Costco costco versus ge and other big businesses

In 2012, I purchased a front loading clothes washer made by GE. By 2015, its bearing were worn. After the service call, they agreed to repair it at a reduced price that was even less than what I paid for their current repair (I am complaining about). The washer started leaking water a few months ago. First it was small amount and then it increased. We tried to diagnose it ourselves and made sure it was not the condensate coming from somewhere. I thought of getting rid of this lemon, but the service center expressed, we will make a service call for $99.00 and if you do not accept the repair, we will credit it towards the next purchase of a GE Washer. I agreed. The tech came with a screw driver and could not even open the screw (I had to give him my drill and drill bit to drill the screw out). He ran washer on spin/drain cycle and saw water leaking and without adequately checking its source made up his mind: it is gasket; and gave me a labor estimate of $230.00 plus price of the gasket to replace it. The office then gave me a price break on the gasket but only if I order it through them (not the Tech and take 1-year warranty instead of 5-year) and then they gave me a one time 25% discount on labor which motivated me to try to get it repaired. Gasket arrived at a cost of about $70.00 and the repairman came. He saw nothing wrong with the gasket and then noted that the top water hose had came out of the drum because the Tech who rebuilt it previously did not seal it. He pushed the pipe back; put a sealant and gave me a bill of $210.00 instead of $230. I told him, it was GE first technician's fault not to seal it and now your fault for wrong diagnosis and pushing the hose is not the same as replacing the gasket. If he did the diagnostic visit carefully, he would have pushed the hose back then. He ran out angrily saying I was giving you a discount and you do not want it; now I will make sure you pay the full price!.

Today, I spoke to one of the supervisors who did not listen to me at all and supported his tech and asked me to pay $183 $110.00 minus 25% plus $99 for the first visit. They took no responsibility for the poor assembly in December 2015, ma's-diagnosing the problem in the first visit and charged me almost half the price of a new washer for pushing the hose back into the outer casing of the drum. One can buy a similar washer from Costco and then return it after 3 years if it fails to perform for a full refund. May be Costco has spoiled me and it is unfair to expect GE to match Costco !

Costco personal

There was an employ of your we saw out in the parking lot do drugs, my son saw him and pointed at the man I looked and it he was sniffing up lines it was clear as day he was in a silver 2 door Honda, he had a beard and when I saw him get out of the door his name tag read oscar r. I don't think you guys should have these type of people working for you. You guys are a great store and it kills me that my son had to see that, I have my own business and go there twice a week to re up. This incident hesitates me to go. I hope this get fixed and you take care of these people.

Costco unethical behavior

Today, june 30th, 2017 at 10:30 am, I loaded the shopping car with two beach umbrellas that I had bought before, to return them because these are actually "beach umbrellas" blue and white stripes across, with the post ending in a black spiral to stack them in the sand. I wanted umbrellas for my patio tables.

When I was about to enter the store, I looked behind me because I was with my mother and saw her a little unstable. When I turned to enter, the shopping car with the umbrellas had disappeared. I called one of your associates to tell her what had happened, and she said, "i'm going to look for it". After, I went to the customer service counter and I tried to explain to another associate what had happened and she told me that I was outside the store, therefore costco was not responsible. I think this is not correct. Is true, I was not inside the store but I was standing in costco premises.
Please help me to recover my umbrellas or my money. My name is sonia e orlando. Member # [protected]. I've been a member since 1999 and I never had encountered any problem.
Sincerely,

Costco is very good, but theft is a theft and I donot know how can they help. Imagine if you got pick pocketed! Would you go to the police station or US government and say, I was in your territory and got pick pocketed; pay me the compensation! They will say go to your insurance; I will say the same to you! Costco is the best store in the whole world and do not try to pull it down

Costco a rude employee

I asked an employee named Eric where was the sensible eco living garbage can and he said he wasn't sure so he said he will ask his supervisor Skip. Once Eric came back he wasn't sure what Skip said where the trash can were because of the noise in the background. Skip got rude and was like I've told you were it was! You walked passed it! Did you not see it!? Eric explained that he couldn't hear him due to the noise. Skip then said I can clearly hear you how is it you don't hear me. He was extremely hostile and rude to his employee.

