Pepsi
Reviews and Complaints

I bought a 12pack cans of Pepsi from tops market last Friday and one of the cans in the full case had a slit in the top of the can and all the fluid leaked out. So I got 11 full cans of Pepsi and one empty can in the case. I didn't discover it until I had pulled it from my fridge and saw the bottom of the case wet. I also love your products but was angry about this situation, what can we do to rectify this problem. Yours truly john stineman consumer in cheektowaga, NY. The UPC code is001zz-[protected].

Hi I'm really upset, I was always buying your soda mellow yellow I have to drive to a few stores to find mellow yellow, why aren't you carrying it anymore ? ? That's our favorite soda. Please don't stop making it .
Thank you . I really hope you guys don't stop making it or to stop selling it, we only drink pepsi products, thank you for your time in this manner, please get back to me thank you .

Whom every this concerns I purchased 4 24 packs at meijers, I love Pepsi, it's my water & coffee, I was very disappointed when 1st one was flat had no taste, when flat after like 10 minutes of being open, then thought ok bad batch then the 2nd, 3rd, and today open the 4th one and it's the same after opening a can take about 3 drinks then that's about all you can stand it's so flat !
I've never had this happen, but it nasty, I would have returned it but really can't when they are gone . I just kept thinking it's just this can and continue on drinking it but nope it was all 4 24 packs, hopefully I'll get a refund or atleast a explanation of why this is happening, the pop was on sale at meijers,
I'll try to send you the numbers on the can, thank you looking forward to speaking to someone, thank you Judy porter

Hello,

I own the Rivers Bigway Foods, an independent, supplied by FCL in Western Canada. We are located in Rivers, Manitoba and our service office is in Brandon.

I am writing to complain about the service we are receiving as retailers in Western Manitoba.

Pepsi has failed to fill the limited space I am willing to allocate them, because of such poor service, and has been the only product in my store this year to experience contraction. Your Lay's rep will advise that we are up 15% over last year. Our Pepsi sales will have declined as a result of our inexperienced, under trained rep who cannot make meaningful buys. I have attempted to resolve the issue here with "Dave" at Pepsi in Brandon but with no relief. As I understand it, from the employees Pepsi can't retain and are working for Coca Cola, its not a very competetive process for promotion in Brandon here and I never saw anyone, even once, working with my rep, who drove the truck previously and didn't do that to my standard either. His name is Myles, he is timid, shy, uncommunicative and unmotivated by sales. He is hurting your business and mine.

Looks like they need some oversight. I have written to FCL in hopes they might have an interest and advocate on our behalf as well.

Look forward to a response.

Regards,

Cheryl Beilner

Me and my father were headed down martin Luther king blvd. in Houma, LA and this man driving a Pepsi delivery truck cut us off almost causing a wreck and we honked the horn then the driver flipped us off and proceeded to curse at us calling my father a hoe and was saying my father was a bum. The driver also said he would lose his job over a fight saying he doesn't care. The number we seen on the truck was "F81552"

Dear sir,

Subject:-supply from direct segment & discount on sting pack as others.

Hope you are fine and in the best of health.

We are working with pepsi cola (Riaz bottlers) since 30 years and have always tried to promote pepsi in our area. I am very loyal customer of pepsi since the beginning. And company has always been kind on me. I am doing my business since the time when dha did not even exist.

Sir, we have sent the below email to following people mde nauman, mde farooq hussain, sm tariq mehmood, sm tariq iqbal, rsm waleed kamal & director sales nadeem irshad. All problems faced by us being customer of riaz bottlers pvt. Ltd. Are discussed below in detail. Since that almost 80 days have passed but we have not received any reply of the emails. All our problems stand as it is and we are in sheer problem.
Sir, everything happened to me is based on personal grudges and personal agenda of some people against me. As a proof, they also gave zero discount on sting pack on my outlet. Distributor often gives me manual bills. Sir, with due respect, please expedite that why company personnel's is behaving partially with me. I have few cases discussed below; what are the company polices for them. We are also your customers. Company policies are same for everyone.
Sir, I want to inquire that is there any outlet in lahore which is exclusive and mix outlet and has zero discount on sting pack than why I am facing partial behavior by company personnel's.?. The outlets near to me which are mix (Exclusive coke outlets) having discount on all packs are rs 75/=. I am a pre-exclusive & display outlet of pepsi. Why my discount on sting packs is made "zero"?. December month voucher is also stopped one of my outlet.

