I am complaining about a few cashier workers
I am complaining about a few cashier workers that worked today around 8am to 5pm. These female workers were rude, grumpy, snooty towards the customers, one serviced an African American lady and I that I am a white person she closed the cashier and walked away without telling me and the person behind me that she was taking get lunch break. The other cause got upset cause she had to serviced me and the person behind me and tested us as if she was very disgusted with us she was rude, cranky spoke to me in an unprofessional way that makes me not want to return to this store again. I am so upset about the way I was serviced.
I don't understand why a worker could work in Dollar Tree knowing that they have to be around other people, white people and feel they can speak to them any which way, rude and unprofessional. That makes the company look bad, that is how you loose customer, I think they should be fired I go to cause I like the deals but I will not tolerate that kind of service and no one else should either.
employee jessica
I happen to go once or twice a month due to the fact I do not live in that area. My daughter in law lives in the area that I happen to shop when in area. The two times I had previously went to I experienced the same girl Jessica from Griffith Indiana location. I heard her once on phone selling prescription pills. The second time I seen her either drunk or on drugs. I recommend you have her drug tested anonymously. I feel that this should not be tolerated from your company. I hope your company has a no tolerance policy with drugs and alcohol abuse. I feel very on edge seeing her slurring her words and not behaving correctly.
employee bud nutt at haymarket square, 4349 merle hay rd, des moines, ia 50310
The fact that your company has the word family in it's name makes me deeply curious as to why you would allow a convicted child rapist to work for, and represent, the family dollar brand. Perhaps you don't do background checks on your employees and are simply unaware. However, I would like to inform you that bud nutt whom works at haymarket square, 4349 merle hay rd, des moines, ia 50310 has been convicted of analy raping his two year old niece. I sincerely hope that upon learning this you will make the moral decision to remove such a despicable person from your company. If not I will have to make it a personal mission of mine to warn every parent who takes their children into your stores. Thank you for your time.
empty store at #2009
I live less that 10 miles from the store. And ever since probably spring of 2016 this store has gone down hill. There is hardly anything on the shelves causing me and my family to go to other stores further away. The district manager right before thanksgiving had just gotten the store to look like a store. I wad just in there with my mom and once again there was hardly anything on the shelves. I can do to any other Dollar Tree within a 30 mile span and no other store ever has an issue with stocking the shelves. I hate that we have to go elsewhere but we have to go where there is product. I really wish that store #2009 was under better management that could get product on the shelves and keep it there. I asked the cashier and she said the stockroom is so full that you cannot even hardly get in it.
dollar tree cashier experienced...
I DR. Jerome Smith visits in B'ham Alabama for the Holiday, O into a Dollar Store for some shopping, upon my check out I asked the cashier to sperated house hold From food items, at that point AND time she became very upset with my requested, and she began using very bad language at me. At that time I requested to speak with a manager, first I informed the manager about my requested to the cashier, then the very bad language that was used toward me, and how the cashier throw my money all over the floor. The cashier again became outrage at me for explaining to the manager, and began trying to attack me and hurt me in very high raging fitted, at that point and time the manager had to hold the cashier with everything she had within the manager. I have never experienced anything like that in my life, the manager asked me to step outside the store so she could bring me my money due back from the purchase. So sad to say I was just visiting from Cleveland Ohio, in the state of Birmingham, Alabama.
employee and manager
They had an aisle on 12/26/16 advertising christmas candy at a discount, 50 cents an item. I picked out two items, went through checkout to find that they had charged me $1 each, full price. I went through the line a second time, and when I asked for a correction, they said they couldn't do it, and couldn't refund my money, either. Their policy is no cash refunds, but exchanges, but this should not have been the case when they marked prices wrong. I said I would call corporate, and right away the manager said, "want the number?" in a snippy, confrontational voice. I said no, I would get it myself. I got out of the way and had trouble connecting because corporate was closed the day after the holiday. Finally, the cashier waved a dollar bill and gave me a refund. But why couldn't that have been done in the first place? It was their mistake, after all. (By the way, as I was leaving the store, the manager was moving the candy from the 50-cent shelves to the regular dollar shelves). They should make up their mind what is discount candy and what isn't.
