      Dealership Free Passes I visited the Park today with 5 other Guests and provided Free Passes that was given to me as a Thank you for New Car purchase at the ****** Dealership in *******. As I provided the Passes at the Booth, inside the person declined my passes rudely and I asked for the Manager and declined gave me push back several times and when the Manager finally showed up, she riped my Passes worth ****** and she had no right to do that in front of me and my whole family, it was so embarrassing. I got the worst customer service treatment and i have been coming to Knotts for over 30 years. It was suppose to be a fun family outing, taking my niece 15 years old and nephew 12 years for the first time and turned out to be a nightmare. The booth Manager did not help us come up with a resolution and did not care at all. She spoke to me rudely when I asked for my passes back and said I ripped them. Inside the booth was dark, and i was not able to see the cashier and the Manager to get their names. Im really disappointed and the incident ruined our visit causing us emotional distress and causing us to pay ****** tickets online, when i had free tickets. Please speak to the Booth Manager and Cashier, Im sure they will remember who I am and I suggest that they need more training in providing better customer service and I need to be compensated for todays visit. Thank you so much, I appreciate a follow up and I have the ripped passes to show you what that rude/unprofessional manager did. Still has not been yet to be resolved and No response from the Vice President yet.

      I am writing to express my disappointment following a recent visit to Knott's Berry Farm on Sunday, 9/15/2024. After packing and walking a long distance, I arrived at the ********* only to find it closed without any prior notice or announcement. This was particularly frustrating as there was no information provided on your website, app, parking lots, or gates about the gates closure.During my visit, I spoke with your employee and the supervisor, ******. I was informed that the gate was closed to prepare for the Scary Farm event, which I understand requires additional manpower. However, I was extremely disappointed when both the employee and ****** refused to allow us entry, despite my explanation of the situation. As a mom with a young child in a stroller, it was challenging to walk to an alternate gate.I observed several other visitors encountering the same issue and leaving in disappointment. Unfortunately, my family and I ended up going back home, feeling disheartened by the experience.

      My child along with several others friends from summer camp were attacked by three unsupervised boys at the lazy river. When the life guard was informed, he told the teachers there was nothing he could do. When the teachers escalated to the security guard and explained what the boys looked like, the guards said they likely knew who they were, informs us that this has been an ongoing issue with nothing done. People need to stop giving this establishment their business if our kids aren't safe! My daughter was pushed under water, then pushed, her leg was grabbed and knee skinned...another child was strangled by these boys...and it is ALARMING your staff did NOTHING about it!

      We were told by a Knotts Berry Farm parking lot employee that if we paid $50 for preferred parking, we would get $50 credited towards buying a season parking pass. So we went to the Information building to purchase the parking season pass and were told that they could only credit us $30. We explained that one of the employees assured us we would be credited the $50, and ***** insisted there was nothing he could do. We then asked to speak to someone else. We then spoke to ***, and she said that they could only credit us the $30. We once again explained how we would not have parked in the preferred parking lot if we were only going to get credited $30 back. We left with no solution, no sort of compensation or refund. It was absolutely disappointing and frustrating as we were misinformed and were the ones to take the monetary loss. I wish I could give my experience at Knotts Berry Farm zero stars, but unfortunately I have to select at least one star. I hope in the future this is made clear and other people visiting Knotts arent robbed of their money too.
