An Uber Eats Driver Reportedly Refused To Deliver Plan B

One Uber Eats delivery driver seems to have their personal beliefs interfere with the successful delivery of an order — and now the customer is asking for help in an effort to figure out what went wrong. The problem? The customer ordered Plan B, and their driver refused to deliver it.

The customer posted their ordeal on the r/UberEats subreddit. They say they needed a Plan B bill “on the fly.” It isn’t clear exactly what that means, but it’s also not anyone’s business. Because the buyer was busy, they didn’t have a chance to grab the pill themselves, so they put in an order on Uber Eats for it to be delivered from a local CVS.

The problems started almost as soon as a local delivery person accepted the order, as the customer described in the post:

This guy accepts the order, and he’s on a bike, so it took him about 40 mins just to get to the CVS. Then he sits outside the CVS for an additional 30 minutes, before sending me this message.

They provided a screenshot of the message that the delivery person sent them, and it’s wild. Instead of doing what they had been paid and tipped to do, the person explained why they can’t deliver them Plan B: “…I can not deliver this knowing what it will do.”

What? This person seems to be saying that they think that Plan B is some kind of abortion bill instead of the emergency preventive contraception it really is. Worse yet, the delivery person never even canceled the order —presumably on purpose — so the customer couldn’t connect to another driver to get the order delivered. Sadly, the customer says they’re embarrassed and “a little upset,” and they’re now asking for advice about what they should do.

Some people in the comments told them there’s nothing they should be embarrassed about because, as one person commented, this whole exchange was creepy and uninformed. Another person said that they should file a safety incident with Uber, saying that they were “little creeped out & embarrassed by his unsolicited medical advice and religious chastisement.” This is one I agree with.

In addition to possibly getting this driver booted, no one should be letting their religious beliefs get in the way in a situation like this, especially considering it’s stranger that you’ll likely never see or encounter in life again — one whose life situation you don’t even know.

It should be noted here that Uber Eats policies allow delivery persons “the right to decline any delivery opportunity offered to them.” However, this situation is a bit different; not only did the delivery person refuse the delivery, but they also seemed to block the customer from getting another delivery person by not canceling the order. We reached out to Uber for a comment on the situation and will update when they get back to us.
