    I was on Sam's Club about 10 min ago on membership service. There is a lady name Janet. She called me on line because there was no one but me and made me wait for more than 10 min, I was standing there by her counter, she was busy on talking pretending that she is helping the other coworkers taking on different languages and giggling laughing, I'm not very happy at all with her service. Please make sure we got helpful people around customer. Thanks

    I recently had a very disappointing experience at the Sam’s Club customer service members. I approached a customer service associate for help, but they were extremely rude and dismissive. Instead of assisting me, they responded in a very unprofessional tone and made me feel like a burden. As a long-time member, I expect basic respect and support from staff. I reported the issue through official channels, but no resolution was provided. I am sharing this here in hopes that Sam’s Club takes this seriously and addresses the lack of professionalism among their staff.

    I am Eduardo **, I've had a SAM membership for seven years. In the last few days, I've had to change my card six times because the system doesn't recognize it. The manager and employees tell me that I should keep the old card and throw away the new one; this isn't true. Finally, today, April 4, 2025, after changing my card six times, it started working. But the conclusion I've come to, is that the customer service from these employees and the manager was poor.

    Sam's Club seems is continually out of products, especially eggs. Eggs are a big issue. Eggs have come down 50% in most areas but Sam's Club continues to have a shortage of eggs and have not decreased their price. This is especially concerning considering this supposed to be a retail Warehouse makes you wonder.

    I have been a Sam’s Plus member for over 2 years. I have ordered packs of Spring Water almost routinely. About 2 months ago, my delivery never showed up and it appeared to be stuck in NY. Why it would come from there is beyond me, but they did credit my acct. Ever since, I can no longer order these packs. I use to LOVE Sam’s for the convenience of not having to lug from the store to my house. Now, I will give Costco or BJ’s my business. Damn shame all because of their mistake!

    After spending almost 500 dollars online for a curb side order, and driving an hour to pick up, we were shorted 100 dollars worth of items and did not realize until we were home. It took me over an hour and a half to get refund my 100 dollars, and then had to figure out dinner plans for the kids, because several of the items were for the evenings supper. Moral of the story, check your curb side items, even if you have to look at them all in the parking lot. They may just decide to not give you something…

    I went to the Sam’s club at 1401 Alliant Ave in Jeffersontown Ky, trying to get assistance with my expired membership. The customer service employees had me standing around for over two hours and then called the police saying that I was using profanity. Never once did I elevate my voice. They gave me the support phone number and they walked off. I contacted the support phone number and was inconvenienced then my call dropped. When I called back the employee was being rude and wouldn’t help me. I’m very disappointed in your establishment treating me like an animal. All I did was walk in and I was treated like I wasn’t important. These behaviors are very unacceptable.

    I just checked my checking account and there is a renewal charge for Sam's Club, First off I have never agreed to an auto renewal or given them my debit card information. The only card "tied" to my account is an old charge card that is no longer valid. The ONLY way they could have had my debit card information is if they are storing the information from the point of sale. Then they decide to charge you whenever they want. I already contacted Chase Bank to report an unauthorized transaction. I will not be renewing and I will start going to COSTCO.

    First problem with Sam’s Club is they now only have one real person check out lane which takes far longer then it should, they want you to do all the work at self check out just to check your receipt and items anyway when you leave (this is so old). In order to make my purchases easier I signed up for a SAM’s Club credit card and to get extra savings BUT BUYER BEWARE, after years of using the card I got a $ 40.37 charge on my account from Payment Security so I called in to file a Fraudulent charge to Synchrony Bank but when I did I was told I can not file that because come to find out that company is owned by Synchrony Bank and it is a some insurance charge that I never signed up for or authorized. After several phone calls and 3 hours of wasted time I told them I am going to have file claims with both Attorney General and the BBB so I had to close my account in order to stop them making these FRAUDULENT CHARGES.

When I see the message from the bank asking me to approve the transaction I also see the same exact charge on another one of my credit cards at that time. They ran it to multiple cards that had been used this year. I caught it before approving the second transaction and losing 11 bucks twice but the trust is broken.

    I had a dispute of membership charges tonight, I called and twice was hung up on. 2 years ago we cancelled a business membership and opened New account. However, it was apparently not cancelled and for 2 years Sam's club charged my boa card $50 for both years. I spoke with 3 people and hung up on by 2 of them (3rd person did call back). They said they would refund 1 but not both. I offered a solution of a gift card to reimburse And Still was told no. This was not my error. Yet Sam's Club as large as it is Can Not make it right. Final response I was told "someone will be reaching out to me within 24 to 48 hours". Ya I bet. I won't hold my breath.

    I need to share an incredibly frustrating and disappointing experience I had today with Sam’s Club regarding an online order pickup. I placed an order online and added my mother as the pickup person, just like their website allows. The email confirmation stated she needed to check in via the app upon arrival, but she doesn’t have the app, and I couldn’t check in for her because the app requires location tracking.

