McDonald's birthday party

I'm going crazy if someone doesn't contact me regarding this serious matter.
McDonald's someone need to follow up with me because this is really upsetting and affect me emotionally regarding my son first birthday party at 6875 sand lake rd

It all started, on 10/15/17 i drove to reserved a party on 6875 sandlake rd for today 11/25/17 at 5:30pm. When i get there the cashier told me that the party manager which is cozy or cody wasnt there to reserved my party. She gave me the mcdonal party call line to call or i had the option to go to the website to reserved. I went online to reserved; but the website was down continuously. I was trying for a week calling the party hot line and left voice mail, but nobody ever answer or return my call. Finally, I was able to reserved and paid online and i called the party manager at the location to confirm with him my reservation since the website was acting up. I told him i was going to have 30 children and change the time of the party from 4:30pm to 5:30pm. He told me i was going to have a party host, food, games, music, cake, goodie bags, ice cream, decorations, and character appearance. I ask him if there anything i needed to do. He answer no that he have everything under set up and im set. 11/25/16, i showed up at 5:15pm for my son party. Britney; now the party manager told me that she Is now going home and no employee is available there to help me with my party.

Britney, told me that the previous party manager quit and she had no notice of anything and that I was going to have to handle my son party by myself. They was no decoration, nothing set up. NOTHING. I was humiliated and I’m emotionally affected by the way Britney the party manager handle my son party. I end up paid over 525 dollars for a party that was not turn the way planned. Everything I paid for was not delivered and I need my money back. I had over 30 children and over 25 adult and I was embarrassed most importantly it was my son first birthday and I trusted McDonald to deliver what I reserved and paid for. This really affect me mentally and I need someone to contact me as soon as possible. This is very disappointed. This shoul not have turn out like that.

Myself and my family members offered to help me do anything to make the party successful since all my guest was already there, but she was not being coorporated with us. All I want was for my son to have a party host that will host and have the party going and fun and that was imposible. The time that Britney took to argue and fussing she could've done the party.

Good luck. McDonald's is now too big to care about customer service. If you can't reach them by phone and don't get your money back quickly, contact an attorney for assistance, or consider suing them in small claims court.

McDonald's caramel mocha

Again...I am sending in to complain about the McDonalds in Fitzgerald, GA. Went by this morning to get a large hot caramel mocha and again the machine is cleaning. Why would you clean the machine at 7am? I mean that is when most people go to McDonalds for breakfast. A week ago I had to get my money back due to the machine just stopped working. The machine is either not working or cleaning all the time. Poor Management!

It's possible that something happened that required the machine to be cleaned at that time (possibly a malfunction).

McDonald's Charged 3 times for the order by machine

I had ordered food at McDonald's near the Les Sablons metropolitan station, on Avenue Charles de Gaulle, Paris on Monday 20th, Nov. at 4:36pm using the automatic machine and the total was € 16.40. The machine declined my Citibank Card 4386xxxxxxxx6975 and I went to the serving station for payment finally. I now find that my card has been charged "Three" times instead of once for € 16.40 x 3 = € 59.20 ! Please reverse the charge for extra € 32.80 to my Citibank Card urgently and oblige. Thanks

McDonald's slow, rude, food subpar

We went to the McDonald's on Turner Hill in Lithonia/Stone Mountain. The woman on the register was professional, nice. We were ticket 322. The order was a steak egg bagel, sausage egg mcmuffin. It took about 17 minutes to get our full order. The woman fulfilling the orders was plain mean.

We asked for an upgrade to large on the orange juice. She made me feel like she was punishing me for not ordering at the beginning. "You are going to have to wait for that." She proceeded to get other orders ready. I didnt have a problem waiting, but her attitude was abrasive, cold, unfriendly. We waited again. We noticed we didn't have the jelly, or the peppermint mocha. We asked for that, no apologies, she just proceeded to make the mocha. She handed the peppermint mocha in silence. My husband asked for the orange juice. She finally prepares that. Hands it to him, again, silence. She was overwhelmed, but, a quick sorry for your wait, or a thank you would have gone a long way.

I understand being busy, but we waited a total of 30 minutes for a simple order. The staff was not accommodating. You could tell this was their normal way of handling the customers. It was backed up. Obvious there needs to be more staff.

We get to the car, I tasted the orange juice and could literally taste the tap water in that juice. The juice had no ice in it, but was completely watered down. My egg yoke was runny in the sausage mcmuffin. I have NEVER had McDonald's food taste this bad. I will never eat here again. Ever.

