McDonald's order messed up

Last April we went to this McDonalds and part of our order was two fish sandwiches. We arrived home opened our food to eat and there was no fish on our sandwiches. We called, complained, and they offered to give us two more fish sandwiches...everyone else had finished their meals - WHY BOTHER. So, we avoided this drive-thru restaurant (until today, MISTAKE #2!).
My son wasn't feeling well and I ordered him a Southern Style Chicken MEAL to get him fries (which he was craving since he had been sick) and he agreed to eat some chicken to have something on his stomach. I also order two Big Macs.
Obviously, we got home, unpacked, NO FRIES. I called and they offered to give us order of fries however, the drive and the time really wasn't worth it for two dollars worth of fries - IT WAS WORTH IT WHEN I WAS THERE! I called and the lady was nice...just as the last lady was when I complained about the fish sandwiches. I avoid Edgewood McDonalds so much I couldn't even ask them to take my name and information as I really really really don't ever want to go back there. It's unfortunate that I only live a few miles from there but I drive several additional miles to go to another facility. I WISH THEY WOULD SIMPLY GET THE ORDER RIGHT?!?! I don't ask for much!

Why should I check my order. They should get it right, and I don't make mistakes ever because I am cautious. As for when when my son makes mistakes I smack him and tell him how stupid he is. I only wish that the employees were seven years old as well so I could do the same to them.

"Maybe you can check your order before you leave...odds are you are not the only people they are serving and they are human and make mistakes " And maybe you can get off your high horse and stop allow this site be what it's supposed to be.. A consumer complaint site. Not a site where members attack the posters like a pack of hyenas.

McDonald's terrble serive, terrible food.

Hello There! I WAS a regular customer at the Douglastown McDonalds seeing that I am an employee at the mall just steps away. After my shift at work my boyfriend, myself and our two little girls usually go threw the drivethu honestly I don't think theres ever been a time they haven't made a mistake! Every single time we go thu we always end up with a mistake. I have celliac which means I can't eat flour so I purposly ask for a burger without the bun & I always repeat it to make sure they understand.. & everytime I end up having a burger on a bun and the [censored]tty thing is I can't remove the patty off the bun, and eat it cause its contamminated my meat can't even touch bread.. soo numourous times I had to go back in & get them to do it right.. They are never nice, most of them act like they are made to work there. I noticed some of the employees are confused and very puzzled! They never smile, no nothing.. not even a "Thanks". After having sooo many mistakes with the Drive Thru we resorted to going in and ordering so we could make sure things were right.. They got it right yes, most of the time.. but the customer serviice is terrible half of them don't even know what there doing.. After putting up with wrong orders & terrible service my boyfriend and I have fount a new place to go to grab foood.. They offer gluten free buns, and they are happy to see us! After everything we went through I was hoping that maybe we could at least get a free meal or something.. maybe we could give them a second chance.. If not thats ok too, I just want to let the company know what we've been through so hopefully they can make some changes sooo others don't have to go through what we went through. Thank you for your time.. Amanda Marsh

McDonald's happy meal

I take my son to McDonald's after football practice every week but upon arriving I order my sons happy meal but with no yogart because he can't eat dairy other McDonald's will give him the small bag of fries and no yogart. This day I go in and the employee told me that the store manager said that I can't change the meal that I have to take the yogart and pay extra for fries. Now for the sake of a small fry they have lost my business for life. It is a medial reason my son don't get yogart not choice I think it is disgraciful that a store can continue to be in business and just not care about their consumers. (The employee agreed with me)

McDonald's older children bullying toddlers

I live in Pittsburgh, PA and just recently I took my 3 year old to a McDonald's in Shaler, PA which is about a 5 minute drive. While we were there in the play area, there were 4 boys between the ages of 10 -13 years old that were terrorizing my child. I became angry because the parents did nothing to correct their children. When I yelled at one of them(the youngest about ten) he started to cry and asked him to stop the mother yelled at me. She then informed me that they were only terrorizing my son because my son bit one of them. My son is three and three year old's bite when they don't get what they want. I felt like biting them but I would never touch some one's child. The play area is very poorly designed, that once children are on top in the play area there is a partial wall that hangs down and blocks the view of the children playing. I am angry because older children run rampant in the play area and management will not do anything to stop it from happening. This had happened once before and now I refuse to go back to that ### hole ever again. To see a small child being bullied is horrible beyond words, but when management will do nothing to prevent it is beyond horrible.

The two posters above me obviously have no children of their own. Three year old's bite. It is a developmental stage for them since they can't communicate what they want properly. A ten year old can. I admit I should not have used profanity towards a child, but these kids were terrorizing my three year old for being a three year old.

Actually, the containers of sauce cost more than the nuggets, so I've heard from my manager. Apparently, each nugget is only worth about 6c while each little cup of sauce is worth 10c, so each customer gets up to 4 for free, then pay for the rest. :p.

I'm surprised no one complains for paying $2.79 for a 6 piece nugget, while a ten piece is $3.99, and a 20 piece is $4.99, that seems like a bigger ripoff.

Maybe three year old children still do bite for attention, but they usually stop that behavior before three years of age. If your son is biting other children he should be removed from the play area until he can play fair. While an older child would tell their parents if some three year old is biting them a ten year old does not think of this solution, instead they defend themselves. Three or not your child should be removed from the playground if he is biting other children.

