      Plain and simple ,open up the restrooms for diabetics and handicapped disabled people. Diabetics don't shave the luxury of holding their pee when we have to go. I almost ****** on my pants because the restroom wasn't open. I had to try to run next door to Marshalls. Their restrooms are open ,why not ****?

      I'm not sure the exact date I purchased but I had got some shoes and noticed the top part has some type of chemical or could be the shoes. It leaves a **** on the top of both of my feet and irritates it even when I washed them

      10/2021 I have been a ******************* shopper for many years, but in the last few months I have been treated horribly by employees at several Ross stores.I tried to get help in jewelry and was told that it closed an hour before the store does. The other salesperson looked surprised to hear that. *******, ** I went to checkout and was told that the register was closed for the evening at 10 min. Before closing.****,** I believe it was because I was wearing a mask due to Covid-19. No employees were wearing masks even though there is still a mask mandate in place.I usually spend between $30 to $100 Per shopping trip.I am tired of this behavior and plan to tell my family and friends to avoid **** as I will be doing.

      On 10/7/2021 I walked into the **** on ******************** in *************, ** to return a couple shirts that were too small and because the stitching was already coming apart. Im extremely frustrated with the return policy at these stores. I received a voucher for a previous return at store #**** even though I had a receipt but returned it 10 days outside of the 30 day return policy. I used that voucher plus $35 in cash to make my purchase. Well today when I tried returning two of the shirts I bought they only wanted to return it via voucher and not cash. This makes no sense, if I used $35 in cash on top of the voucher then **** should not dictate how I get my money back up to $35. The manager was nice and basically said her hands are tied by your system but security was awful. I want my cash back. This is the second time this store has wanted to give me a voucher instead of cash when I have had my receipt.

      I was at the **** store on ***************************************. I had one item to return with a receipt and I was going to purchase one other item of the same price, $11.99. I was asked to show an ID which did. Its a temporary ID issued by the **** I was told by the cashier, ******** and store manager ***** that it was not possible because theres no picture on it. The only other ID with a picture on me was a ****** card. I was told no and to move on. I asked the manager for the store# and the procedure for a complaint. He refused to give me a store number or the procedure on how to start a complaint. He gave the number on the back of a receipt. When I called the number it says its for check inquiries.

      I am rejecting this response because: their email said that the email will be forwarded to the store management fir a response. I never received a response from the store management and I did reply to their email. 

      Sincerely,
