I was able to get a placemat for 59 cents instead of $6.99 which was the regular price. I always find bargains at the closeout shelves, that is how I gather my decorating material for each month. I decorate my table, three buffets and coffee table for almost pennies on the dollar by using the sales.

Kohl's always has coupons and good and holiday sales. Their products are usually top of the line and their return policy is easy and good.

I needed to return some items that I had purchased on Amazon.com. I was surprised to see that there was a free option of returning the merchandise through my participating local Kohl's store. I went through all the steps required at the point of return and received the return receipts for each returned item. I was a happy camper. After about a week, realizing that I still did not get a refund from Amazon, I started "digging in".
First, I started with the tracking numbers that were listed on the Kohl's return receipts. The tracking number was there but the carrier was not mentioned. I tried USPS, UPS, and FedEx, without any luck. Then I called Kohl's Customer Service. They had no clue about this Amazon-Kohl's joint venture and recommended me to call Amazon for further investigation. I did. Amazon's Customer Service could not find any trace of the return and ended up refunding my money as a courtesy. They indicated that Kohl's did not follow all the required processing steps. I am just curious whether any follow up has been conducted and corrective steps and/or training have been implemented.

The aisle were too narrow making it hard to get a cart through. And lines were long. Not enough clerks when I was there. Also, some products were picked over. But customer service was excellent.

I bought a set of earbuds at Kohl's that would play the music but not the words. When I went to return them I was told I could not get my money back and I could not exchange them either. This is so very unfair. They took my money and I got nothing for it but a product that doesn't work!! I am furious! I will never shop there again!

I will never do business with Kohl's again. They delivered a package to my old address, despite the fact that I changed the primary address to my current one, and they will not pick it up and redeliver it. I cannot drive to the address and pick it up because I suffer from a seizure disorder, my husband cannot drive because he has brain cancer, and my mother-in-law who currently lives there is nearly 80 and cannot drive the distance to our house. Absolutely poor customer service and a total lack of empathy; shame on you Kohl's!

I love shopping Kohl's sales. They have great deal, even on name brands. Returns are easy, and you don't even need the receipt if you used Kohl's charge.

I was in the clearance section of Kohl's and found a shirt in the discount rack. I took it to the register and was told that it was not clearance. I went back and found a similar shirt that was discounted to $8.00. I was told by manager Tracy that I would not get a discount for my shirt, even though everyone agreed that I pulled it from the discount rack. I talked to the district manager Shannon and was told the same thing. I called corporate office and was directed to the Presidents office. I was unable to talk to a live human and was unable to resolve my dispute. The discount area was messy and very dangerous, which didn't seem to bother the manager or the District Manager. I will never return to a Kohl's again.

Kohl's charges an unrealistic seemingly illegal amount for any time you pay your account later. I have been charged 100% fee for a late payment on a 24.00 account. The people who plan and run this seem like Thieves.

Five hours on the phone with six separate customer service personnel to request information on how to return pants to a store out of state. No one could answer whether or not I could mail it back at my expense. After the first hour a supervisor, for whom I waited on hold for 25 minutes replied, "To tell you the truth, you can't mail the item to us." Okay. Two more hours where I learn that I can mail it in, then can't. I wait a week. It takes that much time to gain distance from the awful feeling of being treated so dismissively, let alone badgered to provide a post call 'survey' that likely isn't read. A week later, magic! I call again and a rep zealously enters a request to order the same pants online - promising that once I receive these (billing my credit card twice) I can return what I have to the store with a return label. Too good to be true.
Two days later I learn they shipped the pants way across town, not at all able to listen to my repeated attempts to repeat: name, account, phone, address. No, this error of address costs me yet another hour - begging two separate reps to fix the address error: sound of computer clicks indicating that they could. Next day get email they canceled online order because no one could figure out how to fix the error... I got insanely mad. Could not get out of my mind that all of these employees, likely due to poor pay, act out some mad passive aggressive routine on the phone - careless errors, that 'slow' computer that takes a half hour to find your account, fake apology, creating apoplexy. A Comedy Central skit if there ever was one but I would never call again. I don't care about the money. The experience was horror film. Not funny when you eat the cost because the call time is just too time wasting and upsetting.

Called to put my daughter on my account as an authorized user (like they told me to). I was told because her last name is not the same as mine - it could not be done. SERIOUSLY! In this day and age last names of children and their Moms are very frequently different. Called the local store (where daughter shops) and they were not willing to help in any way.

I was given a corporate refund receipt and was told I would receive it in approx. two weeks. I waited over a month and nothing. I called corporate to ask for update. Was difficult getting through. They finally called me and said they had a few questions before they could send out refund. Why didn't they contact me before I called them. They had all my information. I finally received my merchandise credit a couple of weeks after speaking to them. A few years ago, same thing, I was to get a corporate refund. Never got it. I forgot about it and then I couldn't find receipt so they kept my money. I suppose they were hoping I would forget again and not call. Customer service when calling Kohl's corporate is the worse. Hang on to your receipts!!! They are quick to keep your money.

Was ordering on-line 2 capri pants which was suppose to be on sale thru March 7 2018. Went about ordering. Tried to use my 20% code with my credit card which was not applicable. Going thru the check out process I selected to ship to my nearest store to eliminate the shipping cost. After selecting the store near me a pop up says "cannot ship to my store". "Pick another location less than 50 miles away." So I pick another store and another pop up "cannot ship to that store". OK SO IT LOOKS LIKE THEY WANT ME TO PAY FOR SHIPPING. AND DIDN'T APPLY MY MAIL TO COUPON OF 20%. WHAT A SCAM!!! I will never never shop here again. They need to get investigated with their business practices.

If I could give this 0 stars I would. On 2/24 I ordered a television which was on sale for 299.00. I paid off my charge card and added an additional 20.00 for taxes etc. I also used a 25 gift card. I received the order confirmation. This morning I received an email telling me the order was cancelled and provided a phone number to call. It was fraud control and they needed to verify identity. Fine, that was done and then I was told she couldn't release the order because I used a gift card. Transferred me to Kohls.com who offered to give me the gift card and a 50 credit for the Kohl's cash I didn't get.
After being on the phone for more than an hour, I was told they couldn't adjust the price of the TV back to the sale price and could only adjust the price if I paid full price, but we couldn't do that because I only have a 300 credit limit. They wanted me to use another form of payment. If I had another form of payment I would have purchased the TV at Best Buy for less money. So, now I'm out of a TV and the 50 Kohl's cash I would have received, all for something that was never my fault to begin with. Stay away from Kohl's.

Bought a $200 vacuum on Black Friday, never received it. Called, emails, chat, texted, Facebook them for a month. They kept telling me I was getting my refund. Finally they tell me in Feb, which is 3 months later I need to make a police report and then they will think about giving me a return. The cops say it is too late to file a report and my only recourse to get a chargeback from my bank was months ago. I literally gave $200 to Kohl's for nothing, a gift. Beware that they give you the runaround and lie to you till it is too late to get your money back. They lost my business. They are crooks. When I filed a complaint with the BBB, I read lots of complaints about them playing games and lying about refunds so I expect in time they will get caught.

Placed a large order on Cyber Monday for holiday gifts. My order was sent to an old address, however I HAD updated my address in the Kohls.com system. When I called Kohls.com they first told me I needed to contact UPS because it was their fault they should not have left the packages. When UPS would not take responsibility, I called Kohl's again and they informed me it would be up to ME to track down packages at my old address (in another state!). Then when I had an old neighbor track my packages for me, there were only 2 packages (however the order had stated it was sent in three separate boxes).
Because I did not want to pay the packages to be shipped, I had my friend return all items in the boxes received, BUT one of the packages was still missing. I have now made multiple calls to Kohl's to follow up and I am told that corporate will issue me a refund check for the lost box once they 'investigate'. It has now been 6 weeks and I'm still waiting. I have been calling weekly and I'm always told to allow 7 days to process refund. I think it is their big SCAM to ignore and put people off until the next call. Terrible customer service! I will also never purchase anything from Kohl's again!

** Kohl's and their offers!!! Do not sign up with Kohl's. In the beginning they offer you a discount if you sign up, and you'll be sent a credit card via mail. but what they don't tell you is that your credit card is already being charged. The discount that you got at the time of the purchase is what they charge on your unactivated card. I made a bought a dress shirt for about $15 and when I signed up for the membership, I got a $5 discount. I received my Kohl's credit card but I never even called them to activate my card. Few months went by and I receive a letter from Kohl's with a charge of $200!!! It was a stupid $15 shirt! How the in the hell am I being ridiculously charged $200 for a $15 shirt!
It would of at least been nice if I got a simple "oh just FYI, you are gonna be charged for the "discount" we are giving you, so make sure you call to activate your Kohl's credit card, or else we will charge you a crazy amount and screw over your credit score, thank you and come again" ... Well now because of the charge on a stupid credit card I never activated, my credit score shot down like like crazy! Screw you Kohl's. PS. I hope you and your company shuts down.

I ordered an item using Kohl's online. There was a glitch in the order where the web form put in a previous address as a shipping address. Per Kohl's policy I am not entitled to a refund because I ordered through their website and not through their customer service line??? Why have an application and online ordering??? They then suggested I call the delivery service to see if "I" could get it re-routed, because it wasn't their problem any longer.
I bought five items. They broke the order up into 3 shipments. One shipment was sent UPS. The next FedEx. The last United States Postal Service. I reached out to all three entities, none of which could assist as the orders had been either delivered or passed off to a third party delivery service. This ended up being a VERY expensive lessons learned. I too will NEVER use Kohl's website, application, or step into another brick and mortar store EVER!!! Seriously customer service has been tossed out the window this company. Does anyone even care anymore about repeat business?

