    Purchased a new high end KitchenAid dishwasher with a custom panel front. I asked if they can install and they said not problem it's only $99.00 and $15.00 to take the old unit away. When the delivery men came I asked if they ever did a custom front and if they are licensed plumbers. They said no to both. Then they said they could not disconnect a cope line as they are not licensed but could direct wire and do a flex line that was extra. Told them to get out. I am not going to risk my house with "unlicensed people". I asked for a refund of the $99.00 and $15.00 and had to fight them for that. 4 days later no refund. No problem. Thanks to having a Black Card, my bank canceled the complete charge and said we will wait for Home Depot to call rather than put me on the defense. Screw Home Depot. Non licensed people, get real. My plumber charges me $200.00 and it was worth it. It took two hours and he took the old one away.

    I used my debit card to make a 80.19 purchase. The Home Depot cashier told me it was incomplete. Happening 4 times coming out with the same response. I call my bank asking them "What's going on? I have money in my account." The bank responded by saying all 4 transactions went through. I was out almost 400.00 and it's been one week and still not resolved.

    I visited my local Home Depot (Signal Hill, CA, I believe), located at Spring Street and Atlantic Blvd. I purchased several items including a plant which was located on a pallet marked "was $12.95, now $7.95". At check out, the plant rang up at $12.95. I was forced to wait a half hour for another employee to price verify. Meanwhile, the cashier checked out another 5 customers while I had to stand and wait for the verification.

    Most stores all offer a $5.00 discount when an item scans the wrong price. The cashier shrugged his shoulders when I asked him to imagine how many customers paid the bar code price $12.95, without looking, rather than the mark down price of $7.95. I asked to speak to a supervisor. I had to wait another 10 to 15 minutes for the supervisor. When I explained the issue to him, he merely replied to the cashier "give it to her for $7.95". I tried to explain that was not the issue, he became rude and said only grocery stores give a $5.00 discount and refused any discount. Warning: watch your scanned prices IF you HAVE to shop at Home Depot. Recommend any other hardware store.

    So I originally posted this on the Home Depot's product review page but they said it didn't meet their guidelines because it didn't discuss the "product." Meanwhile, the "product" I ordered was an INSTALLED Backyard Discovery Playset and my review was about the HORRIBLE process they have in place of subcontracting multiple layers of work to an awful company - GO CONFIGURE - and how the installation basically consisted of me chasing all the parties involved to get anything done (and still hasn't happened). So hopefully this review helps some of you! (As an aside, the actual people - the third level of sub-contractors who have showed up at my house have been very nice. Still no installation, but very nice people).

    First and foremost, what this product description fails to explain in detail is how many levels of subcontractors will be included on this project and then how incredibly inept they will all be. And when you take it on yourself to fix everything and keep the companies on task to fulfill what you bought, they will be rude and incapable of helping. But, I'm happy to explain it all in detail so you can avoid the $1,800+ horror I'm living right now.

    I bought this about a month ago. It was delivered as expected but then no one called to schedule installation as the product directions instructed. I called Home Depot, who forwarded me to their Installations Department who promptly informed me that they have nothing to do with these installations. After 4 calls back and forth and dropped transfers, I finally go to someone at Home Depot who at least could tell me the name and 800 number of the third party sub-contractor they hire (Go Configure) to handle the installations. But, like all bad stories, this is the beginning, not the end.

    I reached their scheduling department, who informed me that in fact, they had been calling me and scheduled an appointment for exactly a week from that day. I said I had not received any calls and then the person re-read the notes and confirmed that in fact, no one had actually ever called me to let me know. However, I was happy to hear that the installation was scheduled for 9/28 between 4-8pm. I asked if it was a fairly simple installation, since it gets dark during that window and they said it was but the guys were speedy.

    On 9/28, a single person showed up at 5:15 pm. He was very nice and clearly capable but he readily admitted that the company he works for is a sub-contractor of this company and that the company is awful at scheduling and managing jobs. My father-in-law helped him schlep all the boxes to the backyard and then he discovered that there were no instructions with them! So I was tasked with printing out 88+ pages from the website and told it would be incredibly difficult to put it together this way. As it was getting dark, he opted to leave his stuff here and said he would be back later in the week. I have no idea how 1 person was expected to start between 4-8pm and put the playset together before the end of the day. Yet, that is what the scheduling company told me the week prior. And the story continues...

    Meanwhile, my calls to the company resulted in being told that they were "shocked" only 1 person came out, that is it always two people, and that they would reschedule for a later date. They suggested that maybe his helper was unable to come for some reason. They never called me back. Now it is 3 days later and I have only heard from the individual who showed up on Monday -- and that is because we exchanged cell #s. I called the company Go Configure to complain that I hadn't heard anything and needed information. The first person I spoke to told me that I was welcome to call back when I could be "pleasant" to her and then hung up on me. Yes, hung up on me. This was after I mentioned the hurricane and she said it wasn't in the notes. Clearly a very bright individual.

    So I called back, asked for a manager, and prompted, sat on hold for about 10 minutes. The manager I ended up speaking to was certainly not a manager by any skills or training. She had a terrible attitude and simply kept repeating they had scheduled someone to come out tomorrow. I explained to her that we are supposed to have a hurricane, that I didn't understand why I was always reaching out to their company and never getting any incoming calls from them, and that I needed to get this situation fixed. She couldn't care less. She also told me that they had called me yesterday to tell me the technician was injured which is weird because it would have no bearing on anything and I never received a call. I told her that was a lie but she didn't care and just moved on. Their entire company has the same attitude.

    And why not they don't answer to you, the customer. You technically didn't hire them and they certainly have no responsibility to refund the money you paid. Neither does Home Depot because this part isn't their job. No one in the entire chain bears any responsibility for completing any service you pay for. My recommendation: Buy a self-install playset and hire a local person to install it. For the $425 (that's the portion of the cost they get as per Go Configure), you can definitely get two decent people to come put it together at your house without all of this stress. I really wish I had done that. This experience has been a complete nightmare. Did I mention there is a pile of playset pieces in my backyard, that it didn't come with any directions, and there is a hurricane coming? Terrific. Thanks Home Depot, for putting your name on something I cannot and should not trust.

    Bought an LG refrigerator for $3500.00 at Home Depot and purchased the five-year extended warranty. Two year later after two services for no cool, four no-show appointments and over 10 calls, Home Depot Warranty is claiming that LG is responsible and LG is not taking responsibility. NOTE: SAVE YOUR MONEY AND DON'T BUY THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY. IT IS A SCAM. TAKE MY WORD FOR IT. Family of six without a refrigerator. Purchased it for wife on Valentine's and now in Limbo. Do not bug LG either due to www.lgrefrigeratorsettlement.com.

    When I signed up for the Home Depot credit card, I made a mistake. It was late at night. The clerk said emphatically that I must provide my social security number for the card. NO... That is against the law but Citi is a financial institution (yada, yada, yada). I requested auto pay for the card. That worked for the FIRST month. When I went to HD to buy some items, the register would not accept my card.

    I called HD/Citibank and someone told me I had NOT paid my previous month's bill. I told the person I had auto pay, so the auto pay went through and I could use the HD card some more. HOWEVER, I noticed on that month's statement that HD/Citi charged me a late fee of $25 and the interest charge. The following statement reversed those charges. IMPORTANT INFO: Capital One told me that this type of "hidden change" occurs quite often. I had a somewhat similar experience with Norton/Symantec on an auto-renew for software I was no longer using. BOTTOM LINE: If you have auto pay, check that it is working.

    I ordered a new toilet (1.5 gpm) at the Watertown store around 7/28/15. The first attempted delivery came a few weeks later. I opened the box with the delivery men there. Part of the pedestal was broken in two places. PLUS... the water tank had previously had a break that someone fixed with clear cement! Naturally, I returned it. The next attempt did not even get to my door because UPS found damage before it shipped it to me. (Hooray for UPS.) Finally, the third attempt was successful. My plumber was able to install a new toilet.

    After sending in a payment ON TIME, it was applied to wrong account. After TWO months of hassling with them, they would NOT credit late fee, even with copy of check. They said it was a DAY late. Check shows it was deposited on due date. They screwed my credit score. They said "tough pay the late fee or keep getting billed". I paid the late fee (under protest) AND STILL was charged fees. Took 2 more phone calls to get late fees removed, but they won't contact credit rating services.

    Bought a new Samsung washer to replace a 4 year old one. This new washer was purchased at the West Cobb store in Marietta GA, August 1 2015. Today September 28, the new washer flooded my downstairs part of my home. Called Home Depot, told nothing they could do, was told call Samsung. So Home Depot doesn't mind selling the products but they want no responsibility for the product. Just give Home Depot the profit, no service, no help. Well, Home Depot, how about no more of my business?

    I am a extremely dissatisfied customer of Home Depot and its service repair affiliate. I have been without an operating refrigerator for 2 months, an outrageous period of time for anyone to live without one. I go around and around and around in circles calling over and over to the customer service line and the protection plan line and the service repair company. I am told over and over again about my service is coming and that my replacement request for a refrigerator is denied. Two months now and no end is in sight, no parts have arrived, a service appointment was missed, a service appointment was useless.

    It began with my initial call on August 10 and a scheduled appointment on August 14. The repairman arrived to my house with no technical expertise or tools to repair my refrigerator, simply looking at the refrigerator and telling me that the machine should be shut off for 24 hours and turned back on and everything would be quite ok. How insulting to me.

    I experienced an initial food loss. And based on this man's instructions I suffered a second food loss. I requested a second repair visit, they never showed up, how outrageous is that. I rescheduled a third appointment and by now it was September 10th, a month, with no refrigerator. The technician arrived and utilized his meters and equipment. He immediately identified that the refrigerator's compressor was malfunctioning and needed to be replaced. The appointment on August 14 should have identified that if that repairman had any competence at all. On September 10th, the repairman told us it would take 7-10 business days for the part to arrive. Guess what, no part and no calls to let me know about the status.

    I just made my umpteenth call now and this is how it went, start from the beginning like every other call. And told me to wait to hear from the repair company, what good is that they haven't told me a thing yet. I asked for a new refrigerator and I was told it will be denied again and has already been denied 2 times before from my previous requests. I have asked for a temporary refrigerator at least so I could live, I was told, "We don't do that."

    I asked for a supervisor again for the umpteenth time raised to the second power. I was told one will call me back, and for what, so I can be told again that nothing is going to be done to fix my refrigerator. What a joke what an embarrassment. I will never shop at the Home Depot for an appliance ever again and I will make sure to tell everyone and anyone that I come I contact what an atrocious experience I have had with this company, this company is completely irresponsible and uncaring and treats its customers like a nail or screw on the shelf.

    I requested a food loss and estimated that the two incidents resulted in my losing $580. I was denied a full reimbursement as I was told this is a single incident and a single incident is limited to $300 reimbursement. It was two events from a food loss perspective. With the initial incident I reported and then when I foolishly listened to the initial repairman and replaced my food and had it spoil a second time. Home Depot has taught me a lesson, an unfortunate acerbic lesson, which I am continuing to pay for each day as I live without a refrigerator. This has disrupted my life as my social plans have been calamitous as we try to bring food into the house each day to eat and maintain unspoiled food to serve to ourselves and our guests.

    I'm done talking to the service department and have decided to begin to take up a personal action plan to tell everyone about the careless nature of your company. And if I stop one single sale, that will be satisfaction to me, and with each sale I stop that your company makes I will grow more satisfied. Signed a former Home Depot customer and now a loyal dissenter who will not rest while seeking retribution for what has been done to me by your company.

    We had vinyl flooring installed in 4 rooms. We were happy with the installers, they did a good job. The problem is the poor service of the installation scheduling. We were given a date to have it installed 5 weeks after the flooring came in. After several phone calls through these 5 weeks, we were told they couldn't find an installer any sooner. Installers (3 men from 3 hours from our home) came on the date we were given. The installers told us that they got the call for this job on Saturday. 2 days before installation date we were given. Wonder what we would have been told on Monday morning if installers could not be found. Even the installers could not believe it took that long to find someone.

    First I would like to emphasize that I am extremely disappointed and feeling injured with the product and customer service I received from Home Depot. Last Wednesday I received a desk that I bought 20 days ago. Today I hired a person to come to my house and assemble the desk. To our surprise when we opened the box we verified that the desk was broken (one of the sides of the top of the desk was completely broken).

    So I promptly and already upset with the situation, given that I had already lost one hour of my Saturday and paid a person to assemble the desk, called the customer service where I was underserved and where I was given the following and absurd option: make a new purchase on the internet - meaning paying AGAIN the price already paid. Set the desk back in the box - the desk is extremely heavy, and wait another 2 weeks to receive the new desk should I buy again today.

    In addition the Home Depot would call me to schedule a day to take broken desk. Should I miss my work day to return the desk??? Last but not least, I’ll be only receiving the refund for the broken desk in 10 days and of course by that time I’ll have already paid for the new desk. In conclusion, Home Depot is offering me a $15 discount for all this inconvenience. Of course, this disrespectful discount doesn’t even pay for one hour of my handyman.

    The HD on Bitters in San Antonio, Texas has two people who love to answer the phone at Customer Service desk, especially if they have no clue what goes on in the store, and especially a boy named Louis who has to "put you on hold to research the situation." Really? Customer Service does not exist at Home Depot. Customer Service does not exist in San Antonio. No wonder other metropolitan cities laugh at San Antonio. I was given an option of a.m. delivery or p.m. delivery. Because I have to drive 125 miles each way to accept delivery, I chose the p.m. window of 12-6.

    After waiting patiently until 4:00 and receiving no courtesy phone call, I called and spoke to someone in charge. Wow! Leslie blew my mind. She said the p.m. window, she informed me was 12-7 and that they would deliver until they were through even if it took them past 7:00. And she enjoyed every word she spat out. I'm sure my call made Leslie's day. But that's par for this Podunk town. Leslie, it's not entirely your fault. But you are a reflection of the GM of Home Depot on Bitters in San Antonio.

    Bought this fridge (Whirlpool Gold 28.6 cu. ft. french door refrigerator in black ice, model: wrf989sdae) for $2,499 plus tax in Dec 2012. Paid for extended warranty. Fridge totally crapped out August 2015. Still under extended warranty. Home Depot sent out a third party repair company, authorized appliance repair in Glendale AZ & the repairman said it was not repairable and he would report it as such.

    After 2 weeks, I called Home Depot customer service. They gave me the phone # of the warranty company. So I called them and they said check was in the mail. Then I waited 2 weeks and no check or credit. So I called again. They said they were the old warranty company for Home Depot and the new company was "Asurion". So I called Asurion. They said parts were ordered by authorized appliance repair of Glendale AZ. The same company whose repairman said the refrigerator was "not repairable." So now, it apparently is repairable. Might have something to do with the price of over $2,600 including tax. I have been without a fridge for over a month. Do not buy this fridge and do not trust or rely upon Home Depot's so called "extended warranty."

    After one rescheduled delivery appointment due to our schedule, and a month after the original purchase, washer is brought by delivery and installation guys. They take a look at it and decide it is an installation they will not perform because the drain pipe location is too high. They will not even move the old washer out and set the new machine in its place. They are stating they will not warranty it. I ordered the machine returned to the store for a refund to my credit card. The issue seems to be that the laundry location is in the basement - exactly where it's been for years and years. This house was built in 1919. I have no clue as to when the connections for the washing machine were installed, but to get the wastewater to sewer level the sewer location is more than the current standard of 3' high, closer to 5'. That is the installers' issue.

    My issue and the reason for my EXTREME displeasure is the failure of The Home Depot sales people to ask questions about the installation location. All of this could have been avoided and we could have a working washer in the basement right now. I am not stupid and highly capable to do the installation myself. However at 65 years of age I am tired of moving washers around in the damned basement, and much prefer to pay for a delivery and installation. So much for trusting a big box store like THD to sell and install an appliance.

    Updated 9/26/2015 - Stopped in at a local Lowe's store. Exact same model on display for the same price. Discussed the issue we had at The Home Depot, and the 3rd party delivery refusal to warrant their installation, and their statement that they would not perform the job. It seems that The Home Depot guys just didn't want to do their job for which I had paid. The EXACT same model at Lowe's has a long enough waste water hose to reach the sewer stub to put the factory waste line into. I discussed the entire issue with Lowe's appliance sales person and bought the washing machine on the spot. Not only that I paid approximately $85 less for exactly the same as we had purchased at The Home Depot. Guess who gets my business now? PS: the basement delivery is at street level, accessed through the garage at the side of the house, level and straight in.

    Called warranty number on 9/16/15 explaining what the dryer was not doing and that a repair person needed to come out. They took the information and stated first available appointment would be 9/22/15 between the hours of 8 am and 12 pm. Received call from repair people on the 9/21/15 and hours changed to 2 pm to 6 pm. When repair person came they changed a belt and dryer still would not work. Stated that a new motor and switch were needed and it would take an additional 3 to 10 business days. Talked with warranty department twice and they stated the parts were at the repair shop. Spoke to repair shop on the 9/24/15 and still "no sign of parts" and it would still take 3 to 10 business days. This means that we are inconvenienced for approximately half a month without a dryer.

