The manager, Norma Baker, of your store on S. Broadway in Johnson City TN is very rude to the customers and her staff. I witnessed her yelling and belittling a staff member and being ridiculously rude to the customers. I have seen this on several occasions and I know the store has lost several customers because of her attitude.

My family used to go to store #2746 quite frequently, one of the gentlemen that works there (I believe he is one of the managers) became very upset with my sister-in-law, accusing her of stealing and got upset because she and I both purchased cigarettes and I asked her a question while asking him for the cigarettes.

He proceeded to yell at my sister and my daughter, telling us that my daughter was trying to steal this big LOL doll that we paid for, so my sister yelled back at him and told him to watch how he talks to her niece and we don't have to steal anything as much is not a problem for us.

He said to her that she was not allowed in the store anymore and another customer became upset with him and was like dang all of this over a doll that you all just paid for? A day or so later I…

1401 Dewar Drive. Rock Springs, Wy 82901 7:09 PM lady with ugly tattoos and brown hair Rude customer service she mouth the words “I never liked you” when I never met her before. She assumed I was paying separate like my boyfriend wasn’t there and didn’t make any smile or any feeling of earth or connection and she took a step back and waited for us to leave and she looked down the whole time as if in discontent?

I don’t know but she needs to fix her attitude I haven’t even been to this location in months.

The store located in Sanford North Carolina at the Lee avenue location had a lady working there who as soon as I entered the door was rude from the start. She nearly hit me with the buggy which was filled with items she was stocking in the freezer and the person I was she actually did bump them with the buggy and continued with her bad attitude towards us our entire visit in the store.

She then snatched the bag that he paid for saying he stole something and proceeded to call the police. Once they arrived they found that we infact did Pay for all of the items and not sure what her motive was but if someone doesn’t handle this it’ll be handled in court

The Family Dollar store in Savannah Ga. Ogelthorpe Ave. Closes whenever they feel like it. The stock sits blocking the alise for several days most times until the next week's truck arrives and beyond. The female managers are rude to the customers Over all the poorest excuse for a community store I have ever encounered.

Something needs to be done!

I wouldn't even give Pittsfield NH branch a one. This store is for the community and for customers to come in to shop. That's what I thought until this past year or so. At first the manager Nancy you couldn't even see her eyes as her hair would not on be in front but under her glasses.

Her demeanor is grouchy and says she's tired because she says she has to do all of it alone but what I've seen is her working another job besides this one and running around circles nothing gets accomplished. The place looks like a pigpen , everything not in its place as I'm doing at least 3-4 price checks and on top of the sarcasm about reading labels under product the products are not in there spots.

No sales as things use to get dis oubted after holidays. 4 the of July stuff now is 50 percent off.…

I am an employee at Family Dollar, and I have experience with a unprofessional store manager, who downplays his employees, doesn’t help his new ones and allows his favorite employee to come on the job under the influence. I had also had problems with Dustin Holtzbacker, the store manger who threatens to write me up for family urgency call offs and tells me I don’t need a job!

He lets his white employees get away with calling off but when I need to actually help my poor and old grandparents, he threatens to “correct my behavior”! This is unacceptable and action needs to be done NOW! The store number is 10064 and the address for this store is 6480 Winchester pike, canal Winchester,OH 43110

I placed an online order for 360 units of random Pokémon card packs totaling $388.65 on 7/27/23. Delivery estimate was 7-10 days and I received a box a week later on 8/2/23. That’s unfortunately the only good part of the story.

When the product arrived, the box looked like it had been kicked around. In addition to that, I’d only received half my order with no notification on the status of the other half.

After some googling, I tried to call Family Dollar’s customer service number which basically is an automated menu that gives you the run around, leading to the same end result regardless of what menu option you choose, and ultimately directs you to submit an “online survey” via their “contact us” page.

