Circle K
Reviews and Complaints

On May 19, 2008 I left a package at the Greyhound Valley Retriever in Newport OR. It left with Insurance to Indianapolis Indiana and arrived as I received two phone calls on this matter that it did arrive. My buyer filed complaint that it was not there. I went to where it was sent from and he called Indianapolis # from above information. He told me that the package was signed for and picked up.

When I called myself June 26, 08 to ask for a copy for my claim against me I was rudely cut off when I asked to talk to the manager. She claimed that the confirmation # did not exist with greyhound. Mr. Picot who did attempt to retrieve his package was told the first time the same story about the # as I had the copy and he only had the number I gave him. The second time he returned he was told the package was returned. It has never arrived. When I called it was back to the number was no good.

On July 2, 08 I called to talk to Tina Archer; Supervisor and again I was spoken to rudely by" Sylvia" as she took my number and hung up again without letting me talk to her...

I am at my ends with and if you cannot help in this matter please direct me where to complain and get my insurance money of 200.00. I will have to swallow the shipping costs but someone has that chair and with no questions asked I would like it returned ASAP.

I am almost certain that someone does know about this missing package there in Indianapolis and does not want to cope to it. I have requested assistance from paypal on this matter and do not plan to drop this till the chair is found.

Went on an awesome hunt with these guys. This lady should have stayed home in the kitchen where she obviously belongs. Perhaps a spa day with the $500.

If she did what you say, bring in the local news, show them your proof and also let the newspapers know. Word will spread, if you cannot prove what you day, then you could be sued by her. Proceed with caution grasshopper !

"Faye" keep up the good work!

Yes I had to quit in 3 days if training here in altamonte fl due to the fact they don’t terrain properly and are rude and unhappy people it’s sad.

My time spent as an Employee with Circle K left me with such a negative view of how people in a setting of retail and service can possibly treat others in such a rude and unprofessional manner. I had the most courteous clientele it was management that needed a crash course in Customer Service 101. I was hired into the managerial position to be trained by existing store manager. She somewhat felt threatened that I would take over her position which was not the case I would have been assigned my own after training. I was never trained in store procedures I had to wait two days to get a simple computer password, comments such as I already have an assistant dirty looks when coming into the store and being shown the POS. There was my manager training, humiliating, I left after a month after discriminating comments no training and a store manager that did not want to train any one else but herself. Ugh. Revamp your management program.

I am an employee of Store #4011 in Fairmont WV . I have been employed now a little over 3 months and On Dec 4 2015. I was starting my 3rd shift an had to walk into a store that was very much in disarray and unacceptable to start my shift because of health and various equipment hazards upon starting my shift my fellow employees did not make any concessions to the store and left me without notifying me of the potential dangers that existed.. I proceeded to call the general manager to state the condition of the store and say that I will not start my shift because of the problems that were present. I was told to remove myslelf from the store. I have given the company my best since arriving as an employee for Circle K. I am a dedicated worker and a very good customer service associate. I feel was treated unfair by the management and fellow employees and, I know that the Circle K Organization would feel that this is not what you want to be known as a employer/employee that neglects the needs and health of other staff.. Please look into this situation because this may cause serious injury to someone in the future. I have been terminated for trying to inform the proper chain-of -command.. I feel that the corporate offices need to look deep into this store #4011 because there are a lot of things that needs to be address immediately before the store gets an bad rep, for treating staff and customers improperly. I truly hope that this is address sooner than later, Its is a problem that could possibly hurt the Circle K Brand...
Thank You

just want to point out, having worked for circle k myself in the Denver area, he/she is not joking about the treatment of employees. management doesn't give a damn if you have a fever, are throwing up, just busted your leg, what have you, if you are employed by them, they expect you to be at work as long as you're still breathing. call ins are rejected, if you don't go in, you're fired on the spot the next day you can make it. not only that, but the over night crew more often than not gets the shaft, being expected to do 12 hours worth of work, in 8, and then being berated for it if your tasks aren't complete. also of note, if someone else is running your drawer, and it comes up short, you'll be held liable, as it's your drawer (i got around this with the fact that my drawer was only ever off when someone else was using it, but i've seen people fired for two bucks being lost as a result of too many people on a drawer, and only the person who's name was on the drawer was fired.)

