Speedway customer service

In Brooklyn, NY around 12pm I went to the Speedway on 18th and Coney Island avenue. The woman at the register was stocking items while I waited at the window patiently for almost 5 minutes. I gave her $10 and said regular gas then proceeded to pump gas into my car. Immediately she started yelling and waving to me when I started pumping the gas. I didn't have my glasses with me at the moment so I thought she was talking to another customer. When she finally got my attention she asked how much I had put in so I held up my fingers to indicate $10. She then started screaming again and I went to the window. She said she had accidentally pressed $15 for the gas pump and it was then I realized the gas pump said $11.52 ( most people don't look at the amount unless they are using a card). She then asked me for the rest of the money which I did not have on me and I offered to bring it later so she won't get in trouble. I asked her who's fault this was and she went on a tamper tantrum. She started cursing and insulting me in front of another customer, who had no idea of what was going on. I simply got in my car and left. Will not be going to a Speedway unless its a life or death situation.

Don't go to that one until she's been fired. Go to another one. I don't know what her problem was, but that sounds lie a washout that somehow made it through the system.

Speedway employee

Employee who name is John works at the speedway on Harn Blvd and hasn't been asking people for their ID when purchasing Tabacco products from the store. I asked him why and he said "Because I remember them" but I forgot my ID once and had to walk all the way back home to get my ID just to buy a black and mild mind you I go to this store DAILY and my child's father purchased a pack of cigarettes and he did not ask for his ID I don't think this is fair and I know it's against employees policy

Do you go to this store daily on John's shift? Probably not, else he'd remember you. He still should be checking ID even on the people he knows. I don't agree with this law, I think it's BS like the rest of the anti-tobacco conjob, but I can't do much to change it.

Speedway employees/management

7/9/2018

I just left the Speedway location on the corner of Oklahoma and Howell in Milwaukee Wi. I am so irritated right now. As I was paying for my purchase the manager who was checking me out pulled out her phone and it seemed as though she was trying to take pictures as I put in my debit pin. This happened at approximately 9:27 pm. I noticed yhis manager is new and with her the store has began to go down hill. Coffee is rarely made and usually of the 5 coffee selections available only 1 or 2 are available. I will be talking to an attorney Tomorrow regarding this incident. No employee should have there phone out near the register and especially not be using it as someone is paying. It's even more rediculous that this employee was managment. She appears to be under the influence Everytime im there. I don't know her name but I know she is filling in while the regular manager is out sick. Something needs to be done.

She needs to be fired immediately. That's bad stuff. She's a criminal who somehow got hired and she's stealing credit card info. She belongs in prison.

Speedway rude, belligerent and unethical behavior

At 4:40 pm, Tuesday, July 3rd, I went to the Speedway at 3202 Daniels Road, Winter Garden, FL to fill up my tank. As I have had many problems with my credit card number being stolen from outside card readers, I always go inside to prepay. Today I sent my 12 year old daughter into the store to prepay (she has done this often with no problems). He ran my card and handed her a receipt that clearly showed that the card had been charged as it gave an authorization code. My daughter came back outside and handed me the receipt, but the gas pump was not turned on. We waited another 5 minutes and then I sent her back in to let him know that the pump had not been turned on. When she went up to the counter he threw the receipt at her and said he needed to charge the card again. She came back outside with a new receipt that showed $0.00. I then proceeded to go into the store myself as I did not understand the problem. I waited patiently in line behind 3 other customers. When I approached the counter, Michael immediately yelled at me that I had the receipt. I tried to explain that my card had been charged but the pump never turned on. He just kept yelling that the 2nd receipt was the one that mattered. He failed to explain why the pump was never turned on and refused to even listen to me. Michael then refused to speak any further with me regarding the issue and yelled to customers behind me that he would take them now. I told him that I was not leaving without my gas. He continued to yell at me and tell me that he was "done with me". I told him that I wanted to speak with a manager. Someone came over (a girl) to try to assist me and he yelled at her that she was not to help me. She then backed away from the counter. Finally, Christine came over to the counter and I began to try to explain the situation, but while I tried to speak to her, Michael continued to yell at me and interrupt me while I was speaking to Christine. Eventually, I was able to explain the problem to Christine and she informed me that my card had been refunded and that I must have hit the wrong button outside. I explained that I had not touched anything...the pump was never turned on. She simply said that she did not know as she had not been the one to ring me up the first time around. While I understand this, and appreciate her calmly explaining the problem to me, it didn't really explain why the pump had not been turned on by Michael and why he supposedly had refunded my card. She did charge my card again and I was able to get my gas. At the end of my transaction, I asked Christina to give me the number to speak to someone about Michael's behavior and he continued to yell at me and demanded my name so that he could complain about me. I again told him that I was going to report him for his actions and pointed out to him that he was continuing to argue and yell at me in front of the others in the store, for no reason. He yelled back at me that I was the one arguing with him...REALLY!?