I submitted a survey with my order number and description of the incident, and asked…

My daughter and I visited your store #05161 5751 N. Main Street Jacksonville, Florida 32206, on 8/3/2023. As we were shopping, one of your managers spoke in an extremely loud voice and nasty tone, to a cashier. After I paid for my items, my daughter realized she had left her card in the car. My daughter said the cashier told her to go get it. I heard the cashier tell my daughter she didn't have to look a certain way, so my daughter said "You don't tell me what to do. I just told my mom I was going to get my card." While that was happening, I didn't say a word.

Then a black, female manager came up yelling "What's the problem?" My daughter told the cashier to give her the items back so she could go to the next register, but the manager told my daughter "NO", I am going to ring you up over…

My name is Dylan Barbee, about a year ago I was recorded stealing a pack of batteries from the family Dollar in my neighborhood. Family Dollar Address: 13690 FM. 56, Morgan Tx. 76671. I have honored my banishment from the store but now feel that it has been long enough that my banishment should be lifted.

However the manager of the store "Dottie", is holding a personal grudge and still not allowing me in the store, she has even threatened (Rudely) to not allow my wife or roommates in the store simply because they live in the same household as I. I fully understand I committed a crime against the store, and have attempted to apologize and even pay for what I stole a year ago but have been denied any reconciliation.

This is the only store in our town at all. There are no other grocery…

The older male manager has himself or his other male employee follow me through the store on several occasions. I warned him today that if he or his employees follow me around the store again I was going to call the police and file an official harassment charge against any employees involved I am a 42 year old mother of three and

refuse to be harassed every time I come in because I have some kind of bag on me I'm not paying for y'all's bags and I'm not carrying around paper bags but just because I have my own personal bag does not mean that I'm a thief and again I'm not going to warn anyone else I will be filing charges next time.

This would have happened between 1:30 and 1:50 today

I always shot at family dollar, but recently it just keeps going downhill. They don’t value there customers. I have the app and I clip coupons. Today i clipped a coupon for $5 off of $25.

Also, I clipped another one for spend $25 on gain, get $5 off. The women told me I could not do that. Even tho it stated no where on there that I couldn’t. Everytime I have coupons it’s an issue (and only at this store).

The two ladies were not friendly. There attitudes weren’t horrible, but definitely not friendly. I had to get the stuff out of the bags 3 different times so she could re-ring everything up. I’m not sure that I’ll be going back to that location.

And that’s sad, because it’s super close to me. I’ve always went there. The last time she rang all of my items back up, she tried to tell me I…

First off, I would just like the amount of money yall are losing a day from the family dollar in Screven Ga, because of KIDS running the store I have never in my life seen a store that couldnt/wouldn't sell you cigarettes because they weren't old enough to well if that is the rules of family dollar how about not selling cigarettes or making it were if uou can't sell cigarettes you can't work there. Another great idea would be to always have someone old enough working there that they could sell them!.

Within the 20 minutes I was in family dollar today there was 3 people come in to buy cigarettes , including myself and with the price of cigarettes it seems to me like no mangers would want to be losing that amount of money but that's my opinion but I do know that from now on me and mine will…

Numerous times I've previously heard her do this to customers. She is NOT customer service. Again I will stop going there. It disgusts me to see this in front of children and customer. Maybe she needs to stay in back

Not knowing she was a store employee (dressed in all black, and not curtious enough to introducing herself as such) we went to the front door being paying customers and waited patiantly for the woman to unlock the door . As we entered the store she imediatly begang to attack us, saying that we were'nt allowed to park there and ranting on how she would not put up with people like us as we introduced ourselves as associates of the ministry and

I then replied and ask her why she had to use profanity with me because I did not use it with her and she is in customer service, so I was taken out of character when that happened and replied back the same way and stated I was going to contact corporate and she replied with a rude response, at that point I did not want to…

I believe that Family Dollar located at 597 S Idaho St, Wendell, ID 83355 may be conducting illegal business. They have taken it upon themselves to put a tiny homemade hand written 2 hour parking sign up. It looks like a child wrote it with a crayon/highlighter marker then proceeded to put it very far away from the store, on a small picket fence, in an area that most people don't even enter into the store parking lot.

