      06/2/2022 - We ordered 4 major appliances from Home Depot for our new house build we requested the shipping and installation be done in August.06/22/2022 - We received automated text that they would be delivered the next day. We were not ready to receive that shipment and pushed the date back out.Mid-August - Received a call from the 3rd party warehouse that it needed to be delivered or it would be sent back, and we would lose the sales price we got on the items. We told them they could be shipped but not installed yet. Had the warehouse received the appliances when we requested it could have been pushed out another month.9/1/22 - Appliances were delivered by the 3rd party and placed in the garage while home owner was simultaneously caring for an infant due to the inconvenient timing these needed to be delivered. We were instructed to call back when we were ready for installation.9/15/22 - Appliances were installed by the 3rd party at which time they noticed the microwave was damaged. They said to call the number and they'd have no problem replacing the microwave.Sept-Oct - Numerous attempts with both ******* and Home Depot were made without resolution. ******* believes it's their responsibility to replace/refund for the item. Home Depot appliance line finally said it would be up to the store manager on replacing the item. Store manager offered to refund with 15% restocking fee. That microwave is now $100 more expensive then when we purchased.We ended up also getting our new washer/dryer through Home Depot/******* during this period. We felt after buying 6 major appliances from those two corporations that someone would do the right thing and just replace our microwave which was the least expensive of the appliances purchased this year from them. All we really want is to return and replace the microwave of $0 charge to us, that's all.Thank you!

      I went Home Depot to purchase a door. Home Depot had someone measure my door in June 2022. I purchased the door for installation on July 9, 2022. I thought I would get the door in August. The custom door was delivered to Home Depot in October. The company did not keep me informed on the status of the door. The same sub-contractor who measured the door was scheduled to install the door on November 18th. He informed me that the door was too small for the door space. I told them I don't want the door and that I want a refund. I have called Home Depot for resolution. This has been a terrible experience. I paid $1,507.03 upfront.

      I recently purchased cabinetry from the home Depot online and accidently ordered too much crown molding and toe kick molding worth about $350. When I went into the store to return In the original packaging with everything sealed together they refused to even bother offering a in store credit. I would appreciate getting my money back for the merchandise I don't need use for that is in the original packaging and condition. They stated since I ordered online I couldn't return to the actual store and I don't have the info or access to the email or account I used to purchase. I would like help just getting my funds back as they can also get their merchandise back.

      Hello,I ordered a fridge from The Home Depot on 10/29/22 and they failed to deliver it on two occasions and have now failed to refund my money after multiple phone calls and a visit to the store following original purchase.Please see below timeline of events:10/29/22 Fridge order. Told it would be delivered 11/5/22.11/4/22 Receive an email saying the delivery has been rescheduled to 11/12/22 with no explanation why. I called in and was told the fridge was damaged.11/10/22 two days before new delivery date, I receive an automated message stating the fridge will be delivered tomorrow 11/11/22 between 2pm & 6pm.11/11/22 at approx. ****pm I call to ensure the delivery is going ahead. I was told it was. At ****pm I receive a txt message saying the fridge is two stops away. At ****pm I receive a call from the driver telling me he is 1 hour away. ****pm comes around and no delivery so I check the tracker from the txt I received and it say "rescheduled". I call in and complain and to cancel my order. I was told the order is cancelled but would need to go into the store for my refund.11/12/22 in the morning I go to the store for my refund but am told they cannot refund me until the fridge is scanned back into the warehouse.11/14/22 I call to complain about not getting my refund and am transferred to an escalations team. I am told that they have confirmed the fridge is now scanned back into the warehouse, and that they will have their IT team push through the refund so I do not have to go to the store again. I am told this takes 24 to 48hrs.11/17/22 I still do not have a refund!While I someone what understand the need for the fridge to be scanned back into the warehouse, I do not see why I should have to wait for my refund! What if the truck was in an accident, or the fridge was stolen. Am I supposed to wait indefinitely for my refund?! No!Please issue my refund ASAP!

      On 11/13 I purchased a ZEP mold and mildew cleaner(gallon). I placed it in my trunk. There is no security seal on it and it leaked and damaged some items. On 11/14 I returned what was left in the container and filed a claim with ******, the store manager. In the report I was mandated to give my name, full address, phone number and license plate info. I refused the licensed plate information as that had nothing to do with my issue. ***** from ******** called to go over the claim and apparently had none of this information. Where is my personal information?***** also requested the make, model and year of my car, oh my goodness. He also stated he had to get the title of my car and confirm it is in fact mine. Oh my goodness again.

