Comment on DoorDash doesn't allow a tip of $10 because “The amount is higher than expected”parent

Comments

Wait, are you saying when I use "tip my dasher", that does not go to my delivery person?

I'd like to get this picture straight because I will never tip again if they are being stiffed...

It's word games. The delivery pay is normally, say, $10 without tips. If you tip $5, that goes to your delivery person, but they also reduce the delivery pay to $5. So in practice, DoorDash always pays the driver $10, and your tip is to the company, just with some sleight of hand for them to say "your tip is to the dasher"

I honestly can't comprehend the lunacy of this policy. This is very eye opening and incredibly deceptive.

I think this was revoked a year ago after a major outcry.

Still doesn't excuse them though.
