Dear BBB,I am writing to file a formal complaint against Home Depot Corporation for an incident involving an appliance order placed on July 10th 2023. During a Home depot July 4th appliance sales event, I ordered 18 appliances for my Construction Project (#H1214-256177, #H1214-256179, and #H1214-256181) with total of $6123.00. it was explicitly advertised that the appliances were available at a discounted price, and I looked forward to receiving them at the agreed-upon price on the scheduled delivery date. Despite advertised discounts, Home Depot canceled my order a few days before the promised delivery date without any communication or notice. This has caused inconvenience, extra costs, because all the appliances companys sales event has been ended. I kindly request your intervention to ensure the honored price and prompt reinstatement of my order for delivery on the agreed-upon date.Thank you for your attention to this matter.Sincerely,*******

I ordered a washing machine on 6-21-23 and scheduled delivery for 7-1-23. On 7-1 I received a phone call my washing machine didnt make it on the delivery truck. I rescheduled delivery for Friday 7-7 (I was off that day- normally can only accept deliveries on Saturday). To make a long story short. Home Depot did not show up on 7-7. I had to reach out and the delivery has since been scheduled ****, **** and ****. Home Depot did not show to deliver on any of these days despite, confirming the delivery was going to happen on these dates. On 6-29-23 after they didnt deliver for the 5th time and I spent my personal time waiting for several deliveries that didnt happen- I called and cancelled the order. I asked it to be credited to my credit card (which I already paid) immediately. This would secure my funds to purchase a washer from another vendor. I was told they would credit the hoses and the charge to all haul off my old washer- but they would not refund the washer until it was restocked with Home Depot. I questioned- how this is my problem and how they were holding my refund for an appliance I never received to no fault of my own and in every way their fault? I was basically ignored and received an email stating the hoses and haul away were cancelled but the washer was not. This is completely unacceptable and shocking to me. I always understood Home Depot to be a highly reputable company- until this experience.

I ordered a weed eater for my husband on July 28, 2023. I opened up a Home Depot credit card at the same time. They did not have what I wanted in the store so I placed my order online that evening. Order number: Order Number: WG39033281 Order Date: July 28, 2023 My home depot credit card was incorrectly charged on 7/28 on above order. I was charged $112.34. my credit card should have been charged $59.34. I tried to resolve this with home depot credit card agent and they said they had never seen a $50 off $300 coupon/promo code. I asked several times. Then they said I should get a "new customer $100 billing **********************" applied to my account. Please read the attached chat records between me and a rep for Home Depot. The total was$412.34 with tax. I used a coupon code, I could use in-store or online to save $50 off $300. I applied that and total came to $362.34. I then applied one gift card ($300) as shown on attachment to this complaint. Gift card ending ****. My Home Depot credit card ending in **** was supposed to be charged $59.34. This evening when I checked my account I was in fact charged $112.34.I should only have been charged what the system showed me and I accepted when placing my order. Not $53.00 MORE dollars above that. Again my Home Depot credit card should have been charged $59.34. But I was incorrectly charged $112.34. I tried to resolve this with customer ********************** and they were not clearly able to tell me what or how to fix this. Just kept saying I would get "billing credit" maybe in one to two months.

I purchased a dishwasher from Home Depot with installation and *********. Upon delivery of the dishwasher, the plumber stated that he was not a certified plumber and could not install the dishwasher even though I paid for it. Home Depot never advised that they do not hire non certified plumbers or that there could possibly be an issue with installing the dishwasher. Home Depot cannot create a contract and offer a service that it cannot provide. In addition to this issue, I was advised to hire my own certified plumber to install the dishwasher. In my Home Depot contract, I only have 48 hours to inspect and make sure the dishwasher works, if I hire my own certified plumber, the scheduling would exceed the 48 hour window, thus, breaching the contract.

