Crumbl for Negative User Reviews

Will not use again.I had one of the cookies from a pop up food cart and it was really good, so I decided to order ahead. New menu came out on Tuesday, so I ordered delivery from app. 6 cookies came to about $32. Why? Delivery fee plus tip. Expensive, but wanted to surprise her. Ordered for 2:30-3pm delivery. Said it would be here at 2:35. Discovered they used DoorDash (would have ordered directly from there, probably cheaper). 3 o’clock rolls around, shows a second driver and still at store so I called. They hadn’t started making my cookies and said I was 10th in line and no idea 1,2,3 hours until I maybe received. Ordering several days in advance and paying so much for delivery, they should have had it figured out. Currently 3:30 with no updates whatsoever. Would not have used if I knew our whole day could be waiting on something to come. Now it is messing with our Mother’s Day and dinner plans. Must not just me as the nickname for this review “disappointed” was taken..Version: 3.8.13

Terrible appThe app is very glitchy. It rarely works. Additionally when the DoorDash driver picks up your order, you have zero contact with them and are not given any information. My order was picked up by a driver who then proceeded to cancel my order which allowed him to get free cookies that I paid for. Then when I called the store, the employee told me the order was picked up and on the way. After 40 minutes of waiting, I called the store and they told me they could not do anything about it since the deliveries are handled through DoorDash once it gets picked up. The only way I found out my drivers name was “Greg” was from the store. Other than his name, I was given no information to even begin sorting out the problem. I then asked for a refund or a new box of cookies and the employee said no since only the manager could authorize that. I will never be giving them my service again after this encounter. If you’re going to make me use your app then make your app encompassing to where I can at least contact my driver. Terrible customer service as well. Reported this to the better business bureau..Version: 4.2.1

Things to improve please-Last week, app didn’t show weekly flavors for minis, but did this week. - I can’t seem to save choices in my cart and then edit at the end. I was sent back to deciding between catering, pick-up, etc. again. Annoying! -My catering order didn’t give me the option to add another box of different cookies - I would have added another 6 or 12 large cookies for our after-party. Would be nice to continue shopping. -I really prefer to shop anonymously until ready to purchase. I don’t think you need my details just so I can look at the weekly flavors. -Check out did not confirm my pick up date/time/location, and I was afraid to go back through screens since that always wiped out my order. Hope I didn’t mess up! -I wish there was a short description of the cookies on the first screen, and not just a picture. Then you should be able to click to add cookies to you box or click to see more about the flavor and the nutrition information. Instead, I am sent to another screen to see all the details of the cookie flavors (when i actually wanted to see nutritional info), and then drill down again to see nutritional information. The organization is easy to navigate, but it’s slow to go through the screens. And if you back too far, your order is wiped out and you have to start all over again!.Version: 5.2.8

App crashingApp has been crashing for 2 days straight, and unable to open..Version: 6.4.1

Lots to improveThe app is very beautiful and easy to use until you get to the point of needing to place a future order. When you select your store, that store’s hours of operations do not constrain the pickup time selection. So I can select a time when the store isn’t even open, like midnight, yet be restricted on choosing a date when it is open, in my case Saturday. The app is great for promotion however falling short on the primary function allowing me to place a future order. Oddly, when I attempted to place a pickup order later in the evening for a following day, the app restricted me from ordering at all, for any day in the future, because curbside wasn’t available. If the app is to be a primary funnel for online orders for future pickup, it’s failing to consistently operate beyond a current day. This prospective customer’s desire to spend a fair amount of money on cookies for a birthday hinges on a email to the store owner… what’s the point of the app again?.Version: 5.0.4

UkI wish you could do this in the uk.Version: 5.0.4

App CrashingCan’t open the app anymore to order cookies, crashes immediately on opening 😢.Version: 6.4.1