But honestly, I have nearly 19, 000 points as I go frequently to Speedway and this kind of rudeness and belligerence is not acceptable. I am a teacher and also have worked in retail for many years and can tell you that it is NEVER acceptable to yell at your customers, refuse them service simply for questioning a transaction, and treat them this rudely. This was by far the worst experience I have EVER had at a gas station.

Why did you send your daughter? Yes, you've not had this problem before, but sending kids to do an adult's job is nothing but drama that you don't need. What I think happened is that it got put on the wrong pump, someone gassed up with it thinking they got free gas (see this all the time, just take the pump off the stand expecting it to work) and they inadvertantly stole your gas. Michael's problem is that he didn't pay attention, he didn't want to accept responsibility, and if I were Christine he would have been fired that very moment. To bring this back to your daughter, the reason is that she might not have known what pump to put it on, forgot, or simply in her excitement to transact told him the wrong number. (as I've done even as a full grown adult!) Regardless, he's got no business working at a place like Speedway. Yes, these people are under constant stress, but those who can't handle it shouldn't be working there. It's not like Wal-Mart or Meijers where you have a regular flow of business. He should work there, but not at Speedway. He doesn't have the right temperment, and I dare say to work at all.

Speedway cashier racism

I was recently at the speedway in Lexington Kentucky, on Richmond road, waiting in line when I overheard the cashier speaking to the woman in front of me. "Middle eastern [censored]". Being middle eastern, I took much offense to this and simply, couldn't understand how an employee could use such volatile language with a customer and especially right in front of someone from that ethnic group. I was very displeased and offended by the cashiers comment. This shouldn't be something a company should take lightly. I work at a job where I have to talk with customers all day, and not once have I ever heard a coworker or any other employee say something so rude and disrespectful.

I don't know either, but I bet you they were fired for it. If not they should be. Be thankful you don't work with people like that, but do be aware they exist and it's usually contributed to a whole lot of factors which equal out to "Unemployable." Maybe in the 1800s things like that could happen, but we are no longer so barbaric. Some people just haven't caught up yet, and that's a problem.

Speedway air pump

I went to simply put some air in my tire recently and the card machine on it would continuously say it was authorizing my purchase. It then said my purchase was cancelled and proceeded to not do anything. I gave up on it after a few tries, then went to check my bank account and it charged me anyways! Is there any way someone could help me get my money back that I wasn't even supposed to be charged?

The bank itself is who you should talk to. Don't take the line of "You have to call Speedway." There's nothing Speedway can do when it's the bank's responsibility to remove charges that weren't transacted correctly. Bank employees are just like any other employees - some like doing their job, some go out of their way to avoid actually doing work. Keep trying until you get the former.

Speedway the attendee name pam - service when busy but not too busy

Pam had an attitude she snapped at me in front of other customers and my family. The time was 2:30 on july 1st, 2018 @ the location in Muskegon, michigan on Henry and Broadway, would not let me scan my speedway card after she asked if I had one as I was getting it out. I went there to buy a 44oz pop, slushy a speedy stuffer and a tornado. Just because an employee is having a bad day does not mean they can take it out on a customer. It's very uncalled for...

