    Since July 17, when I placed an order with Kmart for a Bed-in-a-bag for my daughter, I have had nothing but aggravation! First, they sent my order to Florida and I live in Doylestown, Pennsylvania (with absolutely no connection to Florida!). 2nd, when August 16 came around and still no order, I had to go to a store and purchase another bed in the bag set (mind you I already paid Kmart $80 + dollars). Third, they told me I received my order which I myself tracked to Fl and had to tell them! It's now September 5, I have not received my refund and the company either texts me or calls me every day with questions!!!

    Over the years we had received good quality and value from Kmart brand products and good service from the stores. However, in recent years there has been a steep decline in product quality with company policies that seem to run contrary to the interest of keeping customers. Maybe it's from nostalgia for the old days or perhaps misplaced pity or foolish loyalty, but it felt sad to see so many Kmart stores closing and sad to think about all the people who will be losing their jobs as the result. So, I made a "good-faith" conscious decision to buy a small piece of furniture from Kmart online. I was happy to see that the style and model of chest that I wanted was still available, and more so that it would be available for pick up at a local store the same day!

    Knowing that websites aren't always updated in a timely fashion, I decided to call the store to confirm that the item was in stock - YES! So, despite the fact that the so-called local Kmart is quite a distance away from our house (our own truly local Kmart closed YEARS ago in one of the first waves of closures) we decided it was worth it to make an online order. We picked up the item and didn't expect for there to be any problem. However, once the box was opened we noticed that significant parts were missing. We've had that happen before with other brands of assemble-at-home furnishing, but have always been able to call a manufacturer's phone number to request replacement parts. We tried to do that this time but couldn't, because the chest was manufactured in Brazil and there was nobody there who could speak English to us! And we don't speak Portuguese!

    On closer inspection of the instruction sheets, it became apparent that the although the sketches of the chest were very similar, this kit WAS NOT THE SAME AS THE ONE WE HAD ORDERED! What we received was produced by a different manufacturer! This surely felt like bait-and-switch. So, I tried to do live chat on the Kmart website. Took a very long time for someone to connect, had difficulty retrieving the order number (didn't already have it handy) then got disconnected. Tried to contact them again, waited around and then gave up.

    Is it any wonder that the company is having problems? Why can't retailers see that the key to having a thriving business is to treat the customer well? Customers may not always be right, but they are not totally stupid either. Poor customer service and shoddy workmanship will ultimately drive customers into the arms of competitors.

    Have been a long time customer of Kmart and Shop Your Way rewards. As of recent, points earned have not been received, orders were missing items and after calling 6 times, was either hung up on or put on hold for over a hour with no return, after speaking with Shop Your Way customer service, there was nothing they could do about the 37.00$ in points I didn't receive, not the 12.00$ in points that mysteriously disappeared from my account.

    Finally received an email that 14.00 would be refunded for the missing comforter (yes the 38$ comforter set was missing the comforter). I am not sure how they came up with that amount for the mail item in the set, but not only did they refund 14.00 but they took 12.00 back in points that were awarded for this purchase. So all in all, I received a refund of 2.00 and never received my cash back points of 27.00 for the purchase. No wonder the store is going out of business and no longer care about the reputation of their business to their valued customers. I personally will not be returning back as a customer.

    I had placed an item on layaway over a month ago. I admit, I was late on last payment. According to my contract agreement on my receipt it states, "Merchandise would be returned to stock 7 days after due date." When I realized I had forgotten to make my payment, I attempted to pay it online. Their website is a joke so don’t bother thinking you will get anywhere on that thing. Anyway, so I called the store because I wouldn’t be able to get to the store to make the payment until 8 days after payment due date and wanted to see if it could be held for just one more day. Only to discover item was already returned to stock. I was told there is only a 5 day grace period. I said, "My contract says 7! I was also told 7 when I placed the item on layaway." The woman said, “oh, that was changed, but we never bothered to update the contract.”

    If you look at their website for contract details it states a 14 day grace period. She was kind of snippy and made a comment about it being late. She ended the conversation with saying there was nothing she could do, it’s all done electronically and they have no control over it. Again, I realize I was late and that is 100% my fault. However, is it supposed to be no big deal that they change their policies but offer no updates to the consumer? This isn’t the first time I have had issues with this chain but have gone back here and there in hopes things would have improved only to be disappointed. At one time I was sad that so many Kmart stores have been closing. Mainly because they are the only store that has layaway and sometimes that comes in handy. But I will not be returning to Kmart.

I had to go to store and make an even exchange with correct item 5 tank tops as my order says. However upon the customer service reviewing my order I not only had to go out of my way to get this item but they charged me $1.15 extra to make the exchange.

    On June 7th 2018 I was shopping for a large TV at Kmart at 245 East Maryland in St. Paul. I was barefoot because I had just done a barefoot walk around the nearby lake. I live a barefoot lifestyle for health reasons. I was told at a Florida Kmart just weeks before that the company had no policy against barefoot customers. I talked to the store manager specifically about shopping barefooted. They were glad to have any customers barefoot or wearing shoes. I was looking at TVs at the Maryland St. Paul store, and a manager told me to leave the store immediately because I was barefoot. I asked to see that policy in writing. She said she would call police if I didn’t leave, so I decided to leave. I have shopped many Kmart stores all over the country barefooted, and always was greeted and helped without confrontation.

    I called their corporate office and complained of discrimination. They said their manager had no business telling me to leave. They missed out on a sale. I went to Walmart and bought a TV instead. I was also barefoot when I purchased it from Walmart. No wonder Kmart is going broke. Who cares what people wear. Flip flops and sandals are more dangerous than bare feet. I still go there barefoot there just to see if it happens again. I wish more people would do it too just to prove a point. I hate when managers make up rules that don’t exist. Other managers at the same store have helped me and just said “Oh, no shoes today huh”, not, "You can’t be in here barefoot." They helped me like any other customer. Going barefoot is legal. Look up "Barefoot is legal" on Twitter. Help stop this from happening. Thanks!

    I have enjoyed having a Kmart in Norridge, Illinois. It is near my home and I buy a lot of clothing there. I would miss shopping online if it were gone, but regardless, they really need to make some improvements. A major problem is their in-store pickup; nothing is ever ready to pickup in a timely manner, even when the item is right there on the shelf. There was one time I ordered an item for pickup and it took 5 hours to get the email that the item was ready, all they had to do was pluck it off the shelf but it took 5 hours for that.

    This is one of the more popular Kmart locations in Illinois, but it shouldn't take that much time. Target and Walmart can usually get in-stock items ready for pickup in under two hours. During another pickup, I had gotten the email and rushed to the store but they hadn't even removed the item from the shelf yet. When the girl went to get it, they didn't even have the item and had not in years. Their website clearly was not updated. I just recently made a purchase for pickup on an item that said they had some in-stock. After over 48 hours of waiting for the email to alert me to come to the store, it turned out they didn't actually have any in-stock and were attempting to source the item from another location and it was taking a long time.

    I had to cancel after waiting and then repurchase for a higher price at another store. Many of the employees appear to be lazy as they seem put out if you ask them to do anything, and that goes for the old and the young. Nobody knows anything about anything. The store could use a good cleaning. Some of the floors are terrible looking. Kmart doesn't have to be a bad place to shop, but it seems the head honchos don't care about the stores, even the ones that make good money.

    My wife bought over $200 worth of home essentials... Mostly new towels, washcloths, etc. to match a new bathroom remodel we did. My wife bought 2 sets of colors, one of which did not match the new color scheme. Additionally, we had one towel of the color we did like that was defective (when we unfolded it, it had several noticeable thread-pulls. Without attempting to defend our delay, I went to return the items 34 days after the purchase. Everything still had tags, everything was still in the bag, and I had the receipt. I was told that according to Kmart policy, I could not return them. I ask if there was anything that could be done. The person said no. No credit... No exchange... Not anything. Basically, I was stuck with these items.

    I decided to try again a couple days later and speak with the store manager. I received the same response. I even tried to negotiate getting just getting a replacement for the one towel that had the defects-- they wouldn't even exchange that one defective towel -- it was less than $10! I followed up by called corporate HQ number and received the exact same response. When I compare with Walmart, Target, Kohl's, etc... Minimum return window is 90 days. For those last two, the time is indefinite if you have a receipt.

    Generally speaking, those return processes are comparatively "HASSLE-FREE." Strangely, if you sign up as a Kmart member you get an additional 15 days (45 days) to return things... Which still isn't competitive. The person didn't even say, "hey, let's just check to see if you are a member." or "if you sign up as a member now, we will honor the return." The point is that there was no solution to help me as a customer. Kmart policy was very rigid, and there appears to be no room for entrepreneurial behavior to help customers with problems. That said... I am no longer shopping at Kmart or Sears (Kmart's parent company).

    Ordered 6 "room darking" shades that turned out not to be "room darkening" at all. Returned them almost 3 weeks ago. Kmart ordered UPS pick-up. Now I can't seem to get a refund. I've chatted with them at least 3 times, and they keep telling me that a refund will be deposited in 3 to 5 business days. As of yet, it hasn't happened. They are very difficult to get a hold of, unless you do the "chat" option. The last gentleman I spoke with, told me that they hadn't been received yet. I sent him a copy of the UPS tracking, and he still insisted he was right. Then he told me that he'd make an exception and refund my money anyway. Guess what? It hasn't happened.

    This company is terrible to deal with. There's really no way to contact anyone other than who they WANT you to have contact with, and those people don't do anything to help you. I'm so frustrated, and will never, never buy from them again. My system is prohibiting me from sharing my receipt or the UPS tracking that I have. I could forward them to a specific email address, however.

    I purchased a shapewear top for 19.99 and an underwear for 1.49 at Kmart. I had the receipt but I left the bag in the car and the ink faded so I threw the receipt away, anyways when I finally remembered to return the merchandise there was a new policy about returning merchandise, “If you lost the receipt then you have to find the same merchandise to be able to return your merchandise.” Well that was what Melinda ** told me.” She is the overnight supervisor. I told her, “Find it yourself.” You see there 4x is actually a 2x. Their panty just bought by mistake.

    She told me that she could find a larger size. From my perspective the shapewear was a missize. I took the merchandise back. I will not be returning to Kmart. I spend 500-1000 dollars there every month. Wouldn’t it be wiser to please the customer and keep them coming back or lose a customer who spends a thousand dollars a month there. Do the math!

I called back and asked to speak to a manager. The person said I could not speak to a manager, they can change the price after the order, when charging your CC, because they are must be updating the price.

    I had the option to cancel the order, or accept it. TO THIS DAY, 4 DAYS LATER IT IS THE SAME PRICE! I did not even order from Sears.com, I called the Kmart.com number!

    This is an issue that I have with both Kmart and Sears, so I'll be sure to share my frustration on both pages. My problem is not unique--Sears/Kmart messed up my order, took forever to resolve the issue, which then was ALSO messed up, which ultimately resulted in a second round of phone calls, emails, and complaints. The story is essentially this: I spent about $130 on several pieces of clothing that were to be given as gifts on Friday, December 15th. I ordered everything on November 20th, so that was PLENTY of time to receive everything, get them packed, etc. Well, because I had ordered so many things, they were shipped from various warehouses and came in 6 different shipments... which is totally fine! As long as everything got here, I didn't care in what order they arrived at my house.

    Well, on the 7th of December, my last parcel arrived... but there were TWO huge errors. One of the skirts was the absolute wrong color, and the other one... wasn't there. They literally just neglected to put one of my skirts in the shipment, even though there was a checklist enclosed. I'm not sure what moron could make this sort of mistake, but whatever. Not a huge deal, right? I figured that this was a mistake that could be resolved fairly simply. I'll just call Sears, send them the picture of the opened parcel with the wrong color skirt and missing item, and surely they can expedite the correct pieces. Hahaha, nope.

    After being transferred three times over the phone, I finally was connected with someone who said they couldn't really help me with getting the right color skirt in time (because I'd have to send it back, wait for it to be verified that they received it, then they'd send the right one to me), BUT he said he could absolutely make sure that my missing skirt was sent to me, and that it would be received before my deadline (December 15th). He was very kind and processed the order for me, and we were good to go... or so I thought. For whatever reason the very next day, I received an email saying my order was cancelled. Of course I'm fuming by now, because that's another day lost. I immediately call and get the most uninformed customer service rep that I've ever spoken with.

    I explained the situation and said I had documentation of everything (as I record phone calls and save all chats with agents), and that I needed her to expedite ship my skirt to me ASAP. At first, this agent insisted that I pay for the skirt, even though I had clear evidence that I already paid for the item and it never arrived, and that the order had been placed again for me last night, but someone on their end cancelled it for no freaking reason. After arguing with her for 30 minutes, she finally just reinstated the order that had been cancelled. I asked her if she could guarantee that this order would actually arrive and not get cancelled as well. She said she couldn't answer that sort of question. So I asked if there was a way for her to at least find out WHY the other one got cancelled. She didn't answer my question, but merely asked if I was satisfied with the resolution.

    After another 5 minutes of her dodging questions, I decided that I was just going to call a complaint hotline, because I had enough. Fast forward another two hours, I finally got a formal complaint submitted. The person I spoke with was very kind and understanding, and I was able to receive a tracking number for my shipment the following day. As of right now, the skirt is slated to arrive on December 14th, which is cutting everything EXTREMELY closely. All in all, I'm just very upset that I had to go through all of this over Sears/Kmart's error.

    YOU sent me the wrong color of something (which I'm just not even going to bother with trying to fix), and you flat out try to steal from me by not sending an item I paid for? Had I been busy and not meticulously counting things as they arrived, I might not have noticed. So, I would have legitimately just given them money for something one of their underpaid, underqualified staff overlooked placing in my box, EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A CHECKLIST. Unreal! I feel like at the very least, I deserve some sort of credit or partial refund for the absurd amount of time and energy that I was forced to put into this entire debacle.

    Had Sears/Kmart operated like a competent organization, they would've just sent me the correct pieces from my order the first time. Yet, here I am--weeks later--still upset and agitated, because I'm waiting on a skirt that I should've received last week. And part of me fears that this will be the wrong color, since they've already demonstrated that they cannot be trusted to fulfill an orderly properly the first time. As soon as I get this skirt, I will be sure to NEVER do business with Sears/Kmart again. It was a mistake to utilize them for any of these purchases, but I wanted to take a chance. Well, I can assure you that I will not be wasting my time with them from this point forward. It's no wonder this company is dying--they have no clue what they're doing or how to provide decent customer service. Good riddance, Kmart and Sears... the both of you!

