Wal mart has been in my area for approx 16 years. it is a very busy store due to it’s proximity of transit, students and households. The washrooms are filthy, the staff are not attentive and rude. The neighbourhood is quite diversive…all classes. I have 2 stories to speak of….firstly, Over the 10 years this store has been here…the line ups are crazy…out of 24 cashes only 4 open often….I happened to go in to buy items one day last fall mid afternoon….there were suits and name badges everywhere..it was clear the suits had come in to do an audit…every department had a manager walking beside a man in a suit (clearly a home office individual)…guess what…every single cash was open that day!! If you have the staff to open all cashes when the big bosses are there than why do you not have them on a regular basis?

You can contact the ethics department of Wal-mart Canada at 1-800-963-8442 or by e-mail at Ethics@wal-mart.com.

You can obtain information for other countries as well in the ethical contact listings on their corporate web-site.

The best strategy is to avoid shopping at Wal-mart if you have any choice.

Received rude service at Norwalk CT Walmart. Store # 2954. 3/6/11
I was there to return a merchandise on a rainy Sunday evening, so the store was not busy at all. Waited for my turn while another customer was being helped. When it was my turn, the employee (Norma) doing returns just completely ignored me and started to walk around the checkout area and talking to other employees. Completely ignored me. When she came back I asked her what is going on and she rudely told me that I was not standing at the right spot and just refused to serve me. I was not informed I was supposed to be in that spot while i was waiting for my turn and the sign that says “the line starts here” was on the bulletin board on the wall and not visible at all unless you are reading all the posted info on he wall. I know she saw me because she looked at me. She could have asked me politely to wait on that spot or say she”s closed and apologized for ignoring me instead of having an attitude on top of it all when I spoke to her about it when she came back. Like I said the store was not busy. There was only another customer there at the return desk aside from myself. I tried sending an email to the Walmart/feedback website and realized I could not. It kept cutting me off after a few hundred words. I tried a few times and was not successful. I know Walmart has low prices but it’s not worth going there to get all this treatment. There are other stores out there.

Undeliverable e-mail, to Walmart…(they don’t do e-mail)

Upon purchasing two photo print books, yesterday, at your Stoney Creek store, I discovered my prints were much smaller than your advertised web size.
Your ad stipulates the public can get photo prints at 4×6” in a self-contained hard cover album for 10.00.
After paying for my books, I discovered my photos had a maximum size, no larger than 3 inches by 4 inches. That is not the inferred size of 4 inches by 6 inches, which is substantial, in the world of photography.
When companies advertise photo prints, they stipulate the size as 4 x 6”, and that is what the public expects and gets. This may be a minor marketing glitch for Walmart, but I am not impressed, at all.

store code: 3096

Upon visiting the Walmart web site, to lodge a complaint, I realized there is no possible way, to send them an email. Nothing, na-da. It seems they have figured out, how to deal with complainers….

I can just imagine that ole Sam Walton is turning over in his grave with the direction his company has taken since he sold out. At the La Crosse, WI, store all the Great Value Seasoned Fries have holes in the bags. The store manager claimed the holes in the bag were necessary so the fries could breath thus preventing ice build-up. I purposely purchased a bag of these GV Fries to send to the home office in Bentonville, AR. The home office responded that the holes in the bag are necessary to prevent the bag from exploding during transport. What a crock of bologna! Needless to say, my Walmart shopping days have ended with the response from the home office.
