Fred Meyer
Reviews and Complaints

What business tells their customers they don't care about others essentially calling them bad people over the intercoms if we don't get an experimental gene therapy? Personal health is not your business and to assume everyone is the same is ignorant and antiscience. Your company disgusts me and I will never shop at Fred Meyers again or any Kroger owned business.

Customer service
while I was checking out a person in a wheelchair dropped a box. A worker laughed at them was pointing at them and when the person in the wheelchair looked up at them the worker waved to them as if they were a baby. She would not help then pick up their box I had to help them pick up the box. The worker was awful to them. This can not be going around. This was at Oregon City Fred Myers at 520ish

Fred Meyer Wasilla's public restrooms are not up to any level of standards. The tissue rolls are on the dirty grimy floors, the floors are mopped using the same nasty mop water that's always sitting there in the hallway. Blood and feces smears are on the walls. The walls have never been disinfected in there. I've complained to the store manager but no one seems to care. It's filthy. I'd rather use the bathroom outside in the woods.

I was discriminated against on fred meyers 3805 se hawthorne at approximately 9pm on 11/05/2020 by the cashier and manager "tim".

I had wine in my cart and gave the cashier my ecuadorian passport because i forgot my us id at home. She immediately looked at me suspiciously and kept looking at my passport until she told me it had expired in 2014. Tim then told me the passport had to be valid in order to be accepted.

I then realized they had looked at the wrong date and my passport was valid.
When i pointed they had made a mistake, the manager now argued that it had to be a us passport.
I knew for a fact that was incorrect since i passed an alcohol certification and educated him on the states alcohol regulations. He told me dismissively that those were kroger policies.
I asked him to show me the policy that he's referencing and thats when he came back with the book of policies for the store where it clearly stated any valid passport is a form of acceptable identification to purchase alcohol.
Immediately after he saw that line he closed the book and told me it had to be a valid us passport again.
This is where i knew i was being discriminated against because of my foreign passport and this person would not accept they were wrong.
I complained about this treatment and he just told me they didn't have to sell me alcohol and quote "do you know you can just buy alcohol anywhere else?". 
He had a grudge with me for absolutely no reason other than racism and didn't want to be caught being wrong in front of 5 other staff that were just standing there and seemed annoyed that i disturbed their chit chat.

I filmed the book with the policies stating a valid passport is an accepted form of id and he told me i was making him uncomfortable by filming and told me to leave.
At no point was i rude or did anything that deserved this kind of treatment and discrimination.  i'm a soft spoken, 5'3 female trying to make sense why they were refusing the sale with no valid justification.

This person is just not trained to be a manager and clearly never even read their policies. 
He made a call and was told to sell the wine to me. When i was paying i told him he needs to train the staff to avoid this discriminatory treatment and he told me " how many ecuadorian passports do you think we get around here?"

It's not only discrimination, he acted in a belittling and disrespectful way. His ignorance and lack of empathy are unacceptable.
I can understand the cashier making a mistake- or even the manager not knowing your store (or the state's) policies on valid id, but what i cannot understand is why after confirming with the policy book that the i was correct, he would still deny it so firmly and treat me badly in front of the rest of the store.

When I go on to the site to refill RX's I get a choice of 2 questions . #1 call my doctor #2 transfer from another pharmacy. I'm sorry this needs to a #3 refills.

Since last year when you made personnel changes, I have had a problem with a med that causes with drawl when not taken . I was almost 2 weeks without it and did not know it could cause this problem. When I called My DR he said the pharmacist should have known better that this would happen and given me a few to hold me over for what ever reason they could not fill it. Now I no longer get phone calls that my meds are ready for pickup, I have signed several permission papers for this to happen. Just like it did for almost 20 years. I have always been happy with F/M pharmacy until this new web site and Personnel happened .

Current air quality in wa and or are so hazardous that businesses are closing to protect the health of their employees yet kroger remains open telling their employees its alright.
Please close these stores until the air quality changes.

