Hi, Id like to share some feedback about a disappointing experience I had at your ****************************************** location.Before coming in, I called to let the store know that one of the drinks in my previous order had spilled everywhere inside the bag because it had been placed upright in a large plastic bag without proper support. The person I spoke with on the phone was very kind and understanding, which I appreciated. However, when I arrived at the store to resolve the issue, I was helped by a different employee named *******, and the interaction was very unpleasant.When I politely explained the situation, ******* immediately responded with, Well, we didnt serve it like that, in a rude and dismissive tone. She remade the drink, but when handing it to me, she said, This is the same way as the last one, so you better be careful and not drop it, in a very sarcastic and unprofessional manner. I calmly mentioned that I had never seen it packaged that way before, and she replied with, Well, thats how Dunkin Donuts does it, again in a rude tone.What made the situation even more uncomfortable is that another customer who overheard the conversation later told me that they also thought Marissas tone and attitude were extremely rude. I came in respectfully, simply looking to fix an issue that wasnt my fault, and I left feeling disrespected and disappointed.I dont usually file complaints, but I felt this experience needed to be brought to your attention. I hope this feedback helps improve the customer service at this location and reprimand the employee. This happened at 10:00 am on July 4th, 2025.Thank you for your time.Business Response

June 30, 2025 Time: 9:39 am I ordered a Coffee Roll, 2 packs of everything bengals, loaded hash browns, wake-up wraps, 1 classic Donut star spangle, with an ************ wrap, from this location. The Food was very out dated. Both donuts were super hard & stale, the bacons was rock hard to the point my tooth chipped, & I revived 1 pack of everything bagel. The ************ wrap was extremely old with a bad oder. The staff are extremely rude & racist. I kept the Donuts & wrap for evidence because this location has done this way to many times. Where I either dont get what I ordered or the food arrive outdated. I havent ordered from this location since last year prior to this date. I would greatly appreciate it if I could get a refund in the amount of $34.26 by check or by picking it up in person with the food in hand. Ive never gotten a refund on any of the past orders theyve messed up. I spent more than $200 at this location within the last 2 years. I ordered through **** eats but they always refuse refunds.Business Response

I have attempted to reach out to Baskin Robbins twice with no response. The automated response says 48 hours and my original case was opened through the app on 6/22/25 so it has clearly passed that timeframe. Case # ******** and Case # ******** for reference. I joined the rewards program however I did not receive my free scoop in my rewards. I also didnt receive the free scoops for my parents which are in my profile.Business Response

Dear Dunkin Donuts Customer Service,I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction with a recent experience at your location at *************************************************, on June 24th, 2025 at 4:31 PM. The total amount of the transaction was $15.86.From the beginning of the interaction, I felt disrespected and uncomfortable with the way I was treated by a staff member who I believe may go by the name "Bona" or "Rona" (I am unsure of the exact spelling). With all respect to her religion, she was wearing an all-black hijab and working the front counter at the time. When I entered the store, she gave me an unfriendly look and said, What are you looking at? before asking for my order. Her tone and attitude felt unnecessarily rude and confrontational.After placing my order and handing her the payment, I proceeded to the Baskin-Robbins counter to wait for my milkshake. Again, she addressed me with what I perceived as a rude and dismissive tone, asking, What flavor do you want? without any courtesy or professionalism.I understand that everyone can have an off day, but as a paying customer, I expected basic courtesy and respectful service. I was in a hurry at the time and was unable to locate a manager to report the incident in person.Dunkin' states that customer service and satisfaction are top priorities, but unfortunately, my experience did not reflect those values. I felt disrespected and, frankly, discriminated against during this interaction. Im bringing this to your attention not only to share how upsetting the situation was but also to hope that it can be addressed properly to prevent similar experiences for others in the future.I would appreciate a response regarding how this matter will be handled.Business Response

