The relationship between a customer and a business can last a lifetime. Thanks to Michael Jordan, my first basketball shoes were Nike, and even though it's been a decade since I was involved in the sport, I still choose the brand over its competitors when I need athletic gear.
However, just like in interpersonal relationships, one can make a mistake that leads to a breakup. Reddit user SnakeCharmerSensei asked everyone on the platform to reveal which companies they've sworn off and why, and disappointed consumers immediately started listing their experiences. Here are the most memorable ones.

Walgreens.
I have a handful of monthly medications that need refilling and their pharmacy became such a hugely hassle to deal with. They would be late filling them, couldn't keep the simplest things straight and were criminally understaffed.
I moved all my stuff to a small, local pharmacy a couple of years ago - in fact, I'm just back from it - and they are 180° from Walgreens. They went to the trouble of getting all of the refill dates aligned so I don't have to make 5 trips a month And they are noticeably cheaper.
It's actually a pleasure to go.

Tip screen starts at 20% takeout register.
David 3 weeks ago
I wont shop at any takeout place that has a tip option on the screen as a matter of policy. Tip is for workers with the lower min wage, which are waiter staff in full service, as a way to make up the difference. Takeout employees must be paid min wage ($15/hour where I am), and not tipped employees. You want tips, put out a jar

A dim sum restaurant didn’t let me feed my 2 yo formula as it was “outside food.” We were 5 adults plus my daughter so we ordered enough food for 5 adults but my daughter was hungry so I prepped and bottle and was feeding her when a waiter told me to stop. I didn’t believe him at first and asked to see a manager but the manager came over and confirmed that baby formula was considered “outside food.”.

I dropped my pet off at day care at petsmart and went to pick her up later that day and they wouldn’t give her to me. I was the one that filled out the paperwork that morning and I was the one that dropped her off. But my husband’s name was on the account? So he had to pick her up? Get out of here. We called the cops and they were forced to give me my dog obviously. Won’t shop there obviously.

It was a franchised corporate sandwich shop, an early adopter of "toasted"...
They offered a discount for building residents and I ordered a sandwich. The proprietor berated me that I should not get a discount because I ordered ONLY a sandwich and they don't make any money on them. I responded, "do or don't but don't give me a hard time about it. It was your idea."
I went one more time and ordered the combo special and was refused the discount because it was "already discounted by corporate."
Everyone I knew in the building heard the story.

Anytime Fitness. I paused my membership while out of the country for a month. When I came back they told me I requested it too late (2 weeks before the payment). And they suddenly insisted my payment the month before didn't go through even though I paid that one in cash. I tried to cancel right then and they said they will cancel after I pay for the 2 months. I did just to get out of the contract, filled out the cancellation and had it confirmed through email. Next month they bombard me with payment reminders and call me multiple times. I left a one star review describing all this, suddenly they are apologetic and say they canceled it now and to please remove my review. I left the review up lol.

Went to buy some lumber (40s woman). The pressure treated 2x4s were in the lot, so I told the cashier I wanted 6 of the 10'. She continually asked what "he" wants. When I told her they were for me, for deck repair, she laid down heavier, insisting I needed to double check with who I am buying them for. Finally I lost my patience with the back and forth and snapped and told her that she could either ring me up or I was stealing them. Haven't been back.

I'm Celiac, which I recognize makes me a challenge for restaurants.
We had been recommended a pizza place that served gluten free pizza. So we went. The pizza was great, atmosphere was great, it was overall great.
The owner himself came over to take our payment as our server was either on break or busy. I made sure to tell him it was great and to thank him profusely for offering options for those of us with this specific brand of defective intestine, and he then launched into a whole spiel about how he hated doing it and that "gluten is the point of pizza."
I was completely and totally baffled. On top of the fact that you don't *need* to do it at all, here you have a customer who paying you $150 (wine, appies, cocktails, pizza, dessert, tip) *because you do* for a night out and is basically about to be a customer for a long time and you're s******g all over a big reason why.
Never went back.

I know one clerk doesn't represent your whole brand but I still can't see your logo without reliving that shame.

Spent $20k having Bekins move my household 5 states away. They sub out every piece of the move apparently. The packers they sent looked like they were out on a prison work release. Unknown to us, instead of packing drawer contents carefully, they just upended the drawers into a box and taped it shut.
One of the packers shoved me (I'm female) but we had no choice but to continue (10k down payment made, 1 lease surrendered & new lease signed with 5k in deposits made.)
In the middle of the move, the driver's truck started experiencing difficulty, so he just drove to his home in another state, offloaded our container into a field next to his house in the direct sun and Bekins stopped communicating with us.
After a week and dozens of calls to the move manager assigned to us, I looked up the phone number for the president of Bekins and put my husband on the phone with him. He told him that he either called us by the end of the day with the date we could expect our belongings or he was gonna file a police report for theft. That solved the problem.
Never. Ever. And I mean EVER. Use Bekins.