I have been a long time customer of Kohl's, but recently I realized that this establishment does not understand how to accommodate to their customers. I used my card for some Christmas shopping to reap the discounts and free shipping benefits as a cardholder. I paid off the balance right away and my husband made a duplicate payment, not realizing I had already paid. This was within 24 hours of each transaction. Kohl's took both payments and we called to address the issue and asked that we be credited the duplicate payment. We did not want store credit; it was a larger than normal shopping spree, as it was for Christmas gifts. Supposedly, we were issued a check, but 3 weeks later we never received it. We continued to follow up and another check was supposedly issued.
Another 3 weeks later, no check. We have been patient, but at this point, the amount of money we have been out for over 2 months now is ridiculous. They took our duplicate payment no problem, but for some reason, they cannot seem to reimburse their very regular and loyal customer. Why would I want to continue to spend my hard earned money at an establishment that cannot accommodate to their customers for something so simple as crediting a customer their own money? We asked they just put it back on the card we paid the balance with, but nope, their policy is to issue a check.
How is it that I continue to receive all of my mail, but somehow this supposed check has never been received? Imagine the frustration this has caused and the time spent to try and resolve this issue with no resolution in sight. We have gone 2 months without this very much needed money. Our money! I have even spoken to managers who tell me there is nothing else they can do. I feel helpless at this point. Is there anyone out there who can help us?

I have been a long-time customer of Kohl’s. I have never had any issues, until I needed to return a very expensive blender. When I initially bought the blender, I had some discounts, and also $40 Kohl’s Cash. When I returned the blender they would not credit my account the full cost of the blender. They took back the $40 Kohl’s Cash. I argued with them, that if you give a customer cash to use, why would you then take it back? The store clerk said corporate wants it back. I took it a step further, to the Escalation Department. When the rep called me she would not acknowledge that I had used Kohl’s Cash for the blender, yet I had the receipt right in front of me. She said I had used it on boots. I was getting nowhere so, I hung up on her. Rude... but, oh well.
If they are that desperate for the $40, as much money as they rake in, we’ll take it then. After going through this, and touching base with friends on Facebook, who have had similar experiences with discounts and Kohl’s Cash, I have decided to pay the account off and close it. I can just as easily shop at Walmart or Target and get by much cheaper.

Don't know why they would send out a corporate check for a return instead of store credit but they said they would. Even on the back of the refund slip it states the worst case scenario is store credit. So Kohl's is violating their own published policy by issuing a corporate check. It has been 4 weeks and I still have not received my check that was supposed to be here in 10 days. And I can't get anybody on the phone. Here are the numbers you need to call 3, 4, 5 times a day, 262 703-7000, ask for CEO Kevin Mansell. Also state of Wisconsin Department of Justice Consumer Complaints, 800 422-7128.

I placed an order on January 21. The total order showed free shipping, so I clicked "place my order." When I got a confirmation, Kohl’s had added a shipping charge. I called customer service immediately to ask them to remove the shipping charge. I was on hold for 15 minutes and some sleepy guy said I had to call back in hours because the order had just been placed and he could not remove the shipping charge. So, I called back in 2 hours and was on hold for an hour. When the woman got on the phone she immediately put me on hold while I waited for another person who came on and put me on hold for another representative who told me this was my lucky day because she was going to take care of me.
She said my original order was cancelled and she would place another identical order, but without any shipping. I was so grateful to her. I got a confirmation of the new order but immediately after got a notice that that order had been cancelled by my request - which was untrue. So I called back and waited another hour on hold. When someone finally got on the line, they said the original order had not been cancelled as I was previously told. He said he would remove the original shipping charge but could not send me a confirmation - I'd just have to wait to see if it showed up on Kohl’s charge.
Months ago I had promised myself never to shop again when Kohl’s left out an item just before Christmas and I had to call customer service many times to get it resolved, but once again I placed an order that I regret doing. Kohl’s used to be a joy to shop online, with helpful customer service, but Kohl’s has really gone downhill in quality and in customer service. Never again will I order anything from this horrible place. There are plenty of other stores that provide better service and quality.

I've been a Kohl's customer for a long time, and have a Kohl's charge account as well. Up until this point I've always been happy with shopping with Kohl's. This, however, is the first time I've needed a refund - what a nightmare! I placed an order on November 29th that never shipped, and I've been trying to get a refund ever since. I've contacted customer disservice many times, and I'm always given a canned response about how "the back-end team is working on it", but nothing ever comes of it. I've spoken to "supervisors" as well, and have been given many false promises of a refund that never materialized. So here I am, nearing 2 months of waiting for a refund for an order that never shipped. Kohl's is giving me the runaround, and I'm really done with them. Once I get my refund, if I ever do, I am closing my Kohl's charge account, and they can simply KMA.

Very deceptive pricing practices. So many instances but here are just a few from my last 2 trips to Kohl's. Buy 1 Get 1 1/2 price socks for instance, Nike not included, but the entire bank of Nike socks was riddled with the signage. Shirt I attempted to buy was on a rack that said 50% off (of your typical bloated unrealistic price) so from $40 to $20, get to register and it's $29? I point it out to a sales associate who said she was going to fix it, I then show her three more misleading signs. She gave me the 50% off but people should not have to ask!
Some people, especially older people, will just walk out of the store not realizing. The day before we bought a Flyers hat which was supposed to be 20% off, guess what, we get to register and there is no discount. I posted about this on Facebook and so many people were telling me that they actually take a picture of the sale sign so they can show it once they get to the register, why do we need to do that?!? There are more incidents, but you get the point. Every time I am in that store, I literally utter to my boyfriend "I have the ** store". How many lawsuits is it going to take before Kohl's straightens up!

I purchased a third party gift card to a popular restaurant for my son who is a college student. When I purchased it, the cashier told me it may take a day to activate which was fine. The next day, I went to the restaurant gift card balance website to check to see if it was indeed activated, and it said the card was not valid. I called customer service *(who was very hard to understand) and he checked the card and agreed there was an issue with it but offered no resolution. I called customer service on another occasion and got the same response. I had forgotten about it for a few weeks, but once I remembered I called the store where I purchased it.
She told me she didn't have access to certain information and took my name and number and said she would call back but never did. After not hearing back, I emailed the complaint line at Kohl's and received a reply back that they checked the card, and it was working. Yay! However, when I checked the balance online, it was still saying it wasn't valid. I called the gift card hotline number of the restaurant and a very nice lady checked the card and said that it was not valid. I called the customer service rep back and told her that she was mistaken and the card was not working. It's not too hard to figure out that obviously there was an interface issue between Kohl's and the restaurant/gift card but she gave me the runaround like I was trying to cheat Kohl's out of $25.
She told me that I could go back to the store where I purchased and plead with the manager. I told her that I did not feel it was my place to have to do that. I purchased the card with the intention that my son would be able to use it and Kohl's had not fulfilled their end of the bargain and it was their responsibility to rectify the situation. I asked for a refund on my Kohl's charge which was not an unreasonable request and she FLATLY refused. She informed me she was THE LAST IN LINE to the PRESIDENT of Kohl's so I was out of luck. I am so DONE with Kohl's, they stole $25 of my hard earned money. They clearly knew I paid for something that I did not receive. I paid off my credit card and will NEVER shop there again.

Over a month after returning an online order of a watch to the store (untouched, unused, boxed, with receipt and bank statement proof of payment) and I am still waiting for my VISA to be credited. My experience is much like many others I see posted here. My letter to Kohl's. No response. They don't care. My experiences with Kohls have been one huge problem after another.
Per this discussion, I purchased a watch and a set of socks. I previously outlined my negative experience with my purchase and store pick-up. I decided to return the watch. I visited the store three times, in an attempt to return it. The first time, they were only able to see the socks (and not the watch) based on my order number and advised that they couldn't accept the watch as a return that day. I went to the store a second time, waited in line, attempted to return the watch with the credit card I used to place the order and the receipt and they said it wasn't the credit card used and they couldn't accept the watch back. The third, and final attempt at returning the watch was yesterday. Here was my experience.
I went to the jewelry counter, with my original receipt, my credit card used, my driver's license, the confirmation email from the online order, and the watch (untouched in original box, paperwork, etc). They could not find my order in the system using all identifying information. I went through three store clerks and two managers and spent almost an hour and a half at the jewelry counter waiting for this to be resolved. I was determined to return the watch and not have to return to the store, unnecessarily, and waste countless hours of my time. Finally, one of the managers called the online people who confirmed my purchase, date, price, etc but, told me I had to mail the watch back through the online system. The store manager explained that I picked it up IN THE STORE, but he still didn't seem to understand what to do.
After 15 minutes on the phone with the online guy, he finally agreed to allow me to return the watch to the store and credit my VISA. I have no clue if he will do what he said he was going to do. I have no idea what the credit amount will end up being on my card. I have to wait and see. I wasted an entire afternoon at Kohl's Salem, NH and have no intention of ever returning to Kohl's. I do wish to point out that the personnel with whom I dealt with were very professional, eager to help and polite. This is a systemic problem, not one caused by employees. If I have had two horrible experiences with Kohl's within a two-week period of time, I can only imagine that other customers have problems as well. If there is a problem with my credit card, I will call corporate, I will not bother going to the store.

