I left without causing a scene!

So I went to Del Taco, and ordered a chicken taco and a combo burrito with extra cheese and extra sauce. The kitchen is open to the lobby so you can watch someone make the food if you want.

She didn't put my extra sauce, but it was no charge and I had my taco bell packets on hand. No biggie. But when she put the cheese in the burrito, it was CHINTZY with pinched fingers to grab the cheese. So the cashier handed me my food and I told him I ordered extra cheese for the burrito and I want extra cheese like I paid for.

He turned and asked the girl if she put extra cheese and she said yes. So he turns around and tells me he'd have to charge me another 40 cents for more cheese. I said "no, I just want my money back". Got my money back, and left!

Do you know how hard it was for me not to jump over the counter and set the place on fire?! mad lol Crappy customer service sets me off into the outer edges of hell. I worked in customer service for 15 years and I can't explain the lengths that I've had to go as a customer service rep to keep a customer happy.

One time while working for a furniture company, a bid was submitted and accepted by one of our dealers and right away I noticed he had no storage on the bid. I faxed this information to him. He took no action. Later towards the completion of this project, he goes to management in a panic claiming he didn't get his storage and when they came to me I showed them the original bid, my fax advising the storage was needed and all the other attempts to point this out to him with no answer.

I was told to submit an order for $40,000.00 worth of storage, which they gave him for free and based on his LIES that he ever submitted them in the first place! disbelief So yeah, I can wild out if you don't give me my .40 cents worth of cheese hammer This time, I didn't! biggrin

Anyone proud of me? lol

I always go there so I was surprised they let me walk out of there with my money confused Another reason I watch the food making, no shenanigans. I'd rather get a refund than give the food back for dickens to be made lol

The last time I went to wire money to my brother I sat and waited. I don't like going to this place because EVERY TIME there is an issue. Like one time I was waiting for someone to come to the counter. A clerk walks by and asks if I need any help. I said yes. about 5 minutes goes by and nobody is coming to help me so I spot that clerk down the aisle and walk over and tell him I've been waiting. He says "Oh, I didn't know you wanted me to call someone for you." I looked at him and said "Hello, you asked if I need any help and yet you don't get me the help I need!?![/i] He looked at me like I was crazy. neutral neutral neutral

Anyway, the last time I went there I waited then saw the manager and 2 women coming behind the counter. The manager asks if I need to wire money and I say yes and then she tells me it's closed because they have nobody there to work that station. FIRMLY I said, either you have someone on staff to handle this staion or close it down and don't offer the service and you're gonna tell me you don't have staff and there are three of you behind this counter!

Both the girls were basically clutching each other in fear and the manager was shocked as well. And I wasn't even yelling! lol It did make me feel bad to be agressive but I just think back when I was forced to let that asswipe get $40,000.00 worth of free product when he tried going to the president of the company trying to put the blame on me! And I had to do it with a goddamn smile.

GIVE ME MY CHEESE DAMNIT! pissed lol

See, here's the thing. I don't like the feeling of being pushed to be evil. I hate it. After I firmly told that manager, and no I did not yell, I did feel bad and like I wanted to apologize but no, I was in the right!.

I'm sure both employees acted against the franchise/corporate policy.

Where I work, customer service is supposed to be number one, with the customer never wrong. If it means a refund for something obviously used, they get a refund.

I am not one to abuse people in the name of this theory. But I hate being wronged even if it's cuz I didn't get the cholesterol I paid for!