    Despite my mother having the order number and a valid ID—exactly as their policy states—the store refused to give her the order. Instead, they told me I had to download the app and check-in from 30 minutes away, which obviously wasn’t possible. When I called the store, the first employee put me on hold without even asking my name, and after nearly 10 minutes, the call was dropped. When I called back, another person answered with no introduction, so I politely asked for their name. Instead of answering, they became defensive and refused to tell me. Turns out, this was the store manager, who still wouldn’t give me their name and escalated the situation instead of resolving it.

    Meanwhile, my mother was stuck in the parking lot for almost an hour with a child in the car. When the manager finally came outside, she was rude, yelled at my mother instead of helping, and told her to move her car without even introducing herself or resolving the issue. Then she had the audacity to blame my mother for the delay, saying she should have known she needed the app—even though the ordering process never stated this. What made this situation even worse was that my young cousin, who was in the car with my mother, became so upset and scared by the manager’s aggressive behavior that he had to put his board game up to hide his face. No child should feel that level of distress just because of an order pickup.

    To top it off, when I tried reaching customer service, the wait times were ridiculous, and the chat support was completely unhelpful. Instead of addressing my concerns, they offered me a $6 credit, which is honestly insulting after everything we went through. Nowhere in their process does it say the app is required for pickup. The confirmation email even states that if someone else is picking up, they should speak with a team member. So why was my mother treated so poorly and refused service?

    Because of this awful experience, I will not be renewing my Sam’s Club membership and will be switching to Costco. If this is how they choose to treat their paying members, then they don’t deserve my business. Something needs to change, and I hope they take accountability for their lack of professionalism, misleading policies, and terrible customer service.

    I expect a formal response and accountability for the actions of the employees and manager involved. This includes retraining on proper customer service and clear communication regarding order pickup procedures. Additionally, I would like a written apology and a meaningful resolution that compensates for the extreme inconvenience and stress this situation caused. If Sam’s Club values its members, they need to make this right.

    WARNING. If using Sam's app Scan & Go. DO NOT USE THE "CONTINUOUS" DCAN & GO OPTION. It beeps once for each item but it will charge you for multiple of the same items. If I hadn't of double checked everything the app would have charged me for an additional $212.00 worth of merchandise. I scanned one sweatshirt and it charged me for 4 of them. Other items it charged for me 2 and 3 items instead of 1 item. Plus there was a 20 cent difference for 2 of the same items. Also doesn't always give the advertised discount amount. When they were checking my items at the door. I mentioned it the employee. She immediately asked if I was using the "continuous" scan. I said yes. She immediately said...."Don't ever use the continuous scan." I said so the store is aware the app does that and she said YES!!!

    Even when I deleted the items and rescanned them. It charged me for multiple items. I had to individually delete the extra items. Then made sure to count the items and made sure it matched their apps count. Guess that's why the app makes you "click" yes for confirming you counted your items and you have the correct amount of items.

    On 2/8/25 I received my delivery, which included old & mushy strawberries & avocados. I could've just called and gotten a refund, but I wanted to show you the product I received. The Rep at the counter could care less what was delivered. I requested a refund and said I would pick my own. She gave me the receipt and I went to get the 2 items and a few other things. I paid using scan & go and left. Once I got to my car, I was putting my receipts & Sam's Plus Credit Card away when I noticed the refund for the items I returned was an egift-card.

    I go back in & ask for a manager and it's the same lady that gave me the egift-card named Yolanda. Yolanda claims that she assumed since I was rebuying the items, the egift-card was better because it takes so many days to receive a refund. I told Yolanda she should not have changed my request for a refund, and not even tell me. I paid for all my items and did not use the egift-card because I thought it was a refund for my returns. I took all my groceries back into the store to get a refund and repurchase them to use the egift-card because Yolanda claimed she couldn't change it once she gave it to me.

    In other words, your Rep tried to screw me out of my refund by giving me an egift-card instead of a refund like I asked. So, Sam's Club is screwing Senior Citizens out of their refunds because if I hadn't looked at the receipt, I would've thought it was credited back to my credit card. I asked for another manager and spoke to Diane, who instructed me to file my complaint here, which is probably a waste of time, but I'm going to post my experience everywhere and make sure everyone knows that you're giving egift-cards when a refund is requested and not even letting us know. If it was done to me, I wonder how many other elderly people have been screwed out of their refunds. Also, next time my purchases are old & mushy, I won’t bother trying to return them.

First time I don't receive one of my orders, I go through online chats and calls with support just for them to not process a refund and imply that I'm lying about not getting the order. Other companies that I've bought from handled situations like this much better, and at least would offer some store credit or process the refund fully.

    I have been a plus member and a business member since 1991. I JOINED IN 1991 in Ybor City, A Tampa neighborhood, I was so fed up. I would have left by 2008 if my wife would instead shop with BJS or COSTCO, both of which I enjoyed simultaneous memberships with when I lived elsewhere.. I had a car accident in 2005 leaving me without mobility. They always violated the spirit of the law w/r/t the ADA and seldom offered accommodations. When they fail at something and accept a return it could take 90 days to get a refund after they accept the merchandise returned. Their internet service on groceries is abominable making substitutions you didn't ask for and delivering food that had spoiled.