I won't ask pm or am, because it really doesn't matter. What matters is Pam's attitude. I know they have to ask and a lot of time they ask as I'm already pulling it out. I just keep doing what I'm doing and pay it no mind because I know it's a thing. What the problem is not scanning and why Pam had an attitude. She scans hundreds a day, a few of which are trouble to scan because they're so worn down, but yours was the one time she couldn't take it anymore? There seems to be more to this story.

Speedway unethical behaviour

I was in the speedway in cheboygan michigan on june 30th. I was trying to pump gas the pump would not turn on. I usually pump my gas and pay for my other purchases on one charge. When it didn't work I went I the store and asked why the pump was not turned on. The manager got all up in my face was rude and belligerent saying that I had 7, 000 dollars in drive offs in six months! On top of this she had a couple of her guy friends in there getting up in my face as well. Standing in the parking lot bragging to each other about how they told me while the other customers are standing there waiting for service! This is no way to talk to a customer that gives a store around 4, 000 a year in business. I drive around 400 to 500 miles a day in my work truck, my wife fills up 3 times a week and I fill up my pickup once a week and I always went out of my way to give speedway my business. We used to enjoy every morning breakfast sandwiches and coffee with other purchases. Now we will never go to your speedway stores for business ever I will drive 20 miles out of my way for a gallon of gas and that goes for my whole family in cheboygan mi thats 32 lost customers a year you do the math!

32 ignorant customers, perhaps, if you're going let this one store and this one incident stop you from going to Speedway ever again. They can do without you. If you're smart, you'll just go to another store and keep on trucking. Frankly, they'll be happy if you don't, because 32 less people means they can get their work done on time, go home, and actually see their families. If you really want to get under their skin, find 32 more people to flood their floor with at all hours of the day. Get those turnover numbers up. You're not hurting their business when they take in close to a million a day like the one up the road from me does. And yes, drive offs are a problem. Speedway shouldn't be starting the pump for you in the first place - it's against policy ever since the mid-2000s at every gas station I've been to. Why you were let slip through the cracks is a mystery, but whatever. $7, 000 this month? That's cute. It's gone down, because CitGo in the last year they ran the pumps with prepay lost $13, 000 roundabouts. You think you getting an attitude because they're tired of being robbed is going to change their mind? You are the reason they did it. People copping an attitude is why ANYTHING happens. Now pay for your gas before you get it, or don't drive your truck 400 to 500 miles a day. It's that simple. It's not all about you, and the customer service industry needs to learn to stop being such spineless cowards when it comes to people like you. You are the reason we can't have nice things.

Speedway general service

I went into speedway at 0530 on Sunday July 1st 2018 to get a water. Despite the state of disarray in the store and overall uncleanliness of the floors and drink area, when I brought up the fact that they could clean a little with the downtime they had through the night I was menacingly told off by the manager. When she was through giving me the business and I was trying to retort I was revoked all privaleges to purchase anything in the store. I matched her nastiness with equal slander and vulgarity. I don't know why she was so angry or provoked me to be as equally angry but the situation should never have unfolded the way it did.

Yeah... they don't get downtime. Night time for Speedway is just as bad as day time. They have one person working there and the constant flow of customers does not stop. If that person's not working the counter, they're frantically trying to do a dozen things at once in the 30 seconds or so before the next person comes in. The floors are impossible, because they get it mopped just in time for another work booted slug to track all his mud all over it again before it's even dried. Thanks to payroll restrictions they have to make do, because hiring a second person to cover third shift is already hard enough even if they could do it. No one wants to work third shift, except the ones that do and already have another job making double to triple what Speedway pays its employees. Some nights they get lucky, but most nights no. They don't. They're lucky to step away from the register for five minutes total all night, and so the times you see the store in good shape by 0530 is because their friend came in and helped them as unpaid labor, or 2nd shift did a truly amazing job of getting all 3rd shift's work done for them so they didn't have much to do. Seen this happen. I'm in Speedway a lot at all times of day. Trust me, their job seems easy but you're only seeing the store front. You have no idea how much work they have to do on top of manning the registers. If she was [censored]ing you out, she was defending her employee and that's something you don't see too often. Managers will flake on their people left and right, so one taking up for her employee is something to be treasured. Maybe not by you, as you were the recipient, but just take a moment to appreciate what she did. Put yourself outside your own shoes for just a moment. What you saw is like a shooting star. Just sucks it was you in the crosshairs when it happened, y'know?