(I will say this: it was very difficult to discover this email address, and I certainly had no intention of discussing the issue on the phone. My experiences with phone calls to customer service reps have not always been so pleasant.)
Through this email contact, however, I am happy to report that a supervisor contacted me within a day and credited me for my missing package right away! I was so gratified to receive such a prompt reply and ever so grateful to receive a credit for the lost merchandise!!! They did not have to do this; the missing package was certainly not Kohl's fault! As such, the generosity that I received was not even expected!
I know that dealing with customer service reps can often be very difficult, and I can commiserate with many of those individuals who have left reviews on this site. Nevertheless -- or perhaps because of this -- I felt it important to leave a positive review. No business is perfect; we are all going to have difficulties from time to time. It's nice to know, though, that Kohl's does appreciate its customers and will take the time to resolve problems.

I had a package from Kohl's get lost in shipment. It came by UPS and then was suppose to be delivered to our local post office. It never made it to our post office. I talked with our postmaster and UPS and they can't find it. I've called Kohl's customer service numerous times (obviously in another country) and all I get is the runaround. They told me to wait until the 12th. Today is the 15th, and no package. Called customer service and they said they have to file a report before I can get my money refunded - can't give me a date. I won't be ordering online from Kohl's ever again.

Kohls.com corporate refund department is a SCAM. I needed to exchange an item I bought online because it arrived damaged. Their return policy suggest you return to a store, which I did. The store directed me to then go back online to reorder. Here is the scam. When I contact the CS rep for the exchange they said, "No problem." First step was to reorder the item at its full price without the discount credits I initially had. I thought that was strange, but I complied. I placed the CS rep on hold and reorder the item online came back on, gave the CS rep the order number.
He then placed me on hold, came back on and said it's complete, they adjusted it on their end as a credit for the funds will be sent back to my card. They said I should see the credit within 7-10 days, however it was never done. I called back multiple times and was redirected to the corporate refund dept who NEVER answers the phone. I left my number at 9am on virtual hold for a callback. They returned my call 10 HOURS later, which I missed because I was at work, at 6pm. Conveniently right when they close for the day. I've since read multiple reviews of this happening. They are trying to play the number game of how many people will eventually become frustrated and give up!

I've been a Kohl's customer since 2004, sometime in 2016 their system changed the due date of my auto pay therefore making my payment late. I had no knowledge of this transaction until I received a late fee on my bill. I called the credit dept. Spoke to a very, rude male rep who refused to listen to my situation. He said, "I'm not removing the fee, it's up to you to review your bills". I got upset and said, "I'm asking you to please remove the fee", he replied NO... so I said, "Then I'm closing out this account". He closed it out. I'd never been late and was an excellent customer. I called the next day realizing I should not closed account but too late. They refused to reopen same account.
A month later I went in store to purchase some items as we have no good shopping nearby. The clerk asked me if I had an account. I explained the situation to her. She offered to open a new one, which happened but with a measly limit of 300. That was 2016. Last week I wanted to increase my limit, was denied stating I have too many accounts that are close to limit. I've never been late on any of them, they also said I have no real estate account with valid credit limit. What!!?? That is pure discrimination. I own a house with my husband. He pays the mortgage. I'm making a complaint: Discrimination regarding owning real estate, assuming I cannot pay my bills on time which is a lie. Kohl's needs to be lenient towards long standing older consumers.

I bought a pair of Under Armour basketball shoes for my 6 year old son at Christmas. We discovered they were too small. Went to a store to return but did not have the receipt. No hassle return is a bunch of bull. They gave me the sale price of the shoes on a gift card. I was then told by associate that she could order them online and the gift card actually covered the price of the shoes online. I was not given a receipt once again because the kiosk was out of paper. The shoes finally arrived on January 5th and to no avail the wrong address was put on the form by the associate so the package won't return to sender.
Now Kohl's is telling me that I will have to repay for these shoes for a third time and they will send me a gift card back for the ones I've already paid for and they were expedite the shames you out again for free. How crazy is that. No hassle return policy. Do not believe the hype. I would only shop here if I was forced to. This is a very rude company. They have no customer service skills and it is a disrespect to any consumer to think this experience was any kind of hassle free.

Ordered Christmas gifts over $50 - got free shipping. Wanted to exchange one item at the store. I just returned the item. My order dropped to $48 and shipping charges deducted from refund. I explain I want to exchange for same kind of item that costs as much or more. The only way they WON'T deduct free shipping is if you exchange for something the exact same amount (e.g. $55.24). Never mind that my exchange would give Kohl's a more expensive order (i.e. Kohl's would make more money). Couldn't find exchange for exactly $55.24 so they deducted free shipping for every item in the order which cost me over $20 in shipping charges. No other store I know of has such a weird exchange policy. I won't order from Kohl's online again. Costs too much $$ if you need to return or exchange anything.

Someone was able to easily access our account online and order two products for over six hundred dollars. I received the email about the order and called Kohl's within 15 minutes of the email being sent to me. They said they would stop the order from shipping. They did not stop the order. I received one item and was told I had to drive to Kohl's to return it even though I never ordered it. I did what they said to do. The person who fraudulently hacked our account was even able to change the email address to theirs! After getting all of this straightened out with many phone calls (most overseas) and nothing being done until many phone calls were made, I thought things were ok.
My husband and I both tried to use our Kohl's cards around Christmas and they did not work. They wanted me to give them my social security number to verify my identification! After I was the victim!

out there...
Christmas gift. She said "No, I didn't get anything". So, I called Kohl's, sat on hold, went through several people trying to figure out what happened to my Mother's gift card.
It was finally determined that the gift card had been cancelled by Kohl's as a security measure because the order was being sent to Florida. However, they (your company) had been given no permissions from me to cancel the order, nor did I received a notice of the order being cancelled. Then, I had to go through a bunch of red tape to get them to lift the HOLD that they had placed on my account. Then I had to re-order the gift card. My Mother did not get her Christmas gift on time because your store decided to cancel my order without asking my permissions or even notifying me that they had done so!
The First Issue THIS Christmas: I ordered 2 gifts from Kohl's Online for my Daughter before Christmas (Beginning of Dec.). One was a massager, and the other, an expensive pair of boots. I purposely ordered them early because I knew she and my Grandson were planning on leaving town on the 21st to drive to Florida to my Mother's house for Christmas. I didn't want packages sitting outside of their door for 2 weeks because they live in an apartment. On the same day, I also ordered a Desk for my Grandson (my daughter's son at the same address in Delaware) from JC Penney's. NOTE: we had NO ISSUES from my JC Penney online order.
My Grandson received his gift on the 16th. A couple of days went by. I knew they would be leaving soon, so I asked my daughter if she had received her gifts yet. She informed me that she didn't. So, I get on the phone with Kohl's. I sat on hold, went through several people trying to figure out what happened, and we discover that they had CANCELLED my order once again without my permissions and without notifying me! However, once again, I received no such notice of this order cancellation and I had to re-order the card and we had to go through a bunch of red tape to get them to lift the HOLD that they had placed on my account! Once again my family is screwed out of a timely Christmas gift because of Kohl's ridiculous security measures.
The Second Issue THIS Christmas: Once I found out that the order had been cancelled I explained to your CS rep the problem that we were now going to face. Now, if I re-ordered the Massager and the Boots they would arrive at her apartment after she had left for Florida. So, not only would the gifts be sitting in the hall of an apartment complex for 2 weeks while she was in Florida (and more than likely get stolen), but if she were lucky enough for them to still be there whenshe returned home on January 3rd, they would be VERY LATE GIFTS!!! this was not acceptable.
So, the Customer service agent suggested sending my Daughter's gifts to my Mother's house in Florida, where she would be staying. Initially, this was a fabulous idea. However, there was still the issue that they might not make it in time. This was not just a concern for her getting them in time for Christmas, but there was also a possibility of them arriving at my Mother's house AFTER my Daughter's departure from Florida to return home. Her vacation time had her leaving Florida on January 2nd and the free shipping showed that the items might not arrive until the 4th. This was an even greater concern because this would cause serious issues of my Mother having to re-ship them to my daughter. I was extremely terrified of this happening.
The customer service rep and I discussed this most serious concern. The final solution that YOUR customer service rep came up with was that he would re-submit the order, AND put 2 day shipping on it, AND not charge me the additional $ for the 2-day shipping to make up for the mess that Kohl's had caused. Even though, it was 5-6 days before Christmas, the rep explained that 2-day shipping at Christmas time didn't really guarantee that the gifts would get there BY Christmas. However, your CS rep did ASSURE me most adamantly that both items would definitely arrive at my Mother's house in Florida BEFORE my Daughter was due to depart from Florida on the 2nd. Even though I was not happy, I accepted this as the best solution.
Your Customer Service Rep LIED... FLAT OUT LIED!!! Only the massager (Received Dec. 28th) made it before she left Florida. The boots just arrived at my Mother's house yesterday, Jan. 3rd! My Daughter left Florida on January 2nd as I told the rep she would. Now, we are faced with a HUGE problem. Now my daughter's Boots (her Christmas Gift), is at my Mother's House in Florida, but My Daughter is back at her Home in Delaware. My Mother is now faced with the responsibility and the cost of getting them to my Daughter! And, my Daughter STILL does not have her Christmas gift. How late will her gift be? This is not right!! This is most Unprofessional!!
I understand and appreciate your attempt at security to reduce your liability, but your policies go WAY OVER THE LINE. Your site / electronic Robots should be able to see that my Mother's and my Daughter's addresses were added BY ME (they can see the IP that entered the addresses is my IP in Arizona). You should also have it programmed to be able to determine that I have sent things to these addresses previously and you have not had any liability arise from it. SIMPLE programming... How many other customers of yours have been put through this horrific hassle during the already stressful Holidays?
BECAUSE OF THESE ONLINE ISSUES, I have spent hours on the phone, hours of frustration and another 2 hours typing this letter instead of enjoying what should have been a smooth online transaction. These are hours of MY LIFE that your company has STOLEN from me. My Mother's gift was late last year, and my Daughter, as of today's date of January 4, 2018, STILL hasn't received her Christmas gift that was ordered for her at the beginning of December 2017!!! The way I see it is... It would be in your best interest at this point to at least pay for the shipping of the boots from Florida to Delaware, AND to send whichever Postal Company you choose to pick them up so that my Mother does not have to be burdened with what is truly YOUR COMPANY'S RESPONSIBILITY!
However, if it was my company, and my angry, dissatisfied customer, I would also return the full value of the item to her card, or do something else over and above the shipping costs simply to make amends for the 2 Christmas' of Hell her and her family have been through, to make up for the dishonesty and lies from your comapny, all of the hours she has been robbed of, and to completely satisfy her so that she would speak positively about my company; ESPECIALLY, if that particular customer was an internet marketing expert who was capable of pushing a negative review right to the very top of google, FB, Instagram, LinkedIn, Bing, and every other internet marketing venue every time someone typed "my Company Name" into the search engines.
I would never leave any of my customers unsatisfied. But, I would definitely go over and above for that particular customer because there really is a minute comparison between a loss of a couple of hundred dollars and a happy customer vs a potential loss of millions from negative reviews traveling the internet. It would be as they say... a "No Brainer". Please have someone CALL me immediately to settle this serious issue.
Updated on 01/08/2018: Dear Mr. Mansell, Really!!!??? This is how Kohl's deals with this serious issue??? You passed my previous issue off to someone... Do you realize what that girl did?