That was not the case so I ordered one that the customer service rep said was available. Again not the case. I talked to at least 10 people including the corporate office who put me on hold for 23 minutes before I hung up. I was told by two different people to wait 72 hours or cancel and reorder, now if you don't have the item that I needed yesterday why would I reorder it?

    I'm going to give one star considering there is not an option for no star. Completely aggravated with Kmart today! After 10 years of having $300+ layaways every year, I have never been so disappointed and won't be shopping here again! I went to pick up my second layaway for this year and have always paid at least one day late because I am from the Sacandaga Lake area and am unable to make it on weekends, just to find out they have returned my items to the shelf. With no communication of doing so and that they are no longer providing a 5 day grace period.

    Not only did I waste my time on driving down (I know they don't accept late payments online) then I get told I would only get $14 back when I made two payments of $30?! The layaway was made on the 11/5. Today is 12/4. Payments are every two weeks. If I didn't make two payments it would have been returned to shelves two weeks ago! I spoke with a manager who then realized that one of my payments was made to "a wrong layaway" and to just give me the $30 back. So my loss on their mistake?! This is how you conduct business?! Very distasteful and this will not be the only complaint I'll be making.

She then harassed me for 5 minutes about whether I was positive that it was perfume and not a Beyblade set.

    I asked to speak to a supervisor again and she asked me why I thought I needed to speak to a supervisor... That's some nerve. She proceeded to tell me to take the item back to Kmart and get a refund there, I told all of them were closed around here. Then she said she would give me a shipping label and I can take it to the UPS store, which is 35 miles away (I live out in the country). I told her I wasn't driving 70 miles round trip to fix their mistake. She then told me that she would arrange a UPS pick up and it would only cost ME $7! I asked what they would do about getting me the item I actually ordered, I was told I would have to start a new order, pay again, and wait again. But, they would start to process my refund AFTER their warehouse receives and processes the package containing their mistake.

    So I have to wait for the same imbeciles who gave me the wrong order in the first place to reprocess their own mistake before I get a refund! I asked her why they felt I should be doing all of the work and going out of my way or paying extra to correct a mistake they made and she explained that's just their policy. Asked again to speak to a supervisor, put in hold and shortly disconnected. Called back same run around except this time they are willing to give me $7 in reward dollars to compensate me for having to pay the UPS pick-up fee. I asked to speak to a supervisor again, again disconnected. Sent an email to the email address on the shipping receipt, received an error message 5 minutes later saying it was an unmonitored email address. Logged on to my account, and opened chat. Same run around except this time they were "more than willing" to give me a 5% coupon for my next purchase in addition to the $7 in reward dollars.

    "More than willing" like that 5% was some kind of grand gesture after spending over 2 hours on the phone, hanging up on me, including a defunct email address on their paperwork, trying to charge me to correct their mistake and then refusing to give me a refund until they have time to receive and process their own mistake and even arguing with me about whether I even received the package!! I told him I would not need the coupon or the reward dollars as this would be my last purchase from Kmart or Sears and he acted thoroughly shocked that I wasn't satisfied with the nothing at all that they did to help me. I guess I'll stick with Amazon from now on.

    I ordered two perfume sets as gifts. One arrived damaged. Since Kmart does not have an email option for customer service, I used the chat box. The "woman" I chatted with insisted on refunding me and reordering a replacement. I hesitantly agreed, but let her know I felt that was a lengthy and complicated process when she could just send the replacement. She assured me I would pay the same price for the replacement, as I got the original on sale. When she told me the refund and repurchase prices, they were different. So, I asked her not to replace the order. She then rudely ended the chat with me without any further explanation of what would happen next or a confirmation of any kind.

    I then found out she refunded me in points, rather than sending the money back to my credit card that I paid with. Luckily, she didn't reorder. I tried to call customer service and got a guy that didn't speak English well and had a staticky connection. I couldn't communicate with him and hung up. This matter is still unresolved. I can't believe Kmart would have such lousy customer service when they've been around for so long. Very disappointed. I guess I'll spend the points and avoid Kmart afterwards. I would not suggest shopping with them online. My in-store purchases were never a problem. However, the Kmarts in my area were closed just recently. I wish they hadn't because I could have exchanged my damaged item at the store instead of all this hassle.

    I bought a 7 piece bedding set for $80 3 weeks ago. I have been for the past 2 weeks trying to get the contact number for the manufacturer who makes it because the bedding came apart at the seam it I should say was apart at the seam. I was going to exchange but can't find my receipt for the life of me. So that's why I wanted a number for who actually makes it because I just want a new comforter!

    No one, not even KMART who sells this brand has a number for the manufacturer. I tried google, everything. They don't exist. Kmart says I have now had it too long to just exchange it. This is insane and at this rate I will NEVER shop there again and will encourage others not to as well because the customer service has been RIDICULOUS!!! Nowhere did I see a purchase as is sign on my item. I didn't catch it until I had already put it on my bed and it was on the side of the bed I don't use so I didn't catch it immediately. I just want a replacement comforter and I can't even get a correct phone number for the people that make it and KMART basically said they can't "assist" with this. What the hell?!

    First I'd like to start off saying that my credit card itself was compromised through Kmart/Sears! So unknowingly I go to the store buy things for my daughter's college dorm. And while I'm paying with my credit card they informed me my card is not working because it's been compromised. After an hour on the phone with them they finally give me my new card number and allow me to make these purchases. However it seems the cashier herself forgot to give me one of my tax so when I go home and unload I realize their silly things missing couple of plastic forks and knives. Couldn't cost more than five dollars in total.

    I called the store and explain and they told me I had to re-purchase the items because anyone could say they bought these things and never received them (I bought close to $400 worth of stuff. I was only claiming about five dollars of it was lost and was willing to show them the receipt). They would not refund my items so I go back. I repurchased the items again with no credit card just my driver's license. Fast forward to a month later I still have not received my card for a bill so I call them to ask how to pay for the credit card and what to do next.

    They tell me I have to wait for the credit card in order to pay and I cannot pay in the store because I do not have a credit card. I'm allowed to buy without the actual card however I cannot pay without the actual card and I can wait for another bill to come to my house but that will cost me A late fee. Terrible customer service. Terrible safety. For cautions I will be closing my card and never purchasing from them again and how do I know if someone else hasn't gone in there and make charges to my card without the actual bill. This is insane. Never I guess.

    I ordered two watches online at Kmart. It was two weeks and still no watches but my credit card was charged 42.00 for the watches. I had a hard time finding a Kmart number online to call, finally found a number and told them I had not received the watches yet and the representative, which sounded like from another country, which she was hard to understand when she spoke, said that my order was still processing and I would get an email in 24 to 48 hours about it. So I received an email within that time period telling me that they were having problems processing it and when it was processed it would be 8 to 10 day before I would receive the order.

    So I’ve been waiting a whole month now and received a email today a month since I ordered these watches, and also it says online when you order something they don't bill you until it ships or you receive it which is not true because they immediate charged my credit card. The Email said that they could not process my order and that I would have to reorder them again, nothing about a refund, there was a underline chat I could click on and did but hmmm nothing happened when I did so I called the 800-416-7565 customer service and again talked to someone that was hard to understand, told me that they were still processing it and I told her that the email I got said they couldn’t process it and I would have to reorder it again, I told her I wanted a full refund, she said I was not charged for the order. I told her that, “Yes I was charged on my credit card”.

    She told me that she would contact someone about it and send me another email in 24 hrs to 48 hrs, what a joke. Do not order anything from Kmart, they are getting desperate and are soon going out of business so they will do anything to get your money and they do not care how they treat their customers. I’m not sure yet if I will get a refund, but if I hadn't called. I'm pretty sure they would of just kept my money.

    On 8/22/17 I placed an online order with Kmart for beach items. A beach umbrella, towel & chair. On 8/24/17 my package arrived (via UPS) but in it was 3 heavy cases of cat food & a gas can! I called customer service right away to tell them I received the wrong order. I was told by the customer service rep that my options were to return the box to a Kmart myself or take it to a UPS location for return and they would email me a label to print out. Really? I was in disbelief that they would make such a suggestion for THEIR error. I told them that I would do no such thing. Not only because they had no idea if I even had the means to travel to any Kmart... on top of the fact that the box was extremely heavy... but simply because this was an error on their part & they should take full responsibility & send UPS back to pick up the package!

    They arranged to have UPS come back out & told me I'd receive an email letting me know which day. In the meantime I was out of my beach items! I was told I would have to re-order them & for my inconvenience they would deduct 5% from each item. I was also told that when they received the package back to their warehouse I would be issued a full refund for my original order. Reluctantly, I placed an additional order as I needed the items for my beach trip. Unfortunately, the chair was no longer available, which was a disappointment, so I just re-ordered the umbrella & towel. That order arrived, correctly, the following week as well as UPS to retrieve the package (by the way, I never did receive notification by email when UPS would be arriving as I was told I would).

    Fast forward to 9/3/17, I called Kmart customer service to check on the status of the return & my refund. They had no record of a return. I was then asked did UPS leave tracking info with me. I told them I wasn't sure I could find it & couldn't remember the exact day they came but since Kmart was who arranged the return of the package from my home that they should have some type of electronic record of it as well. After being put on hold several times I was told by the rep that they located the tracking number & it showed that UPS had picked up the package from my home on 8/31/17 & my refund should be processed in 48 hours. Instead, I received an email from Kmart the following day acknowledging that I called but that they had in fact NOT located the tracking number (or return) so I would have to provide them with that information.

    I was too frustrated at the time to deal with them & took a few days to gather my bearings & was hoping for better news the next time I called. Tonight, 9/6/17, was a complete horror story with Kmart's customer service. I spoke with 4 different reps who each found a way to eventually disconnect me!! The first rep I spoke with started out very nice & understanding after I explained the situation. He said he didn't want us to end the call with me unsatisfied. (He failed miserably!) He even went as far as to begin to process the refund. When I asked him what the total of the refund would be (so that I could verify he was refunding the right order) I realized it wasn't the correct amount & that he was refunding me for the second order I placed instead of the original! Remember, the original order included 3 items (umbrella, towel & chair) that was FULLY paid for but didn’t receive!

    I placed the second order (spending MORE money) but only received the beach umbrella & towel because the chair was no longer available. So in essence, I was being shorted the amount of the chair I originally paid for. When I tried explaining this his entire demeanor changed. He became rude & was no longer customer friendly. It was clear he had reached the peak of his training & no longer knew how to accommodate the call. He placed me on hold & I mysteriously ended up being connected to the Spanish speaking department. I hung up & called back. I get the 2nd rep & now I'm more frustrated than ever as each call means explaining the situation all over again. This time I asked to speak with a supervisor. I was put on hold as I was told a supervisor was being located. When the rep got back on the line I was informed I was being transferred to a supervisor.

    I was so relieved to finally be able to speak with someone with more authority who could potentially fix my problem with ease. It wasn't so. A few seconds later I was met with a dial tone. Refusing to give up I place a 3rd call. I get a rep by the name of Vincent. He was very accommodating & pleasant. I thought the call with him was going quite well. It seems that he may have even already knew a bit about my plight... perhaps by notes left on my account, by talk amongst the customer service reps in the office or both. Either way I felt confident this was the last call I'd have to make & that my refund would be on its way. I was placed on hold for a few minutes after being told he was going to try & process my refund. However, when he came back on the line it was cut off & I was yet again, listening to a dial tone.

    I call back a 4th time, I let the new rep know I was disconnected several times & that I'd like to speak with Vincent, the last rep I was speaking with. She blatantly did not honor my request... she said "I'm sorry ma'am could you give ME your order number". I can't remember being more frustrated & angry than I was in that moment. I had no more kindness or patience left & I let more than one profanity slip out. Still, the call was heading in a positive direction. With Rep #4, I also got up to the point of being told I would have my refund processed. She even verified the correct refund amount.

    When she said she wanted to put me on hold I almost begged her not to. I couldn't deal with another disconnection after being so seemingly close to my refund yet again! I decided to take my chances and allow her to place me on hold. And as fate would have it, after a few minutes, the call disconnected. My efforts for my refund have ceased for the night but I intend to get in touch with the corporate office tomorrow. My treatment by Kmart is absolutely inexcusable that started with THEIR error. This experience has left me with no desire to do business with them again.

    My son and daughter-in-law received a bassinet as a gift for their premie. They had a boy and the bassinet was pink. They went into Kmart to exchange it and were told there are no exchanges without a receipt and the receipt has to be within 30 days of purchase. I told them to let my husband (pappy) handle it. He called corporate who told him no exchanges or returns without a receipt and it must be within 30 days. Both my son and my husband said the people they spoke with were extremely rude. So, I called the corporate office and asked to speak with the CEO. I was told "NO!" and hung up on. I guess there are a lot of unhappy customers out there asking for the same thing.

    So, I called back and asked for customer service. I politely explained my situation and was told the same thing. I asked if there was any way to file paperwork or something for an exception. I was told no but this lady was very pleasant. I asked her name. It was Gail. When I receive nice customer service I like to make it a point to let the retailer know so they can notice that the person facing the public is doing a good job. Gail did her best to help me. She told me that while I could not return or exchange the bassinet that she would give me $65 in points so I could go to the store and get one. My grandson was about to leave the NICU and come home. She told me to give her a minute to log the call because they get audited and need to make sure they justify the reasoning. She also told me to wait 24 hours before I go to the store so she is sure the points would post.

    I went to the store yesterday and when I went to check out the points weren't there. The manager on duty called the points department for me on their phone so I could talk to them. I was on the phone for an hour and a half trying to clear up this issue. The points department could not see a log of my previous call with Gail. Since the call was to corporate the representative (Saudia) said it may be better if I call corporate back. I explained that I was at the store and my items were sitting there in check out and asked if she could get a manager and possibly help me. I was continually put on hold.

    So many times that I called the corporate customer service back. I spoke with Marcy this time. She checked my rewards number and told me the same thing that Saudia was telling me. There was no record of the call. After I explained my issue/situation a third time Marcy told me that it was against company policy to help me and she doubted this woman (Gail) would have given me $65 in points and she was NOT going to give them to me either. But Marcy can look up the logs by the phone number used when placing the call. So, after close to an hour and a have she found the log from Gail using my phone number. She now could see I was not telling a lie! Marcy issued the credit. I checked out my items. I will NEVER step foot in a Kmart or Sears again!!

I asked if I could get a store credit. I was told, "No returns or exchanges after 30 days". I asked if I could exchange the size. I was told, "No returns or exchanges after 30 days". I asked if I could speak to a manager. She said "Nope. No returns or exchanges after 30 days". That was my first and last purchase from K-Mart.

