Sonic Drive-In Unable to delete account after being hacked.

Entrapment - My app was hacked. I received an email inquiring about my last visit to Sonic 2 days ago. I haven't been to Sonic in over a year. This prompted me to immediately log in to my account, and check the cards I have listed. I deleted immediately, and attempted to delete the entire account. Sonic App has made this impossible. There is NO option to delete this app. Of course, I went to Google to see if I was overlooking the obvious, NO there is no option the edit beyond my name and cards.

I was hired at sonic and worked for 2 days because of a terrible manager. He thinks he can scream at people. Not help or listen to you when asking or informing that you are struggling. No training involved and expects you to do and know everything on the spot. He let a Spanish speaking employee call me a white [censored] and laughed like nothing was wrong.

Went to Shaw and valentine Sonic’s drive thru at 9:19pm . Customer service (oversized Caucasian male) was rude over the intercom, waited in line for 20 minutes, pulled up to the window and was extremely rude. The staff had music blasted inside the restaurant and couldn’t hear our order. Repeated our orders completely wrong 3x then told us to start over...

I came through the Sonic drive thru in Hastings Nebraska on July 8,2023 at 7:15 pm. I sat in the drive through and at the stalls for 30 min. I sat at the drive through with no answer, and at the stall with no answer either. I called them and they said it was going to be right out. I proceeded to wait another 20 min before I got my stuff. It was a Coke with...

Sonic Drive-In Refund

On may 11th I placed an ordered online for delivery. After I was done selecting what I wanted to order, I put in my information u know card info, address etc…. I double checked to make sure it was for delivery and submitted my payment. It was already like 5 past 11 and I was like why isn’t the food here yet! So I looked on the app and I noticed that it said pick up, mind you Im disabled and I can’t and am not allowed to drive due to medical reasons. So right away after I noticed the screwup I called sonic and it just rang and then the fax went on. I’ve called corporate more then 13 times and every time they said they are gonna escalate it to the higher power or level, but one agent said that they refunded my and it went thru and I should get it any day. So this last time I called and the lady said that she was gonna escalate it! I’m so tired of waiting and begging for my money back, I have no food at all for my kids and I’m really depending on it! Just seeing my kids cry cause their isn’t really any food is so heartbroken and I don’t have no family that will help me. I really need my money back please I’m begging.

I called my bank and they started an investigation and I signed the paper already.

Please make it right, I shouldn’t have to beg for my own money back!

God Bless

Monique Rodriguez

Desired outcome: Please Refund, would love compensation but a refund is fine.

Sonic Drive-In Chicken dinner with gravy

Straight up never eating at sonic again because you took a STAPLE of your menu OFF. Absolutely never returning to Sonic ever. I think this had made me so MAD that even if you did put it back on the menu, i still wouldnt go back. What a shame sonic. Ive wasted so much money here over the years, if i could take all of it back i would because sonic doesnt deserve even a penny of it.

Desired outcome: Nothing would make this better.

While in drive-through, placing my order, I tried to place a second order I was told that I had to drive all the way back around. I was OK with that. Upon getting to the window I am now in faced with the awareness that there is no tap to pay Apple Pay services at all. I pay an alternative way. So then, instead of waiting for my food, I decided to drive...

In Fort Lupton Colo there is a Sonic who needs assistance. When you park to order off of their menu boards, many of them do not work. Today I went to sonic and drove into five different parking spots and none of the order boards worked. There were four orange cones on others that did not work. When talking with the person who brought out our order, she said...

We've experienced this in the past but with food. We just placed a drink order today and I was charged for the diet cherry syrup, but it didn't come with it. I ordered through the app. I went up to the door and they told me they didn't have any diet cherry syrup so I asked why was it available to order and I was charged for it. It's not the car hops fault...

Sonic Drive-In Chicken strips dinner

Why have you discontinued the gravy with the chicken basket? I do not wish to have dipping sauce instead of gravy. Who makes these decisions and why? Just my opinion, but I'm sure others feel the same way. Yesterday,June-28-2023 was the first time we ordered the Chicken Basket and got no gravy with it. No one even told us that there would be no gravy. So Sad! I would rather not have the Texas Toast than no gravy. Come on!

Desired outcome: Please Bring Back the Gravy for the Chicken Basket

I did an online pickup order today and it said 5 minutes when I arrived to the location I pulled up to a stall they said you have to get on the drive thru line. There were already approx 10 cars on line. When I finally got to the drive thru speaker she said pull up. With 4 cars still in front of me I parked and walked to the door. I received my 6 drink...

Around 6:30-7:00 pm on Monday, June 19, 2023 I went to sonic to pick up dinner. I ordered a sonic burger combo, a popcorn chicken combo for my kids to share, mozzarella sticks, and an ice cream. While waiting on food, we got a weather alert for severe weather in the area. When the food arrived, I checked to make sure we had everything and left. Not only go...

Sunday, June 18th (Father's day) I went thru the drive through and ordered a hot fudge sundae and a chocolate shake. My sundae was very small and my shake was vanilla. Happy Father's day dad from Sonic in Chickamauga, Georgia. 😡 complaint board says my complaint is too short, so... my experience with sonic today, on Father's day, was really, really, really, really, really, really terrible, terrible, TERRIBLE!

Sonic Drive-In The lack of concern for serving food that would harm the public.

I purchased a double meat hamburger with bacon fries, and a strawberry shack on 6/9/23 @ 10:45 a # 3 on the menu. Store # [protected] Greenwell Spring Rd. Greenwell Springs/ Baton Rouge La. # [protected]. SAM SHADDINGER supervisor. I had very very severe food poisoning and still have problems after eating the food over 7 days ago. I have called several times I have sent text messages I have sent emails and the response to all have been someone will reach out to you in 48 hours. No one has reach out.

Desired outcome: Not sure at this point, wanted to be contacted and concerned shown to my health. But no I am mad. Could have died. It was that and is that bad.
