Walmart pharmacy

Walmart needs to get out of the Pharmacy business - they have gotten too big for their own good! Everytime you go to WalMart to pick up medicines, be prepared to spend 30 minutes in line just to get to the counter. Once you have made it there, expect to get a partial on the prescription you requested or get told that they are out of stock on the medicine you need. Remember - you had dropped off the prescription earlier and they did not have the forsight to let you know at that time that they were out of stock on a medicine. To be out of stock on common antibiotics, blood pressure or diabetes medicine is inexcusable. If Walmart can not stock up om medicines that are commonly used, then they need to get out of this business! I am sure that Walgreens is just as busy as Walmart but I have never had to wait for a medicine if it had been dropped off earlier!

did you count them right in front of the pharm tech? if not then how can you expect them to help you/
By no means am I hinting you are incorrect, or fibbing, but when it comes to banking and medicines, they have to be counted right then and there. Sorry about your luck.

Walmart identity theft/forged checks

Someone has stolen my identity and banking information. Various Walmarts throughout Texas have been responsible for accepting these forged checks and I am getting no help from Walmart to stop this problem! I have police reports in to all locations which accepted these forged checks, and the Desoto walmart Accounting Manager told me "It's not our problem" Excuse me! YOU ARE THE PROBLEM! You're accepting fake checks from someone with a fake ID. It's is absolutely YOUR problem! I have tried to navigate the phone lines and website to no avail. PLEASE, PLEASE HELP! It's not just one check, and none of them are small amounts, I'm financially destroyed right now!

The register no longer prompts for the cashiers to check IDs anymore, unless it is the first time a check is being used in the store. That's why no one asked. This is for Walmart, not sure how Target runs their thing.

Walmart urban campaign

Walmart sucks! Here are just a few reasons why 1) Encouraging use of carcinogenic pesticides such as Roundup (we know who died from this); 2) Massive use of slave labor for producing garments; 3) New world order agenda: They pushing corporate education disguised as urban clean up, diversification, renewal projects. We know this--outside our apartment is a few Clean the City Walmart signs; they are running a museum campaign at the Smithsonian; they are awarding grants to schools and colleges provided the teachers/ professors attend their training camps (really corporate brainwashing in disguise); 4) All of their foods are processed foods mostly, just like Target. Processed foods are full of artificial ingredients, carcinogenic genetically modified organisms, hydrolyzed proteins (msg), polysaturated fats, and other sterile ingredients; 5) World domination by 2049 (see the new game 2049). All universities will have board presidents from McDonalds, Coco-Cola, Kraft, Walmart, the whole shebang; rather than Walmart University, it will still have the old facade, but most of the boards will consist of conglomerate representatives. In that world, the only free thought will be what is needed to make the grade. Socrates would puke all over himself. Ewww!
I hate Walmart because they underpay (contrary to what their campaign says) and rely on slave labor, and breed slave drivers (called professors in the new world order), and poison the human beings with toxic chemicals, and poison the human soul with consumerist greed, and pollute the planet with all their plastic garbage and consumerist wastes. Walmart, you suck! We don't need to be cancer stricken (yes we are that too sadly, from all the Roundup we used to use) to know Walmart is evil!

PS. One last factor which I forgot to mention in the rural area which we lived was we had some funky neighbors, and they were really redneck types, and we were pretty counterculture; so there's a sneaking suspicion one of them could very easily have poisoned the waterwell, which was hardly ever locked.

