How often can you hit food apps?

I don't use them normally but it's nice to get a free fancy meal once in a while.
I did it twice with Uber eats and once with door dash.
How many times can I go on a blank account before they ban me?
I know nobody knows the exact numbers but anyone offer any experiences?

Which methods did you use for each one?

From personal experience!
The second Uber Eats arrived in Germany, I most of the time ordered there. Also, because I know that their refund policy is quite simple.
The best and easiest way is obviously to just request a partial-refund, if you use Uber Eats a lot you can easily refund half the order with methods like missing, wrong 2-3 orders behind each other.
After that the refund requests will be seen manually and once the rep sees you refund a lot they can just decline it. Btw. PayPal/CC chargeback does not work because they will add the funds to the next order. Only works if you plan to not use Uber Eats again.

I'm not sure if they ban accounts, they just decline and even then, after doing some legit orders the "limit" resets, and you can just do it again. I refund like 3 from 10 orders, it's safe and with the 2 for 1 Deals + Uber One (you pay 5$ no delivery fee) it's sometimes cheaper for me to order food then cooking myself lol.

If you want a 100% refund, probably works on every app, photoshop or cut a hair add/put in the food and make a picture. I used that when my missing/wrong item method fail's lmao.
Don't forget that these errors do happen a lot in the food industries, and to just look legit. Obviously, they will create notes once they see you request a refund for almost every order.

I did DNA for the first uber (full refund) and Food was undercooked for the second one (full refund) and for doordash (full refund).

I just don't want to get denied on a big order.
Wondering how many I can do before they start watching/declining.

Not good practice.

It falls on the driver failing to deliver your meal, which will Impact him/her on a personal level.

It doesn’t impact driver. I worked as a food delivery. Sometimes i ate the food i was supposed to deliver and told that i ve probably left the food at a wrong adress. Nothing bad happened.

So you can conclusively assure that "Uber drivers" will not be Impacted In any way, shape, or form with (repeated) claims for nonreceipt of goods/meals?

from experience I have some friends that told me they get affected with doordash, but Uber Eats doesn't care
I come from a relatively small town and back when the DNA claims were managed by a bot I did 100+ of them on the same 2 or 3 drivers and they never got any issue

At least in my country, couriers of the two most popular food delivery apps (wolt, bolt food) are not effected.
