The male voice said they were asking for a refund because "your manager was touching his cell phone."

"It has nothing to do with you, I do not even know why you are upset," he said.

A spokeswoman for Burger King responded to The Herald, pointing out that "this team member's actions do not reflect Burger King brand values."