Now I have regrets about saying all those *bad* things about Walmart. I can imagine those highly paid execs with nothing to do all day except read postings on complaintsboard, pulling their hair out! But if I hadn't seen the *cheery* "Clean the City" wire signs stuck in the lawn mostly likely by the landscaping crew for our apartment building, I wouldn't have been upset. I mean, I didn't mean to ruin Aggravated Shopper's day; there was a time I loved to be greeted by those cheery oldsters in front of the store; in fact, I even thought about maybe applying to work there too. And they do have these very reasonably priced most likely factory second music CDs. It wasn't altogether bad, till we got sick. Some of us don't know what it's like being in the hospital. Nowadays the first thing they do is hook you up on an IV with "antibiotics" or "potassium" but really all that is to make you lose your sense of time so you don't worry about bathing or anything. The idea of writing a book while in a hospital bed...that's a myth. Okay, there were more factors than one for developing colorectal cancer, but we think Roundup was a catalyst. Here are some other contributing factors to consider: http://coloncancer.about.com/od/causesofcancer/a/Colon_Cancer.htm. I don't want his relatives to see this posting and start to get upset. They'll guess it was me after a while. He smoked, and I breathed in alot of secondary smoke. He made his own wine, and we drank several glasses every night, and it had sulfite preservatives. My dad had colorectal cancer, so the factors were partly hereditary. Not mentioned in the causes, but it should be is yeast infection/ allergy. Man, I am too good to you people considering all the insults I get in return. Men and women can be allergic to wheat and develop candida: http://www.turnaroundyourhealth.net/Candida-Albicans---Is-it-The-Cause-of-Your-Health-Problem?/B67.htm. Furthermore, taking coconut oil can help: http://www.organicfacts.net/organic-oils/organic-coconut-oil/health-benefits-of-coconut-oil.html. Now the moment I say this Walmart executive may try to corner the market on the stuff. I noticed it has been disappearing rather quickly off our organic stores here locally. Nevertheless, there are 16 factors mentioned, and a few preventatives. Don't smoke, don't drink, get the endoscopy soon as you hit 40, earlier if someone in the family has had colorectal cancer, exercise, try to eat less processed foods, more organic/gmo, don't use herbicides in the garden (another factor was boyfriend was pretty sloppy about washing his hands, and his aim got sloppy too sometimes, he just accidentally sprayed on the veggies; and believe spraying all the dandelions on a 5 acre piece of land is a lot of dandelions). Also don't take any alcohol or coffee if you are already prone to yeast infections: men, if you itch down there, that's a very good sign. Bathe the genitalia with tea-tree soap and rub in some coconut oil down there all over. Cut the hair down there too if it gets too bushy. You can also take coconut oil internally. You know, there are many ways to have a nice day besides just the one-dimensional Walmart way, after all, like I said, Walmart only lets us see the bright side of the sunny street. We need to see the whole picture sometimes. Thank you complaintsboard.

I am hurt. Against my better judgment: 1) boyfriend died of liver disease/late stage colorectal cancer. Guess what his fav thing was to do? Spraying for dandelions using Roundup in a cannister every single morning, including the veggie garden where I dutifully weeded. Yeah don't laugh! 2) I got colorectal cancer and had multiple surgeries and followup treatment a year later. Now I have an ostomy that is not reconnectable. I was also sterilized etc from radiation treatment. 3) Walmart had a very aggressive Roundup campaign on Live365 Radio last year; You couldn't listen to live354 online radio without encountering those stupid Walmart ads about Roundup for the garden. Every 15 minutes! 4) All right, I don't *hate* Walmart, but my allegations of them using sweatshops is pretty much true. They have gotten better, but you can, if you are psychic at all, feel the pain embedded in their clothings. I can. So can other people but they won't admit it. 5) You have to admit they push a lot of tasteless corporate foods that personally I find disgusting. Read "Fast Food Nation" to get an idea of what I am talking about. 6) Okay, the prof was a bit of a slave driver, but she wasn't the meanest, but at the same time, there is this effect when they all aggregate at those faculty seminars. If you ever been to one, maybe you would know. You think they are so nice, but man, some of them are nothing if narcissistic and egoistical. But to be fair, she was a fair grader, although with regard to everything else just a schmuck like everybody else. 7) So yes, I look like those caricatures of Obama mama going back to school. Not real funny at my age. And of course you can guess what kind of college it had to be if it needed a Walmart grant so bad. Maybe not so bad, but not really all that hot either. Now you know why I need a punching bag like Walmart sucks? Okay, now go punch me in the face and make me feel worse. Maybe I should have said, "Complaint Board sucks!"

