Kolh's Shipping. I get my statements in SC. Kolh's shipped to PA. They said, there is not anything they can do, until I threatened to CX my card. Now, 30 days before refund. Won't refund unsent items.
This company engages in price skimming, which is an unethical pricing strategy in which a company charges a high initial price and then gradually lowers the price. Kohl's had a Lodge wok priced at approximately $69. On November 25th, I purchased the wok on Kohls.com for in-store pick up for approximately $55. However, by Monday, November 28, the price had been reduced to about $45. Although this company has a 14-day price adjustment policy, they do not uphold this policy.
On 11-28-2022 @ 11.40 am. I was in the line to check out at Store #0769 Fresh Meadows Queens NY 11365. I Was called by cashier at # 4. I reached to the very nice polite respectful woman of color cashier. All of a sudden a mean and nasty supervisor (#13) rushed to the cashier "Don't take any customer, don't take any customer." I was already in front of the cashier and I clearly understand if an emergency arises and the cashier cannot check out. So I ask the Rude supervisor (a woman), "Could you please let me know what is my option since I am already here to check out my items." She totally ignore me with a mean and nasty attitude, leave me standing. All the other cashier was occupied. I am in retail for 20 years and my company would never tolerate this nasty woman. Also she was so mean and nasty to the cashier, she treated the cashier like a criminal. It's discriminations. She should not been tolerated to be a supervisor.
Kohl's as a company is HORRIBLE. I've had a Kohl's card for several years and never miss a payment bc I am on autopay. I got a 30 day late on my credit so I called them and was escalated to a manager. She told me they had recently changed computer systems and It kicked a lot of people off of autopay and that she would have it removed and took away my late fee. Now they refuse to take it off stating I should have paid more attention. REALLY? Then why offer autopay if I have to check every month to make sure Kohl's system works correctly? HORRIBLE COMPANY.
Kohl's is a great store to shop, most of the time. What I find very irritating and a lack of respect for customers, is that they choose to use an independent company for shipping/delivery, OnTrac. OnTrac does NOT deliver on the weekends at all. It is worse for us because we live in a rural area when FedEx and UPS can be the carrier and get our orders to us the next day or within 2 days without paying extra money. Kohl's does not give customers the choice of who, or how our orders will be delivered. Especially this time of year, the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays coming up and people are placing orders that need to have a dependable delivery in case an item does not fit and a new size must be ordered.
The loss of 2 1/2 days is equivalent to NOT getting the wanted or needed item-by the time we get our package, the store will be sold out-it's happened many times. By the time we get the item and realize there's no time to re-order, the other web stores such as Amazon or Target, are sold out. (OnTrac has told me they do not work past a certain time on Fridays.) Now I remembered why it has been a year since I've ordered through Kohl's online.
I have been enjoying this Kohl's for some time, they shifted the cash-out lane to the right hand side to make room for Sephora. But the incompetent front desk didn’t run my card right, charging and holding $139.61 twice, and then saying I only $22 credit available on my paid-off $300 kohl's card. I came into the store with the right amount of money and left with no merchandise because she's incompetent and resolving it with the credit line I’m thinking she might make the same mistake. I assume she’s supposed to confirm the purchases with the customer service line. The transaction experience felt irregular, where are her superiors?
Placed order; it was cancelled w/ no reason. Kohl's didn't care. ESL agent redid order, now less 2 items. Req faster shipping, since their fault - No. Disgusted about cancelled items & customer service.
Tried to suss out why order with 35% off when using Kohl’s card was canceled the next day. Called and transferred 3x only to get to “leave a voicemail.” The “English as a Second Language” associates goofed everything up. First one relayed that I didn’t recognize the order, I told them I placed it. Third one wanted to put order through after I said NO several times. Every transfer had me giving same info, name, last 4 digits of SS#, and birthdate. Asked to talk to a manager, got the voicemail “busy with another customer, please leave message.” Nope, not going to play the game of wait around day in and day out for a call back. Cheap labor doesn’t equate to good service and losing customers will see another store chain close.
I had the worst experience several weeks ago with the Kohl's in Miamisburg OH at Austin Landing. I was there to return items and walked up to the open, cleared window and the associate behind the counter was messing with a pile of clothes on the middle counter and looked at me and said, "You can clearly see I am NOT over there, I am over here!" I was so caught off guard, that it took me about 5 seconds to process what he just said to me, so I leaned over the counter and said, "What did you just say to me?" and he looked surprised and said, "I am over here if you want help."
I looked at him and said, "I don't know who you think you are talking to, but you will not speak to me like I am a 12 yr old! Call your manager up now!" He said, "I didn't mean anything" and I told him, "I didn't give a **" and that his comment was rude and unprofessional and how dare he think he could speak to anyone like that. But the so-called "manager" was no better. Actually, she smirked when I told her what he said. I went off and walked back to the Amazon return area, and as I was walking by that manager I told her that his lack of empathy and response was why that store is going downhill fast. And then asked for her boss' name and # and she said I could look that up! Man, I went off again.
