I have been a Kohl's shopper for years. The last two online orders I have placed have just simply vanished somewhere in the "warehouse" never to be found again. Both times, I have spent more than an hour on the phone with customer service trying to re-order or remove the missing items from my bill/account. I was placed on hold several times, and then told after the long periods of "wait time" that they would have to cancel the order, or that the items were no longer available. What? I wanted those items? Why was a "track your order" form submitted and sent to me via my personal email? What is going on?
You would think that after an hour they could re-submit your lost order and get you moving on your way again. Where are these customer service reps located? Are they actually running to the warehouse to check the situation out? WTH? OMG! I WILL NEVER ORDER FROM KOHLS.COM AGAIN! Bring the work and customer service back to the US Kohl's!

So this is the third time that Kohl's has shipped me the wrong item. The right item # and tracking # on the receipt and the box, but the wrong item in the box. Their customer service is friendly enough, they say they want to help, but seriously... If they ship you the wrong item here are your choices: Find a store, take your time to take the package there, stand in customer service line (by the way never do that at the Schaumburg, IL store, they are terrible!) and then hope they have the right item. If they don't, good luck getting a refund because the receipt says it is the item you ordered but the box doesn't contain it, so they can't figure out how to return it.
If you don't want to take it to the store, you can wait 10 days for UPS to pick it up, and then wait until they receive it to get a refund, then call customer service and ask to reorder it at the original price. So what good is having good prices with this kind of service? I order about 80% of my items online, I have NEVER had this kind of issue with Amazon, Wayfair or Overstock. My advice: pay a little extra and order at Amazon, Wayfair or Overstock. ONLY buy at Kohl's if it is in the store.

I was shopping with my friend and this very nice lady was walking down the aisle looking very busy but she smiled and asked us if we needed help. I asked her about an item that was on the ad. She looked in the department for it and there were none. She told me that they would be on the next day's truck but she would look in the back for the pressure cooker I was looking for. She took a few minutes but when she came back she said that you were out until tomorrow. I showed her the one like it in the ad. There was a 10.00 difference. She told me she would take care of me. No problem and she did. She carried it upfront for me. She jumped on a till to ring me up. She even offered to carry it out for me. I will only have her help me from now on. She works at the Richland Kohls. Her name is Michelle. I am truly impressed by her customer service practices.

I bought a baby item. Kohl's did NOT deliver the item saying they could not verify the person at the address. There is a track record from FedEx, thank goodness, stating that the item has been shipped back to Kohl's. Despite the fact that the item was NEVER received by the recipient, Kohl's insists on having my money stating "link has been established between the person receiving the merchandise and the cardholder or to support that the cardholder disputing the transaction is in possession of the merchandise." How about reading tracking record from FEDEX. The MERCHANDISE WAS DROPPED off at KOHL's WAREHOUSE. NASTY fraudulent merchant. I KNOW I will never be fool into shopping there again. Looking forward to seeing KOHL's going bankrupt.

Back in August, we made the minimum monthly payment of $25 as usual. At some point at the beginning of September, we thought we'd lost a wallet. We called in to request them to cancel the card and send a new one. Rep said there was a past due balance on the card. Come to find out, they had increased the payment to $27. Also found out that the address they had on file was wrong, so we corrected it. Rep waived the late fee, said everything was fine now and that my payments from that point would be $27. Went in in September and paid $30. Started getting calls that when we answered would just say "Please call Kohl's Card Services". We looked up the number we received the call from, and it said it was a fraud call used to get your info and steal your identity. We blocked the number, and that was that. Figured that if Kohl's wanted to contact us, a person would be on the phone to follow through if we answered, or they'd send a letter or an e-mail.
Finally, we called Kohl's after the calls didn't stop. They said that we failed to pay the full minimum due in September. We said "What are you talking about? The lady told us it was $27 and we paid $30." They continued to state that the Rep did not inform us about an increase because the minimum in August wasn't paid. I told her that we didn't know the payment had gone up, and that the Rep said everything was settled and to start paying the $27/month. At this point, I was apparently supposed to pay $37 in September because we missed the minimum by $2 in August. And when we only paid $30 in September, that increased our October minimum to $54.
The original Rep I spoke with told us it was settled and to start paying $27/month. Nothing about overcharges or anything else. LIE! Second rep confirmed my info and said I wouldn't have to reconfirm when he transferred me. LIE! Third rep told me that her supervisor could pull the original call and fix it if what I said was true about the original rep not informing us of the upcharge. LIE! Supervisor said there was nothing they could do about it and the only way to fix it was to pay the $54. ALL OF THIS OVER A $2 DISCREPANCY BECAUSE OF AN INCORRECT ADDRESS! You really think someone is going to miss out on $2 on purpose?! I could walk around the Kohl's parking lot and find $2 in change! My payment has double because Kohl's LIES to their customers!! Horrible customer service!

Every time I go into Kohl's at Hamilton Mill they are very rude. They gossip and talk negative in front of the customers. Karina at Kohl's in Hamilton Mill is by far the worst customer service manager I have ever met. I have never seen her smile in the store. When she talks to you she talks to you as if she's better than you. If you look at reviews under Facebook and yelp you will see the type of service you will receive at this Kohl's. I've always said good things about the store Manager Bill but he's apparently gone downhill and he's not doing his job. If I managed a store I would take the time to see what the public has to say about this store. I won't tell you that the other stores are much better. You have the lead supervisor in Lawrenceville who is always smoking cigarettes in the front of the store. The management at this store also has many problems. Kohl's needs to retrain all employees even management because they all have poor customer service skills.
Kohl's as a retail store has some of the worst customer service oriented employees I've ever met. Why work with the public if you can't smile and be friendly. Don't act like you like your job but show obvious actions you don't like what you do. But Karina needs to be fired. But as I stated it's most stores in Gwinnett county. They all have the same problems. But I will have to say one good thing about the Flowery Branch store. They keep their clothes racks in the most organized manner I have ever seen at any department store. They are not friendly but the store is always in excellent condition. But Kohl's needs to have and undercover person from corporate come in these stores and see what I'm talking about. See how employees like Karina at Hamilton Mill store treats her customers. She is a very fake person.

Was just sent a new credit card due to mine being expired. Spoke to person on phone. Told me I could use my phone number in store until I used my card but I waited for card activated it. I'd say a month after receiving it went to make a purchase online, wouldn't load a page I needed so I phoned. Was informed they purged my account for non use. How are they going to purge my account? Because I'm a responsible person and didn't use my card while I was taking care of my husband who was struggling with cancer and passed away. I'm sorry I didn't have time to work, let alone shop.

Purchased items, size issue for my son, wrote a check. Was electronically processed next day, took items back for refund, I was refused my money back. Was forced to take store credit, I am livid over this. Even with my receipt I was refused the cash back they took from me. I told Manager I don't want 80.00 in store credit. I want my money back they took out of my bank acct. I was forced to take store credit. They are a bunch of crooks. Had I known this was going to happen would've put a stop payment on the check. For everyone that shops at Kohl's do not use debit/bankcard or check because if you need to return something they will not give you your money back. They will force you to take store credit. THEY ARE CROOKS... EVEN WITH A RECEIPT.

I have been a patron of Kohl's for 15 years now and the company is complete garbage now. First, they take away being able to use Kohl's cash after expiration, EVEN IF IT HAS ONLY BEEN A DAY! Second, they jack up the prices on everything and then mark it down "75%" and at the end when they ring you up it's always, "well today you managed to save $315!!" Yeah okay... so give me my Kohl's cash so I can see it's labeled for an inconvenient time frame and I'm out $50 that I could have used towards highly priced items. I wish I did not do my wedding registry with them because their prices are so obscene. I feel bad for my guests having to pay three times what it's worth.
Lastly, since I have gift cards from my wedding guests I was just on the app trying to find shoes and undergarments for my wedding, the app closed and I reopen it where it asks me to put my password in, says it's incorrect so I reset it. After resetting it tells me I'm locked out and to call customer service. Hello, THEY'RE CLOSED NOW so I'm SOL until the morning. Kohl's... you used to be great. What in the world happened to you?

Kohl's tried to tell me they send receipts for online purchases, but I didn't receive one... You would think a simple email would do it...but No. They won't and said they don't have a receipt for my order of $295.00. More than angry as I have spent 2 hours on the phone arguing with customer service. Called many times and spoke to different people and that didn't help. WHERE IS MY RECEIPT??? You didn't email it to me!!!

Kohl's was the cause for my credit report to fall, and it was due to their dereliction in the area of electronic billing. I have been a Kohl's customer for years. They offered electronic billing and it seemed easy enough. I signed up. Getting on with the business of my life, I received my first electronic bill from Kohl's 2 months later. I looked it over and saw a late fee. They stopped sending a paper bill but I did not get the electronic bill until 2 months later. I called and they took the late fee off. I thought it was simply them not processing my info soon enough so I forgot about it.
That following spring, the same thing happened again. I hadn't noticed that they missed sending an electronic bill and another month went by. This time around, they had reported it and my credit score is down a few hundred points. I called them up and they seemed mystified as to why I wasn't receiving the electronic bill. They took off the late fee again, but the damage was done. The bill wasn't much and the damage is done. I'm pretty ticked. Anyone else have that problem?

I've been a Kohl's shopper since my early teenage years and have purchased many, many things from various Kohl's stores across the country. Today my husband and I went to a Kohl's store and I was browsing around at the housewares and home decor. I noticed that a LOT of the products are incredibly overpriced and then "marked down" with a sale. One item that caught my eye was a scent plug-in holder with a fall leaf on it. It was marked as $19.99 and then 50% off. $19.99 for a plastic holder when other stores sell similar ones for $9.99? Same with their K-Cups. $14.99 for an 18-count package and they are approximately $10.99-$11.99 at most other retailers.
But wait, Kohl's is offering a sale on them for $11.99 each or two packs for $20. While their prices (after the "sale", of course) are reasonable and compatible with other stores, their marketing ploys are horrible. They want customers to believe that they are getting a deal when, in reality, they are paying the same retail price that they would pay anywhere else. I think it's terrible that they mark up prices and then lower them to con people into buying their product over another retailer's. It's extremely tacky!

I sent a chat request for the "name" of a pair of khakis I owned (I wanted to replace them).