Do not order deliveryThis was the most confusing process ever. I entered my address and it popped up a map and I ordered cookies for delivery. After a short while I got a text message saying my cookies were being prepared and the time they would be delivered. Then I got another text message saying that they were being delivered and if I had to meet my driver to please do so with a mascon. I went to the door and waited for the cookies to be dropped off so I could pick them up but they were never delivered. I called Crumbl who blamed door dash and told me to call them back in 10 minutes. Then I attempted to contact door dash only there was no order number since it was through the crumbl app. Finally I was able to track it through one of the text messages they had sent me and called and messaged the driver with no reply. I then called Crumbl back and they said they could refund me or I could pick them up in the store but they could not re-deliver. Even though I paid a delivery fee so why would I pick them up in the store? The store worker was very unbothered and offered no real solutions he was rude and short. Now I just get to wait 4 to 6 days to see if my money is refunded and my kids have no cookies which they were looking forward to…...Version: 3.9.3

Critical FlawsFirst and foremost this is a review of the app -not- the cookies! As you can probably gather by the positive review people love Crumbl cookies. The app itself though has a major issue when it comes to curbside pick-up ordering. (This is a big deal in Chicagoland as the line is 30+ minutes long on Saturday.) The app uses your GPS location to determine which Crumbl location is your default pick up spot every time you order. If this particular location has an error or curbside pickup is fully booked (usually an error as well) it drops you out of the order process and you have to try again. There is no way to change the location for pickup because after you get the error message you are dropped out to the main menu. For some this may matter but when you are roughly the same distance from 2 locations this becomes very annoying. Please just let us choose our pickup location… (There is also another error that results in a similar loop but I cannot recall what I did to get caught up in that one).Version: 3.9.3

Nice Experience—Just fix the bugs!🙃💕The app is nice and convenient, especially when I live in Maryland and the closest store near me is in Virginia. Three stars because when I first ordered I was scared because the app had said that the address I put in was incorrect (which is not true because how are they gonna tell me where I live😂), I ordered anyways and waited for my order and low and behold it was safely delivered to me. Delivery took about an hour which is understandable because Virginia is a bit far from Maryland. Anyways for my first time ordering and buying Crumbl cookies my experience was pretty good. The only thing I would say is that they should work on the bugs on the app cuz it freezes from time to time and sometimes asks for the address more than once which is all pretty annoying and just not user friendly..Version: 5.9.6

San Tan Valley store. DON’T GO THERE!!!We tried this store tonight instead of our usual but will never go there again! Out of 3 of 6 flavors like Choc chip, PB choc Chop and German Choc cake. They also did not have any Ice Cream! Told the hostess how disappointing the selections were and just shrugged her shoulders and said those were the most popular (tell you something?). Ordered 1 I didn’t want and then she showed me the frame to add tip! Nice guy -I tipped! Then as we walked to get our order they rolled out a cart with 7 trays of cookies fresh out of the oven. Told the server we would like one of those and she boxed one up but said since the one we ordered had been put in the box and put on the counter...she could not take it back. WHAT!!!!! She was the only one that touched it... is there something wrong with the counter we should know about. I suggested that if the have cookies coming out to simply ask if we would like to wait. And we would have waited 15 minutes at least. Don’t go to this store. There were 6 people working. Maybe they should communicate with each other and host needs to represent the buyer!.Version: 3.8.14

TipWhy are you putting a stupid automatic tip of $3? Noway will I give a tip for someone putting cookies in a box.This isn’t a restaurant. Stop being so greedy it’s not a good look.Version: 6.4.1

I know you’re busy but….I knew the new store would be busy which is why I decided to download app and order for delivery. I wasn’t aware it would be thru Grub Hub so I was confused when the driver called me (angry) that the store was so busy and my order wasn’t ready. He ended up cancelling it which was understandable, a Grub Hub driver can’t wait three plus hours for an order. It’s even understandable that the store was too busy to get to my order but when I called this morning the person I spoke to didn’t even apologize. He just told me I could cancel the order and I’d be refunded within 5 business days and if I still wanted the order he said I would just have to do a new one thru the app. Which I did because my family was real excited about these cookies lol. So now I’m out $100 on cookies and not super confident they will actually be delivered. I understand the store is super busy, I was just surprised that the person I spoke to today didn’t handle it a little better. I also think it should be clear on the app or online that you do deliver but it will be thru Grub Hub and not their own driver..Version: 4.0.3

Broken rewards featureCrumbs don’t increase despite completing tasks meant to do just that.Version: 6.3.0

