Walgreens — Local services in Town of North Hempstead

I don’t know why I continue to go to this store. Unfriendly manager, not willing to help beyond basic requirements of fulfilling cashier duties. I went to add money to my PayPal account via Cash. Before I went I checked PayPal site to see the maximum amount allowed per day. That total was $1,500 and $500 per transaction. When I asked the cashier to load ANOTHER $500 after we completed the 1st $500. I was told I can not bc PayPal only lets $500 a day. I very nicely said that’s not accurate, PayPal allows $1,500. Then it became “Walgreens” doesn’t allow more than $500. (Mind you this statement was made without even trying, which in the reason for this review) This information was also inaccurate based on Walgreens website. The cashier needed to ask for help during the 1st transaction and that’s understandable. It’s not your everyday transaction. However, considering the cashier wasn’t an expert on how to process the transaction, she immediately became an expert and was absolutely sure on Walgreens limit in processing PayPal cash loads. I nicely asked her to try and was told I can not and literally walked away from me as if I was being dismissed. Not to mention, this was not a blue shirt worker. She was clearly a manager of some sort as her badge said manager on it.

This is the entire problem with “Equal Pay” for everyone. Big Chains and corporations fail in todays business in regards to customer relationships and having pride in what they due. No matter if you are a CEO or “stock room boy” the leaders are suppose to set the tone for the customer experience. Walgreens fails consistently at this location. Because when I see the manager carry themselves this way, that only means it gets worse as you go down the ladder or up the ladder.

“NO ONE CHOSES THE PROFESSION BUT THE INDIVIDUAL”

Everyone has a bad day once in a while but when this seems to be the constant theme it leaves one to question the integrity of the store. Don’t believe me just ask a worker to see if they have any stock in the back of a product. The answer will always be, whatever you see is what we have. Ask if a specific brand offers any benefit over another? You get told, they’re mostly all the same or I’ve been told idk, you’ll have to ask a manager and they walk away. The lack of consumer relationships are at an all time low. They just want you to shop online, so no one has to answer...

I never been to a place so poorly run so lost the ability to do their job properly I was astounded all day I waited for my prescription it was simple I was at the dentist I needed some antibiotics and some Tylenol with codeine. Because a tooth was pulled I was told that there was a delay to my insurance for the Tylenol with codeine it was 12 pills. The prescriptions were placed at 11 a.m. by 4 in the afternoon that is p.m. I called and asked what is the problem they said there was an insurance problem then I said that is impossible all of a sudden then oh there was no problem come by 5 p.m. to pick up my prescriptions I arrived at 5:20 p.m. I was told that not ready yet this is 12 pills that I was told I have to drive around and park and come inside to pick it up. I refuse I was at the drive-in window I told them simply you take 12 pills put them in a vial put the label on it and that's all you need to do. After 15 minutes of arguing with these people and once again I was told I have to go inside or go around the building at least one time to pick up the pills funny they were sitting right there on the counter it's not a ineptness it's not stupidity it's just sheer ignorance of the stupid people that work there be careful of anything you got there and I will never go back there again guaranteed. From now on it's any place else...

I went to pharmacy today at Walgreens, there were two Indian or paki nationality guys and there was an old lady customer in front of me. The two guys were making fun of her by talking in Hindi. It is very rude to talk in any other language at work place making customer uncomfortable. I know Hindi but I will never do this at work place or make any customer feel uncomfortable by talking in another language. When it was my turn I asked for alternate medicine for my infant who was having fever the pharmacist in white and his helper in blue uniform didn’t bother to help and again start talking in Hindi in front of me. These people who are passing judge mental comments about customer should be fired. This is not India this is USA and as a Indian I know that too if you want to make fun of someone in another language talk to your coworker after work once you get home not in front of customer. I will never go this Walgreens again. I told him all meds for infants are out of stock and what is alternate for Tylenol and ibuprofen he didn’t help at all. Can’t believe unempathic people like this become pharmacist not because they care but only for sake of money. Such a...
