> I order a pizza through Deliveroo

I used Deliveroo for the first time in London a few months ago. It was the worst delivery experience I have ever had. Deleted after two tries.

My experience with Caviar, UberEats and ChowNow have been immeasurably better. As evidenced by their having live chat and phone support to Deliveroo’s e-mail only two-day turnaround support.

I had a positive support experience.

The delivery driver delivered me somebody else's order. Within 10 minutes, they had refunded me, and were re-preparing my original order (which I received 30 minutes later). I also got to keep the wrong order - I stuck it in the fridge.

Even though the situation was a bit of a mess, the live support worked well for me.

It's very difficult to compare based on individual experiences.

For example I had the opposite experience as you have and have deleted UberEats to stick with Deliveroo.

There is probably not much difference between them.

Meanwhile, deliveroo was the only decent option in Germany and has now exited to market. Lieferando is pure garbage as a product on the restaurants they list.