the service
1st of all this is the 3rd time I have been followed around the store.I pay for what I want, and on this visit your store manager, and another employee were working the floor as I passed them by and they did not greet me, but they where in conversation as I and her made eye contact...In lu of this being the 3rd time being followed around I`ll take my money else where .And it is always a cashier doing the following everytime ..I wish one of your employees would stop me, and put there hands on me .!12/26/2016 time:15:40 Ps. the assistant manager is always professional and polite...Your store manager lacks what it takes...
store cleanliness
I live in Pine Bluff Arkansas this complaint is about the Dollar Tree on South Olive here in Pine Bluff! This store is a complete disaster! It's an accident waiting to happen. I have never seen anything like this a day in my life. They just throw things on the shelves and expect for the customers to dig through the merchandise. They place boxes out instead of stocking the shelves
The problem I've always seen in that store is some mother out doing her shopping while her car load of brats are running wild. All 3 of the dollar trees in that town are understaffed at any time and can't be responsible for babysitting every idiot's offspring around. Funny how the other 2 however do keep a somewhat more tidy mess.
assistant manager
Told my daughter she had to leave the store because she was not with an adult! She is 17 years old ! My daughter asked if she could buy Christmas supplies for her church youth group and the mean rude cashier told her no and she had to leave the store! So she did she called me upset so I called and told the assistant manager that was mean and heartless to tell her and that I was going to report to corporate and she said go ahead b####! And hung the phone up on me so I called her back and asked how can you talk to me like that she called a b#### again and hung up on me I just want for someone to hear me as a parent this can not be tolerated! She needs to stopped what if other teenagers were refused service please listen to my letter and help me !

And knowing ive went to hr about her and the manager having a relationship and favoritisme now this happens. I told them i thonk its personal and not job related
I am complaining about racial profiling
I was shopping at dollar tree with two of my friends and we noticed the manger was following us every aisle we went to and when we asked why is he following us he responded by saying we are black and look suspicious that made me and my friends very angry and we told that does not give him a reason to follow us around so we proceeded to go checkout the stuff and he followed us until we left the store one of my friends had forget to buy something so he went back in and the manager shoved him out the store I am highly upset that this happened and something serious must be done because this is not right the mangers picture is below serious action must be taken against him because we did nothing wrong

Don't worry, I get followed around at Walmart all the time by some old bag that is there every morning, must be one of those secret shoppers or whatever they are. She's always walking around but never has a cart or carrying anything. She is white and I am white. So it ain't just blacks.
Yes, I go most days in the morning at the same time after I drop my son off. She is always walking around.
Sure is, isn't it! Seen her 2 times since I last posted here.
This happened in 1967. I was working at a 5&10 store. I'm white and was 17 at the time. A black lady came into the store looking for fuses. I showed her where they were, asked if she needed help finding the correct one. She said no, so I went to help another customer. I was reamed out for not hovering over her the whole time she was there because, "they all steal". This lady was about five foot nothing, a hundred years old and walked with a cane. That was the first and last day I worked there. I didn't like being followed around in stores because I was a teenager and I darn sure wasn't going to do that to someone else, no matter their age or race!
This is not proof that the author of this post was actually followed. What you are doing is applying a guilt by association mentality that you seem to hate.
Blah, blah, blah, what the hell are you talking about? All I was doing was telling a story that happened to me. I didn't realize it would elicit a nut case response that wouldn't make any sense!
Actually it made perfect sense, perhaps you have problems with comprehension.
I don’t really care. To me he/she/it was using one encounter in 1967 to add merit to an unrelated story. I don’t really care though because he she it is probably some aging hippie liberal [censored]. 😄
Well, I’ve already burned you on the other thread, and schooled you as to why you are projecting your probable learning disability into the form of lurking as some stalker on complaints board.
You have contributed absolutely nothing positive on this sight, rather you just wine at every complaint that you come across.
You are a teacher correct? I will go further in this thread, and guess that your chosen course is special ed, because of the curiousity of your condition growing up.
It is the fault of you if you can not comprehend this. Blame your genetics and not me.
As far as special ed schooling, you should not be teaching, as you are the only one here that needs some serious schooling .
Not being nosy but if you are in nyc, which school do you work for? I also live in nyc and am concerned about the intelligence of our teachers. I’m afraid you are being hired for something else rather than your credentials. By the way, As far as the hippi I believe nothing he says as his generation was infamous for drugs and violence. The name juju within his username seems to add some credibility to the fact that he is some aging hippi that loves the stimulation of drugs. However that is just a guess. Then again you probably don’t even know what juju means.
