SEing Food Delivery, the ethical way - colorado06 - 12-07-2020
I'm sure most of you know this already, but if you don't, lemme clue you in on this. With the pandemic going on, funds are a bit tight for me, and I've been honing my skills on SEing food delivery services lately. The biggest problem with food delivery services is that so many complaints can cause your delivery driver to get in trouble. So here are my ground rules:
1. TIP WELL! You're not actually going to be paying, so give a good ass tip! I usually do 30+%.
2. Make sure your reasoning for getting a refund is not ANYTHING that the driver could cause. Things like the food being cold, missing food, etc. are all things that the companies could pin on the driver. These people are trying to make a living, don't mess that up.
3. Only order from chains. If you're gonna SE, make sure that you're only screwing over large companies. Especially right now, local businesses are hurting.
Grubhub has been the easiest to SE for me. Saying there's a quality issue with how the food was prepared is the most surefire way. Hair in the food is an easy one. I just got a large order from Fiveguys by saying there was hair in the food. When speaking to the rep, be polite, but make sure to tell them how disgusted you were. Usually they'll just refund with no proof, but on larger orders they may ask for pictures. That's why I like saying hair is in it, because it's easy to take a couple strands and place them on the food.
If anyone else has some extra tips, I'd love to hear them!

i don't use Grubhub since we don't have it here BUT if your SE fails, reply saying that you'll no longer be using their services. ALWAYS works for me, seems like they take it to heart.

It's nice to read you've focused on not taking the SE on a personal level.
I too, am opposed to targeting personal entities, and have mentioned It many times In my blog.
Well done with the guide.

I like your hair method I’ll definitely have to try that. Another way to get it for free without hurting the dasher is pretending to be the dasher beat them to the restaurant pick up your order as a “dasher” then once you leave cancel the order. You will not need verification all you need to know is you name i.e John D. and what was on your order

Appreciate the praise. Been really enjoying the site so far. I burned the hell out of my address doing it, but I was getting ready to move so it didn't matter. Where I'm at now no one delivers though. But everyone beware, I was only able to get 5 refunds within a month time span on average from all the major apps before being blacklisted.

This Is a prime example of why I always recommend to allow a sufficient gap from one SE to the next.