    So yesterday I was looking for coupons because I really like good deals, and found one for free girl’s sunglasses at Kmart value of 6.99. The Kmart nearest to me was located in Desert Hot Springs California, I live about an hour from there but I was already going down there because my Mom had a doctor’s appointment so I decided to tag along. I've never been someone so depressing before. I walked through the doors and it reeked of stale pizza, dirty water, and who knows what else. It was just an unpleasant sight. The employees were not helpful whatsoever. I asked one lady where do I go to redeem my coupons and she said one thing and another said something else. Eventually I found the customer service desk where people bring their items back. After already waiting 10 minutes for someone to come and help me, I was told to go and get the girl’s glasses which were the value of 6.99.

    After doing so I came back and had to wait another 10 minutes to be served. Then I was told that they don't accept online coupons here but after arguing for another 10 minutes they finally agreed to take the coupon. Then apparently the computer wasn't ringing it up so they had call the manager which wasted another 15 minutes of my time waiting for her to come down. But apparently these glasses weren't the right kind because the manager said that they didn't have the special barcode on them. I pleaded with them that I called to confirm that Kmart takes this coupons and I could get any girl’s sunglasses but they said no and kept arguing with me it was like talking to a brick wall. So I decided to just leave because this was just a huge waste of time. But then they wouldn't even give me my coupon back! I decided to call corporate and tell them about my terrible experience.

    I finally got someone on the phone but they were extremely rude calling me "sir" even though I'm a woman. I corrected him twice but he kept doing thinking it was funny. I tried to tell him but he just said "I’m sorry I don't know how to help you with your problem." I asked if Kmart had an email I could contact he said no, I look and they don't. Worst experience of my life, I never been so grateful to have a Walmart in my life. This is why I'm pretty sure there's not that many Kmart left in the world. Absolutely the worst!

    Terrible. I went to my local Kmart with 3 tops to return with the receipt and tags. I was told two of them were not on the receipt, they were all on the receipt with the same numbers on tag and items. When this idiot at school scanned them in she claimed they weren't in there. I asked for a manager who said maybe it was that the receipt was cut off at the left but the numbers were still there. Then he asks her "Can you return them!" She says, "Not without some proof of payment." I guess a receipt with correct items isn't proof anymore if the ** computer system doesn't work is not proof enough?

    Brain dead. Everyone in this store is brain dead. They have their own little dictatorship here. The woman was very rude and told me sarcastically to have a nice day. She gave me a store credit for the one top without even asking me if I wanted a credit to my card. I bought this 2 weeks ago. These people don't give a ** about their customers. My email receipt was not given. I had trouble to OtterX in the past month at this Farmingville store. They messed up my email receipt and I had to return and buy everything back twice. The clerk failed told me I had a 10 dollar credit. Once I force these people to return my merchandise I will never shop here again except maybe online. They don't care about the customer at all. I called the 800 number to complain and they said someone will call me back and give me a return/credit hopefully. Let's see if it happens or not.

It clearly states on the package and I quote ''backed by the ultimate LIFETIME warranty, if the hose ever fails at any time Kmart will repair or replace the hose at no charge, simply return the hose to your nearest Kmart with original packaging.'' Unquote.

    I was told by a customer service rep. in Danville Va on 8-5-17 that the warranty was good for 30 days and I had to go through the manufacturer to get the warranty taken care of, NO that's not what is stated in the warranty on the package. Anyhow she would not do anything, customer service at the corporate level will not do anything either. No wonder kmarts all around are closing, personally the way they conduct business I hope they all go broke and fold. They need to learn what CUSTOMER SERVICE is, not make it up as they go. Anyhow I wish them what they give every one of their customers - NOTHING - and good riddance, never again, hope everyone else does the same.

I contacted corporate, nothing, all they do is apologize, I even told the guy, to stop apologizing, made me more mad, so anyway they definitely lost a customer, and I am telling everyone DO NOT even waste your time.

    Since we don't normally shop with them, we had no idea of the issues Sears Holdings was having financially or with keeping items in stock. We learned after our experience. We ordered a $444.71 pool from the online site on July 6. We learned from UPS the order was damaged. We ordered a pool from Kmart on July 6. We learned on July 9th from UPS that the order had been damaged in transit. We checked our order through Kmart's website and saw the order had been canceled. We called the Kmart/Sears Customer Service Center on the 10th and asked if a refund had been issued. We were told it was and to wait "3-5 business days."

    We were told Kmart never had a pool for us and canceled the order. We checked the website and saw the pool showed as still in stock and was reduced $50 lower than what we paid. We asked why that was and we're told is was because the website had not been updated. So, it was updated enough for a price reduction but not quantity? They say they never shipped one, but UPS notified us it was damaged. We figured then that was a bad sign of how this was going to be handled.

    We waited patiently as long as the man. Then we called back to let them know the money was not there and that there is an issue. We were then told the refund was not issued on the 10th and that it was issued that day and we'd have to wait again for it. We patiently waited the timeline that person asked and nothing happened. We called and spoke to Carol yesterday 7/20. Carol told us a refund still had not been issued and that she would issue one and try to expedite it to be in our account for this morning. Once again, it's not there. She said the new refund she issued can take until the middle of next week. This seems like an endless cycle!

    Even getting a supervisor has been a hassle. The first time we asked for one, we had to ask THREE times for one. After a lengthy wait, we asked if a supervisor was coming to the phone. In response, the man asked "You want to speak to a supervisor?" Then, we were told Carol would call us within an hour yesterday. We waited two hours and called back. We were fussed at for not waiting the hour. We explained we had waited two hours, twice as long as requested, for her call and asked "What else are we suppose to do?" We have talked to many customer service people regarding this. Many of them did not have a good grasp of English. We have put in a lot of time and effort. All of these people give us a different story and ask us to wait. There is no consistency, just chaos and confusion. Wait 3-5 days, 5-7, 7-10. This has been a very frustrating process.

    We charged this to our debit card. On a tip from a friend, we called our bank this morning to dispute the charge. Suntrust is going to pursue it for us and hopefully we will have our money back shortly. It's a shame Kmart/Sears couldn't step up and resolve the issue for us, but we learned a valuable lesson... do not shop with them again!

    My mom bought my son a pair of Wrangler khakis and sent them to him at college. They was the wrong size. He left the tags on them. When he came home I took them to exchange them for the right size. Kmart would not exchange them. We didn't have a receipt. I would have shopped some while exchanging the pants. I will never go there again period. This is one reason Walmart has taken over. I would have had no problems there.

    I purchased a Kenmore fan on 5/31/17. I didn't open it to assembly until 7/8/17. There were parts missing so I got my receipt to check out the return policy... 30 days. I called the store to see if I could possibly still return/exchange the fan since it was only a week over 30 days. No way.... they said... 30 days is it. And they seemed to say it in delight and offered no other solution for the missing parts. Just told me there was nothing they could do.

    They didn't even refer me to Sears. Well I guess they didn't do that since mostly all of Sears stores are closing. Pretty much like they will probably be closing too. By the way, the person who answered the telephone just said Hello. I thought I had dialed a residence since she didn't say K-Mart. Anyway, the 30 day return policy is pretty bad. It should be longer like most other stores and it should include the option to get a store credit. I would have gladly taken a store credit. The K-Mart store is located at 95th and Pulaski Ave., Oak Lawn, IL 60453.

    I'm writing this review because I read the other ones on here and some just don't make any sense. If you know there's a 30 day policy on returns then yes after 31 days they do not accept it. If you know that is the policy why would they bend the rules for you if it's not a part of the policy? I understand the whole customer satisfaction but some of the reviews are just common sense answers and I ask a customer even agree with them on not accepting it after 30 days. IT'S ON THE RECEIPT PEOPLE. Not a hard concept at all. Stop trying to get things done in your favor. If they bend the rules for you then they have to bend the rules for everyone else and that just defeats the whole purpose of having a policy then. Yes I have had a few bad experiences but I got them resolved.

    I also saw another review about a customer buying pretzel bites with holes in them and a picture attached with the whole top of the wrapper missing. It's very obvious that anyone with common sense would see that the bag was torn before the purchase was made and see holes in the bag and that the pretzel pieces would have fallen out. That was just ridiculous. Whoever wrote that review wrote a lot of nonsense. There was nothing wrong with the way the supervisor responded either if he asked you if you would like to return it. Yes it's 99 cents but what else is he suppose to do. Offer more than you paid for? He also thanked you for making him aware of the situation and that still wasn't good enough.

    Some of you are just ungrateful and want everything done by you. I've worked in retail and I understand their point of view and I am also a customer so I understand both sides. If you all had a store with policies, you wouldn't want anyone bending rules and trying to get any and everything for nothing. Right is right and some of you are just never satisfied with anything. That is all.

I called to find out if they had more curtains in the store so I could go and get them. The Kmart representative put me on hold and went and looked for more curtains. She came back and said am I sure I bought them there because they don't sell that brand at Kmart. I said I am sure. She then put me on hold again and went to look again. She came back in about fifteen minutes and told me the same thing. At that time I told her I was online looking at the curtains that I bought at Kmart that they said they didn't sell. Unfortunately it was the same brand different model. I asked her if she could go to her computer and look at what I was looking at in the hope of resolving my problem so I could finish with my windows. She said, "I have to help a cashier" and she would be right there.

    Apparently, Kmart's return policy is 30 days. I tried to return something 31 days after purchase and was denied. I had my receipt and item was unused and not damaged. I live 30 minutes away from Kmart so I am not always nearby to shop. I can understand not giving cash back but not be given at least a store credit is unacceptable service. If I was given my refund I would have proceeded to shop in the store and would have spent way more than my $17 return! I will happily shop at Target or any of the other hundreds of store I can choose from. I will be taking my business elsewhere. In this competitive market Kmart needs to reevaluate their policies!!

On 5/8/2017, an attempt was made to deliver the grill un-assembled. The delivery driver told me "It will take too long to put it together". I told him my wife paid to have the grill assembled at delivery. He responded, "I asked my supervisor if the grill needed assembly before delivery, he said no". I asked the driver when could the grill be assembled and delivered? He told me, "Tomorrow". The grill never left the back of the delivery truck. It was as close as we got to receive our order.

    Since that day we have called every number, talked to several people, sent numerous emails, left VM with Kmart in an effort to ascertain information of the status of our grill to no avail.

    Years ago Sears hawked the comical but hypocritical axiom "The customer is always right!" For the longest time I not knew Kmart was a SHC subsidiary and was the retailer closing all those stores. Their Return policy is actually cruel. Kohl's is a bright day to spiritless night's difference, and they will take your returns any time or reason. Anyhow, I can't verify other Kmarts' bleak & black but the one I've tripped into many times enough was notably decrepit, mainly morale and happy factor wise. They got the price wrong again, still no POI, not even the check we could read the screen! Then I was double scanned. There's gotta be a better system for getting through the price override stickers because so much time is wreaked.

    The bad attitudes and catty are blaring there, employees on some temperamental interference. We noticed it. We also said "no thank you" to all these memberships but were still pressed. Gee, you know, Kmart has some stellar deals but siphons the good they could get out of their name tags at the saddest (over) work. There is the stiffest most unsmiling CS gal, the last petition (felt like such a reduced act) to get a financial transaction was enough to expel any person. Felt like I was some kind of a burden.

    I was mattress shopping and decided to go to Kmart. I stopped in two locations yesterday evening. The Constitution drive location and Fordham drive both are in Virginia Beach. The 1st location when I was in the electronics department asking about the mattress leasing. The clerk stated that they don't do leasing on mattress though they have little signs posted on the mattress that say layaway, lease or credit providing ways to purchase. Though I didn't bother to question him cause it seemed that he was more interested in fixing shelves than attending to customers needs. On my way out I did see a manager and asked her about the leasing. She stated pretty much the same thing that they don't offer leasing on mattresses.

    So I decided to try location #2 though this time there was nobody in electronics department to talk to. The only sales clerk I saw was in shoes hanging signs. When I asked her a question, she abruptly answered with a what like I was disturbing her. So I left that department, grabbed the few items that I needed, and headed to check out.

    I find it pretty shameful that with the economy being the way it is and with people needing jobs. Those few that I dealt with had no desire to do their jobs. I am extremely disappointed in the service I received. This is not Kmart that I have been doing business with for years. Along with the merchandising if you are going to offer lease agreement for certain products I suggest that you have better signage and to train associates on the programs at hand.

About a week after Christmas, I tried to exchange it for a larger size, and was told I could not do it without a receipt, even though ATTENTION is clearly a Kmart brand, and they had the larger jacket in stock. My sister-in-law finally located the receipt for me, and I tried again to exchange the coat, but, by now, the larger size was gone. This time, I was told they would not take back the coat, for exchange or store credit, because it was past the 30 day limit. Most stores extend that for holiday purchases, but Kmart. The coat was bought on 12/9/16, on a receipt totaling close to $400 in purchases. Is Kmart that close to being bankrupt that it can afford to piss off a customer dropping that kind of money in their store?

There was no acting management present and we really didn't want to make a big deal out of it so we continued shopping and went home afterwards.

    First I just want to state that the communication between Sears and the third party delivery company they use is seriously lacking. Kmart/Sears, failed to communicate with the delivery company that I purchased premium delivery service that pays for the item to be brought up to my apartment and brought inside. The total delivery cost was nearly $230 and the futon was $299. Clearly I am going to have expectations when I am paying this much for delivery, basically that it will in fact happen. It did happen but after a week of phone calls, unwanted stress, feeling like I had to defend my purchase of delivery service and so on. At one point, the delivery company initiated a three-way call with Kmart/Sears to verify that I had in fact purchased the premium delivery service, evidently my insistence was not enough.

    It was at that time that the Kmart representative made a long speech stating that I in fact did purchase the premium delivery service and I did not have the energy to interrupt her so she finished after about 3-4 minutes. All I could say in response was, "I know. I've been telling everyone this for the last hour and a half that we have been on the phone." The representative from the delivery company said that when Sears sends them the delivery information, they are supposed to indicate premium delivery and they did not indicate for my purchase. It was unbelievable to me that a large corporation would have this type of flawed communication system with a third party vendor especially when the charge is so great. An extra $100 to have it brought up to my apartment. I will let you draw your own conclusions. As for me, I will never purchase online from Kmart/Sears again in order to avoid the hassle and stress.

They won't even tell me the amount that is processing for refund, probably because the amount is zero. This is basically fraud.

