Walmart
Reviews and Complaints

I just purchased a coffee maker from walmart that was priced at $3.94. When I got to check out it rang up at $17.88. I explained that this wasn't the price listed. After waiting 20 min for someone to take responsibility for this and approve this $3.94 price I was told no one wanted to discount it $3.94. I was told they would take 10% off. At this point I wanted the coffee maker for the price it was listed for. I'm tired of walmart not taking responsibility for their error and this must be addressed.

I have had the same experience at Walmart, but for a much cheaper item. I believe it was some type of household cleaner. I checked the price before getting to the register, the employee said the was the tag was wrong and put the item back in the "wrong" spot. I asked the price again when I was ready to pay, they couldn't do anything. I worked at Target years ago, and they change prices, no questions asked, ESPECIALLY when it is their error (no matter the price). Today, for the third time I checked Walmart to see if they had a vacumn cleaner listed in their ad. Again, they don't have it. But they did try to sell me an identical one, same model-different color for more money. Their ad says that if the item is sold out they will sell you a similar item for the same price. Here I had the identical item but they wouldn't honor their ad. The ad also says that they give rainchecks. Yet I was told that they couldn't do that either. I just left, especially since I have bought two supposedly new vacumns from there that broke within days. I just thought since it was close and a good deal...

Almost ate a chunk of glass! found in mouth from chip bag.!
Careful! Do Not Buy!

Ty, I can the store. The manufacturer for these product is another thing...

plus my tooth hurts still!

Walmart has become one of the largest Flea markets of all time, when i go inside of one of these stores i fell like im at the flea market on a weekend, thats how bad this store has gotten over the years, they treat there workers like a paid slave also its become very bad .

I've been using a Wal-mart/ G.E. Money Bank card for year when in Febuary i had a card get Canceled because i used a nickname on the card after many hours on the phone and yelling cussing and screaming and 6 months i was told by a supervisor that the refund check has been cashed but i never got the check. I have been trying since Feb 23 09 to get this check sent to me but it seems to me that the company is running a scam, I'm just going to Sue them I'm tired of them beating around the bush and lying to me about what they have or haven't done With MY money.

The card comes in very nice package. No where on it does it say that the gift giver is to activate it! This must be a post from Walmart since I have informed them of the fact that this posting is happening and they need to fix their problem.

SUCCESS! I received the check yesterday for $28.

Okay, not sure if I am going to be receiving a $28 refund check but this is what I was able to do. I called [protected] and went under the option of card is stolen, punched in the card number and was directed to a customer care specialist, I automatically asked for a supervisor. They will want to know why, automatically state that you are aware of the scam and you are wanting to speak to a supervisor asap. By the way, you are calling the Phillipines. The service calls are being sent their. I was able to tell from the accent and that made them even more nervous. Explain that you have called SEVERAL times, which I had and you needed to get a hold of someone in the US that you could file a complaint with. They are ready to help you now. They will FINALLy attempt to activate your card. Tell them, you've read the website complaints and that is not going to work either and that you want a full refund. They will take down your name and address, ask them what the amount of the check will be, they informed me $25 for the value and $3 for the activation fee, so I am to get a check in 7-10 days for $28. I will come back and post if and when I receive the check.

OMG you took a picture of her... man you must be really angry at Gwen or whatever her name is.. hahaha that is funny..Typical walmart trash... don't let her get to you..

Liz, there have been complaints that are troll posts which don't have the topic of sex in them which have been deleted for being fake. I am surprised that this one is still on. Anyways I always wanted to say this.

Children don't try this at home.

You know shamm, this would make a good porno.:D I wonder if anyone took pictures.

hot story

This story is not true ofcourse rwj19731, I am sure someone would have called the police since Brett is claiming he is preforming a fellatio in front of everyone at the courtsey desk.

first of all a toaster is not that serious and second you were stupid for giving head for a 29.95 refund and for doing so you pretty much ruined a multi million dollar law suit and you may still be able to get the person fired but that was pretty stupid sinking down to that level and thats if the story is true

Shoving a knife in a toaster is not "the most logical thing to do".