    I realize that I may sound inpatient but this is bunk... if we had paid for a repairman to come out the dryer would be fixed!!! Making matters worse, not only did we pay cash for the dryer we also paid cash for the warranty. Never again with Home Depot or Samsung. 8 days and counting without a piece of equipment needed to run a household especially for someone in a wheelchair.

    The freezer section of our LG refrigerator is not working. Called the home warranty department of Home Depot since we purchased the extended warranty. They scheduled an appointment for us for someone to come out 5 days later. That serviceman called to confirm the appointment and we were able to get them out sooner. He came out and said he doesn't fix LG refrigerators. Called Home Depot again - said they'd need to find someone in our area and would call back in 24-48 hours. Waited - no return call. Called again - same response - "will find someone and call us back within 24-48 hours."

    I emailed them and received a call the next day - since no service for LG in our area it's gone to the manager and we'll get a call back in 24-48 hours!!! What??? In the meantime, I don't have a freezer and now my frig section isn't staying as cool as it used to. Why did they sell me a LG refrigerator and warranty if they have no one to repair it??? Very frustrated. Will not purchase another LG appliance and especially not through Home Depot since they don't get back to you on getting it fixed or replaced as they state they do.

    We placed an order for a toilet on Homedepot.com on 9/3/15. The product was shipped to a store and arrived sooner than expected (on 9/8/15) but was damaged. The store called to let me know and I was transferred a few times, put on hold, and ultimately was told to call homedepot.com. I was told they would reorder the item and they would give me a 10% discount (which showed up fairly quickly on my credit card statement).

    On 9/14/15 I received an email that I needed to contact homedepot.com to give them more information on the reorder. When I called in, I was told they could not order a new toilet that way and that a new order was never placed and that the item was now out of stock online (but in their warehouse). I was told the item would be restocked online in 24 hours and that a new order would be placed. I got another email on 9/16/15 with my original order so I called in to double check. Good thing I did, because it was not an actual order and the item was still out of stock online. I was told it would take up to 72 hours to show up on their website and I would be notified immediately so I could place another order and that they would cancel the original order.

    Today is 9/22/15 and there is no credit on my credit card yet for the cancelled order, it has been more than 72 hours, and the toilet is still not back in stock. Overall, I have called Home Depot at least 7 times, been on the phone for at least 2 hours total, spoken with many incompetent employees, have no toilet, no refund, and don't know if I will receive a toilet before our bathroom remodel is scheduled to finish. We will be placing our order through another site as I will no longer be shopping at Home Depot. Really disappointed with their level of service and the inconsistent answers I received when calling in.

It was my fault I would disassemble and return it but it is not my fault. Second thanks for the generous idea of giving gift card. I could buy the defected bed from as is furniture department cheaper with no assembly.

It is now 21 September 2015 & NO GASKETS & NOW the fridge & freezer are now no longer working. The fridge temp is 67 degrees & Freezer drawers are at 30 degrees! Probably burnt up the entire fridge due to the doors & drawers not sealing. We have an extended warranty through Home Depot until 21 November 2015 & now we have NO FRIDGE OR FREEZER & we are being told that someone will contact us & they MIGHT be able to get a technician here with 7 to 10 days. "Might". Problem is even if they FIX the entire fridge / freezer, if they don't replace the gaskets then we will be RIGHT BACK WHERE WE STARTED! Right now I REFUSE to ever purchase another LG or an extended Warranty through Home Depot EVER again.

    Updated on 10/21/2015: We began this journey back in MAY 2015, & now OCT 2015 we are STILL having issues! They have now literally replaced almost every part in this fridge & it STILL won't cool & freeze properly! We are at exactly 4 weeks until our warranty runs out & this is a TRAVESTY! We will NEVER purchase another LG appliance again nor will we purchase appliances & extended warranties from Home Depot EVER again!

    It's been three weeks for a family of 8 without a washing machine in the house. First it took a week for the repairman to come out. Then He has to order the part. HD has to ship it. HD doesn't put a tracking number on it and it's going to take 3-5 business days to get there. Still waiting. I won't be using HD extended warranty in the future. Don't use the Home Depot Extended warranty on appliances.

    The middle of August, I had bought a freeze faucet, another outside faucet, and the drain/strainer for a kitchen sink (about $40.00). Didn't need any of these so went to return them. NO DEAL. I was told that I have been blackballed on their RAR reports and could not return an item without a receipt. A few days later, I tried again, with the receipt and again informed me I couldn't return any item I bought because I was on the "RAR report" even so I have bought from them for years and do remodeling and have income property.

    So I emailed customer service about this "blackballing RAR report". Today I finally got an email back from customer service how they wanted to "help my situation" and told me to talk to the store manager, which means another chance for the Lancaster TX store to embarrass me. They have missed out on the sale of a $480 water heater, roofing and lumber supplies, and other misc. purchases which Lowe's has LOVED receiving. BEWARE of HOME DEPOT's RAR reports and you may get to eat your purchases there as well.

    I went into the Home Depot store in Lemon Grove to return 17.00 worth of items. I did not have the receipt so I thought I would get a store credit. My return was declined and I was given an 800 number to call. I called the number and they said I didn't have a receipt. I wasn't asking for a refund but a store credit. As I stood there waiting to talk to the store manager a man walks up and returns dry wall compound without a receipt and they give him a store credit. Home Depot's customer service is gone.

    We purchased a Samsung washer in July 2014. Just before the one year mark the soap dispenser would fill up with water and certain cycles were not working. I contacted the service dept to set up a service call. The first company they set up with called to cancel then setup second appt and never showed up. I contacted service dept again and a third time the company was called. They finally came. The two men said that they ordered the part and they never looked at the rest of my cycles. They were in and out in 5 minutes and said they would ship soap dispenser to my house.

    Three weeks later I never heard anything so called service contract center. After reaching company they found out the guy lied and documented no need for anything. I set up another appt with another company. They came out and said they would let us know when parts came in. They called after 2 weeks on a Thursday and we set up service for the next day. They never showed up. I called that day the following Monday and Tuesday. They never returned my call. I called service center again asking to speak to a manager. I was connected to Richard explaining the situation. 6 days went by and I never received a call from anyone at the service plan center. I called again today and spoke with Lonnie a manager and I am told I will have to wait again for up to 3 days to hear back from a manager. I can not believe how horrible the customer service is. They did not seem to really care that I have been waiting 2 months. I would NEVER buy from Home Depot appliances. Once the appliance is bought they hire non reputable company to do their work and they take their time to fix any problem.

    I purchased $500 worth of porcelain tile for my bathroom remodel at the Madison, TN store today. The tile was available in several sizes and nice quality. However, they had ONE box of bullnose to finish the edges. I had previously looked at this same tile in the Hendersonville store; same situation. They told me they usually stock only a couple of boxes of the bullnose. After checking with 5 other area stores, I found that I will have to get the remaining 40 tiles I need by traveling a total of 156 miles to 3 other locations because none of them have more than 1 or 2 boxes. This is ridiculous! I was told they used to have a truck that traveled between the Nashville stores to pick up products that customers requested when it wasn't in their local store but that is no longer done. Very poor customer service decision! Home Depot needs to realize they have competition. I will think twice about purchasing tile there again.

    On the hottest day of the year in early August our Maytag refrigerator stopped cooling. Had to go out, buy ice, and move food into ice chests. At first I was relieved that we actually bought the service plan as we normally waive that option. Called Home Depot for service. We had a guy come out and said ice was blocking the fan. He didn't do anything since. By this time the ice had melted and the fan worked on its own. However, the tech claimed there was a circuit board that needed to be replaced 'since they always go out' on these models. I noticed at this time the fridge's compressor was on 24/7 which is not normal. Besides sucking up a ton of power, it is noisy all hours of the day.

    The tech came out about a week later, replaced the board, but the fridge was still running 24/7. Called Home Depot. A 2nd tech was supposed to call but never did wasting my time. Called back Home Depot, made another appointment. This time somebody did come out but said it was normal. Normal for the compressor to be on 24/7??? I think not. Ever since this call, I cannot get anybody from Home Depot to call me back despite promises made. I must have called Home Depot over 10 times and have NEVER received a promised call back from anybody with any decision making authority. About to go to small claims court regarding their warranty promises. It is nothing but a SCAM!

When I get to the register, the person at the register wanted to charge me for the price it was before instead of the sale price. I was suppose to pay $126.50 but the cashier was charging me $252 which is more than double the sale price. She called someone to help fix this problem but no one came to fix it.

    Like most companies trying to brand their products, Home Depot offers its own Consumer Credit Card. I have excellent credit in the 800s and pay my credit balance off every month. As such, I usually stay away from these high-interest cards that carry no real rewards. However, as part of their Labor Day savings they offered an additional 10% off purchases in the form of a coupon to be used by the close of 9/9.

    Considering I am in the middle of a whole house renovation and coupled with their extremely low appliance prices this was a very attractive offer. So I signed up online and received instant approval. I had imagined a larger limit than 1700.00 on the account considering my outstanding credit and high limits on my other cards. This wasn't even 10% of my lowest card. But it did still offer the 10% coupon. So I signed up for it and took an immediate 5 point deduction in credit score for doing so. Still, a 10% coupon made it attractive. So I price the appliances and go to check out then realize nowhere on my account does it have a full credit card number, just the last 4.

    Searching every option under the online account yielded nothing. A thirty-minute phone call involving three different reps finally yielded me a 16-digit number! Ecstatic, I continued my purchase and used the 10% off coupon for an additional $150 savings. Well, worth the credit ding and the hassle of getting an actual number to use it, or so I thought. Ten minutes later I received a disturbing email saying my order had the payment declined. What?! So began another round of phone tag with several different department reps until someone was able to assist me.

    Apparently they didn't know why it was declined since it was a new account and had never been used, and after a second round of verifying who I was, they proceeded to get me to an ordering specialist who could rectify the situation. So began the reordering process. And everything was going well until the 10% coupon discount, which could not be used. Why? Because it had been used when I originally placed the order which was declined for some unknown reason but still couldn't be used again even though it was never really used the first time.

    After several minutes on hold, the rep came back saying what they could do was charge me the full price, go back in and take a percentage off (supposedly 10-15 minutes later after the purchase had been made) and the 10% credit would reflect later (supposedly 3-5 days). A seemingly ok workaround except that now the price was above the extremely low 1700.00 credit limit of the card so it couldn't be authorized. WOW. So that means I would now have to remove an item to get below the credit limit. Appliances are high priced items so now I'm losing the discount on something that was the ONLY reason to sign up for this "deal".

    We seemed to be at an impasse. Do I just blindly take a "bait and switch" deal after spending some much time and frustration that really benefits the company more than myself? No. Enough. If an hour and a half of trying to get their "10% off for signing up" wasn't worth the effort of actually getting a bargain beyond what everyone else was getting without it I might as well make the purchases all on one of my rewards cards.

    So after another 20 minutes of being jockeyed to different departments, I was able to just cancel the useless Home Depot Consumer Credit Card. In short, I signed up for the Home Depot Consumer Credit Card and all I got out of it was not a 10% discount but a night full of technical error frustration, 5 points off my credit score and a hard inquiry that will be there for 2 years. Thanks a lot, Home Depot. And for the record, I can do it, but you obviously can't help.

    Home Depot continues to decline with respect to the knowledge of their personnel. 9 out of 10 times they give me incorrect information on an online order or return.

The group or company assigned to do the estimate kept rescheduling, finally saying (after 2 months of rescheduling) that they didn't perform that service and sent me back to Home Depot to "fix" their error.

    Went back to the tile department where the order was placed and they said I had to go to the customer service desk for a refund. The people at the customer service desk said I had to call the "corporate desk" and gave me a number. I called and they said the refund couldn't be processed over the phone and sent me back to the customer service desk. Back at the customer service desk I got the same run around so I asked to speak with a manager. The manager was no help. Called the number they gave right there at the desk and the two sides disagreed as to how it was to be handled. NEVER DID GET A RESOLUTION. Will never go to Home Depot for ANY service again.

    Over the years, Home Depot has alternately given me and not given me a 10% discount when I showed my military ID (it is an old one I retained when I received honorary retirement many years ago).

Last week, I went to our HD store to make a small purchase and when asked if I had a HD card, I said I did not, but I did have a military ID which HD no longer accepted.

    The cashier, Jeffie, assured she and all but one of the cashiers/employees in their store would be glad to accept the card for the military discount. So, I will once again take my business back to HD, mainly because it is closer to my home than Lowes, and because the employees there seem to be more knowledgeable and helpful than elsewhere.

When I called customer service I was told that because I paid too early, my account was credited twice in June and I did not pay July, so they started a whole cycle of late charges even though I had paid each month and actually was paying more than was due.

    Waste of money. 8/23/15 Samsung fridge stopped working, repairman came out 8/25, part needed to be ordered, will be back 8/27/15. No show, no call. Wasted a day out of work. Call into warranty department - part on back order, they will call me back. Had to call back 9/1 to be informed part located but no time frame can be given - informed to call back next week to find out when part has come in. 9/4 call in to find out part is still on order, no specific date can be given when repair will take place. They will not reimburse for a new fridge, will not allow me to exchange for another fridge, will not refund me the cost of the warranty. Informed to called back 9/8/15.

    The warranty means you will be waiting 2 plus weeks (and counting) with no specific time frame at which your warranted product will be repaired, that you will lose days out of work with no show, no calls from service providers, that you will most likely have to replace the item anyways out of your pocket. Both Customer support and the Warranty department will not call you back when they say they will.

    I am willing to work with you Home Depot. I am a reasonable person:
    1. Reimburse me for the refrigerator OR
    2. Allow me to bring this one in to a store and swap it out for a similar one. OR

    3. Give me an exact date when the refrigerator will be fixed. Reimburse me for the food lost (200). Refund me the warranty service plan (70) which I deem as useless.

    Feel free to contact me Home Depot ONLY if you have the authority fulfill any of my requests. Do not waste my time or yours. I can provide service numbers/ticket numbers. Bottom line - The warranty is worthless. Both Customer support and the Warranty department will not call you back when they say they will.

    I purchased three appliances for a renovation on my house. The appliances were on sale, and were purchased in May 2015, though I did not anticipate needing them until August 2015. Again, they were on special, so I bought earlier than they were needed. They were delivered to my house in May 2015. I recently (Aug. 2015) opened up the crates that they were shipped in to find a big dent in the $1700 stove.

    When I called Home Depot, they directed me to speak with GE. After 25 prompts, and 15 minutes on the phone, GE said they are only responsible for shipping damage for 24 hours. When I called Home Depot customer service back, I was directed to a surly store manager in the Nashua store (where the items were purchased). She informed me that Home Depot is only responsible for shipping damage for 72 hours, and that I would have been told this by the salesperson. Well, I was not "told this by the salesperson". In addition, I checked all paperwork associated, and have found nothing about a 72 hours inspection period. Am considering a claim with the Better Business Bureau.

    Funny thing from all this is that I was one of 20 of the largest buyers from one of the Home Depot stores, and was invited to a elite customer appreciation luncheon. In 2011, I spent toward $100,000 at Home Depot through my business. I guess if this is not resolved, Home Depot wins a minor dispute, but loses a good loyal customer.

    My husband and I had someone from Home Depot come out and give us an estimate on replacing our shower, putting tile in our tiny bathroom and laundry area floor. (56 square feet total for both rooms) They also replaced the sink and showed fixtures. The man estimated the job at 17,200 dollars, after a ten percent discount. Stupidly, without getting another estimate, we signed with Home Depot. We were told it would be 4 to 6 weeks for supplies to arrive then they would call to schedule a start date. All costs were paid up front on the day we signed. During the six week period, we received two canned e-mails from Home Depot saying virtually, "Hang tight, we want you to be happy with your experience, bla bla bla." After three months passed, my husband called and asked for a start date. They came out the following week.

    The work crew did a wonderful job. They were professional and courteous. I have since viewed two bathroom remodels done by other companies. I was sick to my stomach when I saw what how much they got for their dollar in comparison to what we paid for much less. We got a shower, 56 square feet of floor tile, two sets of faucet fixtures, cost for tear out and removal, and labor for $17,200. No one's fault but ours for not shopping around. A pricey lesson to learn, but learn we have. No more Home Depot for us.

    I purchased a stackable washer/dryer combo (model #LTG52443DQ) from the Home Depot in Jersey City earlier this year along with the Protection Plan. I had to have a closet renovated so that it would fit in my condo and after completing renovations to fit the exact specs of the unit, had it hooked up and run in mid-July. After using the unit for only 3 weeks, in the middle of the rinse cycle, the unit stopped working. With a full load of laundry in it, the washer would not drain. This happened in the evening, so after wringing out all of my clothes, I promptly called Home Depot the next morning.