I was a huge fan of Kohl's before getting a credit card with them. I fell behind to make my payment, I received a letter from them stating they would match my payment. I quickly made my payment online. In one month there was no payment to match mine from Kohl's. I called them and what happens next really shouldn't surprise anyone as I already felt this was too good to be true. I was told "You did not read the notice all the way. You had to call to make the payment not go online." I stated "My bad. I really should of read the entire notice so nothing can be done, no." Called back spoke to someone else and the lady did help. She waived the late fees and said "Your next payment is due 10/16/2016." Great I thought something is better than nothing. 9/16/2016 I go online and double check that everything we talked about was done. Nope my due date is not 10/16/2016 it is 9/16/2016 and I spent every penny of mine that day to pay all my bills.
When I call I'm told "Well the rep was wrong." Ok well that doesn't help me. It's actually really going to cost me in a late fee I suppose. The rep was generous gave me till 9/21/2016 and said he will waive the late fee. 9/21/2016, today I went online and my available balance has dropped and there were no late fees or interest charges since I spoke to Kohl's. I call them and waste 5 minutes talking to a rep asking "Were there any new charges, 'cause there is nothing to see online." The rep finally says "You were charged a late fee." I'm annoyed after this being my 3rd call and I'm being diligent to handle my affairs. I ask for him to look at the account notes, he says "I can't waive a late fee. We already did that for you." I said "Collections did that for me as a courtesy for an offer I did not thoroughly read but Kohls still wanted to offer something to me."
This new late fee wasn't ever suppose to be charged and I made my payment as promised online while speaking to this rep and had to request a supervisor. Supervisor gets on the phone and will waive the late fee but then says my minimum payment isn't 27 like my bill says it's 33. Seriously no explanation on this small rate increase and then states in order to waive the late fee I have to set up an automatic payment for my next payment that wasn't late and I wasn't even billed for yet. It's not due till 10/16/2016. So of course I said "No I don't have to do that." Listen to all the calls you state are be recording and do what every rep promised me and that's that. We will see if everything gets done right, probably not! Horrible customer service, get it together!!

I purchased a 12 volt Mini Beachcomber ride on toy for my 4 year old's birthday. I received the item after 7 business days. It took nearly 1.5 hours to assemble the toy. The toy worked properly for about 30 minutes before the accelerator button on the toy malfunctioned. I called Kohl's customer service, and I was told to disassemble the item and schedule a pickup or return it to my nearest Kohl's. I chose to return it to Kohl's due to the amount of time (likely 2 weeks or more) it would take to receive another toy.
I returned the item from Kohls expecting a discount on my order, but not only did I not get a discount, Kohl's took the Kohl's cash that I received for the order and subtracted it from my refund! So I'm inconvenienced to have to find my son another gift at the last minute and return this defective item 18 miles one way to Kohl's without any compensation or goodwill gesture for my trouble! Kohl's will not receive any more of my business and I've shredded my Kohl's charge card! Amazon and Wal-Mart.com have always treated me fairly in similar situations, so I'm going to stick with them!

I just want to voice my concern that a store such as Kohl's has literally NOTHING made in the USA as part of their product line, clothing or otherwise. I find this very disheartening. I have had MANY quality issues with the clothing they do sell which are made in every 3rd world part of the planet, obviously using near slave labor in order to keep the costs very low, which is reflected in the quality of the items. If nothing more, why not have a "MADE IN USA, support American workers" section of the store.
You can charge more of course, because it would be made by Americans that make more than 50 cents a day, but I for one would GLADLY spend the extra money for BETTER quality, and know that I'm helping to keep and maybe bring back jobs to the USA. It's easy for people to dismiss my comments or this notion, until they or someone in their family loses a job due to outsourcing to another country. I hope this comment does not fall on deaf ears, and perhaps more people can make this stand as well. I hope Kohl's will try to do the right thing and at least consider a suggestion like mine. Thank you.

I purchased a Citizen brand watch (retail value: $595) on 9/3/16 from your Bridgeton location. I had the woman working the jewelry department size the watch (removing links) while I was there. Not only was she far from delicate, she completely broke 2 pins and damaged the steel links (permanently scratched 3 links), then continued to tell me "You don't need the pins anyway". Later that evening, I also noticed a small dent on the watch case and scratch on the crown. I went to another jewelers the next day to have it looked at and there was nothing that could be done to fix the scratches and dents on the watch links, case, or crown. This is an expensive timepiece and I cannot believe the lack of care given to such a quality watch. I have purchased a lot of things from Kohl's, both clothing and jewelry, and I plan to not shop there for fine jewelry ever again. I would like something to be done to fix this issue.

I don't know what has happened to Kohl's but it is very obvious that their clothing line has gone WAY downhill. It's cheap and the quality is terrible. You can get better clothes at Walmart and it didn't use to be this way. They are going to lose a lot of loyal customers who used to appreciate the value etc. It's just gone downhill!!!

I sent in a check to them and they didn't receive it so I got charged a late fee. I sent a letter stating that I sent a check and I don't understand what happened. I set up an online payment for my original charge not including the fee. They reversed the original fee and then charged me another fee that was double the original for not paying the first fee "on time." How can I pay a fee on time that was reversed/non-existent!!!

I ordered a pair of size 8 black boots this summer at Kohl's.com. Everything seemed fine until I opened the box to discover they had shipped me a pair of size 11 brown boots. I called customer service to rectify the situation and was told that I had to rebuy the boots and pay for the $10 shipping again. I returned the boots at my local store. Unfortunately, I was told that I would not be fully compensated for the mistake and that they would refund the shipping on the original boots, but the majority of the cost for the old boots and the entirety of the cost of the new boots would not be paid for.
I have shopped at Kohl's for a long time, and it's a tradition I sense is coming to an end. I had to pay almost double the original cost to fix THEIR mistake and customer service was incredibly unhelpful and worsened the problem. Due to the ineptness of the customer service, I had to go back and pay for shipping AGAIN. This is the last time I order something from Kohl's.

I received my rebate but when my wife tried to use it at Panera Bread for an $8 and change transaction it was declined. She again tried to use it at a candy store and it was declined there too.

Beware of this company's practice of reporting false information to the credit companies. I ran a credit report as I am getting ready to buy a home. I found that in 2014 they reported me 30 days late and then 60 days late on my payments. I keep all records and I had not even charged anything during this time prior. My account was paid in full 3 months before this showed up. I pay in full every month that I charge to avoid interest. I called customer service. They took all my information and said they would pass it on to the credit department. WHAT? They would not let me talk to anyone in that department saying I would get a call after it was investigated.
I called a week later asking when I would hear something. I was told that it would be a month or longer. I called in another week and was told the same thing. I again gave them all the information that I had and said I would email them the documents proving I had no late payments. Still nothing. I began asking around and many people have had this exact same problem. My daughter said they ended up going through the Attorney General's office to get their mess cleared. That is my next step. I would think this company is setting themselves up for a huge lawsuit when their error prevents a person from being able to buy a home at the normal interest rate. Shame on Kohl's.

I ordered a bunch of school clothes through Kohls.com for my child. I entered my new and current address into the website and set this address as my primary address. Then I placed the order. Well Kohl's sent my packages to an old home address. I called Kohl's and told them that they sent they are sending the packages to the wrong address and they told me that since the fedex, ups, and usps already has the packages that there was nothing they can do. They actually told me to contact the shipping companies and try and get the addresses changed to the new address. I told them that they should be doing that and not me, because this was their own computer systems fault and not mine. They said that they cannot do that for me, that I have to do it.
Finally I asked for a supervisor and he told me the same thing. I told him that I was not going to do it and he finally said that he would try and contact them and change the address. Well after about 15 minutes waiting on the phone he gets back on and says that they cannot stop the delivery or change the address. So I tell him to just cancel the order so I can go buy new clothes somewhere else. He says he can't do that either until all the packages have been delivered. He said that if I want to wait for a couple days he can open a ticket to send ups and fedex back out to retrieve the packages and then once they are back at Kohl's they will reissue my money. Or I could try and contact the home owners of the address they delivered too and try and get them to send the packages to me... REALLY! Now I have to drive across four cities to retrieve my own packages???
So after going back and forth with this so-called supervisor I told him I wanted to talk with his supervisor and he tells me that his supervisor does not take calls. So I ask him for that supervisor's name and again he tells me that I cannot have the name or ID# and he does not take calls. So I ask for Corporate's number and he tells me that he does not have that number and if he did he could not give it out.
So I am really upset now because I have no clothes and they will not refund me the money until they get the items back. So now I have to hope that the home owners there are willing to give the clothes back so I can get my money back. I tell the so-called supervisors that this is joke, that Kohl's is a JOKE and that he is a worthless JOKE of a supervisor. I tell him that I will be calling Corporate and speaking with them, he says sorry again and "Do you have any more questions"?? So I hang up the phone!
I call corporate and they send me to Kohls.com CS. I speak with this lady and she tells me that there is nothing she can do at this time until all the items are sent back to Kohl's. She tells me that once they are that I can order more stuff with the correct address. I tell her that I will never order from Kohls.com again because of this big screw up and that I am getting no customer service. She tells me "Sorry to hear that" and "Is there any other questions I can assist you with at this time"??? WOW. KOHLS.COM is never getting my business again!!!

Actually, I'm really glad I DON'T have in store credit now after all these reviews I've read, apparently the security is nearly nonexistent. ;-) I was really excited when I went into the store because I was assured I'd get 15% off my purchase if I APPLIED for in store credit. I needed a winter coat! So... we aren't talking a $15.00 purchase here!!! Well, I was REJECTED! I have NEVERRR been rejected for in store credit anywhere. When I was at the checkout for nearly a half hour only to find out not only was I rejected, I had to go back to trying on more coats and spend more time because I did the calculations with that 15% discount in mind coming into the store.
Needless to say I was there long enough to know not only was I NOT returning as a result of being rejected. I don't do business with stores that don't want my money so. NUFF SAID! So, why would Kohl's reject a law abiding, non-thief citizen, yes with bad credit but DOES pay her bills and NOT HAVE AN INTACT SECURITY SYSTEM? Isn't that like putting thousands of dollars into a pocket with a hole in it???

