Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 100 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Customers frequently faced issues with delivery, including incorrect, damaged, or undelivered orders, often arriving significantly later than promised. The customer service was widely criticized for being unhelpful, rude, and providing robotic responses that failed to resolve problems. A common frustration was the difficulty in obtaining full refunds, with many reporting outright refusals or only partial compensation for ruined or missing items. Some people also mentioned instances where orders were not received, leading to further complications and a lack of resolution.

Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. One of my orders was over two hours late, and Deliveroo said they’d ‘escalate it to higher management’—but when I finally spoke to a senior agent, they were no different. Nothing was resolved.

Then I had another issue with undercooked cookies, but because I didn’t take a picture before throwing them away, they refused to help. The agents are slow, unhelpful, and keep repeating the same questions instead of actually solving problems. They even promised me a refund for my late order but never issued it.

I deleted the app because the service is a joke. I wouldn’t recommend Deliveroo to anyone who values their time or money.

Unhelpful staff after late order

Order 2 hours late
Driver left the restaurant and didn’t tell anyone. I didn’t know until live chat. Delivery time just kept getting pushed back.
Offered a refund but then food turned up so chat kicked me off. Requested the refund the next day to get £2.93. After care staff didn’t care and said the refund was the refund.
Rahaf was unhelpful so go his boss Jeresa. Jeresa was even worse and just sent me pre written messages to try and be nice. Do not use, if things go wrong they don’t care. Account deleted and won’t be using again.

Late deliveries

They give you an estimated delivery time but then they just push it back and back when the order is delayed, so you don't actually know when your order will arrive, the time just keeps moving back. Then they tell you the order wasn't delayed because they updated the estimated delivery time.

Deliveroo is an absolute joke

Deliveroo is an absolute joke. Had a driver bring me 1 item out of 12- pretty sure they delivered my order to the drop-off before me. Told them that my order is missing loads of things & showed my receipt. They’ve taken my code & marked the order as ‘delivered successfully’. Spoken to a live agent who claims they can’t refund my order because the code has been inputted by the driver. Now I’ve just paid £30+ for an imaginary order!! Not helpful at all and an absolute joke. Bet that delivery driver can still go on to make mistakes too. What a joke

Food arrives burned AND ice cold with a bunch of items missing. They gave credit for SOME missing items and apologised for the inconvenience for the rest…

Support keeps conveniently disconnecting.

HORRENDOUS CUSTOMER SERVICE AND…

HORRENDOUS CUSTOMER SERVICE AND APPALLING DECISION MAKING.

This is for order 2261.

I would like to make a formal complaint about a service I have received from you.

On the 27th January, I placed an order with one of your restaurant. As soon as the order was placed, I followed the normal process to "add a dietary requirement". That process took me to your service and to one of your support team members. I explained the situation and asked him to share the restaurant's details so that I could contact them. As you can see from the recorded conversation, he gave me the WRONG phone number - instead of giving me the restaurant's phone number, I was given Deliveroo's number again. I called back and explained the situation and they then offered to call to restaurant, but given that that particular restaurant is very quick to prepare the order, by the time Delivery did the right thing and contacted them, it was too late. The order was received with the wrong dietary requirement, which meant that it could not be eaten due to allergies. When I then spoke to 2 of your customer representative to request the refund of that particular dish (NOT EVEN THE FULL ORDER), I was told that there was NOTHING that could be done (no refund and no compensation), even though the customer representatives CONFIRMED that the mistake had been on Deliveroo's side, during that first phone call.

I would like to know how I can appeal that decision which is ludicrous. I did everything I was supposed to do through the app but unfortunately due to YOUR mistake, I could not add my dietary requirement and eat what I received.

Given that phone calls are recorded and that the mistake is very clearly on your side, I would also like to know what I can do outside Deliveroo to take this matter further. It is a JOKE that you can agree that you made the mistake, that I did everything right and that you still don't take accountability by providing the refund of the order that could not be consumed.

Please let me know how I can take this further, within or outside Deliveroo.

An app that lies

An app that lies!
The app told us that the driver was waiting at the restaurant. We called the restaurant and they said the order was ready and they were waiting for the rider.....
I believed the restaurant. Anyway, good thing they refund you when your food is cold....

Awful customer service

Awful customer service. 3 incorrect items with photos and no resolution or help from customer service. What a waste of time trying to receive help and money that I never got back.

Refunds are a joke

One order took nearly two hours to have a rider assigned but the restaurant had already prepared the order so the full order was stone cold. I complained and got less than 10% refund as an account credit.

Tried again a week later to use the credit and the order was cold again as the driver had more than one order and one of our items had missing ingredients. The order was £20.49 and we got a ridiculous refund of £0.49. Will never use again

Wish I could give no stars

Wish I could give no stars, absolutely awful service. Their driver took over 30 mins to deliver food from a restaurant less than 5 mins away. Everything was stone cold and they only refunded £5 of a £20 bill. I queried this and asked for full refund and got this nonsense reply:

However, please know that the compensation is calculated based on the fractional amount of the food cost. We highly value your input and it is carefully considered to enhance our service.

What does that even mean? It's nonsense, they are crooks and don't care about their customers or the restaurants they are taking money from. Will be going back to the alternative delivery companies.

Terrible service for Diamond customers…

Terrible service for Diamond customers ! I received a banana bread instead of a blueberry cake. I don’t eat bananas so the banana bread is going to be wasted. Deliveroo is refusing to send me a replacement and refusing to refund me after I provided pictures of the item received and of the receipt showing the discrepancy. This is unacceptable ! I am paying almost 20 pounds a month to have a premium service and this is what I get. They are telling me to complain to the shop where I ordered from, which I won’t do because their service is usually great contrary to Deliveroo’s. What I am going to do is cancel my Diamond Subscription.

Horrendous customer service

Horrendous customer service. They delivered the wrong order and rather than send me the order and refund the money, they refused to do so. Stating I could either get a refund and eat the food I received (I have an Allergy!!) or just have the food redelivered and pay full price. Totally backwards!