    I paid for a delivery 24 hours before it was to be delivered yet they took my money, promised delivery, didn't and expect me to wait 7 to 10 days for a refund I didn't ask for. I am disabled and depended on delivery. This forces me to pay a second time and no doubt they won't have everything I order, as had previously occurred many times. If after 34 years this is how they treat you no one that has a choice should give the business. My town now has close to 200,000 people and I pray competition comes to the area. I'm too far to receive delivery from BJS in the next town or I would have renewed my membership.

Today the package was left in another building and a neighbor was kind enough to bring it to me. Since we now have to order a minimum of $50 for shipping the packages are almost always very heavy and due to the fact that I am very old and have health issues I am unable to lift and carry them.

    I placed a large order on Sunday. There was a snow storm coming, so I decided to have it shipped instead of my usual delivery. The order was broken up into five separate shipments, which is understandable. Some of the shipment was due Monday, some a week from Monday and some two weeks. Two weeks? I just had an order shipped from Germany and it was here in five days, but whatever. They send email thanking me for the order. Then they send email on Monday saying some of the order was out for delivery. A few hours later, they cancelled part of the order. Then they sent another email saying it was out for delivery. Next the email said some things were going to be delayed for two weeks, including the items they had just cancelled.

    I started a customer service chat and asked with status was. An agent named "Eden" responded that she was sorry I was missing an item. What? I never said I was missing an item- I'm missing an entire shipment. She replied to check back later, they could only get statuses if there was a tracking number. Then she said I could cancel the order and reorder everything for delivery or curbside pickup. I asked if I could cancel the entire order because following six different shipments was really awkward. She said no, only shipments with a tracking number. I asked which shipments have a tracking number, she said she didn't know, but she would send me an update when she found out.

    At that point, I asked how I could cancel my Plus membership, which I had renewed in December for $180. She disconnected the chat without another word. I've been a Sam's Club member since the 90s, but I will be cancelling my membership and going to Costco. I didn't sign up for a Laurel and Hardy routine every time I called customer service.

    Why is milk so expensive at Sam's Club. Higher than other food grocery stores in my neighborhood and higher than Walmart? I have noticed you have to really watch the prices in Sam's Club. You will pay more for some items than at local grocery store. Member's Mark Vitamin D Whole Milk 1 gal. 4.26. Walmart- Vitamin D whole milk 1 gal (great value) 2.78. Food City whole milk 3.99. I have noticed this happening frequently. Why pay for a membership and plus if you have to pay more for merchandise?

    This concerns the Sam’s Club store, No. 4861, at 1725 34th St North, St Petersburg, FL 33713. With this past visit, every one of the pick-up parking spaces was occupied... 95% of the parking spaces were filled with a vehicle withOUT a driver. I actually had to wait for someone to come out of the store, from doing their in-store shopping, before a pick-up space became available. I have reported this, in after-purchase surveys, over & over; yet, nothing gets done about the problem! The wife and I are seriously considering switching to Costco because of this continuing problem.

    Put in order. Had changed primary card. Got the email from the store. It showed primary was changed back to old one. John at the local store would not cancel the order. It had not been 5 minutes from clicking on order to calling store. He then said no such order. Told me to contact the corporate who told me to call store. After all this time the manager starts being a bully to get me mad so he can hang up. Have emails saying I did not want call from local. Have copies of all emails and screenshots of all chats. Even got someone saying he was a supervisor and he was Mel Gibson and I have screenshots to prove everything. The manager put all the blame on corporate saying only they could have cancelled order...

    Very disappointed in Sam’s Club right now…. Purchased a tv in March 2024 with the warranty however apparently the cashier scanned the wrong warranty so now the warranty won’t cover the cost of the tv with accidental damage (the entire reason I bought the warranty to begin with.) Called customer service and they refused to honor the warranty or give any kind of resolution…. Want my money back for both the tv and the warranty due to the failure of the company to do their job!!!! It is not my fault the wrong warranty was scanned. I will be contacting corporate as well as filing a complaint with the attorney general's office and Better Business Bureau.

    Sam's Club customer service number used to be great. They are clearly outsourcing it now to another county. The representatives don't speak good English, the hold times are horrible, and then no one can really help you. I called about an order that was never delivered and the tracking showed was obviously lost somewhere. They said they were emailing me a gift card for the items (after a much longer than needed conversation and hold times). I never received it.

    I called back. After trying to transcend the language barrier, they finally understood that I never received my gift card. It turns out it was sent to an email address I haven't used for six years and no longer have access to; they have no idea how they have that email address for me (the online site in my account shows the correct current email). So they now need to transfer me to someone in the gift card center to help me. The wait time is 45 minutes plus it says I am next in the que. I don't think anyone is ever going to answer. This is ridiculous!

Then if you only make minimum payment 27.65% interest on unpaid amount monthly. These fees FAR EXCEED any money saved by the lower cost of their products.

