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👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@dennishuffstutler9820 yeah, it definitely is a great benefit. It just sucks that it used to be locked in for the month, but it’s not like DoorDash will ever revert.
I went broke getting to platinum, now my broke empty tank vehicle can't even keep me warm anymore, the outcome of trying to make platinum was $8.50 an hour
I realized that if you accept long distance orders and low pay the algorithm will keep sending that kind of offer . It thinks you will do it so they offer that to you first .
@@AlexShinn They like, let’s give this person crap and see if we can keep feeding him crap . Once they get you , you will get fed crap until denying it. Then you won’t get nothing.
Cool video man. I looked over at my lady & was like why am I watching this guy door dash rn lol. Very interesting stuff though thanks for the quality upload!
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.
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.
I think it’s good. There’s always going to be someone in the world that it’s just never enough. It’s all about them, and unfortunately.. that’s not how the world works. It’s good for what it is, but it cannot be good throughout the entirety of your shift 24/7/365. That’s just unrealistic if you ask me. If you have been getting a dollar per mile for the past hour or two.. why are we crying about having to decline a 4 dollar 6 mile offer? The past 2 hours have paid, so just decline, and keep it moving. That’s how I see it, but I’m a simple man, and I live a pretty peaceful and simple life.
You mention that you picked up from Pasta Di Guy. I interviewed him at the Orange County Convention Center and its on my 2nd channel Do Beverage and on my 1st channel Mico The Entrepreneur.
I’ve been planning for a week and I haven’t seen a $10 order yet everything is six dollars and seven dollars. This is ridiculous don’t care about platinum.
Yeah, it's a horrible scam to keep a lot of drivers on the road to keep their deliveries going out. I gave up on it because DD doesn't pay enough per mile and 9/10 customers don't tip and expect you to double dash for them for free. Nope... For what you are doing, you should be making triple what you get paid to compensate for gas and miles on your car. They rely on the drivers that keep holding on to hope that one day it's going to get better, then you get trash order after trash order with no tip for days on end at the oh-so-great "Platinum" Status. People no more care about tipping drivers than to fly to the moon and I end up paying to drive some of these orders out to these bum garbage human beings. Nope... got better things to do and am way too smart to keep doing this dumb shit. I expect to get paid for services rendered and do not work for free... because everything DoorDash pays pretty much goes right back into your gas tank. It's a racket for Door Dash and they are using drivers in the worst way... Naa, I'll just rely on my day job.
Um I got to platinum fairly easy honestly when I first I didn’t even pay attention to the ratings but the ratings chain is different for every state I’m in la ca so it’s volume like crazy and a ton of places to shop and delivery from
After three weeks they finally approved my catering bags. Absolutely furious they gave me the runaround every time I called. Ran into a couple who had a catering order and they said they only get like 2 a week anyway. And the one they had was only paying $18.50. Hardly seems worth it
Bro you live in a garbage area…it’s doesn’t matter if you’re Platinum or not. Location, Location, Location, Location… Now when you have platinum in the tri-state area (my market is NJ close to NYC) even the non-status driver get bangers because there are sooo many restaurants it’s insane.
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
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
@@tomn9097it definitely will hurt your rating. I've tried it several times and each time it hurt..smh.. I now multi-out several apps so I care less now
It still affected mine! I don’t think that works and like someone else said…you risk losing a decent order that might come in while you are waiting to “time out” the offer!

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.

It’s almost like getting punished to do a good job 😂

try spark driver for walmart i just got in it could be good in between your dashes
I have it! I bounce between that, DoorDash, and Flex mostly now. Other apps fill in here and there

I agree, I dash in Fort Wayne Indiana also and I feel I make less trying so hard for platinum
Oh sick! That’s wack but also relieving that I’m not just insane lol
I use to live indy, nice to see your vlog man
Thanks man! And Sweet! Got some good friends in Indy, fun place to visit
Also, if it helps, I put in that I "lost" my red card. Not just toggled it off. I have not gotten one in over a year!
I had the same experience and lost my status. I gotten take all orders to get back there
One thing I noticed they are paying you good but sending you far away
Sure seems like you don’t get much down time, one after the other orders!
I’m working my way to platinum to see if it makes a difference in my area. I can’t remember the last time I was platinum lol
I’m a platinum too here in California it’s hard to maintain that AR up lol keep up the grind
Yeah, the 100 revolving seems to have gotten easier. But right now I’m hovering right at 70% and it sucks having to take a $4 9mile offer

@@AlexShinn yeah my town is only like 6K people. Today I headed to a zone with nobody scheduled, but I got orders in my zone before I got there.
Have you done any follow up videos with platinum?
Making the changes you talked about in the end.
@@julissag4474 I’m recording that video today actually!
@@AlexShinn perfect!
You dnt get many catering orders once in program

Awesome! I’ll have to give it a look
I’ve been planning for a week and I haven’t seen a $10 order yet everything is six dollars and seven dollars. This is ridiculous don’t care about platinum.
I think I’ve seen more “high paying offers” below silver than I have in my time in platinum
almost stealing a car is crazzyy. Also, I just diable my red card (report as lost) to get rid of the shop and pay
Lmaooo, yeah, i did end up doing that. They sent me another anyway 🙃 but i don’t think I’ve seen another since 🤞
Turned off shop and pay also! If I wanted to do that, I would have never quit Instacart.
7 bucks for 2 miles is amazing. You just need 3 of them to = 21bucks for 6 miles.
Also, dd can't help who orders and where they live

Platinum give you the QUICK orders sometimes, so you can average around $20-$30 . They usually take 10-15 mins to do
Um I got to platinum fairly easy honestly when I first I didn’t even pay attention to the ratings but the ratings chain is different for every state I’m in la ca so it’s volume like crazy and a ton of places to shop and delivery from

Now when you have platinum in the tri-state area (my market is NJ close to NYC) even the non-status driver get bangers because there are sooo many restaurants it’s insane.
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.
@@BajaXP it’s actually insane to me the things they pull
I think platinum just means you get to see the offer before anyone else.... So you get first dibs on orders; good and bad. 🤷♂️

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