I put an order in through Postmates for Smashburger for four different burgers and some fries. When the order arrived it was for four classic smash burgers, none of which I had ordered. What was worse is that one lunch was for a woman with celiac who could no longer eat her lunch and one was for a co-worker that did not eat red meat for religious reasons and was waiting on a turkey burger. Frustrated and highly embarrassed as I was buying for the whole office I tried to contact their customer support. Initially, they responded and gave me $7.00 back, not even a quarter of the disastrous order. Since then I have emailed their customer support center daily requesting a call from a live human being and there has been no response. I want everyone to know that this place has NO customer service, careless drivers, and NOT to order through them EVER.
I cannot count the number of issues I had with their support service! Missing items not reimbursed, never answered my claims etc etc. However this is the most expensive service among similar ones. Do not use it guys, you will have a lot of troubles with them
Stay the hell away from this app. My coworkers and I waited an hour for our food and received a confirmation email that our food was being prepared. After waiting outside the building for 20 minutes I emailed Postmates and they basically said sorry won't happen again and updated the arrival time to an hour later. Then, after I emailed them demanding a refund and saying this was unacceptable, they cancelled my order and all they would offer was a $3 credit. I am beyond furious. Never again!
If I could give a negative star I would probably give multiple negative stars. Postmates is a SCAM. They will take your money, never show up with the food and have no way for you to contact them. They just steal your money and laugh about it. ANY delivery service is better than this garbage scam.
I placed an order THREE HOURS ago. The restaurant said the food was ready 30 minutes after I ordered. My card has been charged, yet here I sit without any food. The policy clearly states that if I cancel my order, I will still be charged. At this point, now I know how this company makes their money. You charge customers for a product they will never receive, and after they wait several hours and cancel their order, you get your money and we get absolutely nothing. This business needs to be shut down.
There is no way to contact them with a question. We are all sitting here wondering where is our lunch. They emailed two different invoices -both have same foods items, but each has a different price. He is now 1 hour late. But we do see that they have charged our credit card.
Ordered empeñadas for pickup. Was charged $4.50 each and when I went to pick up the stores sells them for $2.99. I will never use this online order service again. Also when you order the photo showed 3 but you only get one.
Ordered $35 worth of food and tipped $5 with $2.9 in tax... and they charged me $54. Nice little hidden fees. Will not be using this service again.
The driver on the other hand was quick but not worth the $11 in hidden fees.
I will never use postmates again. I had a very rude and unsafe delivery person and reported him and found the company could care less. I am very worried this driver will come back to my house and stalk or damage something on my property. I do not feel the company takes responsibility or screens their delivery employees. There are other services for food delivery use them for your safety.
Please read the reply I left for Matt. Please everyone this company is a fraud. Use something else if it's available in your city. If not please drive like 5 minutes or whatever it is rather than using Postmates. I know that food delivery is a leisure for you customers but please keep in mind what I said..
I ordered a $50 breakfast from the breakfast club. When the food came, I had an empty sauce container like someone had eaten from it (just sitting on my food) the fruit looked like it was taken off of someone's plate with bite marks in it and my coffee cup was empty. After 5 back and forth emails, I was told sorry, we will refund your $1.60 never again with postmates. EVER
I paid cash at the location during pick up but my card was still charged. Since the transaction took 3 days to settle on my card they refuse to help in any way (they will only help you within 2 days of the order) and had the audacity to say they "hope they can make it up to me next time". They stole $50 from me, plain and simple. Beware they will rip you off and provide awful customer service!
I stopped ordering through this app a while back because something would always be wrong. Most drivers take their time with getting your food to you. Other times the driver will deliver it to the wrong address and won't communicate with you in order to get your food. Postmates will not give ua refund they will give you a credit to the app which is not helpful especially if you are not planning on using the app again. Stay away from this company
Worst experience today ever! I just found out that my pending charge was $101 for 2 bagels and a coffee! Total charge was $23 but it will take a few days before my money will be released! Totally INSANE!
My last 4 orders were changed without contacting me, the new order total forced 2 additional fees onto the total, not just the failure to get what you ordered. I know, 4 times, shame on me. Won't happen again.
One order we did awhile back the driver said delivered and it never was. This last driver left my order at the sign for the complex at the road and not to our door. All the service fees and delivery fees on top of your order costs and this is what these people do. Will save money and drive my butt down to get my own food instead of paying for this service and giving money to these disgusting drivers.
When they cancel it tales 5 days to get your money back and they play stupid. You can go in and do a pre-authorization reversal. I will NEVER use Postmates again! Rip off. They got $150 of my money for 5 days. I am left with $5 in my account to get food for my 3 kids. Horrible customer service too! Any chance i get i will be writing this review on every site. RIP OFF!
I tried Postmates for the first time a few days ago and it was a total nightmare. First, I had to struggle to find the restaurant. Then when I tried to place the order, there was this ridiculous process of creating an account, involving a progress icon that never stopped, and then a series of emails saying there was unusual activity on my account so it had been temporarily suspended. I persisted in trying to register and suddenly there was a message saying my order had been completed and I should expect my food within 55 minutes. Well, 55 minutes passed and no delivery, and none ever. So I submitted a complaint (after a lengthy search to find where), and then ensued another round of emails in which they ignored the software problems I had described and just said my credit card pending authorization would disappear in a few days, as if this was the main problem. The Postmates software is hopeless, and their support is no better.
I put in an order for about $73. They didn't ask for my phone number. I never got a confirmation email. Then an hour after they charged me I get a notice saying my order didn't go through. By now I'm really hungry and pissed off. I should have used Door Dash or Grub Hub.
I wished I had seen these reviews before I ever tried postmates. This company is horrible in all aspects. If you see this before you use them, runaway fast and never look back. Eventually they will rip you off! I promise one way or another.

Answer: I got charged twice instead of once. For my delivery now that they made a mistake and didn't take care of it I'll never use postmate ever again
Answer: They Don't answer you back until after 5 days so that they can say "Unfortunately we will not give you your money back because we only issues refunds if the claim is made in a timely manner" horrible company
Answer: Their app has all type of glitches and issues they did the very same to me I didn't even sign up for their free trial but I am now having to dispute a charge of 95.88 on my account. I was charged for orders I never got and also I reached out to them multiple times never got anything back. They actually put on the app that the order was resolved when I have never spoken to them this company is a fraud and I do not know why they are still in business! I'd say remove your card information.
