Subway service very bad service

Hello, I want to logdeg a complaint against your chain which is located in Karachi, sindh, Pakistan. The disco bakery branch.
First of all my order was 2 hours late and when I called up the franchise they didn't addressed the problem correctly and to top that also cancelled my call and refused to pick up again. Then when I talked to the deliver guy he said " we are human we get late". This is not an answer you people should give to your customers. Worst management ever faced in my life won't be having food from subway again.

Subway employee not fixing the food properly

My Husband and I visited the Subway 5300 duke st Durham NC. There were two young ladies working and it was near closing. The one that served us did not fix our food right and literally put a pinch of everything in the salad we ordered then proceeded to charge us almost seven dollars. I refused to pay that but my husband is diabetic and needed to eat so he got his. I will not be going back there again.

Subway employee getting fired for needing off for her grandfather's funeral because it was out of state!

My daughter was an employee at the Subway in Marlin, Tx she asked off to go to her grandfathers funeral which was in Tennessee her supervisor told her that she did not have the coverage and that if she took off when she returned from the funeral to bring her stuff in and that she would have to fire her when I called and asked for HR which is also the supervisor she told me grandparents were not considered immediate family ! She told my daughter that she had already just a few months ago worked it to where she could take off for her other grandfather's funeral which has been Very hard on my daughter because she was very very close to him! The supervisor told me at the end of our conversation that she would not fire her but would write her up I told her that my daughter had already been through enough Just to get off to go to the funeral that she was not returning from the funeral to get a write up! When my daughter went in to turn her things in the supervisor had the nerve to tell her she had to work for her that Sunday! I have been in management before and know that is something you do it's part of being in management you step up when there's no coverage! My daughter has worked there for several months almost a year and never has called in sick, she would always go in when called in! This same supervisor fired my daughter about three or four months ago because she needed off to sing and do the music for a pastor's family prayer night which my daughter found someone to cover for her and the supervisor still wrote her up then fired her! Then about a month ago called her back to come to work there that should say something about my daughter and what kind of a good employee she is! Something needs to be done the turnover for employees has been really high just in the time my daughter has been an employee there, the supervisor writes the employees up for every little thing they do! Also with losing both grandparents in the past few months when my daughter ask off the supervisor never once said I'm sorry to hear about your loss and had no remorse at all was just worried about having coverage and not worried about her employee and her great loss ! Please something needs to be done the employees do not deserve the way they are being treated! A bad supervisor makes a bad employee which makes service bad for subway and gives them a bad name! Please do something to change this! Thank you! My daughter also told me that this same supervisor has the employees change the date on the labels of the food to make them last longer! Please do something!

Subway it's always nice to have hair in your food. not!

I brought my son into the subway in Long beach, Ms. The first thing he points out is no one is wearing hair nets. He said, i dont want hair in my food. I told him it'll be alright. Well was i wrong. We got home and started eating are food and i was enjoying it. Until i go to pick up an olive and noticed it wasn't alone. It was hair tagging along. I couldn't help but to lose my appetite. I've changed my mind to hair nets at subway. Cause obviously there needed.

Subway customer service

The Gaffney SC at 918 Hyatt St. has the worst Customer Servixe of any Subway I have ever encountered. The Manager 'Dale' was rude from the beginning of the experience and did not even greet, say hello, etc. He just barked - what'd you get, chips, sandwich - when he came to the window to get my money. There is much more of the horrible experience, but the gist is that his rudeness cost Subway the loss of business and money and I'm quite sure it's not the first. You can contact t me for details of all of his actions and I will be happy to inform you. I would hope you would care enough about your company to fix this error and terrible Customer Service Agent that you employ, for your own benefit .

Subway employee was rude

Hi there!
About two weeks ago my husband and I visited Subway 65 Inf.(next to Burlington) at Rio Piedras, P.R. I was directing myself to the bathroom when one of the employees tells my husband that if you are not buying you can"t use the bathroom in front of other customers which were waiting in the line! My husband answered nicely "don"t worry that we are going to buy". For our surprise it was the same employee that prepared our sandwich! I asked myself would this guy treated someone of his family as the way he treated my husband? Also there is no sign in the store indicating the policy that the employee said to my husband! It is sad that some employees treat their customers this way knowing that this is a great possibility of the store losing customers.