    I order during Cyber Monday and it was stated that if you ordered from the Cyber items you would only have to spend $30.00 for free shipping. I did that between the two stores and my order came to over $45.00. I ended up paying over $60.00 as both stores charged shipping. Then the Sears package did not have an item in the box that I ordered. It was for $8.99. I called Sears and the woman said she would send it out but it would cost me another $5.00+ for shipping. I told her never mind, just cancel the items and return my money to my account. She said it would be about 3 to 5 days. I just got an email today and they said they are returning $6.34 instead of the $8.99 and that it would take 3 to 5 days. I lost over $20.00 on an order that was supposed to be a "Cyber Monday" sale. That is a lot of money. I WILL NEVER EVER DO BUSINESS WITH KMART OR SEARS AGAIN.

    Maybe it does not sound like a lot of money, but it is to me. I am retired and live on a fixed income. I AM VERY UPSET AND ANGRY THE WAY THEY SLEAZE THEIR WAY OF MAKING IT SOUND LIKE A SALE, but cost me even more than the regular price of the items were in the first place. I have always been a loyal customer but no more. I will take my business elsewhere and tell family and friends to do the same!!! I cannot submit a receipt as all I have is the print out with the prices. I did this transaction on the internet, but you do not get a receipt. It is however, on my bank account which I can mail to you. I do not want to send any information of that nature to you on the internet. Thank you.

    I recently ordered several things via Kmart's site that came from both their warehouse Sears. I placed my order, and their system charged my order by the location it was coming from--making about 6 or 7 separate charges for the SAME order. Naturally, my bank SUSPENDED my account due to suspicious activity after they charged me five times. I had to call my bank twice and sit on customer service chat with three different Kmart reps for about two HOURS, and in the end all they could tell me was "try your order again in 24 hours" after trying to charge my card again about 10 times. No apology for this. No nothing.

    I could have gone to buy groceries after placing my order and my debit card would have been declined because of this company's screw-up if my bank hadn't notified me of what happened. Customer service reps on chat obviously didn't speak English as even a passable second language. Will never shop with this lumbering corpse of a business anymore and for good reason.

    I ordered stuff online on black Friday. They offered free shipping. Half of my items were shipped. The other half never left Kmart facility! Now they can't ship to store for pickup because it's been 8 days. Now they want to refund and start the process all over again, but what about the sale price? They also left the apartment number off the shipping label which means it needs to be picked up through UPS! Nothing about the dealings with this company has been pleasant and just know that when you order through the website, you are only MAYBE purchasing something since they don't guarantee that they will ship it out.

    I purchased a ride on battery operated train for my son's birthday at Kmart.com. I knew I shouldn't have ordered from here because I have had many issues with past orders, but this was one of 2 stores selling this item. So next day I received the email showing it has shipped. Couple of days later I get a tiny box from Kmart. The shipping label is correct but inside is a Christmas decoration and not my son's gift. So I look at the packing list and it is someone else's order/receipt. I immediately call customer service and the rep wasn't even apologetic even after explaining my order is a gift. She could not explain where my item was and all I could do was be sent a return shipping label and be responsible for dropping it off at UPS. I was told that I can have a second train shipped but I needed to give them my credit card for a second charge.

    Needless to say I refused. For my refund I have to wait for this other person's order to be returned and received to them and then I have to wait 5-7 days. I am now out almost $100 for the time being and my son will have a late birthday gift. Not to mention this other person will also not receive their order, which I received and had to return. And of course when I tried to give the rep the other person's order number so that they know this order was sent to the wrong address I was told that it wasn't necessary and really no reason to care about it.

    I made an online order which contained big and small items so I opted for the 5 minute in vehicle service. I received an email stating my order was ready for pick up. I arrive at the store and they said the order is in, but no items were listed. I showed them my email itemized receipt. They wrote down the items and had a staff member look for my order in their "pick up" compartments. She barely looked through the items and went about her business again without communicating to anyone that she stopped looking for the items.

    I spoke with another rep that I thought came to help me, but he just happened to be another employee aimlessly wandering around. He said he would help and I never saw him again. I pulled aside four other staff members at different times asking for help and nothing happened. They all pretended to work, but hid away somewhere without telling anyone that I was still there waiting for my order.

    Half an hour in I got fed up and called the online customer service line to get my items shipped. The first rep tried to call the store, but no one was picking up the phone as I physically stood there and watched them ignore the ringing phone. I requested to speak to a manager from the online service and that case manager was no help either. She kept stating everything looked clear on her end. Sure it's clear for her, but it was also clear to me as I physically stood in the store with no help. She stated she needed to talk to anyone in the store to help resolve my issue, but I was told to stand in line again when I requested the customer service rep to speak with their fellow customer service rep on the phone. In store and online services failed me.

    I had to pull the manager, Chantele, aside multiple times to remind her that the staff she delegated to had not brought up one single item. She eventually pulled the items herself and retrieved my information stating she would credit me through my rewards program for the inconvenience. She took down my order number, phone number, and name on a piece of paper, but stated she didn't need my reward membership. Clearly she was just using this excuse to clear my order because I have not seen any credit to my account. This is the Hayward, CA store. But I would avoid KMART in general along with their affiliate, SEARS, because not only did they fail in store, they failed online, and on the phone.

    I order online Wrist Blood Pressure Meter on Nov 10. I was able to use $15.00 in reward points, so my purchase price was only $8.58. Pretty minimal compared to what I was buying. That was until I received notification that my order will be ready to pick up by Nov 21 at Sears Store close to my home. I was at Sears on the expecting delivery date but my surprise was that they do not have any item for me, also I was told that my order does not exist. I contacted customer service to be told that my order was delivered by UPS since Nov 15 at Sears Store. I went back to Sears with the print information from Kmart where state that the delivery was received by one of the employee, but I get the same response that they do not have any delivery.

    I purchased 3 items online (newsboy hat and two pair of boots) for a bargain price of $18.77. I was able to use $15.00 is reward points, so my purchase price was pretty minimal compared to what I was buying. That was until I received notification that the hat was out of stock. However, when I received notification that my boots were ready to pick-up the price I was paying was the same amount-$18.77. What happened to the hat charge that should of been taken off? I contacted customer service to be told the hat was out of stock and my debit card had been charged the full amount.

    Okay, I already know this since I received more than one email giving me the breakdown. When I asked why I was being charged the same amount, all I was told is that was the amount of my order. No, that was the amount with the hat and that item was not in stock. I guess they don't allow their representatives to think outside the box and actually give customer service, so that was a lost cause. I'm in the process of cancelling my order, and I told Kmart they were stealing money out of my account because the amount they took was for all the items I purchased.

I get having a policy in place, but to not be willing to override it for a loyal customer for going 2 days over? I will never shop Kmart or Sears again. Walmart treats their customers better!

    The boots still have the tags on them, I have the receipt and the original box. No damage to anything. I think it's ridiculous that a store won't help out their customers. And they won't give me a phone number to anyone higher up than their customer service reps. I will be writing bad reviews EVERYWHERE on this chain. There is no good reason to refuse to take back a return other than citing store policy. Policies can be overridden and should be to keep a loyal customer happy. I have the option to go to a Walmart much closer to home but choose to go to Kmart due to all the crazies in Walmart. Not anymore.

I went to Kmart to pick it up and when I arrived home realized they had given me someone else's order! I drove back to the store. I have young kids so this is not an easy feat for me. The cashier was completely unapologetic, began blaming me for not checking in the store. A simple apology would have gone a long way. He progressed into the rudest behavior I have ever encountered in retail - and I used to be a retail manager. I let him know his behavior was unacceptable and I would be complaining about him to corporate. Another worker nearby began huffing about me and how she was going to beat me etc... The manager came but he was a trembling little man who seemed terrified of these thuggish employees. In no way was he qualified to be their manager.

    I contacted Kmart corporate and they never apologized. They never rectified the situation or took disciplinary action against their employee. So I concluded that they obviously do not value my business, took the hint and have not shopped there in the last year and a half. It is not secret why they are going out of business. They are horrible, hire lazy incompetent, rude employees and don't value their customers.

    I have purchased 17 pairs of Basic Edition's women's ankle denim jeans made in Bangladesh from several Kmarts. They had a bad odor to them so I washed them before I wore them. When I wore them, my body broke out in a bad rash. The odor got worse after I washed them. I washed them a total of 26 times and hung them on the clothesline. I used Tide, OxyClean, vinegar, and Arm and Hammer baking soda. None of the products could get rid of the odor. I kept 1 pair and took the rest back to the store.

    Three weeks later as my friend drove me in her car, both she and I experienced burning eyes, nose, and throat. Even the sales clerk at one of the Kmarts had the same symptoms when I returned the jeans to her. I observed the jeans I returned were back on the shelf to be sold to other customers. I could tell they were because I had restapled the tag on with 2 staples. I kept 1 pair, my friend had them tested and it came out positive for formaldehyde. When I had the jeans in a pile in my house, the odor burned my throat. I took them out to the garage to store them and my throat no longer burned. I hope to God you could stop these pants from being sold. How dare these jeans be sold to poor innocent people to endanger their health.

    Whynotleaseit is a horrible scam, a predatory lender. Don't use. It's not a lease to own, and some items you cannot return so you lease an item for 18 months after which you must buy the furniture/item at an inflated price or continue for the rest of your days to lease. After the first 5 months you can do a buyout but again it's an inflated price. Don't get caught up with this company. You end up paying $2,700 for an item only worth $700!

    I've been dealing with this nightmare for weeks. Everything from the website cart to the real issue of my refund. I will skip most details and just tell you that I did place an order. I only got part of that order. Here comes the confusing part. They also sent me someone else's order. So in order to receive my refund I must send back the other person's shirt. (SO I HAVE SOME RANDOM LADY'S SHIRT AND SHE APPARENTLY HAS MINE. KMART SHIPPING MIXED THEM UP.) Okay, no big deal but not my mistake.

    When you call, the only thing they care about is fixing their mistake. No refund for you. Just get that $5.99 shirt back to Kmart. Get this, at my expense. My drive time. My printer. My ink. My paper. Oh yes you guess it, my postage. If I don't, no refund for the shirt that I ordered that I never received. Yeah... no. This concept is mind blowing to Kmart. That I had no intentions of sending it back without a prepaid label. I did finally get one after 2 days of phone calls and 2 45 of my life I'll never get back. But I still have to get it to UPS somehow. I live 1 hour from any city. Again, receiving someone else's shirt I did not order is not my problem. This is not customer service this is Kmart taking care of Kmart. I was told that they would give me $7.00 of credit on my Sears thank you card for a UPS pick up. I had to laugh at the rep, never will I use Sears or Kmart again. This is just the icing on the cake, there was so much more.

    Items changing price after checkout, items dropping after being put into your cart, unidentified shipping charges after you meet the free amount. It goes on. And just to add salt to the wound, the instructions were very clear to return shipping with the kind of packing I could use even down to the line and width of tape I could use. Kinda picky when I'm doing them the favor. You're welcome. And BTW, still haven't seen my refund. Just shop elsewhere. I completely understand why Kmart is going out of business.

Spent 2 hours on phone with Kmart customer service. No help and no satisfaction.

    Went online while with Kmart customer service and same jacket that was canceled was still being offered in all sizes and was able to place item in cart for delivery as though I were ordering. Again was told that it was not available but had not yet been updated that it was out of stock. Now I will be returning 1 jacket as they would not send a comparable item for substitution of canceled jacket. Kmart reps told me to return the shipped jacket and order two more if I wanted as BOGO was still on promotion. Wow, No Kmart for me ever again.

Not only did I wait beyond the 5 min guarantee for my pick up (actually twice the time) I was handed a flimsy bag that was awkwardly stuffed with my order. When I asked to inspect the bag the associate cowardly walked away. Upon removing the items from the bag to my surprise it appeared as if the merchandise was dragged across the floor and covered in some type of animal feces. I was floored! These items belonged in a dumpster not posted online for a bargain shopper like me to waste time adding to cart and hiking to pick it up in person since delivery was unavailable.

    When I waited what felt like another 10 min for the associate to verify additional inventory I asked to return fearing the worst and already furious with the passive attitude of the associates only to be told that I would have to go to another register to process a return. I left the items with the associates at the register, I refused to waste any more of my time over this ridiculous situation.

    On May 19, 2016 I bought several items at the Kmart store in Honesdale PA which is over a hour from my home in NYS. I had a blouse previously (Jaclyn Smith) that fit perfectly - a large. When I returned home with the new one, it was the same size but was too small. I was not able to return there until July 3 or July 5. I was told they would not give me a refund or allow an exchange because it was over 30 days. I have done a lot of shopping at this store and like the Jaclyn Smith design and colors. This item was not on sale and I would have probably bought a few more items that day if I was able to exchange it. It's not my fault that the item was mismarked for size. I will no longer shop at Kmart. It was one reason that I did shop in Honesdale PA and now other stores will also lose my business because of this policy. This store was always clean, staff was efficient and friendly.

    I had a layaway at a Kmart in Ohio that closed down. The staff said my refund would be mailed to me. That was in May, it is now mid-July. When I call customer service, I am told that Sears Holding handles that. When I call them, I am told there is nothing they can do and that it has been sent to the District Manager in May. This is $200, not a lot to some, but still my money. I have 7 grandchildren and both me and my daughters have done a lot of business at Kmart/Sears and that is going to change. The customer service is very poor and I am still out $200.

    I purchased a 4-pack of life vest on June 15, 2016. Later in the month while cleaning out my garage I discovered that I already had life vest and didn't need the ones I purchased at Kmart. I took them back to Kmart on July 17, 2016 and was told that they had a 30 day return policy (I was there 2 days too late). Even though I had the receipt and the package of vest was unopened and unused they refused to refund my money or to even give me a store credit for the purchase. There was simply no discussing it with anyone. I was told the computer/register would not even acknowledge the sale since it had been over 30 days since the purchase.

    For someone like me that lives over 25 miles from the nearest big town, it is unreasonable to think that 30 days is enough time. Their return policy is ridiculous. No wonder when I drive by any Kmart (and that's what I'll be doing from now on) there are very few cars in the parking lot. Even though this was a small purchase of under $35.00, I will never again step foot into Kmart. Goodbye KMart. We will soon see you closing your doors for good.

    For a long time I shopped at KMart and enjoyed doing that, but after about 10 visits, they decided to play games with me and DECLINE my valid Visa Debit Card and they knew I had adequate funds in the bank as I showed them my most current bank receipts plus my current month's bank statement. I'm a very honest person and would NEVER cheat anyone and I ONLY use my debit card when I have sufficient funds to cover all of my store purchases of course. This was very embarrassing for me on all my visits when I attempted to purchase things from that store. I refused to go to my bank and get cash just to pay them. I don't like to write checks for a number of reasons. I don't have any credit cards either so that was not an option.

