food order
JIB# 3641
Ordered 2 tacos w/extra lettuce
1 cheeseburger w/secret sauce
I received 6 tacos which i did pay for w/little to no lettuce and a cheesburger w/no cheese and was told they were out of secret sauce.
I love Jack in the Box but do not eat fast foods often, so i was so looking forward to enjoying the taste of the of my favorite junk foods.
The pronlem is, if i have to stop and check my order in the fast food line everytime i go than there is nothing fast about it.
Employees need to pay more attention to orders. My receipt clearily stated tacos w/extra lettuce and a cheesburger, neither in which i got.

unfair working conditions
i work at the jack in the box in Pasadena, Ca. Store #323. This has happend to me twice already, i've been suspended from work for a week without so much as a phone call to let me know.. i've been expected to just show up to work and find out im not on the schedule at all... i wonder if this is against the law... my manager has been giving me 4 hours A WEEK! and crazy schedules like midnight to 4 on a Saturday night... and i dont even have a car.. i'm expected to take the bus at those hours? i wonder how you are supposed to take those orders out on time when the people you work with all go upstairs at the same time to do god knows what for hours and i'm left by myself to do everything.. and then I get in trouble for not being fast enough... completely unfair if you ask me! almost enough to make me want to sue...

Hi This is Maria, I was trying to make a complaint but not sure if I’m at the right place. I worked at this location for a few weeks, I’ve worked for jack in the box for 10 yrs and I decided to work part time at this location for my upcoming vacation. I was fired without an explanation and was unable to contact the manager as he had blocked my number. Through out my employment there I saw several issues.. There was a team member working under the name of Melecio Martines that was taking money from the registers and using it for their personal use, then he would make orders to replace the money he would take. He would also call others to clock him in and get there a few hours later. Other employees would do the same and he would return the favor. This person also took money from the jack in the box safe, using it for personal use and would replace it in time for management not to notice. I have prof of insidents with call records and times and dates. When I brought some issues to attention I was let go a few days later and it angers me that they see what’s happening and fire the people that are being honest instead of someone that can do this type of thing. Many times I also saw fake dollar bills given to customers and they would keep the original real money. On occasions sex would occur while an order was taking place and food would be getting done. The manager was part of the problem too since I didn’t want anything to do with him I feel that’s the other reason I was let go. I notified the owner and GM about the issues but it seems it is not as important and like this man Melecio had mocked me before, he could do what ever he wanted without being fired. This person is working under false information his name is Roberto Salazar and I have prof of that.
I HAVED WORKED FOR JACK ON AND OFF FOR 11 YEARS.I HAVE WENT THROUGH SO MANY MANAGERS AND DISTRICT MANAGERS IT SUCKS. NOW I FIND OUT I AM(DNR)BY THIS DISTRICT MANAGER NAMED STEVEN. WITH OUT NOTICE AND HE HAS BEEN TREATING ME UNFAIR SINCE I MET HIM HIS FIRST DAY. I WENT TO GO BACK TO WORK AND THEY TOLD ME I WAS DNR AND WOULD NOT TELL ME WHY, I WOULD HAVE TO TALK TO STEVEN. WICH HE IGNORES MY CALLS AND WHEN HE DID SAID I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY TO YOU. MY WIFE IS TOTALY DISABLED AND I NEED MY JOB, BUT HE IS KEEPING ME FROM IT. WHAT CAN I DO?PLEASE HELP ME.
My husband and I had eaten a sirloin burger and a jumbo jack with cheese. In less then 24 hours we both had food poisoning. I tried calling the corporation and filing the complaint but I was told there was nothing that could be done without a full emergency room report. Neither one of us can afford an ER bill right now. I just wanted to let them know About the situation so they could prevent It from happening to someone else. Don't eat at the jack in the box on east wade Hampton blvd in south carolina. It's next to a Walmart. They are very unclean and don't seem to care about there customers well being.
There was a line of about 8 cars at Jack in the box and i was being rushed. I ordered my food, gave them my card got my food and left. It wasn't until i got to work that i realized I didn't have my credit card. I called the jack in the box to see if they had it. They denied it and i had to cancel my card and now wait for a new card to come. This is the third time that they had forgotten to give me my card. You could say that i should have asked for it back, but it's not my job to ask for it and quiet frankly i was being rushed and forgot. How hard is it for them to give me my damn card back? I'm a poor college student, and without a credit card, I'm outa luck for money the next couple days.
I was in this restuarnt this morning for breakfast at approx. 8am. After placing my order I sat down at a dirty table and noticed all of them were dirty, the serving counters had food and beverage stains all over them, the trash collection area was cluttered with old food and the inside area was buzzing with flies. I was unable to finish eating due to the dirty condition. I doubt if I will return to this convient stop. There is no excuse for a dirty eating area. Sorry Jack but I can't come back.