On August 5, 2016 I ordered 4 ceramic/stone seahorse candle holders and a Ravens sofa protector. A big box arrived on August 11 with only the 4 (3 were badly broken, 1 was somewhat broken) candle holders. I called their customer service. After a number of probing questions and verifying my info, the rep asked if I could return them to the store. I asked if they could pick them back up as I ordered online since the store is a distance away and traffic is heavy during the week. She said I should keep them and reorder when they come back in stock. I told her they were on summer clearance. She told me she was sure they would be back in stock soon, just keep checking.
The rep asked if I received the sofa protector and I told her I did not but tracking info said it was in a separate package moving through the FedEx postal service. She said "do not worry, it will be there next week". That Sunday I drove to the Kohl's store (less busy traffic day) to return and hopefully exchange if they had any there. The clerk told me they had been on clearance and would not be getting them again! The sofa protector tracking info said on August 15 delivery was made at 1:24pm to addressee in Port Orange Florida. I live in Leland, North Carolina. Tracking info showed the package left Pennsylvania and went to Hagerstown, Maryland and then to West Virginia and then to Georgia and finally to Port Orange, Florida (wherever that is).
I called Kohls.com customer service again about never receiving the sofa protector and the rep told me to ask neighbors and call the local post office. She said she would open a case and they would email me the results. She verified my address and said they did ship it to my address in Leland, North Carolina. I contacted local post office, laughed when I gave them the tracking number as they could read all of the states and places the package went to but never North Carolina. I received an email from Kohls.com that contained the tracking number and told me it had been delivered August 15 at 1:24pm so I needed to look for it in my neighborhood or at the post office. Have a nice day! (with the great explanation mark).
Guess they felt they had charged me and it was delivered. Although not even close to my state so they got their money and who cares if I did not receive my merchandise I paid for. I immediately called and waited almost 40 minutes on hold until I spoke to a young man who saw that the delivery was made August 15 at 1:24pm but many miles away. He told me FedEx had messed up and they would reopen (?) the case. Really surprised it had been closed. He said they would try to get the item back and send on to me or have me rebuy it and they would provide the same discount I used and free shipping this time.
Well I had free shipping and a 30% discount originally and I told him I had been charged for this and you can see I never received it as I do not live in Florida. He said they had the right address for me in Leland, North Carolina and the first email rep should have never closed the case and emailed for me to look for it myself but they now had to try to find the item and get it to me if they could but in the meantime I wait for an answer. I asked him to request someone call me but he said they always investigate and email their decision. Well I told him I am very disappointed in Kohl's as I am being charged for a $45 item that is in Florida through their shipping error. I think it would only be fair to credit back my money as I do not want that sofa protector that traveled 5 states in 11 days and in someone else's home. Will they return it, and who wants it after all that.
To me this company is very disorganized and not concerned at all when they make mistakes. The email rep put the tracking number, the date and time it said it was delivered and did not notice I live in North Carolina and it was delivered somewhere in Port Orange, Florida (wherever that is) so she tells me to ask neighbors and call the post office and look for it! AMAZING RESPONSE. Most importantly the charge is on my card and there is no one else I can talk to as they only have phone customer people who email the decision makers who email their opinions.
First package was not properly secured with fragile items inside. The box had a lot of empty space so the candle holders certainly moved about and hit each other. No one cared to properly pack them. Second package ends up many states away. WOW!!!!! Pathetic company to order online from them. I would like an explanation and deserve an apology! Not to mention credit back for these items!!!

I received snail mail about my account and called customer service to close it. I was on hold for 2 hours and 15 minutes and never got to talk to anyone! There is no way a company can claim they care about customers when their customer service staffing is so low it can't answer the phone in over 2 hours. Perhaps when I selected "close account" on the voice response menu -- and they automatically directed me to wait for a service rep -- they deliberately didn't answer the phone to keep me from closing it. At best they are the worst customer care company in the US; at worst they deceptive and unethical.

I had my Kohl's charge card fraudulently used on 8/5/16. I caught the phony charge when I checked my online Kohl's account. I called customer service to report the phony charge. They said they would send me a new card within 30 days, but that I could still charge purchases with a temporary Kohl's number. I never received a temporary number. Today, 8/13/16 I went online just to see how my purchase would go through. Of course, it didn't. I called customer service to place my order. After being transferred 4 times and repeating my personal information each time, I placed my order and was given an order number, but it wouldn't go through. I was transferred again.
I finally talked to a supervisor who said that she didn't want me to leave without having my problem resolved. She gave me the phone number for the fraud department in case I got disconnected. I got disconnected after being transferred for the 4th time. The supervisor said she would call me back in case I got disconnected after being transferred again. She did not call me back. After 42 minutes of being placed on hold after hold, I talked to the most rude and thoughtless person in the fraud dept. She told me that I absolutely could not make my purchase today. These people should get together and get their stories straight. For the first time ever, I hung up in anger.

Long story short, the cashier tells me that I was going to get a discount on my purchase just for signing up for their credit card. Never told me that they were going to use that card towards my purchase. Some time later I get a letter saying that I owe them money. I called their customer service to explain what happened and they showed no signs of wanting to help.

Let me begin by saying that I totally understand that when you use Kohl's cash or a Special Offer Coupon, your return amount will be less than the sale price. However, on the receipt, it clearly states the item price, sale price, the amount of Kohl's cash applied to THAT ITEM, and the amount of the the special $10 coupon that was applied to that item. It then lists "RETURN AMOUNT". Here's my example... Item price $26.00, Sale price $17.99, Special Offer $10 - $0.41, Kohl's Cash $20 - $0.83. Return Amount $17.58. (This already doesn't make sense since the return amount seems to be $16.75 when you do the math. However, that is what is stated on the receipt.)
When I returned my items today, the cashier then deducted the entire $10.00 special offer coupon. When I argued that a portion of the $10 was distributed among the $400 worth of items I had previously bought, she told me that "was corporate's policy". This is the second time that I had this happen. The first time, I wrote it off to an error. Even if you do the math, the return price at the very least should have been $16.75 each.
I'm so annoyed and feel totally ripped off! How can the receipt state one thing and then when you return it, they do something completely different? Keep your coupons. Keep your Kohl's Cash. Keep your inventory. Not going back! PS - I gave one star only because I had to. I would have preferred to rate it as a ZERO. On to every other site I can complain on.

In Spring, 2015 I purchased items (table linens) valued at just over $20 at the Kohl's within 10 miles of my home in North Carolina using my Kohl's charge card. In previous years I had received a paper bill from Kohl's, which was mailed to my home address, and I paid the bill within 30 days. In Spring, 2016, I was checking my credit report and unexpectedly found a negative account from Kohl's listed on my credit report and that I owed Kohl's in excess of $200 in late fees and interest charges. I called Kohl's immediately to find out why. I was told by their representative that my address in their system was an address in Colorado.
I was also informed that the bill for this Spring, 2015 charge had been sent to the address in Colorado and the bills were never returned for correct address to Kohl's, therefore I was responsible to pay for these fees & interest charges. I never received a bill for this charge at my home address where I have owned my home for over 2 decades.
I have never lived in Colorado, have never authorized ANY company to change my address from my home address in NC, and have never authorized anyone else to change my address in the past 2 decades. I do not know anyone at the Colorado address where the Kohl's bills were sent nor would I expect residents at that address to know me. I have only shopped at the NC Kohl's Department store and used my Kohl's charge card there. Last month I paid the amount I owed to Kohl's over the phone (I have not yet received the Kohl's bill at my home address).
I have requested numerous investigative cases at Kohl's requesting them to correct these erroneous fees and charges and have been told continuously that their records are accurate and that I owe them the late fees and interest charges. It is not correct business practice to charge late fees and interest in excess of $200.00 for this purchase when Kohl's did not send the bill to the proper address. In addition to the excessive late fees and interest charges, my excellent credit history has been negatively affected.

Even worse, they said they record the conversations and when I was talking with someone at 8.00 am today June 27, he said I will charge me only for this time if I pay today only $10.00 late fees, but I hung up the phone by accident and I call again and what a surprise that the guy in the morning send me to collections and the lady in Texas Lissa told me that is nothing in the system about the $10.00 late fees instead of the $25.00.

Opening a Kohl's credit card was the biggest mistake I've ever made. I use my Chase account to make payments on the card and for whatever reason, Kohl's isn't receiving these payments. The money is being deducted from my account and I have no idea where it's going. I started receiving calls early last week saying that my account is overdue for a payment. I had no idea how this was possible because I haven't used it for several months. I had no idea the payments I was making weren't being processed through Kohl's.
I called the customer service number and talked to several different people within the last week and I still haven't gotten it resolved. They wanted me to show them proof of payment by faxing in my bank statement (which I feel is a violation of my privacy) and when asked if I can email it, they told me no. It's a total inconvenience for me to fax this over to them since I don't own a fax machine.
Even after I spoke to someone and explained the situation, the customer service rep told me that she put a note that my account is under investigation and that I will stop receiving phone calls and emails. Guess what? I STILL receive phone calls/emails from debt collectors even though I'm trying to get this resolved. I've already made ANOTHER call to them and they told me it should take 24-48 hours for them to receive confirmation. I am one step away from calling my bank and reporting them as fraudulent because I've made my payment and I have proof.

I bought a pair of boots on Kohls.com. They were $265.00. I used a 30% off coupon and Kohl's Cash and my grand total was $196.63, put on my Kohl's charge. Boots ended up having a defect, according to the manufacturer who I contacted first because I already know Kohl's return/exchange process is anything but hassle-free. So I contact customer service via the online chat, they told me if I return them at the store and call their 800# to reorder them, referencing our chat session. They would make sure I had all my discounts applied so it would be like an even exchange.
I go to the store and they will only refund me $164.37. Apparently, when you use Kohl's cash and need to return something, you pay out of pocket for an item you don't have. So about $30 difference I'm paying for something I don't have. Then when I reorder, they will only give me the 30% off the $265.00 price tag, then I will earn Kohl's cash for that purchase.
So here is how I see it. I paid $196.63, was refunded $164.37. Right there I am paying $32.26 for a defective item I don't even have. Then they want to charge me $203 for a replacement pair. So I'm paying $235.26 for a pair of boots I would never have even bought had I not had Kohl's cash. I absolutely refuse to shop at their store ever again. I am cancelling my Kohl's charge and letting them know exactly where they can put their Kohl's Cash. Most horrible, misleading "reward" program I have ever dealt with in my whole life.

She kept asking what I bought and what color the items were. She said items were only held for 24 hours! I asked her to call a manager.
The manager looked in "the back" where other bags were apparently stored. (The Customer Service Desk wasn't aware of this.) After a few minutes (and after mangling my name numerous times), the Manager told me he couldn't find my clothing. I told him I had now wasted 3 hours and had no clothes. The best he could do was give me a $10 store credit and have an Associate "recreate" the purchase. This is ridiculous - I had tried on many items and didn't remember the brand or styles I eventually chose. Plus many of the items were the only one of its kind in the store. The Manager asked me the name of the cashier. How many shoppers actually remember the name of the cashier? He then said he knew who had served me because he had had trouble with him before. I called Kohl's and registered a complaint. I wonder how long it will take to hear back. I think the store should give me a $50 store gift card. I'd still rather just have the clothes.

Originally, I was told the KMC would arrive in 14-30 days. When it didn't arrive, I was told to give it another 14-30 days. When it didn't arrive by March, I was told to give it 14 days longer. When it didn't arrive by April, I was told to give it until April 21, 2016. I went away on a trip and returned May 20. When I inquired about the now 5-month overdue payment, they said I used it in Dundee, IL and posted the inquiry as SOLVED!
I informed them that the address on file is TEXAS and not Illinois. My post box is locked and inaccessible to others, that I wanted proof of the redemption and by whose authority and who verified that it was me using the KMC. Response is now: "Thanks for your quick response. Just as I expected, it seems that the KMC we sent you was stolen while in the processing of being delivered to you. I will make a follow up report about this issue and submitted the additional details you provided to our refunds team. You will receive a separate email once the result of investigation is available. We look forward to provide you service again in the future. Have a great day!" I'm fed up and making a formal complaint to the BBB, Consumer Services and FTC. This is not acceptable!

