GBWeb site does not display restaurant menu pictures properly on smartphone screens For the most part the company has been good and they work hard to add value, but at over $3000 a year, you would expect the restaurant menu item pictures show up correctly on cell phones, which is the device the majority of people use to order takeout. While my menu items photos display correctly on a PC, they display a tiny band on a phone screen, basically not showing what the food looks like at all. I was wondering why my bentobox sales are so dismal. Now I now. Customers can't see the pictures on their phones. I have reached out to support, which says they have their limitation on the template used for displaying web sites. I reached out to Bentobox Cofounder who said would look into it, but never responded back. The reason for my poor rating for the company is if a web site that is supposed to display a restaurant menu properly with the photos, cannot do that, then it is not useful. If my customers can't tell what a dish would look like on their cell phones, then the menu might as well not have any pictures at all, and no matter how much marketing effort Bentobox puts into value-added other stuff, the main premise is broken and as a result Bentobox has failed me.

GBwhere is the accountability with… where is the accountability with BentoBox? Why can't the customer contact the delivery service? There doesn't seem to be a way for BentoBox to be held accountable for the delivery service itself. Instead, the app directs the customer to contact the restaurant for status.

GBCannot use emailed promo code Attempted to use an email promo code when ordering online that was sent to me by Bento through the restaurant's website. First the application indicated that the promo code was OK but wanted me to enter a 'valid email address' which I did. The app responded by saying that the address was invalid and removed the promo code from the order. I used Firefox as my browser and have found that it doesn't always work well with a few applications. Perhaps this is the cause of the error? Nothing I tried would allow me to use the promo code. The restaurant refused to manually take the $6 off my order stating that I had to complain to bentobox.com. The offer expires on 11/26 and I don't plan on ordering from that vendor before that date. Am I out the $6? The restaurant was the Los Tres Amigos location in Mason, Michigan.

GBMassive Security Risk I used BentoBox’s Google integration to purchase a meal from a local restaurant. Somehow, a completely random person was able to call and cancel my order in the 10 minutes between order and arrival at the restaurant. Bentobox is unable to explain how this unknown person was able to get my information, call, and cancel my order. I fear my card data is now stolen. Do not use this service. EDIT: Restaurant - John Brewer’s Tavern Location - Waltham, MA Date - May 7th, 2022 I spoke to customer service on the phone right after the event and they stated they could not help or even call me back with an update. They also stated it wasn’t a security concern, refused to escalate to a manager, and ensured me it is simply an “engineering issue.”

GBThey let you order from closed restaurants, and your first clue is a 3 hour pickup on a 30-40 minute order I ordered via bentobox with availability for a pickup order within 30-40 minutes. Then the email showed up and said the food would be ready in three and a half HOURS. There's no way to cancel the order. The restaurant won't pickup the phone. So we drive there, hoping we can show the receipt and even if we have to wait, we can still get food, but the place is closed, during their marked business hours. They charged my card immediately, but there's no food. Long story short, double check the place you're ordering from is actually open before clicking that button.