It was my favorite pizza place, one of the only NY style pizza shops in the area. Sat inside for a slice one day and overheard the owner speaking down to his employees. In fact, he was so loud and it was in the open, the whole place heard him going in on these high schools kids, for requesting scheduled time off work. Friendly banter is one thing, this was not that. I have a low tolerance for disrespect and couldn't go back. I went to the local facebook group for pizza recommendations and saw others posted similar complaints of the owner. The place closed two years later. The other mom & pop pizzeria is thriving 🍕.

I used TurboTax for my federal taxes, and it said state filing was included at no extra charge. Everything looked fine, so I paid. But the next day, I was charged about $100 more.
When I called support, the rep accused me of lying and trying to commit fraud, insisting TurboTax never offered free state filing. I sent screenshots showing otherwise.
I later made a new account to check and discovered the trick: the “Total” page hides an additional cost below a hidden scroll area with no scrollbar. They made it look free, then charged extra.
Since then, I’ve avoided TurboTax completely.

i was standing in line at the walmart self checkout, and a guy in front of me was ringing in what appeared to be a few hundred dollars worth of items. the attendant was on her phone, and he looked right at her, put the stuff in the cart and walked out without paying. when i walked up to the register his order was still there so i tell the attendant what i saw, and she accused me of stealing. said she was calling the police unless i paid for what was on the screen. called management and security, spent about 90 seconds being accused of theft by them, until i slowly pointed to the camera display with the guys face frozen on it and a large red "UNSCANNED ITEM IN BAGGING AREA" banner on it. they reviewed the footage and said "okay you can pay for your items now." i bought my items, walked to the door, and the SAME security guys tried to check my bag, i told them that if they didnt move right now, we were both going through that window. they let me leave and i havent been back.

A Sushi place I used to go to quite often, Owners mother came to work for them. Carrying the Bento box and my rolls, her thumb was in my rice. I complained to the owner and she just shrugged it off, "it's my mom what can you do?". I replied I can never come here again, she didn't believe me as I was a weekly customer. That was my last visit, I ran into the owner a few months later and she exclaimed, what Happened? we miss you. I retold the complaint and she brushed it off again. I called the health department, they shut them down, not for fingers in the food but the food storage was atrocious for fresh fish. The local paper did a write up on how the inspector found various types of fish in a single container cross contaminating and non wrapped or covered in the walkin.
Turns out there were other health complaints about the place and multiple people reporting food poisoning.

My dog got nipped in the ear at a doggy daycare he attended at least once a week for 4 years. The cut was tiny but he was absolutely covered in blood since he’s white and the ears are super sensitive for dogs. They made no attempt to clean him up or at least put a human bandaid on his ear until I got there. The daycare recently had a new management take over so this was the last straw. Then they didn’t even call or text to check up on him after 4 years of loyal service.

My then nine-year old daughter loved playing Webkinz, a game where you buy stuffed animals that come with codes and you can then interact with virtual versions online. She had done extra work and saved up $40 for months to buy some sort of treasure pack, and when she finally purchased it a bug in their software prevented her from receiving the things she had saved so hard to purchase. No biggy, I thought, I'll just contact support and see if they can fix it or, worst case, give her a refund for the loot she didn't get.
I got a constant runaround from their eStore to their online support to their phone support, and in the end they first implied that it was my daughter's fault for not understanding how to work their mobile app, then when I presented the evidence that she had done exactly what they told her to do they sent this:

The sight of my daughter bursting into tears when all of her hard work was wasted because this petty-a*s company couldn't be bothered to fix things is forever seared into my brain.
Part of my career has been presenting on how to create exceptional customer experiences; at this point, I've probably presented to nearly 1,000 CEOs over the last ten years. And every time, I tell them this story, with names, as a cautionary tale. Don't be like Webkinz and the Ganz company that owns them.

SMH.... just give the girl her online plush!!!! Its literally an item that takes up probably 2 MB on your server. She paid $40.... its also kinda like that with Neopets rn, there's new management on the site and they've made the site actually considerably better and brought back the brand, although of course with that they've been adding a ton of paid cosmetic items and such. Their HTML code that they inherited from the previous company is spaghetti and doesnt work well, not necessarily their fault but they cant seem to fix it for the life of them, so paid stuff doesnt work as well... and support is thus overwhelmed with those requests. They've been honestly trying to fix it but its just hard sometimes. Or so I've heard. I've been able to trade for those cosmetics without paying a single penny. W trading

Active.com
I was reviewing my credit card statement and saw a charge for $100-some from active.com. I looked around and discovered that I was being charged my annual fee for being a member of Active Advantage. Turns out I'd signed up for a 5k using Active.com a year before, but I had not wanted to join their annual club. I called them up and finally got to a real human. He was so rude. He kept talking over me, interrupting me constantly.
He maintained that I was responsible for joining their annual club. He said that it's an opt-in program. I assured him that I had not signed up for it. He hung up on me.
I went to their website and looked. Turns out the guy was technically correct - when you sign up for a race, there is a series of TINY check marks in a row, one of which is opting into their club.
I haven't signed up for a race that uses active.com since then. .