    Sam’s Club online ordering system and customer service have been the worst experience I’ve ever had as a customer. When I placed an order online, a system error caused the same item to be ordered twice. Trying to resolve this was an absolute nightmare. It was extremely difficult to get connected to customer service, and when I finally did, I was bounced between departments with no resolution. The entire process took hours just to speak with an agent. When I finally managed to talk to someone, they told me to contact them again an hour later due to another system issue.

    When I called back as instructed, I was told that because more than 30 minutes had passed since placing the order, they could no longer cancel it. This was beyond frustrating since their own system error caused the duplicate order in the first place, and I followed their instructions to resolve it. The lack of accountability, poor system design, and unhelpful customer service left me feeling like I had been defrauded. I cannot believe how unprofessional and inefficient Sam’s Club online services are. This experience has been an utter disappointment and has completely tarnished my trust in the company.

    We purchased the package of universal California tickets and they “give you” $20 dining dollars for each ticket you purchase. We bought 4 tickets and they sent us $80 total in dining dollars. They make it seem so great until you try to redeem them on the website and you have restrictions on which restaurants and you can only use one $20 dining dollars at a time but in order to redeem them you end up having to purchase a $50 gift card so you have to spend $30 of your own money to redeem it. We tried to redeem it at bubba gumps restaurant which was on the list of places we could redeem at and ended up paying $80 out of our pocket that we were not planning on paying. I would not recommend doing it. I sat on hold trying to get someone to help and no one knows anything and kept passing me around and the verdict ended up being wait for the dining dollars to email us back about the dispute which they did and was not helpful at all. So yes Sam’s gives you a discount on tickets but if you’re planning on the dining dollars for food DON'T!

    Absolutely horrible customer service for online purchases! The representatives were nice enough but completely ineffective with being able to address the problem. I ordered a children's electric car for Christmas. It shipped later than expected and when it was finally delivered I realized they sent a $40 kids scooter instead of the $200 electric car. I called that day and was told they would be issuing a refund but that it would take 7 to 10 business days, which also excludes the holidays. So it is now Dec 24th and I have yet to receive my refund in order to replace the item I never received.

    Additionally, when I called on the 15th I was advised the item was no longer in stock so they couldn't even send the correct item to fix the problem they created. When speaking with the customer service rep again today, I was advised it could be until sometime in January before I receive my money back. Completely unacceptable to take that long to process a refund for an issue that was due to their error. Now I am stuck the day before Christmas without the gift or the money to purchase it elsewhere and they could provide absolutely no resolution to my problem. This was my first purchase at Sam's Club and will definitely be my last.

    I've been a member for 20 years, but not any longer. I chose not to renew my membership the last time I shopped even though it would soon expire. I purposely chose "no" to the renewal. Times are hard, my husband recently retired after a fight with cancer and we have to budget. Our children have all grown and moved out, so we don't shop as often or as much. To my dismay, the card I used the last time I shopped there was used to renew my membership without my approval or acknowledgment. I did not use that card for my renewal (I have a separate card I use for memberships and subscriptions.) The fact that the payment information from my last purchase was stored and used left me feeling violated. I called customer service and was confirmed that the practice is to use whatever form of payment made in the store if the original form was unable to be billed.

    My items 10lb. Bacon and 36 pk Dr. Pepper was not delivered to the correct address. I have also noticed with other deliveries that people are allowing others to pickup these orders to make the deliveries. My problem is that it’s mostly non English speaking people that do NOT know how to read English and follow simple directions to deliver or the driver is just out right stealing the items. No picture shown. Very inconvenience to me as I have event that I will now lose $$$ on.

    Have been a Sam's member for over 30 years. I was Double charged for two items that I didn’t notice until later. Called the store, the young lady in customers service said nothing they could do and she cannot give a refund because we left out the store before we noticed and because people steal. My thing is they have the cashiers to ring up large items from the carts so it’s the store fought for her mistake also. Cashiers do make mistake. This is the first for us. Out of $32.96 not including tax. I understand some people may steal, but where is the fairness to those that don't. Make sure to check your receipts before walking out the store.

    Sam's Club is discriminatory against military families! We pay for PLUS for the free shipping, but have recently been informed that we must pay $14 for shipping now because we have shipped to 10+ addresses. Apparently, they think we are resellers. I have explained that we are a military family. We utilize the site to ship items back home before we plan to visit as well as gifts to family members so we don't have to pay shipping. They also do not take into account that military families move every 2.5-3 years. This year alone, we have moved to 3 different homes (to include AirBnBs while we find our forever home). Our military family will no longer be supporting Sam's Club as it is NOT military family.

I did not receive them until afternoon, so, when I contacted them, I was told it will be delivered by end of the day, but it did not happen. I again contacted on 10/09 and I was told there was a glitch in the system and my order was stuck. I was advised they will do the inquiry, find out what has happed on ship ASAP. And again, they did not do it as I was told. I waited until 10/14 but nothing happened. When I called on 10/04, Annie(Enny), a from Problem Solving or something department told me she will find out exactly and call me back which she did not. And finally on 10/15 in the morning, they sent me email that the product is out of stock and hence my order is cancelled. I seriously wanted that order for gift.

