  1. [R1] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 2/5 · US The app is bugging: It wouldn’t give me my welcome reward and I’m new to the app never used it
  2. [R9] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 3/5 · US .: It was good at first but now everytime I use it it just says that “there’s a hiccup in progressing your payment”
  3. [R10] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 1/5 · US 7/9/26 Frozen Baja Blast now showing NOT available: Title: if you can’t or won’t provide my Frozen Baja Blast at my preferred Foxcroft Avenue, Martinsburg,WV. I’ll be damned if I order any more from YOU! 7/2/26. I see the regular Baja Blast but I want FROZEN!!! Title: Tried a g a I n! Tried to separately add to my bag. I see it but Everytime I tap, nothing happens. I’m losing my patience!!! T
  4. [R11] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 5/5 · US My favorite: I’m always happy when it’s lunchtime because I get to order all my favorite items from the Taco Bell fast food and delivery app it’s always fun because there are such great deals and the food is delicious and the bonuses make me feel really acknowledged from all my commitment to this amazing establishment thank you, Taco Bell
  5. [R2] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 4/5 · US iOS interface overhaul: I love Taco Bell. I have unironically spent thousands of dollars on Taco Bell over the last 10 years. I have never had any sort of issue ordering and/or picking up my food. *THAT BEING SAID* I feel the layout of the iOS app needs to be changed because me and my girlfriend keep exiting out of our orders instead of adding them to the bag. I know this sounds silly but I promis
  6. [R3] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 3/5 · US Fix app location tracking: The app should prioritize and remind the user what location to drive to and suggest the closer location. Currently the location just keeps the last location used. I will change my review to 5 stars once this is fixed.
  7. [R7] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 1/5 · US App is broken: App does not work in any capacity
  8. [R12] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 3/5 · US Good until updates: They need to stop logging me out. Most aggravating thing with this app. Your login sucks, doesn’t work half the time. Stop logging me out and let me use the app as usual. Besides that works great.
  9. [R6] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 3/5 · US High prices and no deals. TRASH: The app is decent enough but Taco Bell has the worst “deals” and rewards in the fast food game. Very rarely is there any deals and stuff. Cheesy Gordita churn h price has went up $1 in a year. TERRIBLE!!
  10. [R22] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 2/5 · US Hidden fees that won’t appear until the order is put through: Thought my total was going to be 30 like it showed then once the order went through it jumped to 45 dollars without asking me about any of it. I wanted to use this instead of the door dash because I had a gift card but DAYM! I would have saved more on door dash lol
  11. [R24] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 3/5 · US No rewards or offers?: Honestly of all the food apps I’ve gotten (it’s nice being able to order ahead) Taco Bell’s has to be the worst. Other apps at least have consistent rewards or that one offer that never goes away. Taco Bell though, there’s nothing at all. If I’m to give them benefit of the doubt then it’s probably a bug that they haven’t fixed. Hopefully they fix it soon, I’m sure there’s o
  12. [R58] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 1/5 · US Rewards suck now: When you used to get hot tier Rewards, they were great. You could get a cheesy gordita crunch or a Chalupa or things of value. Now it's cheesy fiesta potatoes or a soft taco or a hard taco. They've taken it from items that were actually really good down to items that suck.
  13. [R15] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 3/5 · US Constantly crashes: Always crashes. ZERO customer support for messed up orders, failed deliveries, or gift card issues.
  14. [R30] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 1/5 · US Constant Mobile Order Issues: There are constant issues using this app. Staff members forget items in orders and there is zero way to refund the forgotten items. You could be in a Taco Bell parking lot and the app will select a different Taco Bell across the city from you. Then staff members are rude when they don’t have your order. This app is the biggest waste of time and money.
  15. [R56] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 1/5 · US Delivery Issue: The app uses door dash as a third party delivery and coming across an issue of giving the wrong address do the driver while it shows my location on the app as my address and when covering with driver there were complications as I was trying to go to this specific app to change of delivery or cancel/refund and none whatsoever and it caused the driver to speak rudely as he got impati
  16. [R62] DoorDash 5/5 · US The best food drop off: They are amazing great delivery if you have a problem they will refund you credits for the app or you can just get refund for the cash you paid for the food if there is a problem!
  17. [R61] DoorDash 1/5 · US don't waste your time or money: this app sucks, fees are to high and customer service is really poor.
  18. [R67] DoorDash 1/5 · US Not worth: They overprice the items significantly. You are better off going out yourself or cooking at home
  19. [R69] DoorDash 3/5 · US Door dash review: Great for convenience but just starting to get way to expensive to use anymore
  20. [R72] DoorDash 3/5 · US Changes: I used to use this service all the time. They have now started focusing only on profit instead of service. Their delivery charges of nearly $7 for a place less than 4 miles away and their increased service fees have forced me to use them only with a deal. It is a shame.
  21. [R19] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 1/5 · US Hiccup processing payment: Haven’t been able to actually place an order for maybe a year now? Used to work fine, but has decided it doesn’t want to process an order. Have tried at various locations and reinstalled the app to no avail. Fix yo app
  22. [R25] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 1/5 · US Useless: The app hardly works. I’ve had to go in and erase my payment that’s been used many times and re enter it for it to take my order. This has been my experience almost every single time I use this app.
  23. [R36] Taco Bell Fast Food & Delivery 1/5 · US Horrible: Takes the money but then will tell me there was a hiccup. How is there a hiccup when the money was taken?
  24. [R70] DoorDash 1/5 · US Constant mess ups with orders due to delivery drivers: It saddens me to say that I’ve spent a lot of years using DoorDash and a lot of money for DoorDash to constantly have my orders mixed up messed up, delivered wrong or with issues
  25. [R73] DoorDash 1/5 · US Did not receive item. DoorDash refused refund: Had an order where a $7.00 item was not with my order. Clearly shown on the picture the dasher took of the order before I even touched it, that the coffee drink was not there. DoorDash refused me a refund. Wouldn’t even give me credit. So DoorDash quite literally stole from me. I tried to escalate it up the ladder, to no avail. Never in my life have a
  26. [R78] DoorDash 3/5 · US Refunds: I order less because they no longer give refunds when errors are made.
