Can I cancel an Uber Eats delivery?

Yes, you can cancel your Uber Eats delivery. Depending on the status of your order, you may be able to cancel it online or through the Uber Eats app. You can also contact your delivery partner or the restaurant directly and they can provide you with cancellation instructions.

You may also contact Uber Eats Support directly and they may be able to help you with the cancellation too. Cancellation policies can vary by restaurant and delivery partner, so you may be charged a fee if your order is canceled.

How do you cancel Uber delivery?

If you need to cancel an Uber delivery order, you can do so through the app. First, select the ‘Orders’ tab in the app. Then, find the order you wish to cancel and select the ‘Cancel’ option within that order.

If you choose to cancel your order within 15 minutes of placing it, you will receive a full refund. If you choose to cancel after that 15 minute window, you will still receive a cancellation fee depending on the length of time that has passed since you placed the order.

If you cancel the order and the delivery driver has already accepted it, the driver will still be compensated for the delivery and you will still be charged. Be sure to keep this in mind when cancelling a delivery order.

Why can’t I cancel Uber Eats?

Unfortunately, in certain circumstances, you may not be able to cancel or delete your Uber Eats order. In some cases, you may have placed an order with a restaurant, and the restaurant has started prepping your food.

Once that has happened, the restaurant may require payment, so cancelling your order would mean they are not getting paid, and they can’t return the food to the kitchen.

Also, you won’t be able to cancel an order if the delivery partner is already on their way. Furthermore, once you place an order, there will be a 15-minute window for you to update or cancel the order.

After that window has passed, it may not be possible to cancel the order due to the fact that the delivery partner may have already started their journey to your address or restaurant at that point.

If you try to cancel after this window of time has passed, you will receive a message that your order cannot be cancelled. To always ensure that you have the ability to cancel an order, make sure you cancel within the 15 minutes of creating the order.

If you would like to reach out to the restaurant, you can find their contact information under the ‘Contact Restaurant’ option within the order details.

Do I get charged if I cancel my Uber Eats order?

If your order is cancelled because the restaurant is too busy (and thus unable to fulfill your order), you will not be charged a cancellation fee. Additionally, if Uber support cancels the order on your behalf due to technical difficulties, you will not be charged a cancellation fee.

How do you cancel Uber Eats order taking too long?

Lastly, if the delivery driver is already on their way to deliver your order, you can contact them by calling the phone number on their profile. Explain that you need to cancel the order and request that they don’t proceed with delivery.

How do I call Uber Eats customer service?

To call Uber Eats customer service, you can dial 1-800-253-5688. When you call, you will be connected to an automated menu, but you can select the option “talk to an Uber Eats customer support team member” to speak directly with a customer service representative.

You can then give a brief description of your issue and the customer service representative will help you further. You should also have your order number and the part of your order (if any) that is affected ready; this will help the customer service representative provide you with a faster and more efficient support.

Who pays for Uber Eats refunds?

When an Uber Eats order is refunded due to a customer refund request or fraudulent activity, the merchant or restaurant will be responsible for covering the cost of the refund. Uber Eats will not withhold any money from the merchant or restaurant for the refund.

The merchant or restaurant will be responsible for covering the full cost of the refunded order. In most cases, the merchant or restaurant will be prompted to issue a refund from their existing account with Uber Eats.

Once the refund is processed, the money will be returned to the customer.

It’s important to note that customers have the right to request a refund on any order up to seven days after the purchase. If an Uber Eats refund is requested within this timeframe, the merchant or restaurant will be responsible for providing the refund.

If a customer requests a refund after the seven-day window, Uber Eats may cover the refund but the merchant or restaurant may still be subject to a restocking fee or other charges.
