I hope all the search engines in the world find this post.
Honestly, what crap they are! How low they have sunken!
This morning, I missed my daily breakfast meal, and had to get something on the way to work. I COULD have got a "One Square Meal" bar (http://www.onesquaremeal.co.nz/) - aka the food of the gods! But, alas, I was starving and my better judgement was obviously impaired, as there was a Subway store close by, and also because of the fact that it had been over a year since I had last purchased some Subway food I thought I'd give it another go. What a complete waste of my time and money.
So here's what I ordered this morning... let it be known Subway - you SUCK - as this isn't the first time I've had bad service from you... food wise and service wise... although I believe that bad service is not something really a corporation can fix... it's probably more of an individual thing (more likely a kiwi thing).
The people behind the counter are obviously trained to put as little food on my meal as possible... ask for lettuce (the most cheapest food they have probably) and you are lucky to get a small sprinkling... not even a handful... and it all goes downhill from there...
I ordered a Chicken Wrap. I asked for these things to be put on it. Lettuce, Tomato, Capsicum, Onion and a bit of pepper.
Most of the food was brown and old (at 7:30am) but that's OK, it's not always like that - I think I just got unlucky there... no biggie as it was still quite acceptable. So anyhow, back to the food amounts, that lettuce? Had to ask for more... tomatoes, 3 wheels (almost asked for more because they weren't very big wheels. Capsicum... three strands of green pepper (luckily for subway I was looking hard at the tomatoes and didn't notice the crappy amounts of these I was receiving). Onion, a couple of thin strands. I had to ask more of these as well...
When the Subway person went to wrap it, it was so small that it really did not look filling at all. They all seem to be so scared of overfilling the wraps and breaking the wrap itself that they just underfill it to the extreme. MAYBE IF SUBWAY HADN'T CHANGED THE WRAP TYPE A YEAR OR TWO AGO TO THESE THIN RUBBISHY WRAPS THEY WOULDN'T HAVE THESE PROBLEMS! And the worst thing was, was that I bought two of these quaking behemoths of nutrition... but unfortunately for Subway, they were both as bad as each other - complete rubbish.
So, I also bought a Coke Zero, when what do you think they charged me for all this? A little over $15.00 - what a crock. So I paid for my meal - really I shouldn't have but as I said earlier, I was pretty starving and need something straight away... (Should have been a OSM).
So then I get back to work and I have access to a computer... I find out that one of these wraps is actually more calories than a OSM and also - half of it is carbs and each one was over 1000mg of sodium... For crying out loud - eat you own food Subway - it used to be tasty and nutritious. about 20 years ago it seems...
Don't even bother trying to lay a complaint with Subway either, I traied that about 1.5-2 years ago... after a couple of chase ups by me I still didn't have any feedback... Bad food, bad service!
Bah - ranting finished - for now... :-)
There's no shortage of food at Subway over here mate, the unfortunate thing is they pretty much just throw all of the ingredients randomly on the paper and wrap it up, then you're forced to turn it in to something later on. I still go back though...
