      I made a Home Depot online purchase 6/17/2023 (attachment) for spray paint WP70414756 for $7.92. The purchase shows being processed. Several days went by and I called Home Depot ************** (3) times on 6/23/2023 to cancel the order because I went ahead and purchased the paint somewhere else since the order was taking so long. I was told that the order is not through Home Depot but Glideon paint company? Today, June 27, 2023 my bank account was charged the $7.92 again because the initial charge fell off of my account after several days. I purchased from the Home Depot website and it is Home Depot that is charging my account. If the item ordered was not in stock, the website should have stated that. Instead, Home Depot and *******? seem to want to hold my order and money hostage for not providing me the service I requested. I don't appreciate the holdup, the charge after the fact, not canceling the order, etc. I could care less if it is ******* that needs to cancel. The request was sent to them 3 times on 6/23/2023 when I called Home depot 3 times to make sure that happened. I have attached the delay notices as well as the call history with my online purchase and bank charge. Home Depot needs to be responsible for the merchants they deal with. I didn't place an order with ******* but Home Depot...

      I am rejecting this response because:  I dont understand what they mean by canceling the order and not refund my money?  What I think Home Depot is saying is they are going to keep the item and my money?  Thats definitely not a solution

      I purchased life proof carpet from Home Depot, I purchased the carpet specifically for the warranty. My carpet is coming up at the seams and losing its fibers, which is all covered in their lifetime warranty. Home Depot refuses to do anything about it stating its due to a water issue. Which there hasnt been any. They stated my tack strips were old and look like moisture got to them, I told them the installer never replaced my tack strips and they are from the previous carpet.

      So again I placed a order at homedepot online in the amount of $2,288.92. The reason for my large purchase is because I'm replacing items damaged in a flood from hurricane ***. After placing my order. I noticed homedepot took more out. Now after contacting customer ********************** they go on about a hold. There is no reason if I place a order a hold be made. I should be charged *** that's it a order of this magnitude caused my bank account to go almost negative. So I was pretty much charged double until it falls off it should be off instantly. I shouldn't have to wait cause of a hold you and lowes are doing the same thing. It's unnecessary. Now I'm forced to put paying my bills on hold *** risking late fees cause of a hold. This needs to be changed and the hold taken off. I was forced by my bank to stop all future payments from homedepot cause if this issue. I will never order online again. You might be lucky if I go back in the store too. Word of mouth is the best form of buisness so when you s**** someone of money like that it makes bad buisness. Upon looking at reviews after this is common so alot of pussed off customers. I need this resolved immediately. There is no point of a customer ********************** department if they don't have good customer ********************** skills. Very rude *** unhelpful.

      I have been attempting to receive a refund since 5/25/23 for a damaged/returned appliance of more than $4000. I have called Home Depot numerous times and each time am given a different reason for the delay but that a credit is on its way...first they said they needed to verity the appliance made its way back to GE, then I was just calling back to soon (I was told the credit actually takes **** days, not 3-5 as I had previously been told), then I was told someone didn't press a button to close my claim and so on. I was promised on 6/20/23 that again my credit would be processed in a *** of 3-5 business days. As of today, 6/27/22 I still have not been credited by Home Depot. I want my full refund plus the interest I have been incurring on my credit card. And how much interest is Home Depot making on money from me plus other customers whose credits they are not issuing. The original purchase of this item was back in March 2023. This is unacceptable.

      I placed an order for 1" x 4 ft x 8 ft (4 nos) and 1/2" x 48 ft x 8 ft (1 no) foam boards from Home Depot. I got an email from the store that my order is ready for pick-up and after I visited the store, they did not fulfill my order for the 1/2" x 48 ft x 8 ft foam board as per the purchase order and cancelled my order. When, asked, they refused to accept their mistake and resolve the issue. I lost my HD coupons that I used on this order and They bluntly said that I will have to take the issue with the corporate office directly, which I do not have access to.I kindly request you to resolve this issue and get my order fulfilled. I have attached the screenshots of my order and the product details that is in question.Thank you,-TK

      Second dud washing machine Ive purchased through Home Depot. Within 72 hours we found out it was a dud again. Contacted Home Depot about exchanging it out for another unit. Refuses to do so. Not looking for a refund, just to be met halfway. All representatives that I have spoken with, including the store manager, unwilling to help or assist. This is not how tours get done. this is unconscionable service from a company that I have use many times in the past for appliances. Just looking to be treated fairly. no one is even willing to actually really help with this issue. Just playing pass the buck.

      On 6/7/23 I ordered a custom made shade. Home Depot used two third party companies. One to measure and one to make the shades. Yesterday on 6/27/23, I called Coolaroo to ask when my shade would be shipped . They said theres a problem with my order they never received it all they have is my name and address and its best for me to cancel . I called Home Depot to cancel they said they would cancel the order yesterday I spoke with ***** who placed the order she said no problem she would cancel the $50 plus the ******. I spoke with ***** today whos stated shes in charge of canceling orders and she said she cant refund the $50. This was not my mistake this was Home Depots mistake. They gave me the wrong delivery date and I needed my shade in a timely manner and they knew this. According to the third party company who makes the shade they are unable to make it and they didnt say why. I was given the runaround . I dont do business this way ! Home Depot needs to own up to the mistake on their part. Im Looking forward to both refunds one for 50$ and the other for &******.Thank you

      I made an an order with home depot for appliances on 06/21/23 for a grand total of $1,750.79. I received a confirmation order, a delivery date of 06/29/23 and my credit card was charged. I received an email from my credit card company on 6/26/23, which I saw on 6/27/23, that I received a refund of the same amount from Home Depot. I contacted Home Depot 6/27/23 and was surprised to learn that Home Depot cancelled my order due to a pricing error. They never called or emailed me of any sort of cancellation. The agents advised that they were not able to honor the advertised pricing and it was even noted on my order by upper management not to offer any discounts. They offered to reissue the same order for $2,818.00. I did not accept. I understand they may reserve the right to cancel an order due to a pricing error and do not expect them to honor it. However, the issue is that they did not contact me which resulted in my inconvenience and financial loss. Thinking I was getting a good deal on new appliances, I agreed to give my old appliances away to a friend for free when I would have otherwise sold them (these were still good fairly modern appliances as I was just upgrading). Home Depot claimed that the notifications are automatically sent and that its probably in the spam folder, but it was definitely not in my case. I know how to check different folders for emails. It was never sent to me, probably because it was flagged somehow and even notated by upper management not to provide a discount, that it may have bypassed standard operations. Home Depot not only failed to provide any compensation for their pricing mistake or honoring their advertised pricing, but then also failed to acknowledge and take responsibility for their failed communication of the cancellation which resulted in not only a huge inconvenience but also a financial loss to me.
