I was aware of how courteous the cashier was with the customer ahead of me, thanking the customer at the end of their transaction. During my checkout I noticed the cashiers facial expression and attitude totally change. After giving me my change from my transaction, I thank her.

While walking away I remembered that she did not give me my monopoly tickets and turned back to her and said, "excuse me madam, you didn't give my monopoly tickets. In an agitated response, she replied, " we're all out!!!!!!

I then told her I was going to report her attitude to the store manager. She then handed me 8 ticktes!!!!!!!!!! I did speak to the store manager about the incident. He said he would take of it. I was upset leaving the store and felt as if I had come face to face with a " pit viper".

For the second time in a year the Safeway on Balfour in Brentwood CA has no crab on sale. Safeway ran an ad for 3 day sale of crab and when I went to the store to buy they had no crab and did not know if they would get any.

I talked to the asst. manager and was told it was subject to availability and they could not get it but the ad ran anyway. Now, here is the kicker-- The Livermore Safeway has plenty of sale crab so it is available.

This tells me there is something wrong in the Balfour Safeway as this is the second time this has happened. Someone is not ordering when ads run or does not know what they are doing. Availability is not the issue but running the seafood dept.

and management is the issue. Don't run ads that ALL your stores cannot fulfill and pass it off as availability. I…

I live in Lakeside, AZ and shop at the local Safeway store for grocery and pharmacy items. This store is very poorly managed. We have had higher than average snowfall and when we went to the store to pick up a prescription, the parking lot was not plowed and extremely dangerous. I confronted the manager Dave something, he had a lame excuse that because there were cars in the parking lot, nothing could be done. Really? He and some other employees could have been working snow shovels because the store wasn't very busy at all. He has NO compassion for the people that frequent that particular store. If they can't afford to address the parking lot, close them down until a new manager has a realistic plan.

I would appreciate an answer to this problem.

The personnel at the woodland Washington Safeway pharmacy are the rudest most unprofessional folks I have ever had to do business with. I feel they should have to answer to a supervisor or something, I really feel Safeway corporate should address some of the issues with their woodland Washington pharmacy employees, they can do a lot better job.

1018 Casitas Pass Rd Carpinteria Ca. 93013

Yesterday around 5:00 pm I unloaded my groceries and returned the cart. There was a girl that was going to follow me to my house cause she had never been there before. I backed out of my parking spot and was still going backwards for 2 more car stalls and then I backed in a parking stall. With no car on either side for at least 3 stalls. A male employee that was collecting carts walks up to me and says that was a stupid thing to do! You don’t pull in a car stall backwards your lucky you didn’t hit anyone. He was pretty angry. I was surprised he said that since there was no one around where I was. The girl in the car right across from me witnessed the whole thing. I apologized to him and thought he maybe saw something that I didn’t. So I said said…

I hear your company is in trouble. I believe I have discovered the reason. I shop at your store in Clackamas,Or on Webster Rd. My experience is that if 3 checker are needed your co. has one on duty, with lines reaching out into the isles.

However my main complaint is you no good 2nd rate pharmacy. I have had to make multiple trips back over the last couple of years to get a prescription filled, always an excuse of no physician response. I have a new Dr.

12 days ago, I ordered 5 Prescriptions. 2 were out of date. 4 days later, no medications. By 4th trip, no medications. Asked to see if they had been ordered & no record of ordering was found, plus no medications.

Promised it would be done. After 3 days returned, & some of the medications were in.

However, was advised I would have to…

I am an avid shopper at Safeway in Gilroy & have been there to many times lately that someone is walking out of the store with groceries Alcohol, baby formula & the checker says there isnt anything we can do. Well I suggest you have someone at the doors checking their receipts like Walmart & Costco.

I will quit shopping there until you do something about this stealing. That only ups the price of groceries. so I will be going to walmart until I hear you have solved this problem. Thank you!!!! Kay Carlson

Yesterday I shopped at Safeway to pick up 8 pieces of chicken, the only purchase I made. I waited in line behind a man who also had one item. When the cashier finished checking him out he told me to go to another check out line. Why?

I had one item, no one was behind me either since the store was not busy at that time. (11;30 am). I felt that was very rude not to check me out. I called customer service when I got home, got a manager who listened to me and then, without putting me on hold, talked/took care of another customer complaint.

Very, very poor customer service all around. I may not shop at Safeway again, but if I do, I will certainly not shop at that store again!!

Store #4833-Canada- purchased a Danone yogurt on Friday, December 28, 2018- sticker said 50% off- new clerk never saw it- any way- never gave the discount. MY offers site was temporary down on that day- so couldn't download offers to my Air-miles card- spoke to the assistant manager- was told to bring my receipt in at a later date and would receive my air miles.

