Dear Superdrug Customer Service,
Dear Superdrug Customer Service,
I am writing to express my disappointment following a recent visit to one of your stores, where I experienced unwelcoming and unprofessional service from a member of staff.
I had made the effort to walk specifically to your store to purchase my shampoo, and I hardly spoke during the transaction — yet the moment I mentioned I didn’t have my physical discount card but could enter my email instead, the staff member’s ,Rabaya’s ,attitude immediately changed for the worse.
She sighed and told me the keyboard wasn’t working, and that she would have to do it herself. From that point on, her manner became very cold and dismissive. She made no effort to be polite or professional, and her tone and body language made me feel like I was a nuisance.
What made this experience even more uncomfortable was the clear contrast in how she treated the customer ahead of me. That person — who, was of Asian background as her — was met with a friendly and warm attitude. In comparison, I, a white customer, was treated with visible irritation and what felt like open hostility.
I don’t want to jump to conclusions, but the stark difference in treatment left me feeling extremely uncomfortable and targeted. No customer should be made to feel unwelcome or judged for any reason, and I left the store feeling why was i treated like that?
I hope this issue will be taken seriously and addressed appropriately. Every customer deserves to be treated with respect, regardless of background or appearance.
Thank you for your time and attention. I look forward to your response.
Kind regards,
J.S