    On Saturday, May 11, my husband, his 14-year-old son, and I visited Sam's Club between four and five in the afternoon. We renewed our Sam's Club card before doing our shopping. While in a rush to leave, his son wanted a box of bubble gum that was not available for purchase. After confirming there were some in stock on the Sam's Club website, we asked an employee to check for us. The employee found them stored high on a shelf and estimated it would take 10-15 minutes to retrieve them. We decided to forget about it for now, but his son was upset. My husband eventually grabbed the bubble gum, prompting another employee to scold him for taking them without assistance.

    Despite my husband apologizing and agreeing not to do it again, the employee continued to be rude and unprofessional. I went to search for an item while my husband and his son went in a different direction. Another employee later approached them, yelling at my husband for a second time about the incident. My husband reiterated that the action had already been done and asked what they wanted from him. After checking out, my husband and his son went to order food while I waited by the food tables with the cart. My son expressed feeling uncomfortable as he noticed all the employees and managers staring and talking about us and the incident.

    About five minutes passed when my husband quickly exited the line to ask me a question. As he walked back to rejoin his son in line, two managers abruptly approached him to discuss the incident once again. Frustrated, my husband questioned what they wanted him to do and suggested putting the item back, as it had already been resolved. It seemed unnecessary for him to be confronted about the incident by four people on three separate occasions.

    Then the managers huddled and talked With each other for over 20 minutes. (See pic below) Must be nice not to have to do your job and still get paid.

    I’ve always favored Sam’s Club over Costco, but still have both memberships. Sam’s club has always been way more affordable. And until recently I’ve never had anything negative to say Sam’s club. However upon using the Scan & Go I was double charged. My bill was a lil over 200$. I visited the courtesy desk 3 times that week. They stuck by their claim that because their computers did show I was charged twice there was nothing they could do. Even after calling their own customer service. I even went as far as going to my bank and bringing a printed statement. Still nothing. I ended up having to file a claim to get my EXTRA 200$ back that they had no record of. So I understand the public’s reluctance in using ‘new technology’ with out proper customer service for help.

    It happened to my husband a few months after my ordeal. And he was simply in the self check out. So Nicholas, with this new store you’re planning to roll out with in Texas, please don’t forget about your loyal customers. As I’ve been a Sam’s club member for over 20 yrs and very sad that I was treated the way I was.

Not sure if it’s happening to me or someone else. My family is ** and stand by the line to check out, we use the Scan and go sometimes and sometimes self checkout because we don’t want to be slowly and wait in line. There are 2 lines checking out… one line is letting people go without checking or scanning items but when our turn the staff start to scan all 4 items on the cart. While she told other people… "You’re good to go sir," other groups she mentioned one by one, "You’re all good to go."

    Is it because we are ** that is why you feel racism? I don’t recommend to someone to insult the store but if it possible please provide more Training to staffs about treating customers equally because they are not asking for your services without paying. We paid for full prices. We have membership and shop every week for supporting the store even though we live down north Austin. Please see this review as important because you will feel beneath if someone treats you like that to your family anywhere else. How do you feel about this?

    My Plus Membership, which I have had for many years has changed its shipping policy from Free Shipping to Free Shipping over $50.00. While they may want to change that policy, I don't it is right that they change their shipping policy while my membership is still in effect. Any such policy changes should occur at membership renewal time, and not in the middle of my membership. If that is their new policy, I should have the option to receive a refund for the Plus membership and revert to Regular membership. I feel they have broken their contract with me. I will pursue the option of perhaps instituting a Class Action Lawsuit for breach of contract. I suggest to other members that they do the same.

I am completely done with Sam's. I recently got a large payment for work I had done. I paid over $2,000 on my card, but was declined payment 3 days later. On that same day, I also paid over $3,000 to pay the card off entirely (before I went in and was declined). I called in to find out what was the issue, and they told me a hold had been placed since I made multiple payments. Basically, I was penalized for paying my card off. In fact, the $3050 payment, made 8/15, is still on hold until 8/22, even though removed from my bank. All payments made online, not mailed in checks.

    I asked if I could be credited the ten dollars and ten cents I would have gotten (my 5% for shopping at Sam's with the Sam's card) and was refused. Once again, SAM'S DOES NOT WANT YOUR BUSINESS AND WILL DO NOTHING TO RETAIN IT. They punish you for paying off your credit card, and this is from a decade plus customer. Do not become a Sam's member. There is a Costco opening nearby on 8/28, and I will be in line to become a Costco member, goodbye forever Sam's Club. I can't wait til thousands of Sam's members in Covington migrate to Costco.

They would not provide a number to for me to contact Risk Management to discuss, and stated it did no good for them to confer with Risk Management as they would not be provided the specifics as to what the "unusual activity" was that Risk Management gave as a reason for restricting my membership. I have been a member since 2009, have one of their charge cards that are always paid timely and in full each month. Like WHAT THE HECK??