    I had shopped at my local KMart at least 20 times and then they started to REFUSE my valid debit card and I tried to tell them I have sufficient funds in my checking account to cover all of my purchases. I even suggested calling my local bank to let them KNOW I had money in my account. They didn't want to hear any of this and they were very rude, snotty and hostile about dealing with me. I will NEVER shop at KMart for this reason no matter what. I learned my lesson.

My friend was also harassed by an employee named Victor. My friend was underage and Victor was insistent and hitting on him and attempting to show him his privates.

    Here's the deal - I purchased a bathing suit and shorts for my 14-year-old as we were going on a cruise in May. My husband and I were getting married on one of the islands. Before we left, my daughter tried on the clothes but they did not fit. We did not have time to return them between planning ceremony and working 2 jobs. Once things settled down after returning, I attempted to return the items. I have the receipt, the clothes are immaculate with original receipts still on them. Because it is over 30 days, they will not accept the return regardless if you have a receipt or not, and if you do not have a receipt, don't even bother going to the store even if it is only.

    Furthermore, the item was overly priced. $30 for a bathing suit top, it's not Victoria's Secret. Really Kmart - this is the way you want to treat your customers. What if this was birthday present or Xmas gift??? I am sure I am not the only one who starts early Xmas shopping. Buyer beware. There is too much risk shopping at this store.

    In the spring of 2015 I needed a lawnmower and made the mistake of buying one through Kmart's lease program. I don't have much money as a single mom so I chose a basic model that was marked at $206.99. The process was convoluted and confusing and nobody seemed to know how to do the paperwork or ring up the purchase. Then AFTER I had done the paperwork, they told me I would have to make the first payment right then. I just about walked out but a second manager came over and talked me into going through with the purchase.

    I missed the timing to pay off at the designated time and when I called to pay it off late last year was told that I had missed the last opportunity to do so. I just did the math and by the time they stop taking payments out after October 2016, I will have paid $621 over 18 months for the $206.99 mower. As included, you can see that the contract is very misleading on the front page as to payment schedule, etc. I guess all the fine print which is full of confusing and contradictory terms tells you this but it doesn't seem like this should be legal, especially not being able to pay it off at any point. Thank God the mower is still working. Never, ever use this program!!! Customer service 0 stars, website 1/2 star, and it is an absolute robbery as far as I am concerned. Based on this program and my other experiences at Kmart, I give less than 0 stars to the whole company!

    (Footnote: after printing and reviewing the paperwork, I noticed a statement that said after the 18 months I would STILL have to purchase the mower. I called them again to question that and this time the CSR gave me the buyout option which during the last call I was not given. As a result I am paying the mower off and will have then paid $511.29 for the $206.99 item. A very costly lesson indeed. It remains to be seen if the transaction clears properly and will show the contract fulfilled.)

I put $30 down. I knew cancelling the layaway would cost me a $10 layaway fee. Because that and only that was explained. I was charged $10.70 layaway fee and $19.30 cancel fee which took the whole $30. It wasn't even explained to me prior to completing the cancelled transaction. I was told this while waiting on my??? and cashier telling me "thank you". Had I been told beforehand I would have left it on layaway and tried another way to come up with money to get it.

    I was shopping at Kmart in Steger, Illinois on February 8th, 2016. I found a cub spring jacket that my husband would love so I purchased it early for his birthday on March 14 to ensure that they still had his appropriate size. I used my Sears charge card to pay. I also bought him 2 other sports shirts as well. When I gave it to him on his birthday it was too short in length, so I went to possibly exchange for another size or get some more T-shirts instead. I was told I only had 2 weeks to return the jacket after purchase! Totally ridiculous. I assumed your return policy would be either 60 or 90 days with a receipt just like any other stores in the area. Wrong! I said "Then can I have store credit to do more shopping here?" She tells me no. I ask "Well what if I didn't have receipt could I get store credit?" She says no again. I ask "What if it was gift send to him with no receipt, could I make the return?" She says "We don't take anything back without a receipt."

    There have been many of my friends who had the same experience as me and won't be shopping there anymore. Now if stores are closing very swiftly as stated in the news, then it would seem to me you need to address this quickly or this store will be the next to fold under! Then I had a friend tell me that what they told me was incorrect, "You have 30 days not 2 weeks." Which it does state on bottom of the receipt. I know that it was 36 days when I went to make the return. But I am now stuck with a jacket that he can't wear and am now out of pocket 44.99 plus tax. If the policy were different and I could've gotten store credit and still spent the money in the store therefore you wouldn't be losing a sale! I am very disappointed. I have shopped at this particular store for 13 years. I recently paid off my Sears card also in this store. But I will not ever shop at this store anymore or any other Kmart for that matter.

    This is a very late posting, but ever since my frustrating Christmas shopping experience with KMart and continuing getting their annoying emails, I just felt compelled to write. Over the 2015 holiday, I purchased three plush Minion dolls. Received them, no problem. My husband asked if I could order three more to give out as gifts to some friends of our children. So I ordered three more. That is where the problem started. I saw the driver of our package leave a box by our gate. Walked up to get the box, opened it, looked inside, and there were only two out of the three Minion dolls inside. I called KMart, after figuring out who to call, and finally got a customer service rep that I could barely understand. She was very polite, but it was very frustrating as a customer because trying to get another item shipped was so ridiculously complicated that you think to yourself, "why is this so difficult?"

    Because I originally bought three plush toys, I was able to get free shipping. They could not send me out the replacement doll without cancelling my order and reordering, but this time I would have to pay the shipping because I did not qualify for free shipping, and also I would have to giving my credit card information over the phone. Well I was certainly not going to do that! Kmart’s customer service is outsourced like so many other companies. As a person that use to always shop at KMart even when I was a child shopping with my mother, it was as American as baseball and apple pie. Now, it's a joke!

    I have NEVER dealt with a well named business with this much frustration and complication over something that should have been an easy straightforward solution. It should have been a "no brainer" solution that should have made the customer (me) felt valued. After spending too much time over the phone communicating with someone that I did not understand, but was trying her best, I told her that I was not going to give her my credit card over the phone and that I would just buy it someplace else. She was able to automatically credit my credit card and the credit did show up on my statement so that was good.

    Bottom line, if you make an online purchase, and if there happens to be a problem with your order, don't expect a quick and easy fix. And because of that, shopping at KMart is not worth my valuable time. There are so many other reputable companies that I am happy to give my business to. Unfortunately KMart is no longer one of those companies! Bring jobs back home to America!

    I bought a pair of shoes from Kmart. After trying them on after I had worked I felt I needed a 1/2 size larger. I was leaving for an extended vaca so I thought I would exchange them in a store by airport... Wrong, it is closed. So I try the other store. Closed also. So I decide OK, I'll just wait till I get back home. Long story short it is 31 days when I try to do exchange. No WAY I AM I getting a 1/2 size larger!! I even called corp & was told it was my fault that I did not know how to read a receipt...

    So the moral of this story is Kmart & Sears are in the death stage. They will suck every dime possible. Do not care about customer satisfaction at all. If they have to alienate a 50 year customer to hold on to a $15 sale. It's a done deal when your corp policy states "We do not care that you need a shoe 1/2 size larger than you bought. No returns or exchanges after 30 days." This is a pair of shoes that are still being sold, I have a receipt, & the shoes are still attached together with a tag.

    First I must start with, I am totally disappointed with the experience I have had with Kmart/Sears. I was out of state shopping in one of your Kmart store and came across this absolutely gorgeous Adam Levine Red and Black checkered twill shirt. What started off exciting has quickly turned into horror. I was so excited to receive my shirt, I literally waited for the UPS delivery by my door. When I opened the package, it was a Lace Pink Twill Scarf, cute but not what I order. My feeling were so hurt. The next day I called the customer service and basically nothing was resolved. I could barely understand the rep and ended up paying another 44.00 for another shirt. I waited again, only to find out the day of the delivery the rep order the shirt in Blue. I called the customer service again, they then tell me they did not place the order and once I receive the package to return the product back.

    I am so very disappointed because this shirt is everything and then some. For the lack of care and concern of their customers is totally horrifying. I repeated to the customer service rep, "It is not about the money. It's about the product." I will never order or step into another Kmart and/or Sears for that matter and I am telling everyone I don't about this experience. Again not only was my order wrong the first time but it happened a second time and Kmart/Sears is still telling me to return the item and return again. Shame on Kmart/Sears.

    I recently placed an online order for 3 items. One was a Cars Toddler bed. I used a coupon which would earn me $10 in points for making a purchase of $100. My subtotal was $102.97. It popped up that I would get $11.56 in points for the order. The next day UPS shows up. (Still baffled by this). I got a wooden Cars Toddler Table and Chairs set. I am yet still amazed that anyone could confuse the two items. Nice hiring job SHC. How anyone can do that is really amazing. My invoice slip clearly stated a Toddler Bed.

    So, I call the customer service line. The lady's accent was so thick, I couldn't understand her. I explained what happened not once but 5 times. After this 24 min conversation and asking for a supervisor 7 times, she finally transferred me. By this time I was even more upset. Not only did they send the wrong item which he will not have in time for his 2nd Birthday, but now they have wasted 24 minutes of my time and I asked 7 times for a supervisor. So, again I explained what happened after complaining about the rep wasting my time, and asking 7 times to speak to a supervisor. That was just poor KMART customer service.

    The supervisor refunded me for the bed, told me to keep the wrong item, and was going to refund me $11.56 in points. Since they had to refund me the item, it would drop me below the $100 purchase, I told her. She said, "Don't worry, I will take care of those points for you. You are correct in that." 48 hours later, no points. So, I got on chat. (Wish I could paste it here. You would be amazed.) I told the rep the problem about the wrong item, the refund, that now all I needed were my points.

    I said, "I purchased 3 items from Kmart.com. A Cars Toddler bed, and two boxes of diapers. I spent $102.97. Used a coupon for $10 back in points. Kmart.com sent me a Cars table and Chairs set, instead of the Cars bed. I was already refunded for the bed, I never got the promised points. Can you please place the $11.56 on my account for I can't get them due to the bed being refunded. It puts me below the $100 purchase requirement."

    The rep asked if the purchase was in store or online... OMG... REALLY?? Did they not read what I wrote?? I'm sorry that Kmart.com written out twice escaped them. I had to reply, "I said KMART.COM, that would mean I bought them online. Besides how am I going to go to the store myself, and mistake a bed for a table and chairs set?" So, after repeating all the facts again on this chat, and they still didn't get that it was an online order, I asked for a supervisor. The rep asked me, "So you bought it at the store or online?"

    I was just dumbfounded as to where they find these people. Told him a 2nd time, "KMART.COM... YES I BOUGHT IT ONLINE!! Supervisor please 2nd request." The rep told me that my points did not post cause I was not logged into my account. That he would forward the request to the shopyourway department to add the points. This is too much. I told him already that I was logged in, used a shopyourway coupon. It showed I would get my points. Since they had to refund me, the points would have to be added manually.

    I know how they work, having worked for SHC. "Oh, ok. So you want to repurchase the Bed?" The rep responded. "What?? What does that have to do with you giving me the promised points??" I had to ask. He made no sense. Finally, a supervisor. Yeah, now this will get done quickly. (So, I thought... Lol... I was shocked.) He read chat. "So, you wish to reorder the Cars Toddler bed, Is that right?" Oh no, not again. So I reexplained what happened. Thinking he might not have seen the whole chat. So, he replies, "Your problem is with the Cars Toddler bed, and not the two boxes of Diapers, is that correct?" My response, "Yes. That is correct."

    "So, I see that you were refunded on the Cars bed. Would you like me to help you reorder that today?" This is so insane. I told him, "I will reorder the bed when my refund is fully processed in 3-14 days." He replies, "Well I will be happy to help you reorder the bed now." I am so losing patience... So, I said a 2nd time, "I will buy it again when my refund is fully processed."

    "Well, I can reorder that for you now," said this rep. Lord forgive me, I lost it. My response was, "Did you not read? I said when it was processed I would reorder. I am sure part of your job requirement is to pay attention to details, and reading. I know it is. I used to work for SHC. All I wanted was for you to add points totaling $11.56 for what I would have earned with that coupon and meeting the purchase requirement. What has that got to do with me reordering the bed? You should have shipped to me already instead of a table and chairs set. You have done nothing but waste my time, and the company you work for. I am done with this 56 minute chat and still you did not resolve the problem. Goodbye!!!"

    So, I hit end chat and sent a copy to my email. Gave them the poor rating they deserved and told them in the note part about how useless this was. That all they accomplished was annoying customers by not reading, understanding, and resolving the issue in minutes not an hour. That they wasted my time and SHC's time and money.

    So, then I called the customer service number and after explaining the problem and telling her about my headache, she gave me $20.00 in points and sent a report to those who can make sure the ones in chat get handled correctly for all the aggravation. She also told me how nice it was speaking with someone who understood how the point system works. That I know it better than most employees do. Seriously, though SHC you need to hire more qualified people.

I phone the branch being told to come in on Friday 11th. I bring it back Friday the 11th being told the bike guy is attending that day. I waited four hours no bike guy, get told I'd be contacted end of the day. I received no phone call. I then phoned Saturday 12th to be told that they will get someone to contact me on Monday. I received no phone call Monday. I phone Tuesday the 13 to be told the bike guy never attend on Friday 11th and he will attend this Friday 18th so I waited.

    I then phoned this morning to discuss the progress of my bike to be told it's a flat tire. I then go to the store to discuss what's going on. They have lost my bike? And that they are sorry and have arranged for a new bike to be sent to my house, so 9 days have passed since the original purchase of the faulty product, which has now cost me over 400 dollars in transport costs for a 129 dollar bike. So I have spent 529 dollars on a faulty bike that I haven't even risen yet. I could have gone to any bike shop and purchased a new bike and ridden it home the same day. When talking to your manager in store, he then tells me I could have got the bike replaced last Friday 11th. I got told by one of his staff on Friday the 11th that they could not do this until their bike guy has had a look at the bike that clearly had rust on the front on the bike and two faulty wheels (warped, bent).

    The manager then asked me to identify said person. I could remember the person and this wasn't helping to resolve the issue. He seemed more interested in punishing the employee than resolving my issue which cost me 60 more dollars in transport to and from the shopping center, so after 589 dollars, 9 days I still don't have the bike I purchased or knowledge of when the bike with be delivered. I require some sort of explanation to why this is allowed and I want compensation for this atrocity of failure to provide a simple transaction into an absurd amount of time and money.

    So disappointed we will not be buying again from Kmart due to my daughter receiving Christmas gifts after Christmas, then it is 30 miles one way to get to a KMART store to return items that didn't fit to find out that she was past their 30 day policy and could not even get an in-store credit. We are not wealthy people and cannot just drive to Jackson every day, plus other issues. She at least hoped to get an in-store credit so she could get things they could use, but NO.

