We ordered a dishwasher for our tenants from the Sears and later Kmart website 5 times and it still hasn’t been fullfilled! The first time our ordered was cancelled by the Sears fraud department because we used our Sears card and they assumed it wasn’t us because we haven’t bought anything in about a year. The second and third time the dishwasher we ordered was out of stock.
I have made big appliance purchases at sears before and been happy so im very familiar with you’re price match up policy on 3/2/12 i called customer support to ask a question about youre policy…. this to be specific (If you find a lower online price (including shipping, handling and delivery) on an identical branded item with the same features (in Consumer Electronics identical brand and model number) currently available from a local competitor’s retail store honoring its own online price.
We ordered a Sole elipitcal from Sears and we were called and told we could pick it up on Friday. We arrived and submitted our receipt. After waiting about 25 mins., a representative came out and told us they could not find our order. After being ignored for another 15 to 20 mins. it was determined to not have been delivered. After many other attempts to satify us, they went to work on reordering the product. No one appeared to have a clue as to how to go about this. They tried on different computers and 2 different managers and a salesman.
-The first situation is receiving a very important appliance. I purchased more than $10,000 worth of appliances from Sears in October 2011. At first, the Sears sales associate “forgot” to order a blower than goes with my vent/downdraft for my kitchen. Finally, after weeks of calling about the blower a manager ordered the item in November 2011. However, it is February and the blower has still not been delivered. They are now saying it is going to be March 2012. I cannot wait that long and I want to return the item. I had to order the item on the side which was another nearly $600.00 The store where it was purchased was suppose to return the blower and call me.
The Sears autocenter #6220 at Eastland mall in 2765 S Hamilton Rd., Columbus OH scheduled my truck for repair. The schedule was for 1 and 1/2 to 2 hours. After waiting for two hours, the shop manager told me that a technician had gone home and that they did not know when my car would be finished. I had the option to wait without an estimate of when the car would be repaired or take my car out of the shop. I was also given the option to purchase the part received from NAPA if I wanted to have someone else do the repair.
After saving for a year and a half after my husband passed away I was able to pay to have my homes HVAC unit replaced BY SEARS. So I hired an installer to purchase and install this for me. Exactly 2 months after this $4800.00 purchase and install the unit began leaking freon on a regular basis having to refill it every couple months. The installer was very helpful for a while refilling it for free while telling me that if I went to any other source for repairs he would cut me off. Well finally he wrote me a letter stating that the unit was a lemon, Heil Comfortmaker 3 ton unit IS A LEMON. Well my son has been trying to help me contacting Heil Corporation, who is very rude and blames everything on SEARS, we cant get anyone on the phone at Heil at all.
Hello. My name is Al and I live in Florence, KY. My mother recently bought a Kenmore Refrigerator online and had the address to be shipped incorrect. When we called to change the address on the shipping information they kept us on hold for 23 minutes then transferred us to someone they said could help. After being on hold with this person for several more minutes we were told that they could not change the address for the shipping. I thought this was ridiculous. We had to cancel the order and redo it. My mother got fed up and decided not to purchase the Refrigerator from Sears anymore.
2 years into a top of the line Sears elite Washer, $1699.00 and it is junk, the repair agreement covers $500., it costs $664.00 to repair so they offered us a voucher for $500 to buy a new one! Like I would want anything again from Sears, this is so outrageous that it is near fraud! Why and How can a computer go out on a washer that is 2 years old, there are only 2 of us in the house. Our laundry needs are maybe 2x a week! My husband is appalled at the cost and the lack of standing behind their top end appliances! Never buy Sears, you are only asking for problems.
Dear Sears, I will never do anything through you guys again! Your business is crap. When something is suppose to be covered under warranty or if something is screwed up on your end, it takes you forever to get out and fix things and then you charge out the butt. Any loop pole you take in the warranty, you take it.On another note, everyone’s time is valuable and when you don’t show up during the time you are suppose to, you call. I shouldn’t have to call you to find out “why you never showed up, and you should NEVER tell someone that you just didn’t fee like making it out there today.”
I purchased 4 Gladiator 30″ storage cabinets on line from sears and they delivered them to the store. The people at the pickup location were outstanding. I went into the store to buy track to hang them and I couldn’t find anyone to help me. This is the second complaint this year about not getting help. Lastly, the store had the same cabinet on sale for $ 20.00 cheaper than I had just purchased them for. I emailed the Sears site where I bought them and I have never received a response. My order and confirmation number is 280234986 and the barcode number is 093001389363.
We bought a Kenmore Elite Dishwasher 5 years ago and bought the Service Warranty for 5 years. 30 days before it expired we started having problems with the dishwasher. The first repair man said it was the mother board. They ordered a new one. The same repair man came out and replaced the board. The dishwasher still didn’t work. Then he said it was the float. So he ordered a new one. When that one came in, they sent out a different repair man. He refused to put in the float and said it was the door latch. When he was putting the door back together he was pounding it with his hand and a part broke off and the dishwasher was all crooked.