    I was told that I had to call the manufacturer (Whirlpool) to get the issue resolved. After attempts via phone to get the machine working (turning the machine off/back on, etc), it was evident that service was needed. Unfortunately, service could not be accommodated for a week meaning the water had to sit in the unit the whole time and our machine was unusable. The manufacturer warranty service provider (Dan Marc) has been awful. We've had 4 different appointments with them of which they didn't show up for 2 because of scheduling errors. I've taken 4 days off of work and nothing has been done!

    When they first came out, the Dan Marc employee explained that a new capacitor was needed to repair the machine because the water wouldn't drain at the start of the spin cycle. He did not have the right parts with him, so he had to order it and come back when it was in (which he explained would be a few days not the case). Another week went by and after scheduling the appointment for a Friday (that Dan Marc changed the time multiple times) and taking another day off of work, they did not show up for the appointment.

    I was able to get a hold of the technician and he came to the condo on Saturday and replaced 2 parts, the capacitor and the motor, and explained that the machine still didn't work. He said that the transmission was broken, deemed the machine unrepairable and told both me and my wife that we needed a new machine. He urged us to go to Home Depot immediately and explain what happened. In fact, he told us to complain as this is unacceptable for a machine that was only in use for 3 weeks. We did just that.

    After about 30 minutes of waiting to get to the right person, we complained to the Specialty Department Supervisor, Danny **. who said that it was out of his hands. He called Whirlpool and said we had to go through the service provider (Dan Marc) AGAIN. Keep in mind that we purchased the Protection Plan when we bought the unit which has proven to be a complete waste. I've tried to call Danny numerous times to follow up and have only received a call back once. This entire process has gone too long and has been completely unacceptable.

    My wife is expecting a child any minute and we don't have a functioning washer or dryer. Home Depot, Whirlpool and Dan Marc have been quick to point the finger at everyone else which has led to me pulling my hair out trying to get this fixed for weeks. After being told that we had to go through Dan Marc again for another attempt at servicing the machine, they did not show up. I reached out to Home Depot corporate for help only to continue to get the runaround. I was told that you will not replace the machine and that we have to try replacing the transmission. The problem is, Dan Marc never shows up and I cannot afford to continue taking days off of work.

    Despite my complaints, Home Depot refuses to offer anything in return. They point the finger back at Whirlpool and the service provider even though they sold me the unit in the first place. Because of my problems with Dan Marc, I told Whirlpool and Home Depot that I no longer want to use Dan Marc for service calls. They pointed me in the direction of another service provider that can't make it out for another 2 weeks! I don't have that kind of time. They now want me to take another day off of work to accommodate another service provider coming out - without any guarantee that the new transmission will work. They told me that they need the service repair person to install the transmission and to have him know that if it doesn't work, they'll move forward as necessary. Instead, I offered to take a day off of work for when a new replacement unit arrives - which they balked at.

    In conclusion, I'm not confident that someone from Home Depot will actually help, instead I'll probably get shuffled around in the endless rabbit hole of phone calls and "follow-ups" like I've been. In reality, the only thing I'm asking for is a machine that works. I believe that is a fair request considering I paid for it. Home Depot has made this whole process a nightmare. My wife and I have been without a working washer/dryer for well over a month which is completely unacceptable.

    Can someone please help us? My wife will be delivering our first child at any moment now and I don't think it's too much to ask to have a working washer/dryer BEFORE that happens. We would like Home Depot to remove the broken washer/dryer and replace it with a new one of the same model - in a timely fashion. If that is not possible, we expect a full refund plus haul away as well as reimbursement for work wages for days taken off and reimbursement for laundry done out of home over the past month.

    I recently purchased a quart tub of premixed grout from HomeDepot.com. When I received it, there was a large slit across the side of the plastic tub that had been sealed shut with clear tape. Obviously this will never keep the grout fresh, so I requested a return. After 6 phone calls with some of the rudest and surliest customer service reps I have ever had the misfortune to encounter, and more than 30 minutes on hold, I finally got a supervisor who was as rude and snotty as any of the reps I had spoken with. She insisted that my product was a "hazmat" (even though the online listing said nothing of the sort) and if I wanted my money back I would have to bring it to one of their stores. It's not likely I will find myself in the vicinity of a Home Depot anytime soon - this is why I placed the order online in the first place - so I doubt I will ever get that refund.

    Bottom line - Home Depot knowingly sold me a product that was damaged, attempted to conceal that damage, refused to allow me to return it to the point of purchase, and treated me with contempt when I complained. Next time maybe they'll just rob me at gunpoint - the result will be the same and it will be less frustrating. One more thing - there is a customer satisfaction survey available at the end of each phone call to Home Depot, but the customer service rep must disconnect the call to allow you to proceed to the survey. Every last one of the customer service reps I spoke with, including the supervisor, failed to disconnect the call. They know if I hang up first I won't have the opportunity to complain about them.

    My husband and I were in the store and had most of our shopping done. We thought the store closed at 9pm but it closed at 8. It was a Sunday night and we were going to kitchen cabinets to get out big items when a loud mouthed employee was behind us across the store, yelling, "Sir, Sir you know the store is closed now don't you?" It was 4 minutes after 8 and we didn't know but my husband replied, "We are just going to run back and get our cabinets." To this the man replied, "You better hurry up because there probably won't be anybody to check you out!"

    I told my husband to just forget it and we walked out without purchasing a thing. There was no customer service announcement overheard to remind shoppers when the store was closing, not one person bother to POLITELY approach us and advise us of the time nor at any point during our shopping did one person EVER ask if we needed any help. Yes we were at fault for not checking the closing time but I work in retail and had I acted in such a rude and degrading manner to a customer I would be terminated! Avoid the Home Depot in ANY Missouri location!

    My experience today at store #1106 wasn't a pleasant visit. It all started when me and my contractor with 323 Construction Company came to finish purchasing fencing planks for my custom design wood fence. After waiting almost two hours trying to purchase the material only t is told that there wasn't enough and Brett came up with some excuse not professional at. If it wasn't for your cashiers Alexis and Frances, I was about to take my $600.00 plus and leave but they were very customer friendly, also the young ** male with dreads went over and beyond. Please work with your customer service desk. I stood there waiting for some assistance only to be acknowledge after she heard the phone ring, didn't acknowledge me until she got off the phone, only to be told that I would have to walk all the way back outside and get the SKU number so that she could preorder my 6ft x 8ft Half Moon fence, which was about $55.00 dollars.

    Well she lost that sale because I was looking to purchase 25, which is $1,375.00 before tax. The young gentleman notifies his manager but I was too upset to stick around. I know one customer don't make a difference, but your company might want to reconsider how they deal with customers because our new subdivision off Rawl Road here in Lexington, SC utilizing your business very frequently. When I came to your store on Saturday the service was excellent. Spent over $300.00. I don't have to do that math. $600 + 300 = $900 before taxes. Always remember no one knows who might be a secret shopper.

    I started purchasing Sparkletts water a few years back, in the five-gallon bottles. When I originally purchased a few, I had to pay a five dollar deposit on the bottles that I purchased. After a year or so, I quit buying bottled water there because I installed a R.O. system in my kitchen and most often than not, when I would go to Home Depot to buy more, they were out of water. Now, I tried to return two empty bottles back to the store to get my deposit back, they would not return my deposit. I was told by the head cashier that I would need to provide her with the original receipt, going back three years, when I originally paid the deposit on the bottles...

    Then she went on to tell me that she didn't care if I was to shop elsewhere from now on. Home Depot does not need nor want my business anymore. Lowes and Ace Hardware is close by and I will shop there from now on. And The Home Depot Card will now go in the shredder!

    I went to the Home Depot on Veterans Road in Staten Island to purchase an extremely large supply of garden rocks, they come in bags. In the past when I've purchased smaller amounts, I have just pick the bags up myself and put them into a cart. HOWEVER, I recently had a cast taken off of my foot so I did not want to lift the bags and cause stress to my foot. I asked the cashier in the Garden department if she could have somebody paged to come and load all of the bags onto a cart and then put them in the back of my car, she paged someone twice. I then called the store because I was still standing where the rocks are stored. I called the store twice and I asked them to page somebody and I could hear them paging someone but no one answered.

    I then called and I asked if I could speak to the manager and I was told that he is busy and she does know where he is, so I walked over to customer service and had them page the manager. 10 minutes later I had her page the manager a second time. He showed up 10 minutes after that. By now I am in the store 1 hour and I still have not been waited on nor do I have my rocks. The manager came over I told him that I have concerns about his staff and that he needs to find out why none of them are responding to the pages, explained I needed help with the rocks.

    He (Jose) spoke to me like I was an annoyance and he asked me what my problem was. I told him the whole scenario and he said there was only one person who drives a forklift and said when he is done he would send him over, so I said to him I actually pick up the bags myself I don't need a forklift I just need a guy to pick up the bags and put them in my car because I had my foot come out of the cast recently and I can put the extra weight onto it. He again repeated that there's a forklift guy and I have to wait for him in yet another 20 minutes. I left the store. For the record I was interested in around $300-$500 worth of rocks. I never got my rocks. This store's management is never visible to customers and if you do find them, they are rude and not helpful.

    I purchased a gas cooktop and an electric stove from Home Depot. On our 'measure' day a man came out and measured the kitchen. Sadly, he walked off the job and quit the next day. I had the measurements, HD had the measurements, but he hadn't filled out the required paperwork. It took HOURS of phone time talking to HD and to the delivery people to finally get a delivery date. On our 'install' date we were informed that the 'measure' guy should have informed us that an electrician needed to alter both sites. And they left. We had the electrician out and waited for our next 'install' date. Today, the install man came and it turns out that three of the five burners on the cooktop won't light unless I use a match. He says he can't help me, and leaves. I start to smell gas in the house.

    I now have an appointment to have someone come out and 'fix' the cooktop, but only if I can get the propane company out to fix the botched install first.

    This is an unacceptable disaster. No one is accountable and it's impossible to get hold of anyone in HD without wading through the main line each time. If I'd known that, unlike Sears, there would be no actual customer service, I'd never have come to HD in the future. Several appliance people have said that they 'wouldn't go to HD for more than a box of nails.' And they are right!!

    We purchased a protection plan to cover our Samsung refrigerator from Home Depot. It has been three weeks since we first reached out for a repair, and we have not seen any resolution. The only department that has any power to resolve the situation is completely insulated by a call center, which relays your complaints via email. I've called about every 2 to 3 days and literally have not spoken to anyone with any decision making ability. The call center "escalates" the issue to the solutions center, at which point the email is likely printed out and used to make a paper airplane that the solutions center employees hold up into the air as they spin around in their desk chairs and make engine noises until it's time to clock out.

    About a month ago I bought a dishwasher from your store in zip 23456 and paid for you to install it. I decided to pay the extra $100+ for the installation for peace of mind of having a professional company do the work. Unfortunately, the service I received has been anything but professional. The installers didn't seem very competent then they broke off a piece of my cabinet. They tried to deny responsibility claiming the piece of the cabinet just fell off. They finally said that they would include the incident on the invoice, however, they were complaining back and forth to each other in my home about the incident making me very uncomfortable. I contacted the store and was told that Home Depot would file an insurance claim but would not be able to help me any further.

    After several days of not hearing from anyone, I spoke with the manager of Home Depot. She said that Home Depot filed a claim and just couldn't do anything more to help. I asked for a refund of the installation fee and for Home Depot to come fix my cabinet. She said she couldn't do anything. I asked for the phone number to the insurance company so that I could follow up, and when I called I was told that it was the wrong insurance company for my claim. No wonder I never heard back from them.

    My claim number is **. That insurance company gave me the number to call another insurance company. I haven't heard back from them either. When I called the corporate customer service number they said the independent contractor that did the installation would come fix the cabinet. They are not returning my calls, and their lack of professional and competency makes them unfit to return to my home. Their phone number is 757 685-1254. I am asking for a refund of the installation fee due to this whole ordeal and for my cabinet to be fixed ASAP by a competent company. I use Home Depot all the time and would expect that you would be willing to correct this problem for me. Thank you.

I did not get a call back, so I called back then was told it would take three business days to get a call back. Since that did not happen I called back on the third day. This time I was told I would get a call by the end of the day, which I did not get. I then contacted the Neptune branch store and spoke with a manager (Nick), which told me he would escalate my claim.The next day I did get a call back this time and was given the name & number of a provider (Advanced Appliance center) that informed me that they did not cover the area in which I lived.

    Needless to say that when I called the warranty company back I was again told that I would have to wait another three days before someone would contact me in regard to the repair claim. I explained that I had already waited the three days and just needed a provider that covered my area to no avail. I called the store manager (Neptune, NJ) back to inform him that I still did not get resolution. He did inform me that he would call again to try and get me service. The store manager was trying to be helpful but the warranty company could care less.

Went out to my car and my brand new kicked me in my butt. The car I bought did not want to start. It was extremely hot and my emotions and faith began to take a toll as I send my 12year old daughter inside to get some tape. A home depot worker came out with her and asked if there was anything he can help with and I let him know my situation. He then asked to see if he can try to help with the car... He tried and tried but my ignition would not switch. He then said, "I'm sorry but no luck," and said, "I will help with anything else I can. Sorry this is happening."

    He then went back in the store. Came out with water for my kids and tape for the note I wanted to leave on my window so I can walk to get my kids something to eat. Till help came. He put carts blocking the parking next to me so I can open the doors and get air in the car and my kids were safe playing on the side... Right then he gave me hope!!! He did not have to but he did help me so much. I left and later came back to hope my car would start and help had arrived. And what you know my car started and as I looked up he was walking up. I instantly cried. A blessing a real blessing if I've ever met someone with the best attitude at work and faith it was him. Although I'm not so sure if his name was Rafael or Rex.

    I requested a quote for a privacy fence. The Salesman Jeff **, a contractor for Barrette Outdoor living who contracts with Home Depot came out. My yard has a slope on one side which I knew had to be leveled before the fence could be even on all sides. I conversed with Jeff about installing the fence after leveling the yard but wanted a quote to budget for the cost. Jeff did the measurements. I had shrubs planted on one side which he told me I would not have to cut down. He went on to tell me that they could still install the fence with me bringing in dirt to level my yard. So I asked would the fence be level on all sides with the dirt being soft and he said it would not be a problem.

    At this point based on everything that Jeff was telling me, I assumed that he was going to install the fence and oversee the job. Not one time did he say, we need to have the actual contractor to look at my yard and answer the questions that I was asking. He misrepresented himself as the installer. When the actual contractor came, he said we had to cut down all the shrubs and remove all the dirt that we had brought in to level the yard. That meant renting a bobcat for 300.00 per day and hiring people to undo work that I had paid for. Then I contacted Jeff because he was the person I spoke with and he came out on 2 different occasions and said we only needed to shave off some of the dirt and cut down the shrubs to the ground. Not one time did he ask the installer to meet him and discuss what needed to take place.

    We went back and forth and the installer said that if he installed that fence it would be on the ground at the first strong wind or rain. I asked him did he talk to Jeff because they were saying different things about what needed to happen. He stated that Jeff had not said anything to him. Due to the lies that Jeff told me and finding out that he never once spoke to the actual installer, I cancelled the contract which was 12590.0. Well Home Depot has a 35% restocking/cancellation fee in the contract which amounted to about 4700.00 which they reduced to 1259.00. When contacting Home Depot, I spoke to everybody I could to waive this ridiculous fee that added insult to injury but to no avail. Jeff had the installer fired because he would not do shabby work and install the fence anyway.

    I used Home Depot because I thought that I was dealing with a reputable company who dealt with reputable contractors but I was wrong and even though they did not put one pole in the ground, they want me to pay them 1259.00! For what, the contractors lying fee. I am still fighting them and wish I had just used a local fence company and cut out all these middle men who are taking advantage of lay consumers. Beware of any Home Depot projects and PLEASE BEWARE OF THEIR MANIPULATING CONTRACTS that are designed to make you pay even if you change your mind. The warranty was suppose to be a lifetime warranty but when Jeff start giving me double talk, I realized that it would be the same thing if the fence fell down, they would try and make it the customers fault even though it would have been installed wrong.

    Home Depot believed the contractor over the customer and he lied through his teeth. They said that I altered my yard after the contract was signed even though Jeff said it would not be a problem and he knew that if the fence could not be installed due to my yard being leveled, I would have waited till next year to install the fence. So he got greedy and did what salesmen do to make a sale, lie, lie, lie. Not all salesman, just the greedy ones. Thank God for Jesse, the actual fence installer who refused to do sloppy work and cheat customers. They fired Jesse but he is better off because a Good Name is to be chosen. NO MORE HOME DEPOT PROJECTS for me.

The store gets more ridiculous everyday; and even make the customers ring up their own items, load their items and I'm waiting for them to start charging the customer for that. There's an idea!!!

Finally, I got an actual person in the department to stumbled through it to order it. I wanted it delivered to the store, because this was for a job site. It must be delivered to my home. Forget being delivered on time or at all. After 4 dates set missed, I'm on hold waiting on the phone for an hour again helping to figure out what excuse their driver has now.