i live down the road and have been going to jack for years now, i love to eat late at night and usually i don't mind waiting 10 min to get my food, but recently there have been many other people eating the delicious jack burgers at 2-3 am and i am tired of waiting for up to 30 min on my food because there is only 1 person working, the management needs to make sure there are at least 2 if not 3 people working the night shift, i hate having to go to mcdonalds, so please take care of this issue, again the jack is on eldridge at briar forest 77077, thanks
I am very disappointed with the commercials that Jack in the Box is running. They do not need the sexual or other inappropriate behavior to sell their food. The commercials should encourage people to eat their food, not disgust them. I will not eat at a Jack in the Box unless the commercials clean up.
08-21-12, I wanted to try the all sooo advertised "all american combo meal", what I tasted was DISGUSTING! the meat was DRY. buns were SOGGY & FF was stale & cold! The enter ingredients was MUSHY and I was VERY DISAPPOINTED! I Couldn"t eat it & had driven too far to return the combo mess! The sad thing is I had not eaten @ this establishment in many many years & thought with all the advertisment, Jack in the Box had gotten better... GOD knows I was wrong wrong & wrong. Becareful of what you THINK can CHANGE, you maybe throwing your money away tooooo!
We ordered four sour dough breakfast jacks with bacon, and we received four sour doughs with two pieces of cheese and bacon, no egg. My husband went in the store and complained, they said they couldn't hear the order well. We went through the drive thru, and it was the store on Dana Avenue in Redding, Ca. They also thought we only wanted one, and we even repeated the order to make sure at the window. Still received the wrong order.
after buying a all american jack and eating it at work about3to4hours late I had server stomach pains, it feltso bad I thought I needed to go to ER?
foriegn object found in food
SOOO ANGRY and DISGUSTED! My husband & I went to Jack in the Box for dinner. I was good and just got grilled chicken strips. We got home, I ate one of them and as I bit into the 2nd one I felt something strange in my mouth. It was a COARSE BLACK PUBIC HAIR... I am SOOOOOOOOOO disgusted! I can not believe that I pulled a coarse black PUBIC hair out of MY MOUTH. I mean seriously, how in the world does that get into food?! Shocked, angry and absolutely DISGUSTED! I used to eat their grilled chicken strips at least once a week, love them, but don't think I can ever even go to Jack in the Box ever again. Makes me want to throw up just thinking about it. (my family has asked me if it could possibly be a hair that has fallen off of someones arm, etc. ABSOLUTELY NOT, this is DEFINITELY from the pubic region. I still have it as proof, only because I am going to be calling corporate today. Tried calling the store immediately after it happened, got a teenage boy on the phone (the shift supervisor) and did not feel that my story would have been taken seriously, calling corporate today. I am very upset, reasonably so!

I am still laughing but I don't eat there. A disgruntled employee either at the factory or at the restaurant put it there.
Jack In The Box employees are nasty.
Jack can you read this.
im prego & allergic! jack doesnt care!
Im allergic to ketchup & tomatoes, just stepped out of the hospital, & am obviously pregnant. I asked for a deluxe burger at the Spring, tx store #107, w/out tomatoes, circled back through the drive thru when discovering them on the burger & politely explained twice to the polite drive thru girl who explained she could'nt understand us & asked us to come to...

