Would love to hear suggestions on how you as a driver would feel most comfortable joining on with your statements, screenshots, audio recordings and other such evidence. The options are endless. I and others are happy to pitch in and help foot the bill for whatever we need.

We don't need a lawsuit. We need it on national news. They will either raise the pay and the quality of service, or people will simply turn away from it and force it to go under.
Good suggestion but if you think they are going ti walk away punishment free after stealing this much money from our economy I am going to have to strongly dissagree. Mark my words.
Too many words and too many people saying them, very little action. All I can do is tell people what I tell them, and I claim no more. If you have the means to fuck with DD, don't type about it, just do it. Myself and a million and one other people are watching.
Typical desperate shill type defense of blending in and then trying to marginalize, down play and discourage GROUP action. You seem happy to have me do it alone, i wonder why? Something about group action scares you to the core. Expect it.
I think we need some national coverage. I bet if the news heard that dashers were gathering across the country at a certain place and time (not to strike) to ban together in saying we have had enough that we could get some news coverage and let the public know what's going on and get more people with more evidence on board.
Yes great point. Like i have been saying we are going to take it off of this forum, away from these cuckster mods, and into the public view. It sure is fun seeing this forum build its own natural shill defense mechanism though. God bless you patriots.
Shills on the way so to any other driver feel free to remake this same thread in your own words! This has nothing to do with me or my ego YOU guys are badasses and honeybadgers and you deserve to be compensated!!!
Of course I would join a class action. DoorDash has misrepresented how payments are made to its drivers. Their videos say "you always get 100% of the tips". Their recruiters say "you always get 100% of the tips". Their website and help center say "you always get 100% of the tips". But that is demonstrably untrue. I know that I am not the only one with multiple screenshots and recordings of troubleshooting agents admitting that receiving a tip did not raise my pay above the "guaranteed pay". DoorDash recruiters show us this pay model:
(Total Pay) = (Guaranteed Pay) + (Boost)
I noticed immediately that "Tips" isn't in this equation. So I asked my 20-something recruiter if this was the model for Guaranteed Pay:
(Guaranteed Pay) = (Tip) + (As Needed) = $5.50
The little shit hurriedly insisted it was not. Troubleshooting agents say that it is not. But they tell me my payout from the customer is going down by the amount the customer tips me.
Maybe DoorDash thought they were being clever when they said you "keep 100% of your tips". I think this is a serious problem for them.
If we are sole proprieters, then we should expect that we will make at least what the app advertises for a trip before we make it. We deal with the customer, and DoorDash takes a cut. Fine. Here's the problem:
Our Guaranteed Pay is, in my region, $5.50 (by Contract)
[Suppose] We get to keep %100 of our tips
An order with no tip is advertised as $5.50 by the app.
A customer and an agent both say I received a tip on a delivery advertised on the app for $5.50, but my pay is still $5.50.
This is judged not to be an error and the agent is satisfied. This happens many times.
A delivery WITHOUT a tip can earn a driver the same as for a delivery WITH a tip (by 3,4,5)
Premise 2) cannot be true.
DoorDash takes drivers' tips.
Conclusion: I'm not a lawyer, but if this isn't fraud, it's something like it.
I am definitely alright with suing DoorDash.
- Premise 2) cannot be true.
Did they say "you get to keep 100% of your tips" or did they say "you get to keep 100% of your tips on top of the guaranteed rate"?
I'm not a lawyer
Good.
We agreed to no class action lawsuits in the user agreement.. which is legal. I’m not a shill, but just stating the facts. Run multiple apps at once and your problems will be solved. DoorDash should not be your only source of income..
I'd be hard pressed to say all the problems are solved with multiple apps. It just gives me options to move it from sweatshop to slightly less embarrassing.
