      My date of visit was on July 2nd, 2024. I came inside this particular Dollar General to use my Humana healthy food allowance benefit **** card. I have pet benefits and I attempted to use my pet benefits inside the store and the order was not covered fully.I only paid for $18.50 of my order. I told the ladies at this Dollar General to cancel this order because I didn't have any cash to pay what Humana was not going to pay for. I've made several calls to Dollar General since July 2nd and I've been getting nothing but the runaround from both Dollar General and my insurance company Humana. Nobody wants to credit me the money that's owed to me for my benefits. I've been called and I don't know how many times and I keep getting to run around. I spoke with a district manager named ***** after after Dollar General paged that department more than three times. Somebody finally called me yesterday on 7-15-24 named *****. ***** said I will have to go up to the store and get store credit. I told her I was handicapped. I recently broke my ankle. I will get a ride up there as soon as possible. I was able to get a ride up to Dollar General today on July 16th ******************************************************************** the store today. She was ugly, dark skin with glasses skinny and for some reason ***** answered the phone when this woman called, but when I called her twice she refused to answer the phone and she refused to ********* me in the store and allow me a $18.50 credit and I'm ****** off. I need somebody to deal with this situation cuz they took money fraudulently from my account and have not paid it back. Thank you

      There was a sign posted when entering the ******* nh store of grilling accessories buy obe get one free. I purchased 3 different grilling items because there were signs on every single shelf and items except for the actual items on sale. When I requested a manager he was confused on why 2 of the items weren't discounted. He called another store and they said no it's just for accessories so I returned the items. I voiced my displeasure and stated that that was deceptive and dishonest to label the shelves as such and had I not checked my receipt they would have sold their product at full price even though the signs said otherwise. I did not get my original receipt back just the credit for the items I returned.

      I am rejecting this response because: While it is great to resolve this issue with me, the problem is where this is NOT the first time and it appears that this could be a regular practice with Dollar General, like I stated this happened to me 2x on the same day with different signs, what about the other consumers who went before me and after me. I would like to see what resolution is going to be made corporate wise not just consumer wise. Thank you.

      On Monday, July 15, 2024, I purchased two coffee creamers (one French vanilla and the other Hazelnut). Both were dollar general brand. They were on the regular shelves with the coffee, filters, and powdered *******. I paid with my debit card, and the lady did not give me a paper receipt.It was hot as all get out in the store yesterday when I went in around 7:20pm, most of the coolers were broken and obviously no AC. The chocolate on the shelves was liquid in the package. Anyway, I went home and put the creamers in the fridge to use this morning in my coffee. Got up this morning and made a pot, fixed a cup, took a sip, and nearly vomited. It was awful!!! I tried to call the store, but got no answer so I texted a friend who works there. He stated the phone was broken. I asked about the refund and was told they wouldnt give me a refund (even though they had a record of the transaction because I paid via debit card) but I could exchange the creamers for others. He also stated they werent even supposed to sell those because they were moved from the cooler to the shelf. I want my money back and this store to be held accountable for what they sell to customers.

      Upon receipt of this rebuttal, out of an abundance of care for our customers complaint, I emailed her directly to make sure she was not referring to a card that was different than the cards we were already aware of that she purchased. She responded to my email and although this card was among those we had previously checked, I reached out to our third-party vendor again and they again confirmed this card was activated correctly at the time of purchase, and this card had been redeemed. I also let our customer know that for her protection Sephora will not share the redemption details with us and again advised her to contact ******* and open a fraud claim.

      Today July 7 2024 I visited the DG store on old 21 Hillsboro ******** at approximately 10:00 am. As soon as I entered the store I realized the store still did not have AC and at 10:00 am in July the interior of the store was already about 90 degrees. I asked the one employee about it and she informed me that they have been open ever since it broke and many employees have quit now. The fresh food was spoiling and it was miserable in there. I was there last week and it wasn't working then. So for at least a week if not more those employees have been working in terrible condition. They were told if they call in they will no longer have a job. The young lady on second shift is pregnant approx 7 months. I think it's ridiculous and if they can't get an ac person out to fix it then they need to close the store and give the employees off with pay. There is a DG on every corner across the **. They should be able to keep there AC and other equipment running. Like the coolers that are out at every DG that I have went to in ********, is this a way to save on their electricity bill? IDK but it needs to be looked into. I can deal with coolers being down and some food items not being available because of it. But don't jeopardize your employees to save a few dollars.