    August 2, 2015 a tornado went past a Home Depot that my brother works at and uses my car to get there in.

My brother being on the clock, could not leave during the storm or tornado warning to ensure my car's safety or move it to a better location. One of the oversized big lumber carts flew into my car during the tornado and ran all the way down the side of it causing nearly $2,500 in damages to my car. Had there been a cart attendant prior to the start of the storm, my car probably would not have suffered any damages.

    My brother filed a claim with Home Depot. The only response he got back after call for days on end was a letter that pretty much said, "I'm sorry but we do not think we are responsible." This bothers me, if they do not take care of their employees, how well do you think they actually take care of their consumers? My house suffered a lot of damage from this tornado and we are doing the repairs ourselves, we usually shop at Home Depot for supplies and materials, but since this occasion, I am now a new friend of Menards.

    I am going to tell you about my horrible recent experiences with Home Depot (Simi Valley CA store in particular) and what Home Depot can do to fix the issue. I've been a loyal retail and pro customer to Home Depot for years. I purchased my house about 2 years ago and have spent over $35,000 just at Home Depot in the past two years to remodel it. I started a kitchen remodeling and bought a Samsung refrigerator. I was told by the salesperson that if I bought a water line the delivery team would hook it up. Well, the delivery team refused, so I had to pay a plumber to do it (Strike 1).

    The refrigerator turned out to be a lemon and after exhausting my options with Samsung's support I decided to return it and get a different brand. Lowe's, Costco and Sears had another model (also carried by HD) $250 cheaper. Appliance salesperson told me that Home Depot does not match prices, so I bought a new one at Sears (Strike 2). I tried to return the old refrigerator over the phone. Over the next couple of weeks, I was repeatedly given the run around over the phone. Whenever they said they would call me back, they didn't. And whenever I called them, there was always some reason why I would have to call back. It's impossible to solve any issues over the phone (Strike 3).

    Over the next 3 weeks I had to drive to the store 5 times to arrange a pick up. I talked to several customer service reps. All of them made empty promises and none of them took ownership of the issue. The Simi Valley store management hides behind Customer Service reps and makes itself unavailable for customer interaction. The store manager failed to call me back despite my repeated pleas to do so. (Strike 4). Home Depot's appliance return policy is not comparable with its competitors. The store expects people to bring back appliances that require specialized moving equipment (refrigerators, washers, dryers etc.) and most people cannot lift. I am not a mover - I neither owe a truck nor have the means to move heavy stuff. There's gotta be a way for your company to make it easy.

    In any case, after FIVE in-person visits and 3 re-schedules a group of 3 rude men came to my house late and completely unprepared for any appliance moving. They yelled at me for not having the refrigerator in my garage (never been told to), they wanted to roll it on my new $12,000 hardwood floors not caring for any possible scratches or damage. They yelled at me for not telling them they had to bring a dolly and other moving equipment and they refused to carry the refrigerator. I had to show them the door (Strike 5). I do not believe I deserve a service like this. I made a mistake buying it in the Simi Valley, CA store. It's one of the worst in terms of customer service and employee knowledge. I recall waiting 1.5 hrs for somebody at the mill works desk to place an order only to be told that it was not the attending workers department.

    I wasted enough time with customer service reps; and the store management refuses to deal with customers. This is my last attempt to resolve the issue before I have to consider a legal action or credit card dispute. I hope I won't have to resolve to that and I hope in this age of cutthroat competition you can elevate your game and help me. I'd like to have somebody schedule a pick up time, show up on time with the right equipment, take the refrigerator back and credit me promptly. So far, this seemingly simple task has been botched by the inert uncaring employees at your Simi Valley store. I thank you for your time and hope to hear from you in any case.

You show your VA ID and you receive the discount. All veterans have put their lives on the line for this country and to be treated with such disrespect and discrimination is appalling. Prior to my being in the VA system I spent over $40,000 on a home kitchen remodel with this same store, needless to say until their policy changes and all Vets are treated equally I will no longer shop at Home Depot.

    I purchased a 1 gallon can of Glidden exterior paint in May 2015. I have filed a rebate info at HD Rebate Center web page as it was instructed. I received a message from their rebate center that the card was shipped on 07/01/15. So far I have not received any rebate card from them. I called to Customer Service today, 08/15/15. The person there told me to submit a new rebate claim by mail. You can draw your conclusion from my situation: to trust or not to trust Home Depot rebates Programs!

    $5 reward card is not a big deal compare with what I have read here about other people's experiences with Home Depot service. I agree with other people NOT TO DEAL with Home Depot! My special thank you for heads up about bathroom remodeling by a company appointed by Home Depot with a cost of more than $8000.00 instead of $4000.00. I planned to do same project at my home.

    Have been a customer of the Home Depot for the last 25 years. We have had many negative situations. Always finding solutions by working with the store managers. BUT NOW WE HAVE REACHED OUR LIMITS. My husband chose to cut up and return the Home Depot card to the Home Depot Company. Never to shop at Home Depot again. Home Depot needs to stand by the products they sell. Home Depot needs to take responsibility for the insurance company that it uses for the extended service agreements. Everything is fine until the customer needs the services.

    I have been without a refrigerator freezer for over a month. Words and promises do not fix the situations I have lost massive amounts of food from the refrigerator massive amount of frozen meat fish etc. from freezer. No ice which is very important in the hot summer days in Florida. MOST IMPORTANT I HAVE HAD TO DUMP MY DIABETIC MEDICATIONS. This has happened twice. Very expensive and heartbreaking. We are reduced to using a very micro small dorm refrigerator. Not an easy situation when you are providing food for 5 adults.

    There have been lies disrespect and promises to no avail. I am told that I now must be patient and wait until possibly the 19th of August for a solution. I cannot and will not put up with any more of this ** told to me by HOME DEPOT ASSURANT INSURANCE OR THE PEOPLE SENT TO CALL AND LIE TO ME. As I write this I realize that my only recourse is to take further action. So I really do not care if I hear from you or not. Enough of the ** dished out to me. A long standing customer. Thank you.

    We placed an order with Home Depot for tile and installation of one bathroom. An installer came to do the job from a subtractor Home Depot uses here in Ohio. He, the subcontractor made a serious error in not verifying the correct tile when opening the box and proceeded to place the tile on the floor. My husband and I went upstairs to see how far along he was with the work and saw that the wrong tile was on the floor. We told the subcontractor this and he removed the tile.

    My husband communicated with the floorings supervisor and she found out an error was done with the orders; the wrong tile # was placed by Home Depot. My husband spoke with supervisor several times and she said unable to get another person to complete the job for 10 more days! This is poor management and even worse service. No effort was by this company to correct this. Very rude and just not right. So think seriously about going elsewhere with all your home needs.

    I return some items legitimately purchased from Home Depot. I did not have a receipt so I accepted a store credit. The first and only time I tried to use the credit, it didn't work and I was told there was a zero balance on it, I was expecting a balance of $64 and change. I went to customer service and explained I had never used the credit. After about 30 minutes they managed to find a manager who allowed the rep to access the account and see if and when it was used. I was told the credit was used on 7/30/15.

    I was incredulous, I had never used the credit and asked how this was possible. They assumed I was lying and at this point they said it would go to loss prevention. I wanted to know when I was to hear something and I was told the next day. That should have been Monday August 3rd. They were contacted again on August 5th and it was like starting the process all over again. They had nothing to say and said yet again they would follow up. It has been a week and to date they have made no attempt to resolve this situation. I feel Home Depot stole my $64 and they care absolutely nothing for customer service.

    On June 6, 2015 at approx 6:00 pm, I went to the Westminster, CA Home Depot store to purchase a few items. When I was ready to leave the parking lot, a flat cart collided into my car and caused damage. The flat cart was not mine. It apparently was left roaming the parking lot by another customer. As I was assessing the damage to my vehicle, I looked around the parking lot for a store employee so they could advise me how to handle this situation. Because there was no one around, I went into the store to the Customer Service desk and explained what happened. The two store employees at the customer service desk immediately responded "this happens all the time. We receive a lot of complaints about carts always damaging cars!"

    They contacted the manager to file an incident report. Manager Michele ** took a customer incident statement and walked out to my car with me to assess the damage and take photos. The flat cart was still in the exact place and the damage with the flat cart orange paint was evident. Ms. ** explained the incident was going to be reported to The Home Depot's insurance company and they would contact me to file a claim. She asked me to contact the store if I did not hear from anyone in the next few days. A week transpired and I did not hear from the insurance company. I contacted the store and spoke with another manager. She asked me to wait another week since insurance company was out of state.

    Approximately 2 weeks after the incident, I was contacted by claims associate Evette ** of Sedgwick. Ms. ** began by asking where was I parked. I gave her the location and asked why was that relevant. She explained she had to contact the store and get a copy of the parking lot video. She wanted to see if the incident was captured on video and wanted to get a count on how many carts were in the parking lot. I asked why that was important and she responded if several carts were in the parking lot that meant the store was not attending to the parking lot.

    I explained to Ms. ** that it did not appear the parking lot was being attended because I noticed two broken sprinklers gushing water all over a customers car when I walked out of the store. Based on the amount of water, the sprinklers had been gushing out water for some time. I also reported sprinklers incident to manager. Ms. ** continued to explain that she had to investigate the incident to determine if The Home Depot was "liable." As you can imagine, I was shocked to hear this! "Why wouldn't the store be liable if it was their flat cart that damaged my car?" I wasn't racing through the parking lot looking for flat carts to hit!! At this point I told Ms. ** that I did not like where this conversation was going and felt I was already being set up for a denial. Ms. ** asked me to give her time to conduct her investigation and she would contact me with her findings.

    Approximately a week later, Ms. ** contacted me to inform me that based on her findings The Home Depot was not responsible for my damages and my claim was denied. She stated the incident was not caught on the store video, however there was a store employee ending their shift that witnessed the incident and gave a different version of the incident. I asked who and where this employee was at the time of the incident because when I was out in the parking lot looking for a store employee to report the incident to I could not find anyone and had to walk into the store. Three weeks later, a store employee "miraculously" appears and gives a statement that he/she witnessed the incident and Sedgwick denies the claim based on the "facts" currently available to them. Essentially, Home Depot's position is that my "facts" are bogus and the employees are true.

    I am curious to know what "exactly" this employee claims he/she saw? Where exactly was this employee when the incident occurred?? Why didn't the employee approach me (or Management) at the time of incident to state he/she witnessed the incident and provide a statement? Why am I not allowed to get a copy of the witnesses statement? I am not asking for his/her name! Why is the employee's version considered "facts" and mine "bogus?" Are Home Depot employees held to a higher standard than customers?

    In my opinion, Ms. ** did not do a thorough job in investigating the circumstances involving this matter and quickly made a bias decision towards Home Depot and their employee in order to avoid paying out a claim!! The Home Depot should take full responsibility for any vehicles damaged in their parking lot by any of their carts. If they cannot make customers responsible for returning carts to their designated areas, then they should have a parking attendant assigned to collect the carts.

    This seems like an act of acting together to deny a large population of vets that may not have the ability to get their cards on that silly little plastic card. At least three stores now actively mandate, Home Depot, Lowe's and Menards. I am pointing this out because These stores have made their fortunes on the backs of VETs and I have spent thousands of dollars in their places of business. NO LONGER.

I sent it to Home Depot and waited 6 months to be told it needed a new motor and that I would have to pay 300 dollars because they determined it was my fault even though it is under warranty. How is it my fault that the metallic gear cord breaks. I did nothing wrong. They finally call me back on August 5th and tell me that they called two weeks ago, one time mind you and spoke to my answer machine.

Not sure what to do as it has been 3 months without my new mower and everyone pleasant but cannot resolve getting the mower fixed and back.

    Home Depot offers one contractor for bathroom remodeling in the Chicago area. This contractor, Absolute Construction gave an outrageous bid of $8,520.00 to a 98 year old man and a 93 year old woman for a standard acrylic tub removal and a standard walk-in acrylic shower installation in its place. This 1 1/2 day job should have cost around $4,100 using the same materials as quoted. The contract did NOT have a breakdown of the costs of materials or labor and they required 50% down to be placed on an installation schedule of 6-8 weeks out. When Absolute Construction refused to adjust the contract to a more reasonable market price, they told me to take it up with Home Depot. On 7/08/2015 I talked with Corporate Customer Service and was promised a resolution.

    After several calls and undelivered promises, I called again on 8/03/2015. I was told their computer showed my ticket as closed. The ticket was re-opened and flagged correctly as an alleged overcharge and I was promised a call back by 8/05/2105 by a supervisor. I am still waiting for a call back. By offering only one contractor, Home Depot is liable and this contractor no doubt pays Home Depot huge fees to be that sole contractor, which means their overhead is high and they charge higher fees, but to take advantage of the elderly like this is just disgraceful and inexcusable. This couple should be reimbursed for this overcharge. Lowe's offers many contractors for this same location and remodeling project, giving the customer several choices & several opportunities to compare prices.

    Over the last several years, I have ordered products online, have them shipped to the nearest Home Depot location to me, and have had problems with my order being damaged upon pickup. It would be an asset to have someone at the pickup location peruse the order for damage before notifying me as to its availability for pickup. It would be even more effective as far as customer retention is concerned to take better care of product during storage, shipment, and receiving. I will be hard pressed ordering from Home Depot in the future because of this issue.

    Our LG refrigerator which we have only had 18 months started dropping in temperature and the ice maker stopped working. Fortunately, we purchased and additional 3 year extended warranty through Home Depot. When we contacted the warranty department, they had an appliance company all the way from Van Nuys contact us for an appointment to come out and fix it (or we thought). They came out and diagnosed the problem but did not have any parts with them to do any repairs. We told them it did not maintain temperature and I would have thought that it would be either a thermostat or compressor. So why didn't they come prepared to fix the problem??? They said that they had to order the parts and get approval from the insurance company to cover the cost, but they would call us and someone would be back in 5 to 7 days. That was 9 days ago and no call.

    When I called them I got an automated response stating that they would be here to fix the refrigerator on August 11th anytime from 8:00 to 5:00 p.m. That is 19 days from the date we contacted Home Depot about our problem. This is totally unacceptable! We have no refrigerator and we have visitors from out of town. We contracted with Home Depot to remodel our entire kitchen and we purchased all our appliances from them but I doubt seriously that I would recommend them to anyone because their repair service is terrible!!!

    I do not have the order number but they are very familiar with my name Marlene **, Rockaway Beach, OR 97136. Approximately 2 months ago I purchased vertical blinds from the Home Depot at the Warrenton, Oregon store. I gave the gal the exact measurements of the blinds that were 45 inches wide and 57 inches long for 5 windows. When I got the blinds home and was ready to put them up, the blinds were 58 inches long; 1 inch too long. I called and talked to the manager named Ben and he said he would send a girl out here to remeasure the windows, call and have the blinds recut and someone would come back out here with the blinds so I would not have to drive another hundred miles round trip.

    When the girl came out she had new blinds with her that she was going recut THEM ALL WITH A SCISSORS. Then realize that it would be take too long to cut them all individually. It's boiling down that I had to go up there, get the blinds, come home and put them up. After I put them up the mechanism that holds the blind broke in several areas so I returned all the blinds back. The blinds were super CHEAP. I then ordered custom blinds for all my rooms, had them mailed to me and I put them up. Then I found out the metal clip for the valance was not included with the blinds. 3 weeks ago I called and talked to Myre who said that she would call the store and make sure the clips would be sent to me to attach the valance. SHE PROMISED TO CALL BACK... WRONG!!!

    Since I did not receive the clips for 3 weeks I called the store, SPRINGS WINDOW FASHIONS in Pennsylvania today and talked to Mary and was advised that they had never received a call from the Home Depot rep, Myre requesting any such items... She said she would be glad to send the clips but I told her no because I was not going to take every blind down again to put his clip underneath the rail. I just want to file a complaint that the customer service in the blind department is the worst I have ever encountered over the past two months to finally get these blinds up.

A while later, I got another bill saying that I didn't pay the bill and that it was 70$! I asked why and they said it was because of a late fee. I said okay and I paid the bill. A while later, they said that I didn't pay it and had to pay a late fee around 100$. I already paid the bill. Why is there a late fee for a bill I already paid?

    Absolutely horrible experience - will not purchase even a screw from there ever again. What happened? Well, we went to the store in person to purchase a bunch of heavy things for a deck and coordinate delivery. Nothing was available for that week so we fixed a date 8 days later and are told it will arrive sometime before noon. So far so good.

    Delivery date comes and 2pm passes with no delivery so we call the 800 number on the bill to be told that delivery is behind schedule and we should get our stuff before 6pm and to expect a call 15mins before delivery. 6:03, call the 800 number again wondering why we wasted our entire day for a non-existent delivery. We are told that it should happen in the evening. 8:28, call them to cancel the order. The call center tells us that this needs to be dealt with the next day with the store directly.

