      At 6:30pm on June 18, I picked up my order that I placed online. There were two employees (1 man and 1 woman) at the register. When I gave them my name, the woman admitted that she had just given my order to another customer. Just then, the customer came in with the order prepared for me. There was no apology given to her. The man turns to me and says that they will have to remake my order. Again, no apology. I waited. The man then gives me my order and simply says Here you go. Again, no apology given. I simply stared at him. He could see that I was not responding and asked, What?! I just stared at him. He asked me again and I just shook my head and began to leave. He asked a third time, so I responded, You gave my order to someone else and had to remake my food. So, I had to wait. . His response was Yeah. I waited for him to say more, but he was clueless. I then said, You never apologized once for the error and my inconvenience.. His response was Sorry. I told him, Its very simple! Its called customer service! I then walked out. He simply let me go and didnt even call me (my number is in their system). It was no surprise that when I arrived home, the order was incorrect and poorly prepared.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I want to speak to someone in the corporate office not at the local level!  This is an issue that I have talked to the manager about once before he took care of it but again I have the same problem so it's not being handled at the local level very well.

      Jasons Deli hosted a promotion during February where the customer would receive a free entree reward (up to $12) after completing three purchases. I completed the activities on February 5 and my reward was added to my account; the email notification stated the reward expires in 14 days. I monitored this date of in 14 days which was February 19 and planned to use it by that date. On February 19, I accessed my account and saw the reward was no longer there. I contacted Jasons ********************* immediately. They responded very shortly and said it expired on February 18, which is actually 13 days. I requested the $12 reward be restored as a courtesy request, due to the misleading expiration date and the fact that their website also did not display an expiration date for the reward. I followed up to the *************************** for an update on my request and they have ignored my inquiry, choosing to not respond in any way since February 19. As a result, I am asking for assistance with a resolution to restore the $12 reward.

      Date: 03/03/2025

      Hi ******:

      We are sorry for your experience and have added the reward back on your account and included another one as well. Both rewards are good through March 31, 2025. Please let us know if we can do anything else for your!

      I ordered a chicken salad sandwich with no Pineapple and Almonds, when I got home I checked my sack there was nothing, DONE ON PURPOSE! if you look at their menu it says you can get a sandwich with out pineapple and almonds. They stated , all I ordered was lettuce and tomato and bread, No chicken salad? Who would do that? When they gave me my order they gave me NOTHING? Traveled 10 miles twice to find out why they did this and they claimed I ONLY ordered lettuce, tomatoes, manaios and bread, No chicken salad?? When in fact if you review their menu, A reasonable person would believe they're getting a chicken salad sandwich with no Pineapple or almonds. Corporate office REFUSED TO HELP ME. The manager did give me a sandwich pineapple and almonds. But seemed they spit on it. These people are ridiculous? never ran upon someone thinking like this in my whole life?

      I sent an email to Jason's Deli customer service last week with no response. I called them today and the woman on the phone was so rude. Like I have never been asked this question and you can just call the restaurant directly. The whole point of online ordering is for added convenience AND I accumulate reward points. I told her this glitch should be sent to their IT department to fix their website, but I doubt she did it. So I am writing directly to corporate instead as this is a mass glitch. Your BUILD YOUR OWN SANDWICHES choice is pointless. I cannot add any other meats or cheeses, etc. I want to have a sandwich with roast beef, corned beef, salami, etc. Yet I can only choose only between a plain SALAMI sandwich or plain ROAST BEEF. When you click on CUSTOMIZE. You get other irrelevant options. Please fix your website. In person I am able to truly build my own sandwich.

      Hi ******:

      We are so sorry for the experience you received from ***************** Our goal is to "Make Every Customer Happy" and we apologize if this was not the case. We reached out to our IT Project Manager about your request and below is the response we received regarding selecting additional meats on Build Your Own sandwiches in the online feature.

      With RRT there is not, and we are not adding that option currently. With the move to *** we have discussed this, but haven't finalized the decision. 
      I agree the best solution now is to call the deli. I will keep this in mind as we move forward to Olo. 

      So with our current system you can't add additional meat online, but can call the deli directly. Although we are discussing adding the feature as we move to another system. 

      Thanks for reaching out to us...and hopefully this option will be available soon!

      I placed a to-go order at Jason's Deli in ******* ************** on November 22nd. When I arrived my order was not ready, and they told me they had already started preparing my order and it would be out to me shortly. Me and my son waited for a while. Around 15 minutes. In the time we were waiting the woman behind the register gave us cups and said we could go ahead and get our drinks. So we did so and came back and continued to wait. After it was about the 20/25 minutes of waiting I asked if the order would be out quickly. The woman behind the register made me aware that they were just about to start making my order. She said that they wanted to go ahead and get all the orders for the customers in the restaurant done before they started on to-go orders. After hearing this I was slightly annoyed and decided to cancelled my order and just go get drive thru somewhere. They had not even started preparing my food anyways. I was on my way to a family members that lives four hours away, and I already have young children in the car. No since in wasting extra time. So the woman takes 5 minutes does a bunch of typing. Says she can't give me a cash refund, has to be back to my debit card. Will take **** days. Never received. Call the company 2 weeks later, I spoke with a woman she apologized and said no one ever processed my return and she would get back with me about my refund. I never heard from anyone. I called back, they then decided to tell me that I had already received a refund and it had been put into my banking account. When I denied that and stated that I could provide proof of my bank statement if I needed to, she said give her a few hours and she would call back. I never heard from her again. So the pictures I have attached here are from the dates on the e-mail. Someone reached out to me and said someone from the store would contact me. They did not. I paid $50 for food I didn't get, and I would simply like to have my money back.