My name is James I am a current circle k employee waiting to get fired... So this is what happened I make my 90 days have an outstanding review manger jumps ship. New manger comes in. Store comes up 11k short in product. Almost ameditly roomers spread that there plameing me for it.. So I look at schedule and my hours cut in half.. So I look at next weeks schedule and can't find it..? I latter that day found it hidden.. It shows that I'm off for almost 8 days..? So I think maybe it's just incomplete and go about my work. 2 days latter they kept me away from my assigned register most of the day with lots of dutys we're register was not visible. When was viable some one else was ringing on it. They finally have me close register at end of shift and it's 186$ dollars short. So I asume it's a mistake and not even thought 2 licks about it. 3 days latter they pull me into office and suspend me for 5 days..? The issue is the schedule never changed. I was scheduled for 8 days off befor the inca dent even happened... This leads me to believe Managment was in on it and ploted the whole thing. How could they know I was suspended befor anything even happened. Plus since I've been there I am lucky to have 1 day off a week. In addition they always have me on register because I'm fast, good at it, and don't get overwhelmed easily. So much so I never get to leve register to do chores. Ever now and then I'll get 2 min 2 power down a cig on a 8 to 10 hour shift with never a lunch break ever ever. And if you ask for one your told no then hazed and made fun of. There is just to many anomaly that lead me to believe new manger does not like me and is using me as an excape goat.

I spent 15 years In the Circle K system I went from a Sales clerk to a field rep. I did see some of what your talking about then. But when I got to a assistant and then store manager I was trained on harassment. I NEVER treated a co worker like that. If as a Assistant or Store manager or Field rep had heard of something like this and had proof It had happened HR would have not been called until after that Employee had been discharged. You have been harassed (If the statement above should be true) The Field rep should be called at once. No one can tell you you can't use the restroom. You should take the time off when needed. The only thing they can do Is ask for a doctors note. Yes your baby Is very important. I don't think Circle K would condone this at all.

Get a lawyer and sue them, individually as people and Circle K as a company. You will win.

YOUR BABY is what is important. Do not risk the health of your baby. Do nothing that will risk your pregnancy. You need to get a doctor... not to Circle K. Get a note written on a prescription pad, stamped and signed by the doctor... and take it with you when you go back to work at Circle K. And if they give you any trouble, be sure to take it with you when you go to your attorney's office.

This circle k is a not crazy but the manager were so crazy that they might had to taken to mental hospital n treat them with electric shock

@InnocuousPanda, I agree with all you said! Especially manager hours, I was off one half day one time, and i still had over 40 hours, but they docked my pay for the day i was off. It is amazing how much they expect to get out of you, yet if you get sick or anything else happens and sales start going down, they will not hesitate getting rid of you once they have gotten all they can out of you.
P.S. by the way, the EX-DM that got me terminated has been demoted to store manager again, LMAO, best news i have heard since i was termed, LOL

Circle K is an absolutely wretched company. It does nothing to investigate claims and allows shady stuff to go on all the time if the numbers are "good enough." One Market Manager has no idea how to do her job - essentially she sets unrealistic goals and gives no feedback on how to meet them. She gossips about people and tells managers assumptions she has made about their employees (assumptions that are not only irrelevant to the job but often completely erroneous). She will immediately accuse you of theft regardless of if there is any proof at all. She doesn't do any of the controls that are needed to make sure things are above board. There is blatantly unfair treatment that goes on and people become backstabbers just to cover their ###. She won't even do the basics of her job, something as simple as forwarding an e-mail so schematics can be correct unless called on it by a different division. She complains about stuff she has no idea about while the store has empty pegs for 4 different products because she ignored the 3 emails from the store asking her to please, please contact the product manager about the product being in a schematic but claiming to be delisted.

In addition is the fact that they show a okay hourly rate on the manager pay because they base it on 40 hours. However, managers are expected to work 53 hours and that is how they determine your actual wage. Take the MIT pay, multiply it by 53, and then give a 1-5% raise (but then divide by 40 so looks nice). So all these new managers are making almost the exact same hourly rate as they were when an MIT but with no OT now given. And of course if you have to cover shifts or work late your work week could become 70+ hours with no extra compensation but god forbid you fall below the 53.

