    The guy is right , ı just got that platinum title and it is way worse than %15 acceptance rate . After 25 delivery ı only saw one high paying order ( 1miles 4.50$ 😃 ) this is the biggest scam in gig work history . I am in south florida , Uber Eats is the real king . Dont belive any youtuber saying tier system is good , they getting paying for saying that👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    I stay platinum status mainly because of "Dash Now". That makes a huge difference in my market scheduling dashes it was like 4 or 5 days out.

    Platinum give you the QUICK orders sometimes, so you can average around $20-$30 . They usually take 10-15 mins to do

    I swear Platinum level is a psyc-ops....I hit PLatinum level last week. Same town as you. It it even hit in the middle of an order drop off. 1st 3 hrs was great. Then I got the WORST orders imaginable. Worse than when I was gold. Next day I was doing th emotning time. Sat in front of Starbucks and also NOT 1 order for there. Instead, just like you sent me to a lame shopping order. Last week they were even running a promo for $3 between 1:30 and 3 am. I sat in The Rally's downtown parking lot and did NOT get ONE order. When normally it trys to drag me there.

    I think platinum just means you get to see the offer before anyone else.... So you get first dibs on orders; good and bad. 🤷‍♂️

    • @AlexShinn
      @AlexShinn  Месяц назад +1

      The only language DoorDash uses about priority on orders is for high paying offers. So specifically $2+/mi. But, when offers have been sitting for a while because they’re so bad, DoorDash pushes those out to any driver, even platinum, and it makes it hard to maintain the AR

    All depends on area, if you’re in a small town, there may be NO drivers, so you’re going to see the same offers on platinum as silver because there’s nobody out there. It’ll let you schedule but if you keep the map open, it’ll get “busy” enough to dash now even without priority. The problem with the diamond status is -to give you high paying orders, a lot of times it’ll require long drive times. Hopefully they fix this on the algorithm and add back the reason we decline for consideration. I’m at 67% AR but going to get back to platinum just to have full access. Gold is pointless, silver or platinum.
    Also look at which schedules are open before you get platinum. If an area has a full open schedule. AR won’t matter as much, there’s nobody there.

      Yeah, my city is mid sized (over 250,000 population) but the hot zones are terrible. Like, I’m almost never getting a follow up offer on drop off, I have to drive back almost the whole way every time. Doesn’t help that it’s one giant blob of a zone. So DoorDash will send me 20 miles and I’ll still be in. Which is great if you don’t have dash now, but it terrible if you have to take 70% of offers.

    Doordash randomly turns on your red card and cash on delivery with a notice that dashers who have these settings on, tend to make more earnings.

    Don't decline the offer, just let it time out. Your acceptance rate doesn't get hit on every non-accept order.

    • @AlexShinn
      @AlexShinn  Месяц назад

      Yeah, it’s a rolling 100. Problem is it’s a gamble. If i wait for it to time out, a good order behind it might go to another dasher. But also if I wait it out, maybe another bad offer will go to another dasher and I’ll get a better one behind that one.
      Personally I don’t like waiting the extra ~minute every offer unless I’m multiapping
