      On 1/8/22 I purchased two boxes of ********** breakfast sandwiches at Dollar General. The shelf price was $6.00 apiece, but they rang up at the register at $6.95 apiece. According to state consumer pricing regulation, "In the event that any consumer commodity electronically scans at the cash register or checkout terminalat a retail price which is higher than the posted retail price, one item of such consumer commodity, up to avalue of twenty dollars, shall be given to the consumer at no cost." A sign stating as such was hanging behind the register facing the cashier. The cashier read the sign out loud to another cashier. The cashier said that they were not responsible for pricing issues and that I would have to come back another time to see the person that could resolve the issue.The above regulation is supposed to be on a sign conspicuously posted at the registers, but instead, the sign only faces the cashier. No customer waiting on line or standing at the register can see that sign. I have been in that store a few times a month for at least the past four months, and I have never seen that sign.I filled out an online complaint form on Dollar General's website on 1/8/22 and got a response on 1/12/22 stating that the incident would be investigated. I went back to the Dollar General store on 1/21/22 and the same cashier told me that I would have to come back another day to see the manager, who was only in for an hour or two at 8:00am. (I worked until 4:00am, so that was not an option for me).Back in October 2021, I bought two pot pies. The shelf price was $2.50 apiece, but they rang up at $3.00 apiece. I was only given the $1.00 refund. I never received the free pot pie.As of today 2/2/22, I have not received any free item or a correct price adjustment. I would like a total refund of $8.95 for the items that I was supposed to receive for free: the remaining $2.00 for the pot pie and $6.95 for the breakfast sandwiches.Thank you for your help.

      Consumer Response /* (2000, 12, 2022/03/09) */ The district manager, *****, contacted me to arrange a gift card for me to be ready for pickup on Sun 3/5. When I went to the store, there was no gift card left for me. I had to call ***** again, and the card was finally given to me when I returned on Wed 3/9. I am satisfied with this resolution.

      The issues myself and others are having with this particular store (827 Junction Highway, Kerrville Texas, XXXXX) is the lack of availability. The manager closes early almost everyday, using the excuse that the register is down when, in fact, it isn't. My family and I went a week or so ago and it was only 6:45 pm and the manager put a sign on the door stating the excuse they always use. As we pulled away we saw two people inside about to be checked out. On the times we catch the store open, the manager is outside smoking, and hes out there for a while. It seems to be an everyday thing, and yes I know people are allowed their breaks but as a manager I believe hes abusing his power. Also, when he is open and actually doing his job, he sighs when anyone asks him anything, my boyfriend walked to the register yesterday and rang the bell and he sighed, he asked him for a pack of cigarettes and he sighed again. Frankly, everyone is getting really tired of this mans poor attitude and the fact that he closes everyday before 7pm when they're supposed to be open until 9pm. That particular Dollar General is our closest one and ever since this guy was placed as manager, that store has been disappointing.

      I went into this store and was looking around for something. While I was looking, I found some pajamas with a sign stating buy one get one free. I knew my brother was looking for a gift for someone so I decided to go home and get in touch with him. He said yes, he would like the. I made a trip back to the ******** store and the sign was still there and there was another sign where there was some other pajama bottoms.. I picked out two and went to the register. The cashier rang the up and it didn't come up as BOGO so I questioned her. She very abruptly said they were not on sale. I asked about the signs and she denied it again. I told her I was going to go double check and I was right. She claimed it was for gloves/mittens, nothing on sign said that. She was very rude and then I asked to talk to a manager, she said I am the manager. I bought one pair out of desperation. I let her know I had never been in a store where they didn't honor their signs. She was rude and didn't care.

