Deliveroo


Recommended Posts

They are slowly expanding by the looks of it. I'm sure they will get to lots of postcodes in the end. They are honest with their timings on the site. Last night at 8pm a Gowlett Pizza was going to take an hour to deliver. We went with a half hour Dominos instead. Wish we hadn't.

There was a gaggle of Deliveroo delivery riders sitting outside the closed cafe next to the Palmeston, a couple sitting astride their scooters at the end of Shawbury rd and one on the tarmac outside Farmers - like the heady old days of dispatch riders waiting for 'the call' - they must be expecting a busy night - doesn't look much fun for them though.

I (very very vaguely) know one of the founders. V smart New Yorker living in London. If your postcode isn't covered and you'd like to be I'd email them. https://deliveroo.co.uk/contact That's how they know where to expand to.

I had no idea they were down in our neck of the woods and delighted we can get Mama Lan dumplings and Honest Burgers!!

I've used them when I work late and they have always been brilliant.

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