Noted:-you can check in your system (Data-base) is there any bulk order throughout the last year in 2016 except advance vouchers. Why my outlet outlet is shifted to indirect segment.? Is this shifting policy only for my outlet not for other 2 outlets i. E. Ashiq p/s & jaidi p/s which are also operated by the same company vehicle (In past). My outlet is pepsi displayed outlet. I am working with pepsi cola (Riaz bottlers) direct segment from past 30 years of life. Kindly move my outlets to direct segment because I am also a part of company being a customer because polices made by companies not on priority basis but on equally basis.

And moreover we have not received supply from the past 75 days. No one comes to take our order. Pso places fake orders to make my shop productive in system by the command of ordinates, but I didn't received any supply from last 75 days even he didn't visited my shop (Fake order no#1069494, 1120280, 1127048, 1127044, 1137629, 1137635, 1181547, 1181536 etc even you may check in your system). Yesterday fake order# 1211325, 1211312. Sir I am a advanced outlet how can I amputated the advanced amount if couldn't receive supply. Often of times I am complaining regarding supply issues at complaint cell [protected] (Recorded calls even you may check). This all shows the loyalty and care of the management with the customer and the brand too. We are helpless, kindly resolve our issues in below attached email,
We request you to kindly personally look into this matter and solve at your earliest convenience.
I am emailing to you as my last hope. Hopefully you will respond.
I am attaching pictures of my empty chillers with no supply, manual invoice & messages received by rbl i. E. Fake orders.

Thanks and best regards,

I'm sorry but the whole reason we even decided to even do this promotion ( which we never do and you guys can even look that up) was so that we can get the helmet. I love Pepsi but I'm extremely upset. All together we ordered: 2 New York Jets footballs(4, 500 points each), 2 New York Jets clocks (3, 600 points each), 1 New York Jets mini helmet( which cost 5, 000 points), 1 New York Jets hat (3, 200 points), 1 New York Jets licence plate frame (800 or 500 points), and 1 Carolina Panthers beach towel ( 1, 600 ponits ). Also we ordered all of theses items between October and November. That's more than 4-8 weeks ago. We are so extremely up set that we might stop drinking Diet Pepsi and buying any chips from Frito-Lay because of this. We have been long time Pepsi customer's for over 35 years and 10 years of Frito-Lay at least if not more. It is extremely disappointing that this happened especially since this is our first time participating in any promotion.
Extremely Disappointed,
Virginia Hess

I have bought 3- 12 packs of caffeine free Pepsi at Walmart in Butte, Mt. Several cans of the caffeine free have been flat when I opened them. The cans are soft when you out take it out of the box not firm like they usually are. This has happened before to some 12 packs that I bought. I am really ticked off that you pay that kind of money for your product and I can not drink it.

