Walmart
Reviews and Complaints

Unfortunately this happens in every walmart store as young people are yelled at, grabbed and disciplined in manners that are in- conceivable. and they get away with it as too many people are too afraid to stand up to them, why i am not quite sure as hopefully when other retailers come to Canada this will silence and humble walmart from running wild in Canada.

Beware. Diabetics buying $4 Metformin extended release at Walmart may have an issue with the drug company that supplies Walmart.
If your blood sugars are not coming down or are hard to control, it could be because the generic Metformin pill has too much corn flour content around the drug.
This can make the drug ineffective or digestive incompatible with food intake!
Get your store manager to ask Bentonville to advise what drug company manufactures generic Metformin for Walmart to determine whether it is one or a dozen companies, so this concern can be discovered as fact or not.

Did your child have brain damage before he got in the cart or did he suffer brain damage when his head hit the concrete floor?

That may have been the case in the past, but it seems that they have upped their game. I purchased a set of slipcovers and they never arrived. I contacted walmart.com via chat and the representative said they had been delivered but since I hadn't received them it was possible that was a mistake and they had been lost during shipping. She offered me a my choice of either a full refund or replacement. I opted for the refund simply because I wanted to get the slipcovers asap as the were supposed to have been delivered the previous week.
The representative processed the refund and it was credited to me the next day!

Someone went into my Walmart account on line and ordered some kind of xbox membership.
as soon as I found out about this which was about 7 hours after the purchase I contact Walmart. They refused to refund my money. Please beware Walmart has an unsecure site, do not store payment options.

My experience with wallmart was positive. I ordered something precious from wallmart and fedex left the package at my door in 5 inch snow. Somebody took the package or the delivery guy never left the package. When I found out that my package is missing, I contacted wallmart and they sent me replacement at no cost! I got my replacement package today. I am really glad and I recommend wallmart. My experience says that Wallmart is a very responsible merchant. Do not hesitate to buy anything from Wallmart, you will get your item, one way or another.

I have been to this store for years, I will rethink and go to Target from now on. One of the managers (African American) woman, I saw her jump an employee in front of all the customers on the floor, because she answered a question for a customer. She told her she is NOT allowed to speak to customers. I worked at Walmart and we were told "you better not ignore customers, if they ask for something dont just tell them where it is show them and be polite" This woman talked to that poor girl like she was total dog ###. We then came back and this SAME manager jumped another girl and when the manager walked away she passed our group and said"honky b". The store manager Angela did NOTHING and come to find out this African American manager has been complained about SEVERAL times. This one girl I found out is a bit slow and has a mental disability, I will be going back and urging this worker to file discrimination charges on this woman and Walmart, and I WILL go to court for her and tell them what I saw. This ungrasteful, biggoted, racisted manager is allowed to still have a job, go ask for LINDA in lake jackson walmart shes the one.

Anyone else notice this from the OP:
" I knew that if i took my son to the store with me my quick trip would take longer because I would have to watch him" in the complaint and one day later: "Learn how to read, I am saying I had no idea my son was in the car."

I'm just curious how you went from knowing that if you took your son in you would have to watch him (God forbid a parent does that) to thinking he wasn't even there to begin with. Personally, I wouldn't have went to the front desk, I would have called the cops while standing next to your car.

veganchica, YOU are a horrible parent. If you think leaving a in a locked car is okay, then you deserve to be trolled and harassed by any police officer in the world!

An idiot's born every minute, so other people born at the same time you were born are off the hook. Any number of tragedies can befall a three-year-old left alone in a vehicle. A child can choke to death. A child can work himself into a crying frenzy, vomit, and then aspirate the vomit. You are one of those people who leaves a child in harms' way and then stands in front of the microphones saying, "Please...Please...If you have my son just send him home safely." OMFG!

You have got to be the dumbest person I ever heard. You are stupid for leaving your 3 year old in a car! What if he opened the door? You should have been arrested. Your right, I would like to know that police officers badge number. You should have been arrested and your kid needs to go to an orphanage where someone will watch and care for him! That officer should be fired for not arresting you. What is the world coming to? All these stupid criminals plead a stupid case and want sympathy for their ignorant actions! Yes you are a criminal and you should be arrested.

