    Wal-Mart should not be in the live fish business. They do not have qualified employees to care for them. I keep checking the fish and writing to the corporate office and I still find the fish in deplorable conditions and there were dead ones left to rot on the shelves. How can we stop them? I am contacting the city and the Department of Agriculture on Monday.

    I'm disabled. I can never find a disabled parking spot at the Portage, IN store. Eventually, I got fed up and went back home or somewhere else. I have to agree with Robert about the condition of this store, it is dirty. Plus, it’s outdated. The shelves are never stocked and there are lots of empty holes on the shelves all the time. There has been more than one occasion that I’ve heard associates bad-mouthing customers and co-workers. This should not be acceptable business. I had an online pickup order for site to store and I had no idea where to go. It took 6 associates who ran me all over the store to find the correct place to pickup my order. Once I got there finally, it took an additional 20-25 minutes for an associate to step up and bother to ask if I needed help. The parking lot is ridiculous. Again, I agree with Robert: there is indeed trash blowing all over the place. I, too, am looking forward to Meijer opening up across the street.

    I went to get three items. One was a gift certificate for a family in need of food. The girl rang up the items and I asked her could she please ring up the $100.00 gift card separately. She was very unfriendly and said, "No, I cannot do that." I asked her why not as I needed a separate receipt. She said again that she cannot do that. She was not happy about me asking her again. I asked for a supervisor who came over right away and gave me a receipt. Devondra gave me my final receipt and again seemed very annoyed with me. This is very bad customer service. Usually, Walmart people are very friendly and helpful. This happened at the Walmart in Skokie on Touhy Avenue about one week ago. Thank you.

    The employee put me on hold for 10 minutes and never came back. I called to check the price and availability for my daughter's birthday present and I was put on hold. I purposely stayed on hold while I filled out this report. No one ever picked the phone back up. I have a small window to get this gift and I couldn't do so because I couldn't get any service. The last time I went into the same Walmart, I ended up putting my items down and walking out because the wait was more than 15 minutes in the checkout line.

    All the registers that you, guys, had there were only a few in use. The attitude of some of the young people working there were so disrespectful that I refuse to spend my money with this company again. Such a shame too because you, guys, have everything I need. I will go to BJ's Wholesale, Sam's Club, hhgregg or anywhere else because I just can't get any service where I want to shop.

    On several occasions, I visited the Wal-Mart store located on Rt. 58 in Lorain, Ohio and have been dissatisfied with the store. But my most recent visit to this store was tonight, 5/24/12, and it was the worst experience I have ever had. I will never go to this store again. This store is poorly managed. Everything is unorganized and there is never anyone to help you. The shelves are never stocked and tonight was no exception. It started with the cart I picked out being broken and it was exhausting pushing it around. After an hour of shopping, I went to get in line and there was one register open with 45 people (I counted them) in line. One register. There was not a manager in sight and everyone was screaming and complaining. I decided that I was not waiting in line, so I walked away from my cart just like several other people did and when I went to go out, the doors that were closest to my car were locked. This is the worst experience I have ever had at a store. I will never go to that location again.

    My 4-year-old and I walked into Wal-Mart. As we got to the door, she told me she had to potty. When we walked into the ladies’ room, the most hateful **I have met lately informed me he didn't care how old she was or how bad she needed to potty. She was not allowed in there until he was finished with the floor. All he had to say was, "The floor is slippery, so for safety reasons, could you take her to the other one?” Maybe someday somebody could figure out that women cleaning women’s rooms and men cleaning men’s rooms causes a lot less stress! When we get a Target in Lawton, Oklahoma, I will not be a Wal-Mart customer again!

    Store (Lynchburg store on Old Forest Road) advertises chicken wings for $1.49 per lb. but Kera said it had to say 'Perdue' in the ad. Chicken wings are chicken wings but they matched the other thing in the ad but they didn't have a brand in the paper. So Walmart isn't honoring the price match that they advertise. I will have to start going to the other stores to get the sales instead of going to Walmart because of Kera not matching the price. Total savings was about $1.04 from sale price advertised on a 6-lb. pack

    I am the Materials Director for a local hospital. I average three visits a week to the North Hanover Wal-Mart store to purchase various items for the hospital. I would estimate yearly purchases average about $25,000. In my visits, I hit nearly all the various departments each year. For the most part, I feel the store is well run and the staff do a good job; however, I feel the Deli Department is the exception. Sometime back, the store initiated a numbering system to help speed up service. Since then, it has only gone the other way. The numbering system is not the problem. The problem is the department usually has about five staff working; however, many times only one (20%) is servicing customers. The rest are busy making chicken, stocking shelves, etc.

    All it takes is one customer to want three or four meats, cheese, etc., sliced and the rest of the customers can expect a 10-minute or more wait. The department staff are very busy, but there should never be less than two available at all times to wait on customers. There needs to be a system in place that one or two of the other staff automatically shift their attention to the customer over restocking shelves, making chicken, etc. If the sales are such that is not doable, then they should have more staff strictly there to wait on customers. Thanks.

Kids were playing for about an hour and since it was so hot that day, we covered them again. The next day, my daughter's face, shoulders and chest have severe sunburn and rash.

    It looks like there are at least 5 similar complaints on this website regarding Equate's contact lens product! I am a physician, and I've been using Ciba Vision's Clear Care hydrogen peroxide cleaning and disinfecting system for over two years without any problems at all. Recently, due to its lower price, I tried Walmart's generic equivalent, "Equate Cleaning and Disinfecting Lens Care System".

    After 20 days of use, the platinum catalyst which converts hydrogen peroxide into pure water must have begun to wear out, and my eyes would burn upon putting in my contact lenses, despite following all of their directions. It is supposed to last at least 30 days. After switching to the other enclosed lens container, it lasted only about 5-10 uses before I was getting severe burning in my eyes. If you have a similar issue, please report this to the FDA through their website using their Medwatch 3500 form. If enough complaints are filed, they will be prompted to investigate them!

    I was in the above store this week and need to tell you how unhappy your employees are and how obvious it is to the customers who shop with you. I heard 3 employees (cluttered together) and complaining to each other about managers and department managers, telling them to go do a job and then someone else telling to do another job. They are unhappy employees and upset as I could tell the "chain of command" in the store is confusing and frustrating them. I worked for Walmart years ago in Phoenix and we did not have that problem. The dept. store manager needs to assign employees to managers and jobs so they have tasks assigned by one person. This problem causes employees to stand around complaining and you are losing productivity as empty spots on shelves attest to.

    We are disheartened that such a nice store (although too small) is such an unhappy one. What incentives are these for employees to improve productivity and attitude? That same day, I saw an employee put strawberries on an end shelf (not in the produce)! Why? He didn't like the fact that customers are always handing him things they find in the wrong department and expect him to put the item back! He and others are very unhappy and this proves it. This is not the only time we have experienced this. There are other problems, but who has the time to send a letter longer than this? I hope someone pays attention to this matter as we now prefer to shop at the Target store across the street where the employees smile and are polite. I have never heard them complain. I also enjoy receiving a 5% discount on my purchases from Target. Sorry Walmart, time to work on the management to create a better store!

I did not like the attitude when I tried to explain. There were three of them. When they saw I was right, I do not know if she was the manager or what, I did not like her when she told the cashier to "give this man his money". I really did not like that, it should be "give this gentleman his refund". I am still upset. That was about 3 o' clock in customer service.

    This is the complaint/comment against the Wal-Mart on Forest Drive outside of Fort Jackson, SC. I visited the store on Saturday, May 19, 2012. There were buggies in the parking lot full of trash. There was trash outside of the entrance door, trash in some of the buggies in the holding rack inside of the store. The floors looked like they hadn't been cleaned in weeks. Each end of the potato chip aisle smelled like fish. Upon exiting the store, I swallowed something that was flying around all of the trash that was laying around. It was disgusting. I had a cough for about an hour or so afterwards. I had a very disappointing shopping experience and I could not do the shopping that I needed to do. By this Wal-Mart being right outside a military installation, I expected the standards to be a little higher and the cleanliness of the store to be a little better. I recommend better management and a better staff.

    I won a 32" flatscreen TV in a raffle from a professional business organization I belong to. I wanted to exchange it for a 52" flatscreen with DVD player but was told that without a receipt, they could not take it back even for an exchange for a bigger, more expensive model. So I said, "Ok, I will go get the receipt from the committee member, who purchased it for the raffle." Then I was told that if the receipt was over 15 days old, they still would not exchange it.

    As it turned out, someone suggested I move one of my TVs from one room and use this 32" in its place. Well, that worked out just fine and saved me over $500.00 I would have had to spend with the exchange. I am sending out a bulk e-mail to all the members in our association telling them about Wal-Mart's policy and how I was treated and that next time we wanted to buy something to raffle off, we may want to look into other merchants.

    This store in La Marque is the worst Wal-Mart I have ever dealt with. I could understand if someone wanted their money back and did not have a receipt. But to turn down sales for almost twice as much as the original TV being returned and then to tell me that even if I had a receipt that they still would not honor it if it was over 15 days old makes no sense. That tells me I don't ever want to buy any electrical equipment from Wal-Mart, especially for holidays and birthdays.

    Falsely Accused of Theft, Walmart Overlooked Complaint - On 2/17/12, at around 7:45 pm, I entered Wal-Mart at the 5501 Hwy 6 location in Missouri City, TX (store # 2505). I walked in (no greeter present) and went to the electronics department to see if the store had the PS3 red controller in stock. Once I saw that it was in stock, I walked back to my car, grabbed my wallet, and my DVD player that my aunt previously purchased and had given to me as a gift. When I entered the second time, I purposely looked for the greeter so my DVD player could be tagged as a return as they have always done in the past and I still didn't see one. So, I proceeded to customer service. I explained to the cashier that I wanted to return this item and I did not have the receipt because it was a gift. The CSM came over and said he needed to check the serial number and told him go ahead and check it. He told me it would be a minute. I waited bout 10 minutes before he came back and said, "She is on her way." I said, "Who is she?" He said she’s the manager that is going to look up the serial number. After waiting about another 15 minutes, the manager never came over to the customer service stand, never grabbed the DVD box, or verified anything.

    The CSM returned and told the cashier to go ahead and process the refund. After the transaction was completed and the cashier gave me my ID, I was stopped as I turned around to leave the customer service stand and detained by some form of Wal-Mart security. He approached me and said, "I know what you are doing. Come with me." I asked for what and he told me, "You know you took that DVD player off of our shelves and brought it up front for a refund.” I tried to say something and he rudely interrupted and continued to say, "I saw you on the tape. You did not come in the store with anything. We know you stole this DVD player from our store." He continued to state I stole the DVD player and to come with him. At that point, I explained that I came in to see if the PS3 red remote was in stock as I had previously been to two other Wal-Marts that did not have it. When I saw it was in stock, I returned to my car to get my wallet and the DVD player that I wanted to exchange and pay the difference for the remote. I told him and the managers that they need to go and check that tape again because I did not steal anything. I proceeded to call my aunt who had purchased that DVD player and given it to me to find her receipt or CC statement to verify that the DVD player was stolen, in spite of the fact that she lives over an hour away from that store.

