Not sure the exact date but it's been almost 3 months now. I made it to the Loves truck stop in *********** around 11 or 12 at night. I bought a Mobile to Go usb/ usb-c charger with dual port ( item ******* for $19 or $20) and the charge cord to go with it. I payed cash for it. I left and the next day I tried to use the dual port and it wouldn't work. I drive trucks so it took about a week or two for be to get back in the area. I asked the Manager that was there if I could get a working port he ask me if I had the receipt but I couldn't find it. He said there is a no return policy but I told him that it wasn't posted anywhere that you can't return it. I don't understand how a business thinks they can sell you something that doesn't work and think they are not obligated to exchange it. I just want a working item. If I can get my money back that's fine also. Please help. I still have the none working port its useless to me. ************Business response

I worked at speedco for (2006-2016) 10 years so I know what goes on, one thing I could always say is we didn't turn customers away just because they don't feel like doing their job. We started a business about a year and a half ago and as an ex employee I thought we should use speedco because it was familiar and I know they will do the job right. I was sorely mistaken,we were told our differential was going to lock up cuz the found a piece of metal while changing the fluid. They said to take it to the shop and don't move it,we spent over $2000 getting the differential done just to tell us that it was nowhere near as extreme as the techs made it out to be, they need to know that the techs are NOT mechanics and should never tell a driver a something if they have no mechanic schooling... we lost out on 4 days of loads also! There has been a quite a few times we called ahead to see the wait time for pm service and the tech (******)always say we don't have series 60 filters.we have been on the lobby when customers call for road srv and they say they don't have anyone til the next day when the guy that does service call is right there laughing. The tech (******) like to talk in front of customers about doing coke and playing video games, talking about it infront of customers in lobby. Also talking about a female that works there saying"she brought it on herself" my only guess would be some kind of harassment,we called again today and for some reason they don't have our filters AGAIN! I know ppl that work there and they said they have the filters and that ****** is just turning ppl away because he feels like it. It's so frustrating because speedco was always decent but this younger entitled group... is messing it up for the hard workers. I'm sure loves don't condone this behavior or lack or customer service or turning business aways but we have Made complaints and nothing has been done thus far,hopefully they will start taking complaints serious in the future.Business response

Brought 4 shocks for a Peterbilt 579. I removed one from the truck for installation. The new shock from loves is shorter than required. I tried to return the product to loves on 2/ 10/24. I was advised I can only return where I bought them. 3/1/24 I went back to the original loves. They refused the return. Corporate refused the return too. Corporate policy is return 30 days will be honored.Business response
03/04/2024
Hello,
The guest was contacted on 3/4/24 and we requested more detail regarding his initial experience from 2/10/24 to see if he tried to replace the shock himself or if we did it for him. We apologized that he was refused the return at both locations and assured him that the matter would be addressed with the staff immediately. His concern was escalated to the district and operations managers over the location and they will address with staff.
Thank you!

On 2/24/2024 at approximately 9:45 am I went inside the store #***, as I have for roughly once a week for the last 2.5 years where I utilize their shower facility. I am a 48 year old, single woman, living off grid, not the choice I made but the adversities I've encountered in recent years didn't leave any options, so while some might say I'm "homeless", I do own property and for nearly 4 years I have been struggling to survive. My progress out there is slow with limited funds and resources. I waited for assistance for a lengthy time, as usual, and once ****** arrived to help we exchanged a brief dialogue and she then walked away, returning with ****** (manager on duty) whom I suppose ****** retrieved the key for the ****** station. I then offered some friendly banter before the transaction was completed. Upon completion I went to the sitting area, as I do every time and waited. I just survived an extremely traumatic experience, (nearly murdered , beat and berated and held hostage on Christmas Eve), and also recently lost my mother. My oldest child is deployed, US Navy, currently in a warzone in the Red Sea. The aforementioned are just a few of the issues that have great weight and burden of stress and grief, but as one might guess, there are other stresses unique to me and my living situation. While I was waiting, minding my own business, fighting my urges to breakdown and cry as I have panic/anxiety, and with the struggles weighing particularly heavy, the anxiety is difficult to manage. I was then approached by ****** and ******, and ****** engaged me in conversation regarding my last visit. I was met with disapproval for my opposing view, but they both exited. Moments later ****** returns, ****** trailing behind, and they proceed to evict me from the premises, revoke shower. ****** said "because y'all can't see eye to eye". I left, full blown panic attack (that once a week shower meant everything to me), I left building, police came, and ****** trespassed meBusiness response

Date: 12/26/2023 Details:I purchased a full tank of gas at Loves truck stop in *******,**.About 3 *********** from the station, my engine began to fail at highway velocity. If not for my quick response there would have been a serious accident. Fortunately, I turned on my hazard lights and directed my vehicle to the shoulder. I was able to get the vehicle restarted and continued down the highway; however, the engine cut out several times. I exited the highway a few miles further, and pulled into a service station. There a mechanic advised that it was bad gas, and assisted me in siphoning the tank, putting in some fuel system cleaner and filling up with a new tank of gas. The engine sputtered a few times afterwards, which I was told was the remnants of the bad gas from Loves, but after a few minutes, I observed that the engine began to operate normally. And the problem did not recur.In early January after returning from my trip to Green ****** ,**. I called the Loves station to lodge a complaint and request a refund for the bad gas.The store manager told me that I would have to call Corporate. Corporate turns out to be an automated system, and there is no way to lodge a complaint or request reimbursement.The only way to submit my complaint was using their website, which I did. After nearly a month and only sporadic communication from Loves, I received an email denying my claim.It was a form letter in which Loves denied any culpability. I repeatedly corresponded with Loves asking for the correct name and address of their statutory agent, so as to serve legal process. This request went unanswered.Business response
