Anyone use the 7-Eleven app for delivery?

[Lemondropkid]

Yes I know they are everywhere, but a Thai neighbour watching me carrying water back to the condo recommended the 7-Eleven app last weeek.

Have to say I'm very impressed, have only used it for water delivery. It's a real feel of 42 degrees outside in Bangkok today, carrying water gets sweaty quicky.

Ordered 12 large bottles of 7 select water for a bargain 98 baht. Unbelievably there's no delivery fee, the girl from my local 7 delivers it on the bike, ringing me up on her way. Ordered at 14.40 was delivered not long after 15.00

Tipped the girl a whole 20 baht, she was suprised and delighted. Guess being a Thai area no one else is daft enough to tip🤑

Anyone else use the app?

I have seen the drivers in the shop, but never thought to order myself.

No delivery fee is unreal considering how cheap stuff is.

I wonder if there is a minimum order value.

I read there was a sub-set of items where no fee is charged- happily water is one of them. 

There may not be a minimum as they seem geared up to carrying small items on a scooter for local delivery. I'd suspect if you ordered a 10 baht bottle of water then you would find a delivery fee being added🙂 But me spending 98 baht, £2.20, $3 is pretty minimal.

As a casual tourist I avoid apps of any kind. So just out of curiousity, how is payment done?

Pay cash on delivery? Paid by CC on each purchase? Drawn from an online account at 7-11? Line pay app? Or something fifth?

I pay by cash, there was an option to pay by True Money(which I don't have). Didn't investigate the other options to much as only make a small purchase.

Even as a casual toursit you should consider Bolt, save you get ripped off on taxi fares but up to you as they say😁

Another vote for Bolt, some of the MC riders are slightly unhinged, but overall not bad. I always tell them to avoid Beach Rd due to the BiB doing their charity collections - but that often gets lost in translation. Car is bloody handy if you're not in a hurry and fancy some AC.

Bolt is also useful for the areas where Taxis aren't easy to find. We used a Bolt car to go from Soi 10 to Oxygen Pratumnak a couple of years ago, easy to get there and easy to get back.

I always tip the drivers as well. Can't be easy being hated by Baht Bus drivers, Motorcycle Taxi guys and regular Taxis all at the same time.

Years ago I checked on their delivery app. At the time it was in Thai only, so of course I fcuked it off.

Maybe that has changed now.... I need to check. 

 

 

Some of their drivers drive like complete maniacs.
