Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 254 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Customers frequently experienced severe delivery delays, often receiving cold food, incomplete meals, or packages that simply never showed up at all. People noted that items were frequently incorrect, poorly handled by drivers, or left in completely wrong locations without any warning. Some reviewers were not happy with the unhelpful customer support, pointing out that frustrating automated responses and chatbots completely wasted their valuable time. Consumers also struggled significantly to secure fair refunds, frequently receiving only minimal monetary credits or facing outright refusals after submitting legitimate requests. Buyers mentioned that reaching a human agent to resolve issues was practically impossible.

You have a truly terrible human being working there

You have a terrible human being employed as your senior onboarding specialist in Calgary named Sabrin Hasan who sabotages people online with false statements and fabrications. She's a truly terrible person who doesn't deserve to be employed by Skip. Figured you should know now, she'll show her true colors eventually and they are really ugly. She gives your business a bad name. Her actions will almost certainly result in legal ramifications eventually. As low character as they come. Just a heads up. If someone like that's worked for me I'd sure want to know how terrible they were representing themselves and my business in the public eye.

AWEFUL SERVICE

AWEFUL SERVICE! Don't use it! This is not the first time I have issues with Skip the dishes but today it was enough.
I placed an ordered and the restaurant missed 2 items, I contacted Skip to complaint and they were giving me a refund which it didn't make sense . I spent 20 dollars and they were going to give me 15!!
Ridiculous, nobody helps, is a Robot you are chatting with. Nobody takes responsibility

Skip is ridiculous

Skip is ridiculous. Signed up to get a delivery for our dinner 2.5hrs later I get a call from Skip asking why I haven't "picked up" my food! Turns out they don't deliver to my area!! Nothing warned me on the app. No note or anything saying "hey we looked at your address, and we don't deliver there"!! We're going to drive and pick up our cold order. They offered us credits! Yeah, like I'm EVER using them again! 😡😡😡

I never received my order

I never received my order, the driver delivered food to the wrong address. I contacted skip the dishes support, they said the driver said he delivered it to the right address, so they cant issue a refund. Well of course their idiot driver would be trying to save their ass. I did not receive my food, or a refund. Criminal company. avoid at all cost.

Their technology is useless

I just used it for the first time, and I didn't want to download yet another app. I've had to get help from support twice just to get to this point, and my order hasn't even arrived yet. The browser version for mobile is GARBAGE. I got a text that a substitution was needed, but there was absolutely nowhere to approve it. Support had to tell me to go to tracking to message with the delivery person... but the message button is not prominent. I finally got into the chat with the delivery person and the text box to type in kept disappearing. Finally I downloaded the app in a panic, and somehow the substitution was approved according to the driver (I certainly didn't approve it in the app, but I did with the driver). I've just looked around the app for a bit now and it seems almost as crappy as the mobile browser. TERRIBLE experience for a first time user.

Bad problem solving

I don't usually bother with negative reviews but when I reach out to customer service (after they deny my refund using the self-serve option) for a refund because my drink is wrong and they tell me that their "system" says it's not wrong, it's time for a review. I have been getting the same drink for years so I know what the correct drink looks like...and what I got was wrong, so, because I have dietary standards I have to follow, I cant drink the one they gave me because it is incorrect. But they wont refund because of "their system". They rely on their system and not even on their own brains to process requests.

Frustrating and disappointing experience

I don’t usually post things like this, but I’m genuinely frustrated with the experience I just had.

The app, the ordering flow, and even the help centre are extremely difficult to deal with. Nothing feels transparent or easy to verify after the fact (like promotions disappearing or not being accessible once the order is placed), and getting clear support for issues has been very limited.

On top of that, my recent order had problems that weren’t properly resolved, which just added to the frustration.

At this point, I’ve decided to delete my account. The overall experience has not been what I would expect from a service in 2026, especially when it comes to clarity, reliability, and customer support.

Just sharing this in case others have had similar experiences.

What the public should know about this company

I would not recommend this company to anyone. Every time you order from this company you are gambling . They say you will get a refund because you didn’t receive the order. If you don’t get an agent you have to stay on top of them. I have been issued points for a refund and it was not the correct amount. The customer service department said because they made a mistake and I didn’t correct them in the 48hr it’s my fault. I have everything documented and true.
I could write a book about this company and customer service.