    The next morning, call them at 8:30 to cancel and explain my entire story after which I am put on hold for 10 minutes. Overjoyed, having to endure kiddie-pop music for so long, I am answered again by a new person to whom I need to start the story over again. The lady takes my info and promises to call back. I finally get a call saying that I have to go back to the store to get a credit on my credit card since, in 2015, it is necessary to waste even more of my time for such a menial task as to refund my horrible experience.

    To make matters even more delightful, I am also informed that the nature of the issue is that some stock was misidentified as being on hand when I purchased it IN STORE and the manager decided arbitrarily to reschedule the delivery for the following weekend without the courtesy of a phone call to ensure someone might be there to receive it.

    It's unfortunate. The only positive experience I got from Home Depot was their call center who were professional and polite. For the rest, you are light-years behind anyone else where customer service is concerned and - get this - I have since purchased my materials at a local hardware place for only a few dollars more (I mean literally 6$ more on 650$).

    I am a contractor who spends over $100,000 at Home Depot. When a job is done I return items that are unused. Most of the time I have the receipts but sometimes I do not. I went to return a $23 plumbing valve that I had no receipt for. My return was denied. They said I had too many returns. Well goodbye Home Depot and hello Lowe's and Menards.

    Home Depot sells "Rheem" Hot Water Tanks, I did A LOT of research on this. They installed 3 days later and when we arrived home to see the tank it was an "American Water Heater" NOT a Rheem. Call and was told they could not get Rheem so they gave me another brand they found. Which, Rates a 1 star. Then American water heater tells me according to model number it is for natural gas and can not be converted to LP. My gas company came out immediately and turned it off. LOTS of confusion over this. Called 1-800 home depot and spoke to correct department and their manager was very very stern and very adamant about what HE SAYS IS CORRECT and basically tells me I'M LYING about EVERYTHING. Still ongoing battle.

    I am requesting a dictated copy of all our phone records to prove 1-800 home depot did not tell me they switched tanks and my propane company really did come out. Guess we have to find out who is telling the truth. Talking with customer service to see if they will change tanks, if not I go to TV station, Attorney General and consumer protection. This is unreal. WILL NEVER NEVER NEVER use HOME DEPOT AGAIN.

    I had Home Depot sales out to my home in March. They were here about an hour and measured my roof. The woman gave me a verbal estimate and told me if I sign today I get a discount. I told her I was not prepared to sign today because I had other roofers coming out to give estimates. She said she would be sending me a written estimate and would let me know when the next sales event occurred. I never heard from her. I called her a month later and she said there was a special going. I asked for the estimate to be sent to me. I didn't hear from her again.

    I called customer service to complain and they said they would send it. I never heard from them again. I called customer service again to complain. I called the saleswoman again who said the estimate fell out of the system and she would have to come measure it. We arranged to have her come on Monday. She was a no show. I called customer service again to complain. I heard from the Sales Manager who apologized and said he would handle this personally. We made an appointment for him to come to my house today at 9 a.m.

    At 9:26 I called him. He sounded like he just woke up and state, "Oh, I forgot. I'll be there in 10 minutes." It is now 9:45 and he has yet to show. I called the local Home Depot at 9:26 a.m. and asked to speak to the manager. The man who answered said the manager was at lunch. I said, "At lunch?" He replied snidely, "Well, he does get to take a lunch." I then asked for a regional manager. To this he replied, "I could talk to a manager." I questioned this. He said well, "an assistant manager, kinda." He put me on hold and after a minute I hung up. The Sales Manager showed up at 9:54 a.m.

    Home Depot, with a huge truck, made a delivery across the str. When leaving truck drove into a very narrow alley, backed up and trashed my side yard. Buried my cactus and destroyed a huckleberry bush (can't find a replacement). A drain pipe was chipped - I tested the pipe and water still flows (thank goodness). Question: Why would a huge truck try to use a narrow alley way? Had he just driven straight ahead, he would have been on 6th, a normal street.

    I bought a refrigerator in April of 2012 and I bought the "recommended" extended warranty by Home depot then, (NEVER EVER AGAIN). Last May I started having issues with my refrigerator when suddenly it stopped, both the freezer and the refrigerator. Called the home depot warranty, was on hold for some time, scheduled a maintenance person to show up. The maintenance guy showed up, ordered 3 parts to be replaced, we waited for 4 days until they showed up and the maintenance guy came to replace the parts. Two weeks later early June we had different issue, the water dispenser wouldn't work so as the ice machine. Called again, it took another week to get the maintenance guy to show up. He was not on time, and we had to call him to make sure he is coming or not. Finally showed up, fixed it supposedly.

    A week later, the ice machine stopped dispensing ice, and the freezer was not working properly, and the refrigerator would make a very very loud noise. Called Home depot warranty again complaining and requesting to find an alternative solution. It took them 3 weeks to schedule something. Called 10 times to remind and ask for help. Back in June 12th, one of the customer service managers told me, they will send another maintenance guy for one more time, and then if it still have issues then they will replace it. It took the maintenance guy two weeks to show, giving me times and dates and never showing up, until he finally did. Ordered another part, then he said that it's not his job to fix the ice maker.

    2 weeks later, refrigerator is not working or cooling properly, ice dispenser not working, and the loud noise is just unbearable. Called the home depot warranty again today. I hear the same thing about sending someone else and try to fix again! I couldn't believe it. Not to mention the person who I talked to from Home depot warranty was a customer service manager, but he was disrespectful and didn't care a single bit about my situation. His name was Eric, is it too much for people to do their jobs? I really hope there are some sort of actions to be taken toward this plan. I never had issues with Home Depot but def with their protection plan, and if they are continue working with them, then I will never get services from them.

    I should have known when they told me they don't do "measures" for free any more. They know they're going to be so outrageously high on labor costs, they won't get most of the jobs they estimate. Saleslady at HD told me cost of a midrange BR remodel could be VERY ROUGHLY figured at the cost of materials (fixtures, etc) X2 for labor. For us that would have been about $9,000. I knew we had a door to relocate and a small (4 foot) wall to build in, so added another 2-3K into my budget and figured it was doable. Paid the $100 for the "measure", got a LABOR ALONE estimate for what was presented as a 2, "maybe part of a third" week job of $25,000!

    It's a very small space; They couldn't possibly have more than 3 guys working in/on it at a time. Even at a full three weeks, that's $8,000/wk for labor, or $4,000/wk per guy. No materials. Just labor. $25,000. Seriously?! Obviously they will not be doing this job and obviously I'm out $100 for nothing, essentially because the sales rep at the store presented this in a very misleading way.

    I have been an extremely loyal customer for years..per my bills. My experience this last month have been EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING! We first ordered a S/O door through Home Depot when we realized our contractor's measurement was wrong. We cancelled within our 72 hour notice. A stock door was not available. However we were advised if we needed a door soon to order the door. First mistake, door placed on s/o (ordered 6/28/15). I began calling HD week of the 4th inquiring why this was put on s/o - told they didn't know why and it would be delivered to my address on 7/24/15. What?! Fine! About a week later I called to confirm a delivery day only to be told the door is manufactured in Ohio shipped to a distribution center then a delivery company.. So our door has been made gone to distribution and sent to Compton doors as of the 16th - should be delivered on 24th.

    On 23rd I still hadn't received a call from anyone. After numerous calls to HD... Coplay (manuf) they finally gave me Compton Doors (deliv co). Told our door may or may not be on the truck which was delivered to Compton doors ON THE 24 (Friday). We should get call next week because they don't deliver on the weekends. So Monday I call Compton. "We have your door but we need to confirm with HD because we have both doors and need to confirm what you get.." They will call me back. No callback... Tuesday run around calls. Now they were told by HD to send them both doors. Need to reconfirm and call me back.. I called HD Wed.. all was sorted. We should receive a call regarding delivery today. I immediately called Compton and scheduling lady is in meetings all day.. haha.

    Thursday my husband calls HD. They advised us Compton doesn't have our doors yet..WTF?? Pissed now. Call Compton and when we give them our name they send us to voicemail. Friday now July 31 after 3 calls sent to voicemail after giving our name. We were told once again by Compton doors they have our doors but will call us back for delivery date WHEN THEY ARE IN OUR AREA TO DO AN INSTALL. (We weren't having them install our door)... Still no call no door over a month later.. First mistake - if you can't drive off with it don't waste your time! I spend too much money doing this HUGE home renovation with Home Depot... WON'T BE REDOING MY KITCHEN, BATHROOMS OR ANYTHING ELSE! Business going elsewhere.

    I am a large contractor in Boston as well as own many multifamily buildings. I purchase a lot of materials at Home Depot and also do a small percentage of returns. Recently I went to return and was Refused, the reason being I have returned too many items without receipts. We purchase a lot and therefore return more than most. It appears because we are contractors and purchase and return a lot, we are penalized and "Locked out of Returning"!! It is impossible because of the volume we do to carry all of the receipts with us at all times. Things need to go to accounting for reconciliation, so receipts are not always in hand. Something is seriously wrong with this system! I run a business and take care of my customers that spend more $$. Home Depot on the other hand makes it difficult for large spenders and contractors.

    We used to be able to call a manager who could override. They would see us in the store and know we spend. This is No longer the case. We are now given a worthless 1800 number to a company called "The Retail Equation" which has Zero Power to correct the situation (not even sure why they exist?!) You call and they give you a PO box to send your complaint too. I know Comcast is the number 1 hated business in the US because of the way they treat their long term customers, raise rates on their best, longest term customers. Looks like Home Depot is working its way up the list. So good we have other options... Hello Lowe's!

    We bought new refrigerator range and dishwasher not counting a range hood we had to order online because Home Depot didn't carry 42-inch hood in store. We spent a lot of money on appliances and to have them installed which took 2 weeks to deliver. They were delivered on the date we were told but it was very simple to plug in the new range, the refrigerator they left in the middle of the floor because it was a little tight fit so we hooked that up ourselves. The dishwasher is still sitting in my kitchen after a week later because they said they didn't have the right connections which I already had an existing dishwasher in my kitchen island.

    We paid 69 dollars to have it installed and have made a couple visits to the store about the matter. Finally they refunded the 69 dollars and said we would have to call a plumber 100 dollars an hour just to hook up the dishwasher. Apparently they are not responsible for things not being done right for what you pay for because they have an outside contractor. Very unprofessional service, do not want to do anymore business with Home Depot. Not to mention the delivery guys could hardly speak English.

After 10 days they wanted to order the items although Home Depot 7 days ago had received the whole money. I was angry and cancelled the order because my house lease was over and we had to move out. It is funny they refund me but they said according to the policies my money will be returned to my account to 21 days (do you believe that? They make mistake and punish the customer). The assistant manager told me that disciplinary actions for all employees involved will be done. (I do not believe the management do that.)

Never happened... they just showed up (well, almost... they had the wrong address!). When they were delivered, the bottom of the carton of the dishwasher was soaking wet. The "delivery boys" made light of it and said the strangest thing: "They test these dishwashers at the factory so there may be some water inside it"...??? When I asked them to take the appliances out so I could inspect them (I was home alone) they said "no".

    I reported all of this the next day to LaTonya ** at the Resolution Center. She was so empathetic and really shocked at my delivery experience. She said Home Depot would probably come and get those appliances and bring new ones since the boxes were so wet. I was told I would have a resolution within 4-5 days. Well, the ugly truth is that there was NO resolution.

    When LaTonya finally called me, she basically accused me of lying about my experience and said Home Depot would NOT be coming to pick up those appliances and bring new ones because there was no proof that they were damaged. Seriously? Why would I lie about such a thing?? Who wants to have an experience like that? Home Depot did NOT hold those young delivery bozos accountable in any way, shape or form and, instead, I was made to feel as if everything was MY fault.

    I bought an Electrolux washer and the extended warranty - what a waste!!!!!! The absolute lack of customer service, care, concern, and/or moral compass by the Home Depot is absolutely shocking. They have been to my home 12 times to repair my washer, and still can't solve the problem. They will not credit my account, take back the defective unit, or show even an ounce of compassion regarding the debacle that is this unit. For anyone interested in an extended service contract - my STRONG suggestion is to say NO. It is so not worth the nonsense and hassle they put you through. Managers don't return calls. The phone operators are minions reading off a script. No one cares. If anyone with any authority at Home Depot wants to call me - please do so.

    This happened on July 14 at around 6.00 PM at the Home Depot store in Troy, MI (Coolidge road). I was there to request a custom exterior and storm door installation. The associate at the desk "Rob" was completely unhelpful and rude. No eye contact made as well. All I requested was a measurement scheduling for the doors. After some preliminary info he did not acknowledge my presence, did not even mention if I would be serviced simply chose to ignore me completely. He was happily joking around people there fully aware of my presence to be served. I waited patiently for about an hour. Never offered any help when I requested. I then approached the store manager and explained the situation. No apologies were offered nor any remedies, just a casual approach.

    I made a mistake of purchasing a Samsung refrigerator from Home Depot and it was to be delivered today, but I waited all day without any phone call. I called them only to find out that my order was canceled but I never received any email regarding the update on my order. Their reason was that my order was a fraud but they didn't think it wise to email me so I could at least verify that it wasn't, or refund my money which they took a week ago. I had to stay on phone with them for almost 2 hours because the first three people I wasted time talking to didn't know why they canceled my order without my consent or at least updating me on their decision. I finally got someone to process my refund only to hang up on me. HORRIBLE SERVICE!!!

    I terminated my employment with the Home Depot 12300 Chattanooga Plaza Midlothian, Va. 23112 on May 19, 2015. I was sent a letter that all monies owed to me would be paid within two pay periods after I leave. Well there has been four pay periods and I have contacted Denise in the Human Resources department to receive my final $709.00. My last contact was the third contact with the Home Depot.

Is there anything I can do to collect the money they owe me? Please reply as soon as possible. My wife and I are selling our home and could use the money for repairs. Thank you and have a nice day.

    Wow! Things certainly have changed at Home Depot. Now the clerks are knowledgeable and helpful. The shelves are stocked. Don't know what happened, must have been new management that kicked butt. Just recently I purchased an item that had a part missing. Phoned the store. They had someone deliver it the next day. That is what I call service. I only asked they drop it in the mail (it was a bolt) but here is the Home Depot guy knocking at the door the next day with the replacement. If I could give more stars, I would. Welcome back Home Depot/Monrovia as my top supplier.

    On July 9, 2015, I ordered a lawn mower as a gift for my father from Home Depot online. When I placed the order the billing & shipping address were the same which was correct. Two minutes later I received a confirmation email and the wrong address was taken from my address book which had not be used in 4 or 5 years. I immediately called the 800# for Home Depot to get the address corrected, I was told that this could not be done so I asked to cancel the order which initially I was told my order could be cancelled.

    After 45 minutes, I did not receive a confirmation email for my order cancellation so I called again then I was told the order could not be cancelled and when I receive my order I can return it to the store. Once again I explained the item is going to the wrong address and I would not know when it would arrive, etc. I spoke with a manager who was rude and said their policy supports the fact that the online order cannot be cancelled or the shipping address corrected.

    To date, Home Depot customer service continues to state that the order cannot be cancelled and I can return it when the item is delivered. This is a ridiculous situation and I feel everyone should be warned about the way the Home Depot does business. The technology available today should have made this entire situation easy to correct and deliver good customer service. Instead I am still dealing with an appalling situation.

    I brought my elderly parents in your store on University Pkwy. in College Station, TX. on Mother's Day weekend. They had a pipe burst & flooding requiring carpet & padding replaced throughout the home. They picked the items they wanted & an estimator came out. I received a copy of the receipt that seemed off so I forwarded it to my daughter to review. She spoke w/ store mgmt & the overcharges were resolved. My father even physically visited the store & that everything had been resolved. On Friday, July 3, the installation co. contact my parents to inform the carpet would be in on July 6 and installed July 8. My parents after unpacking all their furniture and moving boxes to hard floor areas, even blocking bathroom facilities knowing it would be temporary, find out Wednesday morning as they are waiting their arrival that Home Depot had not ordered the carpet until the day before!

    Apparently many things here went VERY wrong. From the time they were overcharged hundreds of dollars to the extreme lack of communication that has greatly inconvenienced my disabled parents. They suffered for days of muscle pains from packing and moving boxes and then having to move them again due to the delay. My father has severe Rheumatoid arthritis and recently had a total shoulder replacement. The carpet issue has been a fall/ trip hazard for both of them and my mother who requires constant oxygen is constantly getting the oxygen hose hung on the now packed boxes They did everything in their power with the information that was poorly communicated to them. This is not right! My elderly parents have put their trust in your company and have had very poor customer service in return.

    When you buy kitchen cabinets from Home Depot, they give you the option of using an installation contractor supplied by Home Depot, or hiring your own contractor. Of course when you choose the option of using Home Depot's contractor, you assume that Home Depot can vouch for the experience, workmanship, and cooperation of the contractor that they are recommending. NOT SO! The contractor I was stuck with was not at all cooperative. We had a very hard time getting this contractor to show up. The contractor kept giving us the excuse that he was busy with other customers, as though he expected that would make us be more patient and understanding.

