Subway I am complaining about a rude employee

I went to the napanee ontario canada subway that is downtown.
It was 23:40. I had just finished a long day and just wanted a sub. When I went in the female sandwich maker was extremely rude.
First she said she was closed. I asked what time do you close? She said midnight. Is it midnight yet? She asked.
I said no.
She rolled her eyes and said whatever.
I said I'm so sorry I just really want a sub.
She was slamming stuff around and giving major attitude.
I am a frequent costomer to this subway and this was horrible service. This isnt the first time this employee has been rude. I dont think she understands what costomer service means. I wanted to buy a sub for my lunch the next morning but was worried she would be more mad so i just took the easiest sub which was a veggie and went on my way very disappointed.

Subway service and safety

My family and I visited the subway in Bristol Indiana and was treated very rudely a bottle of sauce was dropped into my sandwich and the kid laughed and sold it to me like that then after we paid we were verbally assaulted outside the door this was the date of Friday October 5 th 2018 my family and friends are very concerned and have decided that we may approach the town council about this subway and it's workers we have been coming into this subway since it has opened and can not believe how we were treated I'm hoping that this group that worked and treated your paying customers this way will soon be replaced with people that make you look better and do justice to the paying customers and what we expect when visiting our local subway I can't say that I will ever go back or recommend this store either guess it depends on how you handle this situation thank you for your time and understanding in the very disturbing situation God Bless

Subway incorrect order/ unable to reach store

My husband went to the subway near our home about four nights ago and I wanted honey oat bread and the person said that what they were giving was a new kind of honey oat bread it was something completely different and I couldn't even eat my sandwich. I wasted an entire sandwich. Since then I have been unable to reach anybody by phone. I call I choose option two to be able to discuss other issues with someone and nobody ever answers and after two or three minutes of being on hold I'm disconnected every time.

Subway attitude of employee at store #37959 at subway located inside walmart.

I, my daughter and 2 grandchildren purposely went to this location to eat. As soon as we stepped into the restaurant the female employee did an eye roll and turned to the Male employee and said something. It was very obvious with her body language and eye rolling that she didn't like the idea of having to take care of us. The previous customer was still placing their order. I said to the two employees that " if you don't want me to be here I will be more than happy to leave". All the Male employee did was just look at me. I then spoke directly to the female employee and said are you having a bad day. Because apparently you don't want to wait on us. I have no problem leaving. I will gladly go somewhere else for better service. This took place at 6:38 PM. No where close to closing time. All 4 of us turned around and walked out and happily went to another restaurant. Definitely not another subway.

This is also not the worst bit. The worst bit is that my youngest granddaughter really wanted to go to Subway. When she did not get to go she started crying. I slapped her across the face. My daughter stood up for her and told me that I have no right slapping her across the face and if I do this she won't let me spend time with my granddaughters. I told her that she is raising her children to be babies and they should not be crying.

Subway 6 inch tuna sandwich

My tuna sandwich (that was supposed to be 6 inches) was only 5 inches. My "deluxe" amount of meat was leaking out of the ends of the sandwich making it very messy to eat. When I got home I meausured it with my iPhone X measuring feature and sure enough, it was barely 5 inches. I'm a weekly subway eater, and I would love to get 6 inches when I order just that.

Lord have mercy it's only an inch, less carbs anyways. They can't help that if you get extra meat, if it falls out. Take a minute to meditate or something because it sounds like you really just wanted something to complain about.

Subway online and customer service in store

Ordered online two kids meals no dairy products on my sandwiches because they are lactose intolerant. The app show that it came with juice not milk and when my husband went to pick it up the lady refused to switch it to the juice and not the milk. When we asked for a refund she refused. There needs to be a drink of [censored] and that lady needs to be more respectful when she talks to her customers. We will no longer be going to that subway even though it's 24 hours.

Subway subway not paying the employees the hours they have worked

I have worked at subway a few months and I have my 2 week notice about a month ago and subway still owes me 4 weeks of work I did for them and I'm calling the district manager over and over texting him he blames it on payroll then I go to the store he is not there I don't even know what to do now subway owes me money and I need the money ASAP and I cannot wait around like this. If I do not get paid in the next few days I'm going to report the company and file a law suit on them for the issues I had while I was working and for the money they owe me.