On July 16, 2023, I purchased a GE Gas stove [Order # H****-358377] and the delivery date was scheduled for 7/29/2023, on Saturday from the Home Depot located at ********************************************************************* [Store #****]. I purchased it in person with a check, so it is fully paid for including the installation and haul away of the old one. On 7/28/2029 I received a telephone call on my cell, informing me that the delivery date will have to be rescheduled due to no service in my area. The total cost was $1252.02 for the price of the gas stove, installation fees, haul away fees and the installation kit.Why would a company allow me to schedule my delivery date during the purchase and then call the day before delivery to discuss a new delivery date. The representative stated that the earliest that it can be delivered would be 8/5/2023 a week later. It is stressful when I have already waited two weeks. Is there any way that my order can be delivered sooner and installed as requested and purchased?I dont want a refund. I want my gas stove delivered and installed as requested. It shouldnt depend on which zip code I reside in, it should be based on the consumer's needs.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. The gas range was delivered on 8/5/2023, but I was not given a window. They just showed up on Saturday, at about 7:00am to haul-away the old appliance, deliver and install the new one. I had to ask for the manual since that was not given to me. It took three weeks from order date to deliver the appliance.

On behalf of the Home Depot, I apologize for any inconvenience our valued customer may have experienced regarding their kitchen renovation project.
A service installation date for the remaining materials needed to complete was scheduled on 08/26/2023.
We partnered with our property damage insurance company, Sedgwick, and sent pictures of the damage paint due to the countertop installation. Sedgwick is handling the property damage claim. Customers request of removing the electrical outlets will be denied as customer was told by the ********************** consultant, Home Depot does not offer and perform electrical work. Customer initialed and signed off acknowledgment. Upon completion of the installation,customer will be offered $1,000.00.

** Case # ********Customer Answer
Date: 08/28/2023
Complaint: 20394044
I am rejecting this response because of the below write-up!*************, Thank you for the opportunity to respond!
This is what I had originally requested: At a minimum, we are asking that ** discount this kitchen project by 30% for all the problems, inconvenience, additional money and time spent on this project.
So,to receive an offer of $1000 is a slap in the face after we are spending $45,000 on this project. In addition, ******************** is not correct, as the work is not completed, and I have attached pictures. Yes, someone did come to my home on Saturday, 26 August 2023 and replaced some doors. As my partner would share, he felt like the ** rep did not want to be at our home; therefore, the work was not taken seriously. There are 2 cabinets still incomplete (bottom fixtures not done) and where the oven wall unit is, there is still damage. When I went to check on the ** rep/contractor, he had departed, and I just thought he had gone to get more supplies.
I do not recall the design consultant initially informing me that the outlet covers would not be covered. I remember being told to buy a sink and to have the oven top removed. ** did not tell us to remove the outlet covers or else we would have done that also. ** removed the outlets, so they should be responsible for putting them back on or paying to get it corrected. This cost was $500 for an electrician (******* Electric) that we paid. The receipt was sent to **s insurance company. If it is about customer ********************** and pleasing the customer, ********************/** should/can approve this and reimburse us for this expense. To say it was in the contract is a c*** answeryes, I signed the contract, after the gentleman had been at our house for hours; then he had an I-pad and he would tell me when to sign, while highlighting items.
We, the homeowners, had to give up our time for ** reps and contractors to come to our home, multiple times. How much do we get paid for that because our time is more than $1000. And wait for it, ** must come to our home again.
Due to the doors being replaced and more holes drilled, we now must empty our cabinets, wash the flatware and wipe out the cabinets and then restock them. How much do we get paid for that?We must hire someone to retexture/paint. To do that, we must be home to get estimates. Then we must be at home again for the work to be completed and as one painter (***********************) shared it will take more than one visit. So, ***** it **s insurance company will pay for this with a receipt/invoice,this is still our time again. How much do we get paid for that?
We were told weeks ago that we were also receiving a $250 ** gift cardit's even noted on the punch list. We have not seen this. What happened to that?
Please note after the complaint was filed, the voicemail left by ******************** and the phone call from the manager in ******* were appreciated.
In my little opinion, I thought I was being quite fair asking for 30% reimbursement.The project cost $45,000; 30% is $13,500. To be offered $1000, which is not even close to what we requested for all the mistakes, the cleaning we must do, the number of times we have to be at the house when we should be at work is a lot more than $1000.
The Air Force Core Values: Integrity First, Service Before Self and Excellence in All We Do! Where are **s Core ValuesDoing the right thing, even when no one is looking!They can do a lot better than giving us $1000.

