I also depend on instacart to make ends meet. I stepped away from the platform twice now because of having covid. Complicated things for me. I tried to get back on the platform and I never received any deliveries. Tried chatting over and over no end result just incompitency. Kept giving me excuses over and over as to why I wasn’t receiving anything. Very frustrating not a way to communicate. It's actually false advertising that you can work on your own time. 5 stars I also have to.
