I had been receiving notifications for about a week regarding purchasing a large pizza today and getting a free one on a separate day. I made a purchase on good ***** March 16th for a large pizza expecting to receive the second large pizza for free another day. I never received a coupon for it and reached out to Pizza Hut support about it and then told me they would escalate the concern and have someone call me back. A went by and no one contacted me back. I contacted PH once more and was told that the original ticket had been closed due to a coupon that had been used before (March 2nd) which I had also. ******* explained that even though they are currently still advertising and sending push notifications out to customers that they are willing to honor it. There wasnt any heads up that I could proceed with order but wouldnt receive an additional pizza for another day and this was a tactic to get more money out of me than I would have typically even spent on the random occasions that I do order from PH. The agent admitted that I still may receive push notifications and emails but they wouldnt honor them. I have screenshots attached with dates to prove that these emails were still being sent well after the initial time I ordered that shouldnt have been sent if they didnt intend to honor.Business response

On March 16th, 2024 I ordered a large pizza for Pizza Hut because the app stated "Buy a large pizza, get a 1 topping later for free." I never received that pizza. I called the corporate office on March 21st, 2024 and was told that the deal was only for March 14th, 2024 and they are sorry for any confusion. I stated that is false advertisement and it is still showing on the app as of that day (photos included). ******* told me my concern was sent to upper management and I would get a response in ***** hours. I called again on March 26th, 2024 because I still haven't received a response via email or call. I spoke to *** who stated that my complaint was in a que and they are busy, so someone will get to me but she doesn't know when. First the false advertisement and then a false expectation of getting return contact with a resolution. I shouldn't have to track down what was advertised.Business response

I ordered a large order of pizzas, received a confirmation, and waited. When it did not arrive as scheduled, I called and the guy answered and told me they were closed . Said he had a glitch or something and not to worry I wasn't charged. Meanwhile i told him that the money already came out of my account and he said well sorry there is nothing I can do. Meanwhile I drained my account for a party and had nothing left to order from somewhere else.Business response

They're running a special buy one get one free pizza. I did that and never got the free pizza. I've called three times I've sent emails each time they say they're going to send me my promo code and they never did. I know it's not a big deal but I want what they are advertising because that's false advertising and I'm done with companies doing that.Business response

Original order placed 02/24/24 incident 03/19 confirmation number 3240224204748001314024920 $54.38 Another one 03/17/2024 *************************. $29.89 Pizza Hut has an issue with their app that does not allow people to sign in which is the root that caused this whole problem. They offer providing free pizza if you purchase with them. I called the customer service line and the First **** was helpful very patient working with a supervisor with the issue and my phone died. Called back on friend phone immediately got connected with ******* and I explained I was just working with supervisor and another rep and she disregarded ask for basic info and said case already open give 2-3 days for response and wanted to leave it at that after I asked to speak to higher up she didnt even try. She then hung up in my face saying oh my god which made me way more frustrated then lied putting notes saying I disconnected while I was literally talking mid sentence. Called back again got connected with very nice lady ** who placed me on hold to get me connected with supervisor and then advised he said he about to go on lunch and for me to call back didnt even offer to call me. Mind you this all happened within 30 mins of each other. I proceeded and asked ** if it was just one department, one supervisor and all worked from home using app Teams as resources for communication she said yes so I just asked for the name of supervisor and advised I was reporting to BBB. So instead of ****** the supervisor speaking to me at all to handle the situation or even explain the process he advised he going to lunch after knowing I called 3 separate times just to speak to him.Business response

On Friday, March 1st, 2024, I ordered (1) Medium 1-Topping Pizza, (4) 20 oz sodas(1) Crushed Red Pepper Mini Shaker and (1) ***************** Grated Cheese Mini Shaker. The total amount charged to me for this order was $25.07. When I received my pizza on March 1st, the pie that was delivered to me was extremely cold. The order was placed at 4:58 pm and received around 6:15 pm. So, at the very least, the pizza should have been lukewarm, NOT EXTREMELY COLD. However, the pie I received looked like it had been sitting out in the opening all day.Pizza Hut is currently running a promotion where customers can get a Free Pizza on their next order. After I placed my $25.07 order, I was supposed to receive a link to my app for the free pizza. However, the company did not honor the promotion. When I followed up with Customer Support for ******************** about the poor-quality food that I received and the promotion that wasn't honored, I was told that my concerns would be forwarded to headquarters. It's been over 10 days since my initial complaint, and I still have yet to receive any response from Headquarters and Customer Support. At this time, I would like the Better Business Bureau to assist me in getting a refund in the amount of $25.07 issued back to the debit card that the purchase was made with.Business response
