KFC Refund

Good Day,

I have raised my complaint the same day when the transaction occured.

I have a case number CAS-617858-G7J5G3 YUM:[protected] assigned on the 31st Jan 2021.

I am getting no pleasure out of KFC customer and neither from the Head Office as the head office is saying that they cannot assist me as the case must be resolved from the customer care.

On friday the 5 Feb 2021 I received an email From Lebogan

Good day Washeema

I made a follow up on your refund and Finance has assigned it to an agent so it will be processed into your account soon enough, I hope. I really do apologize for the inconvenience caused.

Kind Regards

Until today I have not received my refund. The proof of payment was sent to them showing them that it went off from my account twice.

I have been calling everyday once or twice from my cellphone to get feedback with no pleasure from the KFC team.

Regards
Washeema Sheldon

Desired outcome: I want my money refunded into my account and all the airtime that I called out trying to get my own money out of the KFC team.

KFC Service - Mattoon, IL store

Ordered 4 tenders and a pint of slaw. Paid and received 4 tenders. Told server I ordered slaw. He said it was in the bag. Showed him it was not. He handed me a single serve container. I said "this is not a pint". He shrugged and handed me a pint. Weirdest encounter.

Desired outcome: Supervise your help!

Kfc in ottumwa Iowa is by far the [censored]tiest place to ever work. And I've worked a lot of places. I'm not sure which idiot thought it'd be a good idea to let a couple run the store but they clearly have no idea what goes on. There are no set rules for kfc they let their workers do whatever they please and they let them bully each other for the fun of it. The...

KFC Food purchase and delivery.

Store location 2970 Alta Vista. Ottawa. No one answers phones. Food is 1 hour 50 minutes late. Took 7 calls to [protected]. They play pass the buck. Got told hold we will contact the store on hold for 20 minutes. Call back. Told we can email them and they'll deliver as soon as they can. Like I'll sit in the hallways for 3 hours. I sat there for 2 hours already so the driver would not have to come up to my unit. Now I'm getting a refund in 5 days. This is absurd. It's unacceptable.

Desired outcome: Refund

KFC Service attitude/ pensioner consideration

To whom it may concern. Re: SA [protected]

Date: 28/01/ 2021 Time: 13h48

I entered the KFC Malmesbury with two lines in operation, orders before I had entered the KFC premises had been taken then there was a problem with the order after about 10 minutes the problem was resolved, we moved down one
space, a lady place her order with the Cashier, we waited another ten minutes for her order to arrive, although the Queue next to our queue was moving quite quickly. orders there was a bit of a wait, but not long.
The Lady in my queue got her order and left. The Gentleman who was in front of me moved forward.
Suddenly our till was closed. Marinda D - a Supervisor was trying to register a lady on the computer via the Biometrics device. This episode went on for a about 10 minutes. The Gentleman in front suddenly got assisted by the only till in operation, he placed his order and moved back, I moved forward into " 1st" in the closed down Till line, Marinda D and the employee still trying to the Biometrics to work, eventually plugging in at the back of the Till. The queue next to me was moving forward with orders being placed. The Cashier totaling ignoring "our queue", until a lady behind the counter suggested to the Cashier that this Cashier assist us with our orders, at first the Cashier seem too ignore our queue, then suddenly turned to me to take my order. Then the people were asked to form one queue.
Marinda D - Supervisor ( I think) The print too fine to read, the name was large. She should have approached our queue, and informed us what was going on, or that She was closing down the Till point, or simply replace the Cashier with another.
As a pensioner standing for such long period - all chairs had been removed. if Kentucky Friend Chicken was concerned about the Safety of their customers because of Covid 19, THEN ? Would have placed an employee at the Door checking Temperatures like other Retail outlets, and ensuring people sanitize their hands.
Pity there is only one Kentucky Fried Chicken in Malmesbury.
Apologies ? for inconsiderate staff and/ or bad attitude. Unacceptable.
Warm regards,
Peter Levers

Desired outcome: Sort out the Unwanted Issues and attitude towards customer.

The moment walked to do an Uber Eats Pick-up right in the back of the kitchen there were only two people working there yesterday and the manager was outside his truck talking on the phone. They were out of the Honey BBQ, Nothing was ready at the time I entered the restaurant. There were not enough people, very poor service; something needs to change!

I was just at the KFC in Orleans on trim road and ordered my food like I do or did this week and I couldn't get my food because I was paying cash I find this very ridiculous not accepting cash when they did last week and I sure hope to get compensated for this problem because I sure do like eating at KFC.

KFC Crispy colonel sandwich

I love this sandwich but for the past to visits on New Year's Eve and today the chicken was hard like a crouton. They are not watching their hold times. I tried to call the store and no one answered the phone. I do wish to be contacted. Also the one in midfield always says the chicken is frozen after 7pm. Constantly out of product and also they have horrible attitudes in the one in midfield. Hueytown is at least pleasant

Desired outcome: Replacement order requested

For months now, the price listed for a 2 piece fill up is five dollars on the drive thru menu board. They charge 5.49 and do not care about the difference at the window. They blame the customer for not adding the tax. Yet, the tax in pennsylvania is 6% which comes out to total of 5.30. They refuse to acknowledge this math. Imo, I dont believe the staff...