Opt-out Tips?!The app works alright, but I am giving them only 2 stars because I feel like they’re trying to deceive people into leaving tips on accident like just happened to me today. Here’s what I mean: Near the end of the purchase, they give you an opportunity to give the employees a monetary tip ... but it’s opt-out style, not opt-in. So if you’re trying to hurry and get your order placed and don’t pay close attention, you might get charged an extra $2 that you didn’t intend to. This is the only place I can think of that has an opt-out style like this: it doesn’t show that they are going to charge it to you until they also show you, MUCH more prominently, the Apple Pay button to complete the purchase. So if we’re in a hurry, we’re thinking, “Finally! After all those questions about my order, let’s wrap this up!” So we hurry to tap the Apple Pay button and double-click the side button to pay. Then, 😒 disappointment as I realize I just made a mistake, with the help of their app developers. Again, I feel like they’re trying to deceive people into leaving tips on accident like just happened to me today..Version: 3.7.0

There are some flaws…I love Crumbl cookies, but there are some definite flaws in the app. First off, it makes you turn on location services. This is a problem because if you send someone else to pickup your curbside order, the app won’t allow you to text “I’m Here” even if the person you sent is at the store. Second off, if you order a delivery on Sunday, the app allows you to place your order although the cookie menu hasn’t been released yet. There is no way on the app to later specify what cookies to put in the order nor to cancel the order, the only way to fix it is to call the store. Lastly, if you are in another state ordering the Crumbl cookies as a gift, they deliver based on your local time. For example, I am in Alaska and I ordered some cookies from an Oregon store to be delivered as a gift at 10:30. Because Alaska is one hour behind of Oregon, the cookies weren’t delivered until 11:30 their time. This is illogical, as to why would I want the cookies delivered on my time, when ordering from another store in a different time zone..Version: 3.9.2

App is brokenUpdate: I contacted support AGAIN as Crumbl told me to do last week. Now they are telling me that they can not access - so no skip or cancelling - subscriptions anymore. So now I am just to be charged $50 every week for cookies that I may not want - since I can not pick flavors if I chose to get that weeks - until they take their time to fix the app????? Second week in a row that the app subscription is broken. They even updated the app and did not include this fix. How does that make sense?!?! I received a text and email to pick my cookies for the two subscriptions I have. I went to the app and when I go to manage subscriptions, it acts as if I do not have any. The option to sign up is grayed out but I I can sign up if I go to the order section. Which is odd since there is a limit on the number of subscriptions you can have. So do I have an active subscription or not??? Will I be charged???? It seems like the most recent update messed everything up. I tried reaching out to them and heard nothing. Even tried social media. So yay..Version: 5.11.1

LackingThere isn’t a way to make multiple single box orders of one specific flavor without going through the entire process again (no qty button), so instead of being able to order 2 dozen individually boxed cookies of the same flavor, I had to call the store and they had me order 2 dozen (2party boxes) and put a comment in the notes box for what I actually wanted- they were very helpful-but now when I go to pick them up I have to be stressed about whether it will be done how I’m wanting them AND having to pay extra/again since I’m wanting them individually boxed and that’s not how I was able to purchase them via the app. Again, I could’ve done the entire process 24 different times, but it’s not very time efficient, so a simple adding of a “qty” button would be super useful on the app/website..Version: 3.8.13

Crumbl’s pre ordering option makes no senseSeriously. I would give the app 5 stars if crumbl didn’t consistently chooses the worst possible decisions to screw over their online customer base as often as possible. Order a cookie several hours in advance because you live far away and/or busy during the day? Well, according to crumbl, this means checking in AT the pickup time and waiting an additional 10-20 minutes just to prep your order. Order a cookie several hours in advance and it gets sold out by the time you pick up your order? Well, according to crumbl, since they never started preparing your order until your pick up time and because you lacked future vision, too bad. They’ll offer to exchange your cookies for another flavor for free, but still charge you the full amount regardless. Oh, and they might also toss in a free cookie voucher to shut you up. (Hint: never order a popular flavor in advance on a Monday night. You’re gonna have a bad time.) Finally, the fact they automatically add a $3 tip that you have to manually get rid of each time you order? Honestly you’d think the company was close to bankruptcy. As it is, they just come off as greedy. Their cookies are great but the company ain’t. Do better, crumbl..Version: 4.4.6