Costco customer service

Last week I brought my younger cousins with me to my local Costco here in Orlando, FL on University Blvd. as I had been boasting about the store and they had never been there before. At checkout, I asked the woman if I could split the payment using two cards. She asked for the cards, then looked at it and said, " Wait who is Melanie Gutierrez, " I then answered "Me." She then proceeded to ask who the other two names were on the cards and I told her my cousins who were there with me. She then said she couldn't process the transaction and said, " Or they could get a Costco membership since they obviously like to shop here." I was completely appalled and then asked if the manager could approve it this one time since I was not aware. She then yelled out across the store to get her supervisors attention, at this point you can imagine the embaressment we felt standing there as clearly everyone was looking at us. He then came over and basically said the same thing and walked away. After this entire debacle, she said, " Well you can use your card to pay for it." I said, "I don't know why this had to be such a big deal, thats all you had to say." She then glared at me, I paid for my food and left. The lady who was checking my recepit asked how everything went and I said it was great until we checked out as the lady was so rude and embaressed me. She asked me if I would like to speak to the manager and I said yes. He then came over and I explained to him what happened and the entire time had a smirk on his face and said, "I have had this issue with her (Amy B.) before, I think she just doesn't know how to speak to people." Although he might have believed this to be true, thats not what I wanted to hear and I didn't appreciate him not trying to resolve the situation. I left extremely annoyed and quite frankly want to discontinue my membership because these people represent your company so poorly and I do not wish to be affiliated with that behavior. I respect whatever rules your company has and I expect to be treated as such. I am an adult, not a child.

Costco kirkland pistachios

Just bought a bag of pistachios from Costco. Located in Concord, ca. The brand is Kirkland. As I was eating, I found a maggot inside one of the pistachios that I was about to put in my mouth! The pistachios also tasted a bit weird but I didn't think too much of it until I saw the maggot! Very disturbing! And the horrible part is that I have a few to my 5 yr old before noticing anything.

Costco lamb and rice canned dog food

Item 38680 bar code # [protected].
I was about to feed this product to my dogs when I noticed hard chunks of blue plastic pieces in the food. I bought 3 cases of this food and opened 5 more cans to find the same blue plastic pieces in all the the cans that I opened. Your customer service line is a freaking joke and I want something done about this. I have taken video and picture documentation while opening a few cans for proof. If you guys won't do anything then I am sure media outlets and you tube are the next best thing. I am not looking for handouts of any sorts so please don't take this that way. I am however, very upset that the food that you are providing contains things that could harm my animals.

Costco inexperienced opticians and incorrect glasses and contacts

October, 2016 - present.

Costco optical on 12300 W Dodge Rd, Omaha, NE 68154, USA.

I went in for an eye exam. They didn't have the exact trials because I have toric lenses so they instead gave me something "close enough". After wearing contacts for >10 year and never having an issue, I figured they knew what they were doing.

The lenses were fine, I ordered glasses, and later ordered contacts. Once I got the contacts, I noticed immediately that I could not see - I couldn't wear them even 30 minutes before I had to remove them from eye strain. I went back to Costco optical and they told me to talk to the team that sells contacts.

In speaking to that team, at least 5 times they told me (different representatives, different visits) i) there is no possible way that the optician gave me an incorrect prescription because I am able to see out of my glasses, and ii) my astigmatism increased greatly and couldn't possibly be an error, and iii) I am longer a good match for my brand of contact lenses and have to try something new. They ordered me trials, same prescription, new brand. 2 weeks later they still didn't arrive even though they had on file they were ordered. They placed the order again - 2 weeks later I tried them, exact same issue as the original brand.

Asked for a refund because it had been months and nothing was getting resolved. Every time I stopped in there was a miscommunication with the representative. I would ask the representative what they had on file from my prior visit, and it was what the former representative 'interpreted' (her astigmatism increased, she is no longer a good fit for her current brand of contacts, etc.), and not what I was stating: my prescription is wrong.