    They are rude as well when you go in to return and tell you that is their policy and whoever "HE" is will not move on that policy. We went to other stores, much larger and nicer that have a much different outlook, and why we will spread the word on Kmart's crazy no return, no in-store credit after 30 days, and I am sure like most of us, you cannot take that chance on not being able to get returned in their 30 days.

    I went online and ordered a Summer Escapes pool. The filtration system is in the side of the pool. When I got there to pick it up, what they sold me was a Bestway pool that doesn't have the filtration system in the side of the pool. They told me it was linked to that pool and they did not have the Summer Escapes pool in the 18 X 48. I went on the website and wrote a review about false advertising and they took the pool off the website. Not to mention we drove 30 miles because it was the only store that had the pool we were looking for! Thinking about taking the piece of crap back to them since it will not work with our filtration system. It was definitely false advertising.

    I did get to talk to the store manager at the Elkview, WV Kmart. He took all the information and told me that the Customer Service Employee should have caught the error, and if he hadn't, the Front End Manager should have made it right. He proceeded to give me $10 in points on my SYW card to use my next trip in and apologized for my experience. He was a very good person to talk to. It always pays to pursue the errors and make them right. Thank you.

    Original Review: Feb. 17, 2016

    I recently purchased a pair of Denim Capri’s from Kmart in Elkview, WV that had been marked down from $15.99 to $7.99. I had purchased several items that day and asked the clerk Brianna if I had any SYW points available to use. She looked it up and I had $8.58, so I used that amount. A few days later I was looking at my receipt and I had been charged full price for the Capri’s and $7.04 of my $8.58 had been used on that price. I called the store and was told to bring in the receipt for a refund.

    Today I went to the store, went to the service desk and explained to the clerk, Robert, what had happened, and this is their solution for the overcharge... Cash refund of $4.75 and a refund of SYW points of $3.52! I was overcharged $8.00 cash, but even the front end manager said he had no authorization to give me back my $8.00. Kmart kept $3.25 + tax that I paid the store. This is so wrong to be treated this way. I asked for my receipts back, and tomorrow I am contacting the store manager, and if he or she cannot give me my $$ back, maybe corporate, if I can find them, will listen to my problem.

    I went shopping with my 14 year old son who left my side briefly to look for a baseball glove. After I checked out and paid for our goods, I was approached by Daniel, their surveillance intelligence guy in charge. He told me that "two of his people saw my son take a pair of headphones from the headphone dept" and asked my son to just return it, while pointing at my son's headphones. I calmly explained to Daniel, that the headphones plugged into my son's iPhone was his and showed him the bite marks our puppy made on the visibly used iPhone brand headphones. Daniel showed me an empty no name generic brand headphone package and said that two of his employees saw my son pick up that specific package and put it back down in a secluded area. My son then emptied his pockets and shook out his shorts and I patted him down and of course there were no headphones apart from his, on him.

    I asked the surveillance guy to please check his cameras and we waited for him to return. After less than 3 minutes, he returned and stated that he saw my son on the camera, but he did not see him conceal anything. He said that he just wanted to make me aware as the parent and told me to have a nice day. Being an educator that deals with deviant behavior every single day, I proceeded to question my child, who repeatedly confirmed his innocence. I left the store, physically searched my son again and unsatisfied with the way KMART's security accused my child, returned to question the so-called witnesses. At first, I was told that two employees witnessed my son pick up a pack of headphones, then it boiled down to one employee in the camera room. When I questioned an actual employee who was physically stocking inventory in the electronics dept where the headphones were, she quickly stated that she never saw my son in that area.

    When I questioned the surveillance employee, she stated that she did not see him pick up the headphone package, but she saw him running down the aisle by the headphones and she saw him drop something from the hand. The story had changed from him handling the headphones to him dropping something in the aisle. At this point, my husband who is also my son's father, had rushed to the store. Again, the story changed and I was told that only the corporate office could give permission for us to see what was on the cameras. I was given an incorrect number for the corporate office and finally when I got consumer solutions dept, the issue was escalated to level 1. Even after the manager Tracey was sent an email, asking for her assistance from consumer solutions, she refused to assist and the issue was escalated to level and supposedly sent to the district manager, who has yet to contact me.

    My child was racially profiled and wrongfully accused of stealing. This KMART is the only KMART I shop at and these people see me frequently. I also work blocks away and often stop by to grab something a snack. For them to tag and racially profile my child and not give us as parents the decent respect of seeing the alleged surveillance in order to get to the bottom of what really happened or did not happen, is unacceptable. Now finally and sadly, my son knows what it feels like to be discriminated against because of one's gender, race and age. He will no longer feel comfortable walking into any store as his privileged white friends would, thanks to KMART in North Miami Beach store 3613.

    Against my better judgement I ordered a stove online. It was the one I wanted and it was a great price and they were going to haul my old stove away at no charge and there was free delivery. When I checked out on Thursday February 11, 2016 I was told I would have my stove Friday February 12, 2016. That was not the case. I got a notification from my bank that the payment processed out of my account. Then when I called Friday to get the status no one could find me in the system because I ordered off kmart.com and their reps were looking under sears.com. This morning I went to check my bank account and there were 2 charges for $525.49. One from sears.com and one from kmart.com.

    I called and they couldn't reverse the charges until they sent it to a special department which takes 24 to 48 hours to process and an additional 3-5 days to get my money back. No one could tell me why they charged me twice. After the calls I went into my email where I got a confirmation that they received my payment and I would get my stove Monday, February 15, 2016. So not only did I get charged twice but I still had no stove. This is a horrible company to work with. I learned my lesson the hard way and will never be shopping at Kmart again! Needless to say I canceled my order and will be going to another company to do my business!

    Upon purchasing a product, I was asked if I wanted to buy a Kmart warranty for said item. The device stopped functioning, therefore I took it to Kmart and was told I needed the products box, and was told I had to mail it in. (What's the point of that if every product has a manufacturer's warranty?) So I mailed the product (without the box), received an e-gift card, and subsequently took it to my local Kmart.

    After the employee rang up the items, I proceeded to show them the gift card number and PIN. She stared at it, and asked another worker for help. After a brief moment they proceeded to tell me, "We need the physical card. I THINK you can only use this online." On the website it clearly says you may use the e-gift card at Kmart/Sears, OR kmart/sears.com. My wife felt bad and felt as if she was forced to purchase the items with cash. Afterwards I decided to return the items, and subsequently used the card at kmart.com and requested a store pickup.

    Shopping at Kmart feels as if I am shopping at an advanced thrift shop. Why does this store not have WiFi? They need to catch up! Employees don't even know how to apply a gift card on an order using the numbers/PIN. The reason they received two stars instead of one is the fact that reward and surprise points deducted 10 dollars from my order.

    I have shopped for many years at the Helena KMart, both personally and as a member of the Rotary Club of Helena, which each year works with local schools to identify grade school children who may need clothes. We raise $10,000 to spend at KMart, purchasing $100 worth of clothes for 100 children. Helena Kmart clerks and management are very helpful and supportive, clothes are good value.

    Yesterday, I was in the store and some really horrible music was playing (I don't remember music before). It was loud, heavy beat and a kind of "sizzling" noise. Several of us customers commented on it as we shopped and then saw a couple of clerks working - we mentioned it, asked if it could be turned off. They were very polite, said they didn't like it either, but they couldn't help, that was how it was. I told them my shopping would be cut short; I don't come to a store to listen to music, or if it is playing, it needs to be very much background music.

    I then was in another part of the store, another song (?) was playing and another customer commented, as did I. I was immediately scolded by a very rude clerk being told lots of people like the music and that I was "shopping at the wrong time - all kinds of music is played." I said this is a terrible song, he said "Well, tell that to the Grammys." I then started to leave and he snarled, "well, I like it." I will have to think about going back to that store.

    I had $10 in points coming to me. We stopped at the Kmart #7147 at 22920 State Road 54 in Lutz, Florida. We purchased 3 items of women's clothes and another item. It gave me $7 rather than the $10 but the register and credit card machine locked up and they had to reboot (but 5 cents did get put on our credit card). They had to ring everything up a second time and this time it was only going to give me $5 in points! So we said forget it and walked out of the store. No wonder Kmart is closing if customers are treated this way. We must have stood in line for half an hour while they rebooted and tried to get it back up and running. I'm very disappointed (the shorts fit me really good, I really wanted them). The people in the store were very professional, but they couldn't figure out how to fix our problem. I will NOT recommend it to my friends or family.

So you advertise a service you can only sometimes deliver? Then I was told the person who works in the back didn't show up. HUH? How is this my problem? So, the check cashing policy is subjective and random. I was then told they would use 1's and 5's to cash my 500.00 check.

    I purchased a backpack for my son in July, 2015. Also purchased a year replacement plan. The backpack ripped. We called the customer service and was told it would have to be mailed in, and checked out. Then if they decided it was faulty they would send us a gift card. I explained this was not acceptable as my son needed the back pack for school. So they said it was really not the policy but we could try taking to store so we did.

    I explained to customer service the situation and they called. The little girl did not know what to say to them so I ask to speak to them and yes I got very rude because the lady would not listen to me. She kept telling me "this is your option" - to purchase a backpack send his and they would send a gift card in the amount of original purchase. I told her she wasn't giving me an option. Just kept telling me what I was going to do. I spent over an hour and this is not the first time trying to get this straight. Kmart needs to get back to basics.

    I am 68 years old and shopped at Kmart most of my life. I do not remember any cashier or any sign (readable) posted where I checked out that said I was screwed if I lost my receipt, or if I received a gift (watch) from my family I was stuck. They do have the sign posted at the customer service desk, but who goes there first before shopping. I receive weekly if not daily emails from Kmart but never have I ever received an email telling me if I made a purchase, I was out my money if I did not keep my receipt. I noticed that I am not the only one who has had the same problem. This is a huge problem they have had with many customers. Of course, it is without saying, they have lost my business, my family's business and anyone I can tell in my daily travels.

    I wonder why is it not a fraud on consumers when Kmart goes out of its way not to instruct their cashiers to remind customers as they check out, "lose the receipt and you are stuck." Why do they not say to the customer, "PLEASE KEEP YOUR RECEIPT, THERE ARE NO REFUNDS-CREDITS OR EXCHANGES without it." The reason they do not do it is would alert shoppers of their poor customer service policy and people would think twice about shopping at their stores..

I realize that I wouldn't have enough on my Kmart card and the limit on my card is 250.00. Then I told Mindy please partial tender of $20.00 from my Bank of America debit card which it took right away and the rest on my Kmart card for remaining amount, then Mindy had re ring the items all over again, and to swipe my Kmart card two times and on the third swipe it wouldn't accept my Kmart card. It was denied because registrar froze glitch and had to reboot on check stand for register, so I called card services explaining what happened and Mindy explain to card services what happened about the register.

    I was standing there waiting to slide my card and then finally transaction went through for a new amount 208.21 which included the free points I had and which included in this amount that which 20.00 wasn't included in this amount and don't forget $20.00 was already taken from my debit card which this amount is from the first transaction was $259.31 minus the 20.00 from my debit and remaining 239.21 Mindy voided the first transaction had to re rang my items. I told Mindy please go ahead and just charge the whole amount total $208.21 on my charge card and just refund back the $20.00 to my Bank of America account and she said, "Don't worry. It be reversed back to your account on next business day."

    Well I check the next day as I was assured by Mindy that I will see it, well was not credited back to my account and then I called Kmart, talk to manager Scott and he said he didn't know anything about what happened no record of that $20.00 that needed to be credit back to my account (BofA). I was very upset. No one there knew what had happened and at that time Mindy only gave me the 2nd receipt that shows everything was charge on my Kmart card and then the 1st receipt was voided and nothing wasn't given to me that it was assured that the 20.00 will be back to my bank account like a reversal? Manager Scott said, "Let me check." and he had me on hold for a long time. I called back, talk Scott and we got no resolution to where my 20.00 went and it didn't go back to my bank account.

    I Talk Scott. I felt he didn't believe me and that there was no proof a reversal was done or trace of being returned like it didn't happened because there is no record of that transactions and he told thing they have is the second transaction of 208.21 and last attempt called again another time, talk to Logan, explain what happen and his response. He doesn't know and same answer as Scott gave me. I felt I wasn't getting anywhere and I won't see my 20.00 so I called a Sears/Kmart customers service told them what had happened and gave me a case #3928839. Then I called my bank and told my bank what had happened and they said not to worry and temporarily put 20.00 back to my account and open a claim. I just couldn't believe it that my own bank had to put 20.00 back to my account and not Kmart. Till this day Kmart doesn't know what happen to my 20.00 on December 17, 2015.

    On Jan 14, 2016 went to Kmart to make complaint and ask where did my 20.00 went and the manager Logan doesn't know where and what happened to my 20.00 after I had explain that my bank refund my 20.00 and show manager Logan, "Look at iPhone. Here is my bank account where it shows minus 20.00 from Kmart." and trying to show him on my rewards account shows the debit 20.00. He said that he was sorry and trying to tell me what he think that might have happened that the 20.00 and that's why the bank reimburse the 20.00, I told the manager, "Can you explain to me why wasn't the 20.00 back to my Account? Where did it go? Why didn't Mindy communicate or left a note explaining what happened? That's not cool with that 20.00. Could've pay a bill or feed my kids that day. That's 20.00!". I told Logan.

    I don't trust Kmart now. I have to use cash to make a purchase So all that said and done I left very unhappy and wasn't assured that this was handle professional and satisfied as a loyal customer. That wasn't cool, I don't trust Kmart with my debit card now or even using my Kmart card. I have to use cash to do business and I will not be thinking about shopping at Kmart for my future needs.

Explained that my debit card and bank account had been closed due to fraud activity and the refund could not be issue to that account. Rep told me that it could be issue, I would just have to contact my bank to receive the funds. Explained that was not possible as the account was CLOSED, asked for supervisor. Was passed to a sup who stated the same thing that the money would be issued to a closed account.

    I explained this was impossible that the money would only be bounced back as no one can put money in a closed account. Sup got mad and hung up on me.

They all stated that the issue would be resolved and that there were notes in the system showing my account was closed and "please send a paper check." Jan 12 received email stating credit had been issued to my bank account.

    Jan 13 called and explained everything that happened and asked why credit was sent to a closed bank account, more promises of an issue to be resolved.

SA Jordan (chat) took the order and took my cc info and I was like, “Great I will see my treadmill 12/14 and have Kmart set it up for me."

