      Ordered appliances on 7/10/23 and delivery was scheduled 7/28/23 order number WG37540027. Driver did not call when contractor was not at the house. Rescheduled delivery for 8/1/23 but HD called and rescheduled for 8/2/23, and called again and stated the earlier they could deliver is 8/8/23 with a guarantee delivery. Called the morning of the delivery and a delivery window was provided but no delivery occurred and was told the items were not on the trucks and was rescheduled to 8/14/23 with another guarantee that it would be delivered. When I called on 8/14/23 I was told that the items were not on the truck again and now Im rescheduled for 8/15/23. I mentioned to HD on multiple occasions that i have contractors that will be leaving my house for other jobs by end of day 8/15/23 and every time I get a guarantee with no actual delivery.

      I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction with the service I have received from Home Depot associates over the past few months (June 14- August 11). My interactions have been marked by consistent unprofessional conduct, including dishonesty, disrespect, and a lack of accountability.I have faced situations where associates provided false information, deliberately kept me on hold for extended periods to wear me down, hung up the phone abruptly, and displayed a general disregard for customer concerns. Their refusal to provide their last names or identification numbers further demonstrates their unwillingness to take responsibility for their actions. This lack of transparency and professionalism raises concerns about the quality of training and oversight that Home Depot provides to its employees.Furthermore, I am extremely disappointed with the associates' inability to deliver and install appliances that I purchased from Home Depot. Despite waiting for two months, there has been no progress or resolution in sight. This level of incompetence has resulted in significant inconvenience and financial loss on my part. The installation company has displayed what seems to be an intentional reluctance to complete the installation process and avoid getting the job done. This is not only disappointing but also reflects poorly on Home Depot's commitment to customer satisfaction.It is disheartening to experience such poor service from a company that I believed to be reputable. The conduct of these associates reflects negatively on Home Depot as a whole and has greatly harmed my trust in the brand. I urge them to investigate these matters and address the need for improved training, accountability, and customer ********************** standards among Home Depot associates.I hope that Home Depot will take these concerns seriously and address the issues with the installation company in ***********, ** area. I believe in the brand's reputation for quality service and accountability.

      Home Depot is Deplorable, Deceptive, and Unscrupulous.I purchased an Adjustable Metal Bed Frame at homedepot.com Order number WJ37224878 at the time of purchase.The website clearly states ************ Returns In Store or Online Return this item within 30 days of purchase."I tried to initiate a return online, however, it stated that I needed to call customer **************************** was a hold time of 40 minutes.I spoke to a representative who was disrespectful and sassy, first pretending not to see the order in the system, then stating that I couldn't return it online.I asked her to place her supervisor (***) on the phone several times, she was hesitant to do so when the supervisor got on the phone, the behavior was much of the same,first she stated *** could pick it up but then she came back to the phone saying that I had to return it to the store. I asked her why, when it clearly stated at the time of purchase that it was easy return. She said HomeDepot is unable to list all of the things that you can't ship back.Then why do you have easy return online or in store? She stated again because they're unable to list everything, Ignoring the fact that the item arrived with two missing wheels.It is unfair that the customer has the burden of returning it to the store, especially because Covid is still prevalent.I don't believe that many customers are aware of this undisclosed policy.Home depot is NOT transparent. And just as a customer said before, their customer ********************** is highly unprofessional and deplorable.

      I am rejecting this response because: first of all my name is not **************, therefore, I doubt the apology is sincere.

      Home Depot has an issue with systematic racism and consumer profiling.

      I am still waiting for the refund.

      Thank you to the Better Business Bureau for handling this complaint, if not for this company, I would have never received the service I was ***********.

      I had scheduled a truck rental with Home Depot in the ************* store . The pickup time is August 10, 2023 12:30PM. And the reservation ID is *******. When I arrived at that time, they claimed they couldn't find my reservation. Even after showing them my confirmation text and email, they informed me that the truck I had booked was under repair. They kept examining my reservation text, making me wait an additional half hour. They then suggested I drive another 30 minutes to a different Home Depot location where a truck was supposedly available. But it wasn't just an inconvenience for me. I had arranged for a few others to assist with the move, and I had an appointment with a seller. My entire plan was disrupted. If they couldn't honor my reservation, the least they could have done was notify me in advance, but I received no such communication. This was my first time renting a truck from Home Depot, and it was a terrible experience.

      Dear **************,

      On behalf of The Home Depot, I apologize for any inconvenience our customer may have experienced regarding the transaction with our company.

      The Home Depot has carefully reviewed and investigated this matter and offers the following in response to your concerns. Upon receipt of the complaint, Bloomfield Home Depots Store Manager and Operations Assistant Manager reviewed the customers reservation details. Home Depot determined the truck was engaged in an accident with the customer who rented it before him; unfortunately, ********** submitted a reservation online before Home Depot could remove it from the rental inventory. The Store and Operations Assistant Managers explained all this to the customer via telephone on Monday,8/14/2023. Home Depot advised that we could not rent the truck to the customer without first ensuring it was road ready. Home Depot credited ********* his deposit for the truck rental on 8/10/2023 and provided an additional discount for a future purchase to compensate for the inconvenience.

