Horrible - Pickup
I ordered my items on 11/13 I go to pickup my items on 11/15. They without any notification decide to change the prices on me when I go to pickup my order. Then the shopper picked up a spoiled ham salad and put it the cart. They decided to up charge me on another item. The on two items different items replaced them with items and never told me that they replaced them and one of the items they gave me I can't ever drink it because the it is a flavor that I don't even like. Then I call the store to try and get things corrected they tell me that I have to drive back the store which is 15 minutes there and back. I said you guys are the ones who made the mistake not me. Why should I have to waste my time. Then they state that I can call the 1-877 number for meijer.com to get refunds. I do that and they still tell me that they can't change the prices from when I originally ordered and state that this is company policy that they can't change the prices back from when I originally ordered. I said how do you explain the shopper picking up a clearly bad item and putting it in my cart. He didn't have an answer and said we will refund you. Then he stated on the up charge he stated well you decided to pick anything for replacement. I said yes but not something that is higher price or that is beyond sale price. Then they replaced the mio for something I don't even like and not even close to what I ordered. I don't like peaches nor would I ever choose peaches. He said well I will give you store credit. I said no, I said you need to refund me, initially he said that he would not do that since I still had the items. I promptly told him, I was not the one who made the mistake. The shoppers did, I shouldn't have to be the one to bear the responsibility. Then he said he would issue a refund. This whole entire process took me about 2 hours to get fixed and still felt really unhappy about it. The manager when I spoke to him seemed like he wanted to argue with me, then trying to make things right. Then, he didn't ask me if there was anything else he could do to make it right, he just hung up the phone. This is not the first time I have had a bad experience with pickup. I have shopped at Krogers, target, and Giant Eagle and have had way less hassles than I ever have at Meijer pickups. Giant Eagle immediately texts you and tells you they are out of and item and lets you choose on what you want to replace it when and they tell you the price right then and there, no surprises. I just don't get why Meijer can't get it right. I'm seriously considering never using Meijer pickup again and shopping less at Meijer. The bad thing is I have been a 20 year customer of Meijer and it just seems like service is getting worse and not better.