Subway chicken wrap

Over the last four days I've spent over £50 pound in the new chicken wraps for me and my family from the cheadle store councillor lane tonight 27th September I ordered 2 chicken wraps which were £5 pound each when I got home and opened it I could only taste salad there was literally a small handful of chicken on both wraps my partner the day before found a hair in his wrap I won't be coming again as for £5 pound each I expect more than a small handful of chicken for a wrap that big it was smothered in sauce so basically I payed for a salad and sauce wrap I'm not using subway anymore as I'm not getting my money's worth and with being a regular customer you would expect the staff to apologise as my partner did say where's all the chicken she was rude and pulled her face! Subway need to sort this ASAP as I will be telling family members not to buy from here again shocking!

Subway employees rude and filthy store

At 4:20 pm I entered store with my Girlfriend to purchase Dinner. There was a woman behind the counter making subs for a pair of customers. I noticed the store behind the counter was dirty and food spilled all over the counters. There was als a gentleman waiting to order. The woman rang out the couple and waited on the gentleman in front of us. She asked if she could take car of him first because he had been waiting awhile. That was ok. She rang out the gentleman and started yelling around the corner for some help "( She did this very loud and hateful)" a man came out and was washing his hands and she was yelling at him saying " You're not suppose to be here" and he came over to take our order. He was very pleasant and nice to us. But the time he was waiting on us this woman was yelling at him and screaming you are taking work time from me and I don't want you here when I am here. The man calmly asked us to hang on a minute and he went to the phone. I had had enough of listening to this Rude Woman Employee so we left with out our food. Besides the fact that the store looked horrible and dirty. I couldn't believe the conditions she had made As we left the woman still running her mouth "I don't want you to work with me "over and over sat down in dining room leaving the man with two other customers behind us. Every one of the customers in the store couldn't believe what was going on, we all spoke about it as we left. I don't think I would have stayed another second if I was your male employee. He was badly treated and verbally abused. It takes a special person to take all that and not loose your temper. I will Never Go to this store again

Subway subway store location sub 37896

I purchased fundraiser stickers where you can get free chips free cookies etc. 3 Times after paying at the kiosk I got free chips. Tonight for some reason The young girl said if you use the kiosk you can't get the free chips. I told her I've done the very same thing 3 other times and they gave it to me without question. Nowhere on the fundraiser sheet does it say you can't pay at the kiosk. She continued to argue with me and would not give me my free chips. I hardly go to Subway and only did it to help out the derby cheerleaders. Since I don't come to Subway often you probably don't care but you lost a customer over a bag of chips. I paid $14 for that fundraiser and I'm on disability so that's a lot of money to me. 😡😡😡

Subway I received horrible service from the person who prepared my sandwich

So they person making my sandwich snapped at me to let me know she can make my sandwich. I said hi she just looked at me disrespectful and didn't greet me back. She started to help me but was rushing my order but nobody else was in line and there was not that much urgency needed. She was very rude and I remained paitent. I wanted to verbally abuse her but that wouldn't calm or help the situation any. I don't ever want to receive the type of service I did today or ever at any Subway franchise.

Subway new chipotle steak and cheese

We tried your "NEW" Chipotle steak and cheese on crunchy sunflower bread. First I'd like to say the bread had very little taste and I did not notice any crunch or‘s very many sunflower seeds on the bread. Found the steak and cheese portion of the sandwich to be lacking in flavor. I don't believe I will purchase the sandwich again thought you should know!

Subway harpursville, new york

I live next to a young 20 year old that works in Subway in Harpursville, NY. We live in the Norma Garden Apartments. She has a weird name. She calls me a "[censored]" and a "Jerk" and I no longer will go into subway. She screams these things out the door. I expect your employees to behave like decent people in and out of the store. Her sister apparently rented one of the apartments and this young lady blames me for her moving out. We all have rules and her sister apparently did not follow them. This young lady does not pick up her dog feces and this has been an ongoing issue. We used to go for subs all the time but I am disgusted by her behavior and avoid her at all costs. She moved into the senior side of the apartments and apparently shows no respect for others. Perhaps you could work on her manners so we could again enjoy going into Subway. Sincerely, Barbara and Barton.