It arrived damaged (the box was damaged and the largest piece had a puncture through it) and only 1 of the 5 pieces had the promised 'D-rings' needed to hang the pieces on the wall. I chatted with 3 customer service agents who told me they would have UPS contact me about pick up. When I told them I would not be able to re-package the piece due to the box damage, the large size, and the fact that all pieces were originally heavy-duty stapled together (which took over an hour to take apart), they said it wouldn't be an issue and I could coordinate with UPS.
I was never contacted by UPS but ultimately the chat agent gave me an email address for customer service. The email service has been one nightmare after another. They keep telling me they are sending a UPS label that I just need to affix to the box. They are TOTALLY ignoring my complaints that I cannot get the piece back into the box!! Additionally, they claim to respond within 1 business day, but it typically takes them 4-5 to respond with virtually the same message each time. I will never buy from Kohl's again and I have told many friends and family about this terrible experience. Kohl's has lost a lot of business from this one purchase.

The last two orders I placed online were supposed to qualify for a 20% discount. However, what is now happening, once you enter the discount code and receive the reduced pricing, if you use Kohl’s Cash to pay for the order you lose the discount. And, you are charged a shipping charge. The Kohl’s cash to me is an extension of a sales price, it’s not "Free Money", I had to spend money at the regular price to earn it. I order online as the two Kohl’s locations that are in my area have terrible choices of clothing and shoes and frankly the stores are disasters. It seems they receive items that do not sell in other locations. So in essence I am being penalized for Kohl’s not having adequate merchandise in their stores.
I quit shopping JC Penney because of the lack of quality and Bon-Ton as their discounts and coupons were not only frustrating to use, but at times it seemed fraudulent (bait and switch). One of the last stores that I felt I could get quality at a good value was Kohl’s, unfortunately, not anymore. I don't know if it has anything to do with their connection to Amazon now, but I am highly disappointed and very likely will close my account. I, as well as many others have been loyal Kohl’s shoppers, but advertising discounts that are taken away does not leave the shopper feeling good about the experience. It will lead down the same path that Sears, JC Penney, Macy’s, and all of the other stores that are closing.

I was unable to find my receipt, but Kohl’s advertises a hassle free return policy with or without a receipt, and when some items did not fit him, we thought nothing of taking them back. Seeing as how they do not carry any sizes larger than what we already had in store, we just wanted the refund, a merchandise credit would have been fine. AFTER scanning all items and taking them all behind the counter, I am handed a receipt and told that I would be receiving a corporate refund, and that someone would be contacting me within 7-10 business days. Then the employee implied that we had come in and STOLEN everything we had brought back. My son looked devastated. What a way to be treated in your 16th birthday.

The woman on the phone was one is the rudest people I have ever encountered. I told her that I had actually found the receipt, and she acted as if I was lying and had stolen all the items. When I couldn’t locate the receipt, and asked her to pull it up by my rewards information or credit card number, she lied and said that wasn’t possible. So, I put her on hold for about 15 minutes while I looked for it, with no luck. I then called her out on her bs lies, and she then pulled up the receipt. The whole time still treating me like a common thief. She found the receipt, and very rudely told me that I had used $60 Kohl’s cash, so it would be deducted from the refund.
I received the check in the mail yesterday, but they did not give back the Kohl’s cash. I know they ALWAYS return back Kohl’s cash for in store returns, and if you aren’t going to give me my entire refund, give me back my damn Kohl’s cash. Kohl’s is the real thief.

I can almost never actually see any of the lists I created. It tells me that there is an error obtaining the information. So I can't go back to things that I saved. You also cannot create a new list because it can't tunnel to the information on your account. It used to be if you waited until super late when people weren't using the site and traffic was less you were able to get your lists. But this is now constant all the time regardless of site traffic.
You are not able to search items in stores unless you can scan the item in store. Once it is unavailable online, you are not able to view store inventories unless you are in the store and the item tag is available to scan. Since you can't get the SKU number from a saved list because you don't have access to your lists ever, you cannot call around stores to find it.
Almost every order I made for this Christmas season had at least one item cancelled. Even though it was still available online after the incident. In some cases, once the item is cancelled days later, it is still online but for a higher price since the sale I purchased it with is no longer available. It sometimes also creates frantic finding of new items because it is cancelled so late that you don't have time to wait for the often really long amount of time it takes for Kohl's to ship.
You are not able to exchange an online item for a different size of the same item. Usually the price you paid the promotion has ended since their shipping takes so very long. In some cases two weeks. You are not able to purchase the item in the new size for the same amount you paid previously, even though you are just trying to swap for a new size. They are not able to offer you to return the wrong size and purchase the right size for the same amount of money. It is always more expensive. Overall I am so disappointed with Kohl's that I feel I should cancel my Kohl's card and find a new store to frequent. These things do not occur to me at other stores.

I told them I had $10 Kohl's cash on my account so they should take that first before taking my money. They said they don’t do it that way. So not only did they take the shirts back plus half the money from my return. My husband doesn’t have his Christmas present anymore. I will not shop there anymore.

They have my money, their merchandise and don't understand what happened. The store pushes off to the 800#, who pushes it off to the store. Corporate offices refuse to answer a call and the NUMEROUS voicemails I have left over the last 3 days go unanswered.

Kohl’s has officially lost my business. Ordered Christmas presents last week. My shipment was supposed to be here today (Wednesday Dec. 20th) which was great because we have my family’s Christmas on Friday. I went to track my order and it got sent to our old address. (Even though I made sure I clicked billing and shipping same address and it says billing is our current address. Shipping now says our old address which is 5.5 hours away!) Checked where it was and it was getting sent to our old address.
I called UPS. They were able to stop it and get it sent back to the UPS store where we used to live. However, they would not change the shipping to where we live now. They said I would have to call the sender (Kohl’s). I called Kohl’s and they said they would not do anything. I’d just have to go get it. I AGAIN LIVE 5.5 HOURS AWAY! I cannot just pack up and go get this package that I need in TWO days! I again called UPS and they said it was out of their hands. So, I have 5 days to get this package from the store now or I guess it goes to outer space. I’m beyond furious. Kohl’s has lost my business. Thanks for the help! Not!

I placed an order on Black Friday for seven items and never received the items so I call Kohl's customer service. They said that they would refund me the money and replace the order. Mind you I still haven't received the money and it's going on Christmas in a couple days. I tried replacing the order they told me that they're going to do second day shipping and they were going to give me the items for the same price. So I called them up to replace the items in the order and then they tell me now, "You know we can't give you second day shipping. You're going to have to get it in 7 days."
I was upset because I've ordered from Kohl's before so not only have I not received my refund but now they've taken away the second day shipping so now I'm already pissed off. I'm waiting for my money. No money now. They're taking away the shipping. They take away the discounts. Now they're there giving me a hard time about shipping all my stuff. I just gave up. They're liars. They still haven't give me my money. The only refund I received from this at these items was $13.50. I am so frustrated they ruined Christmas because I still haven't received my Christmas gifts to send out to people in Puerto Rico and it seems like they don't care.
I have talking to repeated customer care service representatives and for some reason they don't even know how to do their jobs so I do not recommend buying from Kohl's unless you're buying from the store. I don't recommend buying online because they're liars. They're bunch of thieves and they like taking people's money and not compensating them for the damages that they caused. Thank you and have a good day.

