Hi mate I don’t suppose you could share a blank copy of your spreadsheet with us?

I pay my takeaway delivery drivers a minimum of £50 for a 4-hour shift and extra pay for over 20 deliveries. They get around £20 tips from customers, all cash, no tax.

I live in a development of houses that's surrounded by Fields. The potholes of which there are many are caused by the tractors from the farm coming too and from the fields all day, and you're right they are a hazard

so many posh houses with ring door bells so by the time you pay for fuel and car use items like insurance. servicing car mot servicing using the car for business use the problem comes is sometime your not told the parcel is coming so you have no chance of being in for it.

Does anyone know if you can deliver Christmas day?

I was looking at doing this but when looking said not recruiting at the moment which I was surprised about considering time of year did you get signed up onto their service straight away

Nice to see you follow the delivery instructions, my delivery drivers don't anymore. They drop at the street door and it's me or some in the race to pick them up. Great video 👍

Really good video mate. The take home is even less because u didn't include the car insurance you must pay yourself too. Amazon won't let you work without it but expect you to pay for it. The f-ing farms man...

That music though. Why?

do you need to complete the round in a certain time or is it up to you?

All these type of jobs are going the same way. I used to do Uber eats and made pretty good money. approx £5 per drop and you could do 4 drops per hour, then they just allowed more & more drivers on the platform until there was way too many & people were taking drops for like £3.

Amazon UK has single-handedly put the British High Street out of commission.

Not sure how you got your figures but definitely not as low as £8 an hour. More closer to £12 by my workings. Also Not sure where you got the £7.50 tax and also why you are adding a £5 deduction of wear and tear after your tax deduction.

What's the difference between Amazon logistics and fresh in terms of the amount of stops

there taking the piss

I work for Amazon Prime electric vans. 315 percels 160 stops every day. All that for £135(7-8hrs)

Now deduct car amortisation/servicing/maintenance and then you will see that you work for free. 😂😂😂

SHOCKING ! = 💩 Rate its a race to the bottom, but a win win for the mighty AMAZON.... 💰

So, are you paid based on the amount you take? Or the shift you work? Because 30 packets wouldn't take anyone 3.5 hours to deliver, unless the area you're covering is huge (I used to be a Postman for 5 years so I'm just curious)

Hi Tom im in my late 20s too new to the channel just subscribed love your content cant eait for more adventures 😊

£2K+ is that in a month?

What insurance do u use

Got my first flex on Friday 6.15pm 3 hour block , any tips ?? Logistics pick up ?

I do it for a bit of extra money in between my day job. Some blocks in the inner cities are a pain in the back side. GPS won’t work properly and you’ll get parking fines galore. I live in a rural area and you do more miles but usually easier block. Best blocks are suburban runs 3.5-4.0 hours 35-45 parcels in that time easy if you’re not dragging your feet.

just done my first 2 blocks the past two days at base rate, didn't care too much because i just wanted to get my feet wet and see what amazon flex was all about, both where 3 hour blocks, finished my first in 2 hour 45 and second block in 2 hour 10 min

Be good to see the pre tax total more as would make more sense for most people viewing who may not have to pay tax on all earnings

Did my first two shifts yesterday 11:30 - 1:00 (1.5hrs) 3:00 - 6:30 (3.5hrs) After expenses I made 30 pound for 5 hours work and 2 hours travel to depo’s and home I never finished block until 7:00 so half an hour late and had to drive 20mins to drop an undelivered parcel back off so left depo at 7:20, home by 8 Left house at 10:30 and home by 8 on a Saturday for 30 quid 😂😂😂😂😂

£13/h. Rubbish.

The minimum wage is over £12 now. Any company paying less can be fined Big time - so if you are getting less, then complain and threaten to report them.

First sell your car and get a hybrid or anything above 55mpg. Up to £12570 you are tax free so you shouldn't calculate with the worst case scenario. This is a business. If you're not doing it right it's obviously won't work. Nobody will give money for free. That's life. Do something else if it doesn't work for you

I feel this video is sponsored by Ring doorbells lol

And now if we assume you did it all in 1h, your hourly wage is £48.07 . Not too bad! :D

Do you get a pre routed navigation app?

Hi, I was going through your spreadsheet and I don’t understand where you are getting your mileage expense number from, according to HMRC mileage expense is 45p per mile but yours is working out less than half that.

great vid its something im going to try based on this

I do flex in london and its difficult to grab any shifts because it seems like everybody is using the block grabber software the blocks go in millseconds. Its really difficult

you did not work out wear and tear costs on your vehicle. MOT, service, tax etc. and that is before any repairs

😮

The only good paying jobs are the short jobs like 1.5 hours for £28.50 the higher paying jobs work out less per hour especially if it’s a long drive to the warehouse

Why aren't amazon paying for mileage??? Atleast £1 a mile. I was thinking of taking this up on top on my normal job, but it doesnt really seem worth it at those rates.

Been doing flex a year now and I’ve done max hours a week every week, never ever taken me anymore than half the block time

I do flex but only 2 or 3 times a month. I find it pretty easy, it works well for me as my depot is 4 mins from my house, I have an ev which I can charge for free at my main job so I have no fuel costs. I’ve been lucky that the routes I have had have been close to the depot so mileage & wear & tear minimal & my husband is a mechanic! I think it really depends on the type of car you have & the running costs associated and how far you are from the depot. I tend to take the shorter blocks these are usually the less mileage the time they stipulate is correct I have never gone over in fact I usually finish before the end time. It will not work for everyone but if you need a bit of extra cash every now and then it can be good way to earn some cash.

I enjoyed my Flex days. I used my BMW X4, and i had to use an auto clicker to get the higher rates first thing in the morning or afternoon runs after work.

Good review, thanks mate. My wife and myself stayed at Diamonds Thudufushi (I've done a full review of that resort on my KZbin channel - Mikes Travels). Another highly recommended resort in the Maldives and we were looking to go back there, but this resort has court our eye. 2 questions please: 1. Was the food quite varied? 2. What is the marine life like for snorkelling off the beach and villa's? Thudufushi was excellent and we are looking for something that matches up Many thanks again for the great insight and info

Well if you know you live in an awkward place dont order. Orrrr order it to a locker where it gaurantees delivery and its not awkward for the driver. Dont get paid enough​@stingersplash

That is really interesting thank you how do you keep track of your mileage etc

What insurance you use to make it 62p p/h?

Can you explain the tax pot and reimbursement for your expenses for non uk viewers.

What a nightmare the world has turned into. Bring back the shops please.

This is so cool!
