DO NOT deliver for or get delivery service with Burpy. Heres just a few reasons why, not all but a few
As a contractor for this company since April 2016 my experience has gone from great to the worst company i have worked with. They withhold orders from shoppers they dont like, they dont appreciate the sacrifices and devotion given to them and instead of showing any appreciation for working 7 days/week morning till evening, making sure all orders were fulfilled. Even on days when i had planned on not working i would end up dropping everything to get their customers taken care of. But how is it every time i needed to take time off for routine oil changes or other personal errands id be told no other shopper available, so once again i would put this company 1st and me 2nd. And for over a year now they have shown me how much they appreciate my dedication and devotion...they would assign orders to those shoppers who work whenever they feel like it..which is never a holiday, never during terrible weather, but those shoppers would get orders when i would beg for orders. Dare i decline an order because i am unable to do it ....because they then penalize you for the next few days by them having orders withheld and not getting any orders. In fact I had to cancel a vacation last year due to them withholding orders and i was unable to make enough money prior to trip to have money for the trip. This company doesnt understand the importance of taking care of those who take care of them. My customer reveiws and rating show the exceptional service i provide their customers yet i am going broke begging for orders due to being discriminated against because one staff of theirs doesnt separate personal from professional and will assigns orders to their favorite shopper. discriminating against those who have been there again and again. they dont understand that professional ethics vs personal vindictive actions affect a business and the lasting impact of those actions. They have on many occassions stolen money from the only shopper available at the time of the order, (me) by coercing me to do orders which i had already declined because doing the order would have cost me money rather than earn money. However, I would be contacted by Burpy and theyd tell me if i would do the order they would increase the pay to 13 sometimes to 15. $10 is the pay for the last order they didnt pay me for. It was an order with less than 11 items, 10 items or less is a flat pay of $10. The address was 64 miles round trip and there was no tip on the order and this customer never adds or leaves a tip, which makes the pay to shop and deliver this order still $10 - Minus gas, minus mileage, minus wear and tear on vehicle. MINUS MY TIME. I told him I would do the order with the increased pay due to the fact if i had not then this order more than likely would be cancelled. Did they pay me the extra 5.00? No and this happens again and again. When i send messages telling them to pay me they dont even have the decency of replying nor their legal obligation of paying me whats owed to me. I NEVER GOT PAID for helping them out YET AGAIN and they thanked me by screwing me out of even more money they owe me. If you want to support a business who would rather lie to you than tell the truth, who will steal wages from you then this is the company to use. If you want to support a business who doesnt appreciate the hard work and exceptional service provided to their customers by a 4 year shopper, then by all means this is the company to use. If you want to support a business who doesnt have the decency to inform their contractors of them changing their payment source, causing them to not be paid for weeks compared to daily this is the company. If supporting a business who discriminates against their contractors for personal reasons then please choose this company. Its appalling the way those who have been there for this company again and again are valued at the rate of very little to not at all. Thanks Burpy....yall are terrible people and a terrible business.