- had the lid from the yogurt, my receipt- he said I could have brought in a lid from an old product, already got the discount-, needed the whole container- so he could get the UPC code, asked if he couldn't look at another yogurt- no needed the whole container- - so set it aside- talked him about the air miles- said my print out could have been from any old outdated offers- so

unless I could prove when the offers were available-…

Someone digitally stole a Safeway gift card from me last summer. The card was for $50. When my daughter I bought the card for tried to use it, she told me there was zero balance on the card. I went to the Safeway customer service desk to complain.

I showed the clerk my receipt for the card. The Safeway customer service clerk gave me a number to call, which I did. The call taker got all of my information, and gave me a case number. Apparently, someone had stolen the numbers on the card, then spent all of it.

That happened back in last July. Now, 4 months later, I have heard nothing from Safeway, and I feel that I have been lied to by them, and I have decided to NEVER again buy a Safeway gift card, because they are not secure.

I wish I could give the experience I had "zero" stars.

This store in Willcox is the worst. They finally got rid of the manager, but 90% of the employees are rude. The products are out dated you have to check the date on every thing we buy. Today I had my Just For U List. They had nothing...

I asked a produce guy if they changed things, his response was " I DON"T KNOW". The cashier told me they had trouble ordering.. Safeway is lucky we have no other store in Willcox or they would be out of buissness.

But the people of Willcox are trying to get a STORE We hope something will be done..

For years I've been a big fan of the fried chicken at the Eastgate Albertson's store. For some time after the transition to Safeway, the fried chicken at the deli remained consistently good.

However, the last two times it has just been terrible, and the same problems: 1) Completely full trays of fried chicken, but it's all breasts and 2) it's either overcooked in the first place or kept under the heating lights for so long that it is completely dried out. The 8-pack of dark that we bought tonight abut 6:30 was just ridiculous.

First, she's got two full trays of fried chicken - but it was all white breast pieces. She ended up putting one thigh, 6 wings and one breast in the bag (there were no legs in the tray at all).

When we got home, we found the chicken was so dry it was virtually…

Having lived in this area for 30 plus years and having shopped there the entire time, I am now 70 years old and fairly handicapped, with Arthritis, leg vein issues and more. I use the electric cart to shop, as I can only do a little walking with a cart.

There is just one electric cart, which makes it difficult with this area having a large senior population. For the past 2 1/2 weeks this cart has been out of service. I have inquired several times as to when it would be fixed. The 1st.

time I was told, it won't be long, the 2nd time I called and the customer service person said IDK I didn't even know it wasn't working and finely a few days ago I ask the manager in person, he said oh it's hard to tell, they will stop by next time they are in the area. WOW, I guess this is how much this…

I am very upset and angry with attitude I got at the store. I wanted to use Safeway station to fill up my car, however I wanted to use safeway gift card for that. My card had $22 on it which was not enough for fill up.

I came to Safeway #705 and tried to get another Safeway card and pay for it with existing safeway and add additional money, for the total of $75. I not only wasn't allowed doing that but while I tried to resolve issue with the cashier, I was told (by cashier) that I was holding off the line and I need to move away. This is very frustrating.

It is not the first time I have issue of purchasing Safeway gift card. Sometimes I have e-gift card that can't be scanned at your gas station and that needs to be transferred to physical card, sometimes card demagnetizes and needs to be…

Tonight at the Green Valley, Az. Store located at 1305 W. Duval Mine Rd. only the 20 item lane was open. I had 29 items. As I was placing my items on the checkout counter, the cashier Noah was eating and drinking.

I said to him did you not get a break? His reply was not enough time. I asked the gal bagging the items that I would like to be helped to my car as I purchased some heavy items. She then proceeded to walk toward the door about 20 feet ahead of me without the cart.

I said to Noah what's going on and he called her and she hestitantly started walking back towards us. I pushed my cart to exit and told her that I plan to report her. She was totally disconnected with what was happening.

She appeared to be on drugs or something. I believe her name was Hailie.

I went to return back my propane gas cylinder (Amerigas) since I was moving. I had previously purchased it from this Safeway location. The representative at customer service told me that they don't return it back (they only sell it or exchange it). They told me that I should contact Amerigas for refund. They told me it was ok to leave the cylinder outside with the Amerigas station so we left the cylinder there.

Following is the Safeway address: 950 W Hamilton Ave, Campbell, CA 95008

The customer service representative basically told us that we need to contact Amerigas for refund even though I paid it Safeway when I purchased it.

