Email to owner and corporate:
I don't know who needs to hear this but you have a very serious problem in the Jeannette, PA store. The behaviors in this store are not compatible with a viable business.
Upon drive thru arrival, the order taker was not listening and I had to repeat my drink order. I ordered Pittsburgh Creme for 3 of 6 donuts. When I asked if they had any coconut donuts, she said "we have no donuts with allergens". I don't consider coconut an allergen. So, realizing that they took donuts off the menu due to allergens, I asked (I subsequently determined it was Jackie, the manager) what donuts they did have (because, also, 75% of the time, they are out of alot of donuts). Jackie responded, "We have all our donuts". I have NO idea what kinds of donuts are included in "all our donuts". I asked Jackie again what donuts they had. Instead of telling me, she asked me, "You want me to go through 33 donuts"? I told her I cannot order donuts when I have no idea of the names. She intolerantly started telling me the donuts. Ten in, I told her double chocolate and asked if they had white creme/powdered. They did so I ordered two of those.
When I got to pickup window, I handed a coupon (prior receipt with survey code on it) to the male. A minute later, he came back to tell me they don't accept those coupons. I told him I just used one. He applied the coupon and told me moving forward, they won't be accepted. No one was wearing masks or gloves. Gross.
I asked the male the name of the female employee who took my order. He told me that he knew no names (while laughing to instigate) and refused to find out for me. After I asked to see a manager, he laughed again and tauntingly responded, "So you want to see a manager, huh?" I said yes. Jackie came to the window with a very bad aggressive, negative attitude before I even said anything. I asked her if she wanted me to pull up to talk so the line would not be held up. She told me no and that I was a waiting customer and she could talk there. I explained I wanted the name of the drive thru taker because she did not listen to my order and I had to repeat it more than twice. Jackie refused to give me her name. I ultimately learned it was Haley, her name was on the receipt. I told Jackie I needed to talk to her about the customer service and the rudeness of the male. She responded, "Oh, he was rude? OK." She wasn't accepting my complaint about his rudeness and him laughing at me when I asked to see a manager. Jackie's demeanor degraded rapidly. She could not have cared less about my complaints. I asked her why they no longer took the survey coupons. She said they stopped taking them over two years ago and that they stopped giving paper coupons years prior. That was a lie, I used one the prior week with no problems and just this year, got a survey code for doing a survey. I asked her why the store would provide a free donut with the purchase of a drink if I did a survey and not honor the coupon. She lied again and said, "The coupons state at 'participating stores My 8 paper survey coupons in my purse DO NOT have a statement written that says, "at participating stores". She continued to argue with me about that. I told her there was a serious customer service problem at the store. As I started my car to leave, she yells at me, "speaking of customer service, you need to leave because you are holding up the line." This coming from the same troll who told me I did not need to pull up to allow the customers behind me to get their orders. As I began to pull away, Jackie said, in front of at least 3 employees that I could see through the window, "She can go f&%k herself."
Upon arrival at home, I noted they ripped me off of $.23. I was entitled to a free beverage for my birthday. They did not reduce my bill by the $3.50 for a large iced coffee. They only reduced my bill by $3.02.
Furthermore, I REPEATEDLY told Haley the french vanilla creamer needed to be sugar free because I am diabetic. My receipt shows 4 vanilla shots, NOT 4 sugar free vanilla shots. I have been calling the store since 11:46 am to find out if the vanilla shots were sugar free. Despite me calling the store 34 times in 1 hour and 30 minutes (see screen shots below), no one has answered the phone. I cannot drink this coffee until I can confirm if the vanilla shots were sugar free.
My friends/family have banned this store for their food and drinks for very similar behaviors of staff and the incompetence in the filling of orders. I have reported problems with this store dozens of times.
Why aren't the paper survey code coupons being honored? Jackie told me she has worked there for over 2 years and in that timeframe, no paper coupons were given or redeemed as they are now emailed instead. Those are both lies. There are no restrictions on these coupons.
Does this incident comply with your customer service standards? When/how should I go f&%k myself? read more