Don’t use this App!Terrible service! I ordered cookies from the app, the store did not have the cookies I wanted. Not a big deal, just cancel the order. No there is no way on the app to cancel it. The number to the store wouldn’t work I called it seven times. On the app it still showed being out for delivery. Also it doesn’t link with door dash so you can’t report a problem on that app either. When you call it says you can text an 844 # but it took hours for a response. And they can’t even do anything about a refund anyways The number said it could offer me vouchers for future purchase but never did. They said someone from the store would reach out to me but nobody ever did. I called back the next day and they can only refund the cookies not the other fees since it’s through door dash not them. And I can’t contact door dash about a refund because there is no record of it on the app. If you want crumble cookies don’t use this app. Just order them on door dash instead so if there is an issue it can be fixed. Haha hopefully nobody else has any other problems because Crumble doesn’t try and make it right when it’s all said and done..Version: 3.9.3

App won’t openIt used to work. Not anymore. Useless..Version: 6.4.1

Not available in AustraliaSo I been seeing some review video on tiktok and wanted to try the cookies soo much. I downloaded the app and try to order but it ask for phone number. I wanted to Australia phone number cuz I’m from Australia but it didn’t let me change. It only ask for US number. So I’m wondering if there is anyway I can order from Australia?.Version: 3.9.4

Rude serviceI had just had major surgery and was feeling overwhelmed and it was my actual birthday. So I placed an order of 6 pack and a cookie cutter had it delivered to me. Well my order was messed up, they didn’t send my cookie cutter and had the wrong cookies. The DoorDash person was kind and stated she would go back and get the missing cookie cutter as well as get the correct cookies if the store was willing to correct the problem. I called the Crumble cookies in Concord NC the girl that answered the phone was rude I explained that my cookie cutter was not in the order and before I could finish she blamed it on DoorDash. I told her DoorDash was still at my home and she was willing to come back. The woman on the other end was so rude and nasty refused to correct the mistake, and hung up on me. I called back a different person answered I asked for the previous person name so I could file a complaint she said they couldn’t give out names I asked for the manager and she refused as well. I asked for a complaint number she told me to look online. How sad that this is how Crumble cookies treats their customers.Version: 5.10.2

Forced to have appIrritating that you have to download app to redeem gift e-card..Version: 4.1.2

Terrible customer service experienceAfter reading the reviews I thought this would be a home run but, I was wrong. My recipient and I both live in Jersey, but I noticed the order was coming from Utah which I thought was strange. It was delayed in Tennessee (perhaps a FedEx issue with the flooding). It arrived and it was the smaller qty box (less than what I paid for) and the greeting was for someone else in California. My recipient had no idea it was from me and they had to contact customer service. I contacted customer service this morning as well. Nobody answers, instead they send a text back to you. I filled out the requested information (receipt order number). The text reply stated they were having trouble finding it and to send a screenshot of the order. I did…5 hours ago. No replies since. I have called again and got nobody BUT I got another text asking how they can help. Poor experience. No credit for what I paid for. My recipient still hasn’t gotten what I paid for…or my note..Version: 3.9.3

Crumbl is great the new update is notLove Crumbl, but the latest update to the app is glitching. I cannot open the app at all, it starts to open then crashes, which was not an issue prior to the update.Version: 6.4.1

Errors and bugsThis app has issues with it. Earlier I was sitting in the parking lot at the woodruff location and it was pouring down raining. The lobby was so packed, so I decided to do online instead so I could just run in and grab the order once ready and not deal with the hassle of waiting in line or getting soaked running in the car…I went through choosing the 4 cookies, added my debit card and proceeded to place the order. It gave me several error messages. I assumed it was because the time frame I wanted was unavailable, and decided to just wait until tomorrow (the next day). When I left and went to chick fil a I noticed I’d been charged for the cookies in my debit card app notifications. I called crumbl to see what time the order would be ready and they had no record of it. It also didn’t display in the app which I placed the order through. So basically I was charged for cookies I never got!!!! Now Ive got to wait until the order isn’t pending just to to request a refund for the money I was charged!!!!.Version: 4.4.6