The custermer care wa fine, but time was exceded more than ten min.The team leader gave me a free chocolate shake and told me 2 park in the front.When the girl came 2 give me my order i just checked if everything was there.Once i get home my sowerdough jack didnt have any cheese, only one of my jack spicies had cheese, and the ultimate cheese didnt have cheese.I have been a custumer of Jack in the Box for yaers i know what the hamburger contain.My order came 2 be to almost 33 dollers.I had familly at home even thought my order wasnt correct they were hungry after thier long trip.It was an embarresedment.I steped outside to call the restarount.A young lady answered very nicely and lisened to me, but she couldnt really help me and handed the phone to the shift leader.I explaind my complain once more, He hesitaded.He told me i placed everything in the bag and made sure it was correct. I told him u checked my food befor it was wraped.He rudely answered oviiously.He told me he coulnt do anything and said that he even gave me a shake and im still complaning. I told him i will go and pay it what i want is my food the way it has to be.He said he couldnt help me.It was the rudest conversation i had ever had with a manager i usually dont complain, but i pay for what i want.THis insident happend on may 20, 2009 around 6:45.My name is Maria Mendoza and i would like the general manager to check his reatarount and make sure all the employees make the food the correct way.Jack in the Box has the best hamburger in my opinion but i think insidednt like these will make me and my family to go somewere else

awful experience
Like about a week ago I got a shake, as the young man was taking the money from the car in front of my mustang. He was steering and grinning at my girl, he gave change still I noticed he wasn't focusing on his work but on my girl friend. So even as his handing out the order he was still steering at her, as I i am shocked that he has a stupid smurk on his face. I pulled over and talked to the manager and tried to explain the situation but immediately denied his actions, so I asked her so your covering up for him. She denied that to so I walked out furiously out the door and insulted. Description of employee young kid with braces Manager description not completely obese but over weight pony-tail, brown hair attitude Mexican I think with light skin.

sir,
The only conclusion in my humble opinion toward your compliant is a young man admiring your girlfriend during this business exchange. Hm, sounds like you are insecure and jeolous toward any man looking at your girlfriend. This person didn't cheat you out of your money. Perhaps next time, leave your girlfriend in the vehicle in the parking lot and enter to place your order..hm, she might still be waiting in the parking lot ... you sound immature...

poor service
Cruddy service, absolutely clueless manager, cars piled up in front of and on the sides of the restaurant waiting for their food. I was so disgusted at the long wait, I decided to just leave as they never took my order. Unfortunately, one of their employees had parked his/her car partially blocking the drive thru so I was forced to wait while the fat...

During my lunch time I decided to go through drive thru at this Jack in The Box and simply ordered an Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburger. I pay at the window and grab my food and when i get to work i see the burger is not only the wrong burger but also has "NO MEAT" in it. Just what kind of joke is this? So i head back to the restaurant and gave my bag back to the girl whom appeared as a shift leader of some sort. I asked her to correct my order and return my money for the inconvenience and for their mistake, "NOT MINE" theirs. She then gave me a new burger and offered fries and a drink which I said "no thank you, the burger will do". As i waited for my cash return, she looked at me in confusion and told me she could only replace one or the other not both. I gave her burger back and asked for my money instead and told her I would rather spend my money elsewhere if the treatment of complaints will be of such manner. Whatever happened to customer service?

My son went with a friend to Jack in the box and they ordered a drink and curley fries. While they were eating the manager told them to get out of the store and never come back! When my son told me that when he got home, I questioned it because it did not sound right so I asked my son what happened and he said he didn't know. He said that he dropped a fry and bent down to pick it up and the manager started yelling at them to leave and not come back. My son said they had both asked the manager if he could at least tell them why and the manager just kept ignoring them. So I called the Jack and Box to try and find out what happened and I asked for a manager and it sounded like he tossed the phone down and just left it off the hook and no one ever came to the phone. It had been setting off the hook for aprox 15 minutes before my husband and I went down there to see what happened. I thought maybe they were too busy to come to the phone .When we got there, there was only one customerin the store. So we asked him about the incident and he said it was him and he threw them out because my sons friend was coughing in the store. So I told him he threw them out and told them to NEVER come back because he was coughing in the store? And he got real snippy and said "yes" and he also was spitting. I said where was he spitting? And he said, " Well he was coughing and spitting." Well I came to get the Genaral Managers number and store number and he walked off and started ignoring us off. The when we had to tell him again that we wanted information to the General Manager he yelled at us and told You'll get it when HE"S ready, and I said yea like when you just droopped the phone and left me hanging earlier which I did not appreciate. He started yelling, I did not do that I talked to you! I said no you didnt, maybe it was the other parent but it was not me! And he said Yes it was YOU! Then he walks off and disappears, and we waited for probably 5 minutes maybe longer waiting for him to come back with the number. I finally went out to my car to try and get some paper and a pen to write the number down and when I came back in my husband said he told him he called the cops on us. Okay so whatever, I came to get the general Managers number and the guy said heres the number and rudely points to a little pamplet that says a 1-800-Jack number. Then he says " You havent heard the last from me." and so we left and had to drive to Baycliff which is about 7 miles away just to get a number from the Baycliff store because the manager was so rude and uncooperative at the other one. So while I was waiting this morning for the 1800 number to even open, I found all the websites here of reviews. I was shocked at some of these reviews. I also found a corporate website and when I went in to file a complaint with it, it takes you through a form that gives all your private information and then gives you options to show what store it number it was and when you click on it it places the store location and number at the bottom of the complaint and it just redirects your complaint to the management of that store. That really worried me because the manager had already said, this is not the last time you hear from ME." This guy would of had all my information so now I am going to have to try and speak with a Corporate manager. I did speak with my son's friends mother about it later that evening and she said she had called and talked to the manager and the manager told her that they had done NOTHING Wrong but that he told her her son was coughing in the store. So when I got there he had a real attitude... A BAD ONE! Thats not a good thing especially since probably MORE than half of their business comes from kids across the street at the high School.

