SURPRISINGLY AMAZING EXPERIENCE! Thank you Shakira! Someone give her a raise! Up until today, I…read morehad given up on customer service in Atlanta. It's been a long time since I've been impressed by an employee in a chain. But let me tell you...... Shakira impressed me. I bought a battery for my old 1984 RV. It was the wrong one. My mistake. This old battery had the holes on the side, instead of the top. Weird. Anyway, I expected returning it 2 months later (I was busy so did not notice it was wrong one right away), would be a complete fail disaster. I fully expected to be stuck with a battery I could not use, and be out over $100. But when I called and spoke the store, Shakira efficiently explained the exchange process. I asked about Covid, and she said she would meet me out in front to exchange the batteries. When I got there, she came out, gave me the new battery, handed me the receipt, my change, and additionally, was able to get me store credit for 3 other old batteries I had sitting around. She was wearing a mask properly, and paying attention to social distancing guidelines. So I walked with a new battery, the difference in cash, AND a gift card. She was polite, helpful, AND....she managed to do all this while helping a different customer, and answering the phone inside as she was helping both of us (I saw through the window because I was outside the whole time due to Covid. The entire process only took about 10 minutes max. What a great multi-tasker. How good a business is often comes down to the employees. I advise whom ever owns this shop, do what ever you need to do to keep this employee. She turned an experience I was dreading into a delight. Keep up the good work Shakira! I will be back to this location for all of my auto needs.

He worked so hard in 100 degree heat and got that battery in and attached. He really went above and beyond any expectations I may have had. Just a really great guy who was kind and helpful and determined to make it work so I could drive home. 100% would go back to him for any reason even though there are 50 places closer to my house.

My Diehard Gold battery has been dysfunctional for a while. If i don't drive the car for a few…read moredays (about 3 or 4) it loses enough charge not to crank. When I arrived at Advance on Cheshire Bridge at around noon, I presented my issue to Tyrus behind the counter. They seemed to be short-staffed, because Tyrus and the commercial manager Sabrina were the only ones there. Tyrus made the statement that a battery will die if the car doesn't get driven. I told him a battery shouldn't die after 3 days, especially the Diehard. he seemed very frustrated with me, and I acknowledge it was already a hot day and they were short staffed. He conceded that it might be a bad battery, so he looked up my make and model car- 1999 Saturn Sl-1. There's a footnote for my car that says the replacement cannot be done by store personnel because it might take over 30 minutes to do. Tyrus was quick to shut me down. He did offer to go test the battery so we went to the car. After a quick test, he said the battery needed charging, but they would agree to a replacement if i wanted to. I showed him the bracket with three bolts holding the battery in place. he still held his ground and stated he couldn't do the work. He suggested I go to a neighboring mechanic to have the battery removed (for a fee). I asked him how I'd get the car back to advanced for a replacement. --no answer. "well they can charge this battery for you" that's not the issue. the car alternator charges the battery when it's running. We went back inside and I spoke to Sabrina. She was very cheerful, but held the line. They would not do the work themselves. I asked if they could print my receipts. I was searching my folders and didn't see them. No to that request as well. "take a picture of our screen" When David, the new manager of 2 months arrived to help out, he gave me the same story. When I told all of these people that this store replaced the battery last time, they all told me it didn't matter. when I showed Sabrina and David THEIR APP regarding Diehard batteries that it says plainly "Free installation on all diehard batteries" (no exceptions or asterisks) , David said that it wasn't in their private system that way. He says if they try to install my battery and they damage something, they would be liable to repair it. Surely there's something i can sign that waives that liability? guess not. So when I told David that I would somehow replace this battery and then let the warranty run out, and never buy a battery from advanced again, he was unfazed and didn't seem to care. Other than Tyrus seeming frustrated, the other two were pleasant and not rude. They just would not replace my battery. I'm not a mechanic, and am not good with tools. They have a battery changing cart/kit with all the necessary tools to do the job. The complication is there's a retaining bracket with three nuts--two are easily reachable on top and side near the top. the third is near the bottom on the side. In the past, they were able to have the new battery into the car in about 20 minutes. Sad that I need to find another auto parts store for my business.