I will appreciate if you please help us get a refund since we returned the cylinder? Also, we are concerned about the safety since we had to leave it outside…

Back in February 17th of this year my wife complained about the coffee I had made; it just didn't taste right. It tasted so bad that she said she couldn't drink her coffee! Upon investigation we discovered that the problem was not the coffee, per se, but the half and half she had added to the coffee -- the LUCERNE Fat Free Half & Half.

It turns out that it's loaded with chemicals we cannot even pronounce along with 2 forms of SUGAR. I sent you my complaint back then (February 17th) but never heard from you. Now you advertise that this product carries a 100% guarantee and we paid about $4.00 for it. Can you make good on your guarantee?

Or is your guarantee worthless?

I have been shopping at the safeway store in Anderson California for over 20 years, and have frequently spent over 600 dollars per week there. I am writing to let you know that I will no longer be a safeway customer at this or any other safeway store.

I have had poor experiences with the pharmacy there off and on for quite some time. Delays in filling prescriptions, poor customer service and drugs that are out of stock. My most recent experience involved dropping off several prescriptions to be filled.

My upon returning to pick them up, the male pharmacist informed me that a generic equivilent for one was available at substantial savings. He said they did not have it but could get it and have it ready the next day.

I appreciated the suggestion and agreed. I sent my daughter back two days…

Self check out @ Healdsburg, CA store is a disaster. Every entry seems to have an issue. Long lines to get to a self check out because all but 2 other isles closed. Unacceptable. Bad idea. Hire real people to check out customers.

Use some of your 50 million in net profits to make customer service a reality. Getting worse since Albertson's took over. After 40 years of shopping @ Safeway, Oliver's market is looking pretty good right now. Make some serious changes to help your bottom line, otherwise you're going down.

Today I went through the self help line at the westlake safeway. The checker had to come help me 3 times because of the lame prompts by the computer. 00. When I told the checker and she told me to go to the customer service center which about 7 people in line already.

Is this your idea of customer service? This is not the first time I have encountered customer service problems at this establishment. Your managers should be ashamed at their inability to keep customers happy. You are nothing without loyal customers and your employees suffer the consequences of not keeping customers happy.

Trader Joe's is sounding more and more like a place I should take my business. Let me know what you think!!!

I just left Safeway, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Only 2 registers opened, I had a package of super glue I was standing in line when they called for a third checker, instead of coming up to me and taking me next they took the person at the back of the line with a big full cart of stuff and

left me standing there behind someone else with a big full cart of stuff. There are no apologies, no anything. That's the last time I shop in that store

I have been to a number of Safeway stores up and down the West Coast and all have a terrible checkout process. Wait times are long and long lines exist no matter what time of day you go in. Don't know if they are trying to save money, or just don't care about their customers.

I have stopped going to Safeway, and have been going to Winco and Wal-Mart, where there is self checkout and few lines.

Nowhere on the box or label does it say that the leaves ect are not fondant!!!! This could of been a very serious problem if child would of swallowed the wire. This could of killed my child!!!! This is not the first time i have had issues with this store!

The decorations look like fondant!! Not once when cake was purchased did anyone say they were not! I do have a picture of the cake and the wire but im sending this from my laptop and do not have them downloaded on here.

No customer service. I purchased a whole rib eye roast for Christmas and the meat department refused to cut it for me without charging me .28 per pound more than their sales price! I purchase 400.00-500.00 of groceries there per week but I'm certain king soopers will love my business I called them and if I buy their meats they will cut it how I want it at no additional charge. I will never spend another cent at Safeway.

I have a good mind to take their prime rib roast back! You'd think if you're spending 120.00 on a roast they'd cut it however you want... we'll get ready to loose my business! I want customer service and Safeway has obviously cut that part Out of they're business standard.

Aloha, my name is Ramon, I mostly shop at the Safeway Kahului store on Maui. I am not a complaining person, however, what happened to me twice in the same store (Safeway, Kahului) drove me to this written complaint. It was 6:30 pm on 9/29/16, when I went to the Deli to get a sandwich (I love Safeway sandwiches). The woman behind the counter just got through serving a customer. When I asked her I wanted to get a sandwich, she refused to make it. Her reasoning was, she was the only one in the Deli and she had to clean up before closing.

I found out her shift ended at 9:00 pm. This was the second time this happened to me in the same store by two different clerks. I wanted to complain to the night manager (Sheryl), however, she was on dinner break. I was upset enough, I left my grocery cart…

We live in byron california. In november 2015 an ordinance was passed which restricted the trucks allowed on camino diablo in byron because the trucks are shaking our houses apart and making our water wells fail. The road is not built for these trucks.

our problem is that some of your drivers can't read because there are multiple signs at hwy j4, camino diablo, marsh creek road and the bypass at vasco road. Could someone please stop these drivers as we call the california highway patrol every chance we get to get all the errant truckers off of this road.

