Store # 156 9870 W Broad St, Glen Allen, VA 23060 Been visiting this store for 20+ years. Simply asked an employee for a question. She became hostile and very rude. I walked away and she wouldn't stop insulting me. I asked for her name and she refused to give it to me. Then she rushes to the store manager to "report" me before I can get to him to discu...

Dollar Tree complaint regarding unprofessional conduct of employee at dollar tree fairview

I am writing to express my disappointment and frustration regarding an unpleasant experience I had at your Dollar Tree store located at 153 Bergen Blvd, Fairview, NJ 07022. On June 4, 2023, at approximately 9:40 AM, I encountered an employee who exhibited unprofessional behavior, which not only left a negative impression but also reflects poorly on your establishment.

Upon my arrival at the Dollar Tree Fairview, I was met by an employee stationed at the entrance, who informed me that the store was closed and I could not enter. When I inquired about the reason for the early closure, I was told, "We have the right to close as early as we want." The employee made no attempt to provide any explanation or assistance regarding the situation.

Moreover, when I politely requested the employee's name for future reference, I was met with a disrespectful response. She replied with, "Figure it out and have a nice life." This type of dismissive and unhelpful attitude is not only discourteous but completely unprofessional. As a customer, I believe that such behavior is unacceptable and undermines the positive shopping experience that Dollar Tree should strive to provide.

To make matters worse, this was not an isolated incident. I experienced the exact same situation on the previous day as well. These repeated occurrences contribute to a pattern of poor customer service and reflect negatively on Dollar Tree as a whole. I can assure you that I am not the only customer affected by this issue, and it is undoubtedly costing your store potential sales and damaging your reputation.

I urge you to take this complaint seriously and address the issue promptly. I kindly request that appropriate disciplinary action be taken against the employee responsible for her unprofessional behavior. Additionally, I suggest conducting proper training programs for all employees at the Dollar Tree Fairview location to ensure they understand the importance of providing excellent customer service and representing the Dollar Tree brand positively.

As a loyal customer, I believe in the value and affordability that Dollar Tree offers, but incidents like these make me reconsider whether I should continue to patronize your store. I genuinely hope that you will take the necessary steps to rectify this situation and restore my faith in your establishment.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you soon regarding the actions taken to address this complaint.

This store is almost unstoppable. Boxes fill the aisles while the shelves have empty spots. People running into the boxes, or having to step over them. Not only are you losing money because your inventory is closed up in boxes, but it’s a safety issue! We shop at many of the stores, but this one is by far the worst. The manager also has an attitude and berates customers in the store. I’ve heard it more than once.

On May 6, we had a beautiful weeeing at goldwater Lake in Prescott, AZ. We spent a huge amount of money on decoration, plates, glasses, etc, etc. More that one person was involved in purchasing.

On Saturday 5/27/2023 I was at the Dollartree located at 2445 International Boulevard, Oakland, CA 94601. I paid for my items w/employee Heather Mclaughlin. Unfortunately she inappropriately said something about me to one of my relatives and I very calmly told her to stay out of my business.

Dollar Tree Manager Jody

I proceed into the dollar store. I grab what I need and began to go to the cashier (Tenisha). Manager Jody begins to question me on what I'm going to do with what I have, which was broom sticks. I told her it was for my garden as stakes with wire down the plant beds. She began to have a Karen-like attitude with me. She also was questioning me like an officer. I didn't like it at all. Everybody better watch out for the Dollar store police. To solve her issue, She needs to keep stock organized and have extra stock if something were to run out. Stay ready so you don't have to get ready.

Desired outcome: She needs to work on her social skills. She also needs to mind her own business.

Dollar Tree Merchandise refunds

On 5/20/23, I purchased some household items for a local non-profit. When I brought some items back for a refund, I was told by the manager/assistant manager that "chemical" items could not be returned for a refund, but only be exchanged. I had about 8-10 items to return, but she never really looked in the bag to see what was being returned. The only thing that might be considered "chemical" were some disinfectant wipes.

Desired outcome: I would like to get a refund (on the debit card I used) for the merchandise I wanted to return

Dollar Tree Customer service

Purchased balloons at store in Newton, NJ; store #7913

Asked for 3 specific colors, was told very rudely to find those colors in a large bunch of balloons that were already inflated. 2 balloons accidentally came loose from where the bunch was and I was rudely told to return them to where the others were. After balloons were purchased, I asked if there was a small holder I can use to hold balloons so the wouldn’t fly away. This same employee, who I believe is the manager said “we’re not a party store”

Extremely rude staff!

Desired outcome: I’d appreciate a response

Dollar Tree Housekeeping

May 16, 2023 12:15pm

Visited your store and was greeted with this (see photos attached). I certainly understand that restocking must happen, but this should not violate any safety rules, which of course I am certain you must have and abide by.

Yes, they all were diligently working at stocking product, but none seem to understand that this is not only a risk to them but to any patron.

If this is not included in your policy then it should and if it is, then it needs to be reinforced.

Dollar Tree Italian ice

I've been a regular customer at the local Dollar Tree in Newport News, VA. I'm lactose intolerant so I found icees. When I asked in the past if I could order, I was told No. : so I began purchasing as many as possible when they were stocked. I'm preparing for cataract surgery so I must depend on someone else (which makes it easier, when I can buy in bulk) I contacted the store Monday the lady stated she'd received stock on Thursday and put aside items in the freezer. I asked how many available, she said60. We agreed my neighbors would be by to purchase: however, I called before they went to let the store know my neighbors would be there, but the lady stated she only had 40 items. I stated I wanted them and she said yes, I was a regular. My neighbors called extremely upset stating no one would check in the rear of the store, they refused to acknowledge anything of the items to be purchased. I was only permitted10 and told me they didn't care who I called to complain they weren't concerned. (I've been a regular, plus my neighbors have purchased for me since at present I can't drive.) I called this morning and was told items couldn't be held. I didn't know until I called but the females let me know they didn't care how I was affected as a customer. I've attempted to order but denied. I don't understand. A sale is a sale.

Desired outcome: If there's a limit,it should be poted.Also,an apology bc they embarrassed my neighbors attempting to help me.

Dollar Tree Cashier smelling like marijuana and under the influence

The cashier's name is Tashaun and he works at the store in Nassau Park in New Jersey. I happened to pass by him several times during the course of my shopping and every time I did so a heavy odor would linger around him but i didn't want to assume that it was in fact marijuana until he himself accidentally said to another coworker that he was a little high from earlier in the day. I've no clue how truthful he was being about that because the smell coming off of him was rather strong, this happened on 5/10/23 at around 6pm or so.

Desired outcome: He needs to either be fired or reprimanded heavily going forward.

Just looked this up and found a website "https://drugtestingdepot.com/does-dollar-tree-drug-test/", where it states that employees could be disciplined or terminated if they report to work under the influence not to mention it's probably unwise to allow someone who openly decides to come to work while impaired to work with cash in case they accidentally give out the wrong amounts.

I was heckled and embarrassed as a whole when checking out. I'd gotten a ride to pick up 3 items I needed to finish a gift for my mother. It was a bit day and I had a sprite in the bottle that was way past half gone that I put in the basket to free my hand to get these products. In line once it wasy turn and before this lady (Linda) could swipe I said "oh...
