Taco Bell Mobile app need refund (it's been two weeks)

I placed a mobile order with a vanilla gift card and then went to taco bell to pick up my items on 1/16 (8-9pm). They did not have the product i ordered, they were out of beef.. they told me there was nothing they could do and to contact corporate. That was my last $25 to my name spent on taco bell that I didn't even receive. We went without dinner that night. I could not get ahold of corporate due to it being later in day. I called the next day the lady assured me id get an email and my refund within 3 days. It's been two weeks i never got an email and my card is still charged the $24. The customer service i received from a place i love so much was absolutely horrible... From the restaurant not caring one bit that i was without food for my family.. to the corporate office. Idk how you can run a business so badly, making so much money. They under pay their employees and their managers and area coaches. Clearly they don't even pay a living wage to their customer support either due to the quality of it. It makes me sad I love taco bell even after working for them for a year a while back. BUT I've never had to deal with corporate a day in my life so i truly understand how they get horrible customer service reviews.. I will never use the mobile app again. SO many other fast food places do a great job and take care of their customers. Taco bell falls extremely short in this category. I've reached out through Facebook Messenger trying to resolve this as well as filing a complaint on the website that go figure once i typed everything up which was a lot and put in all the information asked for.. it wouldn't even send it through. Waste of so much of my time and effort to get my money back for products i never received. Such a joke.

Desired outcome: My money back and to be compensated for my wasted time over this whole ordeal. Thank You

Hello, my name is Rakia Fentress. I can be reached by email [protected]@gmail.com or phone [protected]. I ordered a #6, which was two chalupas and a hard taco, with a cheesy 5 layer, I believe that's what it is called, at the Taco Bell off of bemiss Rd, Valdosta, GA. The chalupas where fine, however the hard Taco smelled and tastes like chemical...

What is up with your management at this store? How can you support kids going to college if you will not follow your own rules? Joe has asked for availability for work hours. He has been made well aware of our son's work availability due to him still being in high school. The work availability was requested by your leadership only for them not to follow it...

Today, I purchased food at taco bell and was appalled at the rudeness of the server at this restaurant. The person in question was having a friendly conversation with the gentleman in front of me but their attitude and tone became completely different once it was my turn to order. The conversation prior to me was in full spanish. I do not speak spanish...

Taco Bell all food items

The amount of the main ingredients of all their items is not sufficient. On a hard shell taco it is 2/3 taco shell and 1/3 condiments. But you see a commercial on tv and wow it sure looks good but it is not what you get not even close. I would think that is false advertising. About all the Taco Bells do the same. I have eaten at several locations across the country with the same results so I assume the employees are told to do so.

Desired outcome: Put in more main ingredient.

Taco Bell Health issue

1st I love Taco Bell and eat it al the time, I'm 379lbs. LOL Anyway I went to taco Bell in Austin Texas the store on North Lamar and Rutland, was told 3150, but might not be the correct info. I went inside to order and ask to use the restroom and was told No because of Covid, but the dining room is open and people need to wash their hands or make it drive thru only (just my thoughts, didn't say it) so I ordered my food and was sitting waiting to hear my name, and I hear laughing and talking very loud, so I stand up and walk around to see and there was the 2 ladies bent over the food preparing counter laughing, joking and talking over my food without a face covering, so I said in a calm voice Ladies shouldn't you be wearing a mask preparing people food esp. laughing and talking, the Short lady said no, we all vaccinated, I said that's god but you still shouldn't be over people food without a mask, the short lady said you want your money back, I replied yes, do she walked over to get me my money and I asked her name and she said I don't have to give you my name, I ask was she the manager and she said no and pointed over at the lady she was laughing with over my food. I ask the manager her name and she said it but I couldn't make it out, sounded like Camilla. I ask what the store number was and she looked at the short lady and she said I'll give you our boss number, I told them I don't want his number if he approves of your actions. I eft and went across the street to dominoes and everyone in there had on mask. I been eating taco bell since the 70's and will continue to eat it, but not at this location or any other location that practice the same business design.

Taco Bell Service / food

I went to the rebuilt Taco Bell on Meadowbrook Dr in Fort Worth Texas today 1-7-2022 and ordered lunch. I ordered 3 taco supremes. First the girl told me they didn't have any sour cream. So I asked if the regular tacos had tomatoes on them and she said no. So I then asked if they gave a discount for the missing sour cream and she said no. So I told her I still wanted 3 taco supremes. I get to the window and get my tacos and they are small. I thought the taco supreme shells were longer. I was told no but I swear they use to be. Then I get home and start to unwrap my tacos and EVERY SINGLE ONE IS BROKEN! Not just a little break but all the way across the bottom and each shell is also broken. Worse mess I have ever seen. If I had not already changed clothes I would have driven back to Taco Bell but I had just come from pain management from getting an injection in my knee and was trying to get something quick for lunch. They would charge me if I added sour cream or tomatoes but Taco Bell won't give a discount if the location doesn't have an item! I don't think that is right! It should apply both ways. Not my fault if Taco Bell is out of an item!

