So true! I quit a full-time job to do gig work full-time. It lasted for one year. I have been back to a W2 job since last October. And I am happy that I DO NOT have to chase the $$ every day and put that wear & tear on my car. I do other gig work from home part-time. I would not recommend counting on Spark full-time. It has become very sad!
@@themidwestexpress is it possible that AI is involved with these false deactivations? I don’t drive for Spark Driver. but I know DoorDash has an issue with this.
I drove spark for a while. It is tough to fight for a job that doesn't pay a lot. The freedom and flexibility is good but overall pay vs gas and vehicle maintenance is kind of a wash.
Ive been a contractor for a few companies and have seen this pattern before. Its a boom and bust cycle. Its one of the reasons that you have to diversify. Not just among apps but between jobs in general. They dont want worker to start feeling entitled. They just knock the pieces off the board game and reset the game with new rules in their favor leaving the other players to scramble and work against each other. Its not right but it is what it is. You just have to exploit the opportunity as best as you can knowing that at some point your going to have to change with the times.
Whats really messed up is when a company makes you sign a no competition clause so that you can only work for them and then they manipulate your earnings.
February 23rd, they claimed I was deactivated for interfering with or manipulating the apps functionality. I appealed and straight asked for proof, which there is none. They claimed that due to driver privacy, which is me, they can't share what they've found.
My sister was approved by Spark so she started delivering and did so for 1 day. Her account was deactivated the next day. She still has no answers as to why. She didn't even have time to do anything wrong and was deactivated.
You’re on point. I did Spark 12 hours a day for 1 year and I was deactivated today. For no apparent reason. So I’m hoping I’ll be appealed and accepted. I’ve done 1900 deliveries and I’m a 4.7 rated.
I got deactivated because a customer I shopped and delivered for claimed I consumed all or part of their items. Thankfully I wear a body cam and i drive with 2 dash cams so I mentioned this in my appeal. They told me 5-10 business days for a response. Hoping that it works in my favor, it took me years to finally be hired. I was only delivering 1 month. I hope that the lying customer gets what they deserve. They are lucky I’m not one to seek revenge.
2 big deactivation reasons: 1) don't deliver to the wrong address- if a customer turns you in and the photos shows the wrong house youre done. 2) Don't make deliveries if you have your infant/toddler in a car seat- associates are told to turn you in if they dispense to someone with kids in car seats
Spark did that to me last March trying to say my insurance was falsified. Took me 3 months to get reactivated. It was stupid. I keep a daily log of deliveries and proof even down to text messages to customer before a return.
The social security number is where it will get you. The system will flag a huge red box with an exclamation mark telling you it can't process your information.
I was deactivated just the other day, i had to update my car insurance, i was sending them pictures for 4 days and they kept rejecting the images, so i called them and they fix it., then i went to log on and was deactivated. Anyways sick of delivering other people's groceries, with the 2 oranges, and the app sending me to one side of the then to another then back to first side i was just at. Considering it was blessing, my car is thankfully too it gets a break from speed bumps and pot holes and all though miles and oil changes. I did three oil changes in a month.
That's why Walmart deals with us as independent contractors. They can get rid of any of us on a whim, and there's little to nothing legally we can do about it. They can always find other drivers. That's the price we pay for the freedom and flexibility of gig work.
People are saying to reapply but how is that possible? You can get a different phone number and use a different email but your background check requires information that you cannot change.
i got a speeding ticket last August & i wasnt delivering. my first ticket in 25 yrs. i got deactivated & tried to appeal multiple times to plead my case. i had high ratings with over 900 Spark deliveries. they dont give a damn. however, they let false drivers to use bots & other peoples accounts with multiple phones per driver which they still have yet to get under control. bs in spades.
I guess they can Deactivate the Fake Accounts of the Illegal Scammers.. but in actuality they don't even know who they really are.. as in their real names? 🤔 Crazy Times...thx for the Vid..
@@thomasnodine4072 I saw one of them today at the other Walmart I work take a Curbside order and not even bring his phone out to scan.. just gave the Driver Code and packed up the order.. probably bc it had a woman's name on the order.. thing is all the associates are like teenagers so probably not looking for confrontation with foreign folks in their 20s and 30s..
I've seen it myself and there are migrants now especially from Venezuela using other people's accounts. That's one of the reasons for the mass influx of drivers.
If they dont reactivate me in filing a class action suit and i have downloaded all emails and responses that have taken place before and up to the time and day they deactivated me
I have been deactivated from Walmart spark for two months now they say the decision was upheld The crazy part is they still send me notifications and I can still log into my driver inc account When I did the telephone arbitration interview they said I harassment from a customer but I never been a man two disrespect no one I don't even see no one when I do delivery honestly
Apparently they don't deactivate for inactivity. I haven't driven in over a year. I just updated my documentation and was ready to go in 5 min. Should be interesting to see what's changed.
