  • Why was my order rejected by the store?

    If the store rejects your order this means they either did not have the items you ordered in stock or were simply not able to deliver on time due to high demand at the time you ordered. If this happens, we suggest you place your order with an alternative restaurant.  If you've paid via card or EFT, your Mr D Credit Wallet has automatically been credited to the full value of your purchase.

  • Why did my order fail / why was it cancelled?

    If your order fails or is cancelled, this means your driver was not able to complete the collection or delivery. This rarely happens but common reasons are items being out of stock, the restaurant being closed upon driver arrival and even load shedding. We investigate every unsuccessful order  and we use the information to continually improve our service.

    If you would like to know more about the refund procedure when a failure or cancellation occurs, please reach out to us on WhatsApp on 087 362 8200

  • Need more information on a restaurant's menu or pricing?

    All restaurants set their own menus and prices on the Mr D app.

    Whilst we encourage our restaurant partners to keep their menu and prices on the app the same as their in-house menu, some restaurants choose to increase their prices for delivery. 

     

    When menu items are excluded, this is usually because they're not suited for delivery or are exclusively reserved for in-house dining.  

     

    If you have further questions regarding a menu item or specific restaurants pricing, we suggest you contact the restaurant directly to clarify. 

     

    Alternatively, you can click the thumbs down button below and log a query. We will liaise with the restaurant on your behalf. Please note the turnaround on queries for restaurants via our customer services team may have longer turnaround times than normal queries.

  • Why do I only see collect as an option?

    If you only see collect as an option for a restaurant you'd like to order from, it could mean one of the following:

    • There isn't a driver available within the area of that restaurant and your address at the time of your order.
    • This restaurant and your address are too far apart for us to ensure your food arrives in the quickest possible time so we aren't able to offer delivery. 
    • This restaurant and your address aren't within the same service area. In rare cases, this can mean that a restaurant nearby may not be available for delivery.
    • Delivery services haven't started yet for the day, therefore only collect is available.

General Delivery Queries

  • How long will delivery take?

    On average it takes 35 minutes from when you place your order for your food to arrive fast and hot at your door. This depends on the time it takes a restaurant to prepare an order and the distance a driver needs to cover from the restaurant to your doorstep.

     

    When you select the restaurant you want to order from, we give you an estimated delivery time to ensure you know how long delivery will take from the specific restaurant you've chosen. We'll also keep you updated throughout the journey, from placing the order right through to delivery.

  • Why do some restaurants only have collect as an option?

    If you only see collect as an option for a restaurant you'd like to order from this either means:

    • There isn't a driver available within the area of that restaurant and your address at the time of your order.
    • This restaurant and your address are too far apart for us to ensure your food arrives in the quickest possible time, so we aren't able to offer delivery. 
    • This restaurant and your address aren't within the same service area. In rare cases, this can mean that a restaurant nearby may not be available for delivery.

Code Of Advertising Practice

  • What are the codes that govern our advertising practices?

    We may occasionally update this document. When you use our platform, the current version

    posted on this page is applicable.

     

    MrD is an inclusive brand which strives to represent a culturally rich and diverse nation. All
    imagery and communication published or associated with MrD must align with the company’s
    values.


    This advertising code sets out our commitment to all commercial advertising on the MrD
    website and associated apps, to ensure that all such advertisements are lawful, honest,
    decent, truthful and transparent. Adherence to this code ensures MrD remains a trusted brand
    and a responsible corporate citizen.


    For purposes of this code:
    “commercial advertising” means all forms of paid-for advertising on the MrD website
    and associated apps, which includes advertising display banners, carousels, pop-ups,
    and boosted search result product listings like sponsored ads; and
    “advertiser” means the entity at whose instance the advertising appears, depending on
    the circumstances it may be MrD or any other third party (for instance an outlet or
    restaurant trading on the platform).


    Commitment to lawful advertising
    Advertisers must ensure that the commercial advertisements on the website should be in full
    compliance with all applicable legislation and regulations.


    Commitment to honest advertising
    Advertisers must ensure that commercial advertisements should not, when considered in
    context, be so framed as to abuse the trust of the consumer or exploit their lack of experience,
    knowledge or credulity.

     

    Commitment to decent advertising
    Advertisers must ensure that commercial advertisements should not, when considered in
    context, contain any foul language, obscenities, defamation, hate speech or derogatory
    comments.
    Commercial advertising should not, when considered in context, contain anything which might
    lead or lend support to acts of violence or criminal activity, nor should they appear to condone
    such acts.
    Commercial advertising should not, when considered in context, contain any negative gender
    stereotyping or negative gender portrayal.


    Commitment to truthful advertising
    Before commercial advertising is published, advertisers must hold in their possession sufficient
    documentary evidence to support all claims, whether direct or implied, that are capable of
    objective substantiation.


    Commitment to transparent advertising
    When our customers search for products on our platform, any paid-for boosted search result
    product listings which appear with the organic search results should be marked as a
    “sponsored” product listing. Transparency ensures that our customers are aware that these
    search results have been paid for by advertisers.

     

    If you do not think Mr D, or any advertiser on the Mr D website, is adhering to our commercial
    advertising commitments, please let us know by emailing advertising@mrd.com.
