Anyone hear about this?

Some DoorDash customers took advantage of a glitch on the food delivery site to order thousands of dollars worth of groceries and food for free.

Posts on social media indicated a problem affecting the site on Thursday night that allowed users to check out without making a payment.

One customer showed a receipt on his DoorDash account for more than $3,000, with items including 32 packs of diapers and 45 units of baking soda. A later picture posted by the user showed several boxes of alcohol that appear to have been ordered from the site.

DoorDash glitch gave customers free food worth thousands of dollars

Customers began reporting the problem on Thursday night, sharing receipts for thousands of dollars' worth of goods ordered for free from the site.

My mom was telling me about it. She saw something on Facebook so I pulled up a story on it. Man, I wish I knew about this. I would have stocked up too LOL I can bet you though they will be taking legal measures considering someone got 10k worth of free stuff.

Man I didn't hear about it until I read this topic! Would have been nice to take advantage of this, my wife and I have been dealing with covid this past week and it would have helped us out since we couldn't leave to go anywhere.

That's karma for all that overcharging they be doing. I ordered some food yesterday and they tacked on $15 in additional charges. I just went and picked It up my darn self.

Spot on! They are getting away with robbery. I see so much nonsense about this company. They rip so many people off, and in this economy? It is just dirty.

Yes and then asked me if I want to give $2 additional to the restaurant.

Door Dash would have been better many years ago with cheaper gas prices. I don't see how drivers for them can make a good living like this with high gas prices. I know they can put this on their resume.

Yep. I think that driving to close places is not that bad. However, places that are further away is not worth collecting 4.00 in a fee for Door Dash since that is just under one gallon of gas where I live at. It is sad how these companies use people who need this kind of money to survive and to try to get somewhere in this world.

It should be illegal but that's how Corporate America wants all jobs to be.

Definitely. They have power, and we don't. Many of our people want to just complain that something is not right and not fair.

That is some bull man. I am glad I never used their service. It is bad enough that you go out to eat and now restaurants are charging more for their food and tacking on additional fees like "kitchen service". The f is that?

I do notice the food prices are higher when Door Dash is used. This is before the Door Dash fee or tax is applied.
