The jokey things they encourage people to tweet about having ordered from Eat24 are really something. (It would be interesting to think about what some of the messages in them are; I think there's something more than talking-to-little-kids there.)
Now where have I heard this before?
"Take a look at your fingers. Identify the ones we like to call thumbs. Give them a pat on the back (if you can find their backs) and thank them: up till now, they've been doing all the work."
--An instructional video for the Sega Activator
Come to think of it, maybe that's it. Maybe it's just a matter of today's marketroids having grown up with the twee faux-edginess of old commercials for Sega, Mountain Dew, Air Jordans, Bubble Tape, etc. and thinking that's just how you market to people, especially young people.
Eat24 also really sucks at handling account cancellation/deletion requests, above and beyond the degree to which their customer service has gone to hell since the Yelp acquisition. I've been trying to cancel and delete my account per their privacy policy for almost a week now, and oddly enough, it's become impossible to get anyone to respond via email or website messaging. So that's more time wasted and frustration added. Thanks, Eat24!
(Postmates is good, too, if it's in your area, but the fees can get a little spendy.)
Ubereats actually comes in cheapest if you're ordering for just yourself, no need order extra food to hit a delivery minimum.
