      On Monday, October 21, I went to Dunkin Donuts to get two croissants and two coffees a place my order on my mobile app picked up the order just to receive two burnt un-eatable items whomever made these new that they should not be serving this to anybody it was approximately eight fortyish, but I can upload my mobile pictures as well. This is ridiculous and they should be ashamed of themselves.

      I have visited the *******, ME Dunkin daily for as long as I can remember. I spend ***** dollars daily here. I always order 10 butter pecan swirl in my latte before heading to work. I unfortunately, rarely get the amount that I paid for. Let me remind you that you have to pay for all extra swirls, these are not free. This allows the employee to make it however they want. I have spoken to Dunkin a few times about this and they offer me a free latte. I think they owe me about 50 free lattes at this point. Save your money for another establishment who actually care about their customers order and can read the actual order correctly. Also, Ive reached out to Dunkin through email and surprise surprise, no response.

      I would like to file a complaint against Dunkin Donuts **************** team and also the ****************** located at *******************************************. On Friday, October 18th, my dad ordered me a Kiwi Watermelon Refresher, but when he brought it home, I noticed the sticker said Kiwi Watermelon and it was all yellow, when I actually ordered a Kiwi Watermelon . They gave me the wrong drink. I contacted Dunkin Donuts **************** and explained that this ****************** location often messes up orders and the entire staff needs to be retrained. Every time customers like me go there, the workers make me repeat my order four times before getting it right. ************** Coordinator, ******, responded and stated that they will not forward my complaint to the Franchise owner. Instead, they requested a copy of my receipt. I explained that they never gave me a receipt, but I do have a picture of the cup. I asked ****** if they would inform the franchise owner, but they did not. Case #******** - [ ref:!00Df404mQE5.!500Uu0DSSDF:ref ]I want Dunkin' Donuts Corporate to inform the franchise owner that customers are complaining that the staff are consistently getting people's orders wrong.

      I placed an order through Dunkin App at around noon on 12/22/2023. When I went to pick up my order, one of the employees told me that nothing in my order was available. Everything had sold out since 9am on that day. So I asked for a full refund, but he said there's no way he can do it. He just told me to contact customer service by myself. And I did email customer service a few times. The representative told me that I would be contacted within two business days, and if not, reply and let them know. Guess what? No one has contacted me, and when I emailed back, representatives kept saying I would be contacted within two business days. Its been almost a year, and I am still waiting for someone to contact me. This is the worst experience I ve ever had with Dunkin Donuts. Here are my questions: If everything had gone since that morning, why the App still let me place that order? Actually I tried multiple pickup locations, that is the only store that said ITEMS ARE AVAILABLE.Why the store did not notify me that everything was sold out? I went to the store half hour after I placed the order. They had enough time to let me know in advance, but they just did nothing.Why do I have to contact customer service, instead of getting a full refund immediately at the store? I went in store, did not get my order, did not get a refund. A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME.Did customer representatives actually read my emails? I said no one contacted me, but they kept replying that I would be contacted within two business days. Looking forward to your reply, thank you.

      I had bought some munchkins at the Dunkin Donuts at the *********** and I got extremely sick foodborne illness, food poisoning, and when I reached out to the company, they said there was no way that the donuts wouldve got me sick. I was vomiting for five hours on the plane, returning back home. They cannot even offer me some type of compensation not even a gift card, they still did not even refund what I paid for the donuts that got me sick. That shows they do not care about their customers. they also told me they dont believe that I got sick for the donuts. Again, they could at least offer me some type of compensation even a gift card, but not even that. Horrible customer service and carelessness for food safety on their end and serving old donuts and handling their food with not the proper care.

      I placed a mobile pickup order for a dozen of donuts in this store in a rainy and windy day. I arrived at the store about 30 minutes after placing the order. When I arrived, the employee said they ran out of donuts. I was not happy about that but I can only said fine refund my order. Its is now three weeks after and expect two emails with cliches and lies, I still havent received my refund. I was really hoping that they can improve the mobile ordering experience but now I believe stores like this dont deserve customer feedback.

      Dear Dunkin' Donuts Corporate,I hope this message finds you well.I am writing to express my profound disappointment with a recent experience at a local Dunkin' Donuts store. This morning, due to issues with the app not allowing me to check out for a morning pickup, I had to drive to the store with my two children, who were very excited for their Halloween buckets.Upon arrival, I ordered two lattes, one Halloween bucket, and requested an additional empty bucket, as we do not need 50 donuts, let alone 100. Unfortunately, I was informed that the District Manager does not allow the sale of empty buckets. This policy seems unreasonable, especially since many families, like mine, have more than one child.Additionally, when we requested an assortment of donuts, we received only cold chocolate and plain glazed donuts. This was disappointing, as it is not what was advertised and certainly not what we were hoping ****** make matters worse, when I called the Corporate number for assistance, one agent lost their connection, and another refused to help or let me speak with a Manager. When I asked for her name, she disconnected the call. This level of service is unacceptable. The only solution she had *** to email the District Manager, whom I was placing a complaint against.I would like to formally place a complaint and request a refund due to the dissatisfaction with this experience. My children were let down by not receiving the Halloween-themed and powdered donuts they were excited about, and I am frustrated because I know other customers have been able to purchase additional buckets without any issues.Thank you for your attention to this matter. I hope to see an improvement in customer service and policies that better cater to families.Receipt Information:Store#****** ******, ******** 10/16/2024 7:21am CHK6871 Drive Thru Sincerely,******** *******

      I placed a $20 order for pickup on Sept 22. When I got home, I saw that everything was either wrong or missing. The website only offered 500 points (equivalent to $5) instead of a refund. I have been contacting customer service daily for a refund but have received no response.