    They decided to review the tape and at that point I was detained by the assistant store manager for an extended period of time. During that time, I called a lawyer to let him know what was going on. After being harassed, falsely accused of theft, and detained like a criminal, the loss prevention guy and female manager came back and said, "He's good." The loss prevention guy told me that I have to see things from his point of view. I explained I understand you are in loss prevention, but I do not have to see things from your point of view. I am not on the clock and I am not in loss prevention for Wal-Mart. I explained to him that he should have had his facts in order before harassing and falsely accusing someone of stealing. He went on to say that he was told that I had stole the DVD player that I returned and that he looked at the tape and went off of what he was told. He did apologize, but that does not change the fact that I was embarrassed, detained, and worst of all, accused of stealing.

    I do have questions and concerns that I would like to be addressed. Why was I detained if I was still in the store and hadn't exited the building? Why was I even given a refund if loss prevention and the CSM claimed the DVD player was stolen? Why was I singled out? Whoever was watching the tape should have seen everything and not what they wanted to see. The loss prevention guy should have done what he was supposed to do before detaining, harassing, and accusing an innocent man of something as serious as theft. I have been a loyal Wal-Mart customer since 1986. I am one of those people who will drive out of my way past Target, H-E-B, or any other stores just to shop at Wal-Mart. I do not feel the same about shopping at Wal-Mart after this has happened. I am not taking this lightly and I need to know what actions are going to be taken. I called the district manager and left a brief message with his secretary and they never returned my call. I submitted this complaint online at Wal-Mart's website and got no response.

    I went to the jewelry department. There were two associates. One with the name tag of Juanita; she was piercing ears. There was another associate with no name tag. I was there at 19:36. The one with no tag was sitting there and talking. While I was waiting, two ladies walked off without any help. You’re losing money. I patiently waited until 19:58. I went and checked out with multiple people looking at the jewelry. It’s still 20:22. I went to the service desk and asked if there’s a manager on duty. The lady there also has no name tag. She asked why, I said they need more help in the jewelry department. She said there’s no manager on duty, so then she called the jewelry department. She looked back up and said Juanita can’t stop piercing ears to help me.

    Then I said it takes two to pierce ears. She smiled and said I said she was piercing ears. So I left quietly, went to my car and called and asked for a manager. Then, I was connected to Mario who was an assistant manager. I told him and he asked who told me there was no manager on duty. I told him that at 20:46, the lady which is now behind the service desk at the cashier for service desk. Now, I’m in the parking lot making this phone call. He said that at 8:00 he then left the jewelry department, checked out and went back to the service desk. Wal-Mart has a camera. This incident happened between 19:36 to 20:46. Normal time is 7:30. Until waiting, I left and went to the service desk to my car. If someone from this store checked the camera at the jewelry department on 05/19/2012 from 19:36 until 20:22, you can clearly see what I’m talking about.

    I’m waiting to the left side of the jewelry department and a man walked up, looked, waited approximately 15 minutes, and then left. A white lady standing there with blue shorts on was waiting longer than I did. She was still there even when I was leaving and waited on. I assumed piercing ears was clearly made more important with more number of employees. It takes two to pierce ears. This store is selling jewelry, maybe it’s more important. I just thought this is a sad situation. I was in your store more than forty-five minutes and not waited. This store is clearly losing money in this department.

Someone needs to look into the treatment of the associates to ensure equality for all. Young kids do not have an problem calling in sick or bringing their issues forward.

    My name is Ken. I am a 47-year old male and I had a stroke on Dec. 27th, 2009. Due to the stroke I now deal with chronic fatigue; my right side arm and leg are out of whack; I have back pain and migraines. I have to use the electric carts when I go to stores like Wal-Mart and others. I have been in a continuous battle for Wal-Mart to keep their carts safe and just charged up for us disabled folks to be able to use. There has been this one cart in particular that I have had the most aggravation with for the past six months. It began when I used a cart that slid some when I stood up to get an item on a higher shelf. The carts are supposed to lock in place for safety when you are not pressing the handles to make it move. I told the manager on duty and she promised me she would look into it.

    To cut to the chase, this dance went on for four more months and then this incident happened to me. I went shopping at Wal-Mart at about 1am one night and got a few items and went to my car. I sat on the cart and placed the items in my trunk and then with the last bag I had to stand up to place it. I put one foot on the ground between the cart and my car and one foot was still on the cart. Then it slowly began to move and before I could become aware of my situation (for info sake, I have comprehension and memory issues so I am slow to get things sometimes), I became wedged under my bumper and the cart in such a way that I could not maneuver my arms or legs to use the handles or push myself up. So I stayed wedged for about 15 minutes until a nice young couple came out and helped me up.

    I went inside and spoke to the manger on duty, Shirley, and was promised she would have it fixed. Now also know that she never asked how I was and never asked me to fill out a report. This same dance went on for another month with this same cart and it was never made safe and it was always put back out. I told the mangers on duty three more times and the last time I threatened to sue Wal-Mart and surprise, I got their attention. This time they had me fill out an incident report and the next day, I spoke with **, the stores head whatever. He was kind and supportive and even told me about his daughter being severely disabled and how he would be upset if she was not safe. He promised me that he would see to the matter personally and make sure that the cart was made safe or thrown out.

    Finally, I felt that something would be done to protect us from unsafe carts and I felt sure that this would be resolved soon. I took some time off from Wal-Mart because it just wore me out mentally and physically. So a month later, I went shopping at Wal-Mart and to my horror what did I see when I walked in the doors? The same cart sitting there but I still thought it had to be fixed so I tried it and to my shock and dismay, it was not. It was just as dangerous as it was before as if nothing was done at all. I was mad and hurt and disgusted at Wal-Mart and especially with ** for lying to me and not caring about the disabled and after playing the disabled sympathy card about his daughter. I went home and fumed and then called him the next morning. I told him what I thought of him and that I thought that he personally did not care about the disabled at all.

    He explained that he called the guy that fixes the carts so he did what he said he would do. I told him again what he said to me about making sure it was fixed and again he said he did what he said he would do. I told him that he was a liar because he said that he promised he would make sure it is fixed or thrown out and that he cared about the disabled because of his daughter and again I called him a liar and he just continued to explain that he did what he said he would do. So you decide for yourself if he cares about you or someone you know that is disabled in some way. What I want from this happening to me is for Wal-Mart to care about us and make it safe for us to come to Wal-Mart if we choose.

    Personally, I choose not to anymore. I do not believe liars. Thank you for your attention to my situation and I hope that you will make yourself known to ** at Wal-Mart at 5448 Whittlesey Blvd #B Columbus, GA; phone # (706) 322-8801. Please let him know what you think of his concern for the disabled. No one should have to wait that long for help.

    I have been doing the price match guarantee at Walmart for a very long time and had my first run-in this past weekend in Winston-Salem, NC. The sign hanging by the register states they match competitors' printed ads and online ads and that we don't need to have the ad with us. So we picked up five 12-pack of Diet Cokes. A local grocery store had 12 packs Coke on sale, buy 2 get 3 free. I have used the price match several times before for different items and the cashiers have never had a problem with it. The cashier didn't believe us and went to look up the price of them online. I have never had anyone do this before. I contacted the manager and she advised me that they don't match prices for this particular store. What? Where does it say that? Then she said that they would raise their price and charge me what the other store is charging for this product. How can they do this legally?

    Basically, their own employees do not even know the guidelines for this. So how the heck do they expect their customers to know what they are? I refuse to shop at Walmart until this gets changed. Walmart needs to stop this price match guarantee completely or revamp their whole procedure on this.

    Sale item charged full amount - I shopped for a bird feeder pole at Brampton Walmart on Queen and Airport Road on May 15, 2012. On the rack, item with bar code 001654402261 was at $10.00; however, Walmart charged $19.88. Next day, when I reached there to get refund for the extra money charged, they could not find the product on the rack and item was removed. I was told that they cannot do anything as item is not on the rack. I am surprised that the manager did not have knowledge of sale going on in the store. Also, in this day and age of technology, they did not even bother to look into the system to check prices and simply told that they cannot do anything. This is the lowest standard of customer service at Walmart.

    I shop at the Walmart in Windsor, Ontario very frequently. I enjoy going there for the prices and the quality. My biggest issue is every time I go there they only have a couple of cashiers out there at a time. It doesn’t matter what time of day. It is they never have enough cashes open. So, you have already spent a good hour there spending money and when it’s time to check out, you are standing there for a good half hour. It makes no sense to me when there are 21 checkouts and no one to run them. I know these employees are not paid high wages; they are paid minimum wage. And for the amount of business the stores make on a daily basis, there should be all registers open at all times. Because of this issue I have, I have chosen to shop elsewhere. Thank you.

    I am writing because I made several purchases from Wal-Mart. Each time I tried to talk with the store manager, I got the runaround. On 4/27/12, I went in the store to make my weekly purchases. Once I got to the counter again, I was given very hard time when I began to use my coupons. I ended up paying more than I should have because I had mostly free coupons. I was asked to separate my order. When I did that, I was told that I could use some of my coupons because they were free coupons. They felt like I couldn't be getting the items for free. I worked very hard in this economic times to make ends meet, and when I got to the store, I was harassed because of my coupons. I never had this kind of problem when I shop at the Wal-Mart across town, but why should I have to drive 40 miles to use my coupons without being harassed? I did it this week because on 4/27/12 when I couldn't use some of my coupons, and wasn't given credit for the items I purchased, I lost $79.43 in coupons.

    After speaking with the manager, Kyle **, I was told that they could accept some free coupons, and there wasn't anything he could do. I explained that the other stores took the coupons with no problem every time I went in. He explained he didn't take them at this store. Their number to that store is 561-795-0017. Something needs to be done about this because gas is too high to have to drive an additional 40 miles to another store. I was told that someone will give me a call back and I never received that call, when I called Wal-Mart to complain. I feel as if they just didn't want to take my coupon to have me going back and forward in different line to use my coupons the ones they would take.

    Victimized in the store - My 16 year old daughter and I were shopping at the Bossier City, Louisiana Walmart, located on Airline Drive, on Sunday May 6th at about 4 pm (To avoid confusion, I will refer to the taller, older appearing male boy A and the shorter, younger appearing male boy B). We were looking at the jewelry when two black males, ages I’m guessing late teens to early 20’s, whom I now believe were trying to sneak my phone and purse. But I noticed them getting a little too close, so I looked at them and said “I’m sorry are we in the way?”, and moved aside just a bit. At this point, boy B says “no I mean we are looking at the jewelry but yall are okay“, then boy B asked how we are related. I am thinking he may know my daughter from school so I replied “I’m her mom, do you go to Northwood or something?” He replied “no but I used to.” He then asked my daughter her name and if she had a man. Both boys started laughing.

    My daughter and I simply walked away, talking about how rude and stupid they were and wondering why they were laughing, as we walked to the cosmetic area. About 2 minutes later, boy B approached us again by himself telling me boy A, whom he referred to as his cousin, wanted to “holla” at me and was pointing behind him towards my right but I never saw boy A. I basically told him I was not interested. Understand that my daughter was standing to my left, beside the front of my buggy, where my purse was with my phone lying on top of my purse. I am directly in front of my buggy holding the handle. Boy B was on my right side, he then told me boy A was just shy and said “look at him he’s trying to hide.” He pointed and even looked in the direction of the aisle that was on the left of where I was standing (we were standing in front of an outward facing shelf between two aisles) and completely opposite where he initially said he was.