Here we go again! I've posted my Hertz experience before... and I'll gladly post it eveytime!
Was in Seattle for work and took a few days off to fly the girlfriend up and go to Olympic National Park over 4th of July weekend. Went to pick up the rental car I had reserved from the local Hertz location and was told by the associate that they didn't have enough cars and the two people in line ahead of me were getting the last two cars they had. I step off to the side to call Hertz corporate while the guy is helping these two people and am told the only cars available in the area are at the airport (a $50 cab ride away) and that it would be over double the cost of what I had reserved online. I asked them to check local places in the area and was assured I would be called back.
I walk back over to talk to the local agent to find he had bailed without saying a single word to me. So at this point I'm 40 minutes from the airport, my girlfriend is getting ready to land, we still had a 2 hour drive to make that night, and no rental car for the trip unless I wanted to pay over double the original cost. I wait for the call back, of course don't get one, and call again 30 minutes later. I get told the same thing and request to speak to a manager who of course "just stepped out but will call you right back when he is in". Another 30 minutes later, another call and this time I tell them I am staying on the line until they connect me with the manager or someone who can get me a car at the price I reserved. The associate told me they couldn't stay on the line with me and promptly hung up.
And to add something I forgot, I was travelling enough for work at the time that I was one of their Hertz Gold Plus blah blah blah rewards people. Literally had rented a car Monday-Friday for ~48 weeks of the year for over a year and a half and that's how I was treated.

Hired a contractor for snow removal, they did a shoddy job so I sent them photos and asked if they could review the price and they never got back to me for months. In the meantime I noticed damage to my car that had been parked all winter. It had obviously been hit by a snow shovel, but I couldn’t prove anything. When they finally followed up on the invoice, I sent them photos of the damage and said “how about we call it even”.

Burrito place i used to go to about twice a month. You basically could build your own burrito/burrito bowl. The last two times I went, they messed up my order twice because the person was not listening to me. The first time, I let it slide because they seemed new as there was another person who was directing them and just ate my wrong order.
The second time I went, and again, they got it wrong with the protein i wanted, cheese and salsa. At one point, I told them what salsa I wanted even pointed to it, and they still chose the wrong one and just rushed through. I got annoyed and told them that its wrong and not what I wanted, and the employee seemed genuinely pissed off when I asked if they could remake it. They implied i should just take it and pay for it as it will go to waste as I dont want the first one. They still messed up the remake but not as bad but I never went back.

As a kid eating with my family at our favorite Chinese restaurant, found a roach (the bug) in my cup of ice cream after eating most of it. Showed it to the waiter, who was dismissive, crediting, "we had the a/c ducts cleaned" with a shrug. Asked for manager, same response. In what world is that an acceptable excuse? Didn't offer any kind of compensation or apology, and our complaint was discrete as to respectfully not cause a scene, so we just paid and left, never to return. Should have contacted the health department, but they closed a couple months anyway (no idea if it was related).

And their ability to remote brick your system for any reason they see fit. Also the Palworld lawsuit where they are trying to patent gameplay staples that were already pretty ancient in the c64 days.

Michael's craft store. I had an online cart full of Christmas deco items, but when I clicked the "Checkout" button, it kept taking me to a link to sign up for a Klarna payment plan. There was no opt-out so I could just pay on my own. I called Michael's for live help but couldn't get past an automated message that they didn't recognize my phone number and kept asking me to enter it manually over and over. Somehow, after I hung up and called again, I managed to get into a queue for live help, but the wait time was 49 minutes. I emptied my cart and bought everything somewhere else.

As a kid eating with my family at our favorite Chinese restaurant, found a roach (the bug) in my cup of ice cream after eating most of it. Showed it to the waiter, who was dismissive, crediting, "we had the a/c ducts cleaned" with a shrug. Asked for manager, same response. In what world is that an acceptable excuse? Didn't offer any kind of compensation or apology, and our complaint was discrete as to respectfully not cause a scene, so we just paid and left, never to return. Should have contacted the health department, but they closed a couple months anyway (no idea if it was related).

So many political issues in America that just don't happen for businesses anywhere else. There's a message in that....

Not strictly true. There’s a sandwich shop / bakery near me who openly supported the local Conservative MP, that in itself isn’t such a big deal, until he blatantly lied about how he would vote in Parliament about HS2 and the damage it was doing to our countryside, his voting record betrayed him and he toed the party line. No more custom for that bakery.
