The store at 2853 N Center St Hickory NC 28601 is not the reason for the low review. The store and…read morethe employees within are amazing! However, I made a gas purchase in the amount of $80.72 at the location on 10/17/22. On 10/20/22, I received an email from CheckRedi (apparently a third-party collections company CircleK uses to process the EasyPay) indicating that CheckRedi was charging me an additional $35 for the purchase because the original payment did not go through. I might add that I have never had an issue with CircleK EasyPay previously, and I actually have enjoyed the convenience of the EasyPay system. I contacted CircleK customer service via telephone and email explaining the situation. I received no response from either. I contacted CheckRedi and explained the situation to 3 different managers. They were absolutely unapologetic and were not willing to admit the ACH transfer could have been a glitch or in error. I told CheckRedi that I was disputing the $35 charge from them, however, I would absolutely agree to pay the original purchase amount I actually did owe. CheckRedi would not accept this. I then started to CheckRedi that I am officially disputing the charge and will take this to whatever level needed to expose this egregious customer service. Well, here we are. When and IF CircleK customer service gets back to me and resolves this issue, I will surely change the nature of this review. I trust this will happen in time as I have no reason not to expect otherwise. However, I believe CircleK needs to understand how the actions of CheckRedi are detrimental to the customers of CircleK. This is NOT who you want to represent your company.

I pumped my gas, then headed over to get a car wash. The young guy explained the various full service options and helped me to select the best one. He even explained the point system to receive free washes with their loyalty program. In the past I've had anxiety about going through the car wash because my wiper blades almost got ripped off. The owner Steve walked up and said on the Lexus you just hold up the gear and it keeps the mist wiper sensor off. He was very confident and convincing. Now I was comfortable proceeding through. I could tell this was some high-tech cleaning machines like no other I had been to. Once the wash was over I proceeded to the full service drying station. The guys vacuumed and cleaned my car like a professional detailing company! I was beyond pleased. I've never received this service at any other car wash! They even asked me to look it over and if anything needed more attention. Wow! All that for only $26! I waited in their comfortable waiting area. Which had tvs and lounge chairs. Not your typical waiting area. I decided to go inside the market and check it out. This was not your average gas station. When I tell you this was the cleanest store I've ever seen. They sold everything from clothing to wine! I took advantage and did a little shopping while there and purchased some soft served ice yogurt with toppings. Y'all it was too good and inexpensive. This was hands down my best experience and I'll be coming back twice a month. Check back for more reviews on this business. You will definitely not be disappointed.

Grease Monkey seems to be the area's basic equivalent to Jiffy Lube, Valvoline and the like, that I…read moreused before moving here. They seem to be very professional, courteous and informative when it comes to the basic service I went there for. I'd gone there during the winter to get Nitro in my tires, while I was also planning on getting my usual 3,000-mile oil change. It was the good folks at Grease Monkey who explained that these days, and with the 2003 car I have, oil doesn't really need to be changed more often than 5,000 miles -- I'm old school, and have always used 3,000 as the rule. Point being, they didn't have to tell me what they did -- it showed that they were more interested in good service, over agreeing to a premature oil/filter change, and making money when it wasn't necessary. I passed on the option for synthetics and combos thereof, and went for the basic 30-weight oil. Folks were very friendly like I'd mentioned. Since I don't work, I went and drove by there when it looked as though they weren't taking care of many customers, so I don't think I was there longer than 25 minutes, and got everything done. There were no high pressure sales for unnecessary things either, which I appreciate. I'll be using them from here on out, or will change this review if they're not as good as what I've seen so far.

In any event the team here were very professional, friendly and quick to figure out how to fix it. It took some definite problem solving which I think they enjoyed. Their pricing was extremely fair on top of that. I'll be moving to this area in a few years and hope they maintain all their good qualities. I surely would go back.