Why don't you identify yourself as who you really are? Technical administrator at Complaintsboard? Makes tens of thousands per year, paid to monitor complaints board complaints? But you don't have the experience of actually working for a prof who was awarded a massive grant. You don't have the humiliation of slaving for such professor for ZERO dollars, for her walmart grant. That's right ZERO of her hundred thousand dollar grant EVER made it into this direction. Well, we're not really complaining. We got through. But talk about tight. Meanwhile she goes trekking happily, party happily on those precious Walmart dollars. Wow. So yeah, I SPEAK FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE! I KNOW WHAT IT IS LIKE BEING A WALMART SLAVE! Do you? No!

All you people who complain about Walmart. Email your complains to BBB at bbb.com. I see thousands of complains in sites that Walmart could not care less about and one complain to BBB WILL be answered. Regardless on how big the company is, ther credit rating in bbb effects their credibility. Hit this small business killer where it hurts.
Their credit rating is A+ and this is the same company that used the slogan " We buy American, We sell American" for years. Remember that?

All your complains WILL be answered only if you submit to BBB. Walmart executives are not stupit, they have been counting on the normal Joe's stupidity for years.
Complain to BBB.com and get response faster that you think

While I am not a very big fan of Walmart any more and actually agree with many of your statements regarding Walmart, i am wondering is this a complaint more about Walmart or more about RoundUp? I know Walmart has their own generic brand of RoundUp in a green bottle but if this is more about the actual RoundUp brand, there are so many places that sell it from Walmart, to hardware stores, nurseries and green houses, and it is even carried in grocery stores.

BTW, I have retired from Walmart so i have time to comment on this site but I honestly have never, ever heard anyone say anything bad about RoundUp except they didnt think it worked very well.

Walmart walmart vizio 55 led lcd tv purchase cancelled - bait & switch

Placed a order at dumbcorp.com for a vizio 55"led lcd tv, order went thru, credit card was charged. I selected site-2-store shipping method.
Same day I made 2 of my friends aware of this incredible deal (199.99), of which both of them purchased. The 1st friend, as did i, had our orders cancelled"your order was canceled on 04/20/2011, due to a lack of product availability". The second friend, and last to order, has received his tv, and no amount of calling customer care will get us the tv at the low price of 199.
So we ordered first, and our orders cancelled. The last to order got his tv, no big troubles at all, for the very low price of 199.99
When I check the walmart.com (Dumbcorp.com) website, it says lack of product avail...

Very frustrated with their lack of customer service in this regard. This is false advertising, a bait and switch, dishonest practice which is illegal in the state in which I reside.

Will contact: bbb, attorney general, & para-legal friend, & also file court case.

Funny thing about this is: walmart is going to loose money ether way, they have 1 of 2 options:
1. Give me the tv, take the loss, make a customer happy (It was their mistake).
Or
2. I will continue to pursue this matter so persistently, it will cost them. (Hours spent on phone with reps & agents, lawyers, etc).

If they elect option 2, they will still loose (They loose ether way, they made a mistake), but they will also loose a long time walmart.com & walmart b&m customer.

The reps on the phone have not been able to be of any assistance at all.

Odd way to do business.

Gettindatvizio:
Just gotta keep calling, make sure you explain very descriptively everything that took place, then after explaining it to the rep tell them you would like to speak with a sup.

Once you call in enough, it will RED FLAG your account/order.

Yesterday walmart.com rep said that after careful review, walmart.com has acknowledged their error, and will be fulfilling the orders IF you call back into walmart.com when the vizio 55 inch TV is avail.

So keep an eye out for product availibility, and once avail call into 1-800-walmart, option 2, 2, 5
provide them your order number, explain to them the situation, get your TV!

Walmart baby changing station

I needed to change my 4 month old son.I went to the restroom located in back of the store.I layed my diaper bag down and pulled the station out from the wall.When i layed my son down the table was broken with no cord attached, latches broke and he fell.Lucky enough I was paying attention and was able to catch him.Why this wouldn't be installed correctly or maintained the right way blows my mind.As to other parents my children are the most important thing in my life.For me to have to lose my baby to head trauma or even him be hurt by Walmarts Neglience is unexceptable.I am not sure where I will go from here but my first thought is to make sure that all parents know that this could happen to there child.At know time should a customer have to worry about something like this.Words will not express how livid I am and I hope from now on that they are maintained.

