATER going to the THIRD floor. Yup! I'm a dummy. Haha!!
@@trinnytron I accepted an order with 11 cases of water going to the 11th floor. I quickly dropped that order.
@@NikkiNiNiNi My goodness!! What was the payout?? Just wondering. My order paid $30 and I had help, fortunately.
@@trinnytron I can’t remember the he exact amount but I know it was no more than $30.

People are horrible how dare they take ur tip back.
Happened to me too many times its annoying tip baiting us 😢
Right! That's not fair to us at all.

But there needs to be some type of proof and a appeal process for the driver. Cuz they shouldn't be able to just take it away with no excuses even with on time delivery and nothing missing.
Spark is probably taking the tip..
Some days we win some days we lose. As long as we live to spark another day !! Lol
😂😂 you right! But seems like I been losing a little too much lol thanks for watching
@@LifeWithLei No problem! And girl I took 11 offers yesterday. That was definitely my record.
You have the best Spark videos to me. Keep up the great work.
Awwww thank you so much!! ☺️

KNOW YOUR WORTH!!!
Walmart has way too many customers who are non tipping, not enough good orders to go around to everyone with nice shiny green metrics,
Yess literally had an offer for 16 dollars I waited and got a 54 dollar one 🙌🏾
Walmart shoppers are typically budget shoppers and not people who tip.
Shop and delivers always make my app glitch and I get errors when scanning items. Makes the process so inefficient and it drives me crazy! Spark can never leave us in peace.

I always have Uber and DD running in the background so I am making some sort of money in between that are close to the stores. If I’m not moving, I’m not making money.
Spark was good for me solo for a while but I think it’s time I get back on DoorDash. Thanks for watching
@@LifeWithLei of course. Your videos helped while I was waiting to be approved for Spark. Thank you!
Sundays are the absolute best. I do a few in the mornings before church and start back after church until abt 9. Ive made $200 on a Sunday.
I've also had the spinning wheel. I think it's when my phone is trying to connect to WM WiFi. I started turning off WiFi when doing Spark and have had no further spinning wheel issues (and the app seems to work better as well). Thanks for the video (today was a crappy day for orders in Alabama... hopefully tomorrow will be better. :)
These orders are terrible!!2 orders $14 for 8 miles. 1 order $14 for 10 miles. No tips!!!! I can't wait to get out of January.
I prefer batch orders. I can’t do those 3rd and fourth floors with cases of water. No tips for all the work.
Another great Video!!! I felt your pain with the last order .
Thank you! It was a rough day lol
I let my AR drop once to 32% and they sent me all kinds of crap orders, never again. I keep mine in the 80’s and the orders are much better. I save the rejects for third floor water orders.
😂😂 I feel you! I’m working on getting mine up cause it’s super low
My acceptance is currently 6% and I still get plenty of good offers.
In my location there is one store that is never ready on time even when it says ready. 1-2 hours behind.

100% AGREE
lucky you're not in Minnesota working on your phone while you're in traffic, can be costly.
Anyone experience bullying or intimidation from other Spark drivers when working at a new location?
Thank you sooo much you explained it better then everyone else’s
I hate that wheel of death. And definitely need to do something with allowing them to remove a tip I have never been late on an order am always polite but I had a 10 dollar tip turn to a 1 dollar tip...
Yeah it’s crazy I’m starting to think it’s Walmart taking our tips but it’s wild
One thing I can see bringing us all down is the danger of texting and driving
...and the peons who call it out.
True, not very safe
I find myself taking screenshots to find the customers house sometimes when the app doesn't work. I shouldn't have to do that.
My app started to show “ House “ and “ Apartment “ besides the address.
And I avoid big case of water and 2nd floor and up apartment unless it’s very small items order. It’s Not worth damaging my back.

I love that they updated that, so we can know going it where we are delivering to. I’m with you no carrying cases of water up stairs for me either lol thanks so much for watching
Does it show after you accept the order or right away? I havent seen this on mine yet
6 bucks for 15 miles. Yesterday i thought i was having a bad day woth spark. I couldnt get any good orders but i woke up the next day to a 50 dolla incentive which brought me to 180 for the day oh ya
You should show how you do the check out for shop orders because the first time I did it I messed it up real bad
Ok next time I do a shop and deliver I will do that.
Oooooh, we have a Tropical Smoothie too. What flavor do you suggest????
Bahama mama is my favorite
@@LifeWithLei Yummmm you've "influenced" me to purchase one tomorrow while I'm "working". Thank youuu!
24 hours is too long for them to remove tip. We should get that automatically
If I’m by myself and not with my granddaughter I don’t take apartments so the information on the site would be helpful.
Is spark delivery like DoorDash ? Does the customer tips and payment go through before you pick up the order and deliver?
That's so sweet of you to take one (or really multiple) for the team with the reject orders 😉🤣
😂😂😂 hey I’m a team player lol
It’s been like that here! What is going on?
No idea! One day it will be good and another it’s trash. Hopefully we can get some consistency
the title made it seem like all orders, good or bad would be accepted. But orders were cherry picked at at least $2 per mile and there was a cancelation as well. Love the vids though, good job.
I thought you said in previous videos that acceptance rate doesn’t matter smh
I wonder if you can leave a card?
How do you pay for Shopping items?
Just got a 53 miles batch of 8 for $37. I dropped it and told them about themselves. Sad sad sad.
That’s crazy!
I was having same issue bro but all thanks to Spark_Techz who was able to got mine fixed with the help of bot grabbers I earn enough money now

Did anyone have trouble getting the W9 form to load???😢
How do you tell if it’s an apartment order and what floor it’s on?
It will depend but if it has an apartment number or unit number that’s a good indicator. Also the number could help tell you which floor for explain it might say 1600 westward st. #304 (this could mean it’s an apartment on the 3rd floor.) I know all apartments are different
It shows you the address.
I never get anything over 20.00. Why is this? I even switched locations
I was having same issue bro but all thanks to Spark_Techz who was able to got mine fixed with the help of bot grabbers I earn enough money now
He's on IG
@@Lyftcracksupport what does that have to do with it
Both grabbers I earn $600 in 5 hours
All thanks to Spark_Techz
do u decline or just let it expire if you don't want it?
Expire
Expire
It honestly doesn’t matter because the acceptance rate goes down either way.
I stopped caring. I’m not gonna accept an order that isn’t reasonable.
@@lexxt9710 same, they not bout to bully me into taking trash orders.
Does anyone know why spark gives you-incentives but then they don’t give you any orders to make the incentive… what’s up with that?
I think they do that when they have high order volumes so maybe it’s over saturated with workers and so the orders just aren’t there to take, at least that what seems to happen in my market

Is Walmart spark worth it??
It is definitely worth it, there are days that are slow but its worth it.
@@LifeWithLei gotcha, I wasn’t sure at the time because I heard some bad things you guys experiences with wait times and customers tip baiting you.
Depends on the Walmart
yo did your GPS answer you? 1:50

Yeah just be tolerate with it lol
