This is in reference to a transaction that occurred at 1819 Fairgrove Church Rd SE in Conover, NC. Time: 0130 on 8/1/2024. I waited over an hour in line waiting for food. 30 minutes of that time after I already paid. I watched multiple vehicles that had already ordered back out of the drive through line due to the excessive wait time. When I did get someone at the window the manager that night proceeded to go on a tangent about how some in his words “crazy man” was trying to report him in reference to the ATM not working. He then took my money, and sauntered off. 15 minutes later the same manager walks up and fills my XL fountain drink 3/4ths full and hands it out to me. I look at it and say this isn’t good enough to which he coldly replies well the fountain machine is down and I used a bottle so I don’t know what you want me to do about it. After another 5 minutes of looking at this MANAGER and explaining this is not what I paid for, he once again saunters off for another 15 minutes. Before coming back to fill up the cup the rest of the way. So in total, nearly an hour and still no hotdog or app sampler. By this time multiple people have backed out and left the drive thru including an on duty police officer. Due to them not coming to the window I had to go inside and demand a refund. To which it once again took over 5 minutes to accomplish while the other employee working stared mouth agape. Over an hour and nothing to show for it, no food, no compensation for the time or gas wasted. If they are unable to fill orders that needs to be documented and they need to not be charging anyone.Business Response

I was refueling at this gas station on July 13th, 2024, and because of a faulty gas hsndle, gasoline gushed out during refueling. Later, the staff and store manager came out to check. They tried using this gas handle many times, and each time the gas handle failed and gasoline sprayed on my car and the ground. The store manager said that she would refund me $10 for the gasoline spilled out to my bank card, but I have not received the refund yet.Business Response

I went to sheetz car wash and It caused damaged to my vehicle. Submitted a complaint and spoke to someone who was only concerened about 1 spot of damage to my vehicle and stated that she found sheetz not liable, but I have way more damage than that one spot. I have brush marks the whole way around my vehicle due to their brush car wash. I did submit photos to them and like I said she looked af one spot and marked that off as none of the damage was caused by them. She also emailed me and said she did not look at video of my vehicle prior to entering to know if the huge gash was from their wash or not. ( I stated that it was there after wash, but wasn't sure if it was there prior or not but I'm pretty sure it wasn't as I didn't hit anything) but there is way more damage that just that spot. She stated I could get a supeona to look at video.Business Response

Dear Ms. ******:
I am
writing in follow-up to Ms. *******’s complaint wherein she alleges that the
car wash at our Butler location damaged her vehicle. A thorough investigation was performed and it
was determined that the damage on Ms. *******’s vehicle was inconsistent with
car wash damage. The car wash brushes are
made from a non-porous soft foam. Ms.
*******’s damage looked as though her vehicle was scraped against
something. Additionally, surveillance
was viewed and multiple vehicles used the car wash before and after Ms. *******
without incident. Also, the car wash does
not show any signs of malfunctioning while Ms. ******* is in the wash.
Because of all of these facts, it was determined that
Sheetz would not be liable for Ms. *******’s damages. Should you require additional information,
feel free to contact me.Sincerely - Christine B*****-Customer Advocate/Litigation Manager

I am very upset that Sheetz change my credit limit when I have been a very excellent customer. I never missed a payment until the 24th of May and I paid on the 29th. I miss my payment due to an accident. That day My credit limit was dropped from 5000.00 to 1700.00 without notice. this is how you treat your customers. I want my credit limit backBusiness Response

Dear Ms. ******:
I
am writing in follow-up to Ms. ****’s complaint wherein she indicates her
credit limit was lowered on her Sheetz credit card. I am sorry to hear that, however, Sheetz is
not responsible for credit limits. The bank
handling the credit card is responsible for the credit limits, checking credit
scores, etc. I would suggest that Ms.
**** reach out to the issuing bank and discuss the issues with them.
I
am sure Ms. **** is a very good customer and we appreciate her business. I am hopeful that she will be able to work
this out with the issuing bank. Thank
you.Sincerely - Christine B***** - Customer Advocate/Litigation Manager

Tonight, may 5th 2024, I went in to sheetz to purchase a drink, cheese bites and 2 packs of cigarettes. When I was paying I noticed that one of my automatic payments had deducted from my account and I was about 75 cents short of being able to pay for it. I told them to give me a minute while I tried to figure something out and a very nice customer behind me gave me the money I was short to cover the transaction. When I turned around to pay, the manager had already canceled the entire transaction and said we had to ring it up again. When I swiped my card this time the transaction was declined. I checked my cash App and sheetz had taken the 19 dollars from my card and it was now showing as pending. That was the only money I had and the staff just looked at me very uncaring and told me that there was nothing they could do and then just stared at me. I ended up having to awkwardly walk out leaving all my items behind because I wasn't able to purchase anything because the staff canceled the transaction over 75 cents after I told them to give me a minute to figure it out. The wouldn't even give me confirmation that the transaction was canceled and there is still nothing on my end saying the money is being refunded to me either. The employees should know these policies and that if they cancel the transaction of someone who is short money on paying, be aware that that person will have no way to pay at all after they take what money they do have have make it so they can't access it. The staff made me feel so embarrassed over the whole thing that I left holding back tears. I now have no way to eat dinner tonight either because of this mess. The least they could do was be kind about it. I even had to leave my 89 cent drink I was in the middle of drinking. I spend so much money with sheetz, I really expected better.
Also I have not been earning it's for any of my transactions for months!Business Response

I went to the Sheetz located at 439 Richmond st Painesville something they opened almost a year ago and when I got home the food was sloppily made, everything was drenched in grease it was so sickening nothing should be drenched in grease that when I squeeze it grease shouldn’t come out of the food. I contacted customer support and they went against my wishes and added someone I did not want which was a $27 ZCard I wanted my full money back not ta ZCard because I will not be visiting Sheetz for a long time after what I had experience Sunday April 28th.Business Response

I went through the Sheetz in Carmichaels and the manager Matthew was not so nice from the first interaction at the drive thru window ! He was so sure he would have no consequences to his actions of being rude. I go to Sheetz once a day sometimes twice and this was the first time I had a manager be as rude as him like he didn’t like his job. Then I came home and lo and behold there was slimed spit on my food . I want a call and I will be calling the news. My card wouldn’t scan and he didn’t give me a receipt for my purchase.Business Response

have found “slimed spit on her food”.
Please have Ms. ***** provide a copy of her receipt or at a minimum, the
date and time of her visit. Also, if Ms.

you again. I look forward to receiving
the requested information.Sincerely - Christine B***** - Customer Advocate/Litigation Manager

I order Sheetz almost every night unfortunately there is always an issue. I order and pay for my purchase and almost every single time there is at least one missing item. I call the store and am directed to contact the delivery service which in turn directs me to Sheetz customer service. Sheetz customer service now told me that an order I had on Sunday March 24, 2024 which includes seven missing items needs to be reviewed and I was given a ticket. Monday March 25, 2024 I placed and paid for my order, I was missing nine marinara sauces and two buckets of mozzarella sticks are undercooked and raw. Customer service again stated that this issue would have to be reviewed and someone would be in contact with me as the first ticket was rectified, I informed her it had not been, no call back, no email, nothing. The representative, Ginger said I would hear back within an hour and a half guaranteed...I'm still waiting! The next step is I am contacting my bank as I paid for two purchases that I did not receive completely yet, Sheetz received my money, completely.Business Response

With respect to the promise of a return call within 1 1/2 hours, I will pull the recording to review and if needed, will talk to the customer service representative that made that promise. These calls are forwarded to me and the customer service representatives know that my turnaround is 12-48 hours.
