PETCO secrets from an insider

I am a former Petco manager, and I've witnessed enough atrocities against animals there to last a lifetime. This company has really gone downhill- in the past few years they went from a company that actually cared somewhat about the animals to only caring about the...

Our store has all the same issues. You forgot to mention the low pay and understandably upset customers that take it out on us.

Cancel automatic delivI only have issue with the difficulty reaching a customer service rep to help me cancel my subscrition. My account is not showing the automatic deliveries, I do not konw why,

3.6

I cannot access my petco account to cancel the automatic deliveries. I tried calling the customer service department several times and have not gotten through the long wait. I do not know why. However, the last automatic payment was sent to paypal@***.com on September 12, 2022. I can provide you the transaction ID paypal@***.com below to help you cancel my automatic deliveries.

User's recommendation: ok company.

I think whoever answered my comment misunderstood completely what I was saying. I don’t get it. Diabetic food has to be prescription, so there is no need to suggest I visit the vet. I objected to

1.0

Diabetic food has to be signed off of and approved by the vet. So there is no involvement on your part on giving medical information. I objected to the language used. Its obvious that customers are dealing with their pets health. I dont think I need to be told that. I would I know if my pet was diabetic unless she was being treated by the vet??? All I wanted was a list of the items you sold and the flavors geared towards diabetic pets.

Bad customer service practices

Hello, i purchased 3 salt water fish from the petco in Brookfield, CT. I took the time to drip acclimate them to my tank for an hour before putting them in the tank. (Mind you, I've been doing salt water tanks for years now and know how to properly do things.) One of...

Non friendly use of Petco App

3.6

Everytime I go into this app they are constantly changing things around and it's confusing!! I had bought bags of cat food because they promised a 8th bag for free and now there is no record of how many I have bought!! I think I'm now going to start going to PetSmart they seem to be more helpful there!!

Auto Ship

1.0

Just wanted someone who cares know that my auto delivery on Aug 20 never showed up. I called last week and was told by MaryJune M that she will reorder and delivery would be August 30th. Well it didnt show up today and I called with no satisfaction except that it will deliver tomorrow. I will never use your store or online delivery. Chewy is way better, always on time and customer service is helpful and I can understand them. Figured I would give you a chance and the 1st auto delivery is messed up. 10 days and still no dog food. Totally unacceptable. People use auto ship for a reason.

Poor customer service

1.0

I prepaid for six puppy training classes at the 839 New York Ave Huntington NY location. I was only able to attend three classes. I was notified the trainer quit and I was going to be contacted by there other trainer to finish out the course. I never heard even after going to the store in person twice. Only to find out second trainer quit, Pecto refuses to give me a refund. Im just getting the run around by the store snd there customer service through Corporate. The manager couldnt even have the decency to call me back. Real great customer service on behalf of Petco.

Never heard back from Petco via email or phone call….

2.1

Update by user Aug 22, 2022

Nothing to update. I never heard anything from Petco other than annoying emails on sales and promos which started this whole headache.

Original review updated by user Aug 22, 2022

Ridiculously frustrating waste of a day trying to place an order for delivery. False advertising on FREE and then raked through the coals trying to get the order through (which never happened)!!! Of course I had to make the trip to the store and they had 1 out of the 6 items I had in my cart! Smh.

User's recommendation: Don’t expect an employee on sales floor to help, they aren’t around. There will be 1 cashier at all times. Even with a line, nobody will be called up to help. Don’t go in looking for cat food that you would normally find in any others stores ( Hello…CATS are PICKY) and nobody I know heard of Tiki Cat or any of the other strange brands.

The worst customer service I have ever experienced! I started called early Sat morning and they tell you the wait is long and they will call you back! The phone never rings and it just leaves a voice mail.. I did this three times before just staying in hold for 45 mins with no answer at all! I am so disgusted! I think the good old days were a million times better than this modern day nonsense where you cant get a live person!

I store shopping is ok. Trying to email customer service is impossible. I have difficulty hearing when I try to talk to customer service in the phone. Email is a better choice.

1.9

Petco emailed me and told me that they dont have an order for repeat delivery. I told them that Petco emailed me with the information that my repeat delivery was scheduled. I made a copy of the repeat delivery email that Petco sent me and I emailed it to them. Have not had a response.

User's recommendation: Don’t really have one. I’m sure anyone with repeat delivery is happy with it.

I already posted a review. I have contacted the company via email and phone calls. Explaining what was happening and the amount of money I had lost. All they did was offer a 20.00$ credit on an order that was 175.00$. Never ever will I buy any food products from them again.