    Instinctively, I looked and when I did, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed boy B quickly moved his hand near my purse and took off to my right and made a left turn which was towards the exit. Then, I noticed purple in his hand, my iPhone 4 has a purple otter box on it. This was when I realized what had happened. I had a bottle of lotion in my hand this entire time. He was about to make it to the exit and although I am loudly screaming “he took my phone!” and running after him, everyone, including the employees at the door, just stood there and watched. So, I threw the bottle at him hoping to slow him down or get some help or something, but I missed and I screamed again "he took my phone". I was yelling as loudly as I can for someone to stop him. The employees, some being male, as well as everyone else in the area, just stood there watching all of this and never tried to keep him from leaving the store.

    So I chased him out of the store, all across the parking lot and when I finally caught up to him, luckily, he handed my phone to me and said “I’m sorry, I thought you were someone else.” I was so mad I was screaming at him and really wanted to hit him so badly, but I knew better. He took off and vanished. I went back inside and 4 of the workers told me that this type of stuff happens all the time. And that earlier, the same day, the 2 guys had been lingering inside the front of the store, near the entrance. That boy B ran out of with my phone, with a light skinned female with a big afro and a tear drop tattoo under her left eye. They actually overheard them discussing who they thought would be an easy target and the 3 of them were just watching people as they came in.

    My daughter and I came in on the grocery end but went straight to the other end where they must have seen and targeted us. Now, I believe that boy A was actually on the aisle to my left and the plan was for boy B to distract me while boy A stole my purse and phone. But since my daughter was standing where she was, he couldn’t. So boy B had me look away from him so he could steal my phone and possibly my purse. I think they tried 2 times before they were successful on the 3rd. I went to find the manager but he/she was not there. So I talked to the person in charge at that time, explained what happened and nothing!

    I was told how sorry he was and that there was nothing they can do. He told me there was nobody available that could even review the surveillance video. I felt like I have been violated and victimized on so many levels. Where was security? Why did they just watch boy B run out of the store right past them, why did they not call the police? Does Walmart not offer a reasonably safe shopping environment? Granted, they have no control over people that do this type of stuff. But they have total control when before the fact, they overhear and suspect them of planning some kind of crime against a customer and ignoring it and when it actually happens. They didn’t bother to even try to stop him or even called the police because a crime had been committed in their store.

    I, on my own free will and just very sudden reaction without thought but honestly expecting security to be present somewhere, go after him. But anything could have happened to me and it would have been nice to at least have the police on the way. I honestly thought that there was always a security guard in the parking lot, not that day. I did have the Bossier Police come to the store so I could make a report. Had I just left it, there would be no record of what happened. And as I have told this story, I am finding out that this is very common as is the way Walmart does nothing and they will not make a report or call the police. If you want the police, you have to call. It seems that Walmart does not want any of this in writing; they want it swept under the rug, kept secret.

    I have been shopping at my local Walmart Savoy, Illinois for over 10 years. I rarely exchange or return items. Today, my husband and I went into the store to exchange our Kindle Fire. We had the box, all the packaging, the receipt and we had bought a protection plan on it. My husband went to exchange it while I shopped for some other things. He came and found me and said they called a manager and he said no. One day out of the return policy. It had been 16 days since we bought it. I was unaware that the policy in electronics is 15 days. Okay, I have the protection plan so that should cover it. I went back to the counter myself. I have been in retail for 20+ years and I thought trying to take care of the customer is the goal. I know in my company we do whatever it takes to keep our customers.

    The clerk called a manager, Chris. I waited for over 20 minutes for him to arrive. She paged him at least 3 times. About 5 employees walked back and forth around the counter commenting on how they were sure Chris heard the page, that he is just not responding, rolling their eyes like this is common. I asked, is there no other manager working today? I know in my store we have at least 5 decision making managers working today. Walmart, as big as it is, and they have one manager working on a Sunday. Insane! Chris could not even act like a human, but acted like a robot just repeating the policy over and over. He needs a good lesson on customer service if he is going to survive retail.

    What I don't understand is the reason I purchased the protection plan in the first place is so I could deal with my local store and not go through a manufacturer. What is the point of buying protection when it doesn't protect it and it isn't convenient for the customer? Now I will be without my Kindle for probably 2 weeks while I wait for a replacement. Someone needs to look into the customer service in that store and the scheduling. I like my Sundays off too, but this is retail.

    Yesterday, May 4th, 2012, was my birthday. Since I am an avid sportsman, my daughter thought I would enjoy a day at the shooting range. She coordinated everything, the range time, targets, and purchased the ammunition from our local Vadnais Heights, MN Wal-Mart store. Due to her inexperience, she bought two (2) boxes of 45 Colt ammunition at $23.97 per box when she should have purchased 45 ACP.

    Today, May 5th, with receipt in hand, I went to exchange the 45 Colt for 45 ACP. When I went to the return counter at the Vadnais Heights Wal-Mart where the ammunition was purchased the day prior, I was rudely met by a Wal-Mart Representative who seemed happy to point out" we absolutely, positively, do not accept ammunition returns". I explained my daughter made a simple mistake, I didn't want any money back. I merely wanted to exchange the wrong ammo for the correct one. I further mentioned 45 Colt ammo was absolutely useless to me. This was met with a "Nope! Can't help you".

    Are you kidding me? Their Customer Service associate representing Wal-Mart caught me off guard & I was taken back. So I made my way to the sporting goods area to see if there was a sign or something which may have warned my daughter of some sort of a No return policy. I did not see any such warning. Extremely frustrated, I returned home. My wife & I promptly went through a year's worth of receipts. In our estimate, we spend just shy of $3,000 on everything from household goods, pharmaceuticals, pet food, auto maintenance supplies, school supplies, etc. This does not include the groceries we just started to buy at this location.

    On my daughter's strapped budget, she spent $51.36 on a birthday present she thought I would enjoy. It seems Wal-Mart is happy with their Wal-Mart = 1, Daughter = 0 scenario. No resolution in sight.

I stopped by at customer service and after waiting nearly 25 minutes, they said since I purchased gift card (obviously not free), they cannot reverse the transaction. The bottom line, I wasn't able to get $20 back like what they claimed in the written display.

A couple of days later, I received another email that stated that they may not be able to process my request because the supplier may not have enough of the product to ship. I would need to wait 10 days to see if they can fill the order, if not, they will just cancel my order.

    Meanwhile, they refunded the money on my card. I didn’t know if I should wait or order something else from Toys R Us since they were having a sale on swing sets that were similar in price and style. I figured I could wait till the last day of the Toys R Us sale. I received an email in time from Walmart that the product was in ship status and they withdrew the money again. A couple of days later, I received a call from the shipping company for Walmart. They would only be able to deliver on Tuesday morning between 9-1. I told them that that day isn’t good for me since I work and my daughter goes to school. She told me that they can do it the following week, but the same circumstances. I told her Tuesday was no good but that was the only day they were in my area. My only options were to take my daughter out of school and not work to get this delivery, have my sister who lives out of state to sit and wait for the delivery, or to cancel my order.

    I called corporate and they were no help. She told me it is really out of their hands but they could assist me and call the trucking company for me. She has no control over the shipping end of the product once it is ordered. In conclusion, Walmart just doesn’t care about their customers and eventually, it will hurt their business because I will not buy another thing from them.

One is broken down and the other two could not be found. About a half an hour later, they brought a cart to the first person waiting, which there were 3 of us waiting for a handicap cart. Franklin, the store manager, said he was sorry but there was nothing they could do. I have been living in the Natomas area now for 6 months and the third cart that he is saying is broken was broken way back then. Walmart should comply with the ADA laws and at least have accessibility to wheelchairs if there are no electric carts available.

    My spokes break a lot. And now I have to take it back to the shop to have my crank bearings replaced. I will never get another next bike ever again. I had a trek bike before and somebody stole it. So I was in Walmart where the trek was stolen and decided to try out the next bike out. I haven't had it a year yet. I bought it in January, it's been in the shop going on 3 times, when I take it in again. I take the bike in to complain to the shop about the bike and the bike shop says you get what you pay for. And this is a reputable bicycle shop. Tempe bicycle is the shop where I take my bike to have it worked on. So they sell bikes and I will be buying a bike from them and throwing the next bike away, where it belongs. In the garbage.

    My wife and I are both partially disabled. There are never enough carts for customers. We have to drive to 4-5 different stores trying to see if there are any carts available for us to shop and get groceries. I have spoken to several managers, and the attitude I get is they could care less. Yesterday at about 1-2 pm, we wanted to buy groceries. But no carts. We did not shop at Walleys. We went to Kroger. They always have carts available. They are closer too. This has been going on for several years. I do realize by losing my business, they could give a ** less. One customer is not important.

    Freezing my account at Walmart.com website - I have an account with Walmart.com for the past couple of years. My wife and I decided to purchase an iPad2 in October of 2011. I have a Walmart Discover credit card which is run by GE Money Bank. I called the credit card customer service and spoke to a representative who told me there was 6-month interest-free financing for purchases over two hundred and ninety nine dollars. I said, "Great; now I can afford to purchase this iPad2." I made the purchase through Walmart.com, received the item and was happy.

    When I received my credit card statement, I had to pay the full price. I eventually spoke to a supervisor, Valerie, who told me that it doesn't make a difference with what the representative told me about the 6-month interest-free financing. He would be disciplined internally. I called Walmart.com, told them that I can't keep the purchase. They have a no-return policy on electronic purchase after 15 days. I spoke to Jaime, a supervisor, who gave me approval to send back the item. I received emails which I made copies of what to do. "The iPad2," he told me, "go to your nearest Walmart store and have them call walmart.com to approve information and ship item back to them." A receipt was given to me which I have as proof that it was given to them. I received a credit on my account and everything was fine.

    On the January 31, 2012 statement, the amount of $536.61 was charged to my account. I did not know Walmart.com recharged my account. When I spoke to them, they told me someone went into my email account and purchased something. They told me to contact the Walmart Discover charge card account and i did and filed a fraudulent charge. I received a new credit card and they told me to cut up the old one. I received a credit. I did not make a purchase on Walmart.com until April 2012. When I received the new card, I never cleared the old card out of my account on walmart.com.

    I purchased two pairs of jeans. The account was blocked. I've been calling Walmart.com for the past two weeks to explain to them that I never cleared out my old account #. By talking to different reps, I found out that Walmart.com accounting division put the iPad2 back on my credit card statement and told me I never sent it back to them. I have emails and a receipt from the Walmart store that I did.They also made me file a credit card fraudulent charge to the Walmart Discover card, so this whole situation would go away. They get their money. My account is now frozen. And they will not look at any of the information, emails and receipts that I have. Please help!

    On 4-30-12 at 20:30, I was in Electronics looking at Net10 phones and stood there for quite a while, while the department manager, Lisa, was talking, leaning over the counter where the customer checks out, with her back turned to me as I waited patiently for her to get off the phone and ask if she could help me of which she did not. My husband, who was with me, told her that I needed a particular phone and she went behind the counter where she should have been and got on the overhead paging system to page someone else to help me because she said she had to attend to something. She had keys to open and hand me the phone but chose to page someone who never showed up, so I left the store very upset that I did not get the item that I drove in to get. This is not an example of a good manager at her level and she clearly relayed to me that there were more important matters for her to attend to than to reach over and hand a phone to me that she had the key to. I took it personal and she needs to be notified of this incident and retrained in how you acknowledge the customer and handle the situation better. She is a poor example of management at her level.