This place has hit the bottom. If you employee people that leave this kind of mark on its customers, you can see why they are going under. I filed a complaint with the Corporate office but no one ever followed up. So with that being said... I will never step foot in that building again or another Kohl's. I will pay more for better service and take my money to Macy's. I have shared my experience on social media and encouraged others to shop elsewhere. If you allow your employees to behave in that manner then they will sink faster and hopefully close those doors.
I have just encountered the worst customer service from the Kohl's customer service call center. They double charged 2 banks accounts paying the entire balance on my account twice. Then when I requested a refund from the account they fraudulently took the 2nd payment from, I was told it would take up to 4 weeks to receive a refund. After speaking with the supervisor, Carlos, he told me there was no supervisor above him to approve an expedited refund, due to Kohl's mistake, and repeatedly told me that he could not help me any further.
If I could have selected ZERO STARS I would have! They don't deserve one. I order 3 pairs of the same shoes for the men in my wedding party, and only received 2 of them. No big deal, but I called to have the missing pair sent to me and was told they no longer have the size I need. So I asked to speak with a supervisor to find a way to get me what I ordered, and was told they would call me in half and hour....I waiting a week and never heard back. At which point I called them back AGAIN.
I was finally able to reach a supervisor. They told me they had the shoes I order available in a different size. So I asked them to go ahead and send me a size up from what I order. They then told me they couldn't do that unless I signed up for a kohl's credit card.....So they messed up my order. Couldn't replace my order and couldn't even send me a different size....Now I have to take time out my busy schedule to go to a store to get a refund on the one they didn't send and return the others, because their customer service line could literally do NOTHING to help me resolve the issue they caused.....What the heck is a custom service line for if not to resolve issues like this....I will never be shopping at Kohl's again, and I will not recommend them to anyone!
I was excited to order this potato ricer at a very good price with my coupons. I even got free shipping. I opened up the box and went to wash it when I noticed rust all around the rim of the bowl where the die sit. I called Kohls and they happily sent me another one out. This time, instead of a nice box with the ricer nicely packaged, I got an envelope that looked like it had been all over the country in the back of a truck. I opened it up and found no packaging around the ricer. The ricer once again had rust around the rim. I called again but this time I had to get a complete refund because they only allow a replacement once.
They sent me another coupon plus a 25% off the item and an incident number reassuring me that all I had to do was call and order it via phone. What a joke, they claimed they can't verify me because they can't send me the code via my number that I have been using with them for years! This is after I gave them every bit of info that they wanted, last 4 of SS, last 6 of card number, my address, phone number and email address. I guess I should have read reviews because a lot of people are getting rusty potato ricers.
I had to return 2 items by UPS because we have no store for over 60 miles away. Kohl's refuses to reimburse me the return cost of $13.96. It's like being punished because they have no store here! How unfair is that!! They no longer have my business.
I received a gift that I wanted to replace for something else. The price tags were on the items returned but since I didn't have the receipt, Kohl's gave me about 40% of the value because there couldn't find the items in their system. Again, the TAGS were on the returned items??!! I got a store credit but will never buy anything from Kohl's after using this BS credit...
I’m seriously never one to complain or leave reviews but this was by far the WORST experience I’ve ever had with a online order. On 4/16/22 I placed a online order for shoes for my 3 year old, estimated delivery was 4/22/22. I received a notification saying the shoes could not be delivered because somehow the address was wrong and was informed I had 72 hour to call to confirm the right address to Lasership in order to receive the shoes. I called Lasership and was told they had no problem re-delivering the shoes to the right address but Kohl’s had to contact them with the right address. So my next step was obviously contacting Kohl’s.
The customer service lady told me they could not change the address on their end and that they were going to have to cancel my order and ship it back to their Warehouse and I had to wait for a refund and then order the shoes again. Another week goes by and I still had no refund. I went decided to purchase different shoes from Dicks Sporting Goods because I was not going to take a chance by ordering again from Kohl’s after this experience. All of a sudden the shoes showed up at my house. I once again contacted Kohl's asking why I now received the shoes without any update since I was told the order was canceled and I was going to be refunded.
The customer service employee said because of all the trouble they were still refunding me and sent the shoes as a gift/ apology for what had happened. It is now 5/3/22 and a refund has never actually been issued. I once again had to call Kohl’s customer service. They claim they see that a refund was in the system but actually never processed and they can’t issue another one in their system so now I have to physically bring in the shoes into the store to receive the refund and no longer get to keep the shoes. I was also told I had to bring in the shipping label into the store to receive the refund.