To Whom This May Concern-
From Jean Reeve 1171 Michael Cres.
Cambridge, Ont. Canada N3H 2R1
I am writing you this email and pleading with the head office to please help us. It is regarding the excessive loud noises from the Frito-Lay plant in Cambridge, Ontario. Before you continue or think anything please understand when we moved here about 5 years ago the property at the back of ours was vacant land, a farmer was working the land. We were told by a Frito-Lay employee that this vacant property was not owned by Frito-Lay. Thus coming from the country we did not mind at all that the farmer was working the land. Everyone we speak to say you purchased your property knowing a factory was close by so be quiet, you made your bed lie in it. This was not the case, it was more quiet back then than now. Now here is what is happening now.
This email is in regards to the loud excessive noise coming from Frito-Lay Cambridge plant 24-7, every day, every evening, and every night. On the last holiday they worked all night long, of course for us it was a living hell then they left at 7 am in the morning. Not much noise during the day. Why would they do this work at night, what are they trying to hide? Anyways bang crashing you try to get some sleep during the night then bang you are woke up, then the beeping noise starts from the heavy trucks. You try to go outside in nice weather during the day like today for instance all I could here was the banging of the trucks and the constant beeping, just awful. As neighbors of Frito-Lay we hear this right thru our house inside and out, we cannot get away from it, sometimes our house shakes it is really bad. It never stops it is driving us crazy. We are seniors this is not healthy for us or anyone else. Sleep deprivation is very very serious health condition at least here in Canada it is. We recently received a letter by direct mail informing us of the project expansion, how nice of them to inform us of this after all their plans were in place and everything was a go, no time for us to reply. We have spoken with Frito-Lay Cambridge, went there for a meeting and contacted them by email but to no avail. Asked if they could please put up a noise barrier wall around their property for all of the neighbors surrounding their property, answer NO, asked if they could please have the trucks they have on contract or own or rental equipped with silencers the white noise back up beepers, answer NO. So here we are asking can you the head office please help us with this serious excessive noise problem. Would you like this, could you live like this? Hope to hear back from you as soon as possible. Sincerely Jean Reeve

P.S. Forgot to mention how we are having breathing problems from all the diesel fumes and dust in the air from the construction site. We sure could use some help with this also. Again thank you for your time. Jean Reeve

At 10:30 this morning 3/13/17 one of your drivers on New Gorham Road westbrook Maine 04092 drove on my road and it's a no 3 axel or larger road! His truck shakes my house! I don't have a truck number but he/she drives my road 1-2 times per week and police are getting involved! Please inform this driver to take the industrial road adjacent to new Gorham road!

I love the pure leaf blue sweet teas. I drink them regularly. However, sometime they have a strange skunky taste like they have been sitting out too long. Last night after a long trip, I went to the Toms gas station, where I live in PA and purchased 4 of them. I got home and and opened one and started to chug...immediately I started to gag and then threw up multiple times. It tasted like a mold or fungus. I looked at the bottle under the light and found a large mass of thick cloudy slimmy looking something in my tea. I threw up again. I dont know how you are storing these teas but these plastic bottles cannot stay unrefrigerated long like before getting a funky taste. I am so discusted right now and my stomach still hurts and feels qweezy. I don't think I will drink another bottle. I would take all four bottles back but I told the cashier I did not need a reciept. I'll send you the bottle or a pic of the slimy stuff massed in the tea if this site allows. I emailed the company but I don't think it will do much good since I see some of these complaints are from way back in 2013 or earlier and this is still going on. I think the company needs an audit for cleanliness and sanitation or shutdown until this is fully resolved. Maybe a lawsuit is the ticket to get thir attention. IDK! I am so sick today and so so so disgusted. This has not been addressed or appropriately taken care of and this contamination is a serious matter. My daughter in law is alergic to mold and fungus and drinks the purple extra sweet teas. She has been having complications with her pregnancies and I pray to god this is not one of the reasons! Sincerely discusted ex customer Stacey.
P.S. Just fix this or do a recall or something so no one else gets sick!

Driving on the freeway 2/24/17 at 5 pm a Pepsi nearly ran us off the road and cut us off. Extremely careless driving and road rage. License plate number 2442707. Looked like a Montana license plate but not completely sure. Then he got on his phone to take photos of us because he saw us doing the same (but not the driver in our vehicle). I hope for a reply as we will not let this go. Our lives were in serious danger over a man who wanted to save himself 3 seconds and cut us off to get in front of us during traffic. Driving the 5 North near Oceanside.

I run a small business and provide drinks to my contractors on a daily basis. Therefore I purchase 30 packs of drinks 3-4 times a week, water, Pepsi and various other types of drinks. However, Pepsi seems to be the favorite.