    I went into the Super Walmart in Janesville, WI a few weeks ago on a weekday afternoon to the photo department to have some old 8 millimeter film transferred to DVD format. It’s a family footage dated on 1959 found among deceased brother’s belongings marked “Trip to Conn. and Shorts.” When I walked up to the counter, I said to the associate, “Hi, can I get this put on DVD?” She proceeded to stare at me like a deer in the headlights and remained speechless a little too long. So to break the silence, I said jokingly, “Maybe not, you’re looking at me like I’m from another planet.” Then she said, “We don’t do that.” And I responded, “I’m pretty sure you do. Is there a manager around who may know?” She grabbed a scrap of paper and asked for my name, so I said and spelled Michelle **.

    Then she asked for my phone number. I felt my pockets and said, “Oh, I left my phone in the truck. Are you going to call me while I’m in the store shopping?” She then replied with attitude, “It’s gonna be at least an hour.” I was taken aback with her tone and unwillingness to ask a superior for help plus the run around with the supposed call back. So I said back with tone as I took the film and tin off the counter, “Well, I don’t have a lot of time to be screwing around,” and added I was going to go up front to ask a manager I turned around and walked out of photo department, angry.

    Then at the end of the isle where it meets the main isle, I saw a manager and two sales associates talking. I held up the film and tin and asked, “Say, do any of you guys know how to put 8mm on DVD?” The manager took the film and tin from me and carried it up the next isle near electronics and found another associate stocking. Her name was ** and he handed her the film and tin. I followed him and there was the counter person already complaining/explaining about me to ** and everyone in front of me, very uncomfortably standing there. So ** walked me over to a drop box where she filled out the envelope with my info. I began to take the film out of the canister and she stopped me suggesting that it would be better to leave it in.

    We also discussed how I was hesitant about sending more than one reel at a time for fear of loss or damage to irreplaceable 50-year-old family images of long ago passed away parents and brother. ** handled the material, put it in the envelope, sealed it, tore off the claim check receipt and handed it to me. She told me that pick up had just happened yesterday and it would be another week. I said that would be fine. She is the one gem of that department. I got a call a week or so later on 4/19/12 from the processing company out of Georgia. My caller ID read **. The person asked me if I knew if I had sent her an empty tin. I was stunned and knew for a fact there was film in there! A manager plus ** had handled it; you can feel the difference in weight of an empty tin and one with a reel of film.

    I’m 99% sure that other associate tampered with it. She had my name and I made her look bad and went to a manager, plus I gave her attitude back. I am sick over the loss of this film, which had been carefully stored for so many years, and priceless and irreplaceable images that I’ll never get to see now. I went back into the store the following day and luckily ** was there again and I refreshed her memory not that there are a lot of customers bringing in 8 mm film. She was very forthright and remembered my concerns about more than one reel and leaving it in canister and the whole situation with the counter person.

    When I told her I got a call that the tin was empty when it got to the processing company, she looked surprised knowing she had sealed it in the envelope. I told ** I was almost sure that other associate had tampered with it; she had my name from the slip of paper and access. I asked what the other associate’s name was and ** replied she couldn’t tell me, but she knew who the person/employee was. When I asked the name of the manager who had carried the film in tin and handed it to her, she thought it was **. She also assured me that Walmart would take care of it, investigate, and that there are cameras everywhere. I thought to myself, probably not inside that drop box, though? ** tried to find her manager, but she wasn’t in the back and I wanted to write out what had been said between myself and the counter person, which I have done here, before taking it to management. I got another call from the processing company telling me they were shipping the empty tin back to the store, which is where it should presently sit.

It gave me the option of looking at the availability at stores within 50 miles of my zip code and it indicated two stores had "limited availability". I called both stores and all they have is the cheap version of the grill shelter. I feel that the advertisement was a lie and intended as a come on to get me into the store.

I asked the customer service manager to ask the employee to quit speaking to me in such a manner and waving her hands in my face. At that point, the cashier became even more rude. The manager stepped in to take over for her and she walked off running her mouth. I went to customer service and requested a manager. I proceeded to wait for 25 minutes for the manager to come.

    I have no problem shopping at Wal-Mart and dealing with the rest of humanity. We all come in many shapes and sizes and no one scares me. What I do have a problem with is the lack of adequate parking for Wal-Mart's business in all locations. I have tried to get a license for a business before and I know each city requires adequate parking for each business and the restaurants inside them. I have never seen a Wal-Mart that has supplied safe and adequate parking for their facilities. I live in a bedroom community and have to travel to shop. I like Wal-Mart’s prices at Simi Valley, Oxnard and Woodland Hills stores - all in California. Wal-Mart stores always have parking spaces that are too small in rows, too close together, and lack the volume of spaces to provide for the quantity of customers. I drive a Toyota Tercel.

    There are never any empty spaces ever. I have never seen a worse parking situation, not even at the old karate studio I tried to license in an area that required one space per 10 square feet. I realize the zoning is different for a store, but the parking is horrendous, not to mention waiting in line to check out with a lack of customer help and plenty of empty check stands. I realize no one can do anything about the management and nobody is about to boycott the stores. I would suggest multi-floor parking garages and more stores or an inspection into the parking for each store as licenses require renewal. I'm sure there are some violations there. Then again, Wal-Mart seems to do the bare minimum to get away with everything, so maybe I'm mistaken. Thank you for reading. I'm just complaining.

    A couple of weeks ago, I went to the Bucyrus Walmart and purchased 4 gallons of milk. In the cooler, the sign reads $2.49 a gallon. After checking out, I saw that I was charged $2.50 a gallon. I went back to the service desk and told the associate (Tony or Tonie was her name, I don't remember the correct spelling of her name) that I was overcharged, that I was due a refund of 0.04 cents. She replied that unless it's 0.05 cents, the store does not do refunds and laughed.

    Today, I was in the store again and the milk is marked in the cooler at $2.49 but when I cashed out I see I was charged again $2.50. You may say it is only one penny, but if Walmart sells 1000 gallons a day, that comes out to a $10 overcharge. I purchase 4 gallons a week and just from me alone, they are getting 0.04 cents a week overcharge at the register. If Walmart puts a product on the shelf for $2.49, then that is the price the consumer should be charged at the cash register. I wonder who is pocketing this extra cash at the end of the day? This overcharge practice is a chronic problem in Bucyrus and I have found it several times on my receipts and always for pennies on the dollar, sometimes even in the dollar range.

    My mother tells me about having to go back and get refunds for overcharges all the time. She 76 yrs old and to her, every penny she can save will make life easier on her but Walmart does not think about this. It seems they just want to make an underhanded dollar.

I did not agree but understood. The mattress I bought was not available. I went back to customer service and was told to go to the sports section. At this point, I was angry and said no. I told the employee she was going to go get it. I had other shopping to do in Walmart. Then I told the employee there was no sign posted in the linen section where I purchased the bed. The employee pointed behind her and stated it is posted up there. At this point, I lost my temper (which I later apologized for).

    Who goes to the customer service center to look at signs before purchasing an item? I wanted to file a complaint about employees’ attitude and the lack of signage. The assistant manager shook her head yes but when asked how this would be followed up, her face went blank. She had no clue. On top of everything else, there was no bed to exchange for in the store. The employee brought a bed that cost $68 not $58 I paid. The assistant manager said no on the change out because there was a $20 difference in price. I pointed out there was only a $10 difference. The employee stated the same thing after I did.

    The assistant manager made me feel like I was robbing him blind but in the end, reluctantly agreed to do if it was not for the employee telling him to just do it the exchange would not occur. With all this said, I would like to point out a couple of things that could be changed: First, put signage on air beds even the ones not in sport medicine. Second, train the staff to not point out the policies at the service desk. Third, have a system in place to exchange items even when there is not the same product available and last, train manager assistance to have some clue on how to deal with the above information. Overall the customer service was not good on this occasion. Thank you for your time.

She repeated the order, stating that the security code on the back of my card did not match. Then she stated she was not able to complete the order as the card was allegedly not accepted. However, the charge appeared on my credit card as "pending", I found out right afterwards.

    I called Walmart.com back and was told that the charge was "on hold" and the hold would be lifted in 3-5 business days. If the credit card security code was allegedly not valid (which was untrue), why would my card be debited? This is allegedly "only an authorization hold". Walmart is refusing to lift the hold, saying it would take 3-5 days. That cannot be true. If a company can take credit card numbers and personal information by phone and process that information via a computer, and debit credit cards, the company can use the same computer to reverse charges. Walmart is refusing to process a reversal of this charge now, insisting it would take 3-5 business days for the charge to be reversed "by itself". Walmart refuses to confirm this is "only" an "authorization hold."

    The desk was not shipped out to me. Walmart stated that there was no order in their system under my name but the charge was on my credit card. The "authorization hold" makes no sense, as Walmart could allegedly not process the order. Why would they refuse to confirm what they stated? Why not confirm in writing that the charge would be reversed in 3-5 days?

    This indicates fraud, or a fraud attempt. When a charge appears on a credit card while an order does not exist, it is fraud, especially when the company refuses to put it in writing that the alleged 3-5 days hold is an "authorization hold." I don’t know if they will refund me. I filed a complaint with their BBB and attorney general already.

    I went in to the WalMart on 17 April 2012 located near Richmond Hill, GA. I knew where I was going so just headed in that direction. During my walk to the far back corner, I passed about 12 "associates", none of which said one word. I picked up my item and began to walk to the checkout, then remembered that I wanted to look at TVs. So I went to the back of the store again and looked at the wall of TVs. While doing this for about 30 minutes (I am very indecisive on a TV right now), standing in the aisle, not less than 17 "associates" passed me, with carts, without carts, without customers, on personal cell phones, in groups of 2 and 3 and not one of them stopped to ask if I needed help. I actually had to move out of the way of some of them with the carts and yet still nothing, not even an "excuse me". It's like they are afraid to help a customer. Needless to say, I left without a TV.

    I wanted to write about customer service as a whole so this is where I landed. I started out doing a survey just to write this letter but the code wouldn't work. What has happened to Wal-Mart as a whole? Your stores use to provide excellent services in all fields and that would be the one stop for all your needs. Now the employees are rude and not friendly and when you ask for help, the look on their face makes you wished you had not asked. Their body language and facial expressions make you feel like you are a bother to them. Also, now the stores are not maintained inventory wise and are not consistent in many products. The availability of many products is bad.

    This is not the Wal-Mart I used to know - the one you could depend on. You need to go back and look on the foundations that built the Wal-Mart's success. If you don't maintain it, it won't thrive as it should. Take pride in it. All things need maintaining to continue to run smoothly and to last. I write this not to be critical, but to let you know that it's sad to see a company that was built on good values lose them because of something as a broken foundation that got them there!

    Not long ago, Wal-Mart changed the formula for their Equate Ultra Strength pain relieving cream. I used the old formula for years. The new formula gives my skin a rash wherever I apply it. From reading the ingredients, it doesn't look like they changed much; however, while the old formula was more of a paste, the new one is more granulated and does not stick to the skin as well. And they had a price increase on it. So not that it is worse, it is more expensive.