I bought DJI Mavic Pro for $899.99 at kohls.com on Nov 24 2017. Found a better price at Target for $764.99. I called Kohl's on Nov 27 2017 for a price match and they verified the deal at Target.com and promised to credit back $135 back to my card within 48 hours. They gave me a incident case id. They haven't processed it in the given time. So I waited for 4 days and called them back on Dec 2. They asked me to wait more 48 hours. I waited for 5 days and called them back on Dec 7th. Again they told me the same thing that they will credit the amount $135 back to my card in 48 hours. Waited for 4 days more and called again on Dec 11. They said same thing again. Called on Dec 12 heard back same thing to wait. Called on Dec 15 and heard back same thing again.
Called on Dec 18th this time I spoke to supervisor and he agreed that they have committed a mistake by promising for a price adjustment and said that, "Item is not eligible for a price match and cannot help you on this". He simply asked me to return the item for a partial refund (they deducted the Kohl's cash). So I have to lose my money and deal at Target. How can they ask me to bear this loss because for their mistake? The case is still open for 3 weeks without any resolution. As this is purely their mistake, they have to compensate this at any cost.

I am furious with this moronic error, but even more furious with the incredibly horrible customer service! Kohl’s has hands down the worst customer service of any store I’ve ever shopped!! Kohl’s could really learn something from Amazon as they have amazing customer service! I placed a $200 dollar order last Thursday, 12/14/17. Today, the 18th of December I received someone else’s ordered product with MY shipping label on their box! This mean THEIR shipping label was more than likely placed on one or more of my orders!!! I called customer service (an absolute nightmare), which was not located in the States, and was given zero reasonable solutions! The man (Juan) had the audacity to ask me to return this suitcase to Kohl’s as if I work for Kohl’s and for free. HELL NO. I WILL NOT PARTAKE IN, OR BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING KOHL'S F’ UP! I ordered online for a reason!!!
Then, the idiot tells me we will sit and wait to see where my TIME-SENSITIVE orders end up, further wait for the person to phone Kohl’s, to then return my order and then finally Kohl’s will ship my purchased order. WORST “SOLUTION” EVER! No way in hell, relying on this crap idea, would I receive my order as promised by the 24th of December (IN TIME FOR CHRISTMAS). I ask to speak with a supervisor, I then get placed on a 20+ minutes hold, which goes nowhere but to a survey. Omg insane!
I call again and get put through to yet again the foreign underpaid call-center, I ask to be transferred to a call center in the United States of America, I then am transferred to a Spanish speaking rep??? Again I ask to be transferred to a call center in the United States of America, FINALLY some woman named Asia answers and confirms she is located in the states. But, she’s not much more helpful as she too has trouble grasping the issue well, she has terrible customer service skills just like everyone I’ve spoken to previously, and I’m now on a silent hold for over an HOUR! I will never ever ever shop with Kohl’s again, and I will convince many others not to as well. I have a 3000+ following on Facebook alone, and every single family member and friend I know I will convince them too to shop elsewhere as well.

I ordered the same item three times within a week, each time being assured multiple items were in stock. After the order was canceled the first time, I saw that it was still being sold online, so I called the company to make sure. This happened twice, and each time I was promised there were many items available and I would receive it within two days. These were canceled the next day because they were "recently sold out". Of course, the charges for the nonexistent items are showing up in my bank account. Right now, I've been waiting for 31 minutes for a manager to answer my call. Obviously horrible website and store management, and this is my first and last time attempting to order through Kohl's. I will never use the stores because their service is unreliable.

The box had some wear and tear and when I opened it I could tell it wasn't a new watch. The charger cord was missing the outlet connection and when the watch was charged it could not be paired with a phone because it was already paired with someone else's iCloud ID.
I called customer service and after being on hold for over 40 minutes and hung up on once I was told that the company is out of the series 2 and that my only option would be to return the watch for a refund or call around and drive to the nearest store that had one. I called the closest store and they let me know that no store within 100 miles of me had iwatches.

Just spent 42 minutes on 12/15 utterly frustrated with the online lack of customer service skills and lack of communication regarding an order placed for holiday pillows. Order Number: **. Date: December 04, 2017. Total price: $54.54. ORDER DETAILS. Tracking Number: ** I got 3 emails from UPS changing the delivery date. The last date 12/12 never received package. I click on tracking # it says damaged in transit sent back to shipper. I NEVER received any notification from Kohl's that my order was damaged and that it was not being resent but refunded instead as their normal procedure. So now I have to reorder again. They won't offer an additional discount for my inconvenience and had the audacity to want to charge me 50% off expedited 2 day shipping when I had free shipping originally.
Then the supervisor comes to the conversation several minutes later and messes up the items being told that are in stock and are now ALL out of stock so now I can't even get these items! Says one of the pillows is in my local Warwick, RI store but he can't call store or order to pick up today. I lost $10 Kohl's cash in this process as well and because the order was cancelled it's void. Say what? They won't reissue, can't offer a better discount on the pillow I have to go pick up, won't offer a gift card for my trouble.
Basically, UPS caused the initial problem but Kohl's totally lacked the skills to compensate me for no communication so I would have reordered earlier and they might have been in stock, or with wasting time with online reps. I've shopped in their store weekly since Nov and at least twice a month prior as well as have placed many online orders lately therefore expect better treatment for my loyalty. They should have reordered the product immediately not credit account. That is a poor decision for regular procedures in these instances. I don't see me doing online ordering with them in the future thanks to this debacle!

If you order stuff using Kohl's cash, don't ever bother returning because you'll never see the refund for it (regardless of what they say). I order an $80+ electric scooter w/ $66ish Kohl' cash. Paid for shipping charges. Received it extremely beat up... The exterior box was in perfect condition so they shipped me an broken item. The retail box looks teared up and used. So I called to return. Took awhile for them to understand & process a return. They refunded just the charge card charges (Had to call to get shipping since it's their fault). Waited 3 weeks but no "blue Kohl's cash" in mail nor email (like they promise). Called them... They said to wait since it could take up to 1 month - waited 2 more week, called and they told me it's probably still on its way. I pushed back since I waited. They had trouble looking up the amount of Kohl's cash I used, asked me for Kohl's cash codes + pin for each one used. Wasted 45 mins.
They can't even tell me when the blue cash was shipped. They told me several things to get rid of me such as going to the store, waiting longer, maybe call back when I want to buy something and repeat the whole process. I'm an MVC(?) customer too since I bought several thousand dollars worth of stuff from them and got a bunch of $20 Kohl's cash. Anyways, this made me realize why Amazon is kicking all the old school retail's butt. Huge difference! I'll take my money elsewhere until they get better at handling support.

On December 2nd 2017, I purchased a group of items on Kohls.com. I received an order confirmation email and expected delivery date but the whole order was grouped into a total of 3 separate shipments. The first shipment arrived on December 5th at my job (I work for a very secure facility with a building manager who handles packages in a room that is monitored by surveillance cameras). I noticed that one of the items was not included in the shipment that was said to have arrived, so I used Kohls.com online chat service to speak to a CS rep on December 6th that my item didn't arrive in the first shipment. The CS rep told me that the item would arrive in the last shipment - due to arrive on 12/11. When I received the last shipment on 12/11 the item still did not arrive. I called Kohls.com customer service and was told the item would be delivered by EOD 12/12 (I did not receive a "claim" notification at this time from this CS rep).
On 12/12 when I did not receive the item, I called again and spoke to a CS rep named "Frank". When I asked where the item was in transit he told me that the item was delivered on 12/5 (the original date that the item was stated to have been delivered). I told him I spoke to two additional CS reps before him from his call center, and he asked me if I had the claim numbers from those transactions. I explained I was not given a claim number. When I then requested a full refund of the item Frank refused to give it to me as he said once again that the item was delivered and received by someone at my shipping warehouse of my company.
I explained to him that person was our building manager and that this man has already tried steps internally to help me locate my package. We even went as far as to look up the shipping weight of the package together on my online shipping confirmation from UPS. The weight of what was delivered was very light - less than 6 pounds. With this item, we believed the weight would have been more. Frank opened up two claims for me - 1 to review the lost package, and 1 to refund me the *price difference* of the item that I paid for versus what was on the website currently. (I argued with him because the price had gone down by about 10 dollars since I purchased this item on 12/2). Frank explained to me that the two claims would be processed within 24 hours.
I called again on 12/13 when I did not receive confirmation that the claim had been processed and spoke to a CS Rep named Dexter. When I asked about my claim he told me that it was not processed yet and that I should have received an email confirmation that Kohl's was *looking* into my claim. He explained it takes 7-10 business days for the claim to be processed as they need to review my claim internally. When I began to question why Dexter hung up the phone on me. I did not call back.
In addition, I have spoken to a man named John on Twitter about this incident who also stopped responding to me as well. When I felt the proper action wasn't being taken, I alerted my bank about the transaction and they are handling this for me now. I think the bottom line here is that as a multi-million-dollar company this is absolutely not how you treat people. I completely understand it is the holidays and things are busy and people are rushing around and mistakes happen. But you never blame your customer. Not only am I upset I did not receive my item and probably never will and have to fight you tooth and nail to get my money back, I am upset because I was made to feel like a liar throughout the entire process. For others who may have had the same thing happen, so sorry for you -- lesson learned.