I'll leave the rest of the crap for someone else to answer.

Walmart can reprint a receipt they did it for me at the Elk River, MN Walmart. I think that as long as it was not paid with Cash. Don't let them tell you they can't do that since I know they can.

Haha... they have to have a reason to drug test not just because some illiterate hillbilly tells them people are using drugs

Indeed

…DAMN YOU AUTOCORRECT

I think that's a tad bit too racist there? What the he'll happened to google translate?

I also think that is insane. I have bought numerous things at Walmart, and NEVER had a problem returning them. In fact, I just returned at $185.00 Infinity vacuum which was a piece of junk, and which was purchased in May, 2008 and today is 10/23/09, (I still had the receipt) and the manager was gracious enough to hear my story, called Euro-Pro who made the vacuum, and made arrangements to ship the vacuum back to them for a store credit. The manager also gave me a store credit on the spot for the vacuum and I am now purchasing the Dyson. Wal-Mart works with customers beyond the call of duty, and if a store clerk said no, you should have taken it up a level and then some. I have never been turned down a return by Wal-Mart EVER. I have even bought stuff at one Wal-Mart and returned it at another, and still there was no problem. Just take it up a step if you get turned down. Don't yell and argue, just explain your situation. Also, you can make a complaint with the Consumer Protection Division in the state you reside -- they have to take it back if you have your receipt and it is not opened and if it is opened and it is broken or defective -- there are consumer laws and they have to take it back. You just can't return a shirt that you wore for 6 months and tell the clerk you don't like it anymore. Either the clerk didn't know his job or you didn't have a receipt and wanted a cash refund, but something isn't adding up here. Wal-Mart is great about returns! Did you talk to a manager or talk to a new clerk on the job for 2 days?

That's insane and I don't believe your Wal-Mart is correct about that. It doesn't say on Wal-Mart's website anything about a special return policy for Dyson products. Maybe try a different Wal-Mart where someone knows what they're talking about.

This is something that you ### to your husband about (probably where you get all of that money from), and not something worth posting on a consumer review site. Nobody cares that a Wal Mart employee didn't thank you for getting out of her way so that she could do her job.

I am also an employee at Wal-Mart and sometimes we have bad days also just like people who don't work at Wal-Mart...and I bet they have already seen you in that same store since then so don't complain and say you are going to shop somewhere else. Do you even have a job or are you the type that live off of the government, from our paychecks and complain about it?

To answeringyourquestions...if someone only has 30 dollars on their debit card and the total came to 30.31, then obviously they need to pay the difference another way. It is an easy transaction, if the cashier knows what they are doing. You can type in .31 cash first and then the total is 30 dollars and they swipe their card for the rest of it. Or, type in 30 and hit debit and it will prompt that they still owe 31 cents. It's not difficult at all. As for the comment that if you have a debit card you won't need to make change, you need to understand the difference between debit and credit. You can't take more money from a debit card than what you have in the account.

This cashier could have had a bad day, did you ever think of that? Maybe she had a death in the family or is going through a divorce. Not everyone can function at 100% every minute of everyday. Plus, how competent do you want someone to be when the company they work for treats them badly. Disgruntled employees make more mistakes. WHY DON'T YOU GET A LIFE, THIS COMPLAINT IS USELESS!

Ok, I'm confused. What did they do, run your debit card twice? And what did they do with the dollar? I'm a cashier at Walmart and would have ran the card for $30, with a balance of .31, which I would have used the dollar to give you .69 change. Its not hard! And yes, calling someone an idiot is not right and immature.

Who do you think you are?! I've been a cashier on and off for four years while I've been in college/high school and I make mistakes. We all make mistakes, even you! If the cashier is anything like me, he/she could sense your attitude and felt intimidated, and therefore was more likely to make a mistake. The manager fixed it, you got your money back, so stop complaining. People like you who think you're superior because you've never had to stand behind a counter make me sick.