Bought a range hood a few weeks ago. Turned out to be a 700.00 dollar referbished piece of ###… Anyhow, this range hood has a tendency to turn on when it keeps the rangehood lights on permanently. Sears, “technicians’ have been over twice and still no result. I called, pleaded, argued, and almmost got into a physicall confrintation due to the current staff. What ill do i dont know… but… I have come to reallize that franchizing is what is killing customer service and the reputation of sears. It really is no different then buying a excpencive car. Having problems with the car. And nobody to help you with it. It is insulting …
i purchased a mattress and box spring to be delivered to my daugfhters apt. i paid for delivery and haul-away. When items were delivered, drivers told her that they did not haul away anything. i called sear delivery and wanted to know why deliverymen would tell this and also asked for a supervisor to call me since i would now be inconvenienced for hopefully the haul away that i had paid for. i never received a call from either delivery to reschedule or a supervisor to file my complaint. I gave up and paid someone to get the old mattress and box spring.
To whom it concerns, I am very displeased with your company, I purchase all my appliances from Sears, I highly recommend all my family & friends to Sears. Needless to say I will no longer be recommending Sears. I was scheduled to receive my delivery Oct. 15, 2011, When it arrived to my residence it was damaged. I was then told it would be delivered the morning of Oct. 16, 2011, I waited and waited, I then called, and was told my delivery was in route to my home. I continued to wait, I then called back within the hour, to be told my delivery never left the warehouse, for some reason it was suppose to be damaged also, but I was informed it was in route,
when in fact it never left the warehouse.
I build cabinets and install appliances. With all appliance companies I have found complete specifications for their appliances on line, especially ‘cut out dimensions!’ Not so with Sears Kenmore. After trying online, I called for help. Only to find a dead end and a bad attitude. I had to go the the store, where I was showed a book with, cut out dimensions. The sales person look at me as if I had two heads! We can’t receive the appliances, with the installation book until a later date and the building needs to start sooner. SEARS…show more specifications especially cut out sizes on line….please…I wouldn’t recommend Kenmore kitchen appliances.
I am sure you receive a lot of these emails, I am 85 years old and my lovely wife is 82. We have been a Sears customer for over 40 years, never had a problem. Until last year we bought a refrigerator paid 1300 dollars for it which is a lot of money for us. It worked fine for a few months then started to have problems, the repair guy came out a few times but it still didn’t work right. Sears decided to replace it which was a great idea, we had that one for a few months and the control board went bad, repair man came out again but the factory kept send wrong part finally the right one came and it didn’t fix it so we decided to exchange it for a smaller unit.
I bought a new whirlpool washer at sears Middletown on 8/13/11. I picked it up, took it home and installed it on Friday. Dead on Arrival. Called whirlpool warranty… just after 5pm. A nice young man in some other state was able to tell me that there was nothing I could do to fix it that night, so onwards to scheduling a service appointment. Increasingly hard to maintain contact, Customer service reps (CSR) go repeatedly through pleasant sounding scripts taking all demographic info, then lose the call and don’t call back.
Did not honor tire price or rebate. I got a quote for tires online at Sears Tire Center for the local Sears store for both my dads car and mine. I went to the store with my dad and he purchased his tires at the quoted price. Fact is they even lowered the price by a few dollars. It’s to early to tell if he will actually get the $160 rebate promissed him though. I went in two days later with my printout for the exact same tire type just in a different size and was told after several minutes of trying to be sold a more expensive option that they would not honor the price quoted me.
On May 24, 2011 our Bosch diswasher we bought from Sears in 2003 began leaking. I called for a repair service and a tech came out. He used like a magnifying glass and look around but cld not find anything – cost $109. Diswasher still leaking I called Sears again for a tech to come to my house, same tech sent out this time he “found inlet water pressure to high redcued input water pressure, checked operation”. The charge $144. Later than day my daughter came home and asked why I paid again and I said your right, the reason I was niot thinking will be revealed later.
I bought a dishwasher from Sears.Com. I agreed to pay them extra to deliver it, install it and take away the old unit. I also paid for an install kit. They kept me waiting 10 days for delivery. At 11:00am on the delivery day, I called to ask them when they were coming. They said, “relax, we’re coming today” I waited some more. At 4 pm they still weren’t here, so I called them again. They said, “we have decided not to come. It’s too much trouble to deliver to your area, We’ll just give you your money back, but it will take 10 days to get a refund on your credit card” I said, “what do you mean its too much trouble? Sears is only 56 miles away and they deliver to my area once a week!”
