    They had this trial as of at least yesterday before the announcement. I think they're just pushing notifications through to Victorians to take advantage of everyone being stuck at home.

    Uber eats is a rort now theyve introduced the additional service fees - much rather use menulog and deliveroo

      The "Service fee" might as well be called the "F*** you fee".

    Am I reading this correctly:
    - $20 off one grocery order each month for the next 3 months (min. $30 excl. fees)
    - Subscription is $14.99/month.

    I don't know how much the fees are, but you could be a net $ winner (for 3 months) if you play it right.

      The groceries are incredibly marked up

    • +1

      The "grocery" stores seem to be expensive mini marts or convenience stores.

  • +1

    Some people complaining in reviews about an overall cost increase in Ubers after the trial to try push you onto the paid version of the pass. Beware.

  • +4

    Uber Pass for $15/month and you still need to pay $20 (which means $2 service fee) for free delivery and this isn't even all places.
    Or you could just use the 'delivery partners' tab for free with the same min spend.

  • +3

    I hate companies that advertise free delivery but charge you a handling service fee.

  • Its almost as if delivery outside of pizza and chinese places was never profitable so they never bothered!

  • +1

    2 steps backward: Mandatory service fee, paid subscription for free delivery
    1 step forward: Free trial

  • 10% off Uber rides too, 15% off Uber premium.

  • The service fee is more expensive than delivery a lot of the times, don't know if there is a lot of value if you are looking to use it for delivery only

  • -1

    "…we will continue to support your local restaurants, cafes and grocery stores…" With fees of 36%+GST on the total order value.

    If you're honestly thinking of using uber (or Menulog or whatever), order the absolute bare minimum like a bottle of soft drink, then ring the restaurant and order everything else but tell them to bundle it with the uber order you just made for a bottle of soft drink.

  • Do they charge you $14.99 on the spot? Terms and conditions implies so.

    • +2

      I thought the same as well! I just signed up - confirming they do not charge $14.99 on the spot.

  • Service fee kind of kills this.

  • Just tried this, seems to not work if you've already used a free trial on your account, just a heads up.
