Subway food

This Subway is out of things. They had no bowls for a salad one day. And another day they were out of turkey so we left both times. The last time we got take out...two turkey subs. One had hair in the bread. So we have not been back since. It used to be very good until they changed management. Also it was better when in a Flash Food Store.

I ordered two subs for work from this location. When I got to work I bit into my sub and the bread was stale. The bread cracked and crumbled all over my work desk. I asked my coworker if her bread was stale and she said yes. I contacted the store and made a complaint to a male. He told me that he made the bread fresh and implied that I was lying. I left...

Subway store lied about coupon and value on my gift card

I ordered a subway sub platter & was told my $5.00 off coupon could only be used if I bought a wrap or large sub . Not true! I had a $25 gift card and she told me it was only $15 left. I had just pulled it off the card as I stood there so I knew it was never used. When I told her that she rescanned it and agreed there was $25 on there. Very shady!

Subway store locked during operating hours

On December 3, 2018 I went to the Subway on Little Rd in Arlington, Texas. The time was 9:00 PM. The lights were turned down and the note on the door said, "On break. Be back shortly". I did see an employee momentarily at the serving area, but he went into the back. I waited in my car for about 20 minutes and decided to drive to another Subway on Kelly Elliott Rd in Arlington. I never did find the Subway so I drove back to the Subway on Little Rd thinking surely his "break" must be over by now. I arrived around 9:36 PM to find the store still locked up. I saw the employee momentarily in the back so I went to the door and knocked on the glass with my key. He never did come open the door. About a week before this (we eat there all the time) I came into the store and there was no one in the store. I waited about 20 minutes and the employee finally came into the store saying he "had to go to his car to get something". I think it was the same employee I saw tonight.

Subway refused to honor coupons

On 12/1/18 I tried to use a coupon for a $5.99 foot-long sub that I received just a few days ago. My grandson had a coupon also. I showed the employee the coupon I had, and told her that my grandson had one also. She said okay and started making the subs. I get these coupons via the phone all the time and always eat there when I can. I came to town (35 miles one-way!) to have the subs for dinner with my grandson because he wanted one. My whole family goes to that particular store (2515 Beene Blvd, Bossier City, LA 71111).

A 2nd employee said (when the subs were half made) that the coupon wasn't going to work for the subs. I said that I was invited (via the coupon) and will pay $5.99 for each. Nothing else was said at that point. When the subs were finished the 2nd employee rang it up and told me it would be $18.00 and change. I told her I had coupons for $5.99 each and two $5.99 subs don't add up to $18.00 (that was just for the subs mind you, no drink or anything extra).

She then argued with me about it and told me it will be $18.00 again. I told her the subs would be at the advertised coupon price or nothing. She refused so I left after warning her that I could bring a suit against the company because "bait and switch" tactics are illegal. She said (mockingly) that she was fine with that.

So we went to Fire House Subs and had a great sub sandwich. Subway just lost 12 customers.

A very unhappy customer!

Subway store closing to early.

My family visits the Subway store in Seminary, Ms. at least 2 to 3 times a month on Sunday night. We usually get to the store around 8:00 to 8:15 p.m. The biggest complaint up to tonight has been that they pour out the sweet tea around 8:00 p.m. even though the store closes at 9 p.m. Tonight we drive up and they're closing the store at 8:17 p.m. So, we drive 4 miles to go eat at Krystal.

Subway food

Not happy with my sub today, paid for 3 6" subs of which the Italian bread was stale with hardly any filling. I used to get a drink with my sub however was told I would have to pay more, fair enough if the sub was amazing but alas it was not. Taste very nice ruined by the bread. Wish I'd got a Greggs baguette and drink for £3 I really feel I've been ripped off!

Subway service

Attached is my Yelp review with picture of employee in which I complained about, 2nd is her very unprofessional response in which contrary to her response, there were only 3 people in the store at the time of my order, myself, the person taking the order and the one pictured of which was key to my complaint. I thought you (Subway) should be aware of the people you have working for you in a small community.