      I ordered a side splash for my new vanity and it came in the wrong size. It was their error not mine. The store told me I had to call the online support to return it. The online support refused to return it because they said it's a low price item $18 and it's not worth the cost for them to send out a shipping label so therefore I'm suppose to eat the cost or drive to the Home Depo store to return it (which is 50 miles round trip and a 40 minutes drive one way) and the store will not accept returns from the online store. I asked if they would credit my HD Card and they said No. The lady (******) on the phone was rude to me. I ask to speak to her supervisor that she claimed she was getting her info from and I was disconnected. In addition this was not the only problem I had with the store itself. I bought a vanity that was damaged, I had to return it for another, got home the top was broke had to exchange again all at my expense. Never once did they offer any compensation and I ask for compensation since I live so far away and was told NO they don't do that but the online people says they do.

Lifetime warranty 1 "The most basic and essential ingredient in a Designer Deck(R) is the wood we use...US *********** *** (the Home Depot approved contractor on this warranty) will replace any of its products within the warranty period due to failure caused by rot wood decay, or termite damage". I visited the same Home Depot store 11/3/22; no one could assist as they didn't keep historical records. On 11/4/22 *************************, Branch Installation Manager of Northern ******** contacted me for my contract documents. (I have it all). I scanned and sent to him later that same day. On 11/8/22 he stated "We typically deny warranty claims that exceed *********************************************************************************************************************************************************** your concerns. I have authorized a $1,500 Home Depot gift card to be issued to you to assist in getting your deck repaired. I have attached the required paperwork to settle your warranty claim. Please review and sign at your convivence." This obviously conflicts with warranty. Due to the type of wood rot, under decking and the deck is only inches off the ground, it would require removal of the decking just to determine extent of damage. He knew it would cost more then $1,500, thus trying to pay me off without even visiting the house to review. This damage only appeared in the last month, I immediately visit Home Depot week I discovered, the deck is sagging on parts and is unsafe. I expect them to send a deck installer to the house, review and come up with a plan to address, and rebuild to code as warranty claims free of charge. I have more files, attached: warranty, credit paid, layout, acceptance, agreement, photo.

      I have accepted Home Depot's offer of settlement, yet it may take a couple of weeks for payment to be provided. I request BBB leave this open for another couple of weeks to allow complete payment rendered.

      Thank you,

      I purchased an over the range replacement microwave oven for one of the same brand that was 10 years old. They were told to install it to vent outside and they could see that the old one was already vented to the outside. I wasnt present at install and did not catch them purposefully install the new microwave incorrectly and they took the old microwave. They refuse to return my microwave and refuse to take the new microwave back. They refuse to reinstall the new one correctly saying that it can be done but they refuse to do it. The microwave is basically unusable because if I use it to vent the range it is over, it throws the smoke back into the house instead outside

      RE: Order# W899471482 Directed at whomever can assist, because it appears your regular points of contacts (chat/phone/store/text) are unable to. Please read this in its entirety to understand my frustration.I placed the above referenced order online and selected scheduled delivery. I did so due to the soonest delivery date not knowing this item (72" Toolbox) will be shipped directly from a store. I realized this once I received an email receipt with a stores info. I immediately contacted the store (*********** Location) and requested they send me a toolbox that has not been removed from the shipping pallet ( As this is the reason I don't want it from a store. They remove the toolboxes from the original ********** therefore making it susceptible to damage). They assured me that I will receive one in it's original packaging (pallet and boxed). Well, delivery day came and I noticed the delivery persons (via video on my security cameras) rolling the toolbox over the curb (where the road meets my driveway, all the way up my driveway to my garage door where I requested them leave it, as I was not home.Needless to say, the unit did sustain damage. To the wheels and the box itself. This was a gift for my son for his art setup, meaning it will be placed inside my home. I paid for a new product, so I expect it to be in new condition. Ok, so here is the when the real problem started. I immediately contacted customer support chat via the channel I purchased the unit (ONLINE) and they allegedly setup a pickup for return for Nov. 16. Well I stayed home from work to ensure the item was picked up. Guess what...NO ONE SHOWED. NO ONE CALLED. I missed work yesterday, meaning I missed out on a day's salary...FOR NOTHING. At the end of the day I did the text option for customer support. The rep apologized and stated I will be refunded once the box is received by Home Depot. I told them it was scheduled for pickup and no one showed or called. He then proceeded to tell me I need to contact the store directly. My response was for them to do it, since I have no faith in getting any assistance from store employees as no one ever knows what's going on. He agreed and contacted the store, and well, the expected happened, he got nowhere with them. I have attached photos of damaged product, including snapshot of drivers rolling it up the driveway, pic of damaged ********** ************ of my most recent contact. My ask of you is please make something happen here. I need my ********** have no space to store a damaged 72" toolbox and will be rolling it out front for the metal recycle guy to pickup by end of day if I cannot get help. Also, I cannot miss another days salary waiting for no one to show. I do not take joy in going to the top to get a fast resolution, as I understand the chain of command, but when I have nowhere else to turn to and no more time to waste, it really leaves me no choice.