I was shopping online and wanted to use my Kohl's cash. The coupon had expired by one day and I was told by Kohl's credit that I could not use the cash coupon online, but that it would be honored in the store for up to 26 days after expiration. I went to the store and the cashier said that she could not honor it after nine days. I called for the manager and she said they could not honor it after 13 days. Now I have three different stories about when it can be used. I asked the manager to please use great customer service and honor it, as the Kohl's Office said they would.
She refused and said that she was not allowed to key in any changes. I told her I was going to complain to Kohl's and then all of a sudden she said that she would "override" the coupon and honor it. Funny how quick she was to change her mind. POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE - wasted more than a half an hour of my time and hers. I then called Kohl's Customer Service to complain and all they could say was so sorry but there was nothing they could do and did I need help with anything else.

I ordered an outfit from Kohl's and paid for the most expensive shipping because I needed for a meeting. I also ordered from DSW and JCPenney at the same time for the same outfit. DSW and JCPenney delivered as promised and when I got home no Kohl's. When I called, customer service blamed it on the carrier and not only did the outfit not make it on that day it was two more business days away. No other store has this problem. It is them trying to use cheaper solutions but still charging you the customer. Never again.

Strongly recommend that you don't shop online with Kohl's! Go to the store instead. I placed an order online at Kohl's for $100 so I could earn $20 in Kohl's cash. When I received my order which was only for 6 items, 2 items were missing, one item was not the same SKU number and one was not the size I ordered. I called the customer service number and was told that I would have to go to the store to exchange the wrong item. I was also told that the 2 missing items showed at my post office and would deliver on Monday. I told the CSR that my packing list showed all of the items were included in the package and he told me that I would get a separate package. So... I waited.
I waited two days for the other package to arrive. Nothing. I called back and was told "Nooo. Everything was shipped in one package." Déjà vu? I explained what the other rep told me and she just laughed. I was told that an investigation would happen and I would be notified via email. The next day, I get an email stating that they show the "package" delivering on 5/13 and I need to call my post office to put a claim through. GRRR. So, I respond back and repeat my story again about missing two items in my shipment. I am told that I will be refunded the items that didn't ship, less $10 because without those purchases, I dropped below the $50 that earned me the Kohl's cash. I already used the $20 Kohl's cash, but now they are going to reduce my $20 refund by $10, so I am basically out $10 because of their shipping error. Not to mention that when I went back to spend my $20 in Kohl's cash, I actually spent over that amount.
In addition, if you order online, you can return for a refund, not an exchange. Plus, if you go to the store to make an exchange, the item you select for the exchange must be for the exact same amount as the item you are exchanging or they will need to refund which will result in loss of Kohl's cash (if applicable). I dealt with this when they didn't have the item to replace the one that was shipped incorrectly. I can't make this up folks! Kohl's is a large company, but they are way behind the market with their online purchasing capabilities and customer service. This lady will not be shopping online with Kohl's any time soon!

My husband purchased me a new wedding ring by Cherish Always I saw at Kohl's and fell in love with back in 2010. In February 2012 a couple of the diamonds fell out. I had previously been advised that Cherish Always stands behind their jewelry and their guarantee/warranty and if you have the item repaired elsewhere it voids the warranty. Since there are no Cherish Always repair offices I went back to Kohl's. They felt awful about the ring and immediately advised that they would send the ring back for repair. They took the ring, gave me a receipt and it wasn't long before a box came to me by UPS from Kohl's. Cherish Always was unable to repair the ring they said. So they sent me a brand new one, same style of course. They assured me that as long as they carried that style the ring would just be replaced if anything happened. The ring had even gone on sale again and they refunded me the difference as well.
Well, now 4 years later I have a missing diamond. So I head off to Kohl's with all my receipts, everything including the missing diamond and the box they shipped the ring to me in back in 2012. I went to the jewelry counter and after waiting 20 minutes while the 2 girls there assisted the same customer, one girl walked over to another customer who just walked up to assist her. That customer told her I was there first and so she then came to me. Now they tell me their return policy has changed; however they still advertise on their website "Hassle Free Returns." She then called her supposed "manager" over who said they could no longer send the ring off as they don't have a repair place. I said I know Kohl's doesn't, it needs to go to Cherish Always. She said they can no longer do that and also advised me that the missing stone I had was not even a diamond.
Wait. You are selling a product that you can't stand behind? Cherish Always only distributes through retailers as they don't have shops of their own. I then went to "Customer Service" as they call it but should be called "we really don't care about our customers department" and asked for a manager and explained everything to her or tried. As I was speaking to her she was talking to another customer who was on the Kohl's phone with customer support and then the manager just walked away and took the phone from the other lady customer and assisted her on the phone then came back to me as if she had not just walked away from me. She said there was nothing they could do for me except if I wanted I could return my ring and repurchase it. Sure at more than twice the amount my husband originally purchased it for. The so called manager said "let me get your name and number and I will ask some questions and get back to you."
I left the information with her and as I was leaving the store there she was in the center aisle with the so called jewelry manager and my piece of paper with my information. That was May 7, 2016 and I haven't heard a word from anyone. I am currently trying to find a number for Kohl's Corporate Headquarters or at least an email address as I wouldn't give them a 1 star rating if I didn't have to. No wonder they are closing some of their stores. Maybe they just need to retrain their staff on what true Customer Service really means and then stand behind their advertising and promises.

I purchased shoes from Kohl's and used my 30% off coupon, along w/ my free $5 reward (which I earned through their rewards program). In my opinion, the shoes should be 30% off THEN apply the $5 reward. I earned that $5 by spending a lot of money at Kohl's, and should be able to use that money along with any sales they're running including a 30% off sale. Instead Kohl's likes to charge its customers more! So instead of giving me 30% off, they deducted my savings to half of what the 30% off should've been (since I was also using my $5 reward) which is completely shady!!! They're not actually rewarding me, and half my $5 reward went to cover the amount that the 30% should've taken off!
Their coupons and policies are so misleading. I refuse to shop there any longer. They've also told my husband and I back in January when we used Kohl's Cash and Gift cards (the gift cards were a Xmas gift), that we couldn't use both! When I called customer service their answer was "It's up to individual stores to decide their onsite policy." Oh so no corporate policy on this so stores rip you off whenever.

Wish I had known about this site earlier to read the reviews for Kohl's. Would have saved me a lot of grief and headaches. Purchased a bedding ensemble for a gift on 5/2/16 and paid with personal check which cleared my bank the next day 5/3/16 and money was deducted from my account. Went back to Kohl's in Hickory, NC on 5/6/16 to return for a refund since the recipient did not like the colors. C/S would not give me a cash refund, said I had to wait 7 to 10 days before returning. I took it back again on 5/12/16 and they still would not give me a refund. They said they could ask for a corp. check which would take a week to 10 days to receive. I told them I could not wait that long, that I needed the cash now to purchase another gift.
Nowhere on the receipt or their website does it say there is a 7 to 10 day wait. The receipt says "Hassle-Free Returns" return any item, anytime, for any reason. I was told to come back tomorrow to see if their computer would show a cash refund available. So far I have made 2 trips (total of 50 miles round trips) and now I have to make a third trip (25 miles) to make a return that should not have taken 10 minutes to complete the first time. This cannot even be classified as "customer service" as they give no service. When and if I get this settled, they won't have to worry about seeing me in their store ever again. I have never had such an awful experience trying to make a return at any other store.

They are refusing to reship & are fighting me on a refund. I'm not sure how you can more clearly point out that it was an error on their end than to have photo evidence, but apparently that is not clear enough for them.

Sorry for the wall of text that is about to be spill across your screen, but my story is a tale of woe and should be told in its entirety. It all started out when I went to Kohl's on a rainy November night in 2015. I was looking to purchase a new KitchenAid mixer and take advantage of the Kohl's Cash offer they had going on. I went to the store and was successful in this endeavor, but this is where the happy story ends and the terror begins. I come home, with product and Kohl's Cash in hand and immediately hop on their website to figure out what I want to spend this $105 on. My wife and I look at some new bedding and decide on a nice set. So when the Kohl's Cash became available to use a week later, I ordered the bedding set and waited for it to arrive.
A package showed up a few weeks later and it was getting close to Christmas so we put it under the tree and figured we'd open it Christmas morning. When Christmas morning arrives and we open it, we find the most hideous pink and black striped comforter set that we have ever seen. I look at the packing slip that was inside the package and it has someone's name from New York (keep in mind I am in Washington State) and the description of the product was Jungle Queen - Queen Size. What we ordered was a Midnight Wolf - King Size. They couldn't have got it much more wrong... Wrong state, wrong person, wrong style, wrong size.
So the next morning I call the online reps and explain what has happened, and they instruct me to take it to the Kohl's closest to me and they will take care of the problem. It turns out this was a lie just to get me off the phone. The Kohl's rep in the store said they have no way of pulling up online information and that they couldn't process the return because what I was returning wasn't what I ordered... But they tell me they will process the return for the person in New York. At this point they put me on the phone with the Kohls.com reps again and the reps say they are sorry and that they will mail out a gift card for the full amount of the Kohl's Cash I used plus the out of pocket expense plus the discount amount.
I wait 2 weeks... 3 weeks... 4 weeks... Nothing from Kohls.com in the mail. So I call them back, and tell the story to the new rep, this rep tell me to take down a number (their ticket number) to go to the store, and the rep there will help. So I go back to the store, and tell the rep there what I was told and the rep gets a look on her face that says "Oh no, not this again" and explains that they have no way of pulling up the ticket, that the online store and physical stores are basically 2 different companies under the Kohl's name. She puts me back on the phone with a rep who I have to tell the whole story to again. And again they apologize and say they will get the refund sent out immediately.
2 weeks go by... 3 weeks... 4 weeks... I hop on to their website and have a chat session with "Steve". I go through the whole story again, and Steve assures me he will get it resolved. In the end he again instructs me to go to the store and that they will finally be able to assist me. So like a fool, I go back to the store and again am told that they cannot help and put me on the phone with another rep who I tell the story to again. I am told I will get the full refund plus free rushed shipping and 30% off my next order for all the inconvenience.
2 weeks go by... 3 weeks... NO! I am not waiting 4 weeks. I call and ask to speak to a manager. After retelling the story for what feels like the millionth time, she tells me she will make sure it gets taken care of but that I need to go to the store so they can issue the credit. I start to argue that I wasn't going to go to the store AGAIN, but she said that when I get there to have the rep call them and they will walk the rep through how to do the refund. So I trudge out to the store, and the rep there begins to say the same thing about how they can't handle the online issues, but I explain what I was told so they call and talk to a rep. After some back and forth, I get put back on the line. I then give the phone back to the rep (who by the way was extremely nice) and she asks a bunch of questions to the phone rep.
I am told that I can either have the product shipped or get a Kohl's card with the amount on it. I tell them that ultimately I just want the product that I paid for back in November (this is now early March). They said they will ship the product and also refund all out of pocket costs, but in order to process they needed to take a payment of $20 some odd dollars, but that they would refund my card $50+ (the original out of pocket expense plus the $20 I was paying now). Come to present day, and my package arrives. I open it and lo and behold, it is what I ordered. I decide to check my account to see if they have refunded me the 50 odd dollars... Of course not... But that is a tale for another day (like when I get the money back).

