Tim Hortons not served bread with soup, told they hadn't baked it yet (11:30 a.m.!!!)

I ordered soup and was surprised there was no bread in the bag but it was FILLED with crackers. When I asked why no bread, she said they hadn't baked it yet! It was lunch time, 11:30 a.m. on a weekday. And she didn't mention it to me when I ordered or received my soup. So you just don't give the customer their whole order? That's not okay. I paid for it.

Also, I ordered an iced tea with extra ice, but there was hardly any ice and it was warm! So I asked for an extra glass of ice.

AND the last time I went to Tim Horton's the same drive thru worker said she hates the customers AS I WAS EXITING the drive thru with my food! All I asked her was what kind of soups they had and the price of a large iced tea. I guess that makes me a bad customer?

She should be fired.

Tim Hortons choice of whipped cream

My grandma and I always love going to Tim Horton on a hot summer day or after school to get a frozen hot chocolate. We always loved the chocolate whipped cream. When you got rid of it we didn't really think the drink was as good as it was with chocolate whipped cream and didn't get the drink as much. We would like you to bring back the chocolate whipped cream even if it'll be a slight upcharge to put it on a drink, we are okay with that.

Tim Hortons delivery trucks running for 3-4 hours outside of our home

The residents who are West facing in One Bedford (Corner of Bloor and Bedford Rd, Toronto) are continually woken at early hours to a Tim Horton's delivery truck running on high idle / or with the coolant system running. The truck often arrives before 6 am and does not leave until 9 am. The noise is unacceptable. We addressed this months ago and the truck was silent for several months. For some reason the noise and duration of delivery are once again a problem. Please address. Thank you.

Tim Hortons unethical behavior, wrong order

Upon receiving my order, the staff at the window was unfriendly upon informing them we do not speak french. After I got my latte, I arrive at work to taste water in it; absolutely disgusting. I call them, and request to speak to the manager to voice my concern and make them aware of what's happened as I am a regular customer there. She answers the phone, once I advise her what has happened she starts to argue with me, and becomes very rude telling me a latte has milk not water and there is no way. I offered to take it back, and she taste it then, and she continued to argue with me. Very unprofessional, and is not in the place to be a manager if that is how she handles with customers. I said are you a manager? I am just letting you know, and telling you as a customer. She yelled back at me she was, and she made the coffee. Never in my life, have I received such service, nor have I heard of anyone else I know receiving such.

Tim Hortons #7 breakfast combo @ 8:35 am (mon may 7, 2018)

I came to my office early this morning to find that my breakfast combo is missing the hash brown inside. I was patiently waiting at the store for my order and I was in no rush even if it took time for order to made properly, I was completely okay with. I understand that Tim Horton's attempts to promote high quality service at a fast-pace to maintain its customer base, however why are the employees rushing. Please advise that I do not require a refund or anything, but I want to ensure this is being addressed appropriately so a similar incident does not occur in the future.

Tim Hortons accessibility/customer service.

Hello,
Friday Evening May 4th, 2018. I headed towards my local tims in Milton Ontario (Derry road And Bronte Inters) to get my regular order. After spending over half an hour in the drive thru line, I was unable to place my Order at the drive thru screen because of unavailibity of the system, when I got all the way up to the drive thru person, they told me they were only taking cash very abruptly and because I didn't have that. I had to come in and wait in line again. After further waiting 20 minutes inside I was greeted with a Subpar employee who had no interest in taking my order. My coffees tasted burned (as they could have been old). As an ex employee of Tim Hortons my self (worked at Steele's Avenue with Don and Penny 8 years ago) I know how high the standard is and was set pertaining to customer service. Not only was my time wasted but the store was incredibly unapologetic and showed no empathy. This experience truly is disheartening and it leaves me with an incredibly bad taste for the company. I hope you understand.
Best,
Ahad Gillani
My personal email : [protected]@outlook.com
Event happened : 9:30 Pm Friday May 4th, Milton, Ontario.

Tim Hortons I didn't receive my whole order

This morning I went into the drive-thru of Tim Hortons and a lady was very pleasant at first and then she got very ignorant her body language her attitude glaring at me she said something along the lines as I took a program for granted and I was abusing the system whatever that means. But in the end when we received our order we were missing one coffee what we ordered was a medium steep tea a small double double and a sour cream glazed donut. So I realize that I had not had my coffee and I went back and asked her for my coffee and she said that she could not help me with that and that I abused the system and she will not help me at all this is a case of mistaken identity and I asked her her name I explained to her that I don't know what she's talking about and it's uncalled for and she still refused to give my coffee so here it is at 8:25 a.m. I'm still in my pajamas I've had enough of this store it's been so many incidences like this and it's getting to be too much this is the last straw I'm walked out of there without my coffee and I'm pissed I asked the woman for her name. ... mesh is her name unbelievable customer service

Tim Hortons the one manager is a filipino and is trying to fire me.

