Customer Support is nonexistent. I was on hold for fifteen minutes and told I was the 14 in the queue. Five minutes later, I was told I was 17 in queue. Really? I was calling for assistance... See more

MICRO TOXINS harmful if ingested

all Dollar General Freezers coolers have mold, they seem to find it more important to follow through and making sure employees are wearing the appropriate uniform. Rather than paying attention to the unsafe mold growing in their freezers and cooler. Mold spores contaminate food, making it unsafe to eat permeating the taste of the food. Mold thrive so organic matter food provides a perfect environment for it to grow. leading to spoilage to spread to items in your fridge. MICROTOXINS which are harmful if ingested causing respiratory problems. DG 7507 Grissom San Antonio Tx

I went to Dollar General located at 6971 Taft street in Hollywood, Florida and it was disgusting from the Manager's attitude towards the customers to the sight of the entire store. Very very nasty. You need to do better in hiring the unprofessional managers that you do. Also the worker showed the same attitude. This was at 1:45pm on Saturday, August 2025. I would not recommend anyone to do service here . The store itself is a hazard.

Dollar general has one of my worst…

Dollar general has one of my worst reviews. I bought a Moto g 5g from there and they said you need to activate it and bring it back. I activated it and never brought it back since I paid for it. They said bring it back. I showed them my ID. I have a feeling they are using cheaper hardware or something like Walmart. Maybe an RFID tag but I've had problems with it ever since.

I have shopped here since it opened

I have shopped here since it opened. It’s clean & well stocked. The manager embarrassed me in front of customers when 2 different cereals were on end aisle together both 2/$6. I thought you could buy one of each..Kellogg & General Mills. When I tried to buy them, the manager yelled at me when I suggested to change the display so not to be confused. “It stays the way it is!” I’ve been going there since it opened. The address is 85 S. Main St. Munroe Falls, Oh.

Whole store needs better customer service training

The girl in there, Deajiah, was dry and had a little attitude.... didn't greet, didn't smile.I don't believe she wanted to check us out but since daughter just walked straight up to the register she had a blank stare then started ringing the stuff. I asked her was she open and ready that we could just wait for the young man that actually had his light on. With a little attitude she says "I mean... I didnt call her up here but can ring her up." But did manage to mumble "have a good day" that was dry as well. So I returned the energy and said "you too". Then when we were walking away, her to her coworker said, "See! Thats what I'm talkin' bout!"

Poor customer service

Did you go to Dollar general you cannot buy laters without a ID but you can buy a grill later without ID customers got to stand in a long line wait to be waited to be checked out because I can't do self-checkout because accused her customers are stealing product and not ringing it up so you have employees outside smoking cigarettes and people standing along line and they don't play their employees enough that's why they go through so many employees and then you get somebody new and there don't know what's going on and then they can't get their proper help they need because their coworkers outside smoking a cigarette in a store I'm talking about is in McVeytown Pa and don't bother calling the DMS don't want to do nothing either they don't contact you back so you're better off to go to Walmart or any other stores because a Dollar general is a joke half the time

Watch your receipt

I have to really watch my receipt as each time you buy something that is "supposedly" on sale, they charge you more than the sale price. You also have to be good in math, as the receipt gives you the item original price and then subtracts how much you save at the end. Forget buying a lot of stuff on sale, it will take you all day to figure out if you got ripped or not. I like their convenience to my home, but you can't rely on being charged correctly.

False Advertisement

This was the third time I didn't geet the $5 off when you spend $25 on a Saturday. Digital coupon and receipt coupon didn't work. Customer services even said there was a problem. It happened to another person last Saturday as well. They won't correct it. That's false advertising. Never again will I ever spend another dollar with them ever again.

Oakland TN 6016

The store number 6016 in Oakland TN has gone down hill in the last four years. I use to like shopping there. Now you can not get down any of the aisles. It use to look great. Now its a obstacle course. You have to leave your basket at the end of an aisle, because you can not get your basket down it. The ac is out, the coolers on the wall are leaking all over the floor. And I did not see any wet floors signs out by it. the store is a mess.