It is unfair that when a consumer places an order online, Kohl's swipes your C/Card or Debit Card immediately and secures the funds immediately. But when you return an item to the store or otherwise, it takes over a week to see your refund back in your account. To me this is like stealing. Several other department stores have adopted the same policy and it is WRONG. You took the money from our accounts immediately regardless of whether Kohl's or others knew there was stock on hand constituting a back order. Why not return the same practice to the consumer who makes a legitimate return?
Kohl's utilizes an automatic transaction recall method. Home Depot and Lowe's makes the return instantly on your Credit or Debit Card. So what is Kohl's or Marshall's doing? Keeping customer's funds to float checks and payments to their vendors? I not only don't agree with keeping customer's money for an extended period of time; I don't agree with their greedy practices and unethical business practices for their own gain.

I will not shop Kohl's again as they cannot train the employees at the return desk- have a manager come and help them as they try to figure it out themselves. I will not be back again once I get my return. I would rather pay more in other retailers as you do get what you pay for. Worst experience ever. Crazy thing is I work in retail and understand that the importance of keeping your receipt if you need to return and to be patient if someone is new. The problem is that I also know that the customer should not pay.

One month after receiving my tax return I contacted my 8 credit card companies to pay off all the balances. Kohl's was one of them, I contacted their automated system which told me I had a zero balance so I went off and paid all my other cards. I work at a financial institution which made me want to review my credit score where I noticed a little note informing me I have a missed payment with Kohl's. I quickly went online and checked my balance on my laptop where I found I had a zero balance so I happily left on my vacation.
When I came back from vacation I noticed an email stating I had a late charge on my Kohl's card. I quickly called Kohl's to resolve this matter. I sure did not mind a measly $15 charge. What I did mind is a note on my credit score which Miquisha or whatever her phone name is was not understanding. I did not want to argue but her demeanor was so uptight. I am so upset with this company especially since I always pay my card before I leave the store that day. Like come on... A stupid small balance store credit card why wouldn't I mind paying it? Oh yeah and I bet Kohl's phone services are noted/recorded when a customer contacts the call center like any other call center so I don't understand why she was giving me a hard time. I definitely called a few weeks earlier.

Last night went to Kohl's. Bought a $225.00 14 kt gold chain. Three tops. In my catalogue was a ten dollar coupon for $30.00 off junior apparel. Because one of my tops were not juniors, they would not let me use the coupon. I have combined clothing all women's and used a coupon from the catalogue like that several times. So I spend over $200.00 almost $300.00. REALLY won't take a ten dollar coupon. Amazing. Very dissatisfied.

Kohl's is a fake!! Kohl's advertises products for a certain discount. However, Kohl's overprices their products and then offer a discount which does nothing more than lowers the price to the original price of other retailers. Kohl's should be ashamed of themselves. Why would a consumer take their business to Kohl's. Kohl's feels that the average shopper is incompetent enough to figure out the strategy that Kohl's has put into operation.

Kohls.com doesn't even deserve a half star. They are rude, disorganized and from one week to another they can never update their information. I have ordered twice from there and both time I have received an email stating that my order cannot be processed. When I call to find out why it is the same thing over and over. My information seems to not get changed and I have to answer the same question over and over. So I will no longer order from them again. Oh and when I get off the phone with them I receive another email stating I can pick up my order. So why go through all this BS in the first place. When you have Kohl's cash don't bank on it. They still want you to put in your credit card information even though the Kohl's cash covers everything. CROOKS... I better not see any charges on my bank account or I will get a lawyer!!!

My first Online pick up experience Order # ** with Kohl's. Ordered 2 eye masks for $12. Went to the store the next day. Had the receipt and credit card showed all my stuff in my wallet and this nasty women Karla would not let me have my purchase. This is in the back of the store and it is raining outside. She had to have a photo ID which I had left in my car. For 12 dollar purchase give me a break. I grabbed my receipt and went back to my car, found my Drivers license and came back inside and asked for a manager.
There was a lady at the front who went with me back to the back of the store. When we get there less than 10 minutes had passed and Karla had decided to accidentally Cancel my purchase to make sure I would not get what I had already paid for. This meant I had to pay for it again to get it from this fat mean lady. She did just about everything to make this the worst experience possible. She should have this complaint put in her file, so that the next time her boss can know what Karla is doing to customers back there. Can someone send this to corporate as well. What should have been quick and easy turned into a real mess and I hope someone has an accident back at her for the way she treats people.

I went to Kohl's the other day because my husband, son and I needed outfits for a funeral for a close family member. I get to the checkout and had spent $185.00 on three outfits. Kohl's had a 20% off coupon that had expired the day before if I used my charge. Then they were giving 15% the day after our purchase. Every time I have shopped at Kohl's and used my charge, the sales associate would always give me some sort of discount for using my charge. This associate did nothing and couldn't have cared less that we were spending close to $200.00 when we clearly could not have shopped the day before or the day after due to arrangements and the funeral. I am disgusted with Kohl's. I will be paying off my charge and no longer shopping there. Kohl's, you just lost a loyal customer over a few percent off. You jack up your prices above what they should be anyway. So now you can keep your junk.

My online order from Kohl's was a huge pain from beginning to end. First, when I tried to place my order, it was automatically cancelled because I have a different shipping and billing address. This has never been a problem for me on any other website. (Couldn't they at least put the order on hold rather than cancelling it if this is such a problem?) When I called customer service to try and resolve this problem, I was told that not only are my two addresses different, but my actual home address where I live is invalid because their system shows I don't live there.
So finally, I agreed to ship it to my parents' address (my billing address) and they connected me with something to help place my order again. Turns out in the less than 24 hours it had been since I placed my order, half my items were out of stock! After being repeatedly transferred to people (and I had to explain my story again to each of them), I was offered a 20% discount on my new order. However, I was told there was absolutely no way to do this online, so I had to do the whole thing on the phone. This was a painstakingly slow process, as I had to dictate all of my new order information to the sales rep, who was kind but very slow and somewhat hard of hearing. This whole phone process took about 2 hours.
About a week later, I got a call from Kohl's again asking me for my parents' names and phone number so that they could be contacted about receiving a delivery that day. I asked if the package could be delivered without a signature, and they told me no, it had to have a signature and they had to confirm the delivery time with my parents. I finally convinced them that I would call my parents myself. The package was delivered later that day without a signature - my parents were home all day and no one knocked on the door.
Finally, I received the package. I only liked one of the items, so I sent the rest back. Unlike every other online company I have ordered from, I had to pay my own return shipping. No free label was provided. The entire process was a huge hassle and extremely frustrating. I have ordered clothes from many other websites and never had any of these problems. I cannot discourage you strongly enough - DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE FOR ONLINE ORDERS!!

I placed an online Kohl's order and used an online promo code that was sent to me by email. I received order confirmation and was expecting my product any day in mail. However, four days later I get a cancellation email with no reason as to why my order had been cancelled. I call Kohl's customer service and was told the item I purchased did not qualify for a promotion. I told them that I've ordered online before and if an item is excluded it will say it in my cart - for instance Nike products will automatically say "this item does not qualify". I was not made aware that my item did not qualify. I told them I placed item in my cart, applied discount code, received confirmation and because their system glitched that "I" as the customer have to reap the consequences, they went on to say they are held to pricing and can't override the system.
For those of us that own the business can say that would be up to Kohl's and the manufacturer to work out, not the customer losing out. Kohl's made be held to map pricing and can be dropped as a distributor for product bring below cost but Kohl's should have stood behind their mistake and made it right by honoring price and item I purchased not canceling order four days later. It wasn't cancelled an hour after order was placed. It wasn't cancelled 24-48 hours after order was placed. It was cancelled by KOHL'S four day after receiving confirmation. That is wrong and Kohl's should stand behind their mistake whether it was a human error or computer error.

I am sharing my experience with Kohls.com purchasing so others do not fall for the same thing. I placed three orders total on Kohl's website in second half of November 2015. Order 1 (~$18): Order online pick-up in store - placed for pajamas - two days later I received a letter stating the order is cancelled. No comments on why. I called the customer service - they said "item is not available". I checked their website and it still said the item is available. :)
Order 2 (~$12): Order online pick-up in store - placed for another pajamas that said available and verified by their customer service rep on phone - did not hear anything for about 3 days on when should I pick-up the order. I checked the order status online - it said "order cancelled". Called the customer service - I was told "item is not available" - same thing again, online the item was still stocked.
Order 3: (~$740): Ordered online on November 29, 2015 to ship home: order for two self balancing hoverboards and one pajama pant. Received Pajama pant on December 21, 2015. When packet was opened, it was curtain valance instead of pajama pants. Called the customer service and he refunded the money after few days.
Received hoverboard on December 9, 2015. It was only one hoverboard instead of two - the size was smaller than what was on the order (6.5 inch instead of 10 inch). I called the customer service on December 10, 2015 to ask when is the second one coming. The response was "both hoverboards are in the same packet". I told them it is not true because the packet is in front of me and it's one. Also, the packaging slip said shipping weight of ~22 pounds which was consistent to item description on their website and weight of one hoverboard. After about half hour argument, the lady agreed to check on this and get back to me. No response for few days.
I called back on December 14, 2015. The customer service responded they have made inquiry from their vendor who supplies/ships the product - it should take about 7-10 days to get response and have the item shipped or money refunded. Note that the item was bought for my children as a Christmas gift which they were really disappointed on not getting.
On December 26, 2015: I called again since it was over 10 days. The response was that they are still waiting to hear back from the vendor. Please call back after few days. At this time, I asked them to refund money since I placed an order with Kohls.com not with their vendors. I explained to them that their vendors is their problem not mine. After a long argument, the representative transfers me to another department to process refund - another 45 minutes of discussion and I was assured that the money will be refunded and deposited in my account within 24 hours.
After about 11 days, the money was still not credited my account (Kohl's charge). I called Kohl's credit card company explaining that I am waiting for the credit to my account for item that was never shipped to me so I should be allowed to not pay the monthly bill until my account is adjusted (only the $349.99) but Kohl's credit card company told me in clear words that if I don't pay full amount, I will be responsible for late payment/interest charges per my terms and conditions. It doesn't matter if I am waiting for Kohls.com to refund my money.
So on January 6, 2016: I called customer service again and received the same response that they are waiting to hear back from vendor. At this time, I was frustrated so I asked the agent to let me speak with their supervisor. After about half hour wait, the supervisor comes on and asks me to go through all details that I have to supply every time I call them. It takes good 2 - 3 minutes to verify your information. Then the supervisor sings the same story as their original customer service rep. I asked to be escalated to their next level supervisor - another 15 - 20 minutes wait - goes into their voice mail. I left the message to contact me back with phone number and email address. No response.
Later I called again - same exercise - this time I got the representative's name (Bee **) and also asked for Supervisor's name (Joshua **). Left message again. I asked the rep to also leave a note for the supervisor - no response for another few days. On January 15, 2016: called again - same story about waiting from the vendor. After a lot of arguments, I was told that this time the credit will appear in my account within 7 - 10 days.
No credit in my account, so I called on January 25, 2016: they are still waiting to hear from the vendor. This time I told them that I will file a complaint against Kohls.com - the customer service representative was Jennifer. She transferred me to her supervisor (Andrea). She told me that she is going to open a manual ticket to refund my money back (I already paid the Kohl's credit card by this point). I asked for confirmation of acceptance and processing of manual ticket - she told me that she has to wait for another department to process it. I offered to be on call for as long as it takes that day. She responded asking for my cell phone number with a promise to call me back in an hour or two with confirmation. When I said, I don't trust anymore, she said "Don't worry Mr. **, I will not go home today until I call you - this is my promise to you." I fell for it. Obviously, no call for few more days.
Called back on February 10, 2016: Representative: Rasheed (maybe my spelling is not correct). I was asked to call Corporate Refund Center at 1-800-837-0302. Called back on February 11, 2016: After providing all the details, I was referred back to another department for another 17 minutes wait on hold. Finally, Justin came on line and went through all my verification. He confirmed that my account will be credited for purchase price - Kohl's Cash. About $100 less than what I had paid about two and a half months ago.
Learned a lesson, never buying from Kohl's again. I will pay more at other store or leave without the item but no more Kohl's. I am writing this because overall, I spend about 15 hours to get my money back after two and a half months later. If my review helps anyone out there, I will consider my time writing this review is worth. Thanks.