I explained I did Not have the label on the package anymore because I was Told I was Allowed to keep the shoes. The customer service representative said no problem he would email me one and I still Have yet to receive it. I’m sure you can understand why I’m very frustrated with this company. I saved All of my screenshots conversations about this issue just in case to cover myself. I will Never order online anything from KOHL'S ever again. Going into the store in person tomorrow to hopefully resolve this HORRIBLE experience. I pray I can get my money back. Who knew just trying to order my daughter shoes would turn into a 18day horrible issue like this!
This started in the end of March 2022. I pay off my credit cards off every month except... Let me explain. On around 2/14/22 I made an online purchase to use some Kohl's cash. The amount was very small $14. I totally forgot I made the purchase come March when the invoice amount was due. I mean absolutely forgot. No excuses, nothing! In five years I have never made a late payment, paid in full. I was and still am a great customer but yes, I am human. It was only recently that I also decided to go paperless. Oops, my mistake especially with Kohl's. Come April, my $14. charge was now $84.00 with late charges and oh, my squeaky clean credit report, not so much anymore. All that work and for $14 that I forgot, my credit dropped almost 100pts! I am livid.
No phone calls until April, no emails until April and then they lock me out so I can't go online and find out what happened. I have to call, and speak with someone that said "I apologize" umpteenth times but to no avail. If I had not opted for paperless, I would have received my statement as a reminder and all would be well. No one can help me with the unlocking of my account! I am helpless and at their mercy. I have always enjoyed shopping Kohl's however I have little or no patience for a company that cannot assist me technology wise. Never mind apologizing, do something. Find out what happened and fix it. All I want to do is sign on... it keeps telling me that my credentials are invalid. HELP!!! There's a lot to be fixed here to become more consumer friendly.
I order a Converse Madison Mid Top shoe size 8. When I received the shoes it is size 10. I tried calling Kohl's to do a switch/replacement for the correct size. The person keep telling me to bring to Kohl's. I got so many runaround. I decide to return the shoes and went to The Off Broadway Store. I thought Kohl's a best place to shop. Now, I am thinking twice about shopping online there.
Ordered a hoodie online > went to Online Pick-up > was told by Customer Service it was sent to another store > that was the pinnacle of their problem-solving ability. Corporate Customer Service was equally inept at being useful but, both-in person and by phone, they both excel at frustration enhancement. Canceled the order > Closed my Kohl's account. Suggested they learn how customer satisfaction is good for business > be more Amazon~like.
Bought a product at Kohls.com because it was mentioned I would receive $30 in Kohl’s Cash. However, I didn't see their e-mail and now it's "Expired". The expiration date is also VERY short, good luck with that. Customer service say they cannot do anything to help. Suuuure, it's not like if you had full access to my Kohl’s account and could add $30 in there. Well done Kohl's, you've just lost one more customer.
I have been waiting 10 days for an online order. I was told the order was fulfilled and they are waiting for USPS to pick up the package. Also, that I need to wait another week before they take action.
I have ordered several items mostly clothes. The quality and value exceeded my expectations. The return policy is very convenient in that you can take the order directly back to a local store for a return.
Kohl's stole more than 10.00 from me returning a pair of sneakers I bought online. I am not happy about this and will share wherever I can on social media. I will never return to their store again. I bought the sneakers online for 56.00. After picking them up, I decided to run into the store and use up my 10.00 Kohl's cash buying 2 small items and then paying the difference of 3.72. I had asked the cashier prior to ringing it up, if I return the sneakers, do I have to bring back the coupon items as well, in order to get my full refund. She said yes!!! She did not elaborate on how it works when using the Kohl cash dollars and that I would not get my full amount back.
Well, to my horror, returning the sneakers and the 2 items yesterday, the manager had the nerve to tell me the 10.00 coupon was 'used up'. I said I don't want the trinkets, therefore trying to return the items so I can get my full refund back on the sneakers. They refused to refund me in full. So I took back my trinkets, which I ultimately don't want.
Now I'm out nearly 15.00. They didn't even give me back my full tax amount on the sneakers. I got back 44.00 for the sneakers. Stuck with 2 crap items I didn't need or want, just to use up the 10.00 Kohl Cash. They completely rob people out of their money this way. For every person they do this to, they make money. They robbed me out of my money. This should be told to people prior to using your stupid Kohl's cash dollars, which is not a gift in the end. The lame manager let me leave the store fuming. I don't think this is legal practice for consumers. I will reach out to the Florida consumer division. They stick with this ridiculous excuse as a store policy which you don't know about until too late. On the receipt, it is actually too late once it is rung up.
