Hello. Thank you for your feedback. Favors delivery fees and any other applicable fees are explained at the point of checkout to help you know what your amount is. We also offer a $0 fee section as well as cheaper delivery options for those looking to keep their cost minimal. I also wanted to point out that the tip amount we provide is a suggestion based on the order and can be edited up to 24 hours after the order, it is not a mandated amount. I hope this helps clear things up and you give us a try again.

Ordered food from VelvetTaco and did not know who was delivering. Never received our food. Called Velvet taco and was told we would receive a refund from Favor. Still waiting and after reading reviews I now realize that we probably won’t. What a terrible delivery company and can’t believe that H‑E‑B uses them as they are awful!

Hi Susan. Im terribly sorry to hear this. It is Favor's policy to refund orders that are not delivered. I was not able to locate an order based on just your name but if you wanted to reach out to us, our Support team would love to look into this and provide a resolution for you. You could reach us with this form http://help.favordelivery.com/ and we would be happy to look into what happened. Thank you so much.

Wish I could give zero stars

Wish I could give zero stars. HORRIBLE delivery service. I rarely ever leave bad reviews but this one was necessary. first, the reason why I downloaded favor is because they had a promo for a free Starbucks coffee. I ordered the coffee, it was completely free, yet they put a $50 hold on my card? What was the point in doing that. They don’t mention it when you’re checking out.
Then they gave me a $15 off promo. But when I went to use it later on, it had turned into a $10 promo instead? I ordered something for 7.99 from taco cabana. With the $10 off, my total came out to $1.39. That was yesterday. Today, I noticed they took $8 off of my card. I emailed them about it, and they’re saying it’s the service fee and tip. Why in the world would you not say that UP FRONT when I’m CHECKING OUT? If my TOTAL says $1.39 then that needs to be my TOTAL.
Crappy, unprofessional company.

Hello. Thank you for your feedback. These charges you are seeing are a standard preauthorization charge when orders occur. Favor releases those charges back to your account. It charges a preauthorization charge in case the tip you place goes over a credit. This preauth charge is our standard charge, even with a coupon. Hopefully this helps!

This is about driving for favor. If you want to have your time and gas wasted, this is the company for you. If you value your time, deliver for someone else.

Update SCAM OVERCHARGE

SCAM I looked at my card and it was charged for $78.82 almost $80dollars for 1lg pizza and a soda. WHAT?? They do not post the the price upfront. It said no delivery fee. That’s because the price changes they charged a beverage tax and a food tax. A service fee. We tipped our runner cash but it did not give us the option to delete the tip. They force the charges on you. They keep the funds on hold. Final price $53.91. We could have went to the store bought steaks, wine, salad and still had money left over. RIP OFF NEVER AGAIN.

UPDATE: No you did not post any estimated charges on the total. The delivery was supposed to be free and we choose to give a cash 💰 tip to our driver which you all automatically took. I have the proof from my bank. The $78.91 was on hold for 7 DAYS not 90 minutes. So much for customer support or service. I stand with my original review.

Hello. Thank you for your feedback. Favors delivery fees and any other applicable fees are explained at the point of checkout to help you know what your amount is. We do run a preauthorization charge upon checkout to make sure the method of payment is valid but that is released 90 minutes after the order is completed. I hope this helps clear things up and you give us a try again.

Don't use favor, SCAM.

Every single time, I've been overcharged when placing an order. They have menu prices that change and become higher upon payment within the app. For instance, if a menu price for an item is $13.99 shown in the app, and you go to checkout everything is ok. But then upon payment I get charged $23.00 for the same item PLUS $3 service fees PLUS $6 deliver fees PLUS tips (minimum $2.00) and end up paying a whopping #$34 dollars. Talk about overcharging and not clearly giving the final payment total 'upfront'. And I tried contacting customer service and all they could do is send back $2 in credit TO USE ON MY NEXT ORDER (WHICH IF I USE IN THE FUTURE WILL PROBABLY OVERCHARGE ME AGAIN REPEATING THE SAME CYCLE), and not even send back to my credit card. After I explained the price discrepencies to a customer service rep, they just thanked me for my time and ghosted me. NEVER USE FAVOR, THEY WILL LITERALLY SCAM YOU.

