A social media user who ordered a single can of Diet Coke in the early hours of the morning was left surprised after a courier delivered multiple bags of food and drinks instead.
The TikTok user, posting under the handle leahscoobydoobydoo, posted a video on August 19 detailing the unusual delivery. She explained in the clip that she had ordered a Diet Coke through the Uber Eats app at four o'clock in the morning, but received a vastly different order when the courier arrived.
In her video, which was highlighted by digital publication The Daily Dot, she showed the bags handed over by the delivery driver. Inside were 12 bottles of Coca-Cola, three jugs of milk, and several containers of food.
Uber Eats is an international online food ordering platform that allows customers to request meals and groceries from local establishments. TikTok is a global short-form video platform where creators frequently post personal anecdotes and viral social media content.
Online viewers react to the delivery error
Commenters responding to the video suggested that the delivery driver had accidentally swapped her order with another customer's delivery.
One commenter noted that another customer must have had a difficult morning receiving only a single Diet Coke without their intended milk or food. Another participant in the discussion stated that she enjoyed when delivery services made mistakes that resulted in receiving extra items, while a third commenter asked why such occurrences never happened to them.
Previous complaints about courier deliveries
The viral story follows a separate report shared by a Reddit user who described taking revenge on an unhelpful courier. According to the man, the delivery driver rang the intercom at his apartment building to request entrance into the lobby, but then failed to come up to his apartment floor to complete the delivery.