There is difference between telling a story and lying. You are obviously lying. Like you lied when you falsely accused another user of working at Dollar Tree because they told the OP that they were in the wrong. Grow up child.
I personally do not believe their story. They falsely accused another user of working at Dollar Tree simply for telling the OP that they were wrong.
My teen, Student Body pres, volunteer tutor, never took anything or hurt anyone in his life was also profiled at a dollar tree and followed around. He is a teen of color. At another dollar tree in WA, he also was denied use of their restroom even though we were paying customers, and others were allowed to use it. 2 experiences with Dollar Tree racism and profiling in WA state, and I'm not only done with their store now, but letting everyone here know about it.
It does not matter what color his skin is. If he is not allowed to use the restroom he is not allowed to use the restroom.
WOW! An incident of one person being followed around . You know what the problem is? You need therapy to conflict automatic thoughts. Did you know I am white, brunette and get followed because I look suspicious. You blindly associate the reciprocation of actions toward people of color with racism. Do you know how many times as a manager at dollar tree I’d uttered the words : “keep an eye on that crackhead, that white-Spanish, whatever he is . That guy right there.” If you look for trouble, you gonna get it. This story is identical with other people who’ve I’d caught stealing boxes of fudge Graham’s up their sleeves and then when I confronted them outside, it was either the race card or that they’ve forgot to pay.
So what, and they also hire drug dealers and pedos who’d raped their 11 year brother and his friend.. sick part those were two managers who continue to get promoted. The drug dealers... well that’s their business, but the pedophile needs to go. Your complaining about behind followed around when there are worse problems with dollar trees like collapsing bleach floor stacks and rotten food in the fridges because the top manager allows certain assistant managers to slack off . Seriously, I will never eat any frozen meal from a dollar tree. Oh... but you know someone who was followed..
lack of carts
Our Woodhaven Michigan store is always extremely busy and there are never enough carts for customers despite the staff trying there hardest to provide them. It is upsetting this time of year when customers are shopping for Christmas. I know that the Store Manager and District Manager have submitted requests for additional carts but have been denied. I have a hard time understanding why a company this large would accept the financial loss of business that is solely the result of not providing for the needs of customers. The employees and local management are clearly trying their hardest but are being shot down by corporate. Just sad!
store manager
I went into the Atmore store with my niece and her kids about mid November. While we were in the store I heard the manager telling a child in the next aisle, "I should do like we did in the old days and give you a broom and make you sweep and clean up." My niece went to see who she (JENNIFER) were talking to, and realized it was her daughter. She approached her daughter, and she said she had tripped over a dog toy already on the floor. Jennifer said she should have picked it up, and yes she should have handed the child a broom. Needless to say my niece and Jennifer had words. Therefore, Jennifer feels it was necessarily to call the police after we left and have the police sent looking for her like she was a criminal for speaking her mind after a racist comment of that nature was made. The police informed us that Jennifer says my niece is not allowed in the store, that she will be trespassing if she is actually shopping in the ATMORE DOLLAR TREE. JENNIFER ALSO INFORMED OTHERS IN THE STORE THAT MY NIECE IS A TERRORIST. PLEASE address this matter.
I know Jennifer and I know she is a total b###h. She once called me the N word to my face and threatened to call the police on me because "You are a stinky N--------...
manager on duty
I was at Dollar Tree in Cross Lanes, WV and needed assistance with an item I was searching for. The cashier directed me towards the manager, Tanya, that was in the back of the store. When I finally found her she was chatting on her cellphone with what sounded like a boyfriend from the way she was talking. I waited patiently, while she clearly saw me standing there in need of assistance, until she hung up and acknowledged me. Once she did, I regretted ever wasting my time in that store. Tanya was rude and impatient with me as I asked questions to the point that I just walked away and left the store. I would not step foot back in there unless this so called "manager" was reprimanded for her unprofessional attitude. I would hope that Dollar Tree Corporation would want a better manager to represent their store. E
tax exempt
I am a tax exempt buyer for a non-profit organization that purchases frequently from Dollar tree. Most of our purchases are at the store and I have a tax exempt card issued thru the state I use have no problems. Online however they will never exempt by taxes! I have sent in my tax exempt info, received an approval dated 2/19/16, yet I continue to be charged tax. When I called to ask why I was charged they said my approval had expired because it only last a year. As you can see, it should be current for a few more months (which I stated to them, and their answer was the same, it's expired, and needs annual renewal). Annual by my knowledge is yearly, yet this one expired in 8 months? They won't refund my taxes even with proof I have been approved and its been less than a year. Also, customer service said they can't help with tax exempt, so I asked for a supervisor, they responded "They don't like to take these call! Please tell me who I should get assistance from...customer service can't help and a supervisor can't/won't either. I was going to start ordering all my supplies online instead of in store, but I CAN NOT DO THIS PAYING TAX! It's frustrating to deal with this every time I order and get no where! No one can or will help and I end of paying tax every time! We are non-profit and can't and will not continue to order if someone can't help settle this situation. Bottom line, Dollar tree is over charging a non-profit organization with taxes. I'm sure that is not the image you want from customers so any help with resolving this would stop any negative reviews that will be posted from our non-profit religious organization.