    On the contrary, I don't like being told that my contractor has placed other customers ahead of me on his priority list. The contractor took about one month longer to complete the cabinet installation than Home Depot's projection. Suffice it to say that I appealed to Home Depot on numerous occasions to insist that their contractor show up at my house. So you can understand my shock and disbelief when I learned, after months of frustration with Home Depot's contractor, that Home Depot had paid the contractor 100% of the installation price before the contractor began work! This effectively cut me off at the knees with regard to having any amount of leverage to force the contractor to complete the job.

    I can't believe any reputable company would charge me a fee for a service by a third party and then would forward that fee to the third party before the work was even started!!! Are they out of their minds? Who conducts business with a contractor in this manner? It's bad enough that Home Depot misrepresents that you are getting a reliable contractor, but it is even worse to totally eliminate any leverage you might have had to force the contractor to perform the work!!! Well I am finished with Home Depot forever, and I am telling everyone I know to not be deceived by Home Depot's shoddy business practices. I will also file a complaint with the Maryland Attorney General's Office.

    Purchased a second order from Home Depot containing appliance again. Scheduled a delivery with GE delivery under Home Depot and was issued a 3PM to 7PM slot for delivery the next day on July 07, 2015 and when July 07th arrived I stayed home from work and waited. 5:20 PM arrive and a delivery company called (Home Delivery America Company of NJ) and stated "your delivery is running late, it will be there by 6:50 PM running an hour to hour and a half away". Confirmed it will be delivered July 07, 2015 no matter what because once on truck it will be delivered. 7:15PM came and no delivery, so I called GE delivery the number on back of order receipt to call about delivery status and stated "it's now half hour late". Called at approx. 7:40 PM to GE delivery again and told now one hour behind, and remember I am calling them.

    Now 8:15 PM comes along no delivery and Tiffany from GE delivery (requested supervisor at GE and Tiffany assigned) was transferred to talk to me and stated "It is still coming. Once on truck it must come to your home". I requested her to call driver or dispatch to track his last location with approx. time like midnight or 1:00 AM and Tiffany replied unable to do so and don't have any driver or delivery information but they are in charge of all deliveries. Very outdated company for Home Depot and poor communication skills with paying customers. 11:00 PM came and no delivery and not one call from Home Depot or GE deliveries and also notified Home Depot customer service line and promised by two supervisors there to get back to me with further details.

    Next morning I stayed home again thinking if on truck I should be first home delivery. Started calling GE deliveries at 8:00 AM and requested feedback on my deliver and still no calls from anyone concerning my delivery. Up to 1pm GE rep. Cordia stated shipping company has no answers on my delivery. They will try and reach driver on truck. Now take it, this is 24 hours. This appliance was loaded on truck and not one single update or return of my fifteen calls to Home Depot and GE deliveries.

    Now one online rep. from Home Depot stated I rescheduled for July 10, 2015 and that is a lie. I work that day and I'm already on two days off from work and then Joe took upon himself to cancel delivery and no call or apology from the supervisors from Home Depot I spoke with at Home Depot customer service Line. Also made two trips to store of purchase and they couldn't get answers the day of delivery and following day and saw no notes of a reschedule which was another way to get rid of my online complaint and squashed by Joe **.

    During this whole day of waiting I had to remove the doors on fridge at home so delivery men can move through doorway as instructed by sales woman at Home Depot and caused all the food to go bad. This whole incident has caused stress and anger I never want to occur again due to the unprofessional handling of a promised delivery. This was a lot of expense on my end and calling and running around that should of been done within the 24 hour period the item should of been delivered.

    Not one follow up call and a quick print out of cancellation by Joe ** and only person able to see on their computer that I rescheduled for July 10th, 2015. These I believe to say the fridge was never being delivered in first place as I witnessed another customer in same situation and told by employees at Home Depot the delivery system is poor and many complaints. Now still no feedback or resolution or apology is poor service of Home Depot management. I have phone proof and names of all employees I have spoken to on the 24 hour period in addition to emails and online posts. This is a great loss on my end and a loss of a customer for Home Depot. Will submit any other documents or time and calls if needed.

    I wish I had visited this site before purchasing my Hampton Bay Fall River Patio furniture from Home Depot. I purchased this set less than two years ago, covered it during the winter. And in spite of its "made of heavy duty rust-resistant metal", this set looks 15 years old. The local store had no interest in helping and told me to call Hampton Bay.. Hampton Bay directs you back to Home Depot. After numerous, numerous calls and emails back and forth with Home Depot support in Atlanta, I was told that the warranty doesn't cover rust and even if it did I was past the 12 months.

    I babied this set and took great care of it. After refusing to go away, Home Depot offered me a $100.00 gift card toward the replacement of the $700.00 set. This did not sit well with me. So with a new snowblower and a kitchen remodel in my budget for this year, I'm not sure who will get that business yet, but I'm certain who won't. This was a very bad customer experience.

Meanwhile the fire department shows up, the inspector waited, Phil got back and lo and behold... they gave him back the same ones I'd just sent back! Make a long story short, the house didn't meet specifications required by the fire department, and it failed inspection. Meaning escrow didn't close.

    The absolute WORST home depot I have ever dealt with. I have lived in Westbury for almost 20 years going to the Raceway Home Depot, but my husband and I purchased a home in East Meadow about a year ago close to this location. We completely gutted our home and decided for one of our final items we would order through this location, a simple door with an all glass window and built in blind. Well, first off the door was late to begin with and when I was calling the store to get a hold of someone to help me and give me an answer they only have ONE PERSON who deals with special orders of doors and windows and when he isn't in, there is no one to pick up the slack. Not even the managers are of any help. I then have a pneumonia and in frustration, a door 2 weeks late, I go into the store and raise hell because I can't get any help on the phone and I end up leaving with no resolution.

    FF to the following weekend. I rent a truck with my husband to pick up the above mentioned door and as we are checking out with it, I notice something is wrong with the blind. I show the store manager and the girl checking us out, but they insist, once the door is installed and standing upright the blind will straighten itself out and they pushed out the store with the defective door. Now I take it home, before installation, my contractor straightens out the blinds and shows me the bend in the blind. I call the store, and guess what, the guy who deals with special orders NOT THERE so I had to wait until Monday.

    We are now going on a month and a half and I still do not have my replacement door. The store calls my husband and tells him to come and pick up the replacement... WHAT!? Mind you, my best friend also is currently battling this store because they keep losing her carpet order AND measurements!! Not once, not twice, BUT THREE TIMES!!! I wanted to file with the BBB, but unfortunately they aren't accredited. STAY AWAY FROM THIS STORE AT ALL COSTS. I HAVE BEEN WAITING ON A CALL FROM THE ONE PERSON WHO HANDLES SPECIAL ORDERS FOR THREE DAYS AND NOTHING SO FAR!!! I will say they were very quick to give me discounts, but this still does not amount to the money I lost paying contractors for lost time in addition to the amount of time this has taken.

I tell the clerk (Doris) standing there the receipt did not print. She goes on her register and prints a strange receipt that says "NOT VALID FOR RETURNS." I said, "No, I need a receipt in case I need to return them." She says the register cannot reprint receipts. TOTAL BS! She handwrites on the strange receipt with no barcodes and little info that returns are okay even though it says otherwise.

    I ask for a manager and Doris says no, they cannot reprint receipts either. I say I still want to talk with one. She looks across the floor and points to a lady and says she's the manager. I go chase down this lady and ask her if she is the manager. She says no. I told her rude Doris says you are. F it too many games. Just going to return them right now before I even leave the store. I go to return counter and start to return when the phone rings. Lady helping me picks up and was obviously talking about me and this return. She was told by security not to return it. I ask for security and she says they will not come talk to you. Blood pressure through the roof now and all this time later.

    I stand and block the register until a manager shows up. Brian shows up and says he just got there and does not what happened, but apologizes and says he will do the return. But why I am being treated like this? I purchase something and need a real receipt and am entitled to that. I was told they don't reprint receipts (but it was out of paper and did not print), then lied to about who was manager, then blocked from returning plants by security. Treated like a criminal over $50 in plants!

    We bought a refrigerator from Home Depot exactly 5 yrs and 4 days ago. We bought the extended warranty to cover 4 additional years on the 1 yr warranty. When we came home from vacation our refrigerator had stopped working and we had a refrigerator and freezer full of spoiled food. We checked our paperwork and saw our extended warranty ran out exactly 4 days ago while we were on vacation. Since the food had time to spoil and mold it's apparent the refrigerator had been broken for at least 4 days if not longer.

    We called the warranty phone number and told them our refrigerator broke while we were on vacation and the woman said it didn't matter when it broke because we had to call before the warranty expired. My husband told her we were on vacation and didn't know it was broken until we got home and found the spoiled food and he pointed out that the food was spoiled so it likely broke prior to the warranty expiration date. She then said, "When your refrigerator broke really doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is that you call us on or before the last day of your warranty. Your warranty has expired and your refrigerator is not covered."

    So we called the store where we bought it and asked if they could help and they told us, "Sorry, we don't have anything to do with those warranties. We just sell them." If Home Depot won't stand behind the warranty they sell they shouldn't sell it at all. Beware people, don't buy any Home Depot appliance warranty. We spend several thousand dollars a year at Home Depot but after this incident we are now taking all of our business to Lowe's.

    INCOMPETENT INSTALLERS DAMAGED MY HOME, LIED AND MESSED UP THE JOB AND HD WON'T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEM. Ordered a very large amount of carpet to be installed by HD installers. We were told that we needed to order a significant amount of additional carpet because there was a "pattern match" on the carpet and they needed extra to make sure that the seams weren't visible. After 6.5 hours of installation, the installers left and we noticed that 5 out of the 6 seams were NOT done well. One was so bad that there were threads sticking out of the seam. In addition, they had knocked two holes in our walls that now needed to be repaired. Upon their inspection, they said that they needed to call HD to make sure that they could get additional carpet from the same dye lot to repair the areas needed to be redone.

    A week later, they showed up to repair their mistakes. One of the seams was in a closet so we weren't all that concerned about that one. They said that they had ordered extra materials but strangely never brought it into the house. (Seems a bit odd that they would go through the trouble of checking on dye lots and such to never even bother bringing it into the house.... Perhaps they had another job to use it on.... the floors in their homes probably look incredible.) They fixed 2 seams to the point that you can't see the seams at all but when they went to fix the really bad one, they merely stretched the carpet a bit and hardly matched the pattern. When I said to them that the seam was still clearly visible, the installer said that I was wrong and this is how it's supposed to look.

    At this point, It had been 3/5 hours and I was eager to get to the hospital where my mother had just had surgery the day before and didn't have the patience to argue with someone who clearly wasn't going to admit any fault. I mentioned the holes in the walls which he completely dismissed, handed me a piece of paper to sign and was very obviously finished with me and the job. The following day, when I had more time to look at the job done, I noticed that not only had they knocked holes in my wall but they had created a gash around every wall's baseboard like they had cut the carpet right against the walls (a direct quote from ** the Toms River store co-manager). So now I have 2 holes in my walls, 3 mismatched seams, and a gash running all around my entire 2nd floor baseboards.

    When talking to HD customer care, they acted very concerned and offered to have a store manager and installation manager come look at the issues. **, one of the store managers showed up and was very pleasant. Little did I know that she was being sweet to my face while standing in my home but she would literally screw me in the end. ** and her installation manager took photos and acknowledged that things were clearly not done correctly. She made mention multiple times about how the company absolutely would take care of these issues and I shouldn't worry. HA! The following day, I received a call from ** stating that HD would reimburse me $450 for my trouble. Done, that's it.... no other offer.

    After telling her that this was absolutely unacceptable, she went to her district manager and came back to me with an offer of $500 compensation (mind you the entire job was almost $3700). I was offered either this compensation or I could have the same incompetent, lying installation crew back in my house to try to fix all of their mistakes/damage. I told her that that was not an option because I had no trust for these people and would accept 1/3 of the cost to hire someone to do all of the repairs myself and to make up for the colossal amount of time that I had wasted thus far. At this point, HD customer care got involved and contacted the district manager on my behalf. She came back with an offer of $600 to just forget about all of the issues and to accept the mistakes and damage done to my home or forgo the compensation and have the same installation company come out again to repair the damage to my home.

    At this point (now ** on conference call with us) ** informed me that the installation company did not believe that they could actually repair the seams and that any attempt would, in fact, make it worse. Again, I told her that this was unacceptable because that meant that we would be barely compensated for something that would never be done correctly. But that's it.... HD refuses to take responsibility for their mistakes and we just have to live with it. SHAME ON YOU HOME DEPOT, DISTRICT MANAGER ** AND STORE CO-MANAGER **!!

Not at any time has Home Depot reached out to their consumers or promoted new security measures. Recently, after a return transaction, their employee retained my driver's license. I should have doubled check, however, went on my way to continue shopping at the store.

    There was never any attempt to page me to return to customer service, to maybe even pursue me on foot after leaving the counter. After numerous times contacting them, they continued to deny they had my driver's license. They insisted I must have lost my license and to check my purse, vehicle, etc. ONLY upon my return to the store to directly confront the employees at the customer service desk, upon threat of calling police did they "magically" find my license.

    Long story short: Home Depot's new windows installations ruined our expensive shutters and though they admitted their mistake and promised us new shutters, they've been evading their responsibilities for 1.5 months, giving us the run-around, stalling. Here's what happened: About 6 weeks ago, we got new windows installed in one of our bedrooms from Home Depot. According to the contract, we were supposed to remove the plantation/California shutters and then re-install the shutters ourselves after the new windows were installed. But we are not able to re-install these shutters, according to the contract, because the new window frame does not fit.

    Unfortunately, the initial sales representative who first came to our house to take measurements and draw up the contract FORGOT to take the measurements of the inside of the window frames, so we were no longer able to re-install the shutters because they no longer fit within the window frame. Five weeks ago, the regional sales manager visited our home and confirmed that it was Home Depot's fault. He measured the frame and PROMISED us new shutters (exactly like the ones we had before) with new measurements, but he hasn't delivered. Every time I call him he tells me that he'll call this person and that person to send the new shutters, but nothing happens. Finally, yesterday, he said that we were very patient but that he did everything he could; we should escalate the complaint.

    We've been with new windows for 1.5 months, but our beautiful, expensive shutters (one of the best features of the house) which were in perfect condition, can no longer fit. If we were to replace them ourselves, it would cost us around 900.00 CAD. It would cost Home Depot only half the amount because their factories are the same ones that produce these same shutters. My husband and I regret buying new windows from Home Depot. We feel we are being punished for trusting them. They admitted their mistake. They promised a resolution. They are now giving us the run-around to evade responsibility. This was the worst experience we have ever had as customers. I doubt American customers would be treated this way.

    We just purchased a refrigerator from Home Depot brand new and spent 2700 for the refrigerator and 250 for the 5 year protection plan. Since we purchased in March, the refrigerator has stopped working completely twice and all the food has been ruined. We call for this protection plan and it takes them 2 weeks to come and check it out, another week to order a part and then after 1 month it's broken again. We thought the refrigerator was brand new but are thinking it might be refurbished and Home Depot is charging full price. The GE service company is awful and so is Home Depot when we called for help. I will never purchase anything from Home Depot or a GE product again. This is my first and last GE product and Lowes will be my new home store.

    I bought a new refrigerator in my local store on a Monday. I had reviewed my choices online and only wanted to go see in person to make sure I was happy with the one I decided on. I had seen the option to buy online and have it delivered and installed for free. I asked the associate if there was any benefit for me to buy it from him, in store, versus going home and buying online. He checked and said that I could get it one day earlier by buying in store. The price was going to be the same either way, and delivery/installation is free on all appliances over $399 (this refrigerator was almost $1300). So I paid for it in full on the Monday and was given a ticket and told that the delivery people would call me Wednesday night to give me a 3 hour appointment window for Thursday (my scheduled delivery day).

    I never heard from anyone Wednesday night. I ended up having to keep my son home from Mother's Day Out that day (even though I had to pay for it even if he wasn't there) because I hadn't heard when my appointment window was and I was worried they might say they were coming between 1 and 3 or 2 and 4 or something like that, and my son has to be picked up exactly at 2:30 -- there's no wiggle room. I also had to reschedule 6 hours of work that day from staying home all day trying to get the issue straightened out.

    Around 1 pm on Thursday (the day my fridge was supposed to delivered) I called the store and was transferred to the appliance department. An associate said he didn't see me on the schedule and offered to call the delivery company (as I came to find out, it was a company they contracted with to do their deliveries). He didn't put me on hold so I could hear him talking to them. He came back on and said there was a "mix up" with the delivery people and they didn't pick my fridge up that morning, so it wasn't on the truck, and therefore they couldn't bring it until the next day. I told them that was unacceptable. I had been completely without a refrigerator since Monday and couldn't wait one more day for them to deliver. I was told my refrigerator was at the warehouse in Nashville, where I live. It's not like it got left in Atlanta or somewhere.