    I placed an order online for a site-to-store pickup. I walked into the Wal-Mart on 86th street and went to the proper customer service pickup station and waited for about 15 minutes. During this time, four employees walked right past my husband and I and didn't ask if we had been helped. I assumed they did not work at that station, but I still should have been asked. We stood another 20 minutes after we went to the gentleman employee at the entertainment desk and he said the lady would be right with us. Once she did get there, she couldn't find the order because she typed my name incorrectly and then she went to go find the three items that we had ordered. She (I think her name was **) disappeared for another 15 minutes without an update. Meanwhile, a gentleman named ** asked if we needed help and looked up our order. He found it immediately and went to go check on it.

    They then brought the order to us and it was still missing another piece, so they had to go and check to see where that piece was. They eventually found it and brought everything out on a large cart. We ordered a twin over full bunk bed with mattresses and no one walked us out of the store, helped us to the front of the store (so my husband had to maneuver from the back of the store to the front without assistance), and no one stopped us at the front of the store to make sure we were not stealing anything (I only mention this because I find it annoying when I am stopped by the people for item that are in bags and we were not stopped for 3 major boxes). This was a horrible experience and it was my first time using the site-to-store pickup service and I will not be using it again due to this experience. This took up way too much of my time and I had already paid for the items! I will also not be returning to this store for any future purchases because there is a Target down the street that I can go to for the same merchandise.

I later was told the warranty did not cover the damage. I asked Wal-Mart to replace it as the salesman gave me the wrong information. They refused to make the warranty they sold good.

These have not been stocked for 2 weeks now. Everything else is. Another experience I had was with the meat department. I buy round steak, not thin round steak. The employee told me they didn't have any round steak and asked what I wanted it for. I told him soup. He suggested I buy chuck steak instead. I told him if I wanted chuck steak, I would buy chuck steak. These are only 2 examples.

    What I find myself having to do is get only part of what I want and then go to another store for the rest. I have decided that I will go to HEB since I live a lot closer to it instead of wasting my gas going to Wal-Mart. And, by the way, you are not cheaper on many items.

I have seen customers leaving or not shopping (as I have done) and little elderly people who could barely move and have to walk.

    This is a shame and reflects poorly on your company as you have so many elderly who shop at your store because it is hard for them to go from store to store and shop elsewhere. There are just not enough motorized carts to keep them replenished. I travel many miles to go shopping like many of your other customers do. I believe if this was corrected and improved upon, your customers would be better served and you would have more customers. Many of my friends have quit going because of this also.

    I purchased a money order Wednesday night for $600. After running my card three times at one register (2 were declined, then the third one froze the system), I was asked to go to another register. I asked specifically if those transactions were voided and of no consequence and the clerk (some ** guy named Nick) said that the register was being strange and that I wouldn't get charged. I went to another register and told the new clerk that I wanted a money order for $625 and that I had $25 in cash. So she ran my card two times. The first time was declined because the woman was an idiot and ran my card for the wrong amount. After correcting her, I finally got my money order for $625.

    I left the store. At this point, I looked on my mobile banking app and I saw three charges for $600. One was credited back within the hour and had just fallen off my statement. One $600 transaction went through just like I needed it to do. Thinking of everything being finished and that the 3rd $600 transaction would fall off just like the first one, I didn't worry about it.

    This morning (2 days later), I opened my bank account to see that two transactions for $600 posted and I was now -$42, only one of them was approved. I went to the store and after dealing with ** associates, I called for the store manager. During this waiting period, I overheard a couple associates together and one of them said I was lying and just trying to get $600 from them. Finally, the store manager showed up. I explained the situation and showed them my bank statements and they said that I was only charged once and that I had already been credited for one mistake transaction but they have no record of the second transaction and refuse to hold up their "#1 in customer service" ideals and told me they wouldn't do anything about the mistake and that I had to dispute the bank. It's not my bank's fault, it's the stupidity of Wal-Mart for hiring incompetent people to run their business. I will not shop there again and I will encourage people to not shop there ever again.

    The Vidalia Walmart store has been without the electric shopping carts for the handicap for over four months. My discussion with their management indicates that "they are on order". The lack of the shopping carts, as well as management's excuse, is totally lacking and devoid of any management concern. I did enjoy shopping at Walmart but can no longer patronize the store at 3109 E. 1st, Vidalia, GA. 30474, because of the lack of my mobility.

    Three months ago, a "manager" took my name and phone number and said he would contact me when the matter was resolved. The call has not been received and until such time. I do my weekly shopping at BI-LO, where they have ample carts and they are workable. Thanks so much if you bothered reading this far.

    My daughter, who worked at Walmart years ago, has a serious eating disorder and is on disability. At that time, she was bravely trying to work, becoming more weak and thin. Long story short, she tried to take a basket of groceries out the door. A year or two later, she went in another nearby Walmart where she then lived and tried to take food again. Both times, my daughter was starved and was waiting for insurance companies and travel to go to eating disorder facilities (there are none in my state and there were very few counselors who can help). Long story short, she has gone to counseling for years. She and her therapist wrote letters to Walmart and Hastings, where she had stolen. Hastings understood my daughter has a problem and decided to give her another chance. Walmart, on the other hand, has coldly told her no, they will not lift the no trespass order. Since then, my daughter has slipped into depression and her condition is very serious.

    I wrote Walmart and tried to tell them about eating disorders and that my daughter is a very good person with a very bad illness. I am very disappointed that Walmart would react that way. Can't they see that she wasn't even in her right mind when she did those things? What part of sick do they not understand? She has done her part and worked hard, even when there are no ED facilities here. Her therapist believed she was ready to deal with shopping again. Even criminals do their time and then are out of jail to live freely again. Walmart has labeled my daughter a bad person and has done irreparable harm to her recovery. If she dies, I hope their management can live with it.

    I didn't know that all Wal-Marts are not equal! Today, April 2nd, I went into your Wal-Mart store on Gresham Rd. in Decatur, GA to make some purchases. While I was there, I spotted some patio cushions on sale for $21 each. I needed 4 cushions but they only had 3. I waited patiently for the sales person (the only person working in the area around noon time) to check and he said the Memorial store had nine cushions and suggested I go there. I drove to the Memorial store to purchase the cushions and was stunned to learn they refused to sell me the cushions for the same price as their Gresham store. I was told by the assistant manager named **, who told me to be sure to spell has name correctly, that he couldn't sell me the cushions for the same price as the Gresham store because their cushions wasn't on sale at this store. He refused to honor the sale price that the other store had and said the prices can vary on merchandise at each store based on its location.

    I said, "Does this mean all Wal-Mart stores are not the same? How am I to know (as a consumer) that when I go to one store that I can be paying more in one store than another. I thought all Wal-Marts were the same." Guess I am wrong. He proceeded to suggest I was begging him to reduce the price. At that time, I threw my hand up and walked away. Because I have learned something new about Wal-Mart stores, I feel compelled to pass this information along to my friends and family and will consider whether I need to make purchases from them in the future. The assistant manager was sarcastic and unprofessional and I am old enough to be his mother. Sometimes we need to put people in positions who can think outside the box. I was not only buying cushions but also in the process of buying a $400 patio set. It was the loss of $40, worth the risk of losing $500. It doesn't seem business savvy to me.

We arrived at approximately 4pm and went to the sporting goods. The clerk’s name was **, an older man. When my grandson told the clerk what he wanted, he immediately became rude and had an attitude. When learning my grandson was 18 years old, he began to grill him. To make a long story short, after 45 minutes of this clerk’s hateful attitude, he refused to sell him a gun.

    May I add that T, my grandson, is an honor student and has never been in any trouble. I own a gun license and watched him fill out the answers required on a computer and know for a fact they were correct. After all of this, he informed us he was not going to sell him the shotgun. When T politely asked why he stated that, he was not going to tell him. We went next door to Academy Sporting Goods store and purchased the same shot gun in about 20 minutes, by the way for less money. You people need to know the 2nd amendment was violated yesterday. This clerk committed a crime and I will be contacting whoever necessary to try to get him reprimanded.

    You have this incident on camera. Review it. It is not up to an old worn out Wal-Mart clerk to decide who can and cannot purchase a gun.

    On 3/31/2012 at 7:52pm I went to our one and only Walmart at 2425 Memorial Dr, Waycross, GA to return some goods. I had the receipt for some of it but did not for the Leapster Explorer and 2 games. There were two customer service reps at the desk when I walked in. The first rep I dealt with returned the items that I had a receipt for and told me she would have to make a call because of the value of the Leapster items. Not a problem. After waiting 15 minutes, a call came in and the second representative answered the phone. She quickly got off and said to my husband and I, “We can't take it back.” I said to her, “Okay, why?”

    She huffed and puffed, rolled her eyes and got back on the phone and said “They want to know why.” She proceeded to say, “Because you don't have a receipt.” So my husband asked if it was possible to look up the transaction using the credit card I used to purchase the items in question (we know of several stores that can and do this). She didn't bother to ask ** (the manager) our question but proceeded to tell us very angrily at this point, “We can't do anything for you, unless you know the exact date, time, register and check.” I told her that I did not think she understood what I was asking and again repeated the question. She interrupted and said the same thing all over again, “You need to know the date, time, register and cashier.”

    At this point she was still on the phone with the manager and asked her, “Can you come talk to these people?” She walked across the room to the other customer service rep (who was helping other customers) and said to her, “I should have let you deal with that.” I looked over at her at the same time she looked at me and said, “What?!” I told her that she had customers present and that type of behavior was not necessary. She said, “I just said that I should have let her deal with you.” I told her that I knew what she had said and again, that it was not necessary. She rolled her eyes at me and quickly gathered some items in a cart and disappeared.

    My husband and I waited another 10 minutes for the manager, **, to arrive with the assistant manager, **. I told the manager that I did not think ** understood what I was asking and told her about the attitude she had. Though ** was ultimately helpful, she did blow me off with my issue pertaining to ** as quickly as she could. Not even so much as an “I'll talk to her”. Anyway, I was informed that if I could pinpoint the purchase to the day of purchase, that the CO would likely be able to track my transaction. ** took my information including my phone number to give to the CO. As of yet, I have not heard anything. We shall see.

    I frequent a Walmart in Livingston, TX and it never fails that they have about 12 managers walking around with clipboards and a full store. I'm not sure about the total number of registers but there is always about 75% that is empty. My question is, if they are for busy times, how busy does it need to get? It already is a journey just getting in and the parking lines are very long.

    So this morning, I decided to use a self-checkout kiosk, which is not a problem as I am educated. At any rate, for every third item, the voice says, "Please put your item in the bagging area." I already did this but to continue, you have to push "No" on the screen. So when it gets to the third item, it requests for a manager's help. So why don't they either fix the problem with the scale-bagging area or open and employ some more registers? What is the purpose of the registers sitting idle, especially when you can't walk for all of the displayed items in the way? It's just unused store space. Hey Walmart, wake up.

You have the option of a cash refund (for purchases under $25), a Gift Card for the amount of the purchase (for purchases over $25) or an even exchange for the product. We also follow any manufacturer's warranties. You can make up to three No Receipt returns within a 45 day period.”

    Absolute worst customer service I could imagine. I tried to order 8 items and use the "Free to Store" shipping method offered at checkout. Once I got to checkout, Walmart indicated those items don't ship to store but will ship to your home for a $140 shipping fee. I called customer service, waited for thirty minutes after incompetent Ebony said she could put me off to a supervisor (not intentionally just the way it was done). Jessica (supervisor) went to the account and claimed that items in my cart were not available for shipping to store.