WHY DID YOU NEED TO CHANGE A DOLLAR? IF YOU HAVE A DEBIT CARD YOU SHOULDNT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT... YOURE THE IDIOT COMPLAINING OVER A WHOLE BUNCH OF NOTHING

We had an encounter with an employee in the Chickasha WalMart that cost us time & money, so I registered a complaint on the WalMart website. I was called by the manager of the Chickasha WalMart, who was completely unhelpful. She only made excuses for the employee, who is still doing the same poor job to this day. If you think there is a valid complaint I recommend making it to the national headquarters. You may not be satisfied, but at least you tried.

Was a customer manager supervisor for years at Walmart - four different locations - they are all the same. I have no respect for the way they treat their employees and they really do get over on their customers. It was a job is all I can say. Did all I could to please the customers and STILL keep my jobs until I could find something better. It is always "Cover Your A "

really-FED-UP are you high or something?

Brenda,

I hate to burst your bubble, but...

$1.00 - $0.31 = $0.69

Really fed up, your comment is ridiculous. I can tell you, as a cashier, that about 40% of the customers that come through my line do NOT know which way to swipe their card, and as many as 60% do not know when. Almost half of my customers don't know to follow the prompts on the screen. If I just stood there and said nothing to them, many would stand there all day. To simply say, "other way" when they swipe their card the wrong way, or "you can go ahead and swipe" if they appear to be waiting does nothing more than assist the process, quicken the closure of the transaction, and allow other customers waiting in line to be served in a timely manner.

I can tell you, as someone who has experienced plenty of customers like yourself, who have no regard for those around them, that when you act in such a way, you do nothing more than disrespect a hard-working, underpaid citizen and make a scene and a hindrance to the shopping experience of other customers. The world does NOT revolve around you.

Secondly, you attack cashiers for following what management tells them to say. Are you suggesting that people with families to support, bills to pay, and other responsibilities to meet should risk their employment by NOT following instructions? If I didn't ask the questions I am required to ask, I would not have a job at the end of my shift.

In the end, I know a comment on a public forum will not change you. Your immaturity is something that has to resolve itself, and chances are, it will do so through karma. You keep acting like you do, and one of these days, someone is going to "go absolutely ballistic on you and you will have deserved it!"

I bought a battery at Walmart last night for my jet ski. On their ad board place above the batteries was ever start maxx 3 year free replacement warranty. I purchased the battery and once I paid the salesperson so here is your warranty papers, it has 1 month free replacement and 6 months prorated.

I said no the ad states 3 year free replacement. She said that ad is for car batteries only. Explained to her nowhere on the battery box or the ad does it say there is a different warranty for a Jet Ski battery. I informed them that this was false advertisement. This was not a cheap battery it was 84.99. So make sure when buying a battery to check to see if their advertisement applies to the battery you are buy. I turned battery back into them and will never buy another one. If possible I will not buy anything from Walmart again.

had 2 of the large Maxx .batters the yellow ones 9 year, put them in tractors, one lasted 1 year and one blew up, as in I can't hear to well in right ear, the other one may have also blew, both looked exactly the same .blew top end on negative end of battery . I buy optimum batters, now you pay more but I have 2 in diesel truck going on 14 year's, of jumping 100 's of things from cats, , cars, semi's, combines, you name it. never have ever failed their about $150 now, . payed, $126 for Maxx and they blow up, just won't get batters from walmart any more.!

My 3 year old Walmart branded EverStart automotive battery failed this last weekend. The battery (Model 47-3) came with a 2 year replacement warranty, and a 72 month pro rated warranty. My battery was purchased in December 2005. I was told that their "system wouldn't allow them to honor the warranty." I asked to speak to the store manager. The store manager was unavailable, but the assistant manager told me the same thing.

I have written a complaint to the company.

Please be aware that Walmart does not honor its extended warranties.

just left wallmart all pissed off. Had a maxx 9year battery that failed 5years into it. ok all seemed fine till they told me they would prorate battery at 40dollars towards another battery, and i would pay difference of 64dollars, but the battery would not have even one day of warranty.So they hold me hostage for the 40 dollars of credit and have me put another 64dollars at a battery that could fail tomorrow. Im done with everstart and wallmart.