It is unfortunate that this has happened again. I purchased a 30 pack last week and again, found dented cans that are either full, half full and unopened. I purchase these at Sam's - they will be getting a complaint from me as well.

Please advise - Thank you,

Hi Pepsi,

I bought a bottle of Pepsi from Marriott in Baltimore at Camden Yards (110 S Eutaw St).

I wanted to let you guys know that the soda was completely flat upon opening. I've never experienced this problem before (as I drink sodas from time to time) so I assume it's a carbonation/packaging/bottling issue on your end.

I didn't say anything to the hotel because it's not their fault. However, $3.00 feels like a lot to spend on soda... especially if it's flat.

While exiting a store in Pennsylvania. A Pepsi truck driver James Morris sexually assaulted my 14 yr old daughter. Telling her while grabbing his crotch That he would love to ### her What a pos He is a middle aged white male A woman at the store gave me his name after hearing what he said to my daughter. Pepsi. Please hire some better ppl. This guy James Morris should be fired. He is lucky I didn't press charges against him.

I was driving home today, it is snowing, and the roads are slick. In front of me, a ambulance put it's lights on so I slowed down. This van driver was tail gating me and I was afraid he would hit me. He proceeded to pass me, gave me the middle finger, and came into the Lane in front of me again, so close to me, I think he was hoping I would hit him. This is totally unacceptable, road rage behavior that is going to get someone injured if he is allowed to drive like this. His license plate is CE23838

Between 11:45 a.m. and 12:05 p.m. I was at a Speedway gas station in Mooresville, Indiana. I was with a couple of friends and I was a passenger in the back seat. As we were pulling into the gas station the truck driver seemed to be attempting to park that would block others from parking, so the driver of my vehicle honked the horn and the Pepsi driver pulled around. Well we went inside to get drinks and food and came back outside. The male driver, who was white and had a brown beard or dark colored beard scowled at us as we were getting in the car. He then made a comment to me saying, "You need to teach her how to drive." in a crude way, like he was trying to start an argument. We didn't say anything and just got in the car. Then, upon passing him he gave us another dirty scowl. This guy is supposed to be a Pepsi representative and employee, not a s*** starter. Totally unprofessional. If I wasn't with the senior citizen and her son that I was riding with, I would have walked up to that dude and punched him in his mouth for his crude comment, and a fight would have been on. This driver definitely needs disciplined and trained about trying not to make comments to people he don't even know, because the next person he does that to may pull out a gun and shoot him. I wanted to go back to the gas station and say something to this guy, but I feel making this complaint might be better for all parties involved. I tell you what, Pepsi products are all I drink but I'm not going to be drinking any Pepsi products for quite a while. If Pepsi wants to hire employees like this, then I don't want anything to do with Pepsi!

At 9 am today (1/27/2017), a Pepsi branded delivery truck belonging to your subsidiary New Bern Transport Co, plate Florida 175 TR1, was parked at the bus bay of Commonwealth Ave at St Paul St, Boston, MA, as I was waiting for the bus at that bus stop. There was a cyclist lane outside the bus bay, and I had to step onto the street, past the stopped truck, in order to have line of sight with oncoming vehicles and look out for my bus. This caused me to almost be in a way of cyclists and come close to colliding with some of them. As I was boarding the bus, the driver, wearing a Pepsi uniform, came and was nonchalant about the violation, saying to me, "I got a ticket for it, right?", referring to the orange violation ticket on the windscreen. Doubts about the veracity of the ticket aside, one wonders whether it is company policy to encourage and pay for drivers' parking violations in order to expedite delivery of its goods, endangering the safety of consumers. Pepsi should pay attention to the real danger caused to commuters and make it a policy to clamp down on the practice of parking at bus bays.

Hello,

I bought an 8 pack of Pepsi max at the Tesco express store on Burley Road, Leeds, West Yorkshire.

The cans were rusty staining my bed sheets and furniture.

One of the cans was completely empty.

Please forward compensation monies or vouchers as a loyal customer who wishes to continue with the Pepsi brand over Coca-Cola products.