    I said this is only indicated at checkout (not before) upon which then I was informed that these items can only be shipped to my home, which I believe is false advertising to offer the option of shipping to store and then mysteriously take it away whilst I check out. I say mysteriously because both "customer service reps" are unable to tell me why the items are available to be shipped to my home for a $140 charge but not for free to their store which is less than 50 miles from my home. I asked if I lived outside the 50-mile range, would I be able to use the ship to store option. Jessica said it doesn't matter where you live in your state, that those items don't ship to store but can ship to your home, which begged the question why. She stated she doesn't know why the items are only able to be shipped to home but not the store, possible issue with distribution center.

    Jessica said she only needed to inform me of what they could do and not do in regards to order but not the reason why (customer service person should never say they don't know why a certain issue with product or service is the way it is, ever). I stated that the reason you ship to home but not to store is due to the possibility that items would be at the store and perhaps not be picked up. She said I was looking at the issue the wrong way. I was absolutely livid at this point. I again restated the issue that I was offered the option and then store pick up shipment was removed right at checkout. Items could be added to cart with option of store pick up with my zip code already added and then it vanished at check out.

    This is false advertising and a total bait and switch of options and service. The fact you can ship to my home and not to your own store is total BS and furthermore, your customer service reps couldn't adequately explain why. A nonsense excuse of "distribution centers don't ship those items to Hilo store but they can be shipped to your home". I ask then, why offer free shipment to store pick-up while it's in the cart, but not when I pay for the items?

    Forcefully Jessica stated what has already been said and I the paying customer just won't let that happen. So I forcefully restated the fraud and she hung up on me. Is that customer service? I don't think so. Walmart has lost my business for good. It is $260.00 plus the future spending I had planned to do at your store for the items that are available in Hilo. Target is right across the street from your store here and they at least don't hang up on you when you want an explanation.

    I bought a $398 replacement plan along with the TV I bought from Wal-Mart in July 2009, only because the clerk said it was hassle free and even came with a gift card that would be activated once/if a claim was filed and the TV was sent to the warranty depot through Wal-Mart. The pamphlet that was stapled to my receipt said "Product replacement" but on my receipt it says two-year service agreement. The clerk told me that, "For $30 bucks, you have a guarantee that that if the TV does malfunction or is accidentally damaged, I would just call the 800 # on pamphlet and print out the shipping label and drop the box off at UPS or whatever. Once the depot got the package, the gift card would be activated and I could go to any Wal-Mart store and use the card for a new TV or anything else I wanted if another TV wasn't something I wanted to buy again.

    The warranty people from Wal-Mart said my plan was an 18-month service plan and not a replacement plan. That means they send out my TV for repair which takes up to a month to process and determine if a check will be mailed or if the TV will be repaired. My receipt says two-year product care plan and not 18 months. The problem is that I was misinformed and given info that was incorrect in order for Wal-Mart to get the extra $30 from me! That is illegal for sure and maybe a mistake, but either way, Wal-Mart did me wrong and should honor what I was told and sold, despite what is or isn't offered for particular products.

    I went into Wal-Mart this morning to buy shoes. As I was passing by men’s wear, I noticed sweatshirts on sale. The rack that they were all folded nicely on had a price on it of clearance $5. Cool, that’s a good deal. Yeah, right. I grab me a couple. Well, when I went to pay for them, the clerk calls over a manager. Then she tells me that she will not sell them to me for $5 a piece. She said they must be marked wrong. So, anyways, she started acting like I stuck the $5 clearance price on the rack. I said, “Look, lady, half have stickers for $5, some for $7, some for $10 and some even had stickers for $10, $7, and $5 on some of the sweatshirts.” It’s like they could not make up their mind what to sell them for.

    So, needless to say, the manager would not sell them to me for $5 and basically accused me of putting the clearance price on them. I told her, “Look at your ** camera—I never touched nothing.” There was a Walls work overalls that was marked down and on a clearance rack. I thought that was strange. So I looked around and there was none anywhere else at all. This was the only Walls overalls there. Ok, that must be why they are on clearance. So, anyway, them along with sweat shirts I was refused the price on the clearance rack that was listed for. I was accused of moving items and changing prices. I told them to look at their cameras and see I did not touch anything. I would like satisfaction. I would like and want satisfaction.

    Return over 90 days with receipt - You should print the 90 day policy on your receipts. The service rep said she could do a return. We paid $24.99 for the item but they said it had been marked down to $13.00. So now you will keep over 50% of the cost of what we paid for. I’m highly disappointed with your communication with your customers. Move to China. You just lost a customer. We spend about $12,000 a year at Walmart across the country. Now, we will look for Targets, HEB and Woodman’s, whatever other stores we can find, especially for groceries. No more Walmart for us!

    A new assistant told my wife (pharmacy department manager) she had till February (This was before Christmas.) to get her "outs" down to an acceptable level. In early January, she got a verbal coaching from this same assistant. My wife felt she was being treated unfairly, and via the open door policy, she went to the store manager who seemed to support her.

    Now in March of the same year 2012 (March 27), she received a written coaching for the same thing, after things had seemingly returned to normal (and her outs were down). The next time her outs were up, there came the written coaching described above in which she was told that she was not allowed to say anything in her defense (no excuses allowed) and that the same assistant had been told by the store manager that my wife had talked to her about this same assistant manager.

    I am convinced they are trying to get her to quit or fire her soon due to the higher wage she receives (She's worked there 25 years with no complaints and had hardly any sick days used.) in an effort to trim overhead. She has heard that new policies have come from the home office that is forcing this pressure on employees, but it's a no-win situation for my wife. Here are a few of the unfair pressures put on her in the last few months:

    1. Shorter hours from 32-40 varying each week.
    2. Constant removal from her department to assist others in their departments, so she has less time to get her job done
    3. Being put in a situation that she can't succeed in with some management pushing one way of dealing with her 'outs' that contradicts store policy on
    ordering too much at a time
    4. Basically, she has two hours a day to complete what used to take a full 8 hours and was told by this same assistant that since she has a small department,
    that's all she should need (small but very high volume) to get her job done but that also her "outs" were to be her main focus when she has endless
    modulars to set up and freight to put up with more time wasted with a couple of hour-long meetings a week.
    5. And the worst part is that an unknown amount of the "outs" problem is coming from receiving not doing their job with her storage bins in the back never

    holding what the records show they should have. She just found a box that was completely empty and yet it was being scanned as full.

    Through fear and intimidation at Wal-mart, I believe, it's taking advantage of the current job market to "crack the whip" (It's common to be told that if you don't like it, get out). And then to top all of this stress with the removal of the profit-sharing program that had been in place for most of my wife's career (replaced with one that only matches employee contributions), there's increasing health-care costs (for less coverage).

    My wife is breaking down from wear and tear to her hands and back and the stress with no other skills to fall back on, since she's been at Wal-Mart most of her life. I am extremely concerned for her and us (I am sad to say, mentally ill from stress and anxiety-related issues, so this is my only chance to help her), and even to make this complaint terrifies me that it will cause her more grief at work. We are just hanging on here and are in desperate need of help. (We're married 32 years.)

    I came in and bought 2 new tires for the front of my truck. I had to sign a release form to put them on the front, but whatever. After I got home, I looked at all the hoopla to see if there was an extra charge I wasn’t informed of and found this: “Customer requested lifetime tire balancing for $6.50 per tire.” Needless to say, I’m not happy because I never answered that or I wasn't even asked and I don't want or need that nonsense. They adjusted my tire pressure on my rear two tires when I had them set where they run the best for my half-ton truck, which is also not their decision. It's my truck ask, first of all. Get some people that have a sense of urgency to work for you. I’m the assistant manager of my company and would replace people that don't want to work for the guest.

    I have a 2-year old son and he was getting very unhappy. I know for a fact that in the time it took, I could have and would have done all 4 tires mounted and balanced, cleaned the rims, and replaced the stems. Take a little pride in quality service. I probably won’t be back for anything in your service center. There is certainly no “express” in Wal-Mart Tire & Lube Express. This could have all been avoided by asking and informing guest of decisions made that affect our pocketbooks. I am aware of the whole get-them-to-shop stuff to buy more, but that's not for everyone. We shop there when we need other things. When we need a tire to get other things done, a little promptness would be appreciated. Sorry for the lengthy description, but I feel strongly about customer service.

    I am an employee at the Jackson Hewitt at the Walmart 841 East Gannon Avenue in Zebulon, NC. I witnessed a customer and cashier dispute at this Walmart. I really don't know why the dispute began, but this is not my complaint. My complaint is that there were a few cashiers who worked the morning of 3/28/2012 who found the situation very funny. ** also thought it was funny that when the customer appeared to leave, she made an obscene and derogatory gesture about the irate customer because he had appeared to be homosexual. I told the other manager that seems to be above her with the fake eye and he looked at me as if he didn't care even though he said he would keep an eye on it! How? When the customer has left. Before I told him, I did see the customer still standing there but he did not witness the team leader's action.

    I took this very personal because I was treated the same way by another cashier at another Walmart, and the same thing happened. The cashiers laughed and the manager did nothing. I was disappointed by the actions of the workers and the team leader, who should know better not to increase in other possibilities of stress. Because there was an older lady who looked fearful because it took awhile for the head managers to come help diffuse the situation, she had to walk right by the cashier and the angry customer. As ** walked by the first time, I asked her "should I be fearful and leave for a while?". She said nothing but kept walking, I am not sure if she heard me or not. I am just glad the angry customer who appeared to be a homosexual did not witness her gesture because I think it would have been more trouble and yelling, possibly hitting, after that because she attacked his sexuality. What if I was his relative or a mystery shopper? If you guys decide to have a meeting on this, I will be more than happy to attend to show exactly what she did!

    On or about Jan 16-19, Wal-Mart store cashed our stolen Tax Return check in the amount of $5,994.00 at Wal-Mart store number #494 in Newnan, Georgia, which is over 50 miles from our home. The check was made out to Gary and Patricia **. However, Wal-Mart cashed the check with only one signature, Gary **, which was obviously fraudulent.

    I cannot understand how someone would cash a check without an ID and only one signature when the check was clearly made out to both parties. This has been reported to the police in John’s Creek, Georgia, who are escalating with the IRS task force. Meanwhile, we are without our return and believe that someone within store #494 was involved. This is a federal offense and hold Wal-Mart responsible for their practices on cashing IRS checks that are fraudulently endorsed. Even if fake ID was used, the check was not endorsed by both parties and should have never been accepted.

    We have contacted our bank and they were able to track down where the check was cashed. They have provided written affidavit stating that this is not the signature of Gary **. We would like immediate restitution of the full amount of the fraudulent check cashed as well as a full investigation into the matter.

    Every time I go into the Wal-Mart on 12100 Lem Turner Rd, Jacksonville, FL 32218, I have a bad shopping experience. It never fails!

    I called today (3-26-20012) to find out if I could return a phone that I bought 2 weeks ago. The first person to answer the phone was talking about their "baby daddy" and finished their conversation for about 20 seconds with whomever and then decided to say "Wal-Mart, how can I direct your call" but with a rude tone. After I told her where I'd like my call directed, she continued her conversation with the other person for awhile then redirected my call to what sounded like the same person. As I am trying to explain what is going on, she interrupts me (with a rude tone) and tells me "I can't do anything without a receipt ma’am." So I try to continue to explain my problem to her and she smacks her lips, sighs like I'm annoying her and said "Look, you just got to come up in here." So I asked to speak to a manager, at which time she hung up on me.