I don't think the coughing was the issue, I think it was the spitting. If his cough was that bad he should have went to the restroom. Would you want to eat in a place where someone was spitting.
bad food
Ordered (2) tacos. They were falling cold and falling apart and put in the same taco sleeve. Normally there is one taco per sleeve. Needless to say they were not eatable. The location of this jack in the box is:
4403 fannin
Houston, texas 77004

The name on the receipt is crystal
Interesting, they were put in the same sleeve?What employee thought that would be acceptable?
cold food

closure
I recently was returning home when I stopped in a Jack In the Box franchise that I usually stop. It was passed the opening time and I was told they were closed. After talking to a patron he told the new manager was scared to open because of the Louisiana people that may be evacuating from Hurricane Gustav. I waited a while and left hungry. I was not evacuating I was just going home after a Labor Day vacation. When I left I saw all their lazy ### sitting at on of the tables drinking coffee and reading the newspaper. The complaint will probably not go anywhere but I think the idiots need to know that they are hiring lazy ###s that don't do their jobs. By the way, it was after 6 am.
TO: ispeakenglish, do you? PERSON WHO KEEPS WRITING RUDE REMARKS!
YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE. THIS IS NOT YOUR PERSONAL WEBSITE TO GO AROUND BASHING PEOPLE FOR YOUR OWN INSECURITIES. YOU SOUND LIKE A VERY HORRIBLE PERSON. ALL YOUR POSTS HAVE BEEN PUTTING PEOPLE DOWN. I DON'T KNOW HOW AN AWEFUL PERSON LIKE YOU COULD SLEEP AT NIGHT.
GROW UP! FIND ANOTHER WEBSITE TO COMPLAIN ON AND I WOULD ADVISE BEFORE YOU GO BASHING PEOPLE EVER AGAIN YOU TAKE A GOOD LOOK IN THE MIRROR OF WHAT IMAGE YOU GIVE PEOPLE ABOUT YOURSELF!
"this is a service, not a privliage"...
wow, how about you take YOUR lazy butt home and make some food yourself? this is a service, not a privliage. you really should think about taking some cooking classes, what if these restaurants were closed down for a week or so? you'd die from no food. people like you really are getting too demanding. i would assume they were clocked off waiting for the call from corporate to go home. do you expect them to go cook YOUR food with no pay? i wouldn't. so selfish.
terrible service
This jack in the box notoriously hires illegal aliens. Everyone in cottonwood knows it, and has to make adjustments in their orders. Don't even try going thru the drive thru. You must order in spanish or you will not get your order. I have stood inside and gave my order to the girl they have running the only register and told her, point blank, that I don't...

9/12/07 Stopped at the so.Everett #8307 JIB for a supreme breakfast sandwich. A gal who had been cooking with gloves on, came to the register and waited on customers, handling money with gloves on, then turned and continued handling and serving food with the same gloves. Will not go there again if this is their normal practice.

Went to jack in the box this morning, the food was so gross. the eggs where so dried, the hashbrowns so greasey. nothing good about this breakfast! everything tasted as if where a few days old. never again will i eat breakfast there.