Walmart prejudice against native americans

I took my 7 year old son to buy a 4th Nintendo Game for his DS at Hiawatha Kansas Walmart 66434. The little walmart employee acted like he did not want to help my son and I. I asked 3 times if he could open the locked cabinet and let my son pick his new game out. This employee gave us the most prejudiced look I ever seen in my 47 years! He rudely slammed open the cabinet and shouted at my son, "WHICH GAME DO YOU WANT". My 7 year old son pointed to the game and all of a sudden got afraid of this Walmart employee! This Hiawatha Kansas Walmart employee grabbed the game slammed the door shut and took off to the front of the store. I shouted, "WHERE ARE YOU GOING WITH MY SONS GAME" After following him 3 isles he finally said, PICK THIS UP AT THE FRONT" I reported this behavior to the evening WALMART MANAGER IN HIAWATHA KANSAS, And his attitude was just as bad as the Walmart Employee who scared my 7 year old. I informed the Manager I bought 3 games before here at $49.90 Each and a diffrent Walmart Employee each time handed them to my son with a smile and said, "I HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT TIME WITH THIS GAME" The Hiawatha Walmart Evening Manager replied, "I THINK HE JUST DID WHAT HE WAS SUPPOSE TO DO" I told my son, these people act like this because of our skin color! I told my son we will not spend our money here anymore for games. We drove round trip to the next closest Walmart in Saint Joseph Missouri 90 miles to buy the game and was treated like a human being. This is why I say THE WALMART STORE IN HIAWATHA KANSAS 66434 DOES NOT CARE FOR NATIVE AMERICANS!

Heck, Wal Mart treats thier employees like crap regardless of colour. If your a good employee and do your job well the managers will beat you down and break your spirit thus taking away your desire to do any bettter. However most (not all) of the younger generation has an attitude problem and if you didnt before working for Wal Mart you soon will. It has nothing to do with skin colour.

That is weird because I have the same experience every time I get a video game at Walmart, and I'm as white as it gets. I do know that they employees are supposed to take any game more than $25 directly to a register because of the high risk of theft. I'm not going to pretend I know what it is like to be treated with discrimination, but based on what you wrote, I'm not seeing discrimination here either. I see the typical service that Walmart is known for...crap.

I am handicapped, Its all I can muster to walk from my truck, with the help of a cane or leaning on a cart, to get to the door to an electric scooter to do my shopping.

Walmart bait and switch

On March 16, 2011 I was shopping online for wooden swing sets for my son’s 4th birthday. I found the Adventure Play Sets Columbia Wooden Swing Set on Walmart.com for $399. I was excited about the price, and the free site to store shipping was an added bonus. I shared my findings with two of my coworkers (who will gladly provide written statements), and I also took a picture on my cell phone and sent it to my husband. My husband and I discussed the swing set for a couple of days, but finally reached the decision to purchase it. When I went back online, the swing set was out of stock but still priced at $399. Since the set was only available online (not in stores), I monitored the website almost daily for a couple of weeks for the set to become available again. Finally, on the morning of Monday, April 11, 2011, the set was once again available and I ordered it immediately. Later that day, I went back to the website to check the status of my order and I noticed that the swing set was out of stock again. The status of my order was “in process” but the payment had been made so I assumed I was lucky enough to get one of the limited amounts while they were available.
On Tuesday, April 12th, I checked the status of my order again hoping for a better estimated time of arrival so that I could start planning my son’s birthday party. I was absolutely shocked to see that WalMart.com had changed my order, and that they were shipping a swing set that I did NOT order. I was even more shocked when I found the posting for the swing set that I did order, still out of stock but with an increase in price to $499! I immediately contacted Customer Service via email and instructed them to cancel my order and to refund my money. I took the time later that day to send another detailed email to [protected]@walmart.com. The response that I received to both of those messages was a generic return policy. I responded to those messages informing them that I was going to file complaints with the BBB and with any blog that would listen, in hopes that such a response would force Walmart.com to address the real situation. They responded and apologized that the swing set in my order was not the swing set that I “preferred.” I believe that Walmart.com baited me with the swing set that I wanted, and once they received my money they switched my order to a less popular swing set that I did not want. Now, I have to wait for a swing set that I did NOT order to arrive before my money will be refunded. Then, I believe that they decided that since this set was so popular, they were going to increase the price.
I am including a photo of the swing set that I ordered, being offered on www.bargainsaddict.com through Walmart.com for $399. This ad was posted on 4/10/2011. This is the swing set that I watched for a few weeks and eventually purchased, but it’s not the swing set that Walmart.com is sending to me.
On 4/13/2011 at 5:59am MST, Walmart.com Customer Service guaranteed that I would receive a phone call within one business day to help resolve this issue. It has been 24 plus hours without any contact.