Normally I like Walmart, they have a lot of good deals but do yourself a favor, don't buy motorcycle batteries from them. According to what I was told by the automotive department employee who looked up the warranty on his computer, these batteries don't even come with a 90 day warranty (the usual warranty for anything else at WM) - but a 30 day "warranty"

i purchased a lawnmower battery and 3 months later i start my mower and the negative post melted through the battery right under my ###.i took the lawnmower in and had it checked for shorts and they found nothing wrong with the mower so i took the battery to walmart and explained to them what was going on and they told me that they would only refund the battery after three months once three months passed they could not do anything with it. pissed me the hell of i argued and argued and they flat stood there and kept giving me ### about this warranty.i told them it has a 1 year warranty its only three months he pointed behind me and said look 90 days no warranty.of course this 90 day warranty ### was printed smaller then the 1 or more year warrantys so you would not think to read it i say its a bunch of legal trickery myself and walmart can go to hell for all i care.

No, dude. It ain't a "Jetski" - it's a Powerstar, equivalent to Yuasa YTX12-BS (BS like "Bulls**t") but much better. Still showing full capacity after more than 1/2 year. Walmart won't even stand behind their product after 30 days, that tells me everything

Dude you bought a jetski aka a money pit. And everyone with a brain knows that those advertisements are only for car batteries. Also, I've seen those signs, read the fine print and maybe you won't feel so mad because it clearly says automotive batteries only.

Their MAXX motorcycle batteries used to come with a 2 year warranty only a few years ago. Suddenly they changed the warranty to 30 days for the same product. they won't tell you or show any warranty information at all on the box or the shelf. Only if you specifically ask they will look it up in the computer and tell you. I ordered a battery with a 2 year warranty through Amazon.com for about $ 20 less and received it within a few days. It's an excellent battery with excellent consumer ratings, hopefully more riders make the switch and teach Walmart a lesson.

Brought a battery from Walmart for my 94 HD Roadking. It is an Ever Start battery that lost a cell 35 days latter. Went back to Walmart and was told the warranty was up. Real piss off at Walmart. On my reciept doesn't say anything about a warranty or 30 days.This battery should last at least 1 season. Walmart is selling bunk batteries for big money and not pro rating them. My answer to buying a battery from Walmart is DON'T BUY A BATTERY form Walmart

Am trying to contact a manager at the Plano, IL store after I was given his number from a representative at your website. He is avoiding me and the longer he does, the more I realize that if you have a problem with walmart...too bad. Their advertisement for a price match from another store for a product bought at a walmart store is just that..ADVERTISEMENT.

Will never shop at the Pearl City, Hawaii Wal-Mart again! Amanda, the Portrait Center cashier is very rude, defensive, and insincere snot.

"So you wanted the manager and the employee to wipe your ###. I have seen porno films start like this."

Which ones, would those be because none of the ones that I saw started off like this.

" a gift card for $50 and money on a giftcard."

You know working at walmart and seeing customers get gift cards for ridiculous things(not as ridiculous as this) I would not be surprised if you actually got a gift card because the manager refused to wipe your "tooch"

It is a joke Peter. This person is making fun of a self centred nurse that thinks the world owes her.

Are you for real? Did you know that even executives and managers from the headquarters clean up thier own desk and throw away their own rubish? I am also sure that they wipe thier own ### after dunning eventhough they make millions a year.

THEY ARE NOTHING BUT LIEING CROOKS...I USED AN ATM AND REQUESTED $160...THE MACHINE GAVE $60 AND SHUT DOWN...IT GAVE ME A RECEIPT THAT STATED I ONLY GOT $60 OF THE $160...1 WEEK LATER STILL WAITING ON WALMART TO RELEASE THE FUNDS FROM A GOVERNMENT CHECK...I AM BY NO MEANS BAD MOUTHING FOREIGN NEIGHBORS...BUT THOSE OVERSEAS PEOPLE THEY USE ARE TRAINED TO LIE AND YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND THEM...I HAVE BEEN TOLD SO MANY DIFFERENT STORIES...FOR PRE PAID VISA GO TO MIO...