Can’t order onlineDoes not let me order online.Version: 6.6.3

Not very friendlyI went to pick up a order I had placed and when I walked in not one person greeted me. They were all to busy talking. I had two people ahead of me so I knew it would be a minute. When the 2nd person was done picking up the order the girl looked and me and never smiled or said someone will be with you. The other girl working the front looked over and having a conversation with the other staff and finally said have you been helped? I said no she walked over gave me my order no other conversation. It’s funny because my next stop was nothing but Bundt cake and they had a store full! When I walked in the lady told me right away we will be with you. They were a lot more people waiting too! Just a different environment! I will be taking my business there. Treated better for less staff working and more people to help. Btw there were prob 10 employees at crumble to the 3 at the Bundt cake place!.Version: 5.0.8

Rude staffI stood in line where it said to order . I was ignored. Finally the girl looked at me and asked me if I had ordered? Not sure how I could have ordered because she had not even spoken to me. Then I gave her my order I ordered four cookies. She said oh you want a six pack? I said no these are the cookies I want that equals four. no sorry or a smile nothing. Then she told me my charge I put my credit card in the slot and it sat there she didn’t tell me to take it out I just sat there she handed me the box and she said thank you and I said what am I supposed to do with the credit card why isn’t it telling me what to do and then she said just take it out! She was rude and disrespectful. I was there around 2:13 today at the Highlands Ranch location. This was my first time in the storeAnd that was a very rude way to treat me I realize you were having a hard time hiring staff but I think maybe some proper training would be nice. Plus she was dirty and had a dirty apron on and it kind of made me sickly.Version: 3.9.3

Terrible customer service!TLDR; Terrible customer service, bad user interface in the app itself. I ordered my first crumbl cookie order in the app store for a friend. However, immediately after placing the order, I realized the delivery time of ASAP meant an hour later (and at a time my friend wouldn't be home) and attempted to edit the order. Despite being placed 30 seconds before and not even having been processed, there is no function on the app to do this. Instead, the app tells me to call the store. I do so, and I have since been on hold for OVER AN HOUR; not only that, but at one point my position in the hold line somehow jumped backwards instead of forwards (from number two to five). There is no other way to contact the store or address order problems, except an online chat function with estimated responses of A COUPLE HOURS. The cookies cannot be good enough to make up for the bad experience and wasted money on cookies now delivered incorrectly as I've sat here on hold..Version: 4.0.7

Seriously revamp your waiting system / operation strategyEveryone I talk to about your company likes your cookies but absolutely hates the confusing system and wait times and many vowed to never visit again. I can only guess a majority of these reviews are fake or incentivized. I scheduled a pickup over 1 hour before I actually wanted them because I know how crazy your store gets, because I had the unfortunate experience of waiting 45 minutes in person at your store for cookies when there was no physical line. (Solve this by having separate queues for digital and physical orders / cookies ready to go for in person customers, or give customers a choice for freshly made with realistic wait estimates, I was told 10 minutes when it actually took 45) And despite putting in my order at 8:16pm with a “pickup time” of 8:15pm, when I go to pick it up at 9:20pm I had to wait an entire hour for pickup! And by that time the original flavors I ordered were sold out and an originally sold out flavor was available… seriously… fix this. At the cost of a mob of extremely angry customers waiting over an hour for their orders and frazzled workers working past closing to fulfill orders that should have been made 2 hours ago, you created the worst system that prioritizes making cookies fresh rather than considering that people don’t like waiting 1 hour for cookies, and would rather have slightly cold cookies asap. Hire an operations engineer. Seriously. If you already have one, get a new one..Version: 3.9.0

App defaults-You ask for location but make me have to select my store each time I place an order it doesn’t even pop up as my normal store -you have the “how’d we do” survey pop up too soon/you don’t give enough time for someone to fill it in/have access to it - rarely does anyone want to fill it out walking with your awkward rectangle 4pack to fill out the survey before it times out nor would I imagine someone doing this on the way to their car -lastly, I think you’re a whack for putting the default tip amount to $3 when you already have 4 cookies for $16 with tax especially when you only rotate 4 new cookies in and continue to keep the pink Cadillac cookie (for months now) with the famous reoccurring chocolate chip cookie when you use to put more efforts into surprising your consumers with a new menu weekly I went to redeem my birthday cookie and got charged the unexpected $3 tip because I forgot you assume everyone wants to tip $3 with their order - your redemption for a free birthday cookie was tricky to pull up on the app as well, even the store staff couldn’t help me locate it within the app.Version: 5.0.7
