My brother and I are from Spain. Being from Spain, our first language is Spanish but we are fluent in English as it is our second language. We are caucasian Spaniards. Not that it matters as Spain is very diverse in races. This is a negative experience as the woman in Drive Thru was coming off racist. Going through the Drive Thru, my brother tries to order...

KFC Rejecting the refund of the meal price which was cancelled by cfc due to overload

On the 8th of April; I have requested a meal through the wbsite of CFC in Jeddah - Saudi Arabia and the company is rejecting to refund the amount of 125 SR in spite of many trials to call them.

The order number is [protected]
The order Date is 8/04/2020

This behavior from un-resposible management makes the image of KFC in a very bad situation and makes me very reluctant to order any meal from any KFC branch in Canada, Saudi Arabia or Egypt where i have frequent visits.

Thanks,

KFC All products in all times

The only restaurant in the world that does not recognize that the food provided is food for humans not for a beasts, I spend 20 years of my life and I deal with restaurants except that the possibility of submitting the order cold or the soft drink without gas or the sandwiches provided are cold or withered is a possibility of only 1% Except KFC, the probability is 99%, and the possibility of submitting the order in normal way is only 1% only))))))) We are not asking a miracle from you, just respecting the customer and to provide food in a way that is suitable for eating without the employee's objection, or asking the manager for something that is basically my right, you're taking your full right so please give us our right.

Thanks and best regards hope I will find reply to my email [protected]@alamindecor.com

KFC Wait time

KFC Bukit Sentosa Rawang
Store ID: 1010820
April 4, 2020
Paid for meal and still had to wait in the heat for over 30 minutes to get it.
There wasn't many people waiting at the time. Wait time shouldn't be this long.

KFC Chicken

To whom it may concern,
What are the black flakes on all the chicken. Is it black pepper. I'm allergic to black pepper and there are a lot of consumer that can't digest black pepper. I will take your chicken to a county food alliance to detect the black pepper on all your chicken. The chicken was so crunchy and tasteful back in the 90's.
Your corporate must to of went to a cheaper chicken product. The chicken taste like there's a lot of steroids. Can you please make your chicken without the pepper flakes.
Thank you

KFC Order not delivered

I ordered before the closing time. After an hour when I called the helpline to check the status of my order, I was told that my order has been cancelled and can not be delivered. It was 3:45 in the morning and I had to sleep hungry. I had ordered at 2:50 and the branch closes at 3 but still my order got cancelled. I was not notified until I called which kept me waiting for more than an hour. Very disappointed and hangry.

KFC quality of product

On Feb 14th 2020 we purchased a 12 piece box of chicken at the above address. It contained 8 wings and four other pieces of chicken that did not have much meat on them. It tasted burnt or over cooked. We filed a complaint and received a validation code of 58911. We went to the store today with this validation code. It did not mean anything to the manager.
I would like to know what you did with this complaint and what benefit is it to the customer to complain. my e mail address is derrill.hynick @bellaliant.net

KFC Employee careless attitude

I have visited this particular KFC 6 times in the last 4 months and each time I swear I will not go back. Every employee I have encountered have been slow and inefficient with I dont care attitudes. Every time I experience that at this location I think about the wonderful employee's at Chick-fil-A and popeyes chicken.
Here is my most recent experience:
Pulled up to speaker and after several minutes of no response I tried talking to speaker in hopes they just hadnt noticed that I pulled up. After 4 more minutes an employee finally came over speaker asking for my order. Note: I would have given up and pulled away but I was blocked in by another car behind me. I ordered a #4 meal (4pc tenders, mashed potato's and a Pepsi. I was told the total was $6.81. After 10 more minutes waiting on the 2 cars in front of me to get their order I arrived at window, confirmed the order with a Pepsi and handed the employee a Ten dollar bill and the exact .81 cents in change. She put it in register and handed me back 3 $1. bills. I advised her it should have been $4. change, she looked stumped and reopened register and proceeded to hand me .19 cents change. Once again I advise her that I gave her $10.81 towards a $6.81 bill. Her response was "whatever" and she gave me the dollar I was owed. She for the 3rd time asked me what the drink was and I told her Pepsi. She returned, handed me my drink and closed the window without a thank you or any kind of courtesy. I left vowing never to return and yes you probably guessed...I didnt get a Pepsi, but got iced tea? Never again.

When you pay your money for hot fried chicken then that is what you expect to get. Instead you get refried chicken. Then when you ask for fresh chicken you get an attitude. What happen to the customer is always right? Also the one on Hillsborough is the same way. they be in there playing and arguing with one another and make you not want to eat there. Very...

KFC chicken 12 piece offer

I had ordered kfc chicken online today dated 10/03.. around 4pm.
The mega deal offer 12 piece chicken and medium fries.. costing 45 qar. My order number is 6469119. What I found was that the chicken was all hard and dry. Its not seeming fresh. I think it is old stock. I had to throw it coz I just cudnt chew the chicken properly as it was very dry and stale. Only one or two pieces seemed fresh. I think the more offers ur giving the more the customers are getting cheated. I hope this won't be repeated next time. We lost our money buying this and hope we won't lose our health too...! 😓

KFC Very poor quality of food served.

Visited the above branch of KFC on 3-9-2020 about 1.30 pm ordered REG BOX ML, fillet burger, chicken, cobette, regular fries twice with a friend plus one coke and one still water.When food arrived fries were very dark and oily (fried twice) even on some of the fries the skin was still on. My friend took the fries back and was given another two portions which were hardly any different to the first lot. cobette's were very tasteless as they were sealed in a small bags with juice. How are the managers allowed to operate KFC branches with such poor quality food service? Sorry to say it will be the last time we use KFC because of the poor quality of food. The last time i had KFC was about 5-6 years ago from a branch in Tottenham High Road, North London where the food was at a much higher standard. My friend even had to go to hospital after he started vomiting because of the heavy taste of oil. KFC had better look into this as they will be losing a lot of customers if they continue serving food at this standard.

KFC Chicken

First I waited 45 minutes for 7pc Meal and Fill up Meal. I was at work all day and then after coming home to feed my family, they were excited to eat KFC again. But it ended there because 1 bite in and the chicken was full of blood. Every single piece, and we decided to throw it away. That chicken could potentially get someone sick, I'm deciding to speak up. I literally wasted my hard earned $35! I had to buy more food for the family because the chicken wasn't safe to eat. KFC used to be white rich chicken, now its lost its original taste and is bloody. I'm so disappointed in the company, they have been losing their original taste and value for awhile but now this crosses the line. I will not eat here again and will advocate others to not eat KFC unless they change what they serve to their loyal customers.

You are so right the original Kernel taste is gone. The chicken has a tasty taste. Don't eat there like I use to.