Since then, they have added interest charges, late fees and Kohl's account ease charges (which I never signed up for). I called in Dec regarding the Kohl's account ease, was told it would be cancelled & refunded back for previous charges as well.

I have made in-store purchases and have only paid those bills. I will not pay any late charges or added fees due to their incompetent online business. No more online orders from this customer! This follows an earlier disagreement with them because they would not accept a personal check from me for my purchases because I did not have a past history of paying large amounts by check.

I requested manager that I am not interested in Kohl's cash, take back the Kohl's cash and give the gift receipt of the amount I paid. He said his system won't allow him to do that and he further added that he didn't wanted to explain things and said this is the way company works. So Kohl's cash is nothing.

I just want to say that I try not to complain about a place unless it's something that I feel should help the particular business in customer service or bring to attention things that might not be noticed by the manager of the establishment. I brought my elderly mother to the Kohl's store in Brighton, CO to look for a bra. There were thousands of bras to choose from, but my mom was pretty particular about the kind she wanted. There were NO sales associates anywhere in the area to ask for help, so I began to search for several styles of bras for my mom to try on. Every time I went out of the dressing room to search for more bras and the correct fit --- there were NO SALESPERSONS to be found! I was very frustrated having to look through tons of bras to try and find a particular style. It also appeared that a lot of the bras were seemingly not in their proper places.
I realize that customers get frustrated trying to find the right bra, and when they can't find it -- they just throw the ones they've looked at in a disorderly fashion. But that's where the responsibility of the department store comes in -- to hire enough associates to cover the various departments and train them to know their merchandise. It seems to me that Kohl's would staff employees who are able to help customers with their needs. I was extremely irritated and tired of going out to the sales floor to try to find a certain type of bra for my mom. And needless to say, she was getting very tired of waiting for me to come back with several other styles to try on and possibly choose from. I feel that if I would have had a customer service representative who was knowledgeable in the undergarments, we would have been much happier --- and most likely would have purchased items in the store.
On another note: as my mom and I were leaving the store, after about an hour of trying on bras --- I walked by a "young" sales associate who was standing by her merchandise pricing "cart"... only to notice that she held a cellphone in her hand and appeared to be using it to "text-message". It's sad that my mom and I felt like we were not worth the time of any employee of that store to even be greeted with a simple "Hello!" Absolutely the worst case of customer service I've seen in quite awhile. Message to KOHL'S: You may have fairly good prices on some things, but it's sad to say that I've had better customer service shopping at "lower" price stores. I hope that my review is helpful to both store management AND shoppers alike.

I ordered 2 pairs of denim leggings, a tunic and a blouse. 4 days after I submitted the order I got a email letting me know the blouse, my favorite item was out of stock. Why was it online and why did it take 4 days to let me know. I then started getting shipping confirmations. I went to the mailbox since the items weren't delivered to my door, I live in a condo. The items were all shipped separately and looked like they were thrown in the bottom of a plastic bag and sealed. I received everything except the tunic so I called FedEx, they told me it was delivered and to pretty much kick rocks! I then did a online chat with someone named Jeremy on Kohls.com and he said he would open a investigation and get back to me immediately.
I got a email the next morning saying it was delivered and gave me the tracking #. I was boiling by now! Who holds these people accountable? I then called customer service, sat on hold for 20 minutes to talk to a girl who then told me SHE had to open a investigation. I thought they already opened a investigation but I guess Jeremy did do as he promised. I then got the same line that it was delivered and to "look around my house" I explained, again that I live in a condo and I'm not going to knock on 300 people's doors.
With as big a company as Kohl's they should have issued me my refund no problem. Instead they put me through the ringer. Cost me hours I didn't have to waste for $40 dollars. This issue shouldn't have gone this far. And I am still waiting for my investigation to get my refund. I now have to go into a Kohl's store to return all the items I purchased online and waste more time. They should be ashamed of themselves for the horrible customer service and the headache they put people through for something that is a drop in the Kohl's bucket!

I ordered a set of Kitchen-Aid mixing bowls, they are a hard plastic kind of material. They arrived in a large plastic bag. When I picked the bag up off the porch, it made a terrible rattling sound. I was reminded only then of a previous Kohl's experience when I received an order of TV trays from them. Also very poorly packaged and terribly damaged. Their solution was to return them to the store or take them to UPS to have them sent back. These trays were extremely heavy and in no way would I have been able to maneuver them. I ended up keeping them but can only use 2 of them. And I will never get why we, the consumer, must be burdened with the problems created by the store. Back to the bowls. They weren't broken but badly scratched with the box completely torn apart. I will keep them rather than deal with customer (dis)service. But I'm done. Hopefully tweeting about this experience will make them sit up and take notice. I recommend it.

My partner bought me a beautiful ring from the Alton, IL store in November as a Christmas gift. He wasn't sure of my ring size. He didn't ask me because of it being a surprise. Knowing I like Kohl's, he went there. The sales associate told him they would size the ring up or down one size for free if needed. All I had to do was bring it back in and they would take care of it. The ring is one size too big. I took it back to the store and the rude associate told me there was nothing she could do for me and went straight to the next customer without letting me explain the situation. Why would they tell my partner they would do something, then refuse to do it. To make a sale? Or did she not know what she was talking about? I've worked in retail for a few years and would ask a coworker or a manager before giving a paying customer false information. Why should I go somewhere else and pay to have it sized when Kohl's said they would it?
We still have the receipt. I was going to return it and get a different ring or get the money back, but I'm not sure of the return policy. I love the ring and would like to keep it, but there's no point if it doesn't fit. Kohl's is one of my favorite stores to buy clothing, but I've had a bad taste in my mouth since this has happened. I sent this complaint to the company on Facebook and sent an email to customer service. I got feedback from a man named Dan in Facebook. He told me he was sorry for my inconvenience, that he would contact the management team at the store I went to and get the problem fixed. I live 30 miles from the store and it has been snowing, so I'm not sure when I'll be able to stop in, but I definitely will asap. The low rating is due to the jewelry associate's actions towards me and the fact that the problem wasn't resolved when I visited the first time. I will submit a higher review depending how the next visit goes and if my ring is sized correctly.

Contacted customer service regarding a pan and lid I ordered online. They were packaged in a plastic sack with no form of protection in the package. They were both damaged when received. They said I could return to the store--duh! They could reorder online for me but, could not promise that it wouldn't be packaged the same way. It is not available in a store near me so my problem was not solved.

It's difficult to be kind regarding my experience but I'll try. Suffice to say I contacted the Kohl's CS chat more than 6 times, spending more than 3 hours trying to resolve a broken delivery item which cost less than $20. I was lied to by two online chat reps who had about as much command of the English language as a Syrian foreign national. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER THING FROM KOHL'S and not only that, I cut up my Kolh's credit card and they can sue me for the $18 because I will never pay them for this item. Even though I was promised refunds multiple times, they never materialized. So much for Kohl's... Bye bye...

If I could give this zero stars I would. I ordered my items weeks before Christmas and when they finally arrived (a week after they were supposed to and 3 days before Christmas) I received the wrong item. I ordered stockings and received an ALARM CLOCK. The packing slip was correct but the item was wrong. I called immediately and the person told me my item was still on the truck when I had, in my hand, my packing slip. I called AGAIN an hour later and got someone else and he told me the same thing - that the item was still on the truck and that it will arrive by 7 pm or later. That night I received an email confirmation stating that ALL MY ITEMS WERE DELIVERED. DUH. I had the packing slip - there was no truck with my items.
SO I called again the next day and got yet another person. Explained my situation... She told me I needed to go to the Kohl's store to receive my refund. Now I have to find time to go to a Kohl's store, days before Christmas to return an item I DIDN'T EVEN ORDER. And when I said "well my packing slip has stockings on it and it won't match up with the item I'm returning..." Her answer was "the customer is always right." I asked to speak with a manager, was placed on hold for 20 minutes, no manager ever spoke to me. Instead, the representative said she was looking up the stockings at different Kohl's stores... They had one stocking in one town and another stocking in another town. Now I have to go to TWO different stores?
We got disconnected so I called back for the fourth time and got another person who then offered me a discount for my next purchase and expedited shipping. NO THANKS. I called a Kohl's store and talked to the manager and explained EVERYTHING. He was so understanding and I was able to get a refund plus my kohl's cash back. Then last week, silly me decided to see if I could reorder the stockings online. I ordered one, used my kohl's cash and was happy the stocking was now on sale.
A week later I get an email saying my order has been canceled due to the item not being in stock. I went online immediately and it still shows that I can order it. Again, I called customer service and she said that their inventory hasn't been updated yet. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I wonder how many people are ordering things and then getting their orders cancelled because of false advertising. I'm so LIVID at kohl's.com. I have been a customer for a long time and this experience has been the worst I have ever had to deal with with any company.

I have been attempting to order a shirt from Kohls.com. Every single time I've tried I've received a "order cancelled, item is out of stock" e-mail the next day. Four separate occasions I've done this, mind you, and each time the person who placed the order assured me that the item was in stock prior to my placing the order. The last time, I was assured that my order would be put on hold so when it came in stock that it would ship but apparently that's not true!
This is absolutely unacceptable. Kohl's is a big business that should conduct its affairs better. IF they cannot manage the very basics of online shopping management then they need to stop selling things online! If too many people have ordered an item then it should be registered as out of stock, they should not allow more people to order it! And their customer service reps (who are all overseas, by the way and don't seem to actually care about solving your issue) need to be trained better so that they do not make promises they cannot keep. This is not that difficult and it's making me question ever shopping at Kohl's again if they are this mismanaged as a company.