I have talked to tons of former and current employees in various aspects of the company (SA, Manager, CSR, technicians) and I have literally only heard *one* person say anything positive about this company. There is zero oversight. One former manager use to be horrible and constantly tweaking his numbers and the MM was told repeatedly but she ignored it. Then he leaves the company and it is found his store is missing at least 10K in product. People have complained about the MM to higher ups and they do nothing because her husband was higher up in the company and protected her. She promotes an MIT to Manager who can't do 80% of his job because he doesn't know how and is incapable of learning. Instead she ignores it and tells other managers to "help him" and expect them to essentially carry a second store.

Yeah this is normal. It’s for safety reasons also if a bunch people use large bills you run out of change fast. It normal IS company policy. So even if they wanted to accept it they could get in trouble for doing so. Plus, the attendants make hardly any money and you should keep that in mind when you lodge these kinds of complaints against them. They are not getting paid enough to have to put up with petty grievances. All you have to do is keep in mind that almost NO gas station in the US will accept large bills, so just deposit it first or break it at a grocery store…for everyone’s sake!

No convenience store operator would in their right mind break a 50.00 or 100.00 bill (unless they only needed to give 20.00 or less back). I was a clerk, assistant store manager store manager and a zone manager never did i ever allow my team to break a large bill. This Is for 2 reasons 1. So they don't get robbed The second reason is counterfeit 50.00 and 100.00 bills. Even If It meant losing the customer. Store safety Is number one. All stores at the time had a atm machine in them . As soon as the neighborhood finds out you have that kind of cash on hand you can count on increasing your odds in getting robbed by 75%.

Cheese with your whine?! We are not banks! MOST gas stations are not allowed to take 100 dollar bills due to safety reasons..and especially when you come in only wanting to spend 2 dollars! Just go get change pay for your gas and move the hell on!

Store 5677 at 83rd and glendal . Rude never enough cashiers . Dont have reciept paper in the machines and instead they give us a different pump number reciept. WTF. Store is dirty. They have long lines and then when you dont know they have a line, they are so rude! I wont do business there EVER again and I will personal tell my friends not to go there.

"I WAS JUST ROBBED BY A CASHIER" i paid five dollars of gas and waited for the pump to turn on i waited for over about a half hour and no gas. I went in the store to talk to the cashier an i told him whats going on. He stated " I already pumped the gas an laughed at me and told me to get the f*** out of the store". I asked to have a customer service number so i can speak with someone about thgis ridiculous situation. He stated " He cant give it to me and said to come back in the morning. He never gave me my money back and nothing was done about the situation. This is the type of people they hire an have working at there store, i dont need to be wasting my hard earned money just to get robbed by a cashier suppose to be doing his job...

I've worked as a clerk, or "cashier" for three years now; and although that may not be a lot of experience in the business-it's enough to know company policy. And it is one hundred percent fact that the second and third shift are absolutely-not allowed to break any bills larger than a fifty. In another note, I've also heard complaints about employees getting money out of the safe to put in their register; but yet are unwilling to do the same process to break the customers bill. Well wake up, the safe is their for the employees register and the employees register only; so when they are running low on change to give customers through out their shift. It is not their so they can get into it, just to give you change for a one hundred dollar bill.

Yeah depending on how late it was, Circle K employees are only supposed to keep a certain amount of money in the drawer, I assume your probably going in during their 2nd or 3rd shift, both are not allowed to keep the amount of cash you would need as change in their drawers at any given point.

how would you feel if you were only supposed to keep 75 dollars in your drawer at a time and had a timed safe. you would only be able to vend every 4 minutes, and then, you were only able to vend 20 at a time. that takes nearly 20 minutes.imagine that poor cashier with a line around the store all because you were too lazy to stop at a bank. that's what they are for.

LOL, this is either a joke, or one of the worlds most stupids. Gees, get a life. And if you want to make it interesting, tell your husband what happened, and take him down to the Circle K and point the guy out to him.
Hope you enjoyed the fun.

Blaming someone else for your own immorality is stupid. At least own up to what you did... which was cheat on your husband. It's no ones fault but your own!

