Last night while purchasing supplies, I encountered an issue with STORE Number 12880, address: 21350 Hwy 603, Kiln, MS phone number: [protected]. The cashier and custodian were talking about the previous customers whom they had waited on while at the same time handling my groceries. As far as I'm concerned that was very unprofessional and discriminatory...

My husband was banned for allegedly stealing something, so when I go to the family dollar a couple days later the manager tells me I'm not allowed in the store. I asked her what did I do and she said your husband stole something so my boss said your not to come in the store anymore unless you just need cigarettes, but your not allowed in the store. This ha...

I am utilizing this platform to file a formal complaint regarding the horrible service I received at store #09093. On 05/24/2023, at approximately 3:40 p.m., I was at the store making a small purchase of a loaf of bread, a soda, and 2 cigars. When I left the store I realized that I had been given the wrong cigars. Upon my return to the store, the...

Family Dollar Casher / prices / nasty employees

I stay in b"ham AL so am always in the store in Easley, Midfield, Bessemer you have one Bessemer super why
Not none of these stores I have not had misunderstanding when you go in the prices in the back is different from the prices when you pay for them
The one in 5 point west shopping center never can load your cash app card, they always say its down
When you say something is wrong with the prices or not understanding how you spent that much to say all of them[employees] like they have been train to say it
Everything high
The employee get smart with you a treat people bad, I get tired of running around to different family dollars just to get items because they price is different in each store
But the sad part is not nothing that going to be done about this, I feel like when you go to the white neighborhood is different from when you're in the black areas
We are not [censored] an all treat us as if we are not nothing and it's sad that we have to go through this because half your money come from us black people I need to start an f family dollars on Facebook to hear people bad encounter they have in this store
I have one more time to be cheated out of my money or hear them curse out older people because they don't want to be at work and I will start that because it needs to be done

Desired outcome: GET SOME REAL MANGERS IN THE STORE THE EMPLOYEES NEED TO GO TO BETTER TRAINING PERIODGET SOME BIG PEOPLE IN THESE STORES TO MAKE SOME KIND OF CHANGE I

Every time I go to the store near my home it’s very cluttered and there are boxes and pallets of product that needs to be put away that is blocking all of the shelves. I can’t get my cart through most places due to this so I have to leave it unattended to go get the items I need. The prices marked are never what they charge. The manager is rude and...

Family Dollar Employee deliberately overcharged me

Today, a Family Dollar Cashier deliberately overcharged me for an item that was ringing up $1…. I am a regular Customer at this store and often buy the majority of the sale and clearance items. This employee (TEE) knows this from seeing me on the regular. I purchased 15 of this particular $1 items on yesterday. I went back to this morning to purchase 5 more. First, she (TEE) lies to my face and tells me that the item was NOT $1. Scans it and said “it’s not on sale” so I said “it was just marked down yesterday”. I knew she was LYING so I said I would buy the item anyway. She rings it up (2) of them and say “oh that one is $1” so then she tells me that the other (3) are different sizes so they are not $1. But once again she was LYING! I said I would buy those as well anyway. She scans (1) and say “hold on” it was obvious that she went into the system and overrides it making that (1) particular item $5 instead of $1…

When I got out of the store, on the receipt you can see that each item has the same exact sku number so there is “NO WAY” that 2 out of 3 was $1 and the last one was $5! She DELIBERATELY OVERCHARGED ME!

I went back in the store and asked to speak to the manager. She tells me “she’s not in today”

So I went to another local Family Dollar and asked that Manager if that was possible and she told me “NO”! The Manager at another store refunded me the $5 and let me repurchase the item at the price I knew that it was $1!

I don’t even know this Employee personally. Just know her face from coming in the store regular just as she doesn’t know me personally but know my face from buying lots of clearance items. This is Ridiculous!

She OVERCHARGED me as a CUSTOMER and THAT IS WRONG!

Desired outcome: She should be FIRED for cheating a Customer!!

Today May 11, 2023 at 2.10pm, You have employees ignoring the safety sign not to smoke near the propane tanks. This is very dangerous and should seriously be addressed. Just because they don't want to be in the sun and on their phones, they shouldn't put not only themselves in danger but other as well. I have provided pictures and a picture with the time and date as proof of what I am saying. Please address this, thank you.

Family dollar has no air in the store and makes shopping miserable. I visited the store yesterday and asked why so hot and stated the haven't had air for years. I don't see how any worker could be happy serving customers. The store number is 06156 on 1201 e meyer blvd. This store is located in the inner city serving people of color. Please take care of the community and your workers.

Family Dollar Fraudulent marking of un-picked-up on-line orders as picked up and pocketing the money instead of refunding it

WATCH OUT FOR FAMILY DOLLAR - THEY ARE CROOKS!

I made an on-line order for about $20 or $25 and as it took a while to get sent to the store I bought the items (elsewhere) instead, and then simply abandoned the order, expecting I'd be getting a refund. Family Dollar did not send a refund and they didn't send email to find out whether I was intending to pick up. Instead they simply marked the order as 'picked up' and kept the money. Its hard for me to believe that any business, much less one of this size, would think they could get away with keeping the money people send them for un-received goods. DO NOT TRUST THESE FOLKS and NO NOT ORDER FROM THEM ONLINE UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO SPEND YOUR TIME TRACKING WHAT THEY DO WITH YOUR MONEY.

Desired outcome: I should be getting a refund instead of having to go through hoops trying to find out who I should speak to to get some answers
