KFC manager/supervisor or lack of

I'm 66 years old. I visited your Pacific Missouri location and all I can say is shame on KFC. Drugs being done on and in the establishment, really. This is the worse case of management I've ever encountered. Also the manager her name badge said Phala doesn't have any management skills what so ever her employees were so far behind that us customers asked why she's not helping out, the answer we got from her is she doesn't know how to do these jobs. Apparently she doesn't know how to manage/supervise either. Plus she smelled like weed. Really. Wish I could be the supervisor of this location. I could just sit and text like Phala does too. This would be the easiest job for me too. I like KFC but as for me and all 200 family members that live near this location we or our friends won't be returning. Thanks for your time. Hope you do something soon. Customers are the ones suffering. Thanks again for your time and help.

KFC drive thru service

My parents are 55 & 56. Dad is in a wheel chair, mom has a walker. The went up to KFC 3 times. They don't go that often. The last ALL 3 Times the workers said they were out of original recipe. I don't think they were out. I think they were low life loser high school kids that didn't want to work or serve and lied. Please call me at [protected].

It is the location in Dallas. 5900 S Cooper St, Arlington, TX 76017 Please call me and let me know about this. Also feel free to call my parent that received really bad service 3 times at [protected].

KFC sexual harassment, rude manager, and drugs being allowed in the property, and money allowed to be sent out to employees from the safe.

I'm an ex employee of the Pacific Missouri location at 1922 W. Osage. Sept. 17th, 2018 was my last day worked. I was always called to work on my days off. They got rid of John and hired Phala. She doesn't know how to be a supervisor. She has know knowledge of how to do any of the jobs if she needs to fill-in or help if we are swamped with customers. On Saturday before my last day of work Phala grabs my dick and says I'd like to give you a chance to stay and then we can have sex every night upon closing the restaurant for the night. I was taken back by this and said I don't think so. She then proceeded to cry and said she won't know what to do when I leave because your the only one that knows how to run this place. Know one listens to me and since we do drugs on the property they think I'm now there friend. And if it gets to overwhelming I'll just play sick and walk out. She did this Tuesday the day after my last day worked. She call me on my cell and said she played sick because only her and 2 other people were there to work, and she didn't know what or how to help. I've never done any off the jobs before. I'm thinking you've been with KFC for over 10+ years and you can't do anything. I'm like damn must be nice. Since if left she still texts me wanting to know if I'm coming back so she can sit, do drugs and text all of her shift. I'm like I can I become a supervisor at that location. You got rid of John who was doing his damnest with what he had to work with. Machines not working right or at all. He was the best supervisor you had. Other employees text me and say Phala has lost all control. Maybe she's having a relapse of some kind, she mental health issues that she might need to get straighten out. I just think it's in your best interest since she can't handle her current job duties. Thank you for your time.

It's not John, the ex boss was Michael. She's really messed up. I guess that's why Jesse wants me to come back. She's told Jesse that I can't come back because we are going out. That's messed up considering I'm 1000 miles away. So how can we be anything. I think she's lossing reality, living in lala land. She's still doing drugs along with other employees. But I guess you don't seem to care or your not concerned. Hope something gets done before the customers or other employees get hurt. Thank you for your time and listening.

KFC wrong order and quality of food

I've just purchase a meal $30+ at KFC Helensvale Siganto Drive 13th Oct 2018 6.30pm
They got the order wrong, the chips were soggy and uneatable, the bread rolls stale and there was something forgein in the potato & gravy. ( not sure if it was a piece of coating off the chicken ? )
I've never had such a bad meal from KFC.
This is not acceptable when people are spending their hard earned money on a meal that was totally uneatable.
I tried to phone the store several times but it just rang out.

KFC store condition - dirty

First time visiting store E003003 at universal City, tx. I walked into the store and it smelled bad. The floor was really sticky as if hasn't been mopped in days. The floor and windows are really dirty. I saw an employee try to sweep, did a small piece and stopped. He didn't even try to mop. I hope this place turns around because it's right next to a militay base. I will try this place out again within a month, I hope to see it in a better shape.

KFC drive thru

Been to drive-thru at this location 2x in 2 weeks and had my order wrong 100% of the time. $5 thigh/drum Fill Up odered both times; asked for extra crispy thigh &wing with Cole slaw instead of potatoes. Told no problem. First time got thigh & drum- the rest was fine. This time got things and a small PIECE of a wing, original recipe after the girl asked me specifically if I wanted extra crispy & I said yes, extra crispy. Also got mashed potatoes slathered in gravy instead of Cole slaw after being told yes, that's fine to swap for potatoes. Very disappointed...and hungry. >:(

KFC product and service complaint

I went today to the KFC in scottsburg indiana. I had my grandmother with me my uncle and my boyfriend. We ordered the buffet. It was only 11am and yet there was no food in the buffet unless you wanted desert. We sat to wait asked how long it would be before there would be food ready. We were informed about 15 minutes so we set and waited. Then the customers around us said they also were waiting for food. This ended up being a 40 minute wait. 8 people were in line ahead of us and when we did get chicken and biscuits they were under done and bland. The chicken had blood and no flavor. The food at the buffet was old and had flies all around it. We all just walked away. I would like to be reimbursed for paying for four buffets rude employees and under cooked food. Thus is not the first time and I am sure it will not be the last the service and quality of the scottsburg KFC is so horrible we could not eat.