    So I call back. The same lady answers and she sighs and I'm assuming she "acts" like she’s going to get the manager for me and hangs up again. It happens 2 more times. I shop at Wal-Mart and spend most of my money there. It would be nice to be treated with some respect and not flat out rude. I have decided that I would much rather use a little extra gas and spend my money at Target. Like I said, this isn't the only time a person to treat me like I am an inconvenience to them, but it was the icing on the cake to make me never return to Wal-Mart again.

First, the cashier was not at her station, we waited for her return, a very short time, she came back chewing gum and did not bother to speak. We asked her how she was and she said fine - nothing more. We had a large quantity of groceries and she continued to chew her gum and looked as though we really annoyed her.

    When the last item was rang up, my daughter asked her if that was the total since she did not bother to say. She responded "yes" as though we were stupid. She muttered back the change and continued chomping on her gum. I have shopped WalMart many years, and I may continue to shop at some other WalMart occasionally but I will not shop the WalMart in Carthage, Texas.

    I am complaining about the removal of the employees that stand at the front of the stores. I believe that they are referred to as door greeters. Since they have been removed at the Princeton, KY Wal-Mart Supercenter, persons that are handicapped or disabled are not plugging in the motorized carts. Others that are very good about plugging them in are entering the store to carts that are not plugged in and charging or to ones that have been placed every which way thus making the area congested.

    I use the carts due to knee problems and the fact that the concrete floors that are in this supercenter makes them hurt more. I know that you can not do anything about customers that do not show courtesy to others but when the door greeters were there, carts were neatly placed and customers were not coming in to dead carts. I think removing the greeters was a huge mistake for Wal-Mart and its customer service. I know that some of the door greeters in other supercenters did not do that much, i.e. Hopkinsville, KY, but Princeton's greeters have always been very nice and courteous when it came to customer service. In regards to being ADA compliant, I wonder if this is being compliant by not aiding the handicapped. Also, some areas in this store are not made to get the motorized cart through. One area in particular is in the plants. The passage is not wide enough for the carts let alone a single person.

    Today, I took back to the Garner Wal-Mart a Sharp iron purchased in 2/08 which had a 5yr warranty but was defective. I did not know the return policy. I was informed the item had to be returned within 90 days of purchase. I was okay with that and asked if they had the company info on file. The CS could not find anything but I was okay because there was a website on the bottom of the iron which I had completely overlooked.

    My problem came when I went to the section to purchase an iron. The irons displayed had purchase prices. The section looked Helter Skelter and the irons displayed were mostly out of stock. I settled on an iron and looked for it. The iron I selected I took to the cashier. She rang it up and it was not the purchase price that I selected. She could not leave her register and even though she called for assistance, no one came.

    The clerk across from her left her register and proceeded to assist me. I showed her where the item was displayed and the purchase price. She took it to the same cashier who said she could not ring it due to the item not being the same. She calls for the CS again. She arrived and said the same thing. I asked for the Manager, meaning the store manager. She later identified herself as the CS manager saying, “I am the manager.” I took her back to the same area. She all but called me a liar saying the item displayed was not selling for the price displayed. I got angry and told her that there was no reason for the price to be in question if the place was in order. I changed my mind and told her I would file a complaint.

    I shop this store all the time and am a Sam's club member. The whole store always looks non-shelved and things are out of order. Please have someone address not only this situation but the overall cleanliness of the store and the availability of items.

    I've had two other unpleasant experiences at this same store. (1.) Christmas Layaway I really appreciated it but when I went to pick up the item, I was told that it was put back into stock. I waited until the deadline due to storage. The clerk told me they had attempted to contact me. I received no calls from Wal-Mart. I was in the store on the Friday night for pickup but was told the deadline had been extended. I said great since I was ready to pickup but it was raining that night and I didn’t want to get wet with the loading. When I arrived on Monday, I was told it was back in stock. The clerk who told me the deadline had been extended was working but would not admit she told me it was extended. I was upset due to my trying to get things taken care of for the children I made the purchases for. The staff of layaway came out and it seemed to me they all wanted to blame me for not picking up the lay away on time.

    (2.) The other thing is the fruit and produce section. Until a month or so ago, it never looked clean. The tomatoes and strawberries especially looked bad and usually I throw away more than I keep. I told a friend who works in a different Wal-Mart what I experienced and since that time, things have looked better. I do not intend to stop shopping the store but this is what happened to me. There is no telling what is happening for other customers.

I wanted to make a picture 8 by 10 and I asked a Mexican lady that works at the photo center if I can make a photo 8 by 10. She said yes, but in a manner that was not acceptable. She was making faces like she didn't want to be there or she didn't just want to help no one. That was the worst costumer service I ever had. She told me if I don't like the results, then go to another store, basically kicking me out of the store. So I had to go to Walgreens instead. I have been in retail for 6 years and still in progress and I always have a positive attitude and the best customer service. I leave the problems at home. I’m sorry for this complaint, but I really did feel sad how I got treated by that lady. She’s the only one that has no customer service skills.

I get my meds for this condition at Wal-Mart. I went in to get a 24 feet ladder, so that a friend could do some work for me, that I am not able to do to my home. I knew, or thought I knew, that an employee there at the store would carry it to the register for me to pay, and then out to my truck. Well first of all, I could not find someone around for 15 minutes. I finally got someone paged overhead to come help me. Finally, a young black guy showed up and when I asked him to carry the ladder up front for me, he gave an angry tone to me and said that I should have walked 2 or 3 aisles over, and got someone else to help me, instead of having him paged.

    He just stood there and refused to do it for me. Once I insisted, he left to go get someone else. Then, he showed back up with another younger black guy, and they both stood there talking about what I wanted them to do, and acted like I was lazy or being unreasonable for asking them to do it. After they asked me why I couldn't carry it up front, I got angry and just unchained it, and got it to the floor and then picked it up and carried it up front. They just grinned at each other, and walked off. It hurt me so bad to carry that ladder up there that I had to sit in my truck for 15 minutes just to be able to drive home.

    It’s been 5 days now, and I am still in horrible pain from the incident. This disease is a horrible thing to have, especially someone at my age. You have no energy, and joints and bones cripple every day. After paying for the ladder, I got a manager to get someone to carry it out for me. I told them what happened, and they said they would straighten his attitude out. I am not sure that caused me any damage, but I do know it should never have happened, and that I have been in miserable pain since then.

    I'm visiting Casa Grande, Arizona for 3 months and plan to make this my winter home away from Fernley, NV. I have been supporting your store in Casa Grande since arriving here in January 2012. Just the other day, I was wanting to develop my throw away digital camera and had taken the camera to the film department. There wasn't anything posted as far as options for one pic or two pics or CDs, etc. I asked the associate what was available and the cost. So she explained. Then I asked what it would cost to have a CD copy and then she said to ask her everything that I might want because she didn't want to walk back to her list again. Mind you, she only had to walk back 5-6 feet to her list.

    I mentioned that it would be nice to have the options displayed for customers to see what was available. She then said that usually customers know what they want. Well, that's all well and good for someone that does this all the time, but I don't always get photos developed because I have a digital camera that I had purchased from Wal-Mart years ago. This camera was a back up camera that we keep in the car just in case we don't have the digital camera. It is sad to believe that she can assume that everybody knows exactly what they want without options displayed clearly for the consumer to select. She had made me feel rushed and unsure what to order, so I hastily chose 1 print and CD. After leaving the photo department, my wife and I asked to speak to someone to file a complaint in customer service and spoke to a representative, a very nice young lady who said that she's the one to lodge a complaint with. So we explained what happened and she had mentioned that there have been complaints about her in the past and she would talk to her. The following day my wife refused to go back to the photo department, so as not to be served by the same associate.

    I said that I'll pick up the photos. When I returned to the photo department, it was clear that she had been spoken to—she gave me that look. I gave her the claim ticket; she asked me for my last name; then she retrieved my photos. I had some more shopping to do, so I asked if I could pay at the main checkout. She said no. So that was fine. I swiped my AE card and it was approved and I signed the signature pad. I placed my AE card back in my wallet and was ready to put my wallet back into my pants pocket when she asked me for ID (driver’s license) and the card to verify it was me. I have never been carded at Wal-Mart, especially when the card was approved. She was clearly trying to make her statement that she will get the last word in this matter. I purchased some more items and the more I thought about it, the more upset I became.

    In the past, I had owned a specialty retail business and if this happened to one of my customers, I would not tolerate it from my employees. But I was selective on who was in a position to be out with the customers and who was in the back. I proceeded to the front. As I was leaving I saw the first lady that I had spoken to the day before and had thanked her for following through on my complaint, but mentioned that she had just carded me as I explained earlier in this statement. When I returned back to my place of residence, I called to speak to the manager about this carding incident and how I felt I was singled out because of the day earlier.

    I purchased a DVD called The Tattoo Lady with Daniel Craig. I opened the DVD and the title of the movie was written on the DVD with a black marker. I called Walmart and voiced my concern and I was told I could get another movie or my money back. It looked like those bootleg movies. I went down there and was told to get another movie. I told the lady I was apprehensive, but she said "I will open it to make sure it was alright". Well, it was just like the first one. Like I told the young lady, anyone can make a DVD and put on it what they want. Then I was told I could not get my money back after I was told I could. I go to Walmart everyday because I like the store, but this is outrageous. I know I am just one customer, but if the professionalism that I love about the store is no longer there, I will get my movies elsewhere. To even accept and sell movies like that is a disgrace.

    I purchased a barbecue. I paid for it. I always throw my receipt in my purse thinking I might need it in case of a return. I went to walk out of the store. An employee at the door said I will need to see your receipt for that barbecue. I rummaged through my purse and couldn't find it. I said if she can't you go to register 13. I am sure she will be able to tell her I paid for this barbecue. She said she could not leave the door. I said then what do you want me to do. She said she can't let me through the door without a receipt. I went over to the cashier myself and she happened to forget to give me my receipt. She had it on her cash register and handed it to me.

    I know that your prices are good, but they could be even better if you did not pay someone to stand by the doors making people feel like a criminal. I was very embarrassed, angry, and felt very at a loss of what to do. I knew I paid for the barbecue as I was very upset that I couldn't find a male employee in the area of the barbecues to help me lift it in my buggy. I fought with it and got it in myself. I left concluding that you do not pay employees to be in the areas that they are needed—to help women pick up larger items—but you pay someone to stand by the door and watch for people to walk out the door with items and no receipt. I bet this happens numerous times, as nobody expects that in Walmart. Costco perhaps, because that it is their policy. If this is your policy, then the cashier should do what most stores do and put a paid sticker on a larger item. Make sure you know that they are going to ask for your receipt when you are leaving so that you have it ready or the best solution ever: post it at the cash registers where it is clear and visible.

    Same thing over and over at your 4975 Transit Road Lancaster, NY Walmart. Shelves of many of the same items bare every week or they face the shelf with other products to fill the hole and it never gets ordered. Even if it is automated ship for a certain number every week and you see that you're out of it all the time, I am sure there is a way that could be overridden and a number manually put in. There are never enough registers open, this also happened during the holidays. I've seen two customers be hassled by greeters on the way out, which was uncalled for. The store is very poorly ran and even though it is less than 10 minutes from my home, many times I will travel to the store on Transit Road in Clarence. I have always had great customer service and the store is ran very well.