I finally got a second eye exam with another optician. No idea what prescription she gave me, but she said "I increased XYZ. No idea why it would make sense to do that, but I am doing it". Of course, same issue.

Again, asked for a refund. Had to come in yet a different day to speak to the manager. Manager insisted she would fix the problem and have me see "Dr. Brown".

Dr. Brown was condescending and didn't even explain what the issue was: they made a mistake and changed the cylinder from -.25 to -1.25!

I ended up just asking them to write me the exact same prescription that I had come to them with, from a different optician NOT associated with Costco, so at the very least I could walk away with a current prescription.

In "making it right", they gave me 8 contacts per eye of 'trials' instead of the 12 contacts per eye that I purchased!

And they did NOT correct my glasses.

June 29th, and my eyes hurt SO BAD - and I just now realized it is from the ridiculous prescription that I got from Costco optical, for which I paid over $200 for these glasses.

The two ladies that originally conducted the eye exams not only rushed through it, but the first actually got upset with the receptionist for scheduling her (during OPEN hours) because she wanted to go home! Dr. Brown was a joke. I am sure he is a nice guy, but I already told them walking in that my old prescription worked - at the very least he could have acknowledged it and just double-checked it. I was only going through the motions at that point because the manager said she would make it right - thought I would at least give it a chance.

I'm going to burn these glasses tomorrow to at least get some satisfaction out of this ridiculous, expensive, and complete waste of time for the >20 visits I had to make because the "right person" wasn't there to help, or the contacts weren't in, etc.

Costco ava at the entrance of the brookhaven costco location

Hello,
I am manager for a business located inside the town Brookhaven shopping center where you all have a location. Today I sent a couple of my employees in to pick up lunch. Upon arriving Ava was at the front. The employees I sent did not have my card however We purchase a good deal of our operational supplies from you all and my employees are in there everyday. She proceed to become extremely rude raising her voice and telling them they could not buy lunch without the card. However multiple businesses in our shopping center send in employees to pick up food from the food court. When this was mentioned she said they only allow that because those businesses give them discounts. I find this very insulting as we spend 1000s with you monthly purchasing operational inventory from you that supplies 4 of our locations. This employee was so rude that we requested to speak with a manager. She proceeded to get on the intercom and yell "I need a manager not a supervisor but a manager" causing a scene and further embarrassing my staff. She yelled and continued to make rude comments even after the manager came out to resolve the situation. We were able to get our lunch thanks to this nice manager but he seemed like he didn't want to say anything at all to the irate employee which gave her freedom to continue to make rude comments even as we were leaving.

Costco tire service

The employee named bridges should be fired! I made an appointment on 6/22 for 5 pm for a tire rotation (Even left work early for it) and I showed up 5 minutes to 5 pm and the employee named bridges told me that he checked their system, even checked my confirmation number and that I was not in the system and that since it was 5 pm, he could not take my car in for a tire rotation. Fyi, the tire center close at 8 pm. He told me to call back on tuesday morning and ask for him and that he would take care of the tire rotation himself that day at 5 pm. I called (After 8 tries) and spoke to bridges himself who told me to come in at 5 pm and that he would take care of the tire rotation himself. I show up at 4:59 pm (Left work early again) and I find out bridges left work at 4 pm. The employee working there, ken, took my car in at 5 pm, but since I didn't have an appointment (Thanks to bridges, who when I asked if I could make an appointment told me I did not need one), it took 3 hours. Out of curiosity, I had ken check my previous confirmation number to see if my original appointment that bridges said I didn't have was in the system. Turns out it was in the system and bridges had lied to my face. Needless to say bridges is an unprofessional, incompetent employee who should be fired. My purpose for this post is to warn other patrons of his antics. Make sure you speak to anyone else there other than bridges because nothing he says can be trusted and he is so incompetent, he doesn't even know how to use their computer system. I filed a complaint with management, but it seemed like a waste of time. They gave me a box of $6.99 cookies to compensate. It was a nice gesture, but that does not change the fact that bridges should be fired!

