Customer blasts store after claiming they couldn\u2019t choose \u201cno tip\u201d option FlickrA customer put a store on blast after they said that they failed to put a \u2018no tipping\u2019 option on their checkout. A customer at Bubble U, a popular boba store, went viral on TikTok after they claimed that they weren\u2019t able to select an option not to tip when it came to checkout. In the video, they recorded the end of the transaction, where the screen is shown along with the tipping options. It allows users to select anywhere between a 10 percent tip and a 25 percent tip, however, there\u2019s no explicit option allowing users to opt out of leaving a tip. People weigh in on store\u2019s tipping situation After the video was posted on the platform, people were quick to weigh in with their opinions. \u201cWent to a boba store in the Bay Area with 25%, 30%, and 40% only options. I paid in cash instead,\u201d one told the poster. \u201cI used to work there and I hope you walked out after this,\u201d one wrote. \u201cWhy do boba places even have prompts that ask for tips for doing nothing beyond the job requirement?\u201d another asked confusedly. However, it turns out that the no tipping option was available from the start, with the poster writing at a later date that the button was located under the \u2018continue,\u2019 section. \u201cThey really hid the no tip option under the continue button,\u201d they said. The store itself responded: \u201cThank you for bringing this to our attention and we\u2019re sorry about your experience! We checked our systems and found no problem selecting the $0 tip.\u201d \u201cYeah but it\u2019s one thing when the custom tip is not its own button and it has to be merged in with the continue button,\u201d one clapped back. The subject of tipping is a long-standing debate. In January, a woman went viral after she raged at staff in the Sugar Factory when an automatic tip was added to her bill.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