If anything would have happened to your kid You would be in jail for a long time. I can tell your mammie did not teach you anything either!

BTW, my 'attitude towards the Complaint' should have been "DISAGREE" (that's what I checked - I don't know why it's showing 'Agree'). I kindly and thoughtfully DISAGREE. :-)

Oh, and please excuse the half-dozen or so typo's … I hope you can move past them and get my meaning regardless. Sorry!

Dear VeganChica81: I too am a single parent and have been in the same situation that you described so *many* times I've lost count. My ExH & I divorced fairly soon after I became a parent, but he was never around/available even when we were married (& his lack of physical, emotional or financial support only INcreased as the years have passed) and I can tell you that 'Girl, I KNOW how unbelievably HARD it is to be a TRUE Single Parent (the Ex Spouse/Parent isn't around/doesn't help; no family or grandparents to pitch in, no 'Significant Other' to share the load or at least be another BODY around, much less Responsible Adult). I've been a TRULY Single Mom for over 14 years and although I know a number of other 'Single Parents', who are overcoming obstacles at every turn, I have other friends who are Truly Single Parents like myself and although each group is rarely (if ever) distinguished from one other - even by the members themselves - we couldn't be MORE DIFFERENT, nor can the Single Parents (who have, and *Heavily* utilize, their SUPPORT Systems) relate - AT ALL - to the plight of the Truly SINGLE Parent who doesn't have the Support System that these other Single Parents take for granted. The Support System that never enters the mind of those who have an Ex-Spouse who co-parents, takes visitation (the ONLY time you can "Punch Out" your Parenting Time Card) or actually SPEAKS to you; GRANDPARENTS (nearby/in town) who are the next best thing the child's Actual Parents; extended Family who are the next best thing to grandparents; a Trusted & Reliable Sitter old enough to drive & take on tasks normally done by you or to fill-in when you're 'deathly' ill; or even a 'Significant Other', just to enable an errand to be done or watch the child in the tub so that you can go be sick in the commode like a civilized person who has the Flu (which you caught from the kids after nearly a week with no rest or actual sleep, doing your best 'Florence Nightingale' impersonation) …. and that's just the 'cream of the crop' of the "Single Parent Support System" that separates the 'harried from the keeping-it-together', the 'downtrodden from the overcomers' and those who are 'doing it' as opposed to having it 'done to them'.

I just want to make it CLEAR to VeganChica81 and all who read this that there really are two different classes of single parents (and former socio-economic status has ZERO bearing to which class a single parent will belong) and for those of us thrown into the abyss of Truly Single Parenthood, we are NEVER "Off Duty". We work 24 hours, 7 days a week and most of the time, it feels like more (ha-ha, but true). We are over-worked, over-tired, over-stressed, overwhelmed, over-obligated, over-loaded and always in 'overdrive'. We are under-paid, under-appreciated, under-loved and definitely mis-UNDER-stood! Single Parenthood has become so commonplace in the day and age that no one stops to think anymore, "How is she/he doing it all alone?" "How is she/he taking on all the responsibilities, obligations, tasks and wage earning that was previously being done by TWO people?" I can tell you: if they are overcoming/succeeding/coming through unscathed mentally & physically, they are leaning on others. This can range from one to many; from just another body there - which is a Huge help all on its own, to forming a patchwork system of support in multiple areas, all the way to pulling out the "big guns": partnering with another for income, housing, parenting or all of the above - a replacement spouse or family. If they don't have access to any of this - or are averse to such choices (for various reasons) - then they are like me and VeganChica81 and many others whose plight is, in my opinion, quite deliberately IGNORED by everyone from the mainstream media, the public at large, neighbors, social acquaintances, friends and yes, even their own FAMILY. Truly Single Parents like us do NOT have the LUXURY of choices MOST of the time (or, if we do, none of those choices is very positive or inviting).

Truly Single Parents find themselves in situations like the one VeganChica81 related that happened to her at Walmart. I know. I've been there. I've run into the Gas Station to pay for gas when the pump wouldn't work because I could watch my child, strapped in her car seat the ENTIRE time and doing so would take 3 minutes max, whereas going through the entire process of taking her out, waking her up, having her scream and cry, using ONE hand to dig through my bag to pay AND scariest of all, the whole time feeling (and truly being) Vulnerable to being robbed, car-jacked or worse.

