Common complaints

Users report incorrect or incomplete orders, frequent cancellations without explanation, and problems with payment options like cash on delivery. Addresses are often entered incorrectly, causing missed deliveries. The app fails to recognize preferred delivery methods, such as bike delivery. Technical issues include app failure on iOS, regions marked as unavailable, and no ability to schedule deliveries through +Entregas. These problems cause frustration and reduce trust in the platform.

How it has changed over time

iFood has no available monthly history data to track changes in ordering or website performance over time. Without this data, it is impossible to assess improvements or worsening trends. Repeated complaints about order errors, payment failures, and app instability indicate these issues have not been resolved. The lack of change indicators means recent updates cannot be evaluated for impact.

    Original„Recebi meu pedido errado e incompleto“

Practical takeaways

iFood has frequent errors and poor support, making it unreliable for users seeking a dependable ordering experience. Features like paying on delivery and scheduling deliveries are often unavailable or not working. Users focused on discounts and fast, low-cost meals may still find value. Always double-check order details before confirming and keep transaction records for disputes.
