A Foodpanda delivery rider, Muhd Saifuddin Mustafa, recently took to TikTok to vent his frustration over what he claimed was unfair treatment by the company concerning his salary payment.
The viral video, which has racked up over 882,800 views, shows the 28-year-old alleging that he was shortchanged by RM300 on his paycheck.
Saifuddin, a stage three cancer survivor, expected RM800 but received only RM500.
He claimed that he never canceled orders and had a high delivery rate.
“RM300 means so much to me”
With Hari Raya around the corner, the missing RM300 is a big deal to him.
“RM300 is a significant amount, especially since I urgently need money right now. I haven’t paid my rent in my village for six months, and I had to borrow RM1,000 from my foster mother to buy a motorcycle and work as a food delivery rider,” he said in the video.
Despite reaching out to Foodpanda, Saifuddin said that the company insisted the payment was accurate and that his account suspension was due to frequent order cancellations.
Although he provided evidence to support his claims and email the company, he lamented that Foodpanda didn’t seem to care.
WeirdKaya contacted Foodpanda for their side of the story, and a spokesperson confirmed that Foodpanda Malaysia is aware of the allegations. They have taken steps to get in touch with the rider to gather more information on the matter.