So recently, McDonalds introduced yogurt into their Happy Meals. Alright, had no problem with this. It's good to offer a nutritous substitute to fries, after all. Now, I have a small appetite, so I normally get a Happy meal, rather than the adult-sized equivalent. I'm also lactose intolerant (and not the 'I get gas in four hours' kind, the 'I vomit as soon...

McDonald's religious cult

Mcdonalds is now a religous cult! This is the third mcdonalds I have been to where the employees "bless you", and they even have it on the reciepts!

How dare they! What right do they have to think it is their job to interfere with my religous beliefs or my personal spiritual life?! This is insolent, rude, invasive, highly inappropriate, and extremely unprofessional!

It is not thier job to be spouting any kind of religous crap to me, much less blessing me or my day!
I will not tolerate a fry jockey posing as my religous overseer!

I will never set foot in any mcdonalds cult establishment ever again!

Burger king now gets all of my business!

I agree with the poster, its not ANY business of ANY kind of business to be preaching anything religious to thier customers. Its their business to sell food, NOTHING ELSE. Its a flagrant violation of customer rights to be subjected to such crap.

I for one NEVER do business with any company or business who spouts any kind of intolerant garbage, along with thinking they have the right to preach religion!

And for the ### Potompub@aol.com, exactly HOW do you tell someone is gay? What the hell business is it of yours what anybody does in thier personal life? This just goes to show you how these religious people are nothing but bigots, racists, and hate-mongers. They will lie, cheat, and steal you blind, then stab you in the back! But they LOOOVE to flaunt thier stupidty and ignorance at every chance they get!

If these people want to practice religion, then they need to go into the ministry or whatever cult they are interested in. They have no business harassing customers with thier treachery.

Yes, and it's typically followed by everyone in the room responding "Bless you"... I also hope the original poster realizes that a lot of McDonald's are franchised out. Due to private ownership they have the same menu items, but not necessarily the same prices or policies. Maybe it's a personal policy? Not sure, but just a thought.

McDonald's very bad service and shameless working staff at the mcdonald, s restaurant

Hi,
I have had very bad experiences at the mcdonald's .I stay in bangalore. This complaint is regarding the branch of
mcdonald's in banashankari 2nd stage, opposite BDA complex which opened somewhere in mid 2011.
I ordered a medium mcchicken meal and asked for thumps up instead of coke. The dirty minded people
at the restaurant gave me a regular meal with coke. One more instance is that when i asked one girl (working staff) to give me some tissue papers, she replied saying that "papers are there you can go and collect them".
I have never ever seen such dirty working staff in my whole life anywhere. I think mcdonald guys dont care for customer satisfaction.

McDonald's laziness from mcdonald's rude employees

On Sunday, January 8th, 2012, I went into Radioshack in Houston, Texas, across from Mcdonalds to purchase DVD-r disc but I had questions. When I walked in, I saw 3 employees standing around in conversation and another in normal clothes sitting on the counter. When I asked for assistance, one of the employees, , came over and gave me complete attitude for interrupting the conversation she was having with her friends. She constantly rushed me and once I asked her the question, she went over to another employee and said “he needs your help, ” basically brushing me off.

I stood there for another 3 minutes waiting but they went back to their conversations, so I decided to purchase something else and when I got to the register, she snatched my item from my hands and completely lacked courtesy. I’ve been an consumer of Radioshack for some years and never will I again step foot in that particular one unless some disciplinary actions are made to correct the incompetence apparently abrupt there.

Please I need somebody help me with this, I was working at this McDonald and I just got fired because I got sick… This is stupid, I can’t understand what’s going on with people, …… Well I went to the doctor and the doctor told to the nurse that call my job (McDonald) because I wasn’t able to work, and when she called the supervisor told to the nurse that if I was not there in 15 minutes I will lose my job. Now I want somebody to explain this to me how you can get fired because you got sick, just wanna say I will take this seriously because we are not slaves, , , , we live in United States of America a free country … If I gotta talk to the congress or the white house I will …..

McDonald's mcdonald's water tasted bad with chlorine

Mcdonalds head office: it was a fine day when my girlfriend and I decided to have breakfast in a nearest mcdonald’s branch. We ordered the usual breakfast meal and eat while having conversation. It was my first time to eat in that particular mcdonald’s branch. After having meal there was some hint taste of coffee in my mouth and got thirsty to ask for water in a cup over the counter. Mcdonald’s provides a clear cup of water with ice and for being thirsty, water was quickly drunk. The water tasted and felt different as anyone would swallow, as substance pass through the throat, it felt hot with a strong scent of chlorine followed with an awful bitter taste.

Most customers reacted on how the water tasted and quoted similar detailed words, also, unhappy on how the situation was handled from mcdonald’s point of view. It was the first and would be my last to eat at mcdonald’s who serves water with sanitizer and change my impression and experience as a customer.
I was traumatized for what had happened. I would do whatever it takes to encourage my relatives and friends not to try mcdonalds that serves toxic chlorinated water. Hence, the owner wanted to pacify the situation by meeting in a mall restaurant, owner was not sincere in being apologetic. Instead, he was rude and displayed words of alligations in a raising voice.

We kept coordinating and assured us movement on the case. Year is already 2012, untill now we had never recieve any update as promised, and have decided to elevate my complain by escalating the matter to mcdonalds international.

Mcdonald’s had always been my most favorite fast food since I was young. It saddens me personally to know that mcdonalds a renowned reputation, are being wreck by a mere branch in the philippines, because of the substandard service and sanitation control. We hope to resolve this issue and have proper closure between two parties as coordinated to mcdonalds head office to handling the situation accordingly.
