So KFC Increase Their prices and did not advertise it!

[admin]

So i gone to buy KFC today and to my shock They increased everything, A snack pack was 26 dollars is now 28 dollars and diner special is 45 dollars now along with every other items listed. So this company feel to increase their prices not by 1 dollars but by 2 and not advertise the new prices saying why it was increased.
I really find its bull Crap and i will not be supporting this, if i'm craving fry chicken i will buy Trini Fry chicken instead. Trini Fry Chicken is 25 dollars for 3 pieces of large chicken and fries.

Wht pisses me off even more is not really about the price increase but the size of the chicken is still small like its pigeons they are selling. How do you guys feel about this?:argue:

I agree with everything you say and additionally, some of their branches such as the Montrose branch has the absolute worst service. Some days of the week and late evenings on weekends it makes zero sense to go to the Montrose branch as they have one person cashing and serving everybody while line almost reachin the door.
Half the time I go KFC the lynx service isn't in order and they never have any indication to let ppl know this so they won't waste their time in the line and go elsewhere.

If you ask me, KFC should be reducing their prices due to the poor customer service I frequently get but in Trinidad we have our own price mechanism and you'll see there will be the same if not more lines now in KFC since this price increase.

Wow. Everyone I talk to complain about KFC's customer service, you would think they train their staff to be terrible! And now a price increase? KFC going crazy!!!! What do you wanna bet, there will be more and more Fried chicken outlets popping up. KFC's days are numbered...

Very true if this was America and any food outlet eg KFC worker gives you bad customer service and you report it, its becomes a serious thing as they can loose their jobs. Here in Trinidad we continue to receive bad customer service because KFC is under a Franchise owner who cares less about who they are employing and how they treat their customers.
Very true about most of the time in montrose, they do most of the time have one person cashing and on top of that the pepper and ketchup are always empty. Many time when i asked them if they can fill it back they does look at you like you're pissing them off.
Here in Trinidad we stand by this Ratio Bad Customer service + Low quality and quantity products = a reason to increase prices.

Once at the Price Plaza branch I asked them to refill the ketchup and they made me stand there for about 15 minutes. The cashier behind the counter even looked at my mother once as if she was stupid because she had asked a question. The one time I wasn't there... That cashier would have gotten embarassed by a youth man.

KFC workers often tend to have a very laid back attitude. There are some very good ones but far and few. I wonder if reporting these things to Prestige Holdings would make any difference.
Your ratio should be given a formal name, thats exactly what it is.

These people don't realize that without customers, they would have no jobs. KFC has gotten way to greedy, I wish more people would boycott them, teach them a lesson......I remember the days when a snack pack was $14.50 smh

Isn't the franchiser for all those "cuisines* Prestige Holdings? Allyuh talking about the size of the chicken... For the past few months every time I buy KFC nothing cooked/fried good. Chicken still fresh and tasting half raw, fries partially frozen and the buns cold....

Princes Town KFC usually serves over-cooked wings and legs as their go-to chicken to serve customers, especially after 9pm. And you usually have to wait for them to burn more anyway, even if there's some in the window. A price increase is beyond ridiculous. I could buy a whole chicken and make better tasting fried chicken for less than the price of a three piece. Not really feeling pained by the price though because allergies stopped me from eating KFC long time

wow sorry to hear! i dont eat KFC much either , but theres always a solution!

no KFC = More Curry! lmao joke joke

i honestly think Wendy's could compete with the Asiago Ranch chicken sandwich, that thing tastes amazing!

Nooooooo Mr. Bollywood you did not say more curry!!! I have a saying I tell my husband, you must know it's a Trini when all we want is Stew, Curry, Fry, Curry, Bbq, or Curry. Why must we curry EVERYTHING?!?! I will run from curry. No more curry for me.

Wendy's beat back KFC long time but I really wish the Popeye's down here tasted like the one in the US. You see how big KFC is here? Popeye's is so good up there KFC is like a nobody and Popeye's is the go-to fried chicken. Idk wth the workers doing to the Popeye's chicken down here, it's like they're secret double agents for KFC making sure to keep the competition from rising.

I keep hearing about Popeye's. I need to try it! Better than KFC..hard to imagine. Mr.B if you're talking about curry chicken, duck, goat, tatoo, lappe....I'm in!

 

[nirtime]

Its interesting to note that we share the view where we boycott kfc a lot yet theres still such longgg lines on a daily.

 

[LadyDeath]

Just imagine Trini Fried Chicken is only $25 for 3 big pieces of parts chicken and fries galore. They even have garlic sauce which makes it more speshal

KFC ain't got nothing on them. In Montrose people park in KFC car park to go to Trini Fried Chicken lol. However, i think trinis would not stop buying KFC don't matter how much the price raise .

Don't hold your breath for Popeye's here. I tried it once and it was very, very disappointing.

 

[Shadowhunter]

When you really think about it, I'm not sure what attracts ppl to KFC. Other fried chicken outlets have better cooked chicken, bigger pieces, nice sauces, better prices and usually more courteous staff and cleaner environments. Plus you support local businesses. So why is KFC always full?

 

[MangaAddict]

KFC is all over the place! I wish Trini Fried Chicken would come Princes Town, tried them once and they blew KFC out of the water!!!

 

[Shadowhunter]

Well, Royal Castle is gone from PTown, now at least there's Robin's to offer a choice aside from KFC. Hopefully others find their way down!

 

[madsuya]

i am one of the biggest KFC lover....but i will cut down and eventuly stop buying coz many times the pieces are so small and dey dont reduce the prices...now u on a price rise...no way KFC....i customer less here...

Telling you every time I go there I get close to raw chicken. I won't mind the over cooked one. On a serious note, the prices increase and the food and service and the overall quality get worse
