For most of TaskRabbit’s On-Demand eta (2014 forward), taskers were expected to re-confirm The date and time of the task in task chat … even though the task request comes in with a date and time chosen by the client.
This recently ended. It was not well announced, sadly. The closest thing to a formal communication were a few comments from individual Tasker Success Managers in small Discord servers. Below is one such post/comment.
At that time, the Cancellation Fee requirements were adjusted to no longer refer to a needing the confirmation as a requirement to get the Cancellation payment.
Naturally, one would ask why this change wasn’t communicated more broadly. Unfortunately, the only people that can properly answer that… are the people who would have been responsible for the communication that didn’t happen.
This is the best we’ve got for now.
