      Problems with Albertsons on Flamingo/**************** in ***************. New manager ******* ******** trying to resolve. I spoke with him in detail several times. Some issues - selling old food - he saw dried up chicken and I had to wait 40 minutes for a new batch. All old chicken not disposed of. Continued on-line issue with products and miss pricing such as $4.40 for mushrooms but charged $5, cereal $1.97 but charged $5.49, inadequate inventory so empty shelves from 6am-10am as shipment comes in at 8am and then stocking. Early morning shopping because of heat in *********. Finally put up a sign for self-checkout 15 items or less but inadequate staffing and no cashier at check out line. Today, both were taking breaks at the same time. Earlier multiple attempts with credit card and assist mgr didn't know that limit was $60/transaction and told me I was over limit or if credit card denied because it was stolen. Lots of thefts at this store. Grocery basket stored at far end of entrance and not at entrance. Initially a gift card was issued but continued problems and I requested another gift card for all the inconvenience and pointing out all the above issues including blocked door which is a fire hazard, old goods being sold, lost sales because not stocked, liability issue such as small plastic balloon type ***** on cakes which is a chocking issue. Previously old items in inventory put on shelf including molded cheese as clerks did not check expiration date. New store manager knows me as I am a paraphalegic in an electric wheelchair. Went to store on Friday, Saturday, Monday. Employees didn't know his hours and ******* told me he starts at 7am. Staff didn't know who he was and when I said store manager they said he starts at 8am and on Sat worked 8am-2pm but he said he works longer hours. Off on Sunday but don't know who is in charge. I know that ***** is helpful. This is the most convenient store for me to shop as given bus route as a paraphalegic.

      Complaint: 23446377



      I am rejecting this response because: the credit should be higher.  They used to have the policy that anything under $5 would be provided free and if over $5 the difference would be provided and a credit would be issued.  Continued misringing and my having to go back and forth to carry my computer to prove it and I have to take the bus and I am a paraphalegic.  Each bus ride one way is $2.  Example:  $1.99 cereal charged at $5.99.  Mushrooms for $4.40 charged at $5.00.  Alcohol charged at $11.99 but on sale for $9.99.  Purchased on old fried chicken and showed to Store Manager Michael McDonald and then had to wait 40 minutes for a new batch.  Digital coupons not working.  They used to have a computer at store so I could pull up account.  Usually I have to make several trips to the store because I can only carry so much in my electric wheelchair.  Cherries for $.97/pound not available.  Other items for sale as per promotion not available. Spending time showing Michael McDonald fire hazard areas.  Baskets not available at front entrance because he said they are stolen.  Three security guards but grocery carts blocking entrance and I am in wheelchair and have to push them aside.  Back room with discounted items expired and I told store mgr they need to be tossed.  Also blocking employee room which is a hazard. They pay for 3 security guards who just cluster together doing nothing except blocking entrance.  Today, I have to go to store again and I have to go when they open at 6am because of Las Vegas heat.  Store inventory not stocked overnight but at 8am and then on shelved by 10am.  Items melt or items unable to be purchased.  Employees don't know who store manager is and I told him.  They said he works only fro 8am-2pm and he said that is not true, he is there at 7am and stays much later.  Sunday is his day off.  Aisle blocked and I have to find other aisles to go down.  I pointed this out to store manager.  Not handicapped accessible which is ADA violation.  New meat manager cuts meat ike HIspanic meat where prime rib is paper thing and not thick like white/asian/black cusdtomers often like.  In Las Vegas, thick cuts of meat is what is sold in casinos.  No coverage and brought to attention of mgr and both cashiers on breaks at same time..  I have helped this manager as best as I could.  He did tell me I could shop at other store on Twain street and I told him that means a bus connection.  If you need me to add more details I can.  Request between $50-$100 store credit.



      Sincerely,



      Douglas Lam

      Greetings ****** ********:
       
      Thank you for your patience while we worked to address your concerns.Our team has attempted to reach you by phone twice but was unable to connect. In the meantime, we want to update you on the steps we've taken to thoroughly review your concerns.
       
      We spoke with all team members who were working that day, including the customer service associate referenced in your report. Hes an older gentleman who has been with us for some time, and he does not recall making the comments in question. He also shared that he doesnt typically use slang or informal language. That said, we took your concern seriously and had a coaching conversation with him to reinforce the importance of maintaining respectful and professional communication at all times.

      We also reviewed the stores security footage from the timeframe provided. There were no unusual interactions or incidents involving our associates and any customers. The video confirmed that the associate remained at the customer service desk during that period. Additionally, our security guard, who primarily observes and does not speak much English, did not appear to engage with any customers in a way that would align with the concern.
       
      We used this opportunity to speak with all our front-end managers to ensure expectations are clearly understood across the board. Weve made it clear that any behavior falling short of our standards will not be tolerated.

      Please feel free to reach back out. Wed be happy to connect and discuss this further if you have any additional details to share.

      My account with ********************** was deactivated without any explanation. I have reached out to their customer service multiple times via web form, email, and phone calls, but have received only a generic response stating:"I apologize if you can't access your account. It looks like an issue is currently preventing access to your account. Unfortunately, I dont have any additional details now, but I am documenting all your feedback."They have not provided a reason for the deactivation, a timeline for resolution, or any steps I can take to regain access. Furthermore, I am unable to create a new account unless I use a different phone number, which is unreasonable and inconvenient.This situation has caused significant frustration and inconvenience, and I am seeking a formal explanation, reinstatement of my account, or at the very least, a clear resolution path.

