Rotten Food, 9PM Delivery Several Hours Late After Midnight
Since 2020 I have relied on Amazon Fresh for groceries. They consistently have a terrible service, most times nothing goes according to plan. For example tonight I placed an order at 6PM and have been waiting for the order to arrive between a 9-10PM delivery window. They packed my order several hours ago, but the order never went out for delivery. Finally I called support to make sure everything was alright. They said they will “not have an update until 12:30 AM.” The customer service confirmed my cold groceries have been sitting in a driver’s car for several hours now, including eggs and cream. Not only have I missed dinner tonight, but all my fresh groceries are now spoiled. And I still have to wait for it all to be delivered - over 5 hours now and counting! Plus they are inconsiderate and do not care if my neighbors will be disrupted as they now plan to arrive in the middle of the night. My dog will be barking! The Amazon support agent was so robotic and just kept repeating “there’s been a delay.” They would not even cancel the order when I explained that it was all too much to deal with. So they expect me to sit here on my Saturday night and wait for spoiled groceries, and to call them back to “discuss the issue of the spoiled items,” after the order has arrived. It is infuriating. I plan to cancel my Amazon account after this. This is not the first time I have sworn to never order Amazon Fresh again, but I must remember how unprofessional this service is. Often they deliver fruits/vegetables that are not fresh and going bad. I have also had them deliver many items such as bread that are nearly expired. They did not even bother to notify me of the delay so that I could go get take out when restaurants were still open tonight. Breakfast will also now be spoiled for tomorrow and it has pretty much ruined the weekend. I am not always off on weekends, so this is especially disappointing to have so much sweet time wasted by Amazon. The opposite of “Fresh” and the opposite of convenient. I thought maybe it was just me with these constant issues, but I see their ratings are so low it really is Amazon.