I ordered from Wendy’s in Garson…

I ordered from Wendy’s in Garson Ontario Canada . I called to ask the restaurant itself whether they put a safety sticker on their drinks and they said yes they do . my kid received his order no safety seal , drink was missing g liquid and there was no straw. We watched the driver on the app and could tell he was stopped at the train tracks for a long period of time and that’s probably when he took it upon himself to have a sip of the drink . Disgusting!! Skip said I would get contacted 7-10 minutes and here we are hours later still waiting . My drivers name was Bony? Probably not a real name but …… do not use skip in Sudbury Ontario !!! It’s getting worse and worse !!!!

Lousy customer service with no positive end result

I am so upset about my experience with SkipTheDishes.

My mom died and I was given a gift card. I input it into the system following the instructions that came with the card (and annoying process on it's own).

The card would not redeem. I could see it had been logged on as it said I had $XX available. I tried to get it to use the gift amount but kept getting an error message.

I logged into chat and was connected to "Shiella R"

I have NEVER had such awful customer service. It said it was a 1-3 minute wait but I was connected pretty quickly and then crickets.

Then:

"Have you tried adding it without spaces?"

Yes, and also, I had never added spaces. I had tried it many different ways at this point.

No reply for 20+ minutes!!

"Did you know you could have saved $6.XX if you had a monthly membership?"

Yes, I'm not interested.

20+ minutes later.

"Have you tried logging out and back in?"

I do that, lose all the items in my cart, and nothing had changed. I tell her. No response.

20+ minutes later

"I'm sorry you are having a problem with your card. Have you tried contacting your bank? Are you sure you input the address correctly?"

WTF this is about a GIFT card not my bank card.

I gave up. Who knows if I will ever get to use this money. Over an hour and no solution.

Horrible customer service

Horrible customer service. I received a gift card as a gift some time ago, to which when I scratched for the code the code came off with it. Customer service will not help me and has blocked me from messaging in the app.

Make frequent mistakes and ignore refund requests.

On two occasions items in my orders were missing so I immedately put in refund requests. They ignored the requests and when I followed up a few days later they said they couldn't help me because 48 hours had passed. In other words they ignore the requests and wait for the timer to lapse, then tell you there is nothing they can do.

Horrible customer service experience

Horrible customer service experience. Agents not even listening to me just sending copied and pasted stuff and then ended the chat on me. I wasn’t even being listened to. They didn’t refund my order even tho it took 40 mins and was melted. Horrible customer service company.

Took two hours for my food to arrive

Took two hours for my food to arrive, despite having confirmation from the driver as to when it was picked up. Ordered at 3:26; got the notification that my food was being picked up at 4. Noticed the driver wasn't moving so messaged him; he responsed at 4:17 saying he had my food but had been hacked and was talking to the bank. I contacted Skip staff; about 5 minutes after speaking to staff at 4:20 and being told to talk to my driver and be patient/contact them if the food arrived in unacceptable condition, the driver called me and swore he would be there in 30 minutes. He took 40 more minutes and arrived at 5:25, and kept trying to make me look at his phone. Food arrived ice cold and unsafe to eat. (Hot fish and chips.) Skip refused to refund me the full amount and offered me 9 out of 30 dollars back. I'm a pregnant woman; I'm not going to consume fish that sat in the back of a strange man's car for 2 hours. Completely unacceptable customer service; straight up theft. I will be doing a chargeback on my credit card and never using again since Skip staff are so utterly unhelpful.

My daughter gave me $50 gift card on…

My daughter gave me $50 gift card on Mother’s Day . I have tried to use it at least 12 times Not working. I chatted with Help no help , with Help Advisers nothing resolved. Emailed numerous times still not resolved. I tried again today to order food still same issue. I am a first time user because my daughter gave me the gift card but honestly I am beyond disappointed and frustrated at Not being able to use the gift card and to date nothing has been resolved. Honestly I wish she did not give me the gift card. First time using Skip and it’s a nightmare.