    I went to Wal-Mart to get some fish for my newly cycled 55 gallon aquarium. To my horror the conditions were disgusting. There is really too much to say so I'll just name a few. First, there were several dead fishes in each tank. One had 9 dead African Cichlids that were so decomposed they had to be there for days. Algae eaters were feeding on their rotten corpses. Second, there were some tropical fishes with cool water fishes! Several of the beta fishes were dead as well. But the worst thing I saw was a poor beta fish that was placed in a tank with other fishes. I couldn't tell that it was a beta fish at first because all of its beautiful fins had been eaten by the other fishes.

    The aquarium was also full of dead fishes that the beta probably killed. An employee did this because the aquariums were locked. They have the worst conditions I have ever seen. You might get a fish here with enough diseases to kill your entire tank. I spoke with a manager who didn't seem too concerned but when I returned that evening the dead fishes were at least removed and the beta was killed. I suspect because it was removed from the community tank but I didn't see it in the cups with the other beta. Wal-Mart is all about money and that fish wasn't going to sell with its fins shredded and eaten.

    Dead fish were everywhere; others were swimming around in their own feces. The pet department of this store (Plymouth, NH) is both inhumane and the employees are completely unqualified to be working there. I will no longer shop there. I encourage friends to do the same. Wal-Mart needs to be put out of business. They have no business shipping fish to their store from distances only to allow them to endure disgusting, sickening conditions and ultimately to die. The water is dirty, the store is a disgrace and when brought to a manager's attention, no one would rectify the problem. There were only lies for explanations and ridiculous excuses.

    I got WalMart's automatic and standard 30-day coverage which came and went. Then too, there was the 1-year Emerson guarantee, which turned out to be only 90 days on the labor subsection and the full year only on the parts subsection. But in addition, I paid $10 each ($20) for an extra 2-year extension on the said Emerson guarantee. That was on 10/20/11. Then, some 5 months later and without any advance warning signals or provocation of any sort, the screen went dark.

    Next day I reboxed it and hauled it and the manual, sales slip, guarantees, et al., back to WalMart where I learned from the pitiful girl there that it was not their responsibility but Emerson's. So I hauled it back home, got on the phone and called the number given on the manual cover. To shorten my story, after staying on hold for 17 minutes, the lady who I kept being reassured "valued" my telephone call finally answered her phone, got all my and my TV's data in full detail, and then forwarded me to a man for whom I had to jump all the very same hoops - Name, address, mod. no., serial no., date of purchase, etc.

    I couldn't tell if he was an American or not, but he had obviously had a 'bad hair day'. He then required me to fax to him my WalMart sales slip, saying that he would get back in touch with me. Two days later, no reply from him. So I telephoned the same number and jumped all the hoops two more times before arriving at Stephanie, who informed me that (a) my extended warranty hadn't kicked in yet, (b) the "Labor" subsection time had expired, and (c) that parts and shipping would be covered by them, the labor charge to me would be $70.

    Statistically, they have learned that putting that gap into their guarantee program saves them and/or their insurance partner-in-crime oodles of money. With TV repair a long-lost local industry, I've a mind to call them back, claim that my initial contact was a false alarm, that the fault was in the wall socket, and then -- you guessed it -- come this 10/20/12, put in a new claim on the extended warranty.

    I am very angry about how managers and employees at Wal-Mart in Newport, Tennessee treat their customers. I am a Hot Wheels collector and my kids also love to get different kinds of Hot Wheels off of the shelves when we go there. The managers and the employees who stock the shelves go through the boxes of Hot Wheels while they are still on the clock and get certain Hot Wheels out of the boxes, lay them up somewhere for themselves or put them up so they can call another person to come and get them and make a little bit of money to that. The reason I know this is because I have seen employees go up to customers with the Hot Wheels in their hands and give them to the customers and take money from them and then the customer goes to the front of the store and pays for the Hot Wheel. I have seen this with my own eyes.

    Also, another thing they do is there is a man who works back in the TLE department and the stoker's put them up for him to come and get. To me that is not right; it should be first come first serve. There are a lot of people I have met in the toy department who are also buying Hot Wheels who say the same thing about the managers and the employees who work at Wal-Mart. And if I can recall myself being right about this, Sam Walton always said the customer is always right. Thank you so much for taking the time to hear me out.

We had 16 items so we went to the 20 items or less register. More people had gotten in line behind us.

I nicely said, "We have 16 items" and she yelled at us and said "You have far more items than that," and refused to check us out. All we had were some groceries. So we had to back out of the lane asking people to excuse us and went to another line. It was so embarrassing! We complained to a customer service manager and showed him the receipt that we had 16 items and how we were treated by this cashier.

I fail to see why this clerk made a hateful remark to me, when she eventually had to walk over and scan it anyway! Most check out personnel are happy to scan your heavy items like animal food, bottled water, etc., when asked, and I feel they prefer to do it before they begin scanning your other purchases.

    I really feel the Dyersburg Wal-Mart has had bad customer habits for too long a time. I knew the former manager had major health problems due to his cancer, and I always hoped the new manager would come in and make the much needed changes. You need to send secret shoppers to the Dyersburg, TN store, and just see what everyone here sees and talks about. If you ever get a competitor in the Dyersburg area, you will be in serious trouble because of the long check out wait, and the unfriendly employees.

    My T-Mobile cell phone fell off in Food Lion’s parking lot. A car ran over it. It still works except the face ink pad is gone. When I purchased family plan, the sales lady at Wal-Mart told me and my wife that phone would be replaced free if anything happened to it. I liked the plan. My wife and I are retired. I am a Vietnam disabled veteran. I went to Wal-Mart. Two ladies told me no. I explained to them what I was told. They called some lady in. She came and told me in no certain terms could that be true. I was embarrassed in front of sales girls. She told me to call T-Mobile and ask if they did any warranty. I called them and they wanted to know why I was calling them. I was informed this was Wal-Mart’s family T-Mobile. I spent $7500 a year there and do not like the way I was talked to.

    My son works for Wal-Mart and due to being a minor, he gets his paycheck on a debt card from Wal-Mart. It won't work correctly at other stores and held his money for a week until it cleared the problem and it was from the Wal-Mart accounting department. I guess as they said you should have used your card at the Murphy gas station. I guess this is slave labor as you work for the company store.

    I will turn them over to the BIA (Bureau of Indian Affairs) as this is considered a hate crime for not letting a child get his money and make sure he spends it with Wal-Mart. I left the Indian Reservation due to they want the same thing from Native Americans stay on the reservation so they can collect monies for each Indian that will stay and let them run their lives. But at least, when they gave you your rations, you could use the money at any store even the liquor store off the reservation, which I didn't do.

    This is the worst company I have seen go directly downhill. I know as I have family that worked for Mr. ** before he died. He made many of his employees millionaires and didn't say to them you must spend your money at my store. They just wanted to because he cared about his employees as they are your first line of customer service and when you are treated as the most recent employees, Dollar General will shut them down. Although, they think they can't be touched. Beware what goes around as Main Street goes around and Dollar General is taking more and more of Wal-Mart’s money everyday even in the rural areas.

    I was shopping for some steel toed boots for myself as well as my 4 other employees. So I asked one of their employees for the manager from the shoe department. After at least 20 minutes, he finally showed up. I told him the sizes I was looking for so he said he was going to look in the back room. Over 30 minutes later, I got fed up and walked towards the front of the store. And found him with his hands in his pockets talking to someone. So I confronted him asking him, “What happened to the boots I was looking for?” And he replied being smug saying, “Well look for them on your own,” and continued to talk to the other employee.

    My company uses hundreds of shoes and other products that we use to buy from their store. However, I, for one as well as any of my employees, feel extremely unhappy with this "manager’s" attitude. Therefore, we will no longer be shopping at this store unless this situation is dealt with immediately!

    I have been trying to order merchandise online from Walmart, and every time I place the order, I get a message that the order has been cancelled due to billing issues. I was told that there is something wrong with the billing address. I contacted Bank of America, as I was told by Walmart customer service that I had to contact my financial institution, which I did. BOA has told me that there is nothing wrong with my billing address, which is in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I have been trying to contact Walmart customer service by email, but they are not replying. I just want to know why Walmart does not want to accept my online order as I do want to order the merchandise from them.

    On 12/13/11, we purchased a cell phone. After making 2 payments, our service was disconnected due to lack of payments. We had receipts for these payments. Our service was restored. We were called a month later and were warned that our service was going to be terminated for lack of payment.

    After a long hassle by an employee, we were told that our receipts showed payment to T-Mobile, where it should be Home Mobile. By the way, these payments were made at our local Wal-Mart. Just today, we finally found a place that would take our payments. However, the employee there couldn't find our account at first but after looking in files, he did find our phone number "registered to another person", who owes them $240.00. This is almost beginning to be funny. Be that as it may we have spent a lot of money for nothing. Would you see if maybe this could be straightened out? It would be appreciated.

    On March 12, 2012, I went into Wal-Mart store located at 6149 Old National Hwy, College Park, GA 30349, to replace or seek core reimbursement for a battery which I purchased from Wal-Mart. In attempting to obtain service, I ended up waiting for at least 45 minutes to one hour just a manager to come and reimburse me nine dollars! The cashier called for a manager more than three times, still no response. One of the managers in the department even went searching for a manager.

    After almost an hour, one young lady showed up and said, “Sir we’re sorry, now let's move along with the matter.” She was so rude and "nice nasty". At this point, a Mr. ** showed up and I expressed my complaint to him and asked for a complimentary gift card from Wal-Mart since I had to wait for so long. Mr. ** immediately insisted that I had not waited long and basically called me a liar. I attempted to get Mr. ** to make the whole incident a positive customer service experience, but refused and treated me very unprofessionally. Mr. ** even stated that he was in the area and did not see me and that I couldn't have been in store #3401 for 45 minutes to an hour waiting for service. If he was in the area, why didn't he promptly respond to the cashier's call over the store announcement call for a manager in the tire/car center department of Wal-Mart?

    Finally, I called and complained to Manager **, but could not get through to the said manager. An assistant talked with me and promised the manager would call me back. No response or courtesy follow up by the management at store #3401. I contend that Mr. ** and the management team therein is very unprofessional and insensitive to customer needs.

    In addition, I do want to point out that I received excellent customer service interaction from employee ** in the mechanic department, also his manager on the floor was very helpful as well, despite the number of customers waiting in line for service. Therefore, the relief I seek is: customer service training for the parties involved and a complimentary gift card for my inconvenience. Kroger store has often given me customer gift cards for any inconvenience or default products.

    I would prefer someone call the number provided. I purchased an engagement ring. First, it was to be re-sized and would take up to a week and a half. After that time, they said that the ring could not be re-sized. This was missed by 2 different workers. This was on 3/3/12. So then I picked out a more costly ring, in which all they had to do was order the ring in size 8 because all rings are size 7. Now on the 10th, they said it would take another week and a half to get it. Now common sense says it does not take twice the time to order a ring than to send one in, have it re-sized and sent back. When I asked where it was, they took a whole 5 minutes trying to cover their lie. They didn't order it till I came and asked. My fiance was devastated because the first ring was the one she really wanted. The two managers were rude to me. I will tell you now I was courteous, but I will not be lied to. Now I'll sit and wait again. It's not like I bought a quart of oil. Your prompt attention to this is appreciated.