    So I told the man in the appliance department that they better do something to get my fridge to me that day. I had already missed 1/2 day of work and wasted a whole day's tuition money on my son's daycare that day to stay home and wait for a fridge that wasn't coming. He transferred me to an assistant manager up front, named **. It was one of those instances where she had already decided before she picked the phone up that she wasn't going to help me. I briefly explained the problem and also included the information that I had 3 coolers full of breast milk I had frozen for my son that would have to be thrown away if I didn't get my fridge that day. You can't buy breast milk -- that's not replaceable. It's not like having to throw out my ketchup and mustard because of their screw up.

    So she just keeps saying "Ma'am there's nothing I can do. Ma'am there's nothing I can do" repeatedly. She was talking OVER me just saying the same thing. Finally, she handed the phone to someone else, didn't cover the mouthpiece, didn't put me on hold, I very clearly heard her say "Here, THIS ** won't listen to me." Yes, you can imagine how infuriated I was. So I got ** who was supposedly a manager. We went through the whole thing, and although he did offer to have a dorm fridge sent to my house that day (Thursday) since my fridge "couldn't" be delivered until Friday. But that wouldn't have helped me because the breast milk all needed to stay frozen, not just chilled, and the freezer section of those small refrigerators barely holds two small ice trays, whereas I had 3 full size coolers full of nothing but milk and ice.

    He wasn't outright rude as ** was, but he kept saying there was nothing he could do. He explained the delivery people weren't Home Depot employees. It was a delivery company that Home Depot contracted with. I explained that who they choose to delegate work to wasn't my problem. He said "Ma'am, I can call them, but I'm telling you right now, I can't MAKE them do anything -- we don't pay them, they aren't our employees." So I pointed out "Well, I *DID* pay Home Depot, over $1300 for this refrigerator, so I SHOULD be able to make you do something about this mistake." Home Depot rents delivery trucks from this particular location. I suggested they send one of their rental trucks to the warehouse in town where my fridge was, and then have it brought to my house. He says they can't do that, because there aren't any trucks. So I tell him to call U-Haul or another rental company.

    This is THEIR MISTAKE, they should fix it. I shouldn't have to be suggesting ways they can make this right. Whatever "mix up" happened between Home Depot and the delivery company has nothing to do with me. I paid Home Depot over $1300 for a refrigerator, I expect them to GET ME MY FRIDGE THE DAY THEY PROMISED. It wasn't in another city or another state. It was less than 15 miles from their store and from my house. But he kept insisting there was NOTHING he could do because he had no power/control over the delivery people. So he said he'd call them and call me back, which he did in about 30 mins. He said they would deliver it on FRIDAY, not Thursday as promised. No mention of making things right or any true apologies.

    Everyone at Home Depot's mantra was "it's the delivery people, not us, we can't do anything, it's not our fault." And I'm sorry, that's unacceptable. So I got a phone call from the delivery company just after 7 am on Friday morning and was told they would be here in 30 mins. Which they were. But I had to wake my baby up early so that he wasn't woken up by an appliance being delivered. The delivery people who came Friday were very nice and extremely efficient. They obviously had no idea about the issue from the day before. It seems like a pretty easy way for Home Depot to offer "Free Delivery and Installation" and then proceed to do NOTHING to make sure that the delivery schedule is kept. After all, they didn't "charge" you for delivery/installation so you can't even demand your money back for that because they didn't keep to the delivery date that was agreed upon.

    I am very lucky that I'm a freelance employee and only lost money from missing work that day. I can only imagine if I had worked for a large company and had to call in and say I was missing work because of some appliance delivery people -- I could easily have lost my job. As it is, I missed out on almost an entire day's income (not to mention was then behind for several days trying to play catch up), plus the money paid to my son's daycare even though I had to keep him home so I wouldn't miss the delivery people that were NEVER coming that day anyway. Appliances are one of the largest and most expensive purchases that homeowners have to make, and making sure that those costly items are delivered on time should be one of Home Depot's highest priorities.

    I posted something about this on Facebook that day and several people who were former employees of Home Depot commented saying that they used to have to eat the charge to rent trucks ALL the time to get a customer's appliance to them because of some miscommunication between the store and the delivery people. But I was told repeatedly that it couldn't be done.

    Also, I had to throw away 90% of the frozen breast milk I had stored for my son. That's something that can't have a price put on it. It's called "liquid gold" for a reason. I can't just magically make more or run down to Wal-Mart and stock back up. That is nutrition and antibodies and sustenance that can't be replaced, and my son can't be given anything else to make up for it. I don't expect a male store manager to have much sympathy for the dozens of hours of work that went into pumping and storing that milk so my son would have the best nutrition available to him for as long as he wanted. But even the female store manager didn't care at all. She kept saying over and over "Ma'am, there's nothing I can do" until she handed me off to someone else while clearly saying "THIS **" in reference to me.

    I don't know when it became acceptable for a company to promise something IN WRITING (in this case, my delivery date) and then fail to do anything or exert any effort at all in order to keep their promise, or make right their mistake. Needless to say, I will never buy anything that costly from Home Depot ever again, and my Facebook post I made originally has been shared dozens of times already so people know that Home Depot is not the place to buy appliances unless you don't mind sitting around for days on end and are willing to be satisfied that they showed up at all. That is not acceptable to me. I had a delivery date in writing, I scheduled my work, my son's life, and our precious reserve of breast milk around having our new refrigerator installed before the end of the day Thursday.

    It did come Friday morning, but that didn't save most of my son's milk, and no one from Home Depot made any effort to get it to me on the day that was scheduled. They acted as though I should be grateful it was delivered to me "only" one day after the scheduled delivery date. I understand there are sometimes errors in communication, and the more people/companies involved, the larger the margin for error is. But since I paid Home Depot, I should have had some recourse against them to get some sort of partial refund since they inconvenienced me, my employer, my son, and resulted in the waste of months worth of stored breast milk, all because of some company they contract with that I knew nothing about. I didn't have the option to call the delivery people myself or anything like that.

    If I pay Home Depot for something, and they choose to delegate part or all of that to another company by subcontracting with them, then any mistakes are between Home Depot and the people they hired. It should NEVER be the customer's problem and as a person who spent well over a thousand dollars in their store, I feel they should have done whatever it took to make sure my appliance was delivered on the day they promised. Instead they did NOTHING to remedy the situation except to call and make sure it would be delivered one day late. That's not an acceptable solution or reaction.

    Ensuring that my delivery is ONLY one day late is not adequate customer care. That's not problem resolution. But that's all I got. No follow up call to make sure everything was okay. Certainly no apology. I've not ever had such a horrible experience with a company essentially saying "too bad, sucks to be you" about something that was THEIR mistake, when they had over $1300 of my money. This wasn't like Comcast missing an appointment to put in a $40 cable outlet.

    My whole family was severely inconvenienced, we were damaged financially due to me missing work and having to pay tuition for my son when I couldn't take him to school that day and risk missing my WRITTEN appointment window, and of course the loss of the breast milk that can't be replaced at any cost. Whatever happened to accountability? This was a horrible experience and I hope just one person will read this and take my suggestion to buy their next appliance ANYWHERE but Home Depot, even if it costs a bit more. You'll be better off in the long run. "Free" Delivery and Installation isn't a perk if it's delivery at their whim, and they do nothing to try and keep to the schedule you were promised in writing.

    I highly suggest that you research Home depot Customer services before you use them. The internal structure of the company with customer services needs work. The lack of communication and professionalism is a problem. I hired them to install tile in my bathroom. Because there were two different roles (floor and shower) there were two different people that needed to come out and measure my bathroom. This wasn't known by the sales person so my order was delayed and I had to take off work twice. When the bathroom was measured I was told I could go to any home depot to pay for it. When I went to a different store they couldn't find my order and it took one hour for them to recreate.

    I ended having to pay all of the order before the installation which isn't normal in home repairs. You usually pay a portion up front and then the remainder when you are satisfied with the work. Trying to call and schedule the work was a nightmare Because of the lack of communication in the company. The final straw was when the original sales person kept calling me to see if I wanted to do the work when I had already paid for the work and scheduled it. She got upset with me for paying the order at a different store then told me she would need to cancel the work.

    This is nothing new. It has happened to me more than once, so I am not surprised. The odds are when a customer returns an item in the box that has a defect, don't be surprised to find the same item back on the shelf the next day. My most recent experience is with a sprinkler. I bought two. I didn't know the product was defective until it didn't work and I opened the second box and realized the first sprinkler had different packing. Do not buy products from Home Depot if the box is not sealed or has any indication it has been tampered with. I wonder how many defective products never get returned after the customer gets it home and finds out it's broken? The odds must be in their favor or they would change their policy.

    I purchased online 6 Jorgensen clamps for my dad for Father's Day. I paid for expedited shipping. When the box arrived it was crushed, taped up with two different colored tape, and had a slit cut down one corner from top to bottom. Not to mention that the square shaped box is not the correct packaging for these particular clamps or clamps in general anyway. When my father opened the box there was only one 2"x12" jorgensen clamp. Not 6 that I had purchased.

    I called Home Depot's customer service number. The woman I spoke with was sincere and helpful. I thought. She apparently fell asleep halfway through our conversation because she put through the reimbursement for the extra shipping I had paid, but not for the cost of the clamps. I was told it would take 3-4 days to be reimbursed.

    In the meantime I called my dad and had him take the box, the paperwork that came with it, and the one clamp he had received to his local Home Depot store in Columbia, MO. He spoke to a manager there who took everything with no problem and no excuses. He told my dad he could either purchase another 5 jorgensen clamps out of pocket and I could reimburse him later that week or he could wait for me to be reimbursed first then come back in. He took option one. I told him that I would send him the money as soon as I was reimbursed. Problem is I still haven't been reimbursed.

    I spoke to Home Depot online support again this morning. I was told by someone else that the first person never put in to reimburse me for the $65 plus that I had paid for the clamps. Funny how no one caught it and no one notified me or even made an attempt to let me know. Where is their responsibility? The Home Depot headquarters is fewer than 5 miles from my house in Smyrna, GA. I think I will pay them a visit. I received no extra anything for their screw up and my dad's disappointment on opening his gift on father's day. I won't be purchasing online products from Home Depot in future.

    Btw, the woman I spoke to the first time I called, also told me that that particular clamp is not sold in store but my dad found it sitting right there on the shelf at his local Home Depot store!! Good grief!! Doesn't anyone know how to do their job anymore?

    I ordered a toilet seat that is only available online with Home Depot. It fell $6 short of the free shipping threshold, so I added a $7 item to my order. Why pay them $6 for shipping when I can an add'l item for roughly the same expenditure? As I tried to complete my order, the $7 item was not included in the shipping of the toilet seat. The site tried to schedule an in store pickup and neither the site nor a customer service rep could override the "system". Very poor customer service. There was no sense in "forcing" me to go to the store when I was already paying to have another item shipped to me. The way to punish them was to cancel the order and buy from another source...that new source was Amazon, who sold it to me for the same price and shipped it 2-day express at no add'l cost.

The employee at HD filled his name in as purchaser instead of my husband's. After many attempts my husband gave up. I called the manager he said everything would be expedited. My husband went back to ask specifically for ** because he would have everything ready. That did not happen. I was willing to give them one more chance so on Friday morning at 11 am I went to HD. They told me my husband had the title, which he did not. Then they finally found it but put whiteout on the title.

    After spending all day, I was nearly finished at the motor vehicle dept and was told the title was not useable, that HD whited out the employee's name and they would have to apply for a new one. In all I spent 4 1/2 hours while my husband the previous day did too! The people I dealt with surprisingly went home before 3pm. One man's name was ** and the other was **. Then they tried to get me to buy a smaller Trailer! A man came over to try to get my reaction on his cell phone probably to say, "See, this lady is awful." I'm doing remodeling and I will never set foot in the Dunkirk HD again! The sales girl looked like she was sorry they were so incompetent. Wasted two Days and didn't even get a Trailer.

    We are incredibly frustrated with the entire purchase experience from Home Depot. We sat at the custom order desk for over an hour to attempt completing the order for the Fall River 7-piece set with bare cushions, gray cushion covers (sent separately), lumbar pillows and a matching umbrella. I should also mention that we wanted to pay a portion in cash but were told we could not do this for an online order (even though we were paying in the store, not ordering from home), so we had to buy a gift card (which we are now stuck with - read on). The computer crashed so everything had to be re-entered. It crashed again and we were told that they weren't sure the order went through so we would have to check online the following day. It, of course, did NOT go through, so we completed the entire process again from home.

    When the carrier (Seko) updated the shipping status, I thought we would receive it within a reasonable amount of time. Throughout the course of 9 days, the status did not update at all. I attempted to contact them on multiple occasions, each time sitting on hold for an average of 15 minutes, but no one ever answered. I was able to do an online chat with them a couple of times but the information I was given was useless ("uh, it looks like it's in your state" - wow!). At the 9-day mark, I contacted Home Depot directly and was told that I would be contacted by someone within 24 hours. I never received that call (5 days have since passed). I had hoped that at least Home Depot would attempt to make this right, but I was mistaken. It finally arrived yesterday and, as soon as I saw the dilapidated boxes in my driveway, a little voice in my head said "take pictures!".

    The brilliant, professional drivers from Seko clearly did not care one iota and just dumped off the boxes that were so clearly damaged. In fact, the box that held the table was opened and you could see right inside that the corner protectors were off and the table was horribly damaged. It was evident that a forklift either rammed into its end or it was dropped from very high up in the warehouse. Just for kicks, I unloaded the other box, fully aware that its contents would be in a similar state. Although not as bad as the table, several of the chairs had one leg that was bent inward AND there were several zip ties at the bottom of the box, revealing that someone else had already gotten into the box and returned it. Home Depot shamelessly released a damaged product for resale.

    When I called Home Depot customer service, I was told that they have received lots of complaints about Seko and so I have to wonder why they don't respect their customers enough to have addressed these issues sooner. A quick look at the reviews for random patio sets proves that an unacceptable number of damaged boxes are being left at Home Depot customers' doorsteps, clearly without a care. Shame on you, Home Depot. They "graciously" (sarcasm intended) offered to give me 10% off on another set, but no more than 10%. Quite honestly, this was just insulting. No, thank you. At this point, having zero confidence that Seko would accurately enter the return into their system, and wanting to ensure that I was really able to get a refund, I said I would return it myself to my local Home Depot. My husband and I had to remove the back seats from our minivan and schlep these "quality" products back to the store.

    Once there, I spent over an hour and a half at the counter while they attempted to help make this right. Although the people at my local store were sympathetic, I had hoped they would at least offer a discount (more than 10%) but there was absolutely no mention of this. I'm assuming they're seeing a lot of this and simply can't afford to offer discounts to everyone affected. Now we have to wait for them to process a return, which I can only hope will be done correctly, if at all... AND the money we paid in cash will be put back onto a gift card so I have to spend it back into the store. I'm guessing you can tell that this is the last thing I am in the mood to do right now. For now, I'll just have to STAND on my new deck (more sarcasm).

    I purchased a dishwasher and scheduled the delivery and installation. I got a call the day before the day of the delivery and another call telling me that the delivery would be done in 30 minutes. However the delivery man never showed up. I called to find out what happened and was told that the delivery man had come and was unable to contact me on the phone (which is not true, because I was all the time at home waiting for the call). The delivery company did not apologize for the mistake of the delivery man and was unwilling to make the slightest effort to improve the situation.

    The persons I contacted in Home Depot for the purchase and the complaint were very professional and helpful. The problem is that the delivery is not done by Home Depot but by GE who is doing a very lousy job. GE is not adequately monitoring the delivery people and do not make any efforts to improve the services they are supposed to provide. The result is the dissatisfaction of customers due to the bad quality of the delivery services and an insult to the employees of Home Depot whose good quality work is annihilated by the delivery services,

    I am still waiting for my dishwasher and do not know when it will be delivered and installed, I have a date but as GE does not deliver them when scheduled, I have no reason to believe the schedule. I am sorry for the people of Home Depot, but if they use incompetent delivery companies, I will have to buy my appliances somewhere else.

    My advice to other customers: be aware of the incompetence of the delivery companies used by Home Depot. Home Depot has no control over the delivery, have no way of enforcing the delivery schedule, and complaints regarding delivery are simply ignored. If you believe you will get your appliances when promised, you are in for a great surprise.

The Home Depot customer service is horrifying. Same as other people said, the amount the time I have taken off work to wait on the service call I could have purchased a new refrigerator. I wonder, do we have a law to protect the consumers against this kind of issues? It is so frustrating and stressful to try to get this refrigerator fixed. This is completely unacceptable. The refrigerator is completely dead. Now I have been without a refrigerator for 2 months.