I had similar experience yesterday at this Bridgewater NJ Costco Tire Center.

I was sent back.
It was Monday - a weekday.
I had chosen weekday because it would be less rush.

During the day, I had called Tire Center for Tire Rotation. I was told, the Tire Center is open till 8:30 and I can come around 5pm for the job get done.
I arrived precisely at 5:10pm at the Tire Center front-desk. I do not know the name of the person on the front-desk. He was so unreasonable. And just did not take my car for consideration. He was so adamant. Even responded me like..."It is 5:13. I have to leave. I cannot get your car out of Garage. etc. etc."

I was so disappointed.
May not visit this Costco in future.
May not renew membership either.

Costco customer service

This evening at about 8:25 I was leaving Costco, as I gave the receipt to the person at the door, the man asked me to open my bag because he needed to check it. I said " what, why do you need to check my bag" then he asked me again and said because I had an oversized bag, I opened it but I told him I always have that bag with me when I shop. In fact it's a small gym bag. I was extremely offended. I have been a member for many years, I shop at Costco at least twice a week and this has never happened.
It was embarrassing and offensive. They did not ask any other customers around me to open their bags.
Then I went to the manager and told him what happened, his response was they can do that but he's never seen it happen before.
I can understand if there was suspicion, probable cause or an employee saw someone put somthing in their bag. But I do not think this was the right thing to do to a paying customer.
I want an answer to this. There was no probable cause to justify this.
I watched the exit after I talked to the manager and they did not ask any other customers to open their bags.
As I have said I go to Costco a few times a week and I have never seen this.
I will contact my lawyer in regards to this if I do not have a response.
You cannot humiliate your customers.

Costco optical department

Hello. My name is Samantha, I was just in your kelowna location, around 7:30pm with my boyfriend who was trying to buy contacts that he needs before he goes away to work for a week. I feel it's important to make you aware that your employee who was working at the time was exceptionally unpleasant, and more importantly unhelpful. We left feeling essentially that she could not have been bothered to help him at all, even though he'd had all the proper prescriptions and eye exam information sent in. It was simply lost and there was nothing she could do about it, other than be plain rude. Because of this I don't think my boyfriend will be buying his contacts from there moving forward.

Costco return service

After being customers to Costco for over ten years, the return experience today really pissed me off and the customer service attitude at Costco really puts me thinking whether it is time to terminate my membership.

I recently purchased a night own security system from local warehouse for $399 plus tax - it kept sending false alarms and therefore I purchased another QSee system online with $50 coupon later on. While returning the night owl system, local warehouse directly deducted the $50 coupon ($349), even though I insisted that the purchase did not apply any coupons. After checking my purchase history, I figured out that the warehouse applied wrong coupon (Qsee) to Night Owl purchase. I had to drive back again to ask them to fix the problem. The same rep refused to acknowledge her mistake first. Afterwards, she found out her mistake and was able to credit back the wrongly applied coupon. When I asked what was the amount credited back to me, she said "I am returning the money you asked for". What a joke with Costco company's culture and customer service - the interaction made me feel that I was the one to blame for making troubles. Should there be at least an apology for the mistake? After all, I tried to help fix the problem but my efforts were considered as trouble. Should customers be treated with sincerity and dignity? It has been a long time since I encounter such a rude and unresponsible response from customer service and I never thought this could happen to Costco.