    A while back I ordered a few things for home delivery from Sam's in Amarillo. The store is located on Soncy. Online it said the delivery was completed but I never received the products. The store Manager told me they couldn't refund my money because the delivery service that they use is an independent service. I contacted their delivery service Sams uses (They chose this service, not me) and they said Sams had to refund my money. I went back and forth but never got my money back. With other stores, the store immediately refunds money but not with Sams. Buyers beware. Don't have items delivered from the store to your home. If it doesn't arrive, you are SOL. This is a VERY bad policy for Sams.

    Bought a massage chair from Sam’s Club. When it was delivered the delivery men said it was not their job to bring the chair into the house or the porch unless we wanted to pay extra. It was literally only 3 steps up into the house and another 20 feet to the living room so they left this big very heavy massage chair in the driveway. I had no cash to pay them to bring it in. I am incapable at my age of lifting that chair.

    When I called Sam's Club to find out what the delivery men should have done (after 5 tries) they said the delivery men should have brought it into my house. Sam's club said there was nothing they could do about it now. They did say they could send delivery men to take it back if I wanted to return it but not to take it into the house. I told customer service if they can send delivery men to pick it up why can’t they send men to bring it into the house? Terrible service all around from Sam’s.

    Since moving our nearest Sam's Club is over an hour drive so I decided to downgrade my membership that I have had since 2004. I called customer service on 6-20-24 and she was pleasant and assured me my membership was downgraded and issued a refund of the money not used throughout the year. Surprise to me on 7-20-24 they took out the full Plus membership fee. Upon calling customer service the first gentleman I spoke to hung on me without fixing the issue. Called back and had to explain to the issue 3 different times over the phone that my membership wasn't corrected and I need a refund of funds taken out of my account.

    I ask for a confirmation number which was given but then was put on hold for over 4 minutes just for them to TRY to send me an email for confirmation purposes that it was completed. 7-10 days to get my money back is what I was told. I shouldn't have to give a reason for a downgrade 10 different times for your specialist to complete the task at hand. I love shopping in your facility but this service was not acceptable.

    My 76 year old mother shopped in the store on July 6, 2024. A cashier convinced her to apply for a Sam's Credit card, and advised her that there was a $95 fee to apply. After paying for her items, she accepted because she was told that she was approved and gave the cashier $100 bill, and she gave her $5 change. When my mother called to advise me of this transaction, I advised her that you should not pay for a credit card, and I disregarded it thinking that she may have increased her membership and that was the reason for the fee. Nevertheless, my mother received a letter from the credit card company on 7/14 and that was confirmation that she had applied for a credit card and that the cashier had manipulated my elderly mother and "stolen" her money.

    I immediately called the store and spoke with Sharonda, Shalonda or LaShanda who advised me that they would have the cameras reviewed and give me a call back. After not hearing form her I went to the store on 7/16 and spoke with a coach named Amed who also stated that he would review the cameras and give me a callback. After not hearing from him, I called the store again several times on 7/16 and was placed on a long hold. Finally spoke with a Coach Bobby who states that per the footage, the cash that the cashier had received from my mother was place in the $20 and that there was no recorded overage on the drawer that day, but does admit that the cashier left the register to obtain an ipad. In my opinion anything could have happened with the cash when she walked away from the register. I am trusting my mother, and will never allow her to shop there again.

    Sam's Club. Ref# **. Jenilee took call 6/27 3:29pm. Had a AGM battery installed, associate was in a hurry as it was a bit after 4:00pm PST & I had been researching batteries all morning, finally deciding on the Sam Club purchase. I am a car enthusiast, and my car is well kept. My car started right up and things seemed normal, until I wanted to see the battery that was installed to make sure the date on it was a current date…. I could not open my hood with the release.

    I went back to Sam's but the tire center was closed. I proceeded to return next day and the associate was very fidgety and stated, "I’ll open it". I asked, "Do you have a lift for the car so you can go underneath to release it?" He said, "Well, no… so do this. Go get an estimate, and we will pay for it." I thought that was odd, as if to admit something that did actually happen and also explain his jittery attitude when I picked the car up.

    Before I left Sam's, I asked to speak to a Supervisor, just forward thinking, and I met Stephen (a Supervisor Staff Coach) who was nice and told me not to worry about anything. So after I dropped my wife off at work close by, I did take it to Toyota to have them look at it and see how we could open my hood…. Spending 3 hours at Toyota was not my plan but after the diagnostic I was told it needed a new part and labor is extensive as the cable goes through the firewall. I paid 256.00 and they ordered the part. That was Wed, June 26. I bought my battery on Tuesday June 25.

    When I finally met the manager, this morning at 8:30am, he in very few words called me a liar and said “good luck. I'm not helping you." I said, "WHAT??? I bought a top battery from you, your associate told me what to do as he probably knew all along what happened or what he did, and now after wasting my day yesterday to bring you my paperwork, this is how you treat your customer? All I know is, I bought a battery, you installed it and I went to look at it to check dates and my hood latch was broken…. HOW DO I DESERVE THIS TREATMENT YOU ARE GIVING ME?" I even have proof from TOYOTA that the technician stated something like this can only happen with excessive force.