The sign is so small, the writing is faded, and it is placed in an area that the Family dollar employees know that the majority of people will never see it, especially if it's dark out. It is obviously not a refective sign.

I've seen children's lemonade stands with better signs. The sign simply says limit 2 hour parking no overnight will tow and has a number at the bottom. It…

At the Family Dollar location at 548 Lefferts Ave Brooklyn,NY, which is store # 07005, I was harassed by two employees. Alice, the cashier and the other employee, Eya Makeba would not stop staring me down wherever I went in the store.

I asked both of them to stop and they refused. When I asked what the issue was, there was no response and just more staring and following. I have been a loyal customer for decades and have never been mistreated this badly.

I will choose another location. Eya Makeba was on her phone and was doing nothing else,but harassing me. She is the definition of a lazy employee. Alice turned away from her register,meaning instead of facing forward, and stared me down.

The store is filthy and boxes are everywhere, which is a safety issue. The profiling has to stop.…

The Store Manager Shanice Sutton is very unprofessional. She steals time. While being clocked in she constantly leaves the store and handles personal matters. She also have her minor children in the store walking around while she at work intervening with customers.

The store is rarely neat and clean and I think its needs better management at this time. This store is located in Macon Ga on Shurlington Drive.

I then asked The employee that was doing a new aisle set up was anyone checking out. Instead of letting who ever the cashier was for the shift know someone was ready to check out, she goes to say ring the bell & continued what she was doing.

I rung the bell annoyed but I did it. The cashier (Tall, Very Light Skinned, Natural hair) finally comes to the front. She was very rude, didn’t apologize for the wait, and went to the opposite register from which I was standing.

Family dollar in Kingman, AZ Route 66 Andy Devine, it says that they are hiring on the outside of the building but when I go to fill out the application nothing. I called to check the status but the manager is rude and says she’s by herself so she can’t check it.

I try to leave my info but she does not take it. When I try to call back a different day no one answers but if I call from a different number she answers. It’s clear that they are discriminating because of my race.

They don’t like black people in that area which is unfair and unconstitutional.

Good afternoon, I have a complaint against the North Branch, Minnesota Family Dollar store #10244. I am a very good loyal Family Dollar store customer and frequent the store often. ($100 per shopping trip minimum) I usually stop at my local Family Dollar store on Wednesday evening as I am returning home from a weekly function.

I stopped last night about 7:30PM and was just taking my time shopping. I was in no hurry and felt no reason to rush. The store was not busy. I was standing in front of the clearance rack getting some of the coupons on my phone app. I was not doing anything wrong, but a store associate came up to me and asked me to leave the store immediately. I thought this had to be a joke, since I had done nothing wrong and was just appalled that she thought I had done something…

My complaint for the family dollar /dollar tree in Valley Head, AL. Store #13328 is that every employee with the exception of two (felicia and lexi) are rude and grumpy and always standing around but too busy to assist customers The store is gross and it looks halloween decorations on the windows outside and in.

The male employee is hateful and a smart ellic for no reason. The store smells like rodent feces and the food is usually out of date or moldy. Some of the employees barely can count change. Thank you for your time.

35 more than they were marked on the shelf. I said something to the extremely rude woman behind the cash register and she started yelling at me and said that she can’t change the price take it or leave it I said fine forget it and I started walking out the door.

She started yelling at me for disrespecting her in “her” store and told me never to come back again I said a few things back and walked out the door. She came running out The door left a whole bunch of customers in line with her fist, raised to me, calling me, faggott and threatening me And called a cop and got a criminal trespass warning for me going in the store.

I’ve been a good customer I’m a nice person and I own a lot of property in the town rent houses and land and such and she shouldn’t have called me faggott and raised…