This McDonald's is not a good representation for your company. The habit of treating customers bad is not a good look.

McDonald's really bad customer service.

I went through the drive thru tonight and ordered 3 McDoubles plain. I went to the first window, paid, and proceeded to the second window. The lady at the second window started to hand me a coffee. I said it was not mine. She asked what I gad, when I told her she said I needed to order at the menu and slammed the window in my face. So somewhere between window 1 and 2 they lost my order. Free knocking on the window for a few minutes she opened it. I told her I already ordered and paid showed her my receipt. She shut the window walked the anothe lady. After about another 5 minuets she opens the window to tell me that I am backing up the drive thru and other people are waiting for their orders and that I needed to park as if this was all somehow my fault. Already annoyed and insulted at this point I refused to move until I got my food. She turns back to her manager and said "this stupid [censor] refused to park". Which the manager replies "what a [censor]". With the window wide open. I was very polite up until the squared scolding my like a child because their drive thru was backed up. Where did good customer service go?

McDonald's new coffee commercial

The new McCafe coffee commercial showing people being arrogant causing others to wait while they finish their coffee is not amusing because this is actually happening at your restaurants. Your service is much slower since you've added the specialty coffees. To create a commercial that accentuates this problem does not make me want to go to McDonalds.

McDonald's I am complaining about a coffee that was made unsafe.

On November 3rd 2017 at 10:40 a.m. I went to McDonald's drive-thru in the city of Torrance store number 7411 address 19009 Hawthorne Boulevard Torrance California 90533. I order two egg sausage McMuffins and one iced coffee. And on my iced coffee there was a small earring I was drinking my coffee and almost choked on the earring. It was unsafe and I am upset.

McDonald's mcdonald's store #15834 management - racist unethical behavior!

I ordered my food and it took 1.25 hours for the order to come out only to find that the order was incomplete 3 times. I asked for a refund and the sales associate didn't have paper for the printer. The night shift manager Matai (?) said that she didn't have time. I said, "do your job". The man that I thought was the manager, which I called "Senor", did get the register paper. The manager then proceeded to said "I'm not your SLAVE". I then asked for the district managers name and she refused because didn't have time. I went to the drive thru to the information and told her that I didn't care for her racist comment. She said that by calling him "Senor" that I was being racist because he spoke English. I said that I speak both Spanish & English and rejected her pulling the race card and let the corporate office know. I requested the name and number of this stores District Manager but even the corporate office refused to offer it up because they have a process...

The unfortunate point to this is that I've been a loyal McDonalds customer for over 40 years. At this point their is no apology that can be given by McDonald's store, district, or corporation office that will ever overcome being called a racist.in my career, I have worked 10's of thousands of customers and staff and I've never had the race card pulled out.

I forgot to mention that it took another half an hour to get the second go of food and it still wasn't right so they were going to try a 3rd time at which point I requested a refund.

Well today we stopped by for food for him and in a hurry we went to drive thru - and as usual they got it wrong - we recieved no straw for his drink! Every time there's no napkins no straw or order isn't way we order it!
We will never stop at any mcdonald's again!
But wanted you to know why we stopped spending $ at your "restaurant"?
Goodbye.

McDonald's cappuccino

Ordered iced cappuccino was given hot. Asked for iced and they did not make new drink they dumped hot into cold cup and added little ice. It was disgusting. I still never got iced cappuccino. I ended up with warm cappaccino in cold cup. For the price I should have gotten it remade the right way and gotten my iced cappaccino instead of the warm mess I had to have. Threw it out because it was GROSS. So I will not be going to your gross McDonald's anytime soon.

McDonald's the service at the mcdonald's in blakely, ga., is the worst i've ever seen in my 43 years of existence.

Every time that I go there, they're out of what I order, the ice cream - milkshake machine is out of order, i'm sent to the designated parking spot for the drive thru and today they were out of coca-cola. I take full responsibility. It's my fault for thinking things or going to change, today's the day they're going to get it right. Lmao. I shouldn't even be thinking about a mcdonald's, but here I am complaining about one. I'm sorry for taking good service for granted and not even thinking about that. That was my last big mac. I'm laughing so hard right now. I really can't believe i'm giving you this much of my time, being I wasted so much of of it at your drive thru. I guess it hardees from now on and it's 20 minutes away. Thats about the time spent getting it right at mcdonald's. It all works out in the end.