But if you start that, you'll do it again. And again. When you're a Truly Single Parent these situations DO NOT STOP HAPPENING … and then your child gets older, or the weather gets a bit warmer, or you lock your keys in the car because you were up all night with a sick child and you're bleary-eyed … and something happens….something BAD.

There's a reason that leaving a child unattended is against the law. Too many things can go wrong. They WILL go wrong. It's rare they don't and those 'good' outcomes only lull you to sleep so that you'll do it again and the chances for disaster increase to near certainty.

I spent a LONG time on this post to (hopefully) provide some insight and understanding into WHY any mother, this mother (VeganChica81) would leave their child in the car to run into a store "for just a minute". Please, please stop berating her. I know you didn't understand before …. hopefully, now you have more sympathy for her plight and what brought her to that decision.

But as a mother who has lived this HARD and very LONELY life of Truly Single Parenthood (though hardly anyone would know - I always put a good face on it and it has taught me the most important lessons I never could've learned otherwise -- to learn on the Lord as truly my Savior and My Father - a girl needs her Daddy, always, and especially when things get hard), I hope I can pass on to you, VeganChica81 the hard-won lessons I've learned … and this 'just running into the store thing' (that I know so well), will ONLY have a BAD outcome. Look for a different choice. Look hard. It's not an option.

Finally, help another Truly Single Parent out -- giving to them will help YOU more than you could ever imagine.

May the Lord Meet All of Your Needs and may you truly Know Him,

Why are you getting upset with the comments u received and calling us names for judging you for what you did.! Your the one that posted on your parenting skills for every one to see .! So now then, .! Who is the IDIOT.!?

my neighbor's mother-in-law earned $17999 a week ago. she makes money on the laptop and bought a $397800 home. All she did was get lucky and work up the directions written on this website... LazyCash35.com

I can't see where you thought leaving your child unattended in a car while you went in for a few minutes was right...Any number of things could have gone wrong regardless of whether the doors were locked or not, you just dont do that to one of your kids...Sounds like someone needs to take a parenting class cause i will be the first to say that if that had happened where i live you wouldn't have your child or your freedom...

You are an idiot wrapped in a ###, sadly you can't fix stupid!

Cancer patient. Two years. Same meds same WalMart Phamacy in Indialantic FL. End of year. . Made special trip to dr's office for refills under new law. Ativan and Hydrocodone/apap. Brought to drop off window. Said I wanted Ativan filled but would keep Hydrocodone scrip for another time since I didn't need it. Lady told me she would keep it on file or enter it and all I would have to do is call for the hydrocodone pain pill prescription to be filled. So last week I went to the pharmacy while I was in the store to order that prescription dated end of December - refilled. . Girl at desk said no such prescription. And they were 'not allowed' to keep those prescriptions on file. And so basically I was wrong and no such prescription existed. HAH. She called druggist over and he basically repeated the same story. That it didn't happen. They saw in their computer the Ativan prescription, filled on January 2, 2015 and my past two years history of using these drugs regularly (single cell carcinoma patient). I told him I had NO REASON to lie about it. And that that 'girl' did take both of my prescriptions the same day but only entered and filled one. . What she did with the hydrocodone prescription has become pretty obvious after reading some of the stories on this. page. I think someone got 90 hydrocodone pills somehow with my prescription. . I had no dog in this race. I have new prescriptions under the new law already. But ya know? At some point they're going to get caught. I also have been given the 'story' many times that they didn't 'have enough' cough syrup to fill my prescript so I only got half, and never got the other half. Scam City here I'm thinking. I really want to make this public and will probably report it to Headquarters somehow but this is a public forum and I hope it will help, although I don't see any very recent entries. Thanks for the opportunity to say my piece.