Thanks,
Mrs. E. Medina
San Juan, P.R.

Subway no variety of options & rude management

Manager is very rude to employees and use harsh language on the job in the front lobby. Ive been there on plenty of occasions when she insisted on arguing wih employees and I confronted her about its not professional in the workplace for customers to hear the carrying on. There is limited options of subs and other items to get for instance sauces (sirarcha) and seafood, buffalo chicken like other subways. When asked if they will be avaliable, her words was i have personal pizza in replace of seafood and its to much for me to count in inventory. I normally take the drive to a different subway location for a more professional setting and better options to choose from.

Subway refused service

Around 2am on August 6th I came through subway on my way home from a little get together. I have enjoyed food from this subway over the 11 years it's been there. I also have been employed at this very subway. Unfortunately at 2am i was unable to be served a sandwich. The worker said that it was a full inventory count and takes 15-20mins before she could make me one. Refusing my service I stood there and said again I'd like a sandwich. She laughed and told me it was going to be awhile because of the down. I may be wrong and things may of changed but I know there is an inventory count done right at 2 and the computer needs to start a new day. Aside that I was willing to stand and wait as I knew this and she still refuses my service. I than proceeded to the connecting gas station and bought chips soda and a sandwhich and sat and ate it in my car for the next 20 mins your subway worker continued to stand there and pretend to be going through receipts. I have no issues with this subway. There is no grudge or any of that. Just a very long time customer that will not be going back there.

Subway bugs and dirty

Have seen roaches crawl out of the bread oven. Most of the employees are not presentable. The manager is very rude to customers that come in and she doesn't like. She only hires the people she knows. The service sucks and the store is nasty. They talk disrespectful to elders. Just not happy with the store or how it's run. The main issue I have is the bugs and outdated food they serve.

Subway service

The sign on the door says open 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM on Sunday. I went at 8:49 PM on Sunday 31 July. The door was locked, the lights were down low and the girl behind the counter would not even look up when I knocked on the door. I have photographs. The service here is sporadic. Some of the employees do a great job, others clearly don't want to be there and should find another job. If this is a management problem then management needs to be changed

Subway bread quality, veggies, sauce n customer service

We are traveling from Texas and after visiting newyork city we drove to niagara n enroute we picked the subway located in clarks summit pa for breakfast. The experience was terrible
And so far I have never experienced such bad quality subway food anywhere for the past 10 years . There were two people working without a smile and that can be ignored as long as the food is good. The bread smelled stale n old n dry. The veggies weren't fresh n the ma had a stingy arm in keeping veggies. He literally picked a string of onion, a tomato slice n same with other veggies. They ran out of sauces n above all the paper n wrap smelled terribly bad. I had to trash my food finally.

Subway coupons

After entering subway. Told employees about email coupons. Was informed coupons can't be used. None of the coupons are registered at the stores. All email coupons I can't use in any of the local restaurants. My question is Why coupons thru emails are not available for use? Is there an area near me where I can use the email coupons? I eat subway everyday and would appreciate any discount available.

Subway chicken teriyaki salad

My son Went to the restaurant for a chicken teriyaki salad. This was a take out salad. When he came home and took out his salad he showed me that they gave him such a small amount. He's gotten this salad before and it was never this small. I took a picture which I would be happy to send. He is only 16 and saw at the restaurant that the person was giving him very little salad but was too embarrassed to say something. He spent his own money on this salad. It is very upsetting that this store is taking his money and hardly giving him any food. You need to teach your employees about the proper amount to serve their customers.

Subway washroom facility for customer and visitor

I visited your outlet situated at Amboli Naka, Andheri-West, Mumbai, around 12:30 PM on 29.07.2017, The Cafe Manager arrogantly debarred me to use the washroom and told it is only for Staff and not for Customers which I complained to Area Manager Mr. Ajay Maurya ( Phone: [protected] ), He also replied me the same,
Need to know your mangement policy on this, Can washroom if available in premises cannot be used by Customers/Visitor's?

We assume Subway a good brand, with so much cheapness in staff behaviour and your Cafe Utility services.
