UberEats
Based on recent customer reviews, UberEats faces severe and systemic service failures across every measurable dimension. Customers consistently report orders not being delivered, drivers absconding with food, refunds being refused, and an almost total absence of accessible human customer support. The platform scores critically low on order accuracy and delivery, customer service, food quality, speed, and hygiene, reflecting deep operational breakdowns.

Ordered food with UBEREATS from Nando my order was the last order before the store closed the driver collected my order on the way to me to deliver he cancelled the order and commented on the Uber Platform that there was no one to collect but the driver didn’t call nor make effort to arrive at the gate and the order was cancelled by the driver. No refund was given back to me, no food was taken back to the store, no food was reimbursed to me by UBEREATS nor NANDO’s Blue hills, Midrand. Till date none of them have made an effort to reply to my complains and issues regarding the order of +/- R500

I am lodging a formal dispute regarding Uber Eats order #35CDA from Game, Johannesburg City (dated 16 Feb 2026). The driver, Tanaka (Vehicle: LY 33 BN GP), arrived at the incorrect street (Falcon Street) instead of the designated Bunting Road gate for Ndlovukazi Ladies Residence. These locations are separated by a campus perimeter fence, making physical access impossible. Furthermore, the driver attempted to deliver a grocery order instead of the stationery I ordered. Although the driver acknowledged the error, he falsely marked the order as 'Delivered' to collect the R154.97 fee. Uber Support has repeatedly refused a refund, citing that the driver 'waited for 8 minutes.' I contest this as the driver 'waited' at an inaccessible, incorrect location with the wrong items. This constitutes a breach of the Consumer Protection Act (CPA) for service not rendered. I require a full refund of R154.97 immediately.

had a very disappointing experience with Uber Eats. My order was never delivered, and when I contacted the delivery driver to find out what was happening, he was extremely rude on the phone. Instead of helping or explaining the situation, he spoke disrespectfully telling me that his delivered my order on the street and that i will wait for him to come back and made the situation even more frustrating. It’s unacceptable for a customer to wait for food that never arrives and then be treated poorly when asking for an update. This experience showed a lack of professionalism and customer service. I hope Uber Eats addresses this kind of behavior because it reflects badly on the platform.

Horrible experience with UBER eats, driver never delivered my food. He went to a wrong address and he confirmed he was at a wrong street when I was outside waiting for my food, now they refusing to refund me. I tried to call with no luck, so that means they allow their drivers to get away with crime. This is totally unacceptable.

Stole R50 from me. They design the app so that when you approve an order you actually subscribe to Uber One, which immediately takes R50 from your account. They are tricking consumers into using this feature, and to unsubscribe you have to delve deep into menus in the Uber app (not Uber Eats) to actually cancel the subscription. True en****tification.

Based on recent customer reviews, this business delivers a consistently strong customer experience anchored by outstanding agent quality and rapid communication. Customers frequently name individual consultants and praise their friendliness, patience, and professionalism. Recurring praise is given to claims and roadside assistance, though a vocal minority report frustrating delays, rejected claims, and poor transparency around premium increases.
This business's biggest strength, according to Hellopeter's AI analysis, is Agent Quality & Customer Care. Named consultants are praised repeatedly for patience, friendliness, and going above and beyond. Words like 'amazing,' 'star,' and 'gem' appear frequently, reflecting genuinely caring human interactions.
The most common complaint, based on Hellopeter's AI analysis of recent customer reviews, is Pricing, Premiums & Transparency. Customers appreciate premium reductions upon request but complain about unexplained annual increases, hidden excess charges, and debits continuing after cancellation. Transparency at policy inception is a recurring gap.
Hellopeter's TrustIndex is a 0–10 score based on review star ratings, reply speed, and recent activity over the last 12 months. How is the TrustIndex calculated? →