One of these days your drivers will be caught and ticketed. We would appreciate a call from you with your plan to take care of this problem. Please do not ignore this complaint because we are going to call the tv channels next.

I was driving near Walmart on Rainer Ave S. on 3-2-2016 at 1:50pm, and I was stopped at a light next to a Safeway delivery truck. The driver of the truck was staring at me very strangely, like trying to start something with me, and then he put up a gang sign.

The truck number was #15974, and the license plate number was C23451D. I just thought that was very unprofessional for a Safeway employee to be acting while at work.

Also I have a picture of the truck after the light changed, I will try to send it following this email.

I've been a customer at store 1954 in Redding Ca. for more than 30 years. I always like the selection and the employees. Service was very good. Lately service has been very poor. Long lines at the check-out in direct contradiction to the large banner over the check-out proclaiming there will be no wait. On two recent shopping trips I left the store, once having to re-shelf the contents of my cart. I attempted to phone Safeway ( the bottom of the receipt says Safeway would like to hear from the customers). After being on hold for 15 minutes on two occasions I gave up. One can only conclude that Safeway's primary interest is not customer service.

Suggestion: Remove the banner and the note on the receipt, forget the bingo game (which slows done check-out), convert your marketing folks to…

Safeway pharmacy here in the 95531 has a very bad customer service problem, when getting your scripts they have a very bad habit of telling you your script is ready and so when you go there to pick it up its never filled!! to begin with.

There is a really bad problem of them telling you can pick your script up on a certain day and then well its not there? I am bring this up to you because i have met several others that are not happy as well?

This has become upsetting to my wife and i because my wife has terminal cancer, and it has become a real problem on getting her meds like she is supposed too? We are hoping that you could please look into how they are treating their customers?

Also please take note that just before 2014 we never had any problems with your pharmacy.

Using click it or clip ticket to purchase Kellogg's Special K , I selected one original and two with red berries. These coupons said $2.49 each and showed a picture which included Spec K Otherwise it said "selected varieties' 16.7 to maybe 26 ounces. I'm uncertain as to the size markings but they were the larger ones. When I looked at my receipt I saw I was charged $249 for the one box of original but $349 for each of the two having berries.

So I stopped at customer service to ask why I was charged more for the two and the lady said red berries are always more. I asked what about selected varieties and she looked at a coupon in her possession and said I'll have to look at the shelf listing. And so she did. and came back and said it didn't apply to the red berries.

Approximately 90 days ago, my son purchased some fuel from one of the Safeway filling stations in the Denver Metro Area. He dispensed his fuel got his receipt and drove off. Now his bank tells him he had a $200 charge on top of the fuel for a gift card.

He never purchased a gift card and would like his money back. He was told by the store that they do not keep records after 90 days. How can I get this resolved.

You have an Arrogant, non customer service Safeway assistant Manager here in Northern Virginia store (Kingstown) whom I think should be removed. He seems to think he is to good to work the customer service counter(a joke of a name when the customer has to look for service) when there is no one there.

I have also brought this type of attitude to the store Manager obviously to no avail. This has become a problem of horrific magnitude.

I bought a 2 layered chocolate cake for my birthday on October 26, 2015 at Safeway in San Ramon California. Brought it home, put it in the refrigerator and cut it up for desert that night. We all thought it tasted funny (as if the icing was made with milk that had soured).

I never took it back to tell them because we through it out (not much left). We weren't going to take it back after taking a bite out of so many pieces. I went to Safeway in Castro Valley California on November 5, 2015 and bought a single layer cake, which tasted similar to the other cake.

I figured the chocolate icing on Safeway's cakes are made of something that tastes sour. I just want you to know that I will not be purchasing anymore bakery goods from any of your stores. I also will be advising other people not to…

, managed by Chris Davison. After about 3-4 months of finding errors on my receipts after getting home, I decided to tally my purchases in-store prior to going to cashier for the entire month of April in 2015. Apparently, the onus is on the consumer, leaving one only to return to the cashier, who is now occupied with the next cart, or waiting for someone at the Service Desk.

Three of 4 weekly purchase totals were wrong! Of approximately $110 total for all 3 overcharged visits, I was charged in excess over $11! That's an average of 10%. Safeway has been sued numerous times by the states attorneys general of California, Oregon, as well as their problems in Arizona.
