Mobile order, you're not supposed to be able to order things on the mobile app if it's unavailable however that's not the case here because they don't market unavailable I ordered a frappe with my meal was informed when I got to the window that I could not get it they gave me a coke instead it was more than $2 difference and I was not issued my refund I'm extremely unsatisfied I work too hard for my little dollars for them to keep them that multi-million dollar company does not need to keep my $2 for the product I did not get

I went to get a milkshake today and ordered the chocolate shake and got home took a sip of it and it was extremely sour. Something red was in the bottom of the shake. I’m turning this in to SCDHEC and reporting this to BBB. This location needs to be shut down immediately. I will also be suing McDonalds this location and will request video footage to see what was put into the shake.
