Horrible experience today from worker and supervisor considering defamation lawsuit

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

The worker was disrespectful, yelled at us, then called the supervisor to back her up for shopping. There was a lack of professionalism; she talked to us as if we were doing something wrong, and the supervisor came with accusations.

Pros:
  • Good prices
Cons:
  • Rude cashier
  • Lack of customer service

Preferred solution: Apology

User's recommendation: Don’t go to the Costco in beyonne New Jersey

Updated by user Jun 10, 2026

Still not resolved!

Original review May 25, 2026

Citi Bank charged me a $30.00 charge for not using the credit card. Don't get sucked in. [PERSON_NAME] and go to [PERSON_NAME]'s.

Loss:
$31

Preferred solution: I canceled my account and will never shop there again. They charged me a 30.00+fee for not using the citi credit card during the month. I plan to warn everyone

User's recommendation: Don't get a Costco citizen credit card. They charge you for not using it.

Thanks for this information! Also, I found out if you plan to close your membership with Costco and if you have an Everywhere Citi Card or vice versa will be closed also. Which you will take a hit to your credit score..

Can’t get to a person to talk to about my membership! I have never been notified if I actually have an account and membership I have received nothing from Costco informing me about my membership or I

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - They took my money but left me unsure of membership.
  • - Communication varied by customer, causing confusion and making the process unreliable.

They could certainly correspond in a different way to each customer! I certainly am not pleased or very happy with this process They received my money with no problem but left me in a bad situation not knowing if I actually had a membership or not. This really does not seem like a very reliable and informative way to handle their business NOT PLEASE AT ALL!!!

Pros:
  • Would be nice if i had my membership
Cons:
  • No communication or customer service representatives

Preferred solution: If I have a membership I would like for it to be activated and started with a date of now

User's recommendation: Be careful what you do with this company!

Question about upcoming delivery

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Washer and dryer delivered on time.
  • - Washer door reversed.
  • - Dryer door reversal and installation are scheduled.

My washer and dryer were delivered on time. The doors were to be reversed on the washer and dryer.

The delivery team ([PERSON_NAME])were able to reverse the washer door. They will have to return to install the dryer.

I had to install a cut off valvre for the gas line. They will return on Wednesday to reverse the dryer door and install it.

Everyone has been very helpful in completing this job.

A delivery that was resolved

I bought two appliances that were going to be delivered on different days. They got it sorted out and Im very happy with the outcome.

User's recommendation: I get appliances for certain reasons, good customer service, and install installers who know what they’re doing

Rude Cashier!!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Cashier at Warehouse in the Villages, FL did not greet and dismissed me.
  • - Richard rushed me, reminded to tap my card, and no thanks after $350.

I recently was at the *** in the Villages, ***. The cashier was very rude and never greeted me but rather dismissed me on every account and reminded me of how to tap my credit card to pay - obviously indicating his only interest was to move me through the line to payment.

This has started to become the STANDARD at Costco. Good products but RUDE Cashiers who just want you to move through the line as quickly as possible - forgoing any greeting or pleasantries at all.

I did not even get a thank you for shopping with us - after spending over $350! This person's name was ***.

You are there to shop, not hold up the line. I see no rudeness.

Guest

One of my main complaints. I'm lucky if I ever get any eye contact--ever.

The ONLY time I ever had any Costco employee look at me, say "hello," to me was as I checked out, once, but that rep only did that to try to get me to go for a membership upgrade.

In other words, to try to get more money from me. I no longer am a Costco customer.

I asked to cancel my subscription 5 years ago and they didn't reply to me.

AI Highlights
  • - Cancellation requested in 01/22; charges continued without authorization.
  • - Retroactive cancellation from January 2022 and full refund of fees.

Subject: Refund Demand: Unauthorized Billing since 01/22

To Costco Management,

I officially requested to cancel my membership in 01/22. You ignored my request and have continued charging me without authorization ever since.

As a Reality Auditor, I have the documented proof of this cancellation request.

I demand:

Immediate retroactive cancellation effective from January 2022.

A full refund of all fees collected from that date to the present.

If this is not resolved within 7 business days, I will initiate a formal dispute through my credit card provider and escalate this to consumer protection authorities.

Regards,

Reality Auditor

I hope you have written confirmation/email FROM Costco confirming cancellation. As far as credit card disputes, you only have 60 days from the date of the statement the charge appears on.

your chicken wasnt bled out enough, the red is just dried and cooked blood. Still not something you want to eat. Should have taken it back.

I can’t complete my order

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Costco won't accept my debit card if I order online, because it is a Discover card. However, I can use it shopping in the physical store. Can't figure this one out!

Pros:
  • Great customer service
Cons:
  • Cannot use my atm card when shopping online because it is a discover

Preferred solution: Being able to use my ATM card which is a Discover card when shopping online at Costco. I'd much prefer to shop online!

User's recommendation: Don't try to shop online with a Discover card.

BAD EXPERIENCE

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Costco in Torrance, CA had no receipt.
  • - We waited 20+ minutes for a duplicate receipt after paying $300+; manager Erick did not escort us out.

We shopped at ***, Ca (***) Costco today. For whatever reason, the cash register did not generate a receipt.

We could not exit with our $300+ of paid for purchases. The manager (***, spelled that way) did not escort us out.

Instead, he sent someone to print a duplicate of our receipt. We had to stand there for over 20 minutes (I on my 2 injured knees, after shopping) until someone showed up with a printout of our goods.

Pros:
  • Good prices
Cons:
  • Bad parking
  • Bad bad customer service

Preferred solution: Apology

User's recommendation: Demand help or immediate refund if this happens.

I agree. Their parking lot is ALWAYS a mess and overcrowded.

Customer service is horrible--never do I get a "Hello," or a smile. Never.

I'm tired of it. I stopped my membership.

If you want an immediate refund, be immediate on returning the items.
