Scam at store #10118
Store #10118 Langley SC
7/26/2023 10:06;[protected]
older white cashier ask if I wanted to buy candy bars to help them win a contest, I ask to see the contest paper or display like Dollar Tree has that says
"Support your favorite store by buying candy bars"
She said this is unofficial, so that tells me that this is a scam and they are doing something dishonest over there to cover all the theft they allow to happen.
Every time I go over there the store is full of crack heads just eating off the shelves and nothing is being done. I I report it everytime and they say well we have cameras, but we don't have enough help to catch them. The only reason i still go there is because its next to Allnex where a lot of us work . You need to do better! The grass is unkept, drug baggies all over the parking lot and store, bums on the side of the store and your 2 cashiers are always out smoking in front of store talking to the bums. Your company makes a lot of money, you need to spend some to hire people who will actually work and keep your locations safe/clean and NOT TRY TO SCAM US OUT OF DOLLARS for nonexistent contests.
Desired outcome: IMPROVE/ CLEAN/ STOP THE SCAMS at this store.

I work for the company and the employees that are in management position in Orlando on Gore St has no clue on how to be a manger. It seem as though they were just put in the position just to say that they are. In fact when I was hired on the 19th of June I had to keep calling the district manager just to get a hold of the store manager. I called and texted...

Manager Phil at the Southside/Carrick location was very disrespectful and abusive, He put me out of the store for asking a simple legitimate question that seems like he was not intelligent enough to answer. I returned a defective product for a refund and I was told because the product was opened it could not be refunded and that was the store policy, I...

I am a 3 year employee of family dollar and I must say all that I have read today is compelling enough for me to 1. write this and 2. contact hr and customer service to perhaps find some way to resolve some of, if not all of, these issues. I am brought here by my own complaint of nepotism at my store and selling alcohol and tobacco to minors. As I come...

On the evening of June 30, I was shopping at my local Family Dollar, entering the store at approximately 9:10 PM. A short time later, maybe 20 minutes I had to use the bathroom due to a health issue I have been suffering from for a while, an issue which consists of flare ups and exacerbations that are urgent and sometimes unpredictable. I had to go...
Read full review of Family Dollarno receipt paper, moving money from apple card to family dollar card without permission.
On Friday, June 23rd, 2023 at approximately 4:30pm. I purchased a card from family dollar in Albany, Louisiana. (store number 07543). I was not informed until after I purchased a 100 Apple gift card that the receipt paper was not working. I need the receipt in order to do what I intended with the card. The clerk Called the Manager in duty (Thelma Simmons) to help with the matter. When she couldn't get the printer to work Mrs. Simmons decided to put it on a Family Dollar card. I did not want this and in fact I asked for the apple card back. I think Mrs Simmons was going to try and buy a new apple card with the family dollar gift card. I know this cannot be done and I am the customer. She told me to come back Saturday and she would give me my money back. I have been up there four days in a row. She is not there when I go. I am told by the clerks she is the only one that can help me. I ended up having to buy another apple card. When I mess up at work it comes out of my paycheck! It sure keeps me from making mistakes at others people's expense. I am very upset that I am out 100 dollars with no way to get my money back. I will not use this card as I do not plan to ever visit your store again.
Thank you for your help,

This store is in my neighborhood so it's convenient. But when you look at the shelf and purchase items from the price tag on the shelves and get to the register and it's at least 75 cents to a dollar higher in price. The cashier will not honor the price. They inconvenience the customer by saying come back tomorrow when my manager is here so she can just...

Read full review of Family DollarAir conditioning
This is my second complaint, as I could not find where my first one posted. I am currently employed with Family Dollar (store 10158) and we are miserable with the heat here. At first we were told that one of the ACs were broke, but someone came and looked and nothing was wrong with it. It is my understanding that corporate controls the temperature, but I'm not so sure they realize how hot it gets here in the South. My last post someone replied to my post saying that the ceiling may need to be fixed, but there are no holes or anything where heat could enter. The door stays shut other than customers coming in and out as well. We have had many, many complaints of how hot it is in here coming from customers and staff. Please could you turn the thermostat down a few degrees. This is a multi million dollar company that I would hope would like to keep their employees comfortable as well as employed. Please take this into consideration.
Desired outcome: Turn down thermostat.

A few days ago, maybe June 17th or 18th? I gave a girl a ride to Family Dollar near me #8172 on Hwy 60 in Superior, Az. I went with the intention of buying ice cream... I've been going to this store for years since it was first there, around 10-15 years, I am 67 and have worked in Customer Service since 1984. They had a mgr there who has retired - everytime...
Read full review of Family DollarStore manager
on 6/17/23, about 5:00pm, I was told by store manager listed sale items are not acknowledged after 4:00pm the Saturday before the new sale starts on Sunday. Was told sale stickers were already removed from store. Never encountered this behavior before as a customer for many years. The manager 'Tia" was very rude. When I asked for Corporate number, she lied and said " the number on your receipt is for corporate', which is not the case. As being a Dollar General employee, customer service is number one, the disrespect and rudeness that this manager displayed is not acceptable. And of course, none of the other employees' knew a number for corporate either. This took place at 1415 E. Coldspring location. Didn't appreciate being embarrassed or treated rudely as a paying customer.
Desired outcome: Hoping I get a response back with an apology from this manager and accurate store policy information so this won't happen to me or any other customer in the future...Thanks in advance.