I have had bad experience after bad experience trying to fix an issue at Kohl's. It is not worth the time or effort to shop here. I placed an online order that qualified me for Kohl's Cash. The order was sent in multiple shipments, so over the course of 10 days it arrived. One item was damaged so I went to the physical store to try and exchange it. I knew that returning the item would cause me to forfeit my Kohl's Cash and I really did want the decorative pillow for my home. However, the store did not have the same item in stock. I picked out something else and decided to make an exchange. I specifically asked to exchange the item and the customer service rep returned it anyway and started a separate transaction for my purchase. So I lost my $15 account credit. She didn't even apologize.
I went home and filled out the satisfaction survey and requested to be contacted about the issue. No one called. I emailed customer service, detailing the problem and requesting the credit be returned. After 4 days I got an automated response copied and pasted from the FAQ section of the website. I emailed back. No response. Finally I started an online chat and was told they cannot reissue credits. I persisted, because it was due to no fault on my part. I was told I could be given 100 points, equal to $5. I declined. Finally, I was told I could be given a $15 credit on my next online purchase. I would have to start a new chat to get the credit. I picked out a new item, and started the chat. The rep said she was looking into it and I waited 20 minutes and SHE disconnected the chat. Then a new rep came on and said I had to place the order, have it delivered, and then give her the order number so she could credit my account.
So... I had to pay $9 shipping and make a purchase. THEN I could get the $15 credit they deleted from my account due to negligence. That is not worth it to me. I would rather pick the items up in store and avoid the shipping fees. And I wanted to use my account credit on the purchase, not carry it over AGAIN to another purchase. It's Christmas. This Kohl's Cash was part of my tight budget and I can't keep throwing money here and there in an effort to get reimbursed. I feel like every time I shop at Kohl's, whether in store or online, I face some issue with a promotion or shipment or something. It just isn't worth it to me because what should have been a simple shopping trip has turned into a 3 week nightmare that remains unresolved.

I talked with three or four people since I was there today and they are no longer shopping with Kohl's. I would advise everyone to stay away from the store. The out for the money and they don't care about customer service. I have some pop for $100 worth of merchandise and they gave me $45 in Kohl's cash. They owe me 60.

A COMPLETE NIGHTMARE ONLINE SHOPPING! I have enjoyed shopping at Kohl's, but have had a recent nightmare that I felt was poorly handled by Kohl's. Black Friday weekend we bought off the website three different times with multiple items. Everything seemed okay. BUT, when my items were not being delivered, yet we got notification they were delivered I got worried and check it out. ALL of our items have gone to a stranger in another state. After calling Kohl's about this, I was told it was not their problem and they can't help me. What? I never put this address in my account! She also told me to track my packages down and gave me phone numbers for UPS and FedEx to stop any other deliveries. BTW, this is impossible to do. I was almost in tears and freaking out that all my purchasing were going to someone else! Imagine that!
I called Kohl’s back after I tracked down the man and the address listed as the delivery address. He answered and told me he has been receiving my items and actually called Kohl's twice about it and he also was left with no answers on resolving the issue. He told me he was going to write me a letter! I am a savvy internet user however and was able to get his phone number. He is willing to send me my packages of course with me paying for that. So back to my second call with Kohl's. This person was so much more helpful, BUT, there is no real answer as to how in the world this happened. He did tell me somehow my customer information merged with another customer (the delivery address) and so it was their website glitch. I cannot see this address until I saw it on the notification from Kohl's on delivery. I checked this by going to place another order and sure enough my home address is in the shipment address.
Kohl's is not able to help me with all my purchases. I have to work with the stranger to get my items. They are only willing to offer me 200 pts and to pay the shipment fee with proof of the cost and crediting my account. This is so not enough for me and the immense hassle and stress. I also have to do more for this man who is willing to send this to me. Think of the hassles of receiving all these items and shipping to a complete stranger. Plus the calls that went nowhere. Kohl's seriously needs to consider their customer service. Serious disappointment in a store that I shopped at consistently! One of my daughter's favorite stores too. How could I possibly trust buying online again.

I went into the Kohl's Store on Calvine. The store address is 8810 Calvine Rd, Sacramento, CA. I had 90.00 in Kohl’s Cash. I had two items that were 8.49 a piece from previous order that I wanted to exchange without losing my Kohl's Cash. However, the cashier was new and did a return and then advised me that I lost 15.00 Kohl’s Cash. I told her that was not what I wanted done. However, they couldn't fix it so I said that's fine. Here is what I need to purchase. They rung me up for a total of 58.95. Took my Kohl’s Cash which left me with 16.05. Then her register froze. BTW. My coupon didn't take off the purchase either. So she went to another register, rung up the items again and wanted to take my Kohl's Cash again. I advised that the first transaction took my Kohl's Cash. She was confused. Called the manager.
Manager wanted to look at my Kohl's Cash to verify. I gave her the numbers, she could verify it was reduced. I asked for a receipt. They couldn't print one or find the transaction to duplicate it. I was there for over 45 mins and almost missed my dental appointment. Manager didn't even ask for my contact or anything. Probably just wanted me to come back. WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO? I asked if I had an exchange or return then how do we handle that. Another manager stated they could do a non-receipted return. I said, why should we have to when you are the one that can’t produce the receipt. She couldn't answer my question. I am at a loss. I called their corporate office to lodge a complaint. We are on day 4. No response. I have called them numerous times and recording keeps stating unable to take the call. What should a consumer do?

They can only refund my amount. But this is loss for me because now the prices are high on any other stores. They should pay me more money so that I can buy it again from somewhere else. But they said NO. Now because of Kohl's I am in loss. Such a big company is out of stock of some product. They are making us fool. They are selling defective items. I will never ever buy anything from Kohl's and I won't recommend anybody to buy.

I ordered a shirt with a separate pair of pajama pants both in size small. They are a gift for my son for Christmas. I received an extra large and when I informed the customer service they said my only option was to return the shirt on my own by bringing it into a store 45 minutes away. I cannot do that which is why I order presents online. All my receipts show I ordered size small yet they cannot send me a return label or the correct item which was on sale and cost me 14.99. To correct their error they're not willing to pay for a return label or to send the correct item I paid for for $14.99. Their customer service has been zero helpful and I do not recommend them for anyone as I did not get what I paid for and have an extra large shirt to go under the tree for a small son.

Out of 7 registers only two were operating, after 15 minutes of waiting in line your store manager Lyne showed up and was assisting one of the cashiers after which she asked the next couple in line if they had found everything they were looking for. The couple complained about the long wait to check out and the manager had the nerve to reply the was moving fast, at which time I replied that "it only moved fast if you're not standing in it" and at that point the your manager gave me the dirtiest look and walked off.

When you use your Kohl's cash any other promo discounts will be reduced or your Kohl's cash will even be reduced! It's ridiculous the way they think they're fooling people into thinking they're saving anything. I usually don't shop there for this reason. However, my mom loves this store so I was with her on Black Friday and I received Kohl's cash. I made an online purchase when their site advertised 20% off, free shipping orders over $25.00. I had $60 in Kohl's cash. I purchased a pair of shoes on advertised at $29.99 with the 20% off. I ended up using all my Kohl's cash because the "cash" was reduced and shipping cost were added! Yes, I know what the fine print reads. However, their advertising is very misleading. Once again I will not enter a Kohl's store unless I'm taking my dear mother!

An order was placed by me on 11/20/17 for a PlayStation bundle at $269.99 for the Black Friday sale online. The next night my boss was informed about the deal and he placed an order for the same item (30 hours after my order). My order got cancelled due to being out of stock but my boss got his in the mail. Customer service said they send them out in the order they are received and there was nothing they could do for me. When presented with the fact that they had some in stock now, and the order numbers to prove that my order was placed first they still refused to honor the original price and said the price would stay at $389.99 for me.
After being a “MVC” with this company and spending thousands of dollars with them yearly one would think that they could acknowledge their mistake and fix it. Instead they refused to help me. The result is the loss of a good customer and you better believe this story has been shared with all of my friends and family. By not willing to honor their word and give me the discounted price my loss was $120. Their loss is thousands. Hope that was worth it Kohl's.

I immediately called customer service and was told the color I wanted was sold out. I went back online to find out that is was not sold out. So I called back again and was told it was too late to change the color because my order had already shipped. This was all within a 15 minute span. If the first person hadn't lied and said that color was sold out there might not have been a problem. Like I said I will never ever shop online with Kohl's again. Terrible customer service.

When I used the 90 bucks to get a baby bed they took off their FREE SHIPPING over 25 dollars so now I had to pay for shipping. THEN they wouldn't allow me to use any codes for a discount... Why not??
The 90 bucks was used as a credit to your account with you having to pay shipping and losing any discounts you wanted to add. I research things before I participate in them. I watch a VIDEO about Kohl's cash and the lady clearly stated that you would be able to use your Kohl's cash AND any other discounts at checkout time...

I called and find that their system had flagged my order as fraudulent?! So they canceled it. No questions or checking - just straight up canceled it. Of course by then the tv we wanted was all sold out. The CS Rep did says that they would honor the same price on that tv when (if) they get it in again but I'm worried they won't get it in - it may easily have been a Black Friday only special deal.

