I have been a member of Sams Club for over 3 years and a die-hard shopper of both Sams Club and Walmart Stores. This morning, I went to my local Sams Club Warehouse and was told to leave because I was not a 'business member.' Apparently they have this policy of only business members shopping before 10 am.

I have gone into this warehouse many times before 10 am and no one has ever mentioned this to me before, much less kicked me out. The greeter told me to talk to the manager and pointed to a lady who was walking away from the front door to the check out's (She was a manager of some sort) She heard me mention (as I said it loud enough) that this was not very customer or member friendly to deny a paying member the opportunity to shop!

She continued to walk away as if she didn't care that there was a customer service issue at hand. It should make no difference what type of member (business or personal) that you may happen to be, any store(membership or otherwise) should not turn away business.

It is bad enough that we have to endure their long lines at the checkouts because they don't want to hire more people to checkout members. We usually have to wait an average of 15 mins. to get checked out and they thank us by kicking us out because we go into their store early? What's wrong with this picture?

I am cancelling my membership and will not be shopping at Sam's or Walmart Stores ever again and I will be encouraging everyone I know to do the same. Walmart & Sams may be the largest retailer in the world but they have the worst customer (no) service in the industry!

I bought a 42 Philips plasma TV from Sams w/ an extended two year warranty. Within the first year i used my tv at most for three months. Within the first year the tv developed a blue spot when the tv heated up. The repair people for their warranties is not even located in Tennessee, their out of Alabama. They are Audio Video specialist.. It took them a week to look at it, another 5 days to pick it up. And as of today now day 46, the part to fix my TV is still in limbo and has not been resolved. One CSR working for Sams has been sympathetic, but that doesnt make me feel better as i stare at the huge blank spot on the wall of my livingroom as i listen to the NBA finals and the US cup on the radio.. I highly recommend not to buy from Sams because of there very lack-luster febal attempt when it comes to pleasing their customers.. Im wondering if my warranty expires before the tv gets returned if my warranty is still valid.. I still have 22 months so ill keep all posted..

3 months in a row, Sams has waied until the day after due date to post payment even though I paid 12 to 16 days prior to the due date electronically. Checks go out next day or same day.
this is deliberate in my opinion as I have A plus credit and pay all bills way in advance each month and do not keep balances on account. Please investigate as i believe there are many other complaints.
they charge a 25 dollar late fee each month.
i am upset about this and they are no help when i call.
they tried saying there was a holiday in the month last month.
this month, i wanted to see if they would post on the 22nd as well.
i paid on the 11th and sure enough, they did.