When stores stock Hundreds of items, odds are that something will get mis-priced. The issue with the blueberries was probably a minor pricing error.

I bought blueberries at Walmart recently and i got into their bait-and-switch rip-off "deal" where the price on the shelf was displayed $2.48 but the cash register charged me $1.30 more, which was $3.78! Now that's a rip-off! I noticed that and went and got my money back, but the returns department held me for a long time and she acted if the computer is down then she went to check the price and did not come back for 6 minutes! She probably went to a restroom! And IRS and the Revenue Department probably secretly supports such fraud, because they will get more sales taxes that way! And you will be out of your money faster if you are foolish enough not to check everything at the cash register or soon after!

I can vouch for the swing set because my sister just bought one for $399. She got the set and she got it for the sale price, so hopefully they fix their error.

Walmart delivery

Walmart.com states a range that product will be delivered using site to store. Today is the last day of their scheduled time. They have had over 10 days, I tried calling the store it is to arrive at and they became somewhat rude with their "When it arrive we will contact you, if you don't hear from us then it isn't here" attitude. So I asked since it is due to arrive can I take one from the store and you replace it when it arrives. They were like "NO! That would mess up our inventory". They proceeded to explain that my order is coming from another "store" and that is from their inventory not the stores I am at.
The girl was so worried about messing up the stores inventory and less about customer service. The ONLY reason I ordered online was the store did not have any in stock originally but then got some in. My choice was to cancel the order which showed it was on the truck for delivery or wait. I have given Walmart the full time they asked for and the people act as if I am an inconvenience to them... nice. Also, Walmart.com does not offer a phone number to call, they provide an email link. I have not received any replies to my inquiries yet.

Walmart expiration of card

On April 1, 2011, I reloaded my WalMat Money Card at the WalMart Superstore in Phoenix, AZ on Bethaney Home Road.

On April 2, 2011, I was trying to use the card and was told by the merchant that the card had expired. I looked at the card and realized that it had expired on 3/2011. I went back to WalMart at their Money Mart Services and was told that there was nothing that could be done. All my money is tied up in the card. I called the Customer Service which was located in the Phillipines and was told that they would sent out a card for me and sent it urgent which would take 2-3 days.

On April 6, 2011, I checked my mail when I got home and realized that the card still did not arrive. I called Customer Service again and this time I took a Badge #0592 which told me that there was never any information stating that a card would be sent to me. I couldn't believe it, he was actually telling me that there was nothing they could do, because it was on the automated system as lost. He advised me that I would have to wait 8 to 10 days for the card. I told him that I need my money can I please speak to a supervisor. He had me on hold for about 1/2 hour and no one came on but him (Badge #0592).

To date I have no money and no card, is there someone that can help me? I am traveling on empty with my car and had to borrow $10.00 just to get to work. Please help me. I have a total of $249.00 tied in the card and no one with WalMart has helped.

The Phillipine Call-Center is definitely no help. They took my card regardless that it expired and now I am not able to have any money.

When they entered my card number wouldn't it indicate that the card had expired. I had made a change of address and even that was not recorded on the first week of March. I used the card to reload not realizing it expired. Why wasn't it detected on April 1, 2011 that the card had expired?

My problem is the Call-Center advised me that they were going to send it to me as urgent and to date, I have not received my card. I have already done what you advised and still no money and no card. Please do not tell me that I tossed it thinking it was junk mail. I use this card constantly, I don't like your comment.

I'm not sure if you've received your card yet or not, but you can have a check sent to yourself using the online bill pay option that walmart money card offers... it's processed using the direct deposit information (not the actual card information), so it wouldn't matter if that card was expired. I'm surprised they didn't mention this to you at the call center.