    I placed a call into Home Depot's 800 number to set up an appointment for a roofing job. I gave them all the information they needed and information I thought to be more than they needed, such as my income, and I never received a call back. I was only looking for an estimate at this stage. I then called a second time and a third time for a Home Depot's sales rep who finally came to the house. After the home visit I never heard back with an estimate. After several more calls to the store and leaving a message directly to the Sales Manager with a complaint of no one getting back to me, I still haven't received a call back from that person in charge. This has gone on now for several months. I started with them in March and it is now the middle of June. Terrible Customer Service.

    We found the BBQ we were looking for on the floor and tried to find it on the shelves for purchase. Asked staff. Everyone just sent us to someone else. After about an hour of asking and waiting and looking we rolled the floor model to the cash and got charged an extra $50 because it was assembled. We left it there and went to LOWES.

    Today I left the store, as usual, regretting that I had not gone on to Lowe's. I have lived 5 miles from the Highland store for 17 years and only go there if I really need to. The staff seldom seems informed about things in their department and today while checking out a customer the lady had to answer the phone 4 times. After waiting in line when she had to go about 15 steps away from her register to scan lumber that was parked too far away and answer the phone and did not know what I brought to check out (1 4x8 sheet of 3/4 treated ply) I gave up and walked out... And why anyone in his right mind would invest in H D? I am surprised that H D is still in business!!!

    I charged $833.61 in April at the Fort Walton Florida Home Depot. I called the Manager at the HD in Marysville, Ohio to see if they would call and get those charges together for a 6 month promotional. She said she was able to do that. Looking at my account today I find that was not true. I called and was told because I received a 5% discount on those items they would not honor a 6 month deferred promotional. I should have been told this in the first place. I would have taken all of these items back and purchased them together without the 5% and got an even longer than 6 month promotion. I don't take kindly to being lied to and therefore will be taking most of my business elsewhere. Any canned responses from you will not be accepted and will just reinforce where my business will go.

    I filed a complaint through their website and below is their response: The time you took to let us know that we did not meet your expectations is appreciated. For this, we sincerely apologize and hope that you will continue to make us your choice for quality and value. Your business and feedback are very important to us and we will continue to improve our service to you. We are sorry to hear that you are thinking about closing your account. However, to accomplish this, you would simply need to submit an online message requesting that your account be closed. We agree the service you received falls short of both our standards and the service you deserve as our customer. We hope to serve you better in the future.

    I responded back with the following: Did you read what I stated about sending me a canned response? What is this TOO BAD, SO SAD response? I have made a copy of my complaint and your response. We'll see what the INTERNET WORLD thinks about my issue. I have spent tens of thousands of dollars at Home Depot and Lowe's and was aware that Home Depot is hardcore and even has dictated inferior design changes to its suppliers, but obviously no one ever reads customer complaints.

    My ice maker on my LG side by side refrigerator freezer stopped working in early June, 2015. I contacted Home Depot through their website and used my warranty protection plan. The third party company they have in this area is A&E. They said they couldn't get out until June 17, 2015 between the hours of noon and 5 pm. The technician showed up around 2 pm, stayed for about 10 minutes, and informed me he didn't have the part. Furthermore, he said the part he did have which was a different model could not be used because it would void my warranty.

    Anyway, he had used that part on two other calls before me. He ordered the part and informed me it would arrive at my house in a couple of days. Then said he scheduled an appointment to install the part on June 29, 2015. This is completely unacceptable. That makes a month I have been without an ice maker. I then called Home Depot and they advised there was nothing they could do. There needs to be a class action law suit against these two corporations. I will never ever shop at Home Depot again.

    Bought a Maytag fridge (MBR2258XES) in March 2012 plus a 4-year extended Home Depot plan for each. It's a bottom freezer unit which I later learned from the techs and online that there have been many issues with Maytag bottom freezer units. In addition THIS FRIDGE HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED. On 2/19/13, I called HD for repair on the fridge. Water was leaking from bottom freezer; ice buildup on the compressor. Technician wrote on repair form, "poor frost pattern on evap. coil - order compressor and duck bill." After four days with no fridge, a guy came and fixed. That first repair fell under Maytag's warranty. On 8/21/13, another repair company came for repair. AGAIN, ice buildup on coil and water leaking from freezer onto floor. My 89-yr old mother with Alzheimer's almost broke her neck slipping on the leak. They replaced duckbill and defrosted the drain according to the tech's notes on my receipt.

    On 9/23/14, once again, technician came for repair. I cannot read what he wrote but he was called because water was leaking once again. This past week, on 6/10/15, I called HD customer care to complain that this fridge is a lemon and has been "repaired" 3 times and I want to discuss replacement options. This time, the fridge was not working at all... no cold... no freezer. I was told that I only had TWO claims under HD which was correct, but in reality the fridge was repaired THREE times. That didn't matter to HD. They said they had to send another tech to look. Tech came and opened up the back of fridge, looked around, played a bit back there, unplugged and plugged unit back into outlet. He said it was RESET and should work now. HUH? Why did it shut off in the first place? He was barely understandable. Told me the fridge needs breathing room so the compressor can function properly.

    My fridge sits in an area like EVERY OTHER fridge in the USA!! He also said that TWICE a year I have to empty the fridge and freezer, unplug it, open the doors and leave it for two days. AMAZING. I have been frantically fighting with HD customer care to resolve this; they seem very reluctant to care for the customer. There is clearly something wrong with this fridge and all I want is to get it replaced. I begged with them. If not for the kindness of the mgr at my local HD store that loaned us a small mini fridge, we would have NOTHING since Wed, 6/10!!! Why is this not raising red flags with HD???

    I told them my mother has certain dietary needs and that my son and family need food and I cannot shop for a lot of things because the mini fridge cannot hold them. I am at a loss for words at this point. HD should be ashamed of themselves for letting this fester. They care nothing about how my family has been put out by not having a reliable fridge in my home. All they keep saying is that they have to abide by the warranty agreement. Perhaps at times, it's best to be a HUMAN BEING. FOUR issues in THREE years should be some type of clue that the fridge is not working properly. As of this writing, I'm waiting for Wed, 6/17 for yet another tech...

    After a positive interaction with Home Depot, Eric increased their star rating on June 23, 2015.

    Updated review: June 23, 2015

    Management was extremely quick to respond and addressed the situation. I feel that they actually listened and understood why I was so upset and apologized for the comments and attitude of their employee (who I still feel needs significantly more training to work in customer service). I'm raising my star-rating based on how the problem was handled, the professionalism with which the store manager handled my complaint, and based on past experiences I've had with Home Depot.

    Original Review: June 14, 2015

    I rented a truck from HD to transport lawn clippings from my house to the local transfer/recycling station, which was about a mile from the store and seven miles from my house. All together it was about a 15-mile trip. The tank originally had about 3/8 tank (or so I thought) but the form was marked as 5/8. So when it came time to return the truck I was very surprised by the additional gas charge ($28) and when I began to question the charge, the rep (**) said, "Now you're just lying."

    Disagreements, questions and misunderstandings are common in customer service; insulting customers or undermining their integrity is not, and is in no way acceptable. And just to point out the obvious, it's highly implausible that I used a quarter tank of gas (in a 20 gallon tank I'm guessing) in 15 miles. Instead of hearing me out though, the representative accused me of lying. He clearly lacks the basic skills necessary to be successful in customer service, yet he apparently is qualified to work at Home Depot and represent the face of the company. If that's the way Home Depot treat its customers (and people in general), I'll go to elsewhere.

    I ordered a lawn mower from The Home Depot (THD). It arrived in a box that was in perfect condition, but the lawn mower inside was not assembled and had damaged parts. I called their Customer Service and was told that I had to bring it back to the store or wait up to a month to get my money back because the return had to be approved by some arbitrary approval force at THD. They offered us a 10% discount on a repurchase which would basically cover the cost of the gas, so we chose to drive the 3 hrs round trip to the nearest store. They told us the store would not honor that price, however, so we spent 30 minutes with the rep on the phone locating the closest store and placing an online order for in-store pick-up so we could get the discounted price. The rep assured us it would be ready for pick-up that night, but it was already 7pm so we decided to go the next day.

    The next day, we made the drive and the lawn mower was not ready for pick-up. The rep placed an order to be shipped to our house. I did not authorize it to be shipped to my house (we'd already had one broken one delivered...), I authorized an in-store pick-up order. The store told me I had to call Customer Service as they had no control over the online system, so I called and cancelled the incorrect order within about 16 hours of that order being placed. I went home happy because THD store manager was great.

    I was happy until another lawn mower showed up at my door. They processed an order to ship this lawn mower to my house (that I didn't authorize to begin with) and that I informed them was an incorrect order less than 24 hours later. I was told the order had been cancelled but they processed it anyways. What??? When I called, I was told I had to bring it back to the store or wait 1-2 business days for UPS to call and schedule a pick-up. I wasn't driving another 3 hrs to return a lawn mower I never authorized being sent to my house in the first place, so I chose UPS. But I never received a call to schedule the pick-up. I called again. I was told, "Oh, UPS isn't coming to get it anymore. Custom Deliveries is coming to get it. Just leave it outside your house for up to the next 14 days, and they will come and get it."

    Our previous lawn mower was stolen from out front of our house (It was broken already or we wouldn't have left it out there under our carport), so I told her that wouldn't work. It's like gift wrapping it for thieves. It even has a picture on the outside so they will know what they are stealing. She told me I need to keep calling back to get a tracking number to find out when they would be coming. I waited a couple of days and called. I was informed that UPS should have come and gotten it by now... What??? I told the rep, once again that it was not safe outside my house and about the Custom Deliveries/tracking number thing, but she didn't know anything about that. She said that they could send me a UPS label and it would arrive in 24-48 hours so I could take it to UPS to send it back. That sounded okay at this point as I really wanted this saga to be over. I waited 4 days and did not receive anything. I called again.

    Every agent thus far had told me about 4 times each that I needed to bring it back to the store and this one was no different. I'm not driving 3 hours for their mistake. He said that they hadn't sent me the label because it is hazardous materials and has to be returned to the store... Um, it was mailed to me and was never opened, so no sir, that is false that it can't be mailed back. It also would have been nice if they would have called me at some point in this process to let me know the status of everything, but no. Not once have they contacted me.

    They came back and said that someone would call me with a "Resolution" within 24-48 hours. I informed them that I sincerely hope so because this is the last time I will attempt to call them. I told them that if I do not receive the promised call in 48 hours, I will begin the credit card dispute process and all further contact will be through the credit card company. Hopefully they will actually contact me, but we shall see.

Was told store would not be getting anymore and that co. does not control individual store prices. I told them it was available online, but price was $189.00. After a lot of back and forth with rep, was offered a 5% discount. I asked for a supervisor. That person upped the discount to 15% and said that was the maximum discount HD allowed. I asked to speak to someone who had the authority to override "company policy." The person kept telling me no one could. I insisted there had to be such a person - probably the person who made the 15% rule. Rep would not connect me but said I would get a return call in 24-48 hours. Five days later and no return call.

    I've searched HD various websites and did a Google search. No contact information for ANYONE at corporate offices. Both the initial rep and supervisor kept repeating and repeating the stuff about co. policy. It was obvious they were intentionally ignoring what I was asking and saying.

It was cheaper to order it in Canada so I didn't buy one stateside. The shipment date was moved back twice and then the order was cancelled. In the meantime the price went up to $149.00.

I was put on hold for about 20 minutes and when he came back on he said they were going to go ahead and ship it to me for the original $99.00. I thought great it's all fixed.

    The next day they call and said the order was cancelled because they were out of stock. I phoned again and got no help at all. I know the problem is they want me to buy it at the $149.00 price and will not honour the original $99.00 price. I have never received such poor customer service before.

    We purchased our Maytag Front Loading Washer from Home Depot Jan '12 and a four year extended warranty. The washer displayed repair codes starting on May 19, 2015. We attempted to contact the Protection Plan department. On the third try, after being placed on hold twice for over 10 minutes, we got through and a repair company was scheduled for May 26, 2015. We spoke with the repair company to confirm the appointment and to tell them which codes the machine was registering and that it would need a new board and drain pump. The repair person shows up on May 26, 2015 with no parts and just confirms, "Yes, the parts need to be ordered. They should arrive in 3-5 days." The first part shows up on Friday, May 29th and the second part shows up on June 1st.

    We call the repair place on Friday, May 29th and ask, "When will the machine be repaired?" The response is, "When the other part shows up, call and we can schedule the appointment." So on June 1st we call for an appointment -- none available until the following week.. The repair person is scheduled for June 8. Pump is replaced but big surprise -- the board is bad and now we have to order a new one and the cycle continues. Huge problem since it is now three weeks with no washing machine and it looks like it will be another two. Question is, how long does it take to fix a washing machine? Four to Five weeks...incredible and infuriating. We will NEVER purchase another appliance or extended warranty from Home Depot again.

    I am purchasing a hot water tank from Home Depot Canada and wanted to get it installed. The website says that they will install same day if you order before 12 noon. It's not until you are ordering it that they tell you it's not available on weekends. Then the price wasn't the same at the store (higher) than online. Then they charge you $40 for a quote on the price of the install. That part is fine but I wanted to know the ballpark price that would be charged before paying for a quote that may or may not be reasonable. They didn't want to give a ballpark until I pressed. Sure enough, they had a pricing available to see so why the resistance? A basic installation was $215 plus extra expenses. Removing a water softener was $40. OK, sounds reasonable so I order the quote and pay the $40.

    Sure enough the quote was $215 for the basic install, plus $40 for grounding the unit (that's not basic?), plus $33 for an overflow tube (that's not included or basic?), plus $80 for venting reconnection (that's not basic?), plus $80 for removing the water softener in lieu of the hot water tank as it is a rental (up from the $40 quoted at the store when the store associate was talking on the phone with the installation company). No wonder they didn't want to give me an initial ballpark figure. The one thing Home Depot did that was right was refund me my installation quote fee when I pointed out how crazy the extras were. Unfortunately, some people that don't know any better would pay the extra fees.

    By the way, did I mention that I was replacing an identical unit that was up to code so there were no additional steps required, just swap out the old unit and bring in the new one. The fitter that ended up doing the job (for a lot less than quoted by Home Depot) said that this job was about as basic as they get and that everything in it should have been a "basic installation".

I have Fibromyalgia, Restless body syndrome, Diabetes, etc. I am exhausted and frustrated. I will NEVER buy from Home Depot again. WORST. EXPERIENCE. EVER.

    Today I was completely humiliated in THE home depot store located in Gatineau! I went to the store to return a garden equipment that I rented yesterday and the gentleman who assisted me humiliated me in front of everyone! And when I complained to the manager, I received from him an apology and a paper written by him for a discount of $25.00 to be used at any time I return to the store!!

    Tried to enter their sweeps. They told me the numbers for their user ID and password was wrong. But if so, it was their wrong numbers and have tried to contact them and they will not answer my email. What can be done about this? Are they running some kind of scam?

    Wanted to return unused utility trailer. Home depot claimed it had a 1100 lbs weight limit. Max out at 800 lbs. HD said it could not be returned because it was a titled product. Corporate and store management would not help resolve issue in any way. Also at time of purchase no employee informed me this was a non-returnable item. Will go miles out of the way to shop Lowe's from this point forward.

    Price was listed incorrectly at 78 cent per square ft. When we asked to purchase 1600 square ft of tiles they said that the price was incorrectly listed and it's $2 per square ft. They blamed it on the supplier that they have no responsibilities for the price listed. They will not honor the mistake and will give us $200 off which is not even 10% off the original price, we can get better price with our military discount. I was there for a whole hour speaking to incompetent work named ** and **. Store Manager is ** at Lemon Grove Store. Called homedepot.com to talk to the district manager and they could not do anything to honor what they have advertise.

    We have always used Home Depot. We think their customer service while in the store is exceptional. Memorial day weekend 2015 we rented a drum sander and a edger to redo out wood floor. While we were picking up the sanders the young man behind the counter on Monday the 25th 2015 at 7:30 A.M. in the Riverdale Utah store checked us out and gave us NO information on the "damage protection" warranty. He just charged us 10.00 a sander with no explanation.

    Now when you rent something from ANYWHERE else you would think this is damage protection in case you ruin it or break it, RIGHT? NOOO we paid 20.00 just in case they have not serviced it in awhile and it breaks down on you. If you damage it at all you pay the damage fee. I accidentally sanded over a part of the cord. I fixed it like all the other million fixes in the cord with black electrical tape, places I am sure they charged other customers but still using the old cord. I am sure the 85.00 they charged us should be enough to replace the cord.

    She did knock it down to 40.00, but still don't think it was a fee we should of paid for, or at least rename the "damage Protection" to something we all can understand. I saw at least 4 other black electrical taped areas. Let's see that is 340.00, plenty enough money to replace the sander AND the cord, so what are you paying for anyway. This was a bogus charge. The black electrical tape fixed is fine and continued to use it. This charge should be explained a lot better.

    I went into Home Depot today Memorial Day with my friend and was going to buy a riding lawn mower (John Deere or a Cub Cad). But when I tried to use my military ID for a discount they turned me down. Of all days.