What she said

My favorite (NOT) is the woman who hands you a crumpled bill soaked in her boob sweat...I'm like, ewww, carry a purse or put it in your pocket, not your bra!

and hmmm, maybe she throws your change at you because you threw it to her. my personal favorite is the wadded up money from some [censored] who wants it put on a gas pump that doesn't tell you which one and is out the door before you even ask.

i also have to deal with alot of ### that i shouldn't when i'm at work. for instance, just today, i had a guy come in and throw a 50 at me screaming because i couldn't see his license plate (i couldn't see his plate because i was cleaning up piss and ### in the mens bathroom because someone probably thought it was funny), i had to deal with rude and perverted customers comments, i had to deal with being treated like a bank(standing by the safe for 10 minutes waiting for the timer because someones daddy gave them a 100 and they didn't know how to walk in to a bank), and by the way, i am a manager and we too get sick of this. i had a guy the other day buy a lottery ticket. he said he forgot it on the counter and expected me to replace it. people, dont you realize that these are counted like money!? come on. i'm so sick of this.

Maybe YOU need to get a life..calling district managers/corp offices to whine..and regardless if you go thru those doors or not they are STILL running a business. I suggest that you go to a grocery store and U SCAN! Crybaby 😢

yeah, maybe the pentagon? i also have to deal with alot of ### that i shouldn't when i'm at work. for instance, just today, i had a guy come in and throw a 50 at me screaming because i couldn't see his license plate (i couldn't see his plate because i was cleaning up piss and ### in the mens bathroom because someone probably thought it was funny), i had to deal with rude and perverted customers comments, i had to deal with being treated like a bank(standing by the safe for 10 minutes waiting for the timer because someones daddy gave them a 100 and they didn't know how to walk in to a bank), and by the way, i am a manager and we too get sick of this. i had a guy the other day buy a lottery ticket. he said he forgot it on the counter and expected me to replace it. people, dont you realize that these are counted like money!? come on. i'm so sick of this.

DID YOU CALL THE WHITE HOUSE ?

😥 Well take ur ### to another store and get your "chips" . Had to be a reason why you were banned..you probably was a complete jerk! Quit whining and go somewhere else! Would you like cheese with your whine? I bet you do..lol

ahh its all fun and folly :)

Stealth Pilot...I LOVE YOU! You are awesome. If I wasnt already married to the Hulk I would totally take you on. Your comments came right from my heart. Looks like I dont have to post anything here. You nailed the dumb ### right in the head!

Corporate needs to look into these complaints. Customers should be treated fairly and kindly. Great employees should be rewarded for great work. And bad employees no matter their title should be handled properly. Store managers should be examples for how their staff should be and act.

We're a customer of "all" Circle K's. But, today we went to the Circle K, in Snowflake Az, 110 S Main St and was very disappointed the Caffeine Free Diet Coke was discontinued. In place of it, was Coke Zero, yuk! We visit this store for a soda, at least 2 times daily. Getting Diet Coke, Caffeine Free Diet Coke and other items. Now, we will take our services down the street to Maverick. It's really sad, when your company can't make the customers happy!

I'm a single mom of two perfect little girls. I receive no help from their fathers nor have I. I work two jobs and I'm in school. So yes I have link I would do anything to make sure my girls are fed and happy I dare someone to say I'm lazy. I work an housekeeping job from 6am to 3 pm than clean houses from 3 to 5pm than night school 6 to 10 pm

@ mrsvladredd you do relies that what you said was ignorant and without any research whats so ever right? It is in no way a violation to purchase food from circle k and then heat it in the microwave, and it is where circle k makes allot of its money. There are alot of people on food stamps due to the fact there jobs don't pay nearly enough, its next to impossible to find better or new work, and there bills are too high. They have jobs and yet still cant make enough to feed there families. its hard having a college education and mcdonallds not even wanting you as an employee. So shut your god damn ignorant ###ing mouth, and use your god damn brain.

@ mrsvladredd...YES! Read them for filth honey!' YEEESS!

CTFU! YES! Got em girl!

get a job

hahaha apparently not at the one she went to. Funny story. My new phone somehow mysteriously, while it was at the bottom of my purse, brought this website to my attention. And I am ever so very thankful it did. See I had this extremely unhealthy tension for stupid people. I mean, to me there is no excuse for ignorance. BUT WOW This website has somewhat enlightened me. I now find humor in every dum-dum moment you people put on here. This website is funnier than a Terry Fator show.

oh and to the asst manager...keep breaking ebt regulations and your circle k can be fined 10, 000 per offense and the whole company can loose their license and permit to accept food stamps...which actually might be a pretty cool thing... sure would cut down the lines at the register...keep on trucking dumb-###!