Hmmm... shift change is not until 3pm, one of those employees may have been that person showing up to work early to talk to the boss, so that's two. The other employee may have been counting down, but they would have stopped the moment the line got to be more than three people... yeah, I'm going to say they were unorganized and they needed to do something for it. It's unacceptable to have that many people in line and only one register, unless there has been a power outage and it knocked out two of them. Which could have the been case; not necessarily power outage, but the registers being down. Those things run off Windows XP, and while it's stable as platforms go, if there's a problem then it's serious. But who knows? Unless they explain themselves, the only thing to call it is "Wrong" and they need to get their act together... or find a manager who will.

Speedway manager

I love in Boone NC . i was in the Speedway in Perkinsville yesterday. The hotdog cheese chili machine was broke. Mike the manager took it apart & threw the VERY HOT concrete slab thats inside the panel in my hands. It burned me. I have several witnesses that saw this. Hes a very rude & inconsiderate manager & has also been seen yelling @ employees. I now have a burn mark on both hands. This was stupid & wrong for him to do this.

There's a man that needs firing, and probably some probation too. That's not concrete, but I get your drift. It's very hot, around 140-150 degrees hot when operating at appropriate temperature. I am sorry for your pain, but not as sorry as Mike should be.

Speedway cashier and manager interaction

6/21/18 around 420pm gave reward slip to cashier to get 10 cent off gallon. She scan it and then immediately crumple it up. Told me i didnt have that reward. I try to explain she said no. I ask for manager (kendra) and was told it wont matter. Kendra came to talk to me. She also had a very poor customer service approach. Told me cashier behavior was ok and she would discuss later. Then still was not helpful with reward. I was very shocked by their way of interact with customers

Speedway management 8209

Being rude. Didnt speak, just came out and said it's too hot. The only thing I wanted was a verification letter. She shut the door in my face as we were walking into the building. Telling me that I don't need to come to the store, go somewhere else. Just being unprofessional as a manager as soon as I tried to speak with her, she has an instant attitude. Not talking with me professionally. Cursing while customers are in the the store. Not showing respect because she has an attitude.

Speedway inappropriate conduct

Hello speedway, I wanna make a serious complaint about your manager Lola. Every time I'm in there she is making rude and disrespectful comment about her employees and the customers. I didn't know it was speedway policy to rant about your insignificant problems to your customers. I expect something to be done immediately. Also I will be calling customer service as soon as possible. Her attitude and demeanor is appalling. Please contact me for any questions. I will stand by and watch a general manager disrespect others.

For some people it could be what passes at making conversation, but I do agree that it's not the time or place for it. She needs a different topic to chat about. Most people don't want to hear that kind of thing. I don't mind hearing it every now and again, but if it were every single day? I might not be thrilled at all.

Speedway customer service

I am complaining about the customer service at speedway 6674. There is no way should a speedway puts computer work ahead of customer service. There was two cashiers and a line snaking all the way to the fountain machine, and coming close to the subway. Some of the customers even walked away. One employee seemed to be either shutting down a drawer and another helping on subway. My question is why was the GM working on the computer instead of jumping on a drawer to get these customers out and on there way?

