This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

This is scam contest. They use fast food outlets such as Taco Bell to up sell customers to purchase large drinks at a higher price when they ordered mediums, promising they would get a chance to enter the golargelivelarge.com sweepstakes with a chance to win$91,000 cash.

The website requires you to enter your name and email address and mailing address as a condition of entering the "contest" and also asks for your phone number and cell number, then tries to get you to agree to receive spam emails from the company.

Only after you have provided all the required information are you allowed to enter the "code number" printed on your cup, then you receive a message saying you lose.

Yes, the premier soft drink company in the United States that has millions upon millions of loyal customers uses third party sales agents and internet scam and spam operators to delude, deceive, and defraud their customers into providing personal and private and confidential information, then allows others to use this information to harass those very same customers.

This is what happens when a soft drink company is taken over by a multi billion dollar international criminal conspiracy that answers only to stockholders instead of customers. Not only do they sell you a quarters worth of soft drink for nearly two dollars by deceiving their customers, then then turn around and betray those same customers by selling or using their personal information to barrage them with harassing emails and/or phone calls or text messages in the guise of advertising.

What they are actually doing is kicking their customers in the gonads by requiring them to run the gauntlet they have set up to extract this information from loyal customers and unsuspecting victims.

Time to change soft drink brands. There's plenty of competition out there.

Good morning. This morning at 6:42 am a Pepsi truck cut-thru our street on Moores Mill Rd 30327 between Bolton Rd and Hwy 75. There is a $500 fine for trucks using the street as cut-thru. I kindly request you ask your drivers to obey traffic signs.

I will be posting this on our neighborhood social media as well.

Regards,

Maureen

My husband put Pepsi cans in his cooler and then put ice over the cans and the can exploded all over him and the kitchen.i don't understand why it did that. It's dangerous. And why does the complaint have to be long. I sent a picture and explained what happened. Isn't that enough?

Drop the advertisements that support the NFL. Players and teams that disrespect America, our flag, our national anthem and our military do not deserve our support. I am actively encouraging my friends and family not to buy products that support the NFL.

I am a 12 year US Army Service Member and have been a long time fan of Pepsi but because of what the NFL players are doing (Kneeling) I will stop buying all your products as of today.

To whom it may concern,

I was very disappointed this morning when I opened a brand new box of Aunt Jemima Pancake mix and found that it was full of tiny little bugs. I have not had this problem before and was surprised to see it. Attached is a photo of the small bugs in the mix. There were so many of them.

Thanks

Amanda

Second time that cans are near empty and the tabs are fine. Must be a pin hole. The mess in my refrigerator and floor was ridiculous. I had 5 cans this time out of 12 that were almost empty. Poor quality control. Not a product I will purchase again, twice this happened...

I bought a 15 pack of Mt. Dew and a 15 pack of Pepsi yesterday evening in Clarksville Tennessee. And I've taken out about 4/5 in each pack and they are all extremely flat and no carbonation at all. Taste like I'm drinking pure syrup. I'm very disappointed to have waisted my 13+ dollars