I was recently expecting a delivery from Home Depot on July 25,23. I then received a call from the delivery company XPO stating that their truck was broken Down and could not deliver my things anymore and it would be another 2 days. Well the next day I reviewed an email stating it would be TWO WEEKS. The delivery company told me to come pick up my merchandise if I did not want to wait. I installed it yesterday and noticed the dryer does not stay on and is so loud you can not run it in the home while anyone is home. It sounds like a train. I called the **** number and was told I signed off my warranty by picking it up but I never signed anything. My signature was forged and now I am stuck with a broken dryer. I called ******* and was told I needed to call the store first. The customer ********************** representatives I spoke with was very rude and would not help me. He told me I should just buy another one and count is as a $700 lost. I need a replacement asap. I have a family of 6 and I am being given the run around.

I told ***** about the wet stains, he replied, its water. A few days later when **************** (RFI Field Mgr) arrived at my home and replaced a quarter round rod that ***** installed on my kitchen floor that was split. I told ************************ said the stains on the deck were water but the stains are still here, why? ****** said ***** told him it is acetone. I told ****** to remove the stains. We talked about using a cleaning solution or power washing to remove the stains.On 3.28.23, ****** used a cleaning solution without success. On 5.9.23, he used an electric power washer on the stains and other areas of the deck. He used my electricity, my water and my water hose. A few days later when the water dried, the stains are still present on the wood deck floor.See photo showing the acetone-based stains are still on the wood deck floor after both stain removal attempts.THD ******************* opened case # ******** for the need to remove the stains but the group offered me a $150 THD gift card to close this issue. I rejected that offer and my counter offer was for THD to give me a THD check payable to me for $450. My offer was rejected.On 6.22.23, THD ************* Expediter, ****************** emailed to me the following, Unfortunately once our legal teams issue a final offer/denial letter there is no way to counter the offer or overturn it.We escalated your issue to our Senior manager and provided the final offer per their guidance.On 6.29.23, **** (THD manager) returned my call about THD removing the acetone-based stains and said, There is nothing I can do for you.Desired resolution:THD to remove the stains from my wood deck floor only or mail to me a THD check for $450.

On 8.25.23, I accepted the The Home Depot (THD) offer of their $450.00 gift card (I preferred and requested a company check or a money order payable to me, however, they refused to offer me either of those means of refund). This issue will not be closed until I receive the physical THD gift card in the mail. See the following communication below.
Good Morning,
Thank you for signing the accommodation letter. I have processed your $450 Home Depot Gift Card. It usually takes 5-7 business days to receive. However It could possibly take up to 10 business days. I will continue to monitor until you receive your Gift Card. Please let me know once you do receive it so I can make sure your taken care of. I shipped it to this address:

Good Afternoon,
I am sorry that I missed your call. I just spoken with my business partners asking why they have not sent over the document as of yet. They stated that it the same document that they have originally sent you stating a denial. In the letter it also states that we will honor a $450 Gift card. I had them resend the document over to you. It is labeled "DENIAL-ACCOMMODATION LETTER " Please sign that and I will process your Gift Card immediately. My apologies for the confusion.

Greetings,
The claim should not have been denied because your service supplier, ***************************, Field Manager of RF Insulations, LLC (RFI) did not do what I wanted. I wanted and still want the stains removed. However, if The Home Depot (THD) cannot or will not remove the statins that the RFIs worker (******************************* caused), then send to me a THD company check for $450.00 and this issue will be closed upon receipt of the company check.
Shown below are two photos concerning this issue: the first one is when ****************** used a simple cleaning chemical from a bottle and a hand brush on the deck floor unsuccessfully; the second one shows the stains were not removed after he used an electric power washer in an attempt to remove the stains but to no avail. The stains were still not removed.
Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated.
