9. Delivery Operations FAQs
Updated over 4 years ago

1. What should I do when there is no driver assigned to my order?

Oddle and our partners always try our best to find drivers for your orders. However, in high-demand occasions where there is a significant shortage of drivers, we encourage you to seek alternatives to ensure the orders are delivered to your customers, such as :

  • Engage taxi or freelance drivers,

  • Source drivers on other delivery platforms (Grab Express/Grab Delivery, GoGet, Zepto, etc)

When your orders are fulfilled via other options instead of our delivery partners, you will not be billed for these deliveries. The delivery fees paid by the customers will be disbursed to you.

2. What should I do when the driver comes earlier than the scheduled food pick-up time?

Drivers should only come at the scheduled pickup time. If they come early and food is not ready yet, please tell them to wait. There is no need to pass them the food earlier.

If the driver shows a bad attitude when they are told to wait, kindly send us the incident report so that we can relay your feedback to our delivery partner. If you want a new driver, do let us know in your dedicated WhatsApp group chat and we will find a new driver for you.

3. When the customer didn’t provide the unit number for delivery

There are cases where customers forget to provide the unit number and the driver is unable to deliver the items after picking up. We should suggest the below actionable:

  • Contact the customer to get unit number and let us know in the WhatsApp group chat, or

  • Inform the customer that the driver will leave the food at the guardhouse if applicable

If the customer is uncontactable, you can request the driver return the food to the store, or dispose of the food.

4. When the driver delivers the food to the wrong address.

We would suggest you issue a full refund to the customer. You can report to us about the incident and we will refund you the full order and delivery fee. Please refer to our compensation policy here.

However, if you decide to redeliver the food, the delivery fee applies for the second delivery.

5. When the driver picks up the food and goes missing, the food is not delivered to the customer eventually

We would suggest you issue a full refund to the customer. You can report to us about the incident and we will refund you the full order and delivery fee. Please refer to our compensation policy here.

However, if you decide to redeliver the food, the delivery fee applies for the second delivery.

6. When there are missing items or damaged food received by the customer

We would suggest you issue a partial refund of the missing or damaged items to the customer. You can report to us about the incident and we will refund you the value of the missing or damaged items. Please refer to our compensation policy here.

However, if you decide to redeliver the items, the delivery fee applies for the second delivery.

7. When the driver is rude

Kindly send us the incident report so that we can relay your feedback to our delivery partner to improve the service from the drivers.

8. What should I do when more than 1 driver comes for the same order (non-duplicated orders)?

If more than one driver comes to pick up the same order with the same order number, please do not pass the food again to the second driver and ask them to leave. Do let them know that the cancellation fee will be paid to them from Lalamove or Oddle.

Please also inform us via your dedicated Whatsapp group chat so that we can ensure only one delivery fee will be applied for your order.