      With that said, we have addressed the customers concern and consider this matter resolved.

      Hello, I am contacting you to see if there is anyway I could get a refund or store credit for 2 perennial plants ordered last year under order WD97968885. Both plants did not make it throughout the winter, however I was unaware that Home Depot had a 1 year warranty on plants. I asked in a local store, however they stated they couldn't do anything. I understand this might be somewhat outside of your regular scope, but if you are able to do anything I'd appreciate it. I'd also like to mention that I am a pro member and that I spent around $2,500 this summer on home renovation projects, and I have more upcoming. Thank you for your help!

      On July 14th 2023 I went to this store to items. I was supposed to pick up 3 items from the store and the rest to be delivered to my address at ****************************************************************************. Order number is H4616-175597. The store gave me Black Folding Ear **** because the other two items were out of stock. The store promised to call me within a week to pick the two items which they never did. On July 20th 2023, I called the store to check on items and I was told the items were still not in stock. I later called customer ********************** on *********** to check on the items that were to be delivered to my house. I was told that some of the items have been delivered. I had not received a single item from this order. The lady advised me to open a lost package case with *** which I did copy attached. The next day I got a call from *** that items were delivered to a wrong address. On July 21 2023, I called customer ********************** again and informed them of delivery status. Customer ********************** refunded items that were to be delivered. According to customer ********************** items to be picked from the store could not be refund. I reordered the items and every single item has been delivered copy attached. Since July 22, 2023 I have called the store several times and spoken with about 5 different staff members including a supervisor - *****************. On one of the calls I was told somebody has picked up the items. I have not picked up the items. So who picked up the items without my ID? I have not been given the items or refunded the money. On August 3rd 2023, I reordered the items online and were delivered same day- copy attached. Please I would like the store to refund the money. Additionally, the store should arrange to pick two items which *** initially delivered to a wrong address. *** delivered them last month ending. Items are listed below.1. SKU ********** 2.

      I filed a complaint several months ago because my rebates were not coming to me on email, even though I would get emails saying the rebate was approved and I would get to my ******* email. After discussing the matter with a customer ********************** executive at Home Depot, she had the email changed to get the e-rebate certificates to my gmail account. However that is not working either. The contact I am working with at Home Depot manually sent me some rebate certificates to offset, but the situation has never been resolved. When I reached out to her last week, saying I just want my remaining rebates and then I would try and do my rebates by mail instead, she forwarded my issue to a ***** in the social media department who directed me to contact the Home Depot rebate phone desk to switch my profile to get only rebates via US mail, but it was a robot and I could not get a live person to make that change. So at a roadblock. At this point my ask is to get paid the open rebates I have on file 1031014205 $4.40, 7/12 received an email saying ecard coming, 1031692234 $4.40 7/19 email approved, have not gotten anything, and finally tracking number 1036186268 $2.20, submitted on 7/30 but not yet approved. Once these are paid, I can switch to do the mail route instead. I like Home Depot, but I cannot understand why I am having all of these issues with getting my rebates.

      For this specific item, Home Depot has a puzzling policy, or some incompetence, that make it impossible to purchase an item that it says is available both online and in stores. (1) I looked up the item online. (Internet #********* Model #HMPTH Store SKU #**********). (2) Home Depot's OWN ONLINE PAGE said that only a few were available in the ****** store. (3) I called the ****** store, gave the automated phone system the **** and HOME DEPOT'S OWN PHONE SYSTEM said that only a few were available in the ****** store. (4) I connected to a live agent, a woman, who said that only one was available. SHE REFUSED TO SELL ME THE AVAILABLE ITEM. She refused to do anything: ship it to me; ship it to the store for me to pick up; take my money and get me the item. (5) I then spoke to a floor clerk who was pleasant and helpful, and said that there was only one left, but did not seem to be able to get me that one item. -------- Why will Home Depot not hire someone who will sell me the item? Why does Home Depot refuse to take my money and send the item to me or my local store? Does an employee plan to take it free "because it didn't sell"? Is it incompetence? Is it deceit and underhandedness, false record-keeping, lousy web design, poor inter-store transfers, or incompetence? Home Depot has one item available, but will not take my money and ship that available item to my local store to pick up. I wish to file a complaint rather than a review, because a competent manager needs to know about this, and to act on it accordingly and appropriately.

      Better Business Bureau:

      This was a fast and excellent response by the business. Home Depot took good care of it. I would like the business to know that it perhaps should not discontinue good items, especially items made in ***. And although this probably could not be changed, know that when all levels of management see "One item remaining" that has been so-called "clearanced out", whatever that means, that customers will wonder why Home Depot will not sell them that "one item remaining". They probably will think that an employee wants it for free "because it didn't sell". (While actually Home Depot could not, or would not, sell it.) Know that a customer wanted to pay money and purchase the item. But I appreciated the response and will search for other items.

      Sincerely,
