Grubhub - My picture

I had put all my information in and my bank account information, and the system was messing up. I took my picture like 3 times, and it kept saying it couldn't see me, but it's me.

I think it's wrong because now it's saying I can't drive for Grubhub because my picture wasn't working.

I have been on the waitlist for East St. Louis for over a year, and I think it's wrong they won't let me drive when it was their fault, not mine.

Grubhub - Delivery

I ordered from Wingsop on Grubhub, and they sent me a picture of food in front of a house that was not mine. I tried to order 3 times, and they canceled the order every time. I can only place an order for pickup; that's not my house.

Worst delivery and customer service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Updated by user Jan 17, 2026

Don't waste your breath! They don't help or return messages!

Original review Jan 01, 2026
If I could give negative 0 x 10, I would. Grubhub delivery driver delivered my food and never let me know it was delivered—no text, no knock on the door, nada!

Luckily, I checked after an hour of the time to be delivered, and it was sitting on my porch in the freezing cold, upside down. This was a $70 dinner completely wasted. I called customer service, and they said they couldn't do anything about it. Worst service ever!

Plus, it would be nice if the person on the other end spoke clear English. People, please don't waste your hard-earned money on this delivery service.

They didn't even care about who the delivery driver was. Learned an expensive lesson about this company.

Gouging Drivers and Laughable Support

Original review updated Nov 02, 2025

This is possibly the worst gig app of them all, and I have used Walmart Spark, DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub. The rates they offer to pay should be against the law, and in my opinion, apps like these were specifically designed not as a way for people to earn extra money, but as a way to take advantage of people who are struggling in life and having a difficult time.

They prey on people. People who have no other options because of various issues, myself included, because I left a domestic violence situation, was invited to stay with my aunt, who forgot to ask her boyfriend, so after I drove 2 states away, told me I can't stay there. Sadly, there are practically zero resources available for women in my situation. Don't believe the hype, the complete and total misinformation being presented that there is 'help available,' because that's far from the case.

How sad we have become as a nation when hard-working individuals can't even afford housing. The divide between the haves and the have-nots is only growing wider. If you have any type of issue during a trip, you can also expect ZERO SUPPORT. Imagine sitting on hold for a half hour when a recording comes on the line, thanks you for your patience for holding for 30 minutes and then apologizing that no one could be connected to assist you right now, and to try back at another time before DISCONNECTING THE LINE!

That's exactly what you can expect when you have been on hold for 30 minutes. Maybe if you hired support staff from the United States, ones that speak the language fluently, you would not have support calls that last so long because the driver can't understand what the F they are saying. Excuse my French, but why are you hiring people to support drivers who can't properly speak the language? Are the excessive hold times worth the money you are saving?

I know what you pay drivers, so I can only imagine what you must be paying these folks. Probably 50 cents an hour. Sadly, they probably do just fine on that wage because their housing doesn't cost over 2000 dollars for a studio! Make that make sense!

Update: So now I had to relocate and I am staying in a shelter while I try to rebuild my life.

As if everything Grubhub has put me through hasn't been enough, I learned that I have to go without ANY income for the next two weeks! Why? Because the fantastic customer service representative put in the wrong zip code when I was updating my account. It seems like a pretty easy fix to me, just put in the right zip code.

But to illustrate again, just how little they care about the people that keep them operating as a business, Grubhub is perfectly fine with making one of their drivers go without income for 2 weeks because they refuse to fix the error made by their first-rate talent pool.

If you can get by without me for 2 weeks, then I will just have to do the same. My days of getting ripped off by this corporation, and apps like it, are OVER!

Failed delivery

Grubhub doesn't care.

Original review Nov 28, 2025
I ordered a Thanksgiving Day meal for my cousin who is an invalid and has Frederickson's disease. The meal was not delivered.

I did not see the email that canceled this until that night. When I called, they said the restaurant Norms was unable to fulfill the order. When I called Norms, they said it is not true; they never received it. Now the fingers are pointing to both, but neither company wants to make this right.

I don't think your supervisor understands the significance of Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, when asked to make it right, they said they would give a $10 coupon. I asked that they should replace the meal. I am emotionally distraught that no one seems to care that the ball was dropped on this.

Now everyone in the family is mad at me. When I spent two hours trying to find a place that would deliver on Thanksgiving so he could enjoy the holiday because he can't leave the house. I don't think your supervisor saying, 'Oh, it was a POS issue with Norms,' is a satisfactory excuse. At the very least, a call should have been made.

I got a text. I got around 25 texts that day, and with me hosting the holiday, I did not look at them until that night. You should be ashamed.

If you cannot provide the service, you shouldn't have accepted the order. I depend on you to follow through with this, and you failed.

Good luck if you're trying to get satisfaction from Grubhub.

I have been using Grubhub since 2018 about 4 times per week. Always five stars to the courier, with the exception of a few times.

This courier, Imelda, was terrible.

I watched the tracker; she sits in her car in the parking lot of the restaurant, doing God knows what, while the food is getting cold. This is
