Every morning there is a gentleman that is very rude and makes us wait a very long time and won't do more than two orders. We always come from work on our break with 3 separate orders and we get attitude and are. Made to sit and are late coming back to work something needs to be done, please. I've been coming there for three years and every time thi...

I placed an order and when I got to resturant bmobile app stated mcdonalds was having issues and store was closed when clearly store was opened. So I left never got my food, I was home for about 30 min when I got an email about my mobile order. The order was taken out of my card but never got the food. So I would just prefer a refund as I dont have any other time to go back for the food in the morning.

McDonald's Pokémon Promotion

My Mc Donald's Pokémon Experience

I had seen a promotion add information on Google for Mc Donald's Pokémon cards. In this add it says you would be able to purchase the packs of cards for 1.99 a pack or there would be 1 package of inside a happy meal. I had like this that you could purchase them without the meal not having to buy fast food for this month to get these cards on their limited 30-day release. Many years ago, Burger King did a Pokémon promotion and it was there ruling you had to get a happy meal to receive the Pokémon promotion. With this being said at least you knew going the rule was purchase of a happy meal was in your future to receive the Pokémon toy. I had sent the promotional add to my brother-in-law to view. Both of our family's had 2 children each involved in Pokémon card collecting and tournament play over twenty years ago. My grandchildren now where always interested in looking at the collection cards and how to play the card game with them. The brother in-law and I had discussed purchasing sets for our grandchildren and putting them away. This is what we did with our children that kept them in a book with protective sleeves for over twenty years. We thought because we could purchase the card packs for 1.99 each this would be quick and painless. So, our quest began I bought the first grandchild a happy meal and received our first pack of cards. Now we needed to start the card purchasing. I was in northern Minnesota ice fishing, so on the way home I purchased 3 packs of the cards which they said was their limit per person. I thought that went ok so I decided to pick up 3 more packs at another Mc Donald's. I stopped in Wyoming Mc Donald's off 35E on the way home to gain more packs for this grandkids collection. I walk in to the lobby area, the gal who waited on me was dressed different from the staff so I took it she was the manager. I asked if I could purchase 3 packs of cards because I was told that was the limit. She replied you can't buy the packs separate their only sold in happy meals. I said that is not a true statement as I just bought 3 packs up the road. The gal said yes, it is as I have a Mc Donald's corporate bulletin that sates you can only sell them in happy meals would you like to see it. I replied no as I know there are many different owners of Mc Donald's franchises but I expectations for the same from all of them. Just like the food II purchase there all the time there all on the same page. So, when I had gotten home from my trip went to several Mc Donald's in my area Hugo, Hwy 61, 35E & Hwy 96 they all said you must purchase a happy meal. I was very discouraged in this arrangement of their franchises. My brother-in-law called knowing I was looking for these Pokémon cards and said he was at the Mc Donald's on Cope Ave in Maplewood. He said the allowed him to purchase cards there separately which is what I wanted. He said he was told he could purchase 5 packs of cards that was the limit. So he purchased them and noticed the bill for the 5 packs was escalated, instead of the 1.99 plus tax per package they charged 3.99 plus tax. He was in disbelief and asked to return them. So, he went to another Mc Donald's on Suburban Ave, went inside to the lobby to purchase card packs they also wanted 3.99 plus tax per card package. He did not purchase them at these inflated rates. So four adults took a trip to Hinckley where I knew the rules were a three pack limit per person at 1.99 per plus tax per pack. We all went thru the drive thru explained there were four of us in the car to make the purchase of twelve packs to continue this card collection for my grandchildren. No problems, no inflated pricing. We proceeded home from our time at Hinckley, it was after 8pm and decided to stop at the Cambridge Mc Donald's to purchase Pokémon cards. We pulled into the drive thru and tried to order the limit 3 per person Pokémon cards and the gal say's I think we have a limit of three packs. I said yes just like up the road 3 packs per person but there is four of us in the vehicle. She then said well we will have to do this different and I said the other McDonalds rang them up separate.so we proceeded to the drive thru window, she started to process them she did two packs and said well this all I can do. I said can we come around again to purchase the other two packs? She said I guess, so went around the building thru the drive thru again. We ordered the two packages of cards again, she said ok I will ring them up as I did with your other order. We got to the drive thru window and she rang up the third set of three packs of cards and her manager jumped in an said we have a limit of three packs per group, he will let this transaction go thru but will not sell us any more Pokémon cards. I explained to him I just picked up packs up at another Mc Donald's and their limit rules and how this don't make any sense to me. I said I could go around again if that what he wanted us to do. He said no as I needed the cards for the Happy Meals. I asked for his name, he replied Andrew Simonson, I told him that I will call corporate to explain my dissatisfaction with this whole Pokémon promotion. So, at the end of the day there are too many cooks in the kitchen making up the rules. If this were their food products it would not taste the same, which is prevented in their franchise rules. This is why you can pull up to any McDonalds and get the same tasting burgers, french fries and all their other food products. You can clearly see this is a disaster of planning where every franchise is trying to apply their own rules even if it means over charging you. Needless to say, they have made this promotion very frustrating it should have stated you have to buy a meal and then I would not even had gotten involved so it was very miss leading, but when they start to overcharging you and think this is alright this is not good.