I placed an order online and after my Kohl’s cash I tried to pay with a Visa gift card. The site tells me they do not accept gift cards online or through chat, only through a live person on the phone. I call customer service and am connected to someone of Indian descent who I can barely understand. She, after asking me for tons of info, tries to run the credit card.
She says it won’t go through and after trying several things, transfers me to a supervisor. He is also of Indian descent and hard to understand. He asks me the same ton of questions and tries to run the card but cannot. I had a $200 card and used it one time that morning to make a $52 purchase and my Kohl’s purchase was $57, so there was definitely enough in the card and it was definitely activated. He says he can’t do anything so try to use it at a store. I hang up and closed the Kohl’s website as I was a bit aggravated at that time after spending over 30 mins on the phone and getting nothing done. I then received 4 emails within 10 mins telling me my account was updated.
So, I went back online to see what was going on and nothing changed except my $40 in Kohl’s cash was gone. I called them back again, and again was connected to another person of Indian descent who asked me that ton of questions again. I explained what happened and he started to ask questions about the gift card. I told him I just wanted to have my Kohl’s cash fixed but he insisted he could help with the gift card. I gave him the info and he tried to run it but failed. He asked me what name I registered it under, I told him it is a gift card, you don’t register it under any name.
He then asked me what my Kohl’s credit card number was so I told him. Not only did he not need that but I was not given my that to him. He then told me to go to the bank and make sure I have the right address on the card. I told him it is a gift card, you don’t buy it at a bank, it was bought at CVS, and you do not put your address on the card. He gave up and added my Kohl’s cash back on.
I ended up placing the order using a credit card. When the order came, in two separate shipments, part of it was wrong. I ordered a plain white cami and received a multi colored one. I didn’t want to call Kohl’s again so I did an online chat and was told they would send me a return label within 48 hrs. I then get an email asking for the order number AGAIN, after I packed the item up already. I wrote to them telling them I already gave them the order number and I looked it up and gave it to them again. Then I get another email saying Can I take it to a store, and I said no. Third email from them says keep the item, they will refund my money. It had now been several days and no refund yet! I am done with Kohl’s. They are a mess!

It took forever to get through Kohl's customer service for them to say that they wouldn't trust what we had already found out from Fed Ex.

Then she said, "Did you look in plus size?" I said, "Well I wear an xlarge in this particular sweater, I'm not sure why I would look in that department." Then she said I really should that the regular women's department doesn't come in my size. She said and I quote her "they have another department for you."
I was absolutely speechless and confused by this rude comment that I did nothing. Then when I reminded her again I wear a size large she whispered, "Oh ok, you don't look plus size. Those are the big big sizes." Who trained this woman to work at the register? There is nothing wrong with being plus size! I happen to not be plus size, but why is she acting like there is something wrong with it and it should be a secret if you were?! Has she not met Ashley Graham? I am disgusted with the way she treated me. The job of a cashier is to ring up clothes and answer questions, not decide what size you wear.

SO... I made an order from Kohl’s on the 11th. It was for items for my job, mostly comfy clothes and some jeans for Jamie. One hour later, I also ordered a pair of sneakers they said they did not have in my size that then showed up on my Facebook timeline... in my size. SO... two orders an hour apart on the 11th. The first order was $225 with coupons. The second order was $43 with coupons (amounts were different with coupons). Now, I moved to this address on June 21st of 2016. I have made 13 orders (at least, on this photo but there is a page two) online from Kohl’s since that time. They have ALL come to my new address which I changed on their system at that time. For some reason, they decided to ship my large order to the 'old address'. What? So let me get this straight, I ordered this on the 11th.
I received the confirmation on that date, the shipping came on the 12th, that is the day I opened both emails. On the thirteenth I called them because I realized they had the wrong address and they claimed it was DELIVERED and I would have to pick it up or lose it. THAT is what they told me. So they screwed up the shipping and somehow I am responsible for that? I have escalated this to MY credit card. They put a tracking on the package to find it. NOW THAT is what I would expect in the LEAST! Dudes... I have doubts. My second order is coming to the right address. It makes no sense that this large order would just 'suddenly' go to the old address. I should mention it is in two packages and one of them will arrive today or tomorrow they said at the wrong address, they split the big order in two. I changed nothing. Further, it is not my fault their system online is not working correctly if it did tell them to ship it to the old address.
FURTHER... how does any of that become MY responsibility? HOW? They should have given me my money back, reordered it, and retrieved their mistake on their time, that is NONE of my business. THAT is THEIR problem, THEY CREATED. I am really... not even going to PURCHASE items from Kohl’s after this. I find it VERY hard to believe that my second order will not be here until the 15th to the 21st but the big one made it there just under three days from the moment of order and is at the wrong address and it's my problem. I feel like they took my money, never shipped it, and just robbed me. That is how I feel. Thank you to the card company for being the RESPONSIBLE party here. This is the LAST problem I have with Kohls.com. I think... I really think... based on the security issues they have, this problem now, and the behavior of the company... they are not trustworthy or reputable.
I am guessing other people must be having issues as well based on the comments on that page. This is one company that deserves to close. #kohls Tell me Kohl's, WHY would you suddenly, after all these orders and all this time later... suddenly supposedly ship something to an old address?

I have been a extremely loyal Kohl's customer for about a year. But with 4 autistic kids, I started doing most of my shopping online. My sister and I decided to buy all of our aunts a Instapot for Christmas. So that was a lot of pots I needed to buy. There was never a quantity limit written anywhere on them. My orders started getting canceled, it took forever on the phone because it seemed they didn't know what they were doing, only to have THAT order cancelled too. I would have given up, but I already bought some, and sent to my family. So to not make a difference, I sucked it up, and redid and redid and redid orders. Suddenly they had blocked my online account, I had to call to have it unblocked. They claimed it seemed like it was a vendor and they had cancelled and blocked my order.
I explained the gift giving for this year. But after all, what's it to them what I do with them? As long as they get their money, they shouldn't care what I will do with them! So they told me I wasn't gonna be able to make online orders anymore, and have to go to the store, buy them there, and ship them across the US to all My family members. So I didn't buy more pots, and told my sisters to all get the rest. Today, I wanted to use my Kohl's cash I earned, and behold, my order was cancelled again. I call in, and me knowing every piece of information of my account wasn't good enough, heck they couldn't even send me a text. They made me drive 25 min to the nearest Kohl's store, so I could show 2 forms of ID... to buy some panties and a set of pots (not Instapots). Seriously??? With 4 autistic kids???

I showed them my ID's (in fact I showed them 7 IDs) only to have to call customer service from there. My child was pulling in all directions, the phone was so quiet I could barely hear the person who didn't speak English well on the other line, it was loud in the store, just to let them know, "I'm here, at Kohl's with my IDs, now what? Explain what the hell is going on." They told me now they had flagged me for Kohl's cash fraud. Seriously? Why the hell do they give you Kohl's cash if you can't use it? After not getting anywhere, I hung up, went to get the items I needed in the store, and as I am ready to use my Kohl's cash... it's gone, none can be found. So they deleted all my Kohl's cash (online) from my wallet. 280 worth.
Luckily, I am a very organized person, and had written down all the codes and pins, and was able to make my purchase and leave.

When it comes to ordering on the phone or online, Kohl's is not a way to go. You're better off going to the store. When you order they cancel it right away because your billing and shipping address are different. Then they want you to provide your whole life to authenticate if you are the person you say you are. When we told them it was going to be a pick up at the store, they wanted us to provide a government-issued ID, a utility bill, etc. They make you sound like you don't exist and that you need to provide anything and everything with your name on it. Do not buy online/mobile even if the deal is too good to be true, they will give you a hard time. They are quick about taking your money and taking days to give it back even though you canceled your order.

Then I again called call lost for 38 minutes but they didn't resolved my issue and said there was no payment scheduled. I was totally shocked & surprised that how they are cheating their customer. I don't Where to report but I want to report this matter before it's too late. So Be careful ladies & gentlemen.

I've been a loyal Kohl's customer for years, but I recently had the wrong item sent to my home. When I called customer service to assist, the person trying to help me struggled to speak English and took a VERY long time to handle what should've been a simple exchange. He promised me 50% off my next order for my inconvenience, but then gave me 3 different codes to use to redeem the offer. He seemed very flustered and confused... I'm not sure if any will work. I never received a confirmation email as promised, but the next day, I got an email from another person asking for more information. I tried calling customer service again and asked for a supervisor. I could overhear the supervisor telling the CS rep to take my information.
Again, this individual had a hard time with English, so I asked if I could provide it to the supervisor. I could hear her refuse. I took down both of their names and called the corporate office and asked to speak to the person in charge of customer service. At first, the operator lied and told me there was nobody there I could speak to. When I pressed, she finally relented that she was not allowed to put me through to a live person - that I had to leave my name and information on someone's voicemail and wait for a return call. This is terrible customer service, in my opinion.

