How to avoid deactivation on Gopuff
Almost nobody loses their account out of nowhere. The triggers repeat, the metrics have known thresholds, and the evidence that saves an appeal gets created before the problem, not after. Here's what deactivates Gopuff accounts and the habits that protect you.

The records to start keeping today
Appeals are won or lost on evidence, and all of it gets created before the problem:
- Take the drop-off photo every single time, even when the app doesn't force it. Make sure the timestamp is on.
- Keep your phone's location history on (Google Maps Timeline). It has settled more 'never arrived' claims than anything else.
- Handle every customer issue inside the app chat, never by text or phone, so the record exists where the platform can read it.
- Screenshot your ratings and stats once a month. When a metric flag is wrong, the before-and-after is your proof.
- Keep a copy of every document you upload (license, insurance) with the date you uploaded it.
If it happens anyway
Take a breath. Most notices can be appealed, and an appeal with evidence behind it is a different animal. The full Gopuff guide has the exact process, and the tool writes your appeal from your facts.