McDonald's Service

This location on yosemite rd in modesto has horrible service! They close early almost every night. And told me they close extra early on tuesday and wednesday nights for maintenance? They don't serve milkshakes after like 5/6pm, they always say machine is down for cleaning for the night even though it's like 6pm?! Workers are always unpleasant or seem irritated.
Also, please update your hours online!

Desired outcome: Please talk to your staff, if your suppose to be open than I expect it to be open. It’s a waste of people’s time and gas money.

McDonald's Service

I was at the drive through moving a cup to place a coke in my cup holder when I heard the person at the window shaking the bag my way. Loudly may I add! I turned my head looked at the girl and said you don't need to shake the bag at me I know your there, then she throws the bag at my face so I threw it back in the window and then she throws my large coke at me through the window in my brand new car. I pulled around to the front of the store put on my mask and was ready to go in there and knock some sense into her she was lucky all the employees were standing in front of me because it wouldn't of been nice. I get along with everyone I deserve an apology.

Desired outcome: Apology and payment of $3.00 for my car wash.

McDonald's Customer Service

On Saturday January 30. 2021 I visited the drive through window at the Williston McDonald's restaurant shortly before 10:00pm. I sat at the microphone area waiting for someone to say the standard greeting and finally had to say Hello? A woman came on and said order when your ready in a irritated tone. I began to place my order and I changed a item and she let out a irritated ughh. I let it go and kept on with my order and when I ordered the happy meals I said two cheeseburger happy meals with extra fries, and a large to which she stated hold on as soon as get your happy meals done you can order the rest in a really irritated tone to which I stated Wow are you really that crabby? From there on she finished the happy meals without a word and I assumed she had my order all down I looked at the screen to preview it and it wasn't showing in full but by then she asked is that all? I responded That should be it, and I was going to ask if she could repeat it back but she hung up. When I paid for my order at the 1st window and moved to the second I explained that I had ordered a large Coke and that I didn't get that to which the girl there seemed irritated next and rolled her eyes but did give me a large Coke. When I got home my order was missing a McDouble and 2 pies. My whole order was 1 McChicken 2 McDoubles, 1 large fry 1 large Coke, 2 pies and 2 cheeseburger happy meals with extra fries and chocolate milk. I am very dissatisfied with the customer service I received and strongly suggest that your branch send the employees on shift to extra training as it is clearly needed. I will not be visiting your establishment when I am in town again.

McDonald's Manager behavior

I ordered at the drive through. The total was $25.50. I gave the cashier at the first window a coupon to make one of my sausage mcmuffins a penny, which should have decreased the amount owed by a few dollars. The cashier apparently didn't actually scan my coupon, and I didn't realize it until approaching the last window. I notified Justina, the store manager, about the mixup. She barely spoke English and could barely comprehend the situation. Her solution was to tell me it was too late to use the coupon. I again explained to her that the cashier failed to scan my coupon. Again, she explained to me it was too late. So I basically got ripped off for a few dollars. This was at the McDonald's on Barger in Eugene, OR.

Desired outcome: Send me the amount owed.

McDonald's Political activity

I would like to purchase burger and fries not your political standings; regardless of the party. I do not want to indirectly fund your donations to any political party or activism group. Stay within the your industry, food, and stay out of politics. Until you do I will purchase my fast food from another venue.

Desired outcome: Go back to just selling food and not your political stance

McDonald's Very poor service, long wait time, old food, items missing

I never expect gold-standard service form McDonalds. It's a fast-food mass producer with a bad reputation that hires unskilled teenagers. However, this experience was next level.

Sunday 17 Jan, 21:30(ish) @Belconnen drive-thru: I ordered a large El Maco meal and a single quarter pounder.

I was immediately told to wait in the the bays - with neither a please nor a thank you - to receive my order.

When it finally came, the person came to my passenger side window when they could clearly see I had a seat full of groceries there. I had to lean over my groceries and roll the window down. They handed me the bag and left without saying a single word.

There was no drink, there was no shaker seasoning or bag, and the fries were old and saltless.

When I drove back around to address these issues the duty member brought me my water but when I asked about the shaker seasoning they said they were out. I explained that there was no signage to indicate this, nor was I told about this before or during payment. When I pointed this out they shrugged and stared at me in silence. She literally shrugged me off.

It became awkward quickly so I left, furious and deeply unsatisfied.

Desired outcome: Full refund/free meal + some form of apology from a McDonalds representative.

McDonald's 25 minute wait gave my food to car in front of me

There was no one in line behind me I did my order though the drive thru. Get to 1st window they ask you again to list your whole order because they are dumb. The 2 way drive through was the worst invention ever it makes things more confusing for idiot employees. Then get to second window still no one behind me but they ask me to pull up when there's already a car waiting because they are so slow. Then they come out gave my order to the car parked in front of me at the drive thru waiting line which is not even a normal thing. Then they gave the person behind me their order. They then came over and said they would give me extra hash browns or something because they had to do the order all over again. My children were waiting for 25 minutes for breakfast. Then they finally come out with the food nothing extra and no butter for the hotcakes. Miserable morning thanks to your [censored]ty staff. They deserve to all be fired and I'm going to tell anyone I know not to go to that specific one. You guys don't even open the restaurant inside it's [censored]ing [censored].

Desired outcome: Money and apologies