    My hood latch has always been easy release and maybe he didn't know that or rushed quickly and yanked it, this I do not know- All I know is, I cannot open my hood today to even see the battery I bought 2 days ago now. This is NOT acceptable and is completely uncalled for. The Battery/Tire Manager at #4704 Fresno store, Darren had a big attitude and was quite sarcastic in nature to both myself & wife. So, going on 4 days now and I cannot even see the battery installed in my vehicle that I bought on the previous Tuesday and I hope to God that I do not need any road service or engine treatment during this time as this is my only car.

    This is specific to the location in Las Vegas on Pecos, just south of Tropicana. Here it is; Saturday - mid afternoon... lines going more than 50% to the rear of the store, and other than the self-checkout stations (that had even a longer line) there were 2 registers open..moving at a snail's pace. The manager was standing attempting to direct traffic of people who had been standing in line 30+ minutes.

    Numerous employees were doing other misc. jobs / positions. I confronted 4 of them at one location & ask about this. They all laughed, agreed to the absurdity of the situation, and pointed at the manager. (A customer walking by & overhearing me was irate over the time he had wasted standing in line.) Maybe your manager needs to go make a field trip to Costco to see how this should be done; meaning schedule the proper number of employees and have a sufficient number of registers open..at least on weekends. Is this manager trying to get a "pat on the head" for saving the company a few dollars from the salary of some people qualified to operate a cash register?? Nice job....

When I went to the scheduled appointment, I was told they were only going to turn the tires. I had to tell them to re-balance the tire after aligning the tire mark with the valve.

    My car was raised, tires taken off, and nothing was done for over 2 hours while I watched and waited. Only 1 other car with a flat tire was worked on. They were going to charge me for the re-balance until I stated it was their error for incorrectly installing the tires in the first place. Then came the attitude.

    I needed to make a small return recently to Walmart. It was 3 unopened cans of Rust oleum paint. I paid about eight dollars a can, but because I didn’t have a receipt, Walmart wanted to give me three dollars a can for my return for a credit. But this was after a “know it all clerk”, with zero authority, Chris, (Bay Pines, Fl), who couldn’t provide the return rules to me (and neither could the manager) told me that there is no store credit at Walmart. Which is a blatant lie.

    I called corporate Walmart, and they agreed, it was a blatant lie. At another Walmart nearby I bought a bunch of clothes, took them home to try on and had returns the next day to the same store with my receipt, Again, an unethical, uneducated, untrained clerk told me that Walmart didn’t take returns even with the receipt. So, I packed the stuff up and went to a different Walmart where they took everything back. So beware customers. Walmart & Sam’s are poorly run & district managers allow peons to make up or change the rules as they go and managers couldn’t care less.

    I was accosted at the check out door in Woodstock after first purchasing my several items. The young man at the door asked for my receipt which I had just placed in my pocket. My arms were full of groceries but he demanded I produce a receipt. When I asked where should I put these items he stated "I don't know but I need the receipt". There was no table there nor did he offer to get a cart for these items. I had to place my groceries on the floor as you walk out to produce the receipt. I stated, "Well I hope Sam's is happy with this because it's all about Sam's Club right?" He looked at me then stated "yes it is" and dropped the receipt on the floor instead of handing back to me. Sam's has real issues in how they treat the customer. I have cancelled my membership.

    I call the 1-888 number on the back of my membership card. I was attempting to refund my membership. I was greeted by someone whose first language was not English. She tried to tell me the ref # but I couldn’t understand her. I asked to speak to someone who spoke English. I waited on hold for close to 10 minutes. I was finally connected to another person who, despite having shared all of my security information with the first person, asked for that information again. I gave it to her and was hung up on.

    To eliminate further frustration I went online to Sam’s Club chat service. To enter into the chat you have to enter all of the previous information I shared on the phone with the two other representatives. The chat begins and I type what I need. I then am told someone else would need to help me. That representative joined the chat and proceeded to ask me for the same information I entered before joining the chat. When I said that I had already entered that information I was told that representative could not gain access to that and I could not be helped. Close to an hour of my life wasted because Sam’s Club out sources their customer service call center outside of the US to people who struggle to speak English.

    I am writing this review for non businesses / small families. We’ve been SAM'S members for years. Membership was $10 a year and buying in bulk truly reduced costs. Years later for $35, then $40, then $45 but at least you had free shipping and most items there was cost savings. Today, to receive free shipping you must pay for ‘plus’ membership at $100 a year. Not all items are available in the store and have to be shipped. Regular membership is now $50, which only gets you access to the store. All perks only apply to ‘plus’ members. Bulk buying still saves or at least breaks even but the savings margins are much smaller, meaning SAMS is passing along less and less of their negotiated bulk pricing with suppliers.

    I have now made multiple bulk buys from other sellers and without leaving my home - and have them delivered to my door for free. Yes, SAMS offers the same IF you also shell out $100 year. With savings now pennies on the dollar - that’s a lot of purchases to justify extra expense. I have found it so much more cost effective to shop elsewhere and now check almost everything before going to SAMS. Here are a couple of recent examples: McCafe Decaf Kcups 96 count, SAMS $39.98 box (must purchase online, not available onsite) plus $8.28 (modified) shipping. Other well known retailer $34.99 per box with free shipping. Compared totals for 3 boxes, $104.97 vs $128.22. This also results in paying less taxes.