This Taco Bell might have been rebuilt but it sure didn't help with service! The first time I went after the reopening their drive thru wasn't working (the computer or register was down) so you had to go inside to order. Well that might have been fine but there were no partying places so I just had to leave. Two for two so far and not exactly thrilled about the service at this "new rebuilt location!"

The picture is 2 tacos.

Taco Bell Food Combo #6

Today 12/30/21 around 9:15 - 9:20pm I went to your restaurant located at (Drive-thru) 5389 Prospect Rd, San Jose, CA 95129, I ordered 2 Combos #6 and 1 combo #3.
The Chalupas had a terrible smell and were so hard to bite that I ended it tossing them. One of them even had salsa inside like someone return it or had it before. Horrible experience, I was looking for my receipt but was not provided however since I paid with my credit card I can provide the exact time and proof of purchased.

Desired outcome: Money back for the 2 combos number 6

Taco Bell Online order and service from staff

Placed an order online at 121 n mcdade blv glenolden pa Taco Bell, sat in front of the counter for a good 30 min (still waiting) and no one even attempted to help me or ask if I needed to place an order I had to ask them about my order and was rudely told that there was no order for me with out doing anything to verify it. Extremely horrid service if I didn't already pay for it I would have cursed him out. I am currently still sitting in the lobby at 2:21 in a green hoodie, check the cameras

Taco Bell Can't fill out surveys because they require a store number from the receipt...

So, I've had an ongoing issue with Taco Bell's app. I've emailed them four times, called them 4 times and told a restaurant manager my issue twice and no one has ever looked into it or called me back.

Was going to try to submit my issue via their "tell the bell" survey advertised on the back of their receipts but it requires to enter a Store number, which they no longer print on their receipts!

Through all these recent experiences, it's apparent Taco Bell lacks any professionalism, does not care to address customer concerns or wanting any customer feedback.

Desired outcome: Respect

I was finally contacted. Issues as of yet not fully resolved: but more confident it will be fixed. I am now satisfied with the response for the aggravation I have had with my issue. Person I spoke to expressed much empathy, apologized, was professional & made me feel valued as a customer. Can't ask for anything more!

The Taco Bell's in my area are becoming abysmal. In the past two months, ALL TB locations are drive-thru ordering only such as in Cranston; Providence; Warwick & Pawtucket, RI along with Attleboro & Seekonk, MA.

Also, they run out of soda flavors along with sauce varieties. Their computer systems crash constantly at a Massachusetts location--telling customers If place an order at the restaurant, it is cash only payment--if want to pay by credit card, the only way to do so is with the app.

Their app won't work for me since December 9th: resulting in unable to take advantage of all these "wonderful" offers they email me daily plus losing out on free products because of their points program. The restaurant's menu is limited when ordering at the restaurant versus ordering thru their app. I did try signing up with a different email address, but at a Massachusetts location, the app crashed losing my order while waiting in the drive-thru. Then, the next time at a Rhode Island location, my order was delayed and resulting in me waiting 20 MINUTES for my food.

I've called the corporate phone number to get help with the app. On each call, I waiting to speak to someone for over TEN minutes: two times, when the call rang, it disconnected me--and the other two times, I was promised a call back from either a supervisor or tech support. I've emailed them asking for help four times, too. And the restaurant manager at a Massachusetts location says she can't help with the app & telling me last week that many have had issues using the app then telling me she'd call corporate to help me (which I doubt she did). I let her know this week the app still was not working and no one called me to help me. Her response now is "then something must be wrong with your phone" Even though logging into their website also gets me nowhere on my laptop and tablet! All my inquiries by phone and email has resulted to zero help: this has been going on for 15 days.

As a Taco Bell customer of 30 years, and that buys lunch there weekly, I am disappointed by their lack of respect, professionalism and customer service.

At this point, they may as well just go out of business!

Taco Bell charged for an online order that was not received

Past Saturday 12/18/21 around 6:15 PM I placed an order online as a guest for pickup to a Taco bell located at 12001 SW 129th Ct, Miami, FL 33186. When I went to the store an employee said that he was not able to see my order, after multiple attempts I had to return to my house with no food. But the charge was already pending in my bank account and today shows up as charged for an amount of $30.70. I am requesting a refund.

Taco Bell 6 inch x 2 inch mostly tortilla bean burrito.

What happened to Taco Bell? Not only did I wait 15 minutes in drive through for 2- dinky small 6 x 2 inch bean burrito. I paid for extra onion, red sauce, cheese too. Most of the burrito was tortilla. Pretty stingy and low quality. How you can call that a burrito? Also, Taco Bell discontinued the tostada, the chicken quesadilla on dollar menu, and nacho supreme. All these items I used to order. I won't be going to TACO BELL any more. Taco Bell Sucks.
Napa, California on Soscol Ave. 12/17/21

Desired outcome: Desired outcome is make a BURRITO and stop skimping on ingredients. If you stuck to the basics like you used to have. ENchurito, burritos. Tacos, taco salad maybe your drive through would move like it should Instead of snail mode.