I Mark Freed went to Walmart Super Center theis last Monday thee 7the of January 2013. I went theere to get a new wick for my kerosene burner theat I had previously bought theere a little over a year ago. I went in and approached thee isle of kerosene burners and such. I did not see replacement wicks anywheree. I proceeded to look for a clerk. I happened to spot a gentleman. I asked him if theey had replacement wicks for kerosene burners. while walking away from me in anotheer direction thee clerk responded if we have theem theey are in thee isle withe thee kerosene burners and thee man kept walking. I figured as much as he said. I went back to thee kerosene isle and did not see any replacement wicks like before when I was just in thee isle. I looked for anotheer sales clerk and found one in thee paint department near by and asked him if theey had replacement wicks for kerosene burners. He actually looked at me unlike thee otheer clerk and responded theat he did not know if theey had any but a gentleman came in thee day before to get one and he had took him to thee kerosene isle and theat all thee hooks where thee wicks are kept were empty and did not know if theey had got any in. I went to thee kerosene isle again now for thee theird time by myself and did find thee hooks theat thee clerk was talking about and theey were all empty. They did not have one replacement wick. There must of been five to six hooks and theey were all empty. Withe thee busy lives we live, thee gas prices, and economy I was very upset theat I had come all theis way just to get a simple replacement wick and theey were totally out of all replacement wicks. They have plenty of TVs, cameras, video games and all sorts of otheer products but no replacement wicks. In thee winter season not a one. They have a huge storage space in thee back of thee store for back-up storage and non to replenish thee isle when thee replacement wicks are out. This Walmart so called Super-center. As if no one in charge of ordering could do proper inventory and order more product so theat theey never run out. To me theis day theere was notheing super about theis store. Now I am out my time and gas money. Now I still need a replacement wick. This is also not thee first time I have been to theis store looking to buy sometheing I need and theey were out of a item withe no back-up merchandise in thee back eitheer. Once again I am very upset and frustrated. Out my time and money is all I can think off!

Im shure theres a sign somewhere usually the lightpolls that says were not responsible for damage in parking lot.
Almost any place you go is like that its standard

I don't believe it has anything to do with whether or not you're a loyal customer. Most stores, grocery stores at least, post signs at the store entrances and where the carts are collected in the parking lot stating that they aren't responsible for any damage caused by carts. The security chick could tell you the store would pay you a million bucks, but her word means nothing unfortunately.

I keep getting notifications regarding refills. I will call when I need a refill. When I called the #[protected] they had several accounts with my birthdate and phone #? I tried to let the operator know that my first name is Joyce and she could not understand me and hung up? Please know that I will call the pharmacy when I need my refills. Thank you

Tasha must have been abused severely as a child. She is filled with so much hatred.

Update I divorced her because I did not like how her hair looked, and the reason she started crying was because as soon as I got home I told her how ugly she looked. She thought she looked fine until I told her how ugly she looked and to stay away from our children because she will scare them.

Do you have to have any experience to work at a walmart salon? Just wondering because for almost $20 they gave me a female mullet when I asked for a stacked Rihianna look. The woman gave me attitude when I asked her to fix it, and her son was running around the shop getting into stuff.
They have messed up my hair before but I thought I would give them another chance. They ruined my summer. Thanks Smart Styles.

you are a idiot if you are showing this displeasure of her haircut to your wife. She is upset as it is never mind having someone like you making it worse. Besides if it was that upsetting she should be making this complaint not you It was not your hair!

"Bam, her hair was layered into a damn mullet."

with a mullet, she will fit right in with the other white trash Walmart customers. All she needs now is a Nascar tattoo and to begin wearing her PJ's and slippers into the store, and she will be an official Walmart customer!

Federal law says that a merchant has 7 days to return funds or holds on a cancelled order, and the bank has 3 days after to credit your account. That is the law in the U.S.so obviously whythelongface doesn't have a clue as to what he's talking about and isn't in the banking industry. I cannot comment on your credit card company being in another country, but I do know that Walmart has no longer than 7 days.

I am a U.S. citizen with U.S. credit cards, U.S. debit card, and U.S. based PayPal account. All are active and have more than sufficient funds. I am having the same problem with Walmart.com, and I've found quite a few others on the internet complaining of the same problem -- orders being cancelled by Walmart.com, walmart blames the billing info, but the billing info is correct and/or many different payment methods have been attempted. I have now tried to place the same order 6 different times using 6 different payment methods over the course of 3 weeks. I have checked and double checked all of my billing, shipping, and payment info. I have contacted my credit and debit cards and all companies say they have no idea why walmart cancelled the order. In the meantime, the same $388.12 charge is still pending on 5 of the 6 purchase attempts...
