KFC KFC Order Review: Good Sides, Bad Service, and Wrong Order

Me and my spouse decided to order from KFC (kfc.com) for a quick dinner. We ordered one leg/thigh combo X crispy and one breast/wing combo X crispy. The employee at the drive-thru speaker was hard to hear, but we managed to convey that we didn't want the drinks. To our surprise, the employee offered a small side for each combo in lieu of a drink without us even asking for it. We chose green beans and mac and cheese for the sides for both combos and were pleased with the extra sides. The total charge was $14.88.

We were handed our bag and told that honey, butter, and utensils were in the bag. We thanked them and drove home. Unfortunately, it was raining heavily that evening and some of the streets were flooded, so we were relieved to make it home safely. However, when we opened the bag, we found that there were no utensils, honey, or butter, just napkins. In our food boxes, we had our two sides, two biscuits, and two legs and two thighs. My spouse had ordered the breast and wing combo and was quite upset to receive the wrong order. This made me twice as upset for KFC getting such a simple order wrong and upsetting my spouse, who is also under my care as his caregiver.

I tried calling the store to inform them of the mistake, but their phone rang 15-20 times, stopped ringing, but we were still connected. I hung up and called back eight times, but got a busy signal every time. I decided to try the biscuit, but it was dry and hard. By this time, I had lost my appetite and wished I had some animals to feed this food to.

I decided to reach out to KFC through their customer survey. However, when I got to the part where they ask you to be specific about your experience, I was allowed to enter lots of characters only to receive a 1200 character maximum AFTER trying to go to the next page. I kept taking out more and more characters and hitting next for about 10 minutes only to receive a "session has timed out" message, which then forces you to take the survey over.

I cook every day and enjoy cooking. When we go out for food, it's supposed to be a treat, not a trick. I hope KFC can improve their service and ensure that their customers receive the correct order.

I drove 15 minutes to pick up my KFC order that was pre-ordered. I came home and I was missing a seven dollar large coleslaw. I just want to get a refund on it. The store would not give it to me unless I drive another 30 minutes meaning 15 minutes each way that is unacceptable. In addition, the french fries were not complete Don’t know as you will see in the picture

I waited 30 minutes for the order to be filled. After I had waited 10 minutes, a lady said I'd have to wait 13 minutes. After waiting 15 minutes another lady said it will be ready in 4...

The food we received was terrible. I ordered the pot pie combo and my friend ordered the spicy chicken sandwich and fries. Also ordered coleslaw and got mashed potatoes. The pie was so dry and old and the taste was awful. The chicken that was in it was so dry I couldn’t chew it with my denture. All in all the whole meal was as my grandchildren would say...

My meal was terrible today, December 1st. The nuggets were so dry and overcooked that only two very small ones were edibles. The biscuit was not done ; it was like eating dough. The french fries were the only item that was ok. Even the Pepsi was watered down. I don't like confrontation and I was short of time, so I left. This was a drive thru...

I emailed back telling him that I wasn't looking for free food - what I wanted to know was if the issues were going to be addressed.
