      I ordered from a restaurant through Toast with pick up. There was no restaurant at the address and the phone for the restaurant didn't work. I contacted Toast to cancel the transaction and they said it's not their problem, they aren't responsible for any of the restaurants they represent, and I had to contact the restaurant...which isn't there...This is fraud.

      On July 3rd I placed an order on Toast for Bonnies Grille. This restaurant delivered chicken to me that was covered in sauce and severely undercooked. The sandwich I ordered was not as described on the menu, was disgusting and served with withered, wet and cooked lettuce and tomato and covered in so much cheese, the grease had soaked the bread completely. It was not cheese steak either. Both items were not cooked properly and I was sick for 2-3 days and certainly unable to have a holiday. I have repeatedly asked for a supervisor to get involved, which the representative has refused to do. I have also repeatedly called (at least 10x) the restaurant. They always claim that the manager is not there, which I do not believe, but he will not call me back nor will he come to the phone. I will need a full refund of this order. And I will not be utilizing Toast any longer with these **** poor customer service issues.

      We are a small pizza shop that was excited about getting a new POS from Toast POS. However, we were misinformed, by the salesperson, *********, about the scope of the delivery services Toast could offer. ********* told us that with Toast ******** Services wed be able to use our own delivery drivers and utilize Toast ******** Service (which routes all deliveries to DoorDash) ONLY as a back up to our own deliver drivers. During onboarding, we learned that wed be required to route ALL of our deliveries to DoorDash through Toast ******** Services, thereby resulting in the termination of our own delivery drivers, and that wed have to reduce our delivery radius by one mile. **** provided a third party solution to manage our deliveries, for an additional monthly fee. We notified ********* and ToastPOS, 2 weeks prior to them shipping the pos of our intent to cancel yet they shipped it out anyways and charged us $3800. ********* (salesperson) called me and said we werent receiving any refund ($3800) and that she explained to her bosses that she misinformed us, but they werent going to refund us anything. We received ZERO services nor equipment from Toast. So now I have to *** them unfortunately and waste time in small claims court. Yes I was a fool who was ripped off by this company. Stay away.

      On 04.19.2024 I ordered from Smashing East-********** via their platform through (Toast). Because the restaurant wan not open the driver (via Doordash ) my order was cancelled. I contacted the restaurant and was told that my order would be cancelled out and my funds returned. But as of today my funds have not returned. I contacted the restaurant on several occasions to rectify the situation and was told that Toast was supposed to send me funding but store was unable to give that information. I tried again and spoke with store representative and was told again that they were unable to send funding because they did not have funds. I even asked the representative if I needed to take legal recourse and he and another worker laughed and said I guess. I did also did my due diligence and contacted Toast and they stating they are similar to accounting platform and all funds are deposited/credited to vendors account.

      Toast constantly modifies and changes their product and all it does is constantly create problems for our business. Every update creates issues. They have zero customer support. The latest update is creating an issue that our handheld devices do not work and they are charging us a prepaid monthly fee for these devices. We would like a refund on the monthly charge and two new handheld devices that work with their new platform. Toast is quickly becoming a terrible company. They are just in this for the bottom line and are constantly s******* over customers

      Toast payroll failed to account for an additional end of the year payroll which resulted in an incorrect W-2 for me (the owner). I was repeatedly told I was not able to speak to anyone but "the tax department" would take care of it. In reply to an email from a Toast Tax Operations Specialist 1 dated March 8, I outline the further clarifications I needed regarding an IRS notification. I also wrote "Additionally, Toast erred in my W2 as a result of not including an additional payroll run. Although Toast agreed to reissue the W2 weeks ago it still hasnt been done. This will also require an amendment to the quarterly tax returns." There was no reply. I was forced to file an extension on my business and personal tax returns. I have no idea if they are even attempting to correct this error.

      The response is categorically untrue.  Toast has not reached out to me regarding this matter and is not collaborating with me.  Nothing has been resolved and I still don't have a corrected W2.