😂 you can’t screw up an order and get deactivated if you don’t take an order to begin with. Well played,sir,well played. I haven’t delivered a Spark in over 2 month and I haven’t been deactivated either.
And I do believe it was due to my insurance about to expire. As it happened the same day I received a notification of it expiring. Uploaded the updated insurance, it was accepted and approved. Still nothing.
What needs to happen is ALL SPARK drivers need to come together & start a driver's union or some type of representation for drivers ! SPARK is to slow or don't respond quick enough to driver issues. This has to STOP ! who is the CEO of SPARK anyway ?? I can never get a top representative of SPARK. I have been banned from store #1083 in Jacksonville & they called the Sheriff on me & lied 3 different times so now If I come back on property I am trespassing & can be arrested all for doing my job !! Are you ready to hear why I am banned ? as of Toni team leader it's because I got out of my car !!! Yes I have to get out of my car to open my hatchback for them because its broken. This is the ridiculousness of what is going on all while people & illegals are working with multiple ID's using bots to steal orders, threating other drivers that this is their territory, Store mangers are stealing & delivering orders ( against SPARK policies Walmart employees are NOT allowed to work for SPARK) I am pissed !! because I have done nothing wrong or against policies & now I suffer in loss of earnings. The Walmart stores should not have this much power ! because it leads to abuse as I have just explained. This all started on 4/12/24 & as of 5/6/24 nothing has been resolved.
@@kristyfields900it’s a pain process, emailed notices@spark for prearbatration, gave them a letter of good standing from my insurance, called and emailed every other day, filed a Bbb complaint and emailed their CEO’s. Finally made it to someone with common sense that reactivated me.
I got denied just signing up. I guess I had one ticket hanging on for one more year. Now that it is all cleared up I have been trying to figure out my login info. and went through I do not know how many emails and phone calls. Finally today the email sent me the email I signed up with, which is old and I do not have access to, and also informed me I would not be able to drive on their platform and wishes me well on my future endeavors??? hehehe what?? So I sent one back to get the phone number updated at least so that I can get the password changed and maybe log in. At that point, I could maybe try an appeal process if there is one there?
I don’t do Spark Driver because I used to work in Walmart online grocery and I know how slow the process is. So I know everything is like behind the scenes..
Not to mention that Spark Driver services were hot garbage, underpaid, and putting out more restrictions like for example they cannot load their bags when they have a passenger in the car, and telling them to leave and only the driver can take all three deliveries to themselves. BS, unfair, and no wonder DoorDash, GrubHub, and UberEats have better services and pay than the unreliable services made by Walmart.
@themidwestexpress unfortunately I'm still waiting after mailing for arbitration. I did get an email from Adam Dodge, who is the senior safety and security team, saying he will look into it. I will be posting an update on Monday on my channel . Love the work you're doing, keeping us informed in the gig economy
@themidwestexpress it was a long tuff battle but I just couldn't accept being activated for doing nothing wrong. Adam Dodge is head of safety and security team that does the deactivation and reactivation. I have it on my channel all the contacts.
COVID era is over and many people are enjoying going out themselves and dining out and shopping. Like the old days. Not only that it is too expensive to order stuff online and then a tip on top of that. Sad but true. It should only be a side gig and part-time going forward.
Ha I know the pain. I got deactivated on roadie the other day over a return. Tried to say I didn't call them I'm like you can't make a return unless you call the app won't let you otherwise. Then tried to say I made a return by just riding by the house. I told them bs you can't make a return unless you want 5 minutes at least. Just want a reason to let ppl go smh.
@@Thecargohustler so have I been in plenty of different situations with having to make a return. That's why when it happened . With there ever changing reason why. just told me it's because they just wanted to make cuts.
You broke this down very well. Spark deactivated me this past December. Tried one appeal it was denied. Like you said had to swallow the L and find new ways.
I got deactivated…My wife was with me. I had to use the bathroom while waiting for the Walmart employee to bring my delivery out. So I entered Walmart to use the restroom and when I returned my wife who is in the passenger side said the lady came out b4 I made it back. An with that I was deactivated!!! BS
The way the metrics are set up, acceptance rate, on time arrival etc… it seems to me they want you committed to a full time driver. In my zone, unless you are in the Walmart parking lot you won’t get an order that’s decent. The only orders they send when one the road r the ones rejected by everyone else. 🤷♂️
thats good to know i am really starting to worry that our accounts are not safe.maybe it is a blessing to get deactivated so no one can make money under your name. can you image the irs bill
Hey John - Just curious if you have done any gig work for Amazon Flex. I assume you may not have any Amazon Flex distribution in your area as I have not noticed any videos from you on them. Have a great weekend!
