I don’t know if this is a company wide stunt, or just an unethical practice at the Gurnee, Illinois store. But on may 4th at about 3:30, I visited this store. When I went to the register two gentlemen told me that they cannot take credit card payments unless I sign up for the Backstage Pass.

” This is obviously a lie, because you still need internet access to take a card payment, membership or not. One guy said, I can just cancel the membership when I get home. I went through with the sale because I was in a hurry, but when I called the customer service line, the operator told me very rudely that he could not assist me in cancelling this membership I never wanted in the first place.

This is a very deceitful, unethical way if doing business. To blatantly lie to people in order to boost…

I ordered this all in one computer from QVC this past April. I called in when I got it hooked up. The computer is excessively slow. I went through all the instructions on your website screen. It did absolutely nothing.

I went to your virtual tech. I know/knew it was out of warranty. It did not come as a shock to me that there would be a cost to inform your tech I bought a lemon.. I have bought over the years 3 HP's with great success.

I have a Dell all in one that I was going to replace with a bigger, better HP HA! The Dell runs circles around this lemon. I was told my ISP wasn't up to par and that was the issue.

It is up to par with no problems running the Dell. Every once in awhile any product has lemons. I bought a HP lemon. I'm fuming because I repeatedly typed to Miss virtual Tech…

Went inside to order. The delivery was very slow to the people inside. The employees were only catering to the drive up window. Waited 25 min for a Cheesy Gordita Crunch. The people ahead of me asked for a refund and left.

Don't blame them, I asked for a refund as well but my order came before theirs and they were ahead of me. Employees said it was the policy of Taco Bell to get the orders to the drive up window first.

It's supposed to be the other way around. This restaurant on Garfield Rd In Clinton township is the slowest on the planet. They said they were short handed, but that's always their excuse. They probably don't hire enough people to cover the orders.

This was on a Sunday evening at 630 pm. I would hate to see what's its like at lunch or dinner. My last visit going inside.…

I was asked if I would like to join a membership with your store in Chambersburg mall In Chambersburg,PA. I stated to the cashier No thank you i rarely come into this store. 99 taken out of my account and phoned my bank to stop them.

Well 2 more payments were taken out of my account . I called the mall and spoke with assistant manager and she said she remembers I said yes.

However I would never waste my money on a membership I know I would not use. I could not believe it. She was rude to me and started to speak firmly as if I were a child . I was able to get the number for the place to call regarding membership.

I spoke with Vernon Davis whom was very helpful and stated my funds would be returned back into account within 7 days. I will wait the 7 days. I have told a couple of people…

Before Christmas I went into the FYE store in Burlington VT. They were having a going out of business sale. I was looking at a Star Wars article that would play Star Wars music. After I pushed the button the sales person told me to stop pushing the button as it was annoying her and she took them and put them behind the counter.

I was told she was a store manager. I was interested in purchasing one but was never given a chance to find out the price. I spoke to another employee who took down my name and information and was told he would pass it on to someone, no one ever contacted me.

Today (December 28th) I again called the store in Burlington Vt and spoke with someone named Jennifer Foley and explained the situation to her. She said she could apologize but that was it. I felt I deserved…

I was in the store located in Monmouth mall in New Jersey just a little while ago and my girlfriend was sitting on the floor to view the movies that were on the bottom shelf, when the on duty manager came up to her and rudely yelled at her to get up that's against the rules to sit.

My girlfriend and I both have trouble squatting so if we sit it's easier on us but the manager had no thought on what reasons she might have to do this. I've seen this particular person in many other stores and he only lasts maybe a month or two he needs to be fired as he has no customer service skills if an employee especially a manager would be this rude to a customer like that they would be fired on the spot don't go to this place they have no customer service knowledge and suck.

00 box of cereal that is in very poor taste. Drove an hour each way only to be told you don't do returns on weekends. I called the store before I left home and explained what I wanted to do.

Nothing was said on the phone and the policy is not posted in the store. I have a few contacts at tube TV/news channel s and a lot of Facebook's friends. You're ratings are poor. You choose. Store manager wouldn't give me your customer service number either. Have something to hide?

I went to the FYE Albany Mall 2601 Dawson Rd Albany, Georgia location today. I picked up two cds to purchase. I asked the young man if I bought two do I get the third for $1. His reply was no baby those are not clearance. You do not address a customer as baby. I informed him that my name is Konya and do not address me as baby. He replied that he was from the North and he is used to doing that. I informed him that it is not appropriate and do not call me that.

He mumbled while he was checking me out. His customer service was awful. He does not need to be working with the public if he cannot say yes ma'am or no ma'am. I am fifty years old and do not need someone who clearly does not like his job to be disrespectful. The sales ticket has the name Christopher 032483, ticket number 11939. He…

I live in salt lake city Utah. I am writing to HissingKitty because I want to complain about a employee at FYI in Holliday, Utah. I have billions of DVDs that I sell to them almost every day I go there.

I inherited them from my mom that passed away. I do not have a vehicle to take a bunch at same time so I have to take the bus. Anyway one day I went in there to sell and he said to me " where do you get all these movies?

You come in like 3 times a day? I was very shocked that he would even ask me. It's none of his business and I have never come in to the store 3 times a day. He lied. He said the LP look at everyone that's sells movies and I better not come in any more.

I'm very upset he has no right to treat me like that. I'm the customer. I'm furious. Now when I go in he is very rude to…

My old membership #46670875288. My new membership #466721604659. I purchased the DVD Burlesque on 9/17/14, brought it home and have watched this quite a few times on TV, not realizing that it a Blu-Ray DVD, instead of a regular DVD. I do not have a Blu-Ray player. I went to fye at Wesmoreland Mall, Greensburg, Pa. 15601, store #371, to see if I could return it and get a gift card in the amount of $20.10. I realize that is a long time, but I was told they couldn't do anything for me, that maybe I could sell it. I have the original receipt & it has never been opened. If they won't take this back unopened, how do you sell used DVD'S? I asked if Icould talk to the manager, and the clerk said she was the manager, but she had no ID on.

She said we have an upgraded system, & it wouldn't even go…

I was shopping today at FYE store 1739 for my 10yr. old grandson as I have several times before. I have never seen a line move so slow, actually it appeared not to move at all for at least 10-12 mins. More like stagnant. However, the cashier had time to converse with an- young woman for several minutes, then again with a young man that was an employee and they were both behind the counter. There was only 2 customers ahead of me with very small orders which made this all the more frustrating. I mentioned to the cashier how slow the service is and she graciously apologized for it, and then an employee (who she said was named Anthony) who was working on a store shelf interjected in an indignant manner (like he was taking a personal insult) that they only had 2 employees in the store.

Well, I…

I was at the Westfield Annapolis, Mall in Maryland, when to employees carefully and constantly see me at the register. They did not acknowledge my presence. I stated, hello! and a female manager stated yes, and I said what do you do to get service around here and then a teenager employee became sarcastic in his remarks and then I became sarcastic in how great their customer service skills were.

I have done a lot of shopping over the years in FYE and I have found them rude in Arundel Mills Mall and in Glen Burnie, Marley Station Mall. I will not be returning to any of your locations and I warn every one I know to not to shop at any of your establishments while sharing my experiences with them.

FYE has some good DVDs at rates unbelievable. I have purchased few blue ray print movies and the clarity is simply awesome. They have some great deals and discounts running on their website. I have purchased few with a good deal.

They have new ones as well as used one and both run with discounts. Well this is some good about FYE. Allows you to pick your choice. They have various Genres, categories for kids, adults, teens and family related stuff.

Great going on FYE to put up so many options for users.