      On 11-25-21, went into Dollar General to buy gift cards.Clerk rang up the gift cards. I had not been given the discounts on all gift cards.DG overcharged me $20. I explained this to the clerk. She was in agreement. She attempted to issue a credit at least five times (which took at least 30 minutes). Finally, I said this is not working, can you call someone. She called her Manager. Manager told her there is no returns on gift cards, so no credit can be issued. Although it was agreed that I was overcharged, they told me to come back the next day. I said that is ridiculous, and asked them to issue me a $20 credit. The clerk refused. I asked for them to provide written statement stating the store rung up my transaction incorrectly, and DG owed me $20. She refused. I asked her to call her Manager again. He told her there is no way to issue me a credit, and they are not providing me with a statement that DG owes me $20. I became very upset that they were cheating me. She said to dispute the charge on my credit card, and I and I said that will take 90 days, and she rolled her eyes, and said it would not. She attempted to take the gift cards and my money. She kicked me out of the store. I complained to DG the next day.District Mgr, Angela C*****, called and said that she spoke with the store manager, and the problem was the clerk did not know how to override the transaction to issue my $20 credit, and that the Manager would show her how to do it, and for me to go back in. Really?? This is the same Manager who told her on two different phone conversations that he could not issue me a credit, and nothing they could do. I fear bodily harm and for my life going in that store, and I am not ever. They could issue a credit with my credit card company over the phone, like millions of merchants do. The treatment I received was criminal. There is so much more, but little space to write it. I was threatened and cheated.

      This was not a "programming error." When a company overcharges you, which they admit, they refund you the money. Dollar General threatened and kicked me out of their store and stated they could not refund the money that was due me. This is a horrible store. I accept the response because I was finally reimbursed the money they stole from me. But the fact I had to do all this to get money stolen from me from a national company is despicable.

      I purchased $332.00 in gift cards on 11.25.21 (receipt attached). On Sunday, 9.25.22 my son told me that the $25 Chili's gift No. **************** had never had any money on it. He had tried to use it a couple times and then given up. I tried running the transaction history on the Chili's gift card balance site, but it states "invalid account or the account is closed." Since I purchased it over 6 months ago, and the Chilis website does not provide any transaction history over six months, the site directed me to the issuer - *******. I contacted ******* - email attached, and they provided the history for this card, which card number matches the scan code at the Dollar General, which ******* verifies, I bought at Dollar General, ********************************************************, Store No. *****. ******* verifies the Chili's card is the same gift card number and scan number of the Chilis card I purchased at Dollar General on 11.25.21. They verified that the card is inactive and was never activated by Dollar General, never loaded with any money. I paid for a $25 card, and it was never activated. I contacted Dollar General numerous times, and a District Manager was supposed to return my call, and never did. One of the representatives made an offensive comment that she understands that I believe $25 is a lot of money these days. I have no other option but to file this Complaint. I want my $25 Chilis card I paid for.

      The Complaint in 2021 was because they overcharged me $20.00 for the purchase of the 20 or so gift cards. They reimbursed me for that amount after the complaint was filed. The complaint I just filed yesterday is because one of the gift cards I purchased was never loaded with any money. I bought a blank card for $25.

      Complaint: 18290925

      I am rejecting this response because:   I requested that my $25 Chilli' gift card be refunded either in cash or in the form of a Chilli's gift card for that amount.  That is what I bought (a year ago) and what I wanted.  Dollar General, by registered mail, sent me a gift card to use in their store.  I don't want anything from their store.   I would look like I am hard to please if I do not accept.  Too bad they did not read the complaint.  All I wanted was what I paid for.  All I wanted was a $25 gift card to Chillis - that is what I bought.  I guess I have no choice, but to accept this, as it has taken so many months just to get here.