I posted a review about this Subway #28474) before and said it would be the last time we would go there. However, yesterday 11/19/18 on the way home from running errands, my husband and I decided to let our guard down and stop by there to try them again. Oh what a mistake that was. My husband went in as I waited in the car and was gone long enough to have two sandwiches made but came back empty handed. He was trying to tell the 'sandwich maker' what he wanted on the sandwiches. She wanted him to give her all the ingredients at one time but he was trying to decide what he wanted on each sandwich. There was only one other customer in the shop and she wanted to make that customer's sandwich and our sandwiches at the same time. She finished the first customer's order and should have checked her out and then she could have taken more time to finish our sandwiches.

The other customer asked to be checked out when her sandwich was complete and that's when things took an ugly turn. She (the sandwich maker) checked the lady out, left our two sandwiches on the counter and told my husband to call her when he decided what he wanted on the sandwiches. And then she went to the back of the store. Then she came back and told my husband made her "lose her religion" as she started throwing the 'f' word around: "get the '[censored] out of my store" she told him.

My husband asked for the manager and she stated that she was the manager. He then asked for the store owner and she wrote down her name, Sophia, the store owner's initials: Mr. H.P. and supposedly the owner's telephone number. My husband called the number when we got home and left a message but since we got no return call, we highly suspect she gave us an incorrect number.

My husband did nothing to warrant this type of treatment from this person and this will indeed be our last time going to this Subway even though it is minutes from where we live. Never been treated like this before at a Subway across the nation.

All of is a direct quote from my husband as I was not in the store at time. My husband tried to contact the supposed owner of the store, I submitted a complaint form to the Subway complaint department and they acknowledged they received it by email on 11/29/18, but to date, we have not heard from anyone about this complaint. Now it is time for me to post this on this board for all of you to read. And by the way, this is my second complaint about this same Subway (store #28474)

Subway server

It is 5:30 at night and I am having a bad day. I want subway when my server is as slow as a snail. She was clearly noticing that I was a bad mood and just kept talking to my children, when they didn't want to talk to her. Also it was rush hour and she took a whole 30 minutes to make 1 sand which. Please figure out who this woman is and have her have some tipe of punishment for her actions.

Note, what is worse is my son forgot his math book there. I was already having a bad day and she made it worse. I got so angry at my son that I punched him real hard. My other child tried to calm me down. Now I find out that she took down my license plate number and reported me. Since I was in the system before I am afraid that they will take my kids from me.

Subway chicken and dumpling soup

the soup had an unpleasant taste and it was very water downed. As a customer I am very dissatisfied with the service I received. I really feel that you guys should do better at serving customers and making sure that customers are happy and satisfied with the service that we are receiving. I really feel that this behavior should get reported to corporate. I hope you guys start doing better in serving customers. thanks.
Sincerely,
Jeriesha

Subway 2 pizzas and chicken bacon ranch sandwich

Visited the subway inside the pilot store #254 650 hey 299 Wildwood GA 30757 at 12:33 to get 2 pizzas one only cheese, the other peperoni along with a chicken bacon ranch sandwich. The guy working ( no name tag) fat guy with brown shoulder length hair, wearing a subway bandana on his head, mustache and gote puts the 2 pizzas In one microwave to cook the dough for 4-5 min. He Never told me when I ordered them that he had turned off the oven for the night. I learned the oven was shut off when I asked for my sandwich toasted. I realized he was cooking my pizzas in the microwave. This is an 24 hour subway. Why was the toasters off? Why was I not informed when I ordered the pizzas the oven was off? My food was not cooked as needed. The quality of this food was horrible. He also put my bacon on another customers sandwich and put in microwave when we pointed this out to him as he made a mistake he took it off and put bacon in correct sandwich. He then puts my sandwich In the microwave to be "toasted" . On top of this, he was very rude. This dude does not need to be working here if he can not do his job correctly. I have never been so furious about a meal but I will not visit this subway when he is working. This is unacceptable. I would like a refund for the food I paid for which was not how I wanted it.

Subway not washing hands and rude

I was recently at the Catawba Ohio Subway yesterday around lunchtime and their was an extremely rude employee working there. When I came in the door, she came straight put of the back and didn't wash her hands and came straight up and put gloves on. After I asked her to wash her hands she rolled her eyes and began to give me attitude. She wasn't very friendly and was very disrespectful. She has a name tag on that said Justine.