Are you the same person that [censor]ed about KFC not taking food stamps? HELLOOO if you are ignorant enough to get food stamps, I would hope you are smart enough to know how to use them! Companies like Circle K hold licenses to accept food stamps. They are held under rules and regulations on what is and is not acceptable. You can buy prepared PACKAGED (COLD) food. You cannot heat the item up inside the store... OMG You are so hilarious! OK Now lets switch companies, just for kicks and giggles. I dare you to go to McDonald's and order a frozen big mac...use your food stamp card and ask them to heat it up...Duh! It wont work there and it wont work at circle k. Better yet go to the piggly wiggly and buy a ### load of food pay with your food stamp card and ask them to cook it for you lmao! 20 bucks says your black!- yes i went there!

I am an assistant manager of a Circle K and I have never heard of anyone in my store doing this to a customer... who cares how you are paying for the product, it's a product sold and the microwave is provided for that reason. Not all manager's are bad manager's... trust me I have had both good and bad, usually the bad ones don't last long. I am sorry you had to deal with that hun, I would never allowed that type of poor customer service to have happened in my store! The thing that sucks is we (the employees) all have bosses that are on our butts about everything. we have guidelines we have to follow (carding for all restricted sales and denying sales, etc.) listening to complaints about prices, being hit on by all kinds of people, yes we are open 24/7, not given lunch breaks, so we eat when there are no customers at the counter, we smoke or take breaks when we can and that's not none to often, and we have to deal with all types of customers... It takes one hell of a person to work in customer service and even the good ones have bad days!

on 4/ 17/2013 my girl friend bought me a small container of lawsons chip dip. this is enought for me in one sitting.on 4/20/2013when I opened it there was mold. It was dated12/20/2012. girlfriend took it back. employee couldn't do any thing without manager. It's in there thash can now.. This is mahoning and bellevista..

You should have kept it to buy HOOKED ON PHONiCS!

And why didn't you jus keep it? I mean for all that whining you should have just kept it..you should have kept it put it in your piggy bank and when you have enough buy HOOKED ON PHONICS.

you have owed me money for almost 20 years now and i am still tring to get it

ruth noble... they have all my over time pay over 6.000 from a few years ago and i am still trying to get it

Hey brain surgeon... Did you even read the original post? Some [censored]bag is complaining about how they were treated after finding money on the ground.

This has nothing to do with your daughter and some manager having a relationship.

Get real...

These employees don't make much of anything. And no a-hole they'r making a complaint about a girl having money snatched for her by an employee. Have you ever heard of money being claimed in the lost and found? I'll tell you what I have FOUND out, that in Memphis- the marketting manager Bobby Coplin is a married man with two kids, that's not enough for him as he touched my daughter innapropriately, she responded with dignity and now her job is LOST. You got something to say about that or are you fine with Marketting Managers harrassing employees and threatening their jobs? Beyond that her store manager agreed she worked 35+ hours her last week before the incident. Yet his boss, the Marketting Manager had modified the hours based on her rejecting his pervertted advances. She LOST over 17 hours of hard work from her paycheck. She LOST her job, and a way to complain about this Marketting Manager is no where to be FOUND. So a-hole why don't you get lost from this website, some expierences really do matter and when you spend days trying to find a way to respond the internet is all I have found to make this story somewhat known. This man is a creep and even if one person reads that then it is better than nothing. I write our local paper, I've called stores to be told they cannot give me a number of anyone but the store manager and the store manager's boss is the damn Marketting Manager. Now I just have the rage of a father, whose little girl was touched and then had to LOSE her job over a pervet who FOUND my daughter to be his for the harrassing.

I freaking love this website!

You are compaining about how you were treated after finding money on the ground. Oh my god, I will never go to a circle K again based on your experience!

Haha...You people think this website actually does something? I love the internet!