    After I disconnect from the chat with Jordan I realized I forgot to apply my coupon so I chatted once again with Agnes who was so rude. I asked if my order could have the coupon applied to it and she was like, “What order." I was like, “The order I just placed not even 10 minutes ago with Jordan. What do you mean what order!" She goes, "MA! YOU ORDER WAS CANCELLED HENCE THE SAYING WHAT ORDER?" and I was shocked to hear this from somebody who knows they are being recorded.

    I was like, “Well let’s place the order again." She then started to ask me for my shipping and billing info. I was like, "Agnes nothing has changed in the last 10 minutes, it is the exact thing you have on." Finally she took my cc info AGAIN and I went to bed that night thinking everything was fine. In the morning, I was concerned because my order was 407.00 with tax but my cc was charged 814.00 and I was like that's weird that I am being charged for twice for the merch especially around the holidays. I chatted with another rep Jonas and guess what I heard, "What order, both we have on file for you have been cancelled.” WTF, like there is surely some computer issue getting me my treadmill. So I explained to Jonas everything that had happened and that now I was being charge a 3rd for one item and locking up 1200 dollars of my holiday funds for something I am not even sure is going to processed correctly.

    When Jonas rung me up the order came to 487.00. I asked him why it went up so much and he mentioned the item went off sale today. I flipped out. IDC if it went off sale or not, I deserve the same sale price from the original order. This wasn't my mistake, this was KMART's mistake. So I explained that KMART should be offering some type of accommodation for all the issues I had. Imagine if I didn't call in the next to see if my order was fine. What would have happened on 12-14? I would have been waiting for nothing. Jonas said there was nothing. KMART would be doing for me to keep me a loyal customer and I was shocked that Kmart couldn't do anything. I told Jonas I would pray for him and now I know why there are only 2 KMART's in the area and I would take my business elsewhere.

    Shame on Kmart. I guess as of August 2015 they have implemented a new policy about returns. No matter what, you must return your item within 30 days even if you have a receipt. I tried to return something yesterday that we got as a duplicate gift (A Dallas Cowboy fleece blanket still unopened in bag with receipt). I bought the gift for my brother for Christmas but he received something similar so I wanted to return or exchange. The answer I got was, "No, it has been passed 30 days since it was purchased." They said I could not even receive store credit or do an exchange. Nothing.

    I will never shop there again. Bad business. I asked for a manager and after them getting sick of me, they gave me a store credit for $10 less than what I originally paid because I guess now the item was on sale. Again, it didn't matter that I had a receipt. Unreal that they expect consumers to only shop right before Christmas in order to get an even exchange or whatever. Terrible. Buh-bye Kmart. I will go elsewhere.

    I had order a mermaid doll online from Kmart for my girl for Christmas (it was in stock at the time I bought it). I wanted it because it swim and so she can play in the bathtub with it. I didn't open it when it arrived, but instead wrap it up for Christmas. Christmas day came, my little girl open it, the doll DIDN'T SWIM. Made me think I did order the (wrong) doll because it show on my SYWR account that I placed an order for that (wrong) doll but also show an order the right doll too. So I order sweaters on SYWR online the other day & decided to check my order history & it happens to be, the right doll was still in process. Then I check my KMART online order (at kmart.com) & surely, I did order the right doll but status said delivered. In addition, there was no order place for the wrong doll on my Kmart online acct. Call customers service, talk to Renee from SEARS & got a refund & a 10% discount (if in the future I call to place an order) but I'm still not happy.

    So because it was out of stock, they sent me a replacement that didn't swim. I DIDN'T WANT THE REFUND, I JUST WANT THE DOLL THAT I ORDER. All they could've done was contact me & lmk it was out of stock in the 1st place & I would have been ok w/ it, but no. Instead they place an order on my SYWR acct and made it look like I order it. I'm disappointed that (1) it was in stock at the time I order it, (2) they deceived me by placing an order on my SYWR acct, (3) Kmart online status says my correct doll was delivered, (4) I didn't get the doll I wanted, (5) retail price was $21.99 but I used my coupon and pay $12.98 and all I got was a 10% discount.

    I attempted to order a bicycle for my 7 yr. old son for Christmas. The bike had a guaranteed delivery date of 12/23/15 (perfectly in time for Christmas). Two days after ordering, and paying, for the bike, I was checking the tracking and it said "on time for deliver on the 30th". That's a WEEK more than what I was told before I ordered! I called Kmart.com/Sears and was told "Oops sorry, and the bike was in stock at my local store" (Then why would they ship it from IN. when the website could've just told me that it was in stock at my local store?) (I'm in CA.) After attempting to get a refund they said it would be 3 business days. Today is the 3rd business day, so I called them up to see why the money hasn't been put on my card yet. They told me that the item was never cancelled and it will take another 3-5 business days before I get a refund!!! No wonder Kmart is on its way out as a viable retailer!!!

    I shop one time a year at Kmart, and every time I swear it's the last time, but this will be the last!!! I had received two five dollar gift cards on 12/24. Today, 12/28 went to spend them before I couldn't anymore, as they were only redeemable until 1/2. I was able to use both at the same time. The cashier gave me my receipt and told me that I have 23 dollars in rewards points to use before 12/31. Knowing that I will likely lose those points since I only shop once a year, I decide to use them then and purchase a few more items. Give the cashier my info for my rewards and then he asks for a pin. I never had one or had to use one before.

    I asked for the manager and tell him and he goes to the service desk for 20 minutes, only to return to tell me that he could let me use ten dollars of my rewards. I just walked out of the store. They will never get my business again!!! Oh did I mention the silver and diamond earrings my friend bought me at said Kmart that made my ears pus and bleed and swell ten times larger!! My ears have been pierced for 22 years!!! KMART SUCKS!!! Oh, I am also a former Kmartian!!! );

It's not fair to handle your customers in this manner. We work hard to pay those payments and ready for Christmas.

    I need to get contact information for the district manager for the Lebanon, PA location. Any help is appreciated. I have a huge problem with your Lebanon, PA location. My sister and I spent over three hours in that location on Black Friday. We loved the clothing sale and collected a large amount to give out as gifts to practically every family member. Our order was well over $200 and we decided to put it on layaway. We made the payments on time and had no issue. Then today, 12/20/2015, my sister goes to pick up the layaway only to find that the entire order has vanished! Gone, not there, doesn't exist. We watched them pack up two large boxes with our products on Black Friday. Where does something like this go???

    After waiting for the manager, she was told it wasn't there, given her money back and a $25 gift card. You may think that's acceptable but it is not. We spent a lot of time and effort in picking out all of those products, and we got these items because of the great prices you were offering on Black Friday, all of which are no longer available, even if the items are on your shelves to begin with. This is just unacceptable. This location has practically ruined our holiday. It is going to take so much more time and effort to try and find different items at different stores for our family members.

    How can a store lose something they KNOW is a future present for somebody? We don't want this $25 gift card, because we don't want to even shop at a Kmart again. This store needs to know that they can't simply say they've "lost" almost our entire cache of Christmas gifts and send us on our way. Somebody needs to be held accountable. How can you expect to keep customers like this? From what I read you don't have many to begin with. You really should care about the ones you have a little more.

    I will not get into the whole story because I have already explained it to many people in hopes that they never order anything through Kmart. But the most important thing for people to know is how sneaky Kmart actually is. I ordered an item Black Friday with of course the great discounted price, received email next day being shipped with tracking. Tracking shows that something was mailed and now stuck in another city for 2 weeks. Received an email then that I cancelled my order? They say it's out of stock. But as of that day, I could get it online and reorder and have it to me in 4 days. But of course $20.00 more than what I paid. And, once they mark it shipped they charge your charge card. Called UPS to see if they could help. No, Kmart restricts their customers to initiate a search. I will never again and hope many others don't order either.

    On 12/03/15 I ordered a several outfits for my daughter and son. My daughter's outfit was immediately cancelled due to being out of stock. Received an email within an hour stating my account would be refunded. Immediately contacted Kmart/Sears about it. Told to wait 3-5 business days. On 12/07/15 Receive all items on my 2-day shipping except the item that was cancelled by Kmart (lack of stock) and an outfit for my son, cost $14.99, $15.77 with tax. It was simply not shipped at all, and the status was stuck at pending for a very long time.

    I contacted customer support about still being charged for the item and my bank claiming there is no pending refund. I was charged $21.03, $19.99 with tax, and it was pending until this date. Explained the situation to the chat rep. Was told to wait 3-5 business days for the refund to go through. Explained still missing outfit for my son, told it will arrive soon and to be patient. Somehow, magically it would arrive by the end of the week. Was told it was stuck in the warehouse.

    On 12/10/15 contacted Kmart phone support, was told it was "escalated". Meanwhile, at the same time, chat agent is telling me I will receive my refund AND my missing item by Monday. Amazing how that will suddenly happen when I've been waiting a long time for BOTH. Whatever, it's not really escalated. I've been through this before.

    On 12/13/15, notice that my son's outfit suddenly says delivered. It's SUNDAY. No mail has arrived on SUNDAY. Check outside just in case, as I have been doing every day, nope... Not here. Contact support again. Get told 3-5 business days for them to "find" my son's outfit. Check email. Have email in there stating I wasn't originally charged for my daughter's outfit. WOW! Yes, I was. Then why did over 6 chat agents and 2 phone "techs" in India tell me otherwise? Why does my bank say otherwise? Right... Told another 3-5 days to get my refund. Uh huh.

    Last time this happened, I spent 3 months on the phone with Kmart support - most of them in India. I recorded every single conversation. Most were rude and outright lying to me. Lots of run around, hours and hours of work to try to get $100 refund. At the 5 month mark, I had to do a chargeback with my bank. Was approved immediately. I am going to have to do a charge back again, but my bank requires papers faxed in this time. Fine, I'll fax in some paperwork. Either way, I'm never shopping here again. Should have listened to my husband when he told me not to, and I completely expect my money to never be seen again at worst.

    The order form has instructions on how to require a return label through the Kmart Order Center website. However, the website made it extremely difficult to print a return shipping label and I made three phone calls speaking to a few associates, making them aware of the problem. The third associate, so called manager, I spoke with ended up saying since I ordered the right items they can not provide a return label it is not their fault and that I have to pay to return the items, what cheapskate. What I ordered is not the problem, what the problem is the website that does not provide the return label.

    All I was asking is for help on how to print a return label regardless of the right or wrong items purchased, it should not be a problem returning items to a store and much less from a website with proof or receipt. The website failed and so did the associates. I will never in my life buy from Kmart again nor I will recommend anyone to buy from Kmart.com. Not worth the trouble and the frustration. Epic failure.

    Updated on 12/15/2015: Since the careless foreign Kmart associates with a very strong accent including manager who I spoke with and which they were not helpful at all failed to provide a return label as stated on the order form. I spend $52.67 for items purchased through the Kmart website plus it cost me $31.44 to ship them back to Kmart. I spent $84.11 total plus the frustration of dealing with people who do not clearly speak English nor understand you. Hope I get my refund back to my credit card.

    There was so many things wrong at this Kmart, it would take two pages to accurately recount them. So I'm just going to list my shopping nightmare problems and wish I could describe each gory detail. Store looks like it's merchandised by monkeys with A.D.D. Prices & " sales " are a joke. It's Kmart, not Macy's. BOGO! Lol. $50 for boots where the glue on the soles is showing & hanging on hooks on an elastic band. Or where most shoes are all over the floor. Rang me up, approved my card, cash register crashed. Wanted to remove everything bagged from my cart & rescan. I refused & left that hot mess there. They kept the merchandise & still charged my card. I went back to get error fixed. This took 2 hours, 5 people, a paper bank statement, and the time to watch how they operate.

    Mind you, I had to take time from MY JOB, where my employer provides customer service training, expects professional attitudes and product knowledge & understands the value of impressions and who's presence represents the face of the company. Here at this Kmart, while I had lots of time to watch: 2 employees on break ringing up and/or having the return desk hold their lunch, their goods, etc., taking up customer line space & time, one lady (supervisor?) literally SCREAMING at sadly trained employees, using intercom to scream and acting like an idiot who needs everyone to understand she's in charge, which only resulted in longer wait times.

    THEN after the runaround, they want to keep my bank statement which I explain I am not comfortable with since it has all of my personal info on it, to which they reply they need a " paper trail" or I can't get my money back for goods I never left the store with... Wow. Normally I would have completely lost my mind & patience but watching these people was incredulous. I seriously do not know how this place stays open. It's pathetic, embarrassing, dirty and makes Big Lots next door INCREDIBLY appealing & that's saying something. This was my first & last Kmart excursion and word of mouth in the business I am in is going to happen. I don't have a receipt, an order number or anything but Wells Fargo on my side. They didn't give me a copy of anything with the refund of $140.00. Nice job Kmart.

I put an item on layaway on Halloween, I paid every two weeks for it even before my scheduled time and paid it off on thanksgiving weekend. It was a Christmas gift for my husband. After paying in full I received an email saying that my order was cancelled and no longer available. I was livid!!! Isn't the idea of layaway that they put an item aside for you?!? I called customer service who assured me it was a "computer glitch" and I would get my item. I received no email or confirmation of that.

    So again the following day I call and was given a fake phone number by an operator to call which was disconnected! I called again 2 days later and was told they had plenty of the item and don't understand my issue but I would probably receive the item. Again no confirmation. I waited another 2 days and called AGAIN and was told NO I would not receive my item and was getting a refund! I was beyond furious! They told me it would be 5 to 7 days! Well I still am out $100 and have no item! I need the return money to purchase the new item as a Christmas gift. When I called again I was told it could be another 10 days!

    So basically they take your money, hold onto it and give you the runaround. You get no item and they take their time with the return!

I did receive an email from my Paypal account stating a refund had been given in the amount charged for the toys. I called customer service and was simply told it must have been an error. In my opinion, maybe the error is to continue to do business when you are not capable of it. I received nothing from Kmart on the order or what happened at all. I had to get to their competitor at the last hour and was able to to get the gifts in time. Simply unacceptable on Kmart's part.

    On 12/3/2015 I waited in check-out line no. 3 for approx. 15 minutes while the checker was working with a customer that had about ten items, and several coupons. The checker kept checking the items and coupons in and out of the bag several times before calling a manager. This went on for about another ten minutes. By this time I had had enough. I commented that these people did not know what they were doing. The manager said that she knew what she was doing. My reply was "It didn't look like it to me". I then left the items I wanted to purchase at the service desk. I WILL NOT SHOP AT KMART ANYMORE.

    My wife was at Kmart today and needed a shopping cart. There was none in the store, but found carts outside but they were stuck together. She ask an employee to help but she replied they were stuck together but did not offer to help or go to the parking and bring a buggy. My wife is severely handicapped and needs support to walk. Now we both will be shopping at WAL-MART from now on.

