They also created a "chicago tax" to make customers believe that it was a tax from the city when it is something entirely created by them ($1.5 per order). Just because they were asked to stop overcharging orders (sometimes 15% overcharge). Yet another dishonest and poorly functioning company. Experience has been worse with time, that and the fake restaurant pages...


They did something similar to where I live. When I found out just how much of the cost goes to them rather than the business I stopped using them. It is better to support local businesses by just ordering pick up and and tipping them directly.


IIUC you can't really tip the restaurant on doordash either just the delivery person.


I have never ate at or ordered from any restaurant where you can tip the restaurant, it is always the delivery driver / server.

So, a company?


No. A dishonest company. Many companies are dishonest; perhaps most have to compromise on some smaller or larger things - but let's not forget that it's possible, if hard, to have a honest business. What we need is to beat the market into a shape in which it structurally promotes firms that have integrity.

I'm not convinced this is true in all industries. E.g. if you're a waste management company, how are you supposed to win deals on price if you have a competitors who are illegally dumping garbage into the ocean?