customer treatment from manager
I was checking out with a wonderful cashier and handed her a 100 dollar bill to pay for my many items that filled my cart. I was excited to decorate for christmas and get some random little household necessities. Another woman walked up, I assume the manager, and began talking to the cashier. The cashier had previously warned me she may or may not be able to break the 100. I was very much ready to change my form of pay if she unable to do so. However, as soon as she accepted my 100, the manager noticed and asked the cashier if she could break it. She said 'I think so'. Then, the manager stumbled on her words a bit and angeily looked at me and said they cannot break it. She repeated herself when I looked confused, heightening her tone in her voice. I politely told her the cashier thought she could. The till was still unopened. In fact during my entire experience, it was never opened. She rudely told me they could not break it and gave me a disgusted look. I was very much struck by her negative mood and decided that in no way I wanted to spend my money at this store with her running it in that way. I apologized to the cashier a few times knowing that she had just wasted her time and I truly felt bad. However, the way the manager dealt with me was uncalled for and quite ridiculous! She never once checked the till and also, never even apologized, spoke nicely, or asked for another form of payment.
returning items 11/21/2016
i purchased several items and had to return one item.
the staff would not give me the original receipt back stating they need to keep it for their records, i informed them that i wouldn't have any proof of purchase for the other items that i purchase the staff was very rude and disrespectful i am an elderly women who was fearful because of the way i was treated, for this reason i will not visit this store again store #5551 39 Belmont ave Brooklyn, New York [protected]
the manager and cashiers nasty attitudes rude comments to black customers.
The manager on chapman hwy Knoxville tn. Shes rude nasty makes racist comments to black customers running around following them not letting them shop like the white people i will never shop there again and have told several friends she acted and looked like a big fool the people she followed had a 100.00 dollar bill she stated to the black lady can you make me some money off your counterfeit machine loudly and laughed and told the cashier you have to watch these people she should be ashamed of her racist butt. I will never shop there again. A white customer fool face.
Dollar tree sucks racist fools want shop there again.
customer treatment by manager
My family and I shop in Dollar Tree often but that may change if something is not settled. This is the fourth time a situation such as this has occurred. My mother and two adult children were shopping at the Weston, WV store and the manager was standing at the head if an aisle waiting to get through with her arms full of merchandise. My mother stepped back and told her that she could go ahead since her arms were full. The manager refused to acknowledge her presence so she politely said it again but this time the manager barked at her to "go on!" Now, not only was this rude but it was uncalled for as well. This manager, Anita Droppleman, is a relative of my ex-husband and I believe she treats my family and I like this based on the fact that we are now divorced. I feel that she is very unprofessional and other patrons also made comments to us that a manager should behave that way to a customer. This is the culmination of several trips there with her acting inappropriately and I would like something done so we can continue to shop there and be treated like any other customers. Thank you.
unethical behavior
I have a staff complaint about W. Broadway store in Columbia Missouri. One of the staff started yelling at me for no reason and accused me of shop lifting without even asking to see what was in my pocket. I am a lady of 46. I addressed him on how he yelled at me and took no responsibility for the fact that he was wrong. I went to the manager and told her what happened and asked if she would have the district manager contact me either by phone or email and I have heard nothing. It has been two weeks. I would love either an email or a phone call from someone to discuss this. Another staff member is also very rude. I asked her if she knew how to get in touch with the district manager. She said "I don't know" and laughed about it. I would like to go into more detail. Please call or email me. My email address is lori.[protected]@gmail.com and my phone number is [protected].