Kroger remains committed to continually harming their employees by placing them in hazardous conditions with no support.
Management does nothing to try and help - and with the threat of being fired, employees are scared to say anything yet continue to cough and complain.

Currently in vancouver wa the air quality shows 363. Last night at 1130pm is was at 520.
The weather may change by sunday... Today is tuesday.

HI! I work at this location in Shoreline, Washington 98133 and it seems that I have been getting bullied and picked on every single day that come to work at this place, I am getting bullied alot in apparel and cosmetics, and this has not stopped, and it seems that Aneila Malano, and Elizabeth (Liz) Moore have been bullying associates and they want everything to go their way, it is not fair and this needs to stop. They treat associates like their slaves and make sure that they are the ones bouncing around and being a ping pong ball and what not. It has never been this bad at this location. It seems that there are too many special needs and homeless and people that steal at this store. This needs to stop or I will have to report this L and I and the police department. So something needs to be done or else. Thank you for your time.

I was shopping I had a couple things in my basket and an employee approached me rudely grabbed my basket of stuff out of my hands and told me it was time to leave I asked what for and he wouldn't tell me he just kept telling me to leave I ask for his manager and he said he was the manager I asked another employee if she was a manager and she said yes but when I told her what happened she said she couldn't over ride him it was rude and embarrassing and for no reason I did nothing wrong I will never shop there again

I am a physician who is retired due to a disability (so I have intimate knowledge of the inner workings of the medical/pharmacy systems). I went to fill a prescription yesterday at Fred Meyer, it was a "partial fill" of a prescription that I had filled there one month ago. The prescription was written for an amount larger than insurance would cover so the remainder was carried over in the form of a partial refill, which is a common and perfectly acceptable practice.
Insurance wasn't covering the partial refill so I informed the pharmacy I'd simply pay cash for it. The prescription was a controlled substance and the price they quoted me was $59. I immediately showed them the GOOD RX price, WHICH CLEARLY SHOWED THE EXACT MEDICATION, DOSE AND AMOUNT and FRED MEYER PHARMACY WAS THE FIRST LISTED PHARMACY, AS THEY HAD THE BEST PRICE OF $8.06! The pharmacy tech said they would not honor it as it was a controlled substance. I KNOW THIS TO BE UNTRUE AS I HAVE PAID CASH FOR CONTROLLED PRESCRIPTIONS THERE IN THE PAST AND THEY DID ACCEPT THE GOOD RX PRICE AS ADVERTISED! She reiterated that they would not honor the price, despite the fact it WAS VERY CLEARLY ADVERTISED AS SUCH, so I requested that she transfer the prescription to another pharmacy listed on the Good Rx app (the MOST expensive price of ANY listed pharmacy was $11.54) but she informed me that since it was a partial refill of a controlled substance that they could not transfer it. I informed the lady of this and in the background (not sure if it was a pharmacist or a tech) this guy seemed to make light of the situation and loudly remarked "Well I guess this is what happens when we have you by the balls."
I am requesting a refund of $48.93, the amount of money which I was forced to OVERPAY. My contact information is: [protected]@gmail.com and my cell# is [protected].
Thank you for your kind attention regarding this matter.
Sincerely,
J. Hunter Mafera MD, PhD

The Starbucks counter at the Bothell, Washington, Fred Meyers is still open. And I would like to know WHY?
From reports I've recieved: The customers do not respect social distancing
mandates or sanitary measures concerning currency exchanges.
The employees have not been issued appropriate protection.
A Starbuck's counter in Fred Meyers is NOT a critical service and your disregard for human safety is a great concern!
The Starbuck's Corporation has stated they are very concerned about employee safety...do they know the jeopardy your Fred Meyers is placing their employees and customers in?
I believe this is serious enough to alert information and news networks about. It's been well-documented that many of the people who have Covid-19 aren't aware of it in the initial stages. Even if one infected person every three hours comes into the store/Starbuck's counter--there are not adequate measures in-place to protect other Customers or Employees.