McDonald's mcdonald's

Was overcharged for quarter pounder with cheese. Had coupon in pocket from 10/22/17 showing price of $4.09 plus tax. They told me the price was $4.49 plus tax. I asked when the price was raised, was told "a long time ago -
months" by the cashier and " a long time before 10/22/17" by the manager.
Both lied. I caught them at lying and because of that I was refused service.
Apparently McDonald's employees are taught to lie. This behavior is not to
be tolerated and will go public if I do not hear from McDonalds that these
employees have been warned about lying, and that upper management agrees to cease forcing their employees to lie to their customers.

McDonald's ice cream

We go to Mcdonalds at least twice a week, and ALWAYS purchase an ice cream cone. I do remember that a few years ago McDonald's tried using this "new" ice cream, and had to go back to the original.

The people at this Tomball, Tx, location are very friendly - most especially a young man named Skye, and we would not like to have to find another favorite place to go.

McDonald's special request order

On thursday, november 2 at the carle place, new york location, I placed a special request order for your new product line buttermilk crispy chicken tenders. I have ordered them earlier in the week from the glen cove, new york location. My first experience was so positive that I decided to order it again the same way (Fresh made) and in fact, told another family member how impressed I was with the new tenders.

Upon my order, the cashier indicated that it would take 7 minutes for them to be made, upon which I said "no problem." I paid for the items, then proceeded to the next window thinking I would need to move the car out of traffic to wait for my order. To my surprise, what appeared as the manager on duty handed me the order. I did again asked if they were made fresh, which she replied "yes." I drove away to find that my order was not delivered as requested. The item must have been cooked earlier and then re-cooked as it appeared twice cooked, dark in nature and tough to the taste.

I am very disappointed, as the carle place location is in my neighborhood and once I frequent often. If I ask for a special request, I expect it to be delivered as ordered. My disappointment is also that the manager on duty provided the customer with false information. I have attached several photos: 1. Receipt and 2. Appearance of item. I would not expect food to be delivered as it was and in particular, requested as a special order. I do expect a refund for a least the item purchase and an incentive to regain my confidence in your product.

McDonald's employment

To whom it may concern,
My name is Jon ******* my son ******* has been employed at our Pontiac Illinois McDonalds location for over six months now. He has enjoyed the challenges given to him through his time with the company as well as the rewards. The reason I am writing today is due to the way he has been treated by the shift managers and the store manager. Please allow me to describe my son to you as a highly functioning young man, who suffers from some mental disabilities, witch forces him to be in special classes curtailed to his needs, and in a smaller structure to allow more one on one time. As you can imagine when he was hired it was the highlight of his life, in a sense it was a turning point in his life. He faced many situations where he felt as though he was singled out and even looked past for opportunity to learn new responsibilities at work because he was told he was not fast enough, good enough etc. He never complained to any management however continued to seek new experiences when they became available . He was even physically threatened and mildly assaulted numerous times but still continued to come to work and try his best, and never complain. The reason I am writing you today is because due to his disability it is difficult for him to make friends since he is a bit socially unsure of himself. he has been suspended from his job for almost two weeks now. I finally called assuming it was something bad he had done and he has been getting no response. I was told it was because he was staring at a girl and asked for her snap chat. I was in disbelief and I questioned the topic a bit more and was told he has made other crew members feel uncomfortable before. I cant believe that a company as large as McDonalds does not coach there managers better then this when dealing with a person protected by the A.D.A. I was informed that someone will get in contact with him tomorrow for his return to work date. He will not be returning to that location and I will be informing everyone I know of the way he was treated while employed with the organization. I have yet to decide if I will be taking this matter any further but I would appreciate if someone could reach out to me at the address, phone number or email I will provide at the bottom of this letter.
Sincerely,

McDonald's buttermilk chicken tenders

I was at our local McDonald's on North Ave. in Sheboygan WI at about 4:40 today November 1st. I ordered thru the drive up a 10 piece buttermilk tenders and fries. It was about $10 for the tenders which I'm guessing is the highest ticket item on the menu. Got home 5 minutes later and realized that the order had been sitting at the restaurant for quite awhile. Several of the pieces (or ends) were very very small. Looked like they were the end of a batch cooked earlier in the day and thrown in to make the count of ten pieces. The chicken was very grisly - most were inedible. I am so upset with paying that price for something so inferior in quality. Please make this right and refund my order for $11.63. The fries were awful too. The entire order appeared to be left overs.

I have made the mistake of eating at many fast food restaurants in Wisconsin. Sounds like you had a fair to good experience compared to most. The best thing you could do in move out of Wisconsin and forget about it. That's what I did..
