    If google will allow me to give it zero stars I would. I went through the drive through at the Escondido location with a coupon for buy one get one free. After paying I noticed I had been charged for two and one was free. After notifying the employee who took my order about this he told me to pull out of the drive through because they were busy, park on the side of the building and he would bring me my refund. After 15-20 minutes of waiting my son makes the journey to the window to enquire about my refund. He returns to me with a copy of the receipt and told me I do not know what I was told. I went to the front counter with the receipt and asked about my refund. and was told by the manager Elisabeth we do not give refunds. I stated it is you casher Angress fought and you still do not give refunds. Elisabeth said yes even if it is our fought we still do not give refunds. I stated the sign outside on the side of the building says no refunds of exchanges without receipt Elisabeth got huffy and kind of barked at me: I told you we do not give refunds! Over the past three weeks I have been calling corporate about this matter and consistently have been told they would contact the upper manager and have him call me. The last time I made a call to corporate I spoke to the supervisor and was told they are supposed to give refunds for food not ordered and this would be escalated to a higher level. Still no return call from these people. I was charged for something I did not order, told to park on the side of the building and wait for a refund, told they do not give refunds. That was their way of getting rid of me, they had no intention's of bringing me my refund. I would have sat in my car parked on the side of the building for the rest of the day, week, month, year, and for the rest of my life. I will never ever eat at a Rally's or Checkers again, nor will I recommend this place to anyone or have anything nice to say.

    This chain has one stand alone location in my area. Spring Lake, NC. It has been surviving there for years. The store could use an update. The fries are usually good. My fish sandwich order was missing the extra tomato I was charged for. The finish of the Sandwich needs work. Fish patties were a bit dried and rubbery. Lettuce was old. The medium sprite was carbonated well and taste good. This location has a lot of potential to be A-1 / Grade-A but it's not. Since there isn't a 2.5 star I'll give it 3 Stars. Would love to visit another location to see how it compares.

    What is going on with this checkers location on 1520 brandon blvd. Manager needs to be checked or replaced, the food is horrible. Checkers used to be my favorite burger fast food. The checker burger was a thin slice of meat ton of sloppy sauce and lettuce saugy bread that gave me stomach ache. The fries were not crispy, the shake lost its quality. Last time I went I said this will be my last time. Over a year later the same no improvement. Worse. Please do something.

    This may be one of the busy Checkers in your chain in Sun City Center, FL. The staff is usually outstanding! Food is hot and great! But for some stupid reason your CDI, inc delivery is always in the way of the drive thru at lunchtime. There were 6 of us standing outside in almost 100 degree heat! Parking is very limited. . You need to plan these drops at other times not during peak lunches. You easily have lost Half of you business today because of this. Please do better

    Person working at the checkers are 3009 W Vine St Kissimmee was not the smartest one in the bunch. Ordered a small hamburger she did not know what that was . So i ordered a Cheese Burger with no cheese. What i got was apiece of meat with cheese on it. Ordered large fry. No fries. So when to put in a review at the company website. Seems this Checkers leaves the Store # off the receipts.

    Went to the chekers on SR 54 thru the drive thru and placed my order for chicken tenders fries mozzarella sticks coke and almost home looked inside and NO CHICKEN TENDERS. I go to this location 6-8 times a week went back and wanted to charge me again. Showed my receipt but they did NOTHING... To many other places to eat no longer going there

    This is more of a notice rather than a complaint. I was going to try Checkers for the first time but I noticed at check-out that they are charging 27% on sales tax. I thought food sales tax is only 7%. So I cancelled the order.

    Paid at 1020pm. Pulled up to hear the two girls discussing my order on what was right. Which the girl who took my order should have had it right. Waited 10 mins for fresh food. Get home my order was wrong. Drove back, waited in line again. To get my order with out then offering to compensate me for my inconvenience,got home to sitdown and eat. All with in an hour. Got home to eat cold fries. Better service at Mc Donalds
