Walmart
Reviews and Complaints

The card was easy to buy as a gift card that was marketed as usuable anywhere Visa is accepted To activate this card was a big pain and took almost two hours of repeating and repeating and repeating the information requested. I tried both the computer and the phone number listed and neither worked. I finally got it registered by phone on the fourth try. I also was told that the first deduction of the monthly fee would be made May 17, just 10 days after activation. There was a fee of $3.00 just to buy the darn thing.

There are many fees listed for the use of this card that are not usual on a gift card. I will never, never purchase a Visa gift card through Walmart and I will also tell everybody within hearing distance.

This is the 3rd time I rent a movie from the red box at walmart and the dvd skips or pauses its the most annoying thing when ur setting down trying to watch a movie and it keeps skipping I was realy disapointed and upset to see that it happend to me again!

Cashier(Miriam) not speaking very good English and not noting products in shopping card that required hand-scanning. Then not understanding customer wished check made out for $20.00 over purchase amount and customer having to write out two checks to cover purchases(3 bags of softener salt) plus initial purchases. Then not requiring signature on 2nd check. Customer had to go to Customer service manager-she was to busy and had another employee open register tohave check signed. Then report of this was called into store management. Manager Joan then attempted to placate customer with %10.00 gas card as situation of customer living 50 miles away and did not have gas-station(Wal-mart) access and long distance call involved. After telling customer would send gift card instead and taking name and address stated card would be sent that day. Two days later customer still hadn't received card--talked with manager Todd again was told gift card was to be sent immediately and should be there on saturday. No Card. Called again and was "placated: with a $20.00 off. Cards-no apology note or explanation in envelope. Customer's name mispelled on both envelopes and both envelopes addressed (identically) after customers name was spelled not once but three times! Calls to 1-800-Wal-mart were answered and treated (seemed) with as much indifference. Gift cards didn't mean a "damn" thing but the "insult" of inattention to the details of the customers suggests that this store and its operation needs much training in customer service! Especially in attention to details such as a customers name.

A lady from the Phillippines called me to say I was overdue with
a payment. I checked and saw my last payment in the amount
of $200.00 was paid on 10/22/2009. She said she didn't see it.

After much ado I paid another $200.00 via phone giving her
my routing number and checking account number. This was
yesterday, October 29th.

Just now I checked my Walmart account and see yesterday's
payment has not been credited.

HELP ! What's going on?

First of all we have to son's in iraq and spend a lot of money in your store. I had purchased some graham crackers pie crust to do ndividual pie to send to the troops, I noticed when ready to bake yesterday they were outdated, so I went toyour store and was very rudely told that without a receipt I was unable to make an exchage so I told them to keep it an outdated possible bad food item that could made any soldier ill is not what I wanted. This is the rudest thing I have ever heard of, of course I am not predejuice but many others were getting refunds on all sorts of expensive electronics and I am stund. I intend to tell all my friends that are purcahsing for our troops that are protecting this counrty and the right for your eployee to even have a job to not shop there as I as an american have the right to be treated with as much respect as another and my husband up to this day spends hundreds a week supporing troops and buying from your store. I am highly offended and who by the way saves a grocery receipt.

I work as a 2nd shift ICS/Unloader at store in Everett WA, WalMart is extremely cheap and stingy on pay for thier associates in comparison to the work we do. Despite being the most physically demanding job in the store and the fact that they keep adding more and more tasks and responsibilities to our shift the pay is lame at best only 40 cents over minimum wedge. Also they have been testing new procedures in our store in which our shift is responsible to complete additional tasks and having us work faster to unload the GM trucks so we can assist 3rd shift in the tasks they are supposed to finish.
Now I transfered from another store and they didnt have nearly as many additional responsibilities to worry about, it was unloading the trucks, taking the merchandise to the floor, separating, break packs, maby a carryout or two and cleaning up after; as opposed to Unloading trucks, zoneing departments, mixing paint, carryouts, picks, bin audits, bin dumps, trailer listing, assisting night stock, downstacking remix pallets, breakpacks, processing apperal, cleaning up and organizing the receiving area.
I think that with more physical and mental stress and responsibility should come more pay, asif the pay wasnt already crappy for the original tasks we are supposed to have my store keeps adding more and more without any increase in pay. I wouldnt reccomend working as a 2nd shift ICS/Unloader unless you want to spend your first 3-6 hours+(even more during holidays) sweating, twisting, acheing and bending while unloading [protected] peice trucks, pulling pallets up to 2665lbs with ### half broken jacks while Managment sits there yelling FASTER! FASTER!, only to have tons more ### to do after your main objective is complete. All for half-assed pay.

I have not had netscape for 2 years but they have no problem taking the monthly fee out of
My account every month! Their web site of coarse does not have any phone numbers so one
Can contact them... What a scam! The first thing that comes to mind is "class action suit"
I have seen several complaints about this and I think something should be done about it!

