Costco shoppers say that the retailer has gotten extremely pushy about encouraging people to upgrade their memberships.
that has racked up more than 250 comments, the customer vented their frustration and asked for advice after a cashier reportedly upgraded them to the Executive Membership without their consent.
"I went to my local Costco the other day, and the cashier asked me about dozen different times/ways if I wanted to upgrade from the gold star membership to the executive membership. I said in no uncertain terms, that I had no interest in doing that…After I checked out, the cashier handed me my receipt and said thanks for upgrading and my receipt included a charge for the $40 or so to upgrade.
The customer said that they approached the customer service desk with their issue"only to be told that they couldn't do anything that day and I'd have to come back another day since it hadn't gone through the system yet." The customer also spoke with a manager who"basically brushed it off," but promised to downgrade their membership and mail them a gift card with the funds they were charged.
But days after the incident, Citibank notified the customer that they'd upgraded their existing Costco credit card to reflect the upgraded membership and had already shipped it. The customer assumed this meant that their upgraded membership hadn't actually gotten canceled despite the manager's promise. The customer criticized the whole debacle as"fraud" and lamented that they"now have to spend time/effort undoing all of this, which I didn't even want.
