- [R1] 7-Eleven 711 rewards are a lie and a scam: There hasn’t been one time that I get the rewards at the pump that the app says I will get. It’s a waste of time. 711 app is a scam and waste of time. I will start getting my gas elsewhere, where they honor their rewards, and not lie about it.
- [R4] 7-Eleven Rewards points: The points don’t stay which is annoying asf had over 1000 and boom it’s gone.
- [R10] 7-Eleven Fake promos: Whenever you wanna use points or redeem promotions, the app just doesn't work.
- [R11] 7-Eleven Ahorro Gas: Es una opción fácil, practica y efiofe ahorrar más en productos básicos y sobre Todo en Gasolina!!!
- [R5] 7-Eleven Cheap and easy: Just like I like it
- [R6] 7-Eleven Problems: Love this app but it having many problems. Yall need to fix it now
- [R7] 7-Eleven Unusable: I’ve decided this isn’t working for me and want to delete my account but when I open the app it just locks up on me and won’t function. While I did go through the deletion process after a lot of painful waiting yesterday, they never sent me the verification email and the GD app is freezing again!! 7-11 kinda sucks…
- [R9] 7-Eleven Rewards have lowered: App works great! But the actual rewards have been reduced while the price of items have doubled. I used to be prompted “Save $1 “ at the cash register and at best, all I get is .50 cents rewards while a Ben & Jerry’s pint of ice cream nears $9
- [R2] 7-Eleven Oh thank heavens: Good job overall customer service and incentives 👍🏽
- [R3] 7-Eleven Rude employees: The 7-11 on 8830 Rose Avenue Orlando fl the employee’s are rude, loud and wrong! I love less than a mile away and I do my best not to go there! I walk in the store and I have to wait on her to finish her personal conversation while the other employee looks at me standing there for 30 seconds for her to turn around and look at me like I’m bothering her to spend my money with your bu
- [R16] 7-Eleven Starrtripper: It’s unsurprising this space to review what happened also doesn’t work properly. Due to this app’s failure (error message “no internet connection)” and no WiFi connections at ANY of the local 7-Eleven stores, I’m now on ‘E’ and hoping I make it to a gas station. It’s the worst app with so-called customer support at 711 equally as awful.
- [R17] 7-Eleven SO CONVENIENT !: I love getting discounts on gas!
- [R20] 7-Eleven Rewards: Love cheaper gas and cheaper drinks! Always convenient
- [R37] 7-Eleven Love the savings!: I love the savings that are available on the 7-Eleven app! If you've use your wallet on the app to pay for gas you get extra discounts off per gallon, there's discounts all over the app for you to save money in the store! Literally one of the most used apps on my phone!!
- [R64] 7NOW Overall disappointed: Customer service and app needs serious work way too high prices way too many fees. My driver never showed up. I wasn’t even issued a refund. I had to get in contact with a human being to get a refund it was difficult and frustrating
- [R69] 7NOW Forgetting things: They always forget my cigarettes
- [R78] 7NOW Never on time or correct: Wrong items old stale always late rude
- [R87] 7NOW Delivery: Always on time and never like a hassle than other apps
- [R67] 7NOW Customer service is less than hopeful.: I have an order that was not being delivered for whatever reason and the customer support representative was not that smart. Damaris seems to be unable to use common sense.
- [R73] 7NOW Oh boi!: It would be nice if your app did not cut off my address apartment number upon sending information to Door Dash. That way I can get my order and the drivers don’t have such a hard time. Customer service needs a lot of work. I requested to merge my two accounts and when that failed requested to cancel one of them. Representative put in to cancel the wrong account even though we verified it
- [R76] 7NOW App Issues: Can’t figure out why the communication is still horrible and why they can’t update app when it comes to people ordering there are people out here with no transportation sometimes and to play around and not know what’s going on with peoples purchases is extremely frustrating