My family and I had an extremely lousey experience at this Walmart. The deli had an employee by the name of Dentay working who didn't care to recongize anyone waiting for help and then I had a cashier have a problem with keying in the wrong amount of cash I gave her and then not giving me the correct amount back after adding it on my receipt. I went to the service desk which the young lady told me she couldn't help me? They had the slowest and most laziest employees in this store and I would never visit this Walmart again. We talked with the assistant Manager and expained to her the issues and told her she couldn't fix a problem she knew nothing about until was told. I think the man in the deli was out in space...how sad that you can't find good help in those parts.

I was at walmart on Craig Rd with my 2 year old daughter 18 year old step son his girlfriend 17 and her little sister 15 and a family friend 18. We have been out and about shopping since 9am at various stores. We spent over a hour walking around walmart. I got a few food items as well as toys for my girls and clothes. All the registers were filled with long lines as usual and the jewerly counter associate got my attention and said she could ring me up. I pulled what I thought was everything out of the cart and paid for them. I handed my step son my wallet and told him I had to use the restroom and would meet them at the car. While in the restroom I heard his girlfriend say hurry up so I came out to wash my hands and call my boyfriend. As I was pulling my phone out of my pocket a male grabbed my biecep and said give me your F*&^%ing phone B*&^% and slammed me into the wall. I started screaming get your hand off me someone help me so my friend tried coming in he pushed her back. I had no idea who he was and kept screming for him to let me go . I was terrified. He grabbed my other arm and drug me out of the restroom. My daughter was behind him as he was dragging me and pulling me and lifting me off the ground revealing my body to others in the store she was crying and screaming No My Mommy. Once he dropped me to the ground and I tried crawling away he then said get the F*&^% up and he had me in front of a small door he opened it and threw me to the floor. I was in tears and hurting very badly. Everyone that was with me came in to. The EMTS came ans advised me to seek medical attention at the hospital but I refused to leave my daughter. They called the police and I was arressted on Burglery. I go to court next week and am trying to find an attorney to represent me to go after walmart for assualt and battery. I am a single mother of 2 and scared the justice will not be prevailed for me. What Walmart did was un just and has caused my daughter night terriors and myself anxiety. I will write back once I am done with court to share with the people what the outcome is.

My husband works for Walmart and I've always trusted them with my personal shopping needs so I figured I could trust them when looking for a wedding band. WRONG! The only ring I could find and could afford that looked good with my engagement ring was white gold with 5 small diamonds along the top of it, it was only $140 which I thought was a steal. Apparently, it was. I've had this ring for about 2 months now and it's starting to turn a copper color. I don't have my receipt and now I'm stuck with this fake piece of crap and I'm out $140. ### Walmart and their "quality certified" jewelry promise.

bait and switch is a common practice in the world of free market but sad to say the wal mart world monopoly also has started to practice some of these same hard sell tactics. For example one of the more common practices of this is to place merchandise over the wrong shelf price as your complaint suggests but the more deceptive practice was disclosed to me by the stores management only after my formal complaint was addressed to him through the CEO MIKE DUKE IN ARK. AND HERE IS WHAT I WAS TOLD: "It is wal marts practice to place merchandise in a discount/closeout section of the store without a discount price marked on it while awaiting a reduced price to be sent down from the main office". Hopefully this is not an example of what is to come in the new world order of monopoly because it is an absolute deception to miss lead shoppers into assuming they can receive a discounted price at the register only to be humiliated as a spectacle to others when you are debating why you are being charged the regular price with no discount offered to you. well needless to say I found out the hard way while standing in the check out line for nearly 30 min. as the debate continued leaving those viewing to conclude that I was trying to get something for a reduced price when the store intended to get full price by way of this bait and switch policy. Whats worse is the fact that wal mart acknowledges this practice but refuses to change their methods by keeping the unmarked supposed discounted item off the discount shelf until they can properly display a discount price on the item.

Purchased 6 months ago. Won't heat up, light on switch is on. Confirmed thermostat is bad but can't find a source of replacement parts.

i had a perscription transferred from walgreens to walmart because it was on the list as a $4.00 drug. i was told that it would be taken care of immediately, that they would call walgreens. that was at 2pm. when i went to pick up the drug at 4;30 on my way home from work, i was informed that they hadn't called walgreens as they had told me. that it would be another 21/2 hrs before it would be ready! this is not the first time. i can't believe the incompentance of this pharmacy! no matter whether you call ahead or leave the rx. it takes forever to get it filled! the wait time is ridiculous! when i called at 7pm to see if it was ready they got VERY hateful with me and said YES its ready! to top it all off when i got there they couldn't find the rx! she just laughed it off and said " i know its here someplace" another 20min. wait, while they found it laying on a shelf where the rx are filled! totally incompentant! an elderly lady in line with me had been waiting for 21/2 hrs for her rx to be filled! not good customer service! i really think this should be looked into. i know i won't be using this pharmacy ever again! we now have a new meijer in our area and i will check and see if i get better service there. thank you and i hope this is looked into. lisa delgado