      This complaint is regarding the ability to purchase a gift card from my local Dollar General Today I went into my local Dollar General located at 1620 E Hallandale Beach Blvd B, Hallandale Beach, FL 33009 I tried to purchase a ****'s gift card that was on sale on thanksgiving day only, and when I gave the store clerk my credit card, I was told that I can only make the purchase with cash. I did not have cash with me at the time and only had a credit & debit card. In the FAQ's on the Dollar General website it says the following: Q. Do you accept credit/debit cards at my local Dollar General store? A. We accept ***************************** credit cards, as well as PIN-based debit cards, in all of our stores. If there is a storewide policy to not accept debit/credit cards it should be posted on the front door. I had the same issue with the same store in August 2020, where the next day the district manager went to the store and clarified with the store manager that credit cards was a valid form of payment for gift cards. The issue now, is that the store manager no longer works there, and the new manager named Pablo would not allow me to complete the purchase with a credit card. I would like the district manager to contact the store manager again and clarify the policy. But I would like Dollar General to honor the discount I was supposed to receive on the ****'s gift card (15% off) as well. Thank you

      I visited the Dollar General in Jacksonville Arkansas address 8315 highway 161 north Little Rock, at 72117. A gentleman who was the manager my cashier. After he checked me out. I entered my phone number on the key pad as it asked. I had the dollar General app pre downloaded on my phone and had this store as my store that I shop at. When I asked him why didn't it apply my coupon he said I don't know it shows you have 37 coupons on here. I said I am not talking about all 37 coupons just the one for $5 off if I spend $25 or more. I then showed him my coupon on the dollar General app and all he could say just look at your receipt. I said so you can't see if it gave me $5 off he shrugs his shoulders. He than pointed to the receipt for me to grab my own receipt i than looked over the receipt and told him it's not giving me my $5 off. He still continues to check out the next person totally avoiding me. He just wanted me to hurry up and pay so he could move on to the next person. I said what about my $5 off as it's advertised he then ignores me and I said never mind I will just have to call corporate office and he says ok. This was about 2:43pm November 13th. This guy does not need to be in management as he does not know how to treat customers. I have attached a copy of my coupon that he would not honor as well as my receipt this could have easily been handled by him but he left me no choice and even welcomed me filling a complaint so here goes. It's not about the measly $5 as I have spent thousands at dollar General it is the principal of the matter.

      Hello. On 06/14/2020, I purchased $1,200 in gift cards from store #00643 in Hazelwood. The very kind manager (Monica) informed me that I was going to possibly be scammed by an internet seller. While still at the register (never leaving the store or transaction), I decided to cancel the purchase. I was credited back $500 of the purchase successfully. Two other transactions (one for $200 and one for $500) were problematic, in that the credit back would not accept my PIN # for my debit card. The cashier and the manager attempted this 3 or possibly 4 times without success. Another clerk came by and tried the reversal by skipping my PIN #. Everyone assured me this would rectify the situation. It did not. The next day on 06/15 I noticed on my bank statement that I was only returned $500 of the $1,200. I contacted Dollar General customer service who told me the remaining $700 wasn't "released" and proceeded to release those transactions. This still did not reflect in my bank statement. I contacted customer services again via phone and then via email. I do have documentation from my emails that I am indeed entitled to a $700 refund. At this point in time, Dollar General has said that the problem lies within my financial institution (**********) and that they are withholding those funds. I have contacted Busey several times who stated they would not or could not withhold such funds and that Dollar General has not transmitted that charge back. I'm a woman of meager means. This $700 is crucial to my finances as I am on a fixed income. I hope you can help me get the money I'm owed. Please feel free to contact me with questions and I do appreciate any assistance you can provide. ************* (***) ********.

Regarding Dollar General response: While I am thankful they have investigated and indeed, there was a refund on 06/17/2021 for $500, there is still an outstanding credit due for two other separate transactions for $200 and $500 respectively. From their documentation, it would seem to reflect that they gave me $700 in cash at the point of cancellation (at the register, never leaving the store) which obviously would not happen. I am still negative $700. I am convinced this is because they processed this refund on my debit card without using my PIN#. Three times before, the cancellation was attempted with that PIN# unsuccessfully. I am sure therein lies the problem. I am a woman of meager means. I wouldn't go through all this without needing a satisfactory resolution and refund of my $700. Thank you for your attention.