I purchased an item online. It arrived Friday, New Year's eve actually earlier than expected. When I opened it it was damaged. I called the store. They told me that I would have to return it to the store and purchase it again so it could be reshipped as it was an online item only, in which I did. So after repurchasing it I noticed the price went from 76 to 108.00. I called back immediately and was told it was because I had used Kohl's cash and a new discount applied. I thought to myself I am not making a new purchase, I am exchanging a damaged item they shipped me. When I complained they offered to give me 20 dollars of Kohl's cash toward my next purchase in which I quickly responded, after I had been treated there would be no future purchase from a store that tried to charge me 30.00 dollars more on a broken item exchange.
I asked for a supervisor who still was was rude and unhelpful and offered to correct the price but wanted me to purchase it again. I told him I did not feel comfortable with that, that I would return the item to the store and upon receipt he could ship the new one as I was in no rush to get it. He said they did not do that either. To make a long story short I cancelled the second order and will return the item today. Their complete incompetence cost them a long standing customer. How hard should it be to exchange an item???

Kohl's is obviously a fantastic retailer (one of my favorites in fact... I'm always recommending Kohl's to friends, acquaintances and business professionals) which is why I first checked Kohls.com this holiday season before spending a ton of money at my online favorite retail giant... Amazon. What a nightmare (and huge disappointment) my purchase experience at Kohls.com was, shockingly so... mostly because it's 2015! I haven't seen these kinds of mistakes since the late 1990's. It appears that Kohl's has never hired a systems engineer to map the flow of orders in an efficient and effective manner (the way Amazon has).
I ordered 3 pairs of boots... The first email I received confirmed all 3 pairs would be shipped. My card was charged for the total amount for all 3 pairs. A few days later I received an email stating one of the boots was out of stock, but the other 2 would be shipped (I didn't receive a credit for the cancelled boot though... Amazon waits until the shipment is being prepared before charging your card). A few days after that, I received an additional email stating the 2nd pair of boots was out of stock (no credit was given for the 2nd pair of boots either). I became quite aggravated. I needed the boots very badly; now my boot money was no longer available to me because Kohl's had it tied up (and wouldn't release it).
It's now the day after Christmas with major sales taking place everywhere. The next shock was when Kohl's charged my card again for the 3rd pair of boots which were finally being prepared to ship (but I'd already paid for the boots over a week prior, so now even more boot money was being sucked into the black void). Ugh... I was so frustrated. I called Customer Service several times and was told I simply had to wait (I'd already been waiting very patiently but this was now so far beyond the norm. There had to be another solution).
When I finally had a block of time available, I called Customer Service back and explained I would stay on the phone until I had my money (this rep was phenomenal which brought back positive memories of why I love Kohl's so much). We were on the phone together for 1 hour and 45 minutes during which time we eventually called my bank and had a conference call so the bank could tell the customer service rep what she needed to do so that the bank could release my money; ten minutes after I hung up, my money was back in my account. Again, Kohl's stores are a wonderful place to shop... online is not the same experience though. The only hope is that one day Kohl's upper level executives will invest in a systems engineer to overhaul the flow of goods through their online channels.

For those of you that shop at KOHL'S. Over a month ago I ordered all my Christmas presents from kohls.com. Two hours later I realized I was sending the things I had just purchased to my old college apartment complex in REXBURG, IDAHO. I immediately called customer service who told me they couldn't help me and that I would need to get in contact with the shipper who they didn't know. SERIOUSLY? Okay. So day after day I'm calling FedEx, and UPS, and Kohl's, and the apartment complex and no one, NO ONE, is helping me. Finally I see that my things have been delivered so I call the apartment complex to see if they could come up with a way to get my stuff here before Christmas and they said "Oh we sent all your stuff back because you don't live here anymore."
So here I go again calling Kohl's, and FedEx, and UPS and NO ONE can find my things. At this point it's a few days before Christmas and I am without presents so I ask for a refund and they say they cannot issue it to me yet and that I would receive an email after they investigated. They told me this over a week ago and I still haven't received this magical email so I call kohls.com who tell me they will NOT be refunding my money because my stuff was delivered. So not only do they not believe me but I haven't heard ONE PERSON say "oh that sucks, I'm sorry." I am in disbelief that one of my favorite stores has put me through this much nonsense and have treated me with this much disrespect. I'm not much of a complainer but I'll tell you one thing I am NEVER shopping from Kohl's ever again. So ridiculous.

Reading through these reviews, I can see that a lot of people had the exact same experience I had this Christmas. I ordered about $200 worth of items, many of them were Christmas presents. Let me say I have been a longtime customer of Kohls and usually it is manageable. This time was the last straw. I received two items that were completely wrong. Someone else's Childrens toys (I can only assume it was a present for their daughter that I'm guessing they never received). Spent about 2 hours on the phone with 3 different customer service reps who did absolutely nothing to help me.
At the end of the two hours I finally got someone to agree that I should be refunded, since it was two days from Christmas and I 1) Received someone else's items 2) Still hadnt received $200 worth of items I ordered ON DECEMBER 2ND, almost 3-4 weeks before. Anyways, he said they would schedule a pickup for the wrong items (I told him I could bring them to the store since I work during the day and would never be there to hand them off to Fedex.) Still, I received 10 emails a day saying "failed to pickup" "pickup not succeeded" and that they could only refund my items if they received the wrong items. I returned the wrong items, still no refund on mine.
I emailed a customer service rep, each day a new person would email me back with a different response. Their most common one? "It says it was delivered, check at the neighbors". Well obviously it was delivered, TO THE WRONG PERSON, that's the entire point. At this point, I'm done trying. $200 down the drain. DO NOT ORDER FROM KOHL'S.

I placed an order on 11/30 for 2 products. On the day I was supposed to receive them I checked the status and the product was damaged and marked unable to deliver. I completely understand that and appreciate not receiving a broken product. I then called to see if was going to be possible to receive the item prior to Christmas as the products were gifts, this was on 12/11. The first CSR hung up on me while I was explaining the situation to her, I called back and the next CSR seemed to accommodate the problem and provide a solution. When I received the new order confirmation email, she had intentionally replaced my original item with a different product. Later I found out this happened due to Kohl's being out of stock of the 4 pc wine glass set I originally ordered.
I understand they were out of stock, but would the CSR did not tell me that, she decided that I should receive this other product that I did not order. When I called back a 3rd time, the newest CSR was very pleasant to talk to and explained that they are having problems with bad employees that DO NOT CARE if the customer is taken care of. After she appropriately explained everything that happened and what the other CSR did, I felt as my problem would be handled and would receive the refund for the 1 product that was out of stock.
Then she hung up on me as well. I called for the 4th time and spoke with another CSR and forcing myself to refrain from noticeably being upset explained everything. He handled it sorta, I was supposed to get my refund no later than 7 days. I called today, 17 days after the phone call, and was told it may take up to another 7 days because they have not processed the request yet. I have never received such horrible service in my life and WILL NEVER spend any money Kohls again.

I ordered an e-gift card through Kohls.com on the morning of Christmas Eve, thinking it would be a quick and simple last minute shopping purchase. Kohl's sent an automated email confirming my purchase after I placed my order, but they had not sent the e-gift card yet. After two hours of waiting to receive it by email, I contacted Kohl's customer service. The customer representative explained the e-gift card purchased had been blocked for possible fraud by their verification team. I thought that was strange, but I asked how can I prove that it was as a valid purchase (and billed to my credit card). The customer representative explained someone from their fraud department will contact me shortly by the contact information on my Kohls.com account.
After waiting another hour and a half with no callback, I contacted their customer service and asked if I could just speak directly with someone from their fraud/verification department. This shouldn't be so drawn out or difficult to resolve. This customer representative said that the verification department is closed today for the holidays and said I should have known this was the case because of the holiday schedule. What?? This is totally different from what was communicated from the earlier representative. And plus, their stores are still opened for the day.
I can understand limited work hours on the day before Christmas, but this was a simple e-gift card purchased online. Kohls.com makes no indication of online e-gift cards not being made available for purchase on 12/24, especially when their stores are still open at this time. And as a professional business, their online purchase process for gift cards should have an automated verification process, not wait till someone on their staff is available to push the e-gift card through via manual email. In the meantime, I cannot cancel my purchase order nor receive a refund. So basically I just gave Kohl's my money with nothing to show for it. Beware purchasing e-gift cards from Kohl's. Best to do at a store until they fix the online process and disclose when it is okay to purchase online.

I ordered a Bears sweatshirt for my son this year through their website. The shipping delivery date was for 12/7/15-12/11/15, on the 11th the delivery date was changed, and that was okay. When I still had not received it on 12/16/15 I called kohls.com to see where it was. I was told it is lost, it takes weeks to track, but if I would like I could re-purchase the sweatshirt and I will be refunded for the sweatshirt I did not receive in about a week.
Well I am a single mom supporting two children on a small budget, the only reason I got the sweatshirt was because I did not have enough money to pay for Christmas (so I applied for a Kohl's charge) and I was trying to give my kids the best Christmas ever because last year I was breaking free of a domestically abusive relationship and most of our things were gone or broken right before Christmas in 2014. Now I understand that is not Kohl's fault, but you would think that your reps could show a little more compassion considering I was not the one that messed up the shipping, I even went in and made a payment on my credit card the day before calling.
The first time I called the girl was okay but "in a hurry" - her name was Mary. The second time I called to try and resolve the issue I spoke with Octavia - who refused to put a manager on the phone, argued with me, WOULD NOT PULL UP MY ACCOUNT - then left me on hold for 20 minutes, in which I had to disconnect because my son had his Christmas Program.
BOTTOM LINE - I tried to resolve the issue two times with this company, I was not upset the sweatshirt was lost in the mail, I know that happens. I am upset because I called twice, which was a huge waste of my time. I tried to come up with solutions with the CSR so that both sides could walk away happy. I was very nice the first time I called when I spoke with Mary, I will not lie, Octavia was seriously making me angry so I tried to stay calm but there were points that I lost my temper. All I wanted was a small compensation for my inconvenience or have them ship me a new sweatshirt with no cost to me, but not refund the first sweatshirt. Either way - it was a complete turn off and I will not be doing business with this company again.

I explained to the young lady that the reason I ordered the item online is because I do not have time to go to the store for a mistake that was not mine. Next she stated that she would send me a second set all I would have to do is purchase the item and they would refund it. So I did and it came back wrong again. Now this is the second time.
So I called and spoke with a lady that wrote down my name and number but no one ever called me so I had to email in the complaint. So I then called the corporate office to be told that there is nothing they can do. I never received a call or spoke with anyone in the true office. They transferred me back to the original like that I had spoke to in the first place. No manager, supervisor or anyone from this company cared enough to give me a call. Then I received a email telling me that I would have to purchase the right item again and pay for shipping and no refund. So they sent me the wrong item, which is the same item twice. But what really got me going was when I was told that I have to purchase the right item again instead of them doing what is right and sending me the right item.