    Purchased gas at the Panama City FL SAMS recently, only to drive down the road and see it's 11 cents less per gallon at two regular gas stations. Savings also applies to quality; purchased their better ‘hotel’ line of towels. They were shedding terribly even after four washings and had thinned considerably. Two had thread pull lines in them. Returned them and purchased ‘hotel’ line at a department store. Paid $2 more per towel. However, they didn’t shed in wash even once and have gotten even softer after regular use. Low quality has been experienced with several other products bought at SAMS, meaning SAMS is also skimping on quality and selling it for more.

    I know this is not on all products, not everyday on gas, etc, but it has been experienced so frequently now and cost savings elsewhere so significant, it can no longer be ignored. This has been our experience and thought it worth sharing should someone else consider paying a company to shop with them - only to find any savings do not justify that membership cost.

    Went to my local Sam's Club - location #6540 - JW Clay Blvd, Charlotte NC on 3/28/2024 and purchased items. Was on my way towards the door to exit, but needed to have receipt checked by an associate. I waited in a single filed line waiting to get checked, so another associate comes up to assist with checking receipts. As the person is being checked in front of me, the associate that came up called for the line to split and she would start checking receipts. As I tried to move over to her line to have my receipt checked, she starts to yell at me and tells me not me and refused to check my receipt. I asked the associate why she couldn't check my receipt, her excuse was that I was splitting the line. This was the most ridiculous thing I had heard.

    This associate was down right indignant. I asked the other associate checking receipts who the manager on duty was and this indignant associate blurts out, "The manager is right over there" and continues to argue and act totally ignorant while other customers are around. I went to the manager on duty who was running a register at the time to vent my frustrations with the associate and the assistant store manager looked as though she was a deer in headlights. The assistant manager indicated the store manager was on vacation and would be back the following Monday.

    When I left the location, I called the complaint line for Sam's to report my experience. Needless to say, I had to call the complaint line back two times before I got a representative that even cared about my experience. I requested in my complaint to have the district manager call me regarding my experience. Of course, I received a phone call back from the assistant manager I initially spoke with when the situation first happened. This assistant manager was well aware of what happened because it was explained to her previously. As you can see it is April 30, 2024 and I still have not received a call back from the store manager, district manager, or received a resolution to my case.

    I do understand that Sam's is very inefficient when it comes to customer complaints and caring about how their customers are being treated. I've never had this experience with Costco and I had a membership with both. Even though Costco is further from my home, I will make Costco my main shopping big box store. I will never shop with Sam's again. I spend a considerable amount of money when I shop and if Sam's Club is so unconcerned about what happens with the customers that support their business, I don't need to have any dealings with them at all. I would encourage anyone to make sure you're respected wherever you spend your money. Sam's officially dropped the ball and the associates are so arrogant because they work for an organization and leadership that will allow such behavior to go on.

    It is with great disappointment that I feel compelled to share my experience with Sam’s Club. As a paying member, I had anticipated a certain level of customer service and consideration, but my recent encounters have left me utterly disillusioned. One of the most fundamental expectations when patronizing any establishment, especially one that charges for membership, is the provision of basic necessities. Shockingly, [Store Name] fails to provide even the most essential amenity – water. In an era where hydration is paramount, the absence of a water fountain or accessible drinking water is an astonishing oversight.

    It's almost as if the store's management believes that our membership dues aren't worth the provision of such a basic and universally appreciated service. What's more concerning is their blatant disregard for their patrons' well-being. The absence of a water source becomes an even more critical issue when one considers the necessity of taking medications promptly. Are we to believe that the health and comfort of their customers take a backseat to their profit margins? It's hard not to be cynical when faced with such a glaring contradiction between their stated commitment to customer satisfaction and their actual practices. The most alarming aspect of my experience is the apparent strategy of attempting to force customers into purchasing their products.

    Not only are they charging for a membership, but they seem to continue to capitalize on the almost gone pandemic to exploit their customers further. It's disheartening to witness a business exploiting a global crisis to bolster their earnings, rather than genuinely supporting their community. This reveals a lack of ethical integrity and a misplaced focus on profit maximization. In a time when genuine concern for customer well-being should be a top priority, Sam’s Club appears to have lost sight of the essence of customer service. The absence of basic amenities and the evident profit-driven mentality only highlight the disconcerting priorities of this establishment.

    As consumers, we should not stand for such blatant disregard for our health and comfort. I implore others to consider these factors before choosing to support a business that clearly values its bottom line over its customers. In conclusion, my experience with Sam’s Club has regrettably been marked by disappointment and frustration. The lack of accessible water, the apparent exploitation of the pandemic, and the overall lack of consideration for customer well-being are indicative of an establishment that has lost touch with the principles of genuine customer service. It's high time that businesses are held accountable for their actions, and I urge prospective patrons to think twice before supporting such a place.
