Better Business Bureau:
I can verify that I have received the balance of the refund.I would like to provide feedback on two elements of my experience.
1. I have a credit card account with Home **********************. When I am one day late on a payment I am charged a $40 late fee. There is little flexibility in this charge.
There are times when my due date is on a Sunday. If I don't make a (digital) payment by the Thursday before, three days ahead of my due date, I am charged a $40 late fee.
I believe the $40 late fee is excessive. I believe scheduling due dates on Sundays and then charging late fees is predatory.
At a minimum. I would expect some offer or compensation beyond a simple refund.
It appears that I have late penalties but Home Depot does not.
2. I would also refute your claim that "this is not the way we normally do business."
When I go to Home Depot I expect to encounter staff that is unfamiliar with their merchandise.
When I order goods from Home Depot I expect interruptions, delays, and reschedules in delivery.
This has been my regular experience.
I have done business with Home Depot for the 15 years I have owned my home.
I expect better from an **************** but unfortunately, this has not been my experience.
I would be happy to talk to you about my experiences.Sincerely,

I rented a bobcat from Home Depot. I have been trying to rent one for weeks but they have been broken. Well I rented this one because it was supposed to be fixed. Even though I pointed out the hydraulic leak to the rental guy, he said it always leaks a little but it will be fine. I Took it to the job site I needed it at for the next week so I was prepared. Well come 11am the next day my guys where ready for me to start moving stuff. I got in the bobcat drove it back and fourth 3 times for a total of 1.5 hrs. And the bucket stopped working. I called into the Home Depot and they sent out the mechanic. He said that this has been an on going issue and this skid steer is 2 years past its normal lifespan as a rental unit for Home Depot. He tried to fix it there and could not and asked I bring it back. He saw that I had been able to do nothing with the skid steer and called the rental counter and told them. He told them to charge me for 4 hrs. Because that would have been as close to fair as possible. Remind you that I rented this for an entire week with the damage protection. I told the mechanic I was not going to leave my crew and drive a broken skid steer back because he told me it would take a few days before he could get to it. My total bill was going to be just over 1k for 7 days with the bobcat. But because I rented one that was already broken and was a huge inconvenience to me and my team. And costs me tons of time and money. And now I have a half finished job. And they charged me over $500 and said that was the minimum. So I paid for half of a week of rental for a broken unit that only could handle 2 hours of work. Thats criminal! And I am posting all over my social media as well. I went back in after the skid steer being in myBusiness Response

I have an issue with the Home Depot installation of my shingles. I signed a contract with Home Depot and their contractor to supply & install ** shingles with a 35 year warranty and 10 year labor warranty. I have been dealing with Home Depot on this matter since mid-April. The shingled roof failed prematurely due to the fact the Home Depot contractor failed to apply a roofing membrane between the wooden roof and the shingles. This has been verified by an independent contractor and I have many photos as proof. Home Depot has washed their hands stating that they no longer do roofing installations since 2016. They wont even provide their own inspection of my roof. How do you deny a claim without proper inspection? Now the local Home Depot store is silent on this matter claiming it has to be handled by head office and now they will not respond to my phone calls. I consider this terrible customer **********************. I decided to have this installation done by Home Depot as peace of mind but it has turned out to be a disaster. I check with manufacturer and had the roof been installed correctly the adjustment for have been 55% of todays market value Thank youBusiness Response

Dear ***************,
We acknowledge the receipt of your BBB notice dated September 12, 2023, regarding the number referenced above.
On behalf of The Home Depot, I apologize for any inconvenience experienced regarding the transaction with our company.
The Home Depot reached out to the customer provided a denial letter due to the expired labor warranty. The manufacture also denied the claim of product issues. In addition, it was unfounded that damages to the property were due to the roof.
With that being said, The Home Depot considers the matter closed in our office.

I am rejecting this response because: They failed to address the main issue. The shingles were installed directly on the roof without any uderlayment , membrane or tar paper as promised. The roofer who was contracted by Home Depot was negligent of Home depot contract . He was supposed to install the underlayment but neglected to do so causing premature failure. The same Home Depot contractor installed shingles at my neighbour's home at number 5 ****** street and installed underlayment and their roof is OK. They had a roofer inspect their roof after seeing my major roofing issues were very concerned. My question is why didn't Home Depot inspect my roof as requested or even return any of my phone calls. I had three roofing contractors inspect my roof and all agreed the lack of underlayment was the cause of my premature roof failure. I can't understand why Home Depot send someone from their depot and I would gladly show them the issue. I am totally confused and disappointed with their decision. I done my part so why hasn't Home Depot done theirs. I went into the local Home Depot store and they have no comment as it is out of their hands .

I purchase an appliance suite for $2,700 on June 26, 2023. My first delivery was on July 11, 2023 and received 6 other deliveries after that because the appliances were damaged or not installed correctly. I had to return and re-purchase the dishwasher twice and was charged additional money each time. The last delivery occurred on August 19,2023. It was the dishwasher because the previous delivery people damaged it and installed it incorrectly. On this delivery the dishwasher was installed incorrectly again and my cabinet and hardwood floors were damaged. I have been contacting this company for months and its still not resolved. ******************************* emailed me on 9/24/23 about my damage and I emailed her twice since then and no response. I have called the store and they keep telling me that someone will look into and call me back and that has yet to happen.

We purchased a Home Depot Style Well Bed on 9/4/2022. In August 2023 I noticed there was a crack in the bed frame where the leg of the bed attaches to the foot rail of the bed. We hadn't done anything to damage this bed but noticed this crack while making the bed one day. Typically this area of the bed is covered by a large comforter and sheets and since this is a platform bed we don't see this section of the bed very much. I do not know how long it had been cracked but this crack made the bed unstable and unsafe. I remembered that this bed had a warranty and looked it up. It has a year warranty so I called the appropriate Home Depot warranty department on 8/28. The first call I was hung up on (******), the second call was disconnect/dropped after a 20 minute conversation, and the 3rd call I ended up speaking to ****** again and she created a case #********. She called me back to follow up on 8/31/2023 but told me they could only give us $100 because they could not determine that this was a manufacturer's defect. Since we did not do anything to damage the bed and followed the manufacture weight limits for the the bed I believe this was a manufacture's defect. None of the other legs/rails had cracks running through them so it only makes sense that there was a weak spot in this wood when manufactured and it created unnoticeable hairline fracture that grew to a crack over time. I believe this is deceptive to claim to have a year warranty but not honor it when confronted with the situation where your bed was defective within the time frame of the warranty. We're very unhappy that Home Depot is not honoring their warranty that they advertise when purchasing their products.Business Response

Why choose a BBB Accredited Business?BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.
BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.
As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
