I have been on hold with customer service for 25 min. I have to say that this is the worst order I have ever gotten. The chicken is very greasy, no white meat and even the fries were poor quality. Maybe your oil is old I don't know but you should not be serving such poor food to paying customers. I don't order from KFC very often because it's always a...

My husband told kfc several times of my allergy several times!!! The manager even gave us the food and said they were cautious. They smothered my potatoes with the very ingredient that my husband made them very aware that I was allergic to! The worst part is not having to go to the hospital because I almost died!!! But the spit in the face they gave me by...

KFC I am complaining about the Wingham Ontario location. Very greasy chicken and dark in colour.

I purchased a 6 piece box of chicken for $10.00 plus tax. We were having to eat it on our drive back home to Goderich. We would have turned right around to return it if we didn't have to travel an hour to get home.
I am submitting pictures of the darkness and the grease that was on the chicken and at the bottom of the box. This was so disgusting.
We feel that they obviously have not changed the oil for some time and our chicken was dripping with it and tasted terrible.
We had very greasy chicken there the last time we traveled to Wingham and with this happening again, this time being the worst we have ever experienced from there, I just had to let you know what is going on there.

Thank you

I paid nearly $40 for my order. The receipt was correct, but I received a different order. My ticket# 1753 showed my $30 fill up order with extra gravy and coleslaw. What I received was tenders, potatoes & gravy and biscuits. NO COLE SLAW, NO ORIGINAL CHICKEN!!! You owe me a meal! This was at 6:39 pm today 5/12/20 I tried calling the location 12 calls, 20...

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...
