asst. manager used customer credit card and purchased items
I went to family dollar yesterday October 11th 2015. I purchased a Swiss ice tea and got 50.00 cash back at 4:34 pm. I dropped my card in the store, the asst manager waited until 4 hours had gone pass to use my card to purchase some things. I went back looking for my card he was acting suspicious about the entire thing. I asked him to run back the cameras. He was going to until I asked him did he mind me calling the cops, he asked me please not to call the cops, if he gave me the money would I just leave the store. The cop came nothing was settled. I received my card back but he put on gloves when my card was returned to me. He admitted to using my card this morning to the store manager.
unprofessionalism
As I entered Family Dollar yesterday 10/11/15 I heard loud laughter, profanity and personal information. I continued to shop (I thought it was other customers). However, I discovered the noise I heard was coming from the all black staff of Family Dollar. As I proceeded I was waited on by a young black man and I remarked to him “you guys need to be more professional.” He just ignored the remark. He stated “thank you ma’am” and I reply “you’re welcome sir.” Now I’m not sure he wasn’t trying to refer that I was too old in which I’m not, just in my late thirties. Anyway, he didn’t seem to be too concerned. As difficult as it is for young blacks to find employment I was more than concerned and out raged. I also heard several customers state they will look elsewhere to accommodate their needs. Possibly another establishment. The disheartening fact of this is it is a recurring happing at this store. I hope someone will check out this matter soon.
clerk attitude and lack of assistance
During my visit to Family Dollar today, I ask the clerks to help me locate the plastic spray bottles. After much consideration, the clerk at the register said they were by the yellow pole. There are several yellow poles in the large store. Most stores this size have isle numbers. The other clerk that had been standing behind the counter 30 plus minutes refuse to answer me the first time when I ask her to tell me what the register clerk stated. After asking if she found out where the bottles were she replied to me with "huh" instead of "ma'am." In addition to this attitude, there were 12 customers in line waiting for check-out. The lady with Multiple Sclerosis ask if she would open the other register. She said, "No." Apparently, she had no responsibilities at the time. It appeared that she had a problem with my skin color. I will shop at another store in Talladega or out of town.
smoked sausage pkg of 14 in the cooler
The register rings up the Bar S smoked sausage at the cost of $5.50 per unit price but the shelf clearly reads $5.00. I told the clerk that they have not changed the cost on the shelf and I didn't want to pay $5.50. She didn't ask her manager for a cost override either. They knew I was there last week and they don't care about the consumer protection act...

Read full complaintstore heat
Shopping in this store is virtually impossible due to the extreme heat in the store. The store workers are exhausted from the heat and the customers don't stay long in the store because it is just so uncomfortable to try and shop. What is wrong? Is this company so cheap that they can't afford air conditioning for the workers and the customers. This is abuse of the workers. The conditions are horrible. They are running fans behind the counter but it doesn't cool anything and it doesn't help the customer to be comfortable enough to shop in the store. What is wrong? The employees are all doing their best to make a terrible situation better but there is nothing more they can do. They are left helpless by a management that obviously just doesn't care about the customer or the employees that work for them. We are told by the employees that there is some part they have been waiting on for over a couple of months to fix the air. So what is the hold up? Nothing takes that long. One of the employees in the store has asthma and nothing has been done to accommodate her while this part is taking so long to fix the air conditioning. If this is the way that Family Dollar runs their business and treats their employees, I am not going back. It is very hot here, where I live and no one should have to work or shop under these conditions when they don't have to. This is both shameful and ridiculous.

Read full complaint and 6 commentsaccused of shoplifting (black)
My sister and I were charged with stealing because the manager jennifer vargas said we went down the wrong way in the store. She lied under oath in court. She only profiled us because we're black, its sad that you have to follow a store lay out in order to be an innocent shopper. Do not shop here they do not respect black shoppers or black employees~
Read full complaint and 1 commentMisconduct of manager
I was falsely accused of shopping lifting. I have no record and have never ever taken anything at all. The manager Mrs Detria blatantly accused me of this and when I proved her wrong she picked up and item off the counter and accused me of taking this. I got really upset and began to inform her that I didn't appreciate being wrongly accused. At which point she informed me she didn't get paid unless she pressed charges. I waited for the police to come and she pressed charges. What the police didn't not see was her grab a bottle of something and spray it in my face. She also tried to trip me. I will be pleading not guilty and suing your company if something isn't done about this incredibly rude woman.

Family Dollars Ice boxes outside for the public to purchase ice are contaminated with cricket crap and urine and who knows what else. There was a loud putrid odor coming from inside of the ice box as well inside of the store. The female workers knew of the contaminated ice but was willing to sell it to me anyway. Even a female customer in the store knew...
Read full complaintno cashiers always on break
Always a long line.
Only one cashier but you have to wait for her to come to front
Messy messy messy.
This location is right on highway sometimes the first store our visitors see.
I have yet to ever see a manager or asst. When I ask there always gone or on break.
We have a dollar general and a Fred's I will be shopping there.
Tired of the rude and no work ethics of your store.
I have 10 brothers and sisters and lots of family so it's not just me.
Good luck!
Stood in line 20 min. To find out there was only one employee in the store. The "2nd" employee was on break and not in the store. Besides being completely bad customer service, it was putting the life of the cashier in danger who was by herself and an elderly woman. The line was very long and she was doing her best.
Just think that the time you had to wait might have saved your life. What if you were supposed to be in a car wreck and having to wait saved you from it? I always try to see the positive in any negative situation. Perhaps they had a call out that day, and the two employees were left to cover the shift. Perhaps the employee who was on break was over her break and really needed it. While I see your point in the danger, there is no more danger in being alone than there is in a crowd. Just look at the shootings that occur in public places. Most, if not all, are in crowds, not solitary situations. Just be patient, and be blessed. And thank the employees who were there to help you.
Fredericksburg va 22405
The Family Dollar Store on South Taylor Road has no air conditioning. The employees just had fans, and it was extremely hot in the store. This is unhealthy for shoppers, and workers to me. The Health Department should investigate these working conditions. I was informed by an employee that the units were not working.
i had a ride to go to the store somehow the person i was riding with found my card and used it without knowing it until i got home and relized there was a transaction made without me authorizing it and i want my money.
Was your PIN with the card? If so, then there isn't anything the store could have done to stop the transaction. If it is a credit card, report immediately to the credit card company. In either case, use of your card can be stopped instantly as soon as you make the proper report by phone.
A/C is a luxury, not a necessity.

I was the store manager for store 7694 in rushville, ne. I was trying to get the discruit manager to come to my store and help me with my employees my crew, team memebers. I did everything he said and they still won't do there job or anything in that nature. They thought they can come to work and do nothing and still get paid. The discruit manager made me feel like it was my fault that they wasn't doing anything. Made me feel low and everything. I tried my hardest. I keep the store cleaned, well organized and he made me feel this way. Telling me that he don't think I am doing my job right and that we will talk to see if I able to keep my job and etc. I felt like everything he was doing was unethical, unproffessional, discrinminated. I currently quit. I loved working for the company but if he was still going to be the discruit manager then I would no longer continue my employment there. It's been almost two weeks and when I do go in the store there is trash all over, boxes all over the floor, it's very poor managerment now. All I can say I kept that store my top propory. It was always cleaned and now it looks like crap. It wouldn;'t surprise me if that place shutdown. I have a alot of people telling me they are not going back to the store because they way it looks. One even said the way it looks now makes dollar general look good. That is bad. I would just like to say that company losted a hard working, friendly etc person.
I would advise that you do several things. One, take caps lock off before you post. Two, learn to spell. And three, throw away the sour grapes.