Costco house made caesar salad

My name is Juan P Torres and I have been a long time costumer of your company and products.
I have recently experience an inconvenience that could have turned fatal if I did not pay close attention to what I was eating. I had purchased a Caesar Salad on the 19th of June to have it at home for lunch. Served It to eat it for lunch on the 20th and wile I was eating it I felt something odd from the salad. Removed it from my mouth and it was a 9" piece of plastic. Obviously I went to it and made sure that it was not a mistake on my behalf when I opened the salad, dressing or croutons. The plastic was from something else that had gotten mix with the salad it self.
I quickly called the store and spoke to make them aware of the problem. Spoke to a manager names Claudia (no last name). She took all the info down and told me to pass by to file a report. Filed the report and someone was suppose to keep in contact with me within 24 to 48 hours. No one did. I called Friday June 23 at 2pm and spoke to another MGR Jason Dias. He told me that someone mite call me again within 24/48 hours. That was yesterday
I don't know if anyone cares about anyone's else well bean or not but the honest truth is that I could have chocked to death in front of my 8 year old. The fact that they are not caring about a concern or complain enrages me. Sure, at the end it's all a what if since nothing seriously happen because I felt in while I was eating it, but what if that could have been my last day. Specially if anything serious had happening in front of my son. I understand that no one cares because it did not happen to them but it happen to me.
I wanted to make you guys aware of what happen and how no one is caring about a simple follow up in regards to this.
I still have the reciete, the claim # and even the proof of the plastic. So far it has been a BIG disappointment from your management in following up in regard to that claim. I would like to make you aware to see if anyone cares about it. Please let me know if you would like this proof or simply care and ask. My number is [protected]. Thank you.

Costco avocados

I always buy a bag of avocados when I go to Costco. They are always large and high quality. However the last bag was terrible. They rotted way before they were ripe!
I suspect they were from a different supplier than usual. You may know of the problem, but in case you don't, thought you should be aware of this. Now I will be afraid to buy avocados from Costco anymore.
The avocados had the sticker from Naturipe, product of Peru 4225.
I would so much appreciate it if you would look into this and maybe find another supplier for your avocados.

Costco water home delivery service is very bad.

For over 2 year I experiencing a bad delivery and scheduling problems. They don't come in their schedules unless I call upper management not even customer service helps. I did complain to Costco before then I received a call from upper management apologized and notify me the route is short on driver ( for that long time) and gave me his number if I experience any issue, guess what, they still don't deliver unless I call Mr: Ernest or text him then I revive a delivery in most cases the next day. To make less headache I even ask them to deliver 10 bottles every time so I don't need a delivery every month. With that said, Mr Ernest is no longer the route manager and Mr Phil is the one but he is not returning call more text.
I disappointed from Costco since I always believed that any thing to get or buy through Costco should be top of the line and best service not in this case you guys still dealing with this company that doesn't respect your customer and by the way I have friends and neighbors in the same town as me experienceing the same issue and did complain as well all they get is a call and apologies and a delivery for one time then back to the same issue again. Never solving the problem.
The water home delivery should be as convenient as you have a monthly schedule of delivery and pick up empty bottles not like now I have 15 empty bottles and when they do deliver they don't notify so we take the bottles out. Bottom line service is BAD and can't wait for Costco to change dealing with this company (DS water service)

Costco tire center

Membership # [protected]
Invoice # [protected]
Yesterday, on 06/21/2017 I got a quote for two Michelin Defender LTX tires, I decided to buy the two tires at this time. I was told that it would be better to come in the next morning to get them put on, therefore I wouldn't have to wait so long. So I showed up at 0700 A.M. on 06/22/2017, my truck was number 9 on the list. So I then waited 2 1/2 to 3 hours and then received a call from the tire center. It was at this point they told me they could not install the two tires because Costco policy says "you can't mix all season with all terrain tires." I understand the safety however 2 1/2 to 3 hours later is not the time to tell the customer this, nor was I informed the day before. Anyways I bought the other two tires. I then received a call that my truck was done. I went to pay for the tires. I was second in line and somehow had to wait an extra 45 mins to 1 hour. I was skipped multiply times and almost completely ignored. I finally had to ask for a manager. He was not there, and they were waiting for my paperwork. It was not until 10 mins after I had to ask again. My paper work was clearly in reach the whole time. I did not get an apology or sorry we wasted your time. Not to mention I was charge to dispose all of the tires and there were two still in the bed of my truck. We have gotten tires, batteries and other supplies for many years. I have never had such horrible customer service to write a complaint.

I would like to see better informed employees and a partial refund for my time and frustration.