Everything that has happened to me at Tim Hortons in Bonnyville, Ab, Canada. I started there on November 17/2017 as a baker. Dec. 9th I was doing my cleanup and I shut an oven down too fast, and caused some damage. I owned up to it the next day, it was my fault. So now I don't clean the ovens at night anymore. Week of Christmas I was given only 2 shifts, one was an 8 hour shift and the other was a 6 hour shift. That week I only worked 14 hours. I live in Bonnyville by myself, my family isn't here, so I have no one. From Dec on I have stayed at 6 hours a day. I have been there almost 6 months, and in that time they are accusing me of breaking the fondant machine. I know for a fact that machine was broken long before this happened. I could feel liquid running down the inside of my pants. So I know that I'm not to blame for it breaking down. My store's one manager, her name is Veronica Eder. She is the one who is trying to fire me. And shes a Filipino. They need to stop trying to take jobs away from Canadians! I owned up to the fondant machine breaking down, I didn't remember that it was leaking before hand. She said that the element for the machine would cost $1200.00 but elements don't cost much. They cost like $85.00. I'm tired of taking the blame for things being broken there. Things happen all the time. Shes had it out for me since day 1. My first shift there, I was left alone for 4 hours, while my supervisor was covering other peoples breaks. She didn't tell me what I was to do then either. I suggest that you guys review this as a SERIOUS matter, because I'm not the only one who feels like this! There are others at the same store as me, who are getting blamed for things as well! I like my job, but I don't deserve to be treated this way. I'm a human being too. Who makes mistakes, and takes responsibility for her actions.

Tim Hortons bad service

I was at the Tim Hortons on James St in St Catherine's On. Today at 9:28 am. I ordered from an oriental looking dark haired lady ( with bright red lipstick).
I asked for a medium double double and a chocolate glazed donut.
As I walked over to get my coffee from the shelf, She gave me a timbit instead of the donut. I tried to tell her dark haired coworker about the issue. Her coworker looked over at her screen, shrugged her shoulders and did nothing to fix the issue...

Tim Hortons chicken chipotle wrap

On Sunday April 29th, I went through the drive through at tim hortons and ordered a grille chick. Chip. Wrap. After paying almost $6 for the wrap I expected a decent wrap. When I received it, there was literally two pieces of cheese and 4 SMALL pieces of chicken. I was FAR from impressed but as I was leaving town, i didnt have time to turn around to have my wrap re-made for me. I took a picture of the wrap from the top vow to show that there was next to nothing in it. Lately has been a struggle with tim hortons as my cups leak almost on a daily basis from the seam and now my wrap. I spend a lot of money at Tim Hortons and expect better quality for what I pay. The girls in the morning on weekdays are phenomenal and always do things right. Your weekend staff needs work and to be taught how to make things properly and pay attention to detail. I'm not one to typically complain but I've had enough. It's not the first time it happens and this time I'm not ready to let it slide again. Hope you can help!

Tim Hortons roll up the rim

I won a $5000 CIBC card on feb 27. I took my cup in to an Edmonton location fully intact and filled out the form necessary. I was then told it could take up to 6-8 weeks to receive it in the mail. It has now been nine weeks. I was hoping someone could help me out. I have heard of other complaints about different roll up the rim item issues on the news and such I am really hoping I don't have to make a complaint as well that way I don't want to have to do that sort of thing I'm really a avid customer to Tim Hortons and would really like to stay that way but you know when you win something it's really nice to be able to get that price especially something like that thank you

Tim Hortons no honey or brown sugar they have taken all the outside garbage away

The only reason i would go to a tim hortons now is to use the washroom as a last resort. Disgusting the way employees are treated. And the above listed problems. How can you serve coffe and tea with no honey or raw sugar, even a dunce could figure that one out and here we are looking at a multi million dollar corporation. You are so interested in saving money you intentionally create garbage for our landfills and do no service to the public what so ever. The sooner you go down the tubes the better. Tim hortons scum of the earth.

Tim Hortons oatmeal

Please see attached picture. every time I order oatmeal from your store it looks exactly like this. I had to remove a full cup of water for this to even be eatable. please fix or make a new version of oatmeal, because this is the worst I've ever seen. store number is 4165. would also be nice if you could get the manager of the store to wear actual TH uniforms instead of his white stained undershirt that he wears every day.