Sorry for delayed response. I have always avoided any app that requires a schedule. However, as things tighten up... I may need to FLEX that plan. GET IT.... Flex. 😆 Thanks for being here
You'll put too many miles on your vehicle. I've was activated on flex 4 years ago and still haven't been removed from the platform even though I never accepted a shift. Lol. Why...wayyyy too many miles.
The managers have told the drivers they don't care about Bots they just care about orders being delivered😅 another thing people don't understand a store cannot deactivate you it has to come from spark they are separate😅 that's what I've been told from managers in Walmart
@@themidwestexpress there's a video of a girl filming on RUclips they can't deactivate you they had to call spark to get it done. And if you think they give a fuk about these Bots that everybody and their mother is using you're naive and ignorant there's people making videos all over RUclips that have talked to Walmart management they can do nothing about these Bots they don't give a shit it's an unfair world you either cheat with them or go broke
I been deactivated for almost two months i went threw the telephone arbitration interview and after i did that arbitration told me its not there call So i ended up getting a text from walmart saying After carefully reviewing your appeals and the extra information you provided, our decision firmly stands that your account will remain deactivated. The information does not support a reactivation of your account under the Terms of Use. The decision will remain in place unless new information can be provided in support of your appeal.
Interesting. I haven't driven for almost a month, and today I got the best incentive ever to do 5 deliveries and Walmart will cover the difference up to $100. Glad I have my retirement. I'm pretty much moving on to other things.
Fuck them sorry to say that.Deactivated for no reason really? They have people scamming ect…but yet some how they still getting away with it.Glad this isnt my full time job…people dont quit your full time job for this shit.Sorry but you see how they treat they’re driver is insane lol
Most of the deactivations are probably valid. Spark does not have contract violations the way doordash does but you best believe they're tracking your mistakes. Just because you do not hear about them does not mean its not happening in the background. Do your best to make as few mistakes as possible and you should be good.

In California, deactivating mass amounts of drivers releases Walmart's obligation to pay the health care stipend.

@@themidwestexpress there's a video of a girl filming on RUclips they can't deactivate you they had to call spark to get it done. And if you think they give a fuk about these Bots that everybody and their mother is using you're naive and ignorant there's people making videos all over RUclips that have talked to Walmart management they can do nothing about these Bots they don't give a shit it's an unfair world you either cheat with them or go broke
Exactly if the manager doesn’t like any of spark drivers he can report to spark and then they will deactivated account
Any store can report you for vehicle issues, smells, or delivery issues... true or not, and you will be gone.
The customers are very rude as well!!
Yup... they can suck at times.
So can u ever get back on
One step at a time. Appeal, arbitration and if all else fails... reapply under a new account.
@@themidwestexpress ok well currently don’t have this issue and hopefully I don’t we’ll just have to see
@@themidwestexpressyou have to get a whole new phone and phone number?
I got deactivated yesterday for no reason I did apeal hope they reactivated me again
Good luck, I was deactivated for intoxication and I don't even drink or use illegal drugs. I have been applying for appeals since October 2023
Good luck
Subbed!!!❤
Welcome 🙏
I been deactivated for almost two months i went threw the telephone arbitration interview and after i did that arbitration told me its not there call
So i ended up getting a text from walmart saying
After carefully reviewing your appeals and the extra information you provided, our decision firmly stands that your account will remain deactivated. The information does not support a reactivation of your account under the Terms of Use. The decision will remain in place unless new information can be provided in support of your appeal.
That’s what I received
Interesting. I haven't driven for almost a month, and today I got the best incentive ever to do 5 deliveries and Walmart will cover the difference up to $100. Glad I have my retirement. I'm pretty much moving on to other things.
That is awesome!
I did deactivate for no reason
Did it get resolved?
I just got deactivated I don’t do nothing wrong 😢
Fuck them sorry to say that.Deactivated for no reason really? They have people scamming ect…but yet some how they still getting away with it.Glad this isnt my full time job…people dont quit your full time job for this shit.Sorry but you see how they treat they’re driver is insane lol
No need to be sorry.💯
Most of the deactivations are probably valid. Spark does not have contract violations the way doordash does but you best believe they're tracking your mistakes. Just because you do not hear about them does not mean its not happening in the background. Do your best to make as few mistakes as possible and you should be good.
Yes, I think sometimes people go too fast and have forced errors.
Funny
I am happy to amuse. 😁
