I am so upset, I had a drink made at Starbucks and when they made it they showed it to me and from what I could see it looked good but I waited a bit and when the whip melted the drink was like an inch down from the rim! So they had filled it up with an inch of just whip cream and when I showed them this and explained it and asked for more milk they refused to do it and refused to remake it saying well I showed it to you before and its just fine, well I couldn't tell before that they used so much whip cream. And they refused to remake it and told me to stop talking.

    I think the part where your argument falls apart is where you write "but then I waited a bit", implying the whip melted because you chose to wait. Not sure how that makes Starbucks liable for the whip going down because you decided to wait a bit. It is reasonable to expect that whipped toppings recede with time.

    just ask for no foam or low foam next time. that usually means you get more milk and less air

    The whip melted which then showed me how much it was, it was too much whip cream, they left an inch below the rim for whip cream and thats too much.

    meh. Don't be so picky. That's why I make my own coffee.

    ETA: if they really did tell you to "stop talking" then yes that warrants a complaint, but I honestly don't see that happening.

    Do you know how many minutes of exercise you'd have to put in to work off the calories in that "coffee flavored milkshake" you ordered?

    Trust me, they did you a favor.

    If you talk like you write, this makes sense.

    Are you saying that you get this drink many times, and this one time it looked very different from all the other times? That argument would be more reasonable - as in you expect Starbucks to produce and serve a consistent product for the same money charged.

    So that 1/2 inch that they shorted you made you upset enough to create a post here to complain about it?? :noway:

    Life is to short to sweat the small stuff!!

    Hahah the self righteous people who responded to this poor lady's post are too funny. Don't worry, Starbucks tends to go overkill on whip and what not!

    And the reason you are complaining here and telling people how upset you are is.....?

    That is very unfortunate, but I'm not sure why you would post it on this forum....