      On May 17, 2025 I went to an Albertsons store to purchase dog food. I found two large bags of my dogs favorite food and purchased both. When I got home I noticed a coupon on the side of one of the bags for $5 off, and thought, let me save this for next time. But I decided to look at the coupons expiration date because sometimes they dont last long. I was shocked to see that the coupon expired in December of 2023! Then I panicked and looked at the dog food bag, and sure enough it had expired well over 6 months ago, in September of 2024. The concerning thing is that I really dont look at expiration dates on dog food bags - because I expect the stores to keep their inventory up to date. This food that I might have fed my dog if I hadnt randomly seen the expired coupon is at least 2 years old, and well over 6 months expired. Also concerning is I called the Albertsons customer service line and the representative was less than helpful. She said there was nothing she could do and that I had to go back to the store and talk to them directly. I even tried to submit a complaint with her and she kept acting like she couldnt hear me or we had a bad connection. I have full cell and wifi service in my house. It seemed like she was trying to just avoid taking a complaint - and she certainly wasnt trying to offer me any support or even an apology. This is really dangerous to have very very old expired food on the shelves - whether for dogs or humans. Its a legal liability and just terrible customer care.

      On my club card **************, you have my primary number incorrect as it should be ************. The contact number on the profile is listed as that number and is correct. I didn't realize this until I downloaded the app and noticed it was not correct.That means the entirety of my purchase history has not been credited to my account, and is going towards someone's account. Also I have not been receiving associated gas discounts.I am asking for compensation due to this error, as the Pavilions employee incorrectly inputted my phone number when issuing the club card. Also I want the purchase history correctly transferred to this account. The incorrect phone number listed on my account is ************, again the correct number is ************ which is listed as the contact number. Why is there even 2 spaces for different phone numbers in the first place?

      BBBs Complaint Case # as you,.

      Can see below BBB has acknowledge receipt of my complaint! Also I forgot to enclosed the Snap EBT Receipt # that was charged the night of 3/31/25! <As their promotion ******** for the 720pts was on full effect, at time of purchase> ******** I have tolerated far too long, as they even lie and are dishonest To actual date in purchase! ******** as Albertsons is a WC chain! Even the time makes no sense in receipt either! Its displays aprx 5am on 4/1 BUT,..

      Their email acknowledge like mySNAP EBT Receipt is same date as I actually, <created this purchase!> Through today, they have lied <apology in using, this term but, too true on their behalf> about a refund! Their **************** Team is exceptional, on deceptive and stall tactics! <uneducated template email set that just fill in a change recycle in Name and Order #>

      Please update Me w/my BBB Complaint Case # as you, can moving forward! ******** does have the Snap EBT Charge Receipt BUT, I should have included in my BBB complaint as I created it on Thursday, 4/10/25@1435:31 PDT! <and this is my time in the West Coast!> BBB Staff and Case Managers should you, need to submit this Receipt to Albertsons/********

      You, have my full consent to forward and in and w/your discretion part of this email! <or whole email etc!>

      Have a nice day, and be safe!

      Sincerely,

      *****

      SNAP EBT Payment Receipt they initially, charged as my Order was placed and charged!

      I placed a delivery order on 3/28 from Jewel **** app and the order number is *********. It showed delivered but I received nothing. I contacted customer service immediately and was told refund was processing and I should receive it in 5-7 days. However, I still received nothing. I have contacted them multiple times but everyone in customer service just gave me runaround. This is so upsetting. I request to refund for this order at once.

      I am rejecting this response. You said the request was submitted on 3/28. That is true. But can't you see how long it has been?

      The fact is there were already multiple follow up requests when I contact customer service, but the only thing you told me is waiting. And the result is you never process the refund.

      I request a refund at once and stop this runaround.

      Greetings ****, 

      Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your recent order. We understand your frustration and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

      We've reviewed your order and confirmed that it was delivered as per our records, with photographic evidence. Our Order Satisfaction Guarantee focuses on ensuring the quality of your items at the time of delivery. As stated in our policies, we are unable to provide refunds for orders confirmed as delivered when items are reported missing afterward.
       
      We understand this isn't the news you were hoping for. While a refund isn't possible in this case, we would like to explore if there are any other aspects of your order we can assist with.

      I am writing to request an escalation to the management of my gift card investigation case and the current receipt requirement policy. The gift card in question was received as a gift six months ago, and I'm being asked to provide full image of activation slip for investigation. I believe this requirement presents unreasonable challenges for the following reasons: As a gift recipient, I have no direct access to the purchase documentation. The time elapsed (6 months) makes it unrealistic to expect either the purchaser or recipient to retain such documentation. I would appreciate understanding: The rationale behind requiring full image for activation slip. How other gift card recipients typically handle such situations when original receipts are unavailable. Please note that I am a victim of fraudulent activities that occurred in your store where the fraud was enabled by insufficient in-store security controls and monitoring. As a victim, I am now being further burdened with unreasonable documentation requirements.Thank you for your time and consideration.