I worked at circle k. And kept getting sent home. Why I was told there way complaints about me from corporate as well as customers. I worked that day the assistant manager sent me home 1 hr I was suppose to get off work. For one I take a vitimain after eating so there is is my drug.as far as taking anything else no! I stand at register for 6 hrs. Would u not get tired and just need to walk awY from it? Maybe that's why I was tired. The assistant manager has let her postipn go to her head.she seem I had a customer in front of me buying cigarettes and beer. She ask me if I carded him. Yes I did he was 30. After that I ask him if he can hold on a min incase she deaided to show her butt again. That's when she accused me of being under the influence of drugs. Clocked me out sent me home. I asked them to drug test me to prove it.nope. Circle k in Foley is the place u don't want to work at
now I'm having trouble getting my money off this card because giving wrong card. Any ideas what to do can I take legal action

Fake winning gratulations which claim to be addressed from Hyundai Motor UK Ltd...

Please check!

There is a Mail which sent in the name of Hyundai Motor UK Ltd and requests personal information in order to hand out a winning of 850 000 pounds which are supposed to stem from Hyundai Motor UK Ltd?

Hope Hyundai Motor UK Ltd are sure that they want to give that much money away for nothing.

Please, Hyundai Motor UK Ltd, have a look at this!

I agree^^ Circle K is so twisted here in Louisiana. Not to say This District Mangaer has all of here relatives working under her & they get away with murder & the none- related get worked like dogs for little pay.My Bf is going throught the same thing & he's been missing most of his dr. app for that place and it's sad. Now they really need to look into it, because last time I checked working off the clock is illegal & needs to be dealt with. Can't go over her head to her boss. Why? They are good friends & he'll just tell her to make it go away. That's just a taste of what they are doing. Baton Rouge, Louisiana Circle K is very corrupt. Store-managers setting up robbers & still working for them...I would like to see them in jail.

I agree completely, in Memphis the Marketting Manager harrasses employees and will take a female into the restroom. Bobby Coplin cheats on his wife with employees by threatening to fire them. Employees of Circle K may have a hard time finding a lawyer, as the income from such a job is mininum. I will spread the word this man is a cheating, harrasser of women and is in a position of power and should be removed and put in prison for his low down ways! Many stores should be shut down because of low down management which this company hires. Even more so Bobby Coplin should be placed in prison or should have to talk to the father of the girls he harrasses. Beyond that, his wife should know his cheating ways and understand she is not confused. He is a cheater and a molester of employees!

i also work at circle k.the store is always busy and they go by hours they aloud to use. in my opinion and my valued customers opinions need more help and if not then its suppose to be the managers responsibilty to help. we get none of that we get work harder or i am not a babysitter do your job. my manager passed away last year and ever since we have lost alot of ppl. the company has got numorous calls on this and all the company will do is give them free gas or pop for a week. we want a team leader. we just feel very unappreciated and we are there because we need a job and love the customers. we cant take our vacations when we want to or take breaks when we need to and it really is a very poor situation for a big company as they are. the employees work their butts off and they just take care of the managers who do nothing. circle k in lawrenceburg indiana

I hear ya. I work at a circle k right now, and I try my best, but it can be pretty hard when it gets busy and people are impatient with you. but i cant complain, just keep smiling and apologizing. its not like many other places are looking to hire a 19 yr old highschool dropout with family issues... well, except for strip clubs, but i still have /some/ dignity left. I say just do your job well and no one can get mad at you. 7.50/hr is better than nothing.

I understand your situation. Many college sstudents have to take tough jobs. Beyond customers not cutting employees a break, in Memphis the marketing manager Bobby Coplin tries to get employees to perform sexual favors. This man is a pervert and should face the consequences. He is married, but clearly has no morality- he is [censor]. I've called local radio stations and will be sending in an article to our local paper. Customers expect things to be instant at Circle K, most of the time the employees are moved store to store- but unfortunately for Memphis employees the marketing manager Bobby Coplin supervises many stores.

I worked at a gas station in college for four years- a busy BP station. I know what it is like to work there and deal with mean customers- but I was nice to people. I tried hard to just get them what they wanted quickly and get them out the door. I expect people working in stores now to treat me with the respect I gave to my customers. I am all for sticking up for the employees- but only when they are representing a good part of the workforce. I'm sure you are a diligent cashier- but you know you've worked with people who are not good with customers. They don't last too long, from what I remember, and it's not hard tell the difference between a good cashier with rude customers and an ignorant, lazy cashier who treats the regulars like crap.