Very unprofessional company a runner that was assigned to me took a bite out of my food that I ordered and delivered like nothing never happened. And messed with safety seal on order.

Hello Riddle, this is not what we like to hear. The safety seal is there for a reason and if at any time its broken, we want you to reach out to us so we can make that right for you. We would love to hear from you about this order so we can make this right. We take Runner behavior very seriously at Favor. I hope we hear from you soon.

Crooks

I had absolutely no problem with the delivery driver. What they don't make clear to you is they charge you an additional $50 out of your bank account without consulting you first. This is complete false advertisement and lies through the corporate side of it. I will never use favor again and I will tell everyone I come across that they are crooks.

Hello, Im happy to shed some light here. These charges you are seeing are a standard preauthorization charge when orders occur. Favor releases those charges back to your account 90 minutes after you place the order. Some preauthorizations return immediately, some take several business days but we dont have any control beyond the 90 minute release. I would advise reaching out to your bank if those charges still havent dropped off. Hopefully this helps!

Let me list the reasons NOT to use Favor.
Double charge of item orders placed as "Hold"
Assign runner that is NOT your runner
Order for your food never placed with restaurant
Text from favor support saying all is well - meanwhile, an hour later - still no food.
No telephone number that gives you a person.
If there was a negative emoticon available, I would most definitely be using it.

Hi there. Im so sorry this has been your experience with us. I wasnt able to locate your order by the name provided but would love the opportunity to connect with you if we could. Often times Runners are reassigned before orders are picked up but the Runner in the app at time of delivery should match who shows up to deliver. I hope we hear from you soon, I would love to get to the bottom of this for you.

My husband and I ordered two taco plates. For some reason they added two more taco plates to our order, then proceeded to tell me that I needed to make sure my order was correct. Next time favor sucks they also tried to charge us for the extra plates that we did not order

Hi Carrie, I was able to locate your order. I do also see that your original order was for 4 taco plates instead of 2. The Runner placed the order that was sent to them. However Support did refund you for the 2 taco plates in the amount of $15.71 as a courtesy. I hope this helps.

These people are criminals

These people are criminals. They over charge your credit card and the orders are always wrong or messed up. They once took $50 from my account after I ordered a $4 sandwich from Subway. Do not order from Favor.

I recently purchased individually 31 pound bags of Madelyn chocolate. I did not receive 31 pound bag of Madelyn chocolate. I received less than a pound of Thompson chocolate one of the three selections. I received a plastic bag that looks like a bunch of melted chocolate, which was leaking all over the FedEx packaging. I did not receive 1 pound for each of the other two Madelyn chocolate requests.

Anything you save on chocolate will be paid back with the exorbitant shipping fee.

This is a scam. Buyer beware !!!

Order was incorrect

Order was incorrect. Favor offered an 81cent credit (when I was Not supposed be up charged anyway). What's the point of ordering if you're not going to get the correct item and they say there is nothing they will do. Eg send correct order or refund the the full cost of the entree. I have used favor for over a year and order minimum 1x week. But in July / Aug when I was sick I ordered almost every night. If they don't value the customer, I won't be one. I removed the app from my phone and sent them the screenshot before and after the removal.

FAVOR IS TRASH

I spent time getting my order together and when I went to pay them, it said $41. As soon as I hit "place order", it went to $53 with no explanation and I'm still getting the run around from customer service 4 days later. I was switched to four different drivers. Favor is trash.

Favor is Garbage

Constant delays with runners switching or dropping. Takes 2 hours to get a coffee when app says 30 minutes. These services and tech are junk.
