While I was shopping at your ****************** location here in ******* ********, I heard a few employees on the floor talking about you all are being open for Thanksgiving. I found it to be absurd considering that ******* and ****** is closed for Thanksgiving, I was just assume Meijer would follow suit and close so their team members can spend the time with their families instead of being a puppet in a big machine and work throughout the holidays. Just seems like modern day slavery. I hope Meijer changes their decision about being open or else they can lose me and few others as customers.Business response

I was in a pinch and home with my son so as a busy mom, I placed a delivery order November 2, 2024 for an evening delivery between 8-9. I was given a total estimated at $155 and anticipated to tip on a percentage base. My shopper substituted some things, cancelled many others, and I was up charged by $70 to the total of $223.25 including a delivery fee that a mperk was supposed to cover. I was expecting the total to range but I was predicted a cost around $155 for this order. This is an obscene move by a business that should know better.Business response

We have assisted this consumer several times with this concern. The consumer will call about wanting points back that have already expired. Initially points were provided back to the consumer with an explanation of how expired points work. The consumer has been educated that expired can't continue to be restored when not used in time.Initial Complaint

I purchased a $100 **** gift card at the ************************************************************* store in ************, IN on 05/11/2024. The gift card number under the barcode at the backside is ******************* and the first 9 digits of the redemption code is ********* (see attached pic). I have never used this card, applied it to my account, or provided this code to anyone. When I scratched off the backside and checked the balance, it was $0. I contacted **** customer service, and the agent told me to report it to the ************************ (***). I reported twice to *** but did not receive feedback (Report #: ********* and *********, see attached pic). Then I called *** but was told that *** is only a database that prevents gift card scams but they would not resolve individual cases. I also reported it to the local police office but was told it is almost impossible to get this addressed through the police office because there are not enough agents to handle the case (attached pic for case record). I went to the Meijer store but they said the loading was successful. I also contacted the credit card company but was told since this was an activity initiated by the card owner, they could not do anything. Then I contacted **** again, **** customer service told me that tampering of the card happened between scanning the card and giving the card to you, which means someone stole the card number from the store before the sale, and when I paid it at the checkout, the fraudster knew that it was activated and then used the code on their own **** account (**** confirmed that the user was no longer part of **** after spent money in the gift card, which is a scam). Since the scam happened when the card was in Meijer, Meijer is responsible for keeping the card safe before the sale. As a customer, I tried everything I could do, but the experience was time-consuming and frustrating.Business response
10/18/2024
As of 10/18/24, a refund for $100 was issued for the gift card. An email was sent to the consumer with more information.Customer response

I was at the ************************************ store on September 28, 2024. I scanned my items on the app via scan and go and went to the register. At the register a woman helped me twice, she did the cart check and then took some items off that I was going to pay for in cash at the regular self checkout. Once I checked out at the scan and go, an employee named **** W approached and asked for my receipt. I didnt know where I put it as I was thinking about my other items so went to the regular self checkout and bought the two items the woman had set aside. Once I was done I said thank you to the lady cashier and left. When I was walking toward the door **** started following me and yelling for me. I ignored him because I felt I was being harassed. He stopped me by the exit door and asked me to see my receipt again. I asked why as I had checked out twice. He said maam I just need to see your receipt so we can get you out of here. I said no thank you and walked out. I felt very uncomfortable and harassed by the employee. I had spent $20.04 at the scan and go and another $11 at the self checkout.Business response

In June of 2024, we attempted to use a TJ Maxx gift card at a TJ Maxx store, which was purchased from the Meijer store at ******************************************************************************. The ******* associate advised us that there was no money on the card, even though the credit card receipt validating the purchase was attached and available. ** Maxx advised us that it was not their issue because the card had been purchased at another merchant (Meijer). Since that time, we have made approximately 7 calls to Meijer **************** *************) regarding our complaint (CS1110454). Each time we call, we get the same message that someone is working on it and they will get back to us. That only happened 1 time out of 7 times, and the issue is still not resolved. All we are asking for is that the original credit card be credited for the amount of $40, which was the amount of the original purchase. Or, send us a new gift card in the amount of $40. It should not be this difficult to get resolution for such a simple transaction and we are looking for assistance.Customer response