Because the GM is doing inventory which needs to be done, else you have no products to buy and no gas to put in your car. There are two people on the counter and they're supposed to be dealing with the line, or doing the legion of tasks of the day when there are no customers in the store. The GM should have told the shutting down employee to keep working and paid the overtime (if that was the case), and told the counter person helping the Subway counter to stop it and work register. Unless, of course, they were assigned to the Subway counter and the person shutting down was deathly ill. It would be inhumane to make them keep working, in which case Inventory has to wait and the GM works the counter. So by my count there was no one working the registers, unless you mean there were two on registers and a third was shutting down? In that case the GM couldn't jump on a register because there were none available, so Inventory was the only thing he could have done. Yes, I know I keep bringing up Inventory - I asked once and that is literally the only thing that computer is there for, that and corporate email. It was just a case of too many people, I'm afraid, if your story is how I interpret it being. Even fully staffed there is only so much that can be done, and if both registers were servicing lotto/scratch-offs customers, those always take forever because they're so entitled as to not be aware of other people at all. I hate them so much. I will sometimes be standing in line ten minutes while they dawdle and ho-hum their way through the transaction, digging in purses for upwards to a minute and then handing the clerk a hundred dollar bill for $6 or so. I. Hate. Those. People. Never be in a hurry when you go to Speedway or any other gas station, because sure as hell there's gonna be some woman with seventeen lotto slips and six scratch-offs, and she's not going to move aside so you can buy your one drink and move on.

Speedway treatment of employees

I'm not going to make this long or full of nasty words I'm really just trying to figure things out in my head. I'm talking about my employment . Around a week and a half ago I was running the register and my third shifter walked in. I have been alone since eight o'clock. All of the sudden I look up and see a gun in my face. I asked the robber are you serious? And he said yes give me all of your money now. I kind of jerked away from him and he followed me with the gun saying I'm not playing give me all your money. Immediately put my hands up and said you're good man that's cool here. I took the tail out of the register and put it on the counter. My employer look at me scared out of her mind and grab the store Keys going to lock the front door. I grabbed the store phone and started heading towards her then we heard gunshots. I said forget the front door does door locks automatically. She's crying hysterically we're hearing gunshots outside and I dial nine-one-one. Herb Blaine arise within the hour to talk to police with me. I was told to make my final drop a 0 to figure out how much was taken. Days later he calls me to say it's policy that I had too much money in my drawer. Okay I guess what I'm trying to say is how do we know how much money was in my drawer when my changer was not full. Also being alone for 2 hours I didn't get a chance to drop as often as I normally would have it was kind of busy. So what policy says hey you're alone but ignore the customer drop everything and then get a gun to your head and get fired? I guess I want someone to acknowledge this there's no way to say what wasn't in the changer. And then normally if I have extra fives and ones I can sell them to my third shifter. Our change order has been messed up with us for two weeks now ever since our gm went on maternity leave. I've been covering shifts staying over and working my butt off to get that store in order. We even double past our last inspection because of that. Missing our gm has caused us to not get change. One week we had no fountian drinks its been a rough go of things and for my small mistake of having maybe 80 dollars too much in my drawer shouldnt cause me to be in the unemployment line. The night we got robbed I even stayed until 4 in the morning. I was supposed to get off at 10. The third shifter was hysterical and did not want to stay without me. So I go above and beyond working a 15 hour shift straight to be fired? I go from emotional truama to unenployment line in 2 days?

Company Policy is a trap. To obey it, you have to ignore customer, which gets you complaints. But then you robbed, he doesn't get very much, and you still get canned because complaints and you're short in your register because you got robbed. If you ignore it, then what happened to you happens. All the while having your humanity taken from you because you're supposed to bend over and do whatever the robber wants, the customers want, and so forth. All for $8-9 an hour. It's the most dehumanizing thing ever conceived, and we accept this. What should you have done? There's nothing you could have done. They shouldn't have fired you. It was wrong, and they covered because they have it in the policy and therefore sheltered from wrong-doing. Model employee, I'd hire you in a heartbeat if I was an employer.
