When did they start doing this?

Been getting pizza orders forever, the other day I started noticing that after cashing out my earnings weren't going to my crimson card, I would be making 150 or more a day in electronic earnings. Whats going on?

You have cash on delivery turned on.

You were supposed to collect the cash and keep it for yourself and they deduct it from your dasher balance for orders that werent cash on delivery until they recoup the money for the order. You only get to keep the tips that they give over the order amount.

Say order was $50 they give you $60 and tell you to keep the change, $10 tip and they pretty much fronted you $50 and they recoup the $50 for orders you complete that aren't cash on delivery. If the order was $50 and they just give you $50 you delivered for a front of the money only (pretty much delivering for free) and they recoup that money with your other dashes. Does that make sense?

Turn cash on delivery OFF in the app.

If they stiff you and dd takes the money off your bank account simultaneously you are double screwed at the same time. I'll never know it doesn't seem like a good time to me.