KFC rudeness, sexual harassment, and drugs

I went to your 1922 W. Osage, Pacific Missouri location around September 18 and employees were doing drugs on the property, including the supervisor on duty. They also were all texting on their cells phones. The supervisor is so much into playing grab [censored] with a male employee that she can't control her staff the supervisors name badge said Phala. I was so shocked that they did this in front of customers and children. The staff taking the orders were rude, the used profane language. The one lady her badge said Liz asked me what I [censored]ing like. When I told her there was no need to curse she says who cares we can do whatever we went. Our supervisor doesn't care she's to involved with playing and having sex in the back with the cook Mitch. So she's too busy to help us. I cancelled my order and left as did the other 5 customers behind me. KFC isn't a family friendly place with all this going on. I'm also notifying the Pacific Police, and the better business bureau. This just can't happen in a restaurant. Nor should it get pushed under the rug. Also they are stealing from the restaurant safe. If the employee needs a loan they ask the shift supervisor and she allows this. Just WOW.

KFC bad customer service/manager and employees

I ordered a 20 fill up box. I tried to change one of the sides and was told I had to get it the way it came with no substutions so I ordered another side of Mac and cheese. When I got to the window they did not add the extra side so i was then charged 3.69 instead of the $2 it should have been. When I questioned the price I was told the ticket was already closed out and could not be changed. I asked for the manager Corey and explained the situation and he said that is correct. When I tried to discuss with him all he kept saying was thank you and have a good evening. What kind of customer service is this? I work in customer service and I was always told the customer is always right. This was the worst service. I have gone to other kfc and ordered what I wanted and was given what I wanted. Next time I will drive the longer distance to get better service. Maybe this manager should go through customer service training. I would like a response that you have received this and addressed it. My email is sue.[protected]@icloud.com. Thanks for your time.

KFC food inedible

The KFC close to where we live is a KFC and Taco Bell combined. In the past we have purchased from both. The food has been bad in the past, but tonight was the worst. I asked for a 2 piece, dark meat, original recipe dinner, with mashed potatoes and gravy and corn on the cob. I was told they had no legs and no corn on the cob. This was at 5:00 PM. What chicken establishment has no drumsticks at the beginning of the dinner hours?
Still, I tried to be nice. I then ordered 2 thighs with mashed potatoes and gravy, and green beans. This food turned out to be inedible. The thighs were very under cooked, the mashed potatoes and gravy were dark and tasted like they had been cooked days ago. The green beans were floating in grease and tasted awful. Even the biscuit was doughy. I also ordered 3 chicken tenders that were so over cooked they were impossible to chew.
This place needs someone from the main office to try eating there. My receipt says it is Taco Bell # 019164 located at 6694 Highway 431 Owens Cross Rds. Al. 35763 Have I said yet, that this is the last time I will waste my money at this establishment

KFC chicken

I stopped at the KFC in Beaver WV. Friday Oct 5, went through drive through around 4pm. Ordered the $20 bucket meal. Got home and the Chicken was so dried out, even my dogs wouldn't eat. And my dogs love chicken. Biscuits were hard as a rocks. Needless to say everything went into the trash except the mashed potatoes, gravy and the coleslaw. So I paid $20+tax for mashed potatoes with gravy and coleslaw. Someone left the light on too long. They shouldn't be selling meat that's laid under a light that dries it out to such extreme. Plz correct this because I don't get to eat out that often and I feel it'd unfair to your customers to pay for something they can't eat. And I was so happy to get to go there thinking I was gonna get a great meal just to find it unedible. BTW. The service was fine and the employees very nice. Now I know they were laughing a good one as I was driving home. Jokes on me I guess. Plz correct this situation. Thanks, and I'll be looking forward to you reaching out to me asap.

KFC $5 box

I use to always buy the $5 box until they changed the prices. The commercial always say $5 box and with tax it's like $5.51. For over a year the prices changed to like 6 something close to $7. My 9 year old always laugh at me when I see the commercial because I always point out that is false advertising. Even if it is some type of private ownership whatever how you put. That's cold because I always loved my KFC. From the chicken to the gravy.

KFC my service and meal

I ordered number 10, big box 3 piece meal with a drink and 2 sides, a 4 piece wing meal with 2 sides and a chicken little NO sauce. My ordered came to almost $18.00. Get in the car the man didn't put the lid correctly and it spilled. The chicken were so tiny for that price. And the chicken little had sauce that I'm allergic to. Had to wait for so long and man had an attitude. This is not the first time, it's awful. Someone should watch and you will see a lot of not so nice things going on in this KFC.