    If you had a zero I would rate it that. Since you don't, I'm forced to give it a 1. It was by far my worst experience yet. I am NOT a Kmart shopper, but I consider doing a layaway there. I picked out everything I needed in October, so I wouldn't have to deal with the December hustle and bustle. When I go pick up my layaway, after waiting for one hour they found one item which came out dusty and dirty. And after waiting all that time they couldn't find my things. Yes, my money was returned. So what? Big deal. The customer service sucks. That was terrible, horrible, and rude at all. This location is the one in the Bronx and Bruckner Blvd. I will never go back to the store or shop by Kmart ever again!!!

    I ordered 4 items on Black Friday and promptly received my delivery the following Tuesday. Problem is, they only sent 1 of the 4 items that I ordered but charged me for the full amount. I did an online chat which was another fiasco since all lines stayed busy. Probably for the same bad service. I was told that their system showed that my items were delivered and was my box damaged. I stated that the box came perfectly fine and that you wouldn't be able to fit the 4 items in it anyway because this size box was meant for 1 item.

    Customer service stated that they could refund my money which would take 3-5 business days and I stated that my delivery time took less than that. CS then stated that they didn't understand my comment which led me to believe that this was probably some call center abroad. I'm current awaiting my refund and judging by the way things are with these people, I will probably have to call to get a live person from someone abroad to get this situated. No wonder these guys have been tanking for years.

    I made a purchase on Kmart online and when I got my credit card statement I had a total of 5 extra charges that I have no idea what they were for on my cc. These charges totaled to 616.50. I called customer service and explained what had happened. They went into my acct and acknowledged that I was indeed charged all these extra charges. I was assured that by the following day I would be refunded and I would see the money showing back on my card. Nothing of that matter has happened up to this day. Mind you I've been trying to get back my money since the 17th of november.

    I've been calling every day and each time I speak to someone new and have to explain my dilemma over and over again just to be told Im gonna get my refund back immediately and I'll be receiving an email saying my money has been refunded. Nothing has happened and I still havent gotten my money placed back on my credit card. All thats happening is Im being given the runaround. I call, I send emails and no one bothers answering my emails. Im so frustrated but I wont give up. I will continue calling and Im willing to take legal actions against them if that is what it takes.

    I ordered several items on Black Friday from their website. Checked to boxes correctly to place them on layaway and finished checking out. An hour later I received an email that some of the items were being shipped and my bank account was being charged the full amount. I immediately called and asked for help and was given the run around by someone who I couldn't even understand. After about 40 minutes of trying to explain to her the problem I told her I wanted a supervisor. Her response - "Ma'am I am trained to help with all of your problems." Basically had to freak out to get a case manager. No results other than getting the run around. Now I'm being told one of the items is out of stock.

    Called this morning hoping to get someone on the phone that knew anything. Was told that their customer service is in the Philippines, that until you actually pay the whole layaway off the items aren't guaranteed to you and when you get done making your payments the item might not be available. Who the bleep is running this circus!!!??? How the he** can you sell stuff the you don't actually have in stock!!!??? This would be why I quit going to Kmart years ago and now will never set foot in again. Hope you go out of business with this kind of crappy service.

    Everyone beware of the Kmart "Why not lease it option". All they just do is charge you more when you want to cancel out your lease. And beware all they wanna do is keep calling you to sign up for a new lease even though you not interested and tell them to remove you from the "do not call list" but still they will call you. If you want to get something from Kmart my best option is for you to buy full price or put it on layaway but not "Why not lease it". And all I can say "Why not lease it" is a total scam. All they want to do is take all your hard earn money for themselves and be happy that they took your money. Once you call to get your money back, they will take a long time to give you your money back and give you the runarounds. So once again BEWARE OF "WHY NOT LEASE IT".

    I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Recently a Kmart that was very close to my house closed down so I have driven across town to the only other one in town to be able to shop Kmart. Once I was returning an item at the service desk the person helping me seemed frustrated and was complaining of being short-handed. Meanwhile I noticed the checkout lines were becoming extremely backed up and only 3 open. An employee who was apparently arriving to work came in and the lady at service desk yelled to her that she was gonna have to work on a register. The employee responded back with complaint saying she was going to talk to someone, the manager I presumed. Again this was while the lines were extremely backed up, customers looking ** off. It was so unprofessional and you'd think an employee would worry about their job after such a display in front of customers.

    Another time I had purchased an item listed to be on sale but when I went to the check out if the item it rang up different so I explained input another employee with me to show them. It turned out that the items were placed in the wrong spot. This of course held at the line and the cashier not only refuse to Honor the price, but was huffing with her hands on hips and a smirk very obviously. I said "Listen you don't have to be rude to your customer. It not my fault the item was not placed properly." She rolled her eyes and was even more rude. Again you'd think an employee would fear her job or reprimand by management...but I've seen at least one manager who seemed very unprofessional, low class-like, covering about issues with other employees in front of consumers so that speaks for itself.

    Their prices are high compared to Walmart and I've read many reviews about Kmart store locations nationwide that were very bad. That says a lot as well, probably contribute to so many of their stores closing down and losing business. They don't seem to have standards, professionalism, morale towards customers or put people in authority positions to run their store with these values. It seems more like a store that will hire anybody to fill the position. I would rather pay higher prices and stop at a store with class and professional employees with high standards.

    I ordered 6 panels of curtains. On the product page, it showed the color oyster as being a nice crisp bright white, which is what I wanted, so I ordered them. When they arrived imagine my surprise when they were actually an ivory color. I immediately went to my computer and initiated a return for these curtains. I received a notification stating that I would receive an email with a shipping label to print. Never got the email. I sent an email to customer service saying that I can't print the return shipping label, please help. They told me that it was a "technical" error and I would have to wait 2 business days for the return to process and them to send me the shipping label. I waited, no label. Call customer service, was assured I would get it in 2 business days and I would be refunded fully.

    Finally received the shipping label a week later. I received the label late in the day so I printed it out and got it ready to ship back the next day. They received them the day after they were shipped out. I received an email that day stating that they had received them and it would take 2 business days to process my return. 2 business came and went and nothing.

    This morning I receive an email from them stating that they needed to confirm the quantity of what I returned (I didn't think it was that hard to figure out). Needless to say the woman I spoke with told me it would take another 24 hours to process my return at which point I had lost my patience and hung up on her. I received an email this evening telling me that my return has been processed but it could take 5-7 business days for the money to show up back in my account, and that they were deducting the cost of the return shipping label from my refund (when I was promised by several people I would get a full refund).

When I realized one was good and the other two not I returned to the store the next day and was told without a receipt they do not know when I purchased it and so I could not return them... OK, so I asked for store credit. After all it's a Kmart item and was told I would have to lose the money or give them as gifts... It is not any to tell me what to do with my money...

I asked them if we could try calling them and getting it taken care and I was told "we only send e-mails."

    I then asked if I could be refunded my money for the 1 set and would just go order it again. That way I wouldn't have to wait anymore. They said they could not do that until they have received a response from their vendor. I now have to wait another 3-5 business days. I order a lot of stuff online and sometime things happen but I have never had a company treat me so poorly. Kmart your policies for customer service are awful. I would not recommend ordering anything from Kmart. If it's not in the store don't get it from them. They care more about their vendors than they do about their customers.

    I put in a layaway with Kmart center #4961 3 weeks ago. I went last night to pick my layaway up, called in advance & explained I paid it off pretty early & was hoping it was still in store to pickup as soon as possible. The 2 employees I've dealt with up until this point (the 1 person when making the layaway, & the 1 on the phone when I called about picking it up) were friendly & gave great customer service. I go to pick up my layaway, stand in line (there is 1 couple in front of me), I am given a dissatisfied look by the cashier. She says to the couple in front of me "I am going on lunch after y'all, I can't help her." She then leans over and asks me what I need, I tell her "I am picking up a layaway." She then responds "Well I just clocked out for lunch, I can't help you." I respond back "That's fine, as long as there is someone who is able to assist me." She doesn't respond after my comment, and proceeds to ringing her customer up.

    I see another employee passing by and ask can she help, she says "That's not my department," and walks off! At this point the cashier has finished ringing her customer up and starts walking to the back for her lunch break. She DOES NOT call anyone back there to help me. I express to her that I did not appreciate the rude customer service, she proceeds to walk to the back. I go up to the lady at the customer service desk and tell her what just transpired. Her response is, "Well layaway can be stressful because some customers are hard to deal with, that's why I'm looking for a new job!"

    At this point I am completely taken aback and request a manager, who conveniently just went to the restroom. While finally getting my layaway out after 20 minutes of waiting, I wait on the manager for about another 20 minutes and he never shows. At this point needing to get back to my husband and toddler at home, I give up on my attempt to complain and leave. I will however be telling my friends and family about my experience at center 4961 and encourage them NOT to do their shopping at that location. I will continue to be a Kmart shopper, but not at center 4961. The customer service I received last night was unacceptable.

    Kmart, Sears, and Shop Your Way all appear to be misleading consumers. I have repeatedly done live chats, called multiple numbers, (and experience multiple transfers) and can't get right answers. The Internet has shown a pogo stick that I am interested in for several weeks and absolutely nowhere can this item be found. If it's not available let's remove it from these sites.

    Next issue: I recently was shopping for a lawn mower and even though it was the end of the year, I thought I would try my luck. Once again, I did live chats and called various departments, all without success. Ultimately, I found one at a local Kmart and before driving out to the store and wasting a trip, I decided to call and verify the item was there. I was assured that it was and was a lower price than I thought it would be. One would think that would be a great deal except for the fact that this was an open item which was not disclosed to me over the phone. Since it is an electric lawn mower, I thought I should buy a warranty because I had no idea if this unit would work if there's absolutely no more to be found anywhere. I got home, I called Shop Your Way about this experience and spoke with the lady in Wisconsin who was very helpful and decided to give me some courtesy points for the inconvenience.

    A few days later, I got an email from Shop Your Way stating that I had surprise points available. I was looking for a new garbage disposal and when I clicked on the item I was interested in I was immediately directed to Home Depot. Nobody at Shop Your Way, Kmart, or Sears could understand how that would happen. I drove over to a local Sears to inquire about the item in person only to get an extremely rude and unprofessional salesperson who was only interested in selling the units that were significantly higher than what I was intending to buy. The reason for him trying to upsell is due to the fact that he is probably a commission only salesperson. I indicated that I needed to stay economical due to my income. I also told him that I wanted to use my reward points that I already had plus the ones that were the surprise points. He responded by saying, "You're looking to be cheap and take advantage free points."

    This is totally unacceptable as a consumer. Why would these surprise points be sent to me if the sales staff thinks that the public is using the system. I immediately requested to speak with the manager regarding the situation and the manager was appalled. He gave me some additional points to be used on a garbage disposal which I now refused to buy at the store. I guess the sales person just wasn't thinking because a small commission is better than absolutely no commission. I was told by multiple store representatives that I would be able to get a price match with the Home Depot cost of the exact same item.

    I went to a different Sears store a few days later only to have a manager try to explain to me the difference between a brick and mortar store and internet website. I showed him the Sears.com website as well as the Home Depot website which would both be online dot com sites. To this, he was unable to think of anything he could say to contradict what I had to point out to him. While I am used to the incompetence when dealing with live chats and people overseas, I am NOT accustomed to saying that from people, especially management at the store levels. I could go on and on and I'm just cautioning people to be careful and do their homework when working with these companies.

    I have seen so many local Kmart's and Sears stores close in the last year. I am absolutely convinced that Sears and Kmart will not and should not be around much longer. I am sure that I am NOT the only person who has experienced this horrible service at Sears, Kmart and all the other companies that have chosen to outsource jobs overseas and it is my belief that this will ultimately contribute to the demise of so many stores and businesses here in the States. If we cut some of these jobs here, our unemployment rate would not be as high as it is, service would be better, and there would be many many more customers employed you couldn't turn. Spend money here instead of buying from overseas merchants. Good luck Kmart and Sears. You're going to need it but I can't wait till you go out of business.

    So we are planning on moving into our home again but we needed appliances. So I placed a stove from Kmart on layaway. Made the first payment just fine. I also put a fridge on layaway at Sears and made those payments although after the first payment it took an average of over 45 minutes to an hour to get their web page to work properly. To my surprise I went to pay my layaway on my stove 2 weeks ago at Kmart and found that the contract was cancelled for lack of payment. What so I looked at my credit card online. That payment was still pending and had never settled out for 2 whole weeks, so what a glitch huh.

    So yesterday I try to make my final payment exactly 8 weeks to the day from when I placed the fridge on Layaway. Contract cancelled due to missed payments. So I went to my PayPal. It showed all three payments had processed. SO NOW HOW DID I MISS A PAYMENT? Is it not their job to process and keep track of this? So I now have several emails the morning stating missed payments and crap like that and a refund to PAYPAL, but whatever, I still have not received my money back for the stove although my credit card company did kick off the pending charge.

    I will be contacting the attorney general's office as I believe this is violation of laws of the state of Idaho as I signed a contract and in that contract it stated that I will make these payment and they violated their end of the contract that leaves my children still without a fridge, while we wait for a deposit to our account from PayPal so we can go to a local business and buy a fridge and stove. I am sure they will make our experience wonderful since they have to work hard for their money and not steal it from hard working Americans. I HOPE EVERYONE QUITE DOING BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. Then a better company can take their place. Please contact me and I will forward the email and receipts from paypal. Thanks.

    I got a letter in the mail today that I have 20$ is surprise points, went into Kmart and picked up laundry soap and such, went to check out and they could find the points on my account, asked me 3 times if the card I gave them was the same one that worked with the letter I got. 3 times I said yes, after 15 min they told me I'd have to go to the service counter. Fine I went up there, tried to tell her what happen and the lady very rudely told me that I can't use the point because they can't be used on groceries and laundry soap was considered grocery.

    I told her that it does not anywhere on there say that it can't be used for groceries, but other than that, soap is not considered groceries. She then yelled again that "anything that you can eat is groceries, last time I checked you can't get laundry soap." I left the items up there and left. I'll never be back. I hope it closes down. It seems like it's halfway there anyways. This was at the Kmart store in Kenosha WI.

    I put in two orders online and first they said the first order was lost during shipment and to give them a few days then they refunded me and sent it back to the store without my consent. The second order was then on backorder so I called today and they said it was delivered to a p.o. box in which I didn't give them. I said I wanted a refund and I have to wait for them to track the item. I have been waiting two weeks and they will not refund for another 24 hours.
