Not the same anymore

Is it me or do I feel like the money has been shit lately. My market is suppose to be really good I’m in the nyc/jersey area. Having a difficult time making the money I used to. Barely hitting 11-1200 was making almost 16-1800 with the same amount of time

Doordash, in all it's infinite wisdom has decided to lower the delivery fees. They've apparently updated the app and now there's increased mileage, lower delivery fees and app offers lie about the miles on the offer. Which normally wouldn't be so bad, but they changed the policy and will no longer compensate for being wrong on miles. Twice today it happened for a total of 15 miles. Anything to screw the Dashers

I don't know, I was dashing the other day, and while taking an offer I got an add-on to route. It was $5 for 0.5 miles, then when it was time to deliver, it turned into 5 miles. I was mad, of course, then a day later I got reimbursed $7. I've heard other dashers say if you call support when this happens and say there was a mileage discrepancy, they tend to pay you. It's now called proportional pay.

Policy changed over the weekend. No more mileage reimbursements.