      Upon reviewing my receipt, I noticed several items were rung up for more than the advertised price. Newport cigarettes are listed in store for 9.65, but I was charged a full dollar more. I was also not credited the full $3 off for buying 2 packs as advertised in store (the $2 credit is for Doritos). Per several online articles this is a common issue at DG and this practice is ILLEGAL. I demand a gift card to compensate me for my troubles. Also, why are you letting shirtless homeless people in your store?? This was at the store in ********* Fl across from the airport around 9 am 7/6/24. I will be returning to the store to photograph the listed prices compared to my receipt. I will also be notifying the proper authorities if this issue is not resolved

      I went to the newly opened dollar general in *************, my hometown where everyone knows me. Im a disabled veteran with ptsd and many other disabling disorders which unfortunately are crippling sometimes. This absolutely almost sent me into a full flashed panic attack and or black out flash out but fortunately I was able to get myself together and yes I as obviously and visibly upset as I needed to pay my electric bill online so I purchased a 225$ net spend western union prepay card. I went home and called netspend to activate it and was told I had to go all the way back and have the cashier scan it again as it was improperly scanned and that cashier went stupid on me absolutely refusing my business and I cant activate it without it being properly scanned. I kept calling netspend and western union and the bank issued the card and the bank said they have been having complaints about the exact same situation from other customers. Seven times I went back with either netspend or western union on the phone wanting to talk to the cashier and explain how it wasnt properly scanned but she refused to talk to them was very ugly to me vulgar and embarrassing me in front all the patrons in the store who l I knew and then calls the cops and had me banned from the store for absolutely no reason showing the police the receipt she had saying properly scanned. I talked to the general manager there she said I scanned the scad somewhere and the money was stolen by a scammer she lied i cant use it if not properly scanned it is impossible I tried. Then now they think I was scamming them because days later after posting it all over social media a lady informed me that the last 4 of the card didnt match the recipe numbers and was correct so that means this is some type of elaborate scam where once scanned loaded the month went to the real card somewhere instead of the card in its fraudulent package. I never got my electric bill paid lights turned off for weeks and absolutely zero help

      Im unsure if I knew at the time of filing but a lady on ******** after posting it like 4 days after noticed the last four of my card didnt match the last four of the card on the receipt. What does that mean I believe that somewhere along the line from the manufacturer to the time it got to the store the card numbers match a card of unknown origin when scanned instead of my money loaded onto my card it went to another card and my card numbers were fake scam cards I wonder how many people this is happening to because the lady with the bank issuing the cards said that there were many complaints about the exact same thing. Was it done at the manufacture an inside job creating cards with a different number and loading a real card elsewhere and how would they know when that particular card is loaded in order to use the stolen money. I am unsure I am so very confused I am very disappointed in the Dollar General and the whole thing just makes me sick no one like losing money especially someone on a fixed income and literally my last dollars to last a whole month between checks. I was s made to look like the criminal smearing my name and reputation all over the place cops yo my home saying Im banned from the store try r whole time and I swear on everything holy an innocent and disgruntled customer confused and feeling like I was ripped off by the dollar store. I wonder if this was realized yet if so I need my money back and an apologize to me for first of all lying saying I swiped it and a scammer emptied the card when I never got it activated in the first place. Their recipe said it was scanned properly and it was only it went to a real working care where mine was a fraudulent card. I hope this is gottten yo the bottom of I hope the store is innocent as well but they are responsible for selling me a fraudulent card that was part of some sophisticated scam. I dont kneo this is just theory but how else could this be explained and to prove it Im  it the only one who got scammed.

      On June 30, 2024 I tried shopping at Dollar general. When I was checking out I noticed that my coupon for $4 did not come off. The male cashier who was not wearing a name tag and REFUSED to give me his name tried to tell me it came off. I explained to him all of my products and all the coupons my total should have been $22.80 plus tax, but it was ringing up $28.38 ($26.80 plus tax). He kept arguing with me saying that they all came off, finally I said never mind I will not buy any of it. He then told me if I pay for it he can fix it after. So I paid $28.38 with the expectation that he was going to give me $4 back. After I paid he looked at my receipt for a few minutes, even though I was rudely interrupted by the male employee and a older female employee, I explained all of my products and coupons again, he said he couldn't do anything. I was very confused because he said I had to pay for it and then he would fix it, so I told him I will just return everything. He very rudely and aggressively told the old employee to take care of me. So she began to return my products, I was even courteous enough to bring all of the 12 packs of soda to the back of the store and put them where I got them from. When I returned to the cash register the old lady was saying rude and inappropriate comments to me. Then she asked for my id. I asked why I had to give her my id when she has the receipt? She got very aggressive then called her manager she said her manager asked me why I shop here, As I waited patiently for about 10 minutes, and all the unnecessary drama, she refused to give me refund. Then she told the male employee to get my products that were already put back in the shelf, and I need to take the products after she returned them in the system. She threatened to call the police on me. Also they gave me soda boxes that are damaged and have mold on them (not the undamaged boxes that I had). And threw my other products in the cart some not even bagged and crushing everything.

      I have some pictures of the moldy, intentionally damaged products, as well as a picture of the employees who intentionally damaged the products and left a store full of customers to continue to harass me as I was leaving but I am not able to send them for some reason.

      I just received this update and I am very confused. It is saying that the district manager reached out to me and resolved this complaint but I have not been contacted by anyone from Dollar General. I still have all the products that they refused to return and would still like my refund.

      I was finally contacted by the district manager on July 30, 2024. He stated he was authorized to mail me a $30 gift card for my troubles. I have not received it yet and was waiting until I did to close this case. I am very skeptical of receiving the gift card due to the unprofessional behavior I have already been subjected to.