I had a Kohl's balance in October of 2020 of approx. $35, which I paid in full thru my bank on October 16th. The Due Date was October 18th. Since the 18th was Sunday, they did not get my payment until the 19th (Monday). They credited the payment but charged me a $15 late payment. I then went to Florida the next week for the winter. My mail was being picked up but not being read. I had no bills (or so I thought). Along about mid-January 2021, I got a voice mail from Kohl's about an unpaid balance. I knew I had no balance so I thought it was a scam call and ignored it, but they called again the next week. So I called back and lo and behold, it was Kohl's telling me my account balance of $15 was 3 months overdue. The rep on the line told me why, because I was charged a late fee and didn't pay it. I told her no one notified me until now (?).
The bill had gone to my home address so I never knew I was charged the late fee. So I paid the late fee. But I tried to get the collections/accounting dept to call the credit bureaus since my credit score had tanked from 835 down to 705. They refused to do anything about it. I am just writing this to let everyone know this could happen. I was not notified I owed this money for three months. They waited three months before reaching out. It's really my mistake but their rule of not adjusting the problem is Draconian at best. Fair warning to everyone. Computers rule the world. I closed my Kohl's account and have not been back in their store since.
KOHL'S offer 30% off for all veterans on veteran days was a joke and slap in the face. Everyone had a coupon for 30% off so how is that offering? My husband and I went there and my husband is 100% disable vet. I had a 30% coupon plus a couple more At check out Kohl's wouldn't give husband the 30% because I had one plus more. They used all my coupons but not the vet one. So to me this was a SLAP in face to all VETERANS and also this was their way of getting veterans to come into the store. You couldn't use both 30% off at same time but you can use one with others coupons. Doesn't make sense.
Why bother with shopping Kohl's? Even before spring, polo shirts (cotton/poly, not pique), the shirts in my size (LT. Others buy them to offset any shrinkage) are out of stock. It's ridiculous. Mocknecks (Croft& Barrow) are no longer made in 2020. I have purchased many of these over 20 years. Now they are not available. If you can get their athletic shoes on sale, in your size but maybe not color, that's usually a bargain. Get two pair. Even candles are less available. I used to buy them and other things after Christmas with 30% off. Not much anymore. Covid changed things - or so it seems. But as others note, customer service in store is seriously lacking. And they won't find something for you from another location or warehouse and ship it to the local store. Merchandising is overstocked on racks, not simplified in a designated Clearance area. 30% is only good if you find something you need. It's why I shop some thrift stores now hoping to get lucky.
This corporation took money from my banking account without my permission. Twice a few days before Christmas. I not only have a family of 5, but I have had COVID and other things to worry with than money!!!
Kohl's store, located at Arlington Heights, IL - return not used item on 12/19/2021, purchased online on Dec. 13, 2021: they've offered me for it $247.80 +$15.48= $263.29 merchandise credit card instead of amount $344.25 paid by Kohl's card with the order-receipt I gave to them. Kohl's cash from this purchase $60.00 will valid only from Dec. 25, 2021. Problem with return: I was first in line and, spent 60 minutes all together: customer service & Store Supervisor. The Supervisor spoke with Customer service on Kohl's credit card service to verify amount I've paid (no hold time), -on same day 12/19/21 for another 15min until I finally got promised with no receipt on hand that money will get back to my account with ref#...he provided to me.
I've called to Kohl's Customer service myself, spoke with Customer service and their supervisor, but no one recall any return and credit under my account and was surprised what I was experienced in Kohl's store @ Arlington Heights: not proceed the receipt to my hand as usually, but took the returned item. I've again asked about my return today and any notes under my account. The Supervisor found the information, related my return, read it on his computer and said, he can't understood, why store not able to proceed a receipt. He can give me the proof of our conversation today and Incident ID, but not allowed to send email nor receipt, regarding credit amount of $344.25, which should be posted to my account in 7 business days. Happy Holidays to all! Thank you for reading this info. Be aware, please!
I like the low prices but the discount promo codes is not fair. You can only use the promo codes if you don't have discounted items in your cart. And the employees and supervisors are no help. I will not be shopping with them anymore.
His name was Rob who was the nicest guy that works for Kohl's. He was so nice and helpful. I definitely think he is an asset to the store. Thanks again Rob. You get 100 points. He was just really nice.
I love Kohl's. Get just about anything you want but on the flip side of that I live over an hour from any kohls so I resort to online shopping and I have ordered from them in the past and had no issues. But my most recent order it appears they have contracted with a new company for shipping and here I am over a week after expected delivery and the app stating an attempted delivery to be told to call back 2 days in a row to sit on hold for 45 min so they can tell me they are trying to locate my package. I called kohls and they basically told me it was out of their hands I needed to call the shipping company so I've been getting a runaround for 3 days now. I'm over this and for this reason here I will be canceling my kohls credit card and boycotting kohls from this point forward. I can't even get real answers on what happened.