Totally agree with this review. I had to make multiple calls to Kohl's offshore call center in regards to a item from a larger order online that did not arrive. On my second call I spoke to a "supervisor" who claimed to have resolved the issue. However I received an email (with poor English) that said that this person had tracked the order and that it had arrived. It stated that I should go to the Post Office (even though it has been over a month since the original order was placed) and check to see if they have it! Meantime the order information on this item clearly states it was shipped by UPS! Ugh.
I called back to speak to another supervisor. This time I got a women who had a better command of the English language and she apologized for the inaccurate email from the other supervisor. She looked into it and said that UPS had reshipped the item and gave me a tracking #. Hopefully this will be the end of this. It took too much of my time to resolve this issue. The offshore sites are a big turn off to US customers. I have a Kohl's card and have been a customer for over 13 years. Not sure if I want to order online anymore after this experience. I really hope Kohl's upper level corporate management wake up and fix this. Trying to save a few dollars while alienating your core customer base is not a good business plan.

After paying my Kohl's credit card balance fully each month for 13+ years, I missed a payment due to being in the hospital for back surgery. Kohl's did not contact me via phone, e-mail or letter. But they quickly reported the delinquency to the 3 major credit services which caused my FICO score to go from 812 down to 728. Over 40 years of credit I had never been late on any account. I wrote a letter to the CEO, Mr. Kevin Mansell, on two occasions to asked for reconsideration of the late reported delinquency. His staff assistant would not let him see the letters stating that "he was too busy to talk to customers or be involved in such issues."
I did receive a form letter that said the delinquency would stay on my credit reports without any consideration of my past payment history. The company appears not to care about extenuating circumstances and is unwilling to allow their senior management to be aware of customer issues. I will not shop at Kohl's in the future because the decision not to share my letters with the person they were addressed.

In early September my Mother asked me to order a surprise for my youngest son just getting to college. I ordered a bedding set and since I would visit him a week had it sent to myself. Unfortunately, I pushed the back button on the computer to try to get and enter the discount code. When I did this it somehow reset my address to a previous address that I lived at for a short time 5 years ago. I didn't realize that for several hours until I looked at my email and found the error. It was a Sunday night this all went down. I signed back on tried to adjust the order but it wouldn't allow me. I called them and after 40 minutes on customer service line no picked up. I realized they must not work Sunday evenings.
Called back on Monday...they couldn't change it but they were recalling the order. I wait a week and call again. Now they tell me it's been delivered already, they think they will do a pickup of the item ok. I wait a week and call again, new answer, nothing they can do and it's all my fault? I talk to a supervisor they tell me it's my fault 3 times. I ask if the gift can be resent, they tell me NO, didn't say, "We have to charge you again..." just NO. When this company opened 10 years ago in our neighborhood they were known for bend over customer service. Now they want us to bend over! I suggest you skip Kohl's as I have fully regretting my patronage. GO TO MACY’S.

So due to "ERROR" on Kohls.com 14 items that I purchase are being enjoyed by a family in a different state. And customer service is a CROCK!! 1/2nd time calling: We will REFUND you, do a "ticket" to investigate and STOP the items that have not yet left and resend them to your correct address - per supervisor (NOT). 3rd/4th time calling: Oh yes the items were NEVER stopped because the email that they asked me for 4xs (which is in my account) in a row was "not" able to be accessed (incorrect) so they cancelled the "ticket" to STOP the items. Because GOD forbid they could have called the PHONE NUMBER on file, that they asked me to access my account. BUT hey that's me.
Sooo the people at the WRONG address are having a EARLY Christmas and are getting $400.00 worth of items (ON ME). And they have NOW put in a NEW ticket with my email address to contact me, for an investigation that will take 2-3 weeks. For items I need before then. BUT F*** the customer. I called the corporate ### and that was BS too... Just transfers you to the idiots that are at the so called "customer service." So Kohl's has by far been the worst company I have EVER DEALT with.

However recently I ordered a pair of Apple earbuds, since they were not available at any store within 60 miles of me I decided to have them shipped to my apartment in San Diego. To begin, my horrible experience the shipping took longer than they expected... I wish this was the worst of it. I live in the City of San Diego, not a bad area but heavily populated.
At 10:53am I received email saying it was delivered. When I got home at 5pm I looked everywhere but no package. So I called UPS, made a report, called Kohl's, made a report. I was told that they would resend the product. A week goes by and UPS not Kohl's emails me saying the case is closed. I called UPS and they said that Kohl's was not cooperating with them. Called Kohl's and they said UPS tried calling me. Needless to say this nightmare continues. I will no longer be shopping with Kohl's, it stinks that one incident led to this but I was continuously treated like a thief while just trying to get a pair of $30 headphones.

I was in Kohl’s today and was very disappointed as they would not grant my 15% coupon as they said it was only okay to use if I used it with my credit card. This is just not true. I went above the girl at register thinking the manager would know and she told me I could not use it either without credit card and then asked for someone else and they brought a guy Jay over and he wouldn’t listen to me as the other manager kept whispering to him.
My friend witnessed this and could not believe the coupon would not be granted. I am so disgusted they put me through all of that as it clearly says nothing about using a credit card so I left with a very bad shopping experience and left the clothes. I am going to let my friends know coupons are not granted in Milford, Mass. Because that is exactly what happened and I was talked down to and it was extremely unprofessional.

Kohl's had the audacity to report me to the credit bureau and claims they cannot fix the bad credit reporting. The CSR said I could dispute it with the credit bureau. I have the proof that I was given "forgiveness" as the late fees were waived. The CSR said I am responsible for checking Spam and my credit is my problem.

Not sure how or why it sent there when I had updated it and had no problem with my other order. I was told to call UPS & FedEx to set up a retrieval and if that was unsuccessful I would get a refund. I called back a week later and was told that they would open up a case and then I would receive my refund... Checked my online activity and nothing. Called again a week later rehashing the problem as well as the fact that now I was getting a bill for the items I never received... They apologized for the error and said they would issue me a refund and I should see it within 24-48 hours.
2 weeks later and another bill received still nothing... Now extremely frustrated as I ordered in July and it's now the end of September... I call again only to be told the solution was that I would not be receiving a refund for an online order. HOW COULD THIS BE A SOLUTION?? I vented to the agent I was speaking with who explained that this was my error and so they can't refund me... At this point I asked for a supervisor who to my dismay told me the same thing... I just can't fathom that the solution to this situation is for me to not get a refund after not receiving my items... Why am I paying for items that I never received? Is this my donation to Kohl's?

Kohl's used to be a decent store to shop at with a friendly staff and great deals. They have progressively gotten worse in both customer service and in sales. Here are my last two/three experiences: I attempted to return men's underwear because they were the incorrect size; granted with no receipt, but had purchased them on my Kohl's Charge Card. These were unopened. They were originally $28, but buy one, get one (BOGO) half off, so I purchased two pairs, and I wasn't expecting a full reimbursement, I simply wanted to exchange them for the exact same thing but different size. They told me I couldn't exchange them because they were "different" even though they were identical except for the size.
Then, they insisted they couldn't find the transaction on my Kohl's charge, so I couldn't exchange, and then said they could only give me a store credit of $2 to put toward the correct size, because they had been on sale for as low as $2. Which is a lie, because these are the only brand/style of underwear that I've worn for over 5 years, and they are never on sale, other than the BOGO half off. I kept the originals and purchased the correct size based on principle. I couldn't see returning something that I paid ~$21, for $2.
Next time I had Kohl's Cash. I went to purchase a Chaps shirt that was on sale for $35, had $20 in Kohl's Cash, and a 30% off coupon. They rang the shirt out and said it was $23, I then said "and that included the $20 Kohl's Cash?" I was told I couldn't use the coupon with the Kohl's Cash, which was possible before, but is one of the many policies they have changed. I said "then I'll just use the 30% off then", with intent of using the Kohl's Cash on something else to optimize my coupon/Kohl's Cash. They informed me that I couldn't combine the Coupon with the sales price. I eventfully got frustrated and gave up. I needed the shirt for a work event the following day, so, I basically paid $23 for a shirt that was on sale for $35, when I had $20 Kohl's Cash.
My wife called management when I got home and told her the story. They said the item was marked incorrectly and that's why it wasn't ringing up correctly. The item wasn't actually on sale and their signage was wrong. They offered to reimburse me the money if I returned to the store, which I have yet to do, but doubt I will. I just won't be shopping there anymore. Neither will my wife. I've been a Kohl's Most Valued Customer and credit card holder for over almost 15 years and won't spend another dollar in any of their stores. They hike their prices for 24-48 hours then put them on "sale" which is the same price or more expensive as every other retailer. Done with them, and you should be too!

I dont shop at Kohl’s often but my son wanted some specific jeans. They were advertised and a sign next to product saying you could save more on the item if applying for Kohl’s credit. Of course I didnt save anything at all because after I applied they told me that that product doesnt qualify. I made my first payment ok even though website was not user friendly. The second payment I set up ahead of time. I kept waiting for it to be deducted from my account.
So 2 days after the due date I called to check why my payment wasnt showing up. She acted like I just didnt pay it. She did agree to deduct the late charge only if I paid off the complete balance. I did since it was just 60 and I only planned to pay 30 this month. Hopefully this payment that I set up on the phone with the lady actually got set up. Never had so much trouble setting up a damn payment before. To me it was worth not dealing with the confusing website and being treated like it was my fault that the payment that was set up got messed up. Their prices are higher and the customer service is terrible and it seems there is a long list of items that you cant use your so called savings on.

I did that and the manager refused to do anything. Therefore Kohl's LIES in its advertised policy stating that everything purchased there is returnable.