Placed an order Dec 6. Received the order Dec 21. Order was missing an item. I called customer service And was told that the only thing they could do was refund my money. I explained to them that the item was for a Christmas gift and that I needed to be sent out immediately. The gentleman said it was all he could do. (Which was nothing.)
I asked to speak with a supervisor, and was given another man by the name of Michael. This man was equally as unhelpful as the first. I informed him of the problem and the fact that their company did not send me one of the items I had ordered. I then told him I would like the item shipped out immediately because this was a Christmas gift. He then proceeded to tell me that the item would be available, but he can only guarantee shipping between December 24 and January 4. I explained to him that Christmas is December 25 and not in the month of January. I then asked to speak with yet another supervisor and he refused. I had them cancel my order and this will be the very last time I ever order from Kohl's.com. BEWARE!!! Takes forever to get your items- if they ever come at all!!! DO NOT SHOP AT KOHLS.COM.

I ordered my husband's sneakers online because they never have them in stock at the Mantua NJ store. Ordered Nov. 30th to be delivered 4-11th of Dec. On 11th no shoes, I contacted Kohl's and they said delivery between 12-4 pm the 12th. Never happened. Tracking was not changed from 12th to the 19th. Package untrackable. I'm still waiting. Very poor business ethics. No support from anyone involved. Will never deal with Kohl's again.

Ordered a sofa online, called in plenty of time to cancel order. Sofa was tossed into my backyard, anybody could have taken it. Had to cancel due to a death in the family. If it had not been for our neighbors it could have been taken or damaged by the rain. UPS never let us know it was in our backyard. It should never have been delivered, I cancelled the order. UPS kept saying they would pick up sofa and return it but never showed up, called them numerous times. We finally returned it ourselves.

In the past 2 months I placed 5 orders online each with multiple items. In Each order some items were delivered timely, some others were returned to Kohl's as "undeliverable/invalid address". I've been using the same address for all purchases but some just don't arrive. For each complaint, Kohl's offers to give you a refund but this happens only "when they receive the returned item". I buy online from other stores too and don't have this problem. For some reason it only happens with Kohl's. I'm very disappointed, terrible experience. No more business with them.

I ordered a few items through Kohls.com this Thanksgiving. I was really thrilled because I ordered a HP All in One printer that was regularly $79.99 and I was getting it for $21.99. About a week later, my items arrive, but no printer. I contact Live Chat through Kohls.com and the representative was very friendly and kind to me. He informs me that he is sorry, but the printer was out of stock and that item on my order had been cancelled. I explain to him my frustration because I wasn't informed of the cancellation before speaking with him. I didn't receive any notification stating my printer was out of stock and that item was cancelled from my order. The Kohls.com representative tells me that once the item is in stock, which will be before Christmas, I can get the same item for the same price.
Fast forward to three days ago, I speak to another Kohls.com representative because when I went to Kohls.com it showed my printer on sale for $29.99, so naturally, I thought I was getting the printer. Nope, turns out the printer is still out of stock. I am frustrated and I ask if I could get a similar printer for the same price. The representative informs me that I can, I just have to pay for the order and then once I give him the order number, he will readjust the price. Well, unfortunately I am running low on funds around this time of year, so I wasn't able to make that purchase. He says that he is running out of time and he needs me to call the customer service toll free phone number and they will help me.
I call and speak to someone. We get a little way through my problem and she tells me she can't give me a similar printer for that discounted price because the printer I ordered is out of stock. When I go about describing to her the above two cases, she hang up on me. I am beyond frustrated at this point. I didn't call back because I was afraid I would really lose my cool, so I send a nice email stating my whole situation. I have gotten 3 emails so far. The first stating that they don't like hearing negative feedback, but they will pass it to Corporate and Management. My issue is still not resolved nor is it even addressed.
Then the next email is telling me they want to give me a 15% discount on my NEXT online purchase. I am sorry, but my originally issues haven't been resolved and after getting hung up on and told two different things, I don't want to shop on the website anymore. Plus, I get 15% coupons in the mail almost every week. I just want my printer at the price I was told I could get it for.
Then I get another email back stating, "While in most cases out of stock merchandise is reflected prior to the checkout process, there are situations when an out of stock item may not be evident until the order picking process. This can be attributed to high order volume, damages, etc. When an item is canceled before your order ships, you are not charged for that item. We do not charge your card until your order ships. As for the prices during Black Friday sale, we cannot honor the same price during that sale as it is our special one day sale." Yet another Kohls employee blaming me for their inventory being funky. I wasn't informed that the printer was out of stock until after I received the rest of my order and why would an inventory based website allow me to order and item if its out of stock?
I am really bothered by the fact that I was hung up on and none of the kohls employees I have talked to seem to address that huge issue. Never again will I shop at Kohls.com! It's been a month and I still have more hassle than resolution. I know I probably came across very rude and direct, but I am beyond frustrated at the way in which this situation turned out. I just want my issues solved and truly I want to feel valued as a customer. I am spending my hard earned money at a business. I want them to respect me as a customer and not hang up on me!

I contacted Kohl's customer service regarding earned Kohl's cash ("KC"). It had been emailed to me and wound up in my spam folder. $45 worth. It expired a few days before I found it. After my first email I received a promising response stating that the correct action would take place leading me to believe they would honor the KC. I received a follow-up email that stated, and this is a direct quote from the email, "Kohl's management has decided to strictly enforce policy regarding KC in order to DRIVE URGENCY, TRAFFIC, and SALES." Yes, they had the nerve to tell me that customer satisfaction does not matter... only urgency, traffic, and sales matter to them. Shop there if you will, but be aware that you are on your own and will not get anywhere with customer service if you have a problem. I am boycotting Kohl's and invite you to join me in sending a message that consumers matter.

I ordered a $99 pair of boots for my husband for Christmas. They were supposed to arrive yesterday yet the package arrived today instead. Opened the box and it was not my order. Not even close. Pair of men's slippers. I called Kohl's immediately in hopes that they could get the correct order shipped to arrive before Christmas. I was told that the only way to get my order would be to re-order and PAY for the item again (less my 20% off coupon that I had used with the original purchase) or I could drive to the nearest Kohl's that has the item in stock and do an exchange. That is a 70-mile round trip! Also, no guarantee by Christmas. They said that they would refund my original purchase cost ONCE the wrong item was shipped back! Are you kidding me!?! What kind of policy is that? So they will hold MY MONEY until I send back their ugly, cheap slippers? Never again, Kohl's.

I ordered a pair of boots and a Christmas ornament with my Kohl's cash. When I received them the ornament was broken and the boots were the wrong color. I called Kohl's.com and they said since I needed them right away, I would have to order them with my Kohl's charge. They said then I would have to bring the items into the store and they would credit my account back. So I brought them to the store and the store would only give me a merchandise credit telling me I would have to come back in once I received my items and then they would credit my account which is not what they told me on the phone.
So I called Kohls.com and after being on the phone for an hour, they finally credited my account. When I finally received my order again, the ornament was broken AGAIN! Now I have to go to the store for the second time to return it. I ordered online so I wouldn't have to go into the store and now I have to go TWICE and still don't have my item. I'm not even going to order the ornament again because at this point it will probably be broken again and it's too late for Christmas. When I sent an email to Kohl's, they were not sympathetic at all. I'm so disgusted with Kohl's!

I placed a order on December 5th. Was told it will arrive between the 15th and 17th. Received half my order then on the 17th I called to inquire about the other half because label was created on December 9th. Was told it was FedEx fault and there is nothing they could do because it was the holidays even though I will not receive my package until after Christmas (Post office will receive my package on the 24th). Will never shop at Kohl's again. Cutting and canceling my charge account.

I ordered an electric blanket for my MIL for Christmas. I live in Illinois and she resides in WA. Makes sense to order from kohls.com. Wrong. She was shipped bed sheets not an electric blanket. She had called as did I. They were not willing to ship the correct item till they receive the sheets back. This is so wrong. Now she will not have her Christmas gift for the holiday. She does not live near a store so returning in store is not an option. This was their mistake. I spent nearly an hour on the phone and now I'm having them send a return box and getting a refund.
I quickly ordered a replacement gift from Amazon in hopes she will get her gift in time. I will not be ordering from Kohl's again and as soon as my refund is received I will be closing the account. Very unhappy customer. I still do not understand why they didn't just ship the correct item when I called, inform them of their mistake. Mind you this is the second time in only 4 months this has happened to me. I should have known better but I have them a second chance. When I ordered my sons backpack for school they shipped me a mattress cover. Same thing, they refused to ship the correct item until they received back the incorrect order. What a mess.

I placed an order for Christmas gifts over the phone. I was asked if these were gift items I was purchasing and did I want them gift wrapped. I said yes to both and explained that I wanted the slippers and PJ's gift wrapped as I was having them shipped straight to my mom. I was given a confirmation # and told I would receive an email with order confirmation. I reviewed the email right away and noticed that the gift wrapping hadn't been added. I immediately called back and was assured by the customer service rep that gift wrapping had been added and that I would receive a modified order confirmation via email.
I reviewed the ''updated" email and it was the same, no gift wrapping added!!! Once again I called back and was told that there was nothing they could do at this point to modify the order as it had been over 30 minutes since the order had been placed. Now my mother's xmas gift is being shipped without gift wrapping. HOW MANY TIMES DOES A PERSON HAVE TO CALL TO GET A STUPID ORDER RIGHT. AND THEIR OH WELL ATTITUDE IS UNACCEPTABLE!!! They did not offer any solutions whatsoever.

This was the worst customer service experience I have ever had. They didn't send me two items I purchased. I contacted customer service and it took them days to get back to me. After going back and forth with them, they agreed to refund me the money. I asked for the items to be shipped instead and they said they couldn't do that, but that I could reorder them (if I could reorder them, why couldn't they ship them to me?). Then they refunded me the wrong amount of money. When I questioned them on that, they said they would refund me some with store credit (which was fine with me) but that they sent it in the mail and it would take 14-30 days! Then, I had received Kohl's cash for purchasing the items (and other items as well) and they took that away from me and deactivated it since they considered this a return (like I can return items they never sent me).
When I questioned them about this, completely explaining the situation accurately in my email, they had the nerve to tell me I went into the store and returned items I never received. So, in conclusion, their customer service reps don't even read the emails. They just find the quickest possible answer and move on to the next person. When that doesn't actually answer someone's question, they just ignore their follow up emails. So now, I am out the two items, still have not received full credit for my so called returns, and am out Kohl's cash, when I specifically bought extra things from them to go over the $50 needed to get Kohl's cash and free shipping. And no one will even bother to actually read my emails to see why I am upset. I will never shop with Kohl's again. Their entire customer service department is worthless.