I ordered a dozen donuts around 11:30 pm. The dunkin' app said these donuts were available so we made the purchase. I drive to pick them up and the gentlemen in the drive thru tells me they don't have any donuts. This is a 24/7 location. I drove all the way there, with no message, no call, nothing in advance about them not having any available. I asked for my refund and they told me there was nothing they could do and I would have to call dunkin' customer service. I call the ************************** number. The first rep I spoke with set up a case and apparently the store would reach out to me. I did not receive any phone calls. I called back a few days later and the second rep said they would process my refund and I would have it within the next week or so. I decided to wait 3 weeks but never received my refund. I finally called the ***** number back again today, where I was told the same thing, they have no power to offer me a refund but they would add to the case that has been open for a month for the store to contact me. I finally just contacted the store myself and I was told they did not have the power to send a refund and only the manager could assist with this. I asked to speak with the manager, they said none were there. I asked when the manager will be in, they responded by saying they don't know when and what days the manager comes in. I paid for a dozen donuts, I still do not have my refund, I was given the run around for over a month.Business Response

I mobile ordered on 5/19 to this location. After arriving for pickup, no one was there. I submitted a case with Dunkin customer support for a refund. ** said theyd have someone reach out to me from the store. After 2 weeks of back and forth with customer support about the store not reaching out, nothing has changed. It has now been an additional two weeks and Dunkin customer support is no longer responding to my emails.Business Response

On 6/7/25, I placed a mobile order on the Dunkin app to purchase 4 1lb bags of whole bean coffee, Check #****. When I arrived at the franchisee location at ************************************************************************ I was informed that they did not have the item in stock. I asked for a refund and they said I would have to contact the phone number on the app which I did. The phone number does not connect to a customer service person to speak with so it was useless. I also filed an email complaint, Case # ********, and received a reply on 6/10/25, which stated the following: Hello ******,Thank you for taking the time to contact Dunkin'.We are sorry to hear that you had a bad experience at the Dunkin' restaurant in ************, **. We will alert the franchisee and/or our field operations team immediately to let them know what happened, and we have requested that they follow up with you directly regarding this issue. Please allow two business days for the franchisee or store representative to reach out and address the situation. If you do not receive a follow-up after two business days, please reply to this email to let us know.We have very high standards for guest satisfaction, and we are sorry that the restaurant let you down. We hope youll give Dunkin' another chance and come back again soon.Thanks again for taking time out of your day to let us know.Reinys ************** Coordinator Case #******** I have since followed up twice, letting them know that I have not been contacted and would like this resolved. This is the second time the same problem happened to me in the past month. The first time this happened was on 5/19/25, at ******************************************************************************. In this case the franchisee had 2 bags of whole bean and gave me 2 bags of ground coffee which I wasn't happy about but took it as a substitute. He told me to come back and he would give me the whole bean coffee I ordered and I went back twice and they never had the whole bean coffee (Check 5276)Business Response

I travel a lot and go into many Dunkin Donuts. However, there was one particular ****** that theres a lady her name is ***** I believe shes manager and who always gives me an extremely hard time. When I get coffee from there, its either cold or theres coffee grinds in it theres no way for me to get my money back. Unfortunately, I get it mobile because I have a mobile business. Ive tried to call Duncans corporate and there is absolutely no way to get a hold of them. would like my money back for three extra large coffees that were either too cold or too many grinds in it to drink. Also, brain needs an attitude adjustment in a bad way. She is absolutely horrible manager. Ive seen her yell at her employees on several occasions and next time I will video it and put it on ******** everywhere. Brie needs a ****** in customer service and an attitude adjustmentBusiness Response

my dunkin app stopped working and my cell company stated it was due to Dunkins website - I turned 60 on 4/2 I had a balance on my phone app then received close to $100.00+ in gift cards which were uploaded to the dunkin app then the app just stopped working. I have complained, emailed, called the number (which was with someone I couldn't understand) and also went to 2 different dunkins and was told I had a zero balance (which is untrue) which was humiliating since I went in the morning and a long line was behind meBusiness Response
