I am filing this complaint on behalf of my Mother, *********************************, ************************************************************. Im filing for her because she is currently 90 years old and will be 91 on 05/27/2023, and specifically because she does not have the internet, access to the internet, only a land line phone, and no emailessentially an old school senior citizen. I am her son, *********************************** On 03/20/2023, I took my my to the Home Depot Store near her residence she frequently shops at, Home Depot Store #***, **************************************************************************. We asked to speak to the manager on duty who identified herself as **********. We explained the following: for many years my mom has shopped at that Home Depot and always was provided the Veterans discount when she checked out and showed her military dependent identification card and was always provided the discount. She recently tried using her veterans discount when checking out and was denied because the store employee informed her she had to register online to obtain the discount. She informed them she had no computer to do that, and didnt have the internet. The store employee suggested she call the district corporate office which she did, she explained her situation and the district corporate office said they couldnt help her. We asked ********** if she could intervene and help out and she said she could not. Home Depot advertises they support Veterans and their families and offer this discount, but apparently not for anyone who doesnt have a computer or internet access. My mother feels this policy discriminates against senior citizen Veteran family members who do not have computers or access to the internet to utilize this advertised discount.Business Response

Purchased a washer and dryer on October 18, 2022, in the amount of $2,717.93 at Store #**** (*******, **). Due to a delay in ordering a part, the washer and dryer were not delivered and set up until November 28, 2022. Upon using the dryer several days later I noticed that the dryer was making an extremely loud, grinding noise during operation. I call and set up an appointment with Electrolux, the manufacturer of the unit, and their repair person came out on December 14, 2022. Upon turning on the dryer, the repair person immediately looked around the perimeter of the dryer and found a large dent on the rear portion of the right side of the dryer. He immediately thereafter diagnosed the problem, stating the dent in the dryer was causing the drum to grind against the interior of the dryer. He said that was caused by the dryer being dropped and /or mishandled at some point prior to the set up in my house by the Home Depot delivery personnel. He further indicated that this was not the kind of repair covered by the manufacturer's warranty. I have never handled the dryer nor was I involved in the set up of the dryer inside my residence. I went to Store #**** on December 19, 2022 and spoke with the store manager. She indicated to me that I should have returned the equipment within 48 hours per their policy and I should have purchased the warranty for the machine. I told her that nothing was wrong with the machine, per the manufacturer, other than the fact that the machine was mishandled and therefore damaged due to the negligence of Home Depot and that Home Depot is responsible for addressing the situation.According to Electrolux, there is nothing wrong with the dryer other than the large dent due to mishandling prior to set up. I feel that Home Depot should address and repair or replace the dryer. The cost of the dryer is #1,198.00 (Electrolux Model #ELFG7637ATO). Repair estimate from Electrolux is $722.10.Business Response

On March 30,2023 I purchased a floor lamp manufactured by Hampton Bay at Habitat for Humanity Restore store in ***************. The lamp box was unopened and in the original Home Depot packaging., On trying to assemble the lamp it was impossible to attach the lamp head to the column as the threads were too short to adhere to the column. Clearly a fault in the manufacturing. The lamp is useless. I called the Restore store and their sales are final. I called Home Depot and was told that as the lamp wasn't purchased from their retail store, they would do nothing. If you read the reviews of the lamp, there are many complaints about the lamp. Sooo Home Depot "donated" faulty lamps (and probably received a tax credit) and the lamp are absolutely worthless. So where do I stand as a consumer... I understand the Restore's policy, but Home Depot needs to stand behind their products. I paid $30, less a 30$ discount for garbage!!!Business Response

I ordered a GE refrigerator from Home Depot, delivered on 2/15/2023. In the first week, I noted the defrost was heating the freezer to 60 degrees. I followed instructions and finally got a GE tech out who said my defrost thermostat and control panel were bad and had been since delivery date. Also stated the compressor would go in the next month. Its not even been 60 days and Im having a major repair with another one in the near future. I asked Home Depot if I could exchange this appliance for one of equal or greater value and was told NO. Their policy is *********************************************** the first 48 hours so it wasnt even possible for me to know it was broken. They sold me a broken appliance and now refuse to exchange it, even for one of greater value. It cost me $775.00 for the appliance and protection plan.Business Response

We signed a contract with Home Depot for a complete kitchen remodel 7/2022. We were told the job would be completed earlier enough for Thanksgiving. Home Depot did not show up to do the job. They made promises that it would be completed by Thanksgiving, then Xmas. We received no up dates we waited for our kitchen remodel. We finally contacted ****** who was handling things,she said she was sent to a ********* store and had left someone to take over for her &they never ordered materials. ****** said she would not charge us ***** for a earlier change we made. Once again no one came to do our remodel. No one Showed up to do our remodel in Aug,Sept,Oct,,Nov, Dec.After multiple calls to them and excuses from them. We again contacted complaint **** in in *******, they intern had ******** contact **. She said she would take an additional ***** hundred off of our bill and promised to do our remodel. In January they had a demolition cabinet builder person come to start the remodel,after he took the kitchen sink ,stove,bathroom sink,partial bathroom counter top and wall apart,disconnected water supply to our kitchen and was ready to start working and realized Home Depot had not supplied cabinet doors,also did not put in the changes for the island and our new sized stoved that they had measured and seen..At this point my husband and I have no confidence in Home Depot. We want our money back. ***** the sales manager called, stating we would be responsible for 35 percent restocking feeds. My contract states if its their fault there is no restocking fees to the consumer. ***** stated they our keeping our 35 percent. Home Depot has taken over 40 thousand plus from us without starting our remodel, also using our garage to store their material. This has been a nightmare. ***********************Business Response

On April 21, 2021 I purchased a unit from Home Depot in ********, ** by applying for a home depot credit card. I have made my payments on time and in an effort to pay off my balance I have on occassions made payments in excess of $1000 or more. I received a letter recently regarding that it was almost the end of my 24 month promotional period and that I now owe in excess of $5000 in interest. In 2 years I have paid over $3000 ( I always pay more than my minimum of $55 monthly). When I contacted Home Depot I was informed some of my payments went to promotion 1 and the others went to promotion 2 and even if I pay off my balance today I will still owe for interest. This is a scam and was never fully explained to me that we would go from 0% interest to at 24 months they are backdating a balloon of ****% interest monthly. I now owe almost 2x as much as the cost of the original unit. This is ridiculous, fraudulent, and has left me mentally and financially distraught.Business Response

We purchased a special order patio door through Home Depot and was charge the full amount on 11/4/2022. The door arrived in late December 2022, and the contractor associated with Home Depot removed our current patio door in early January 2023 and discovered that a part was missing. Home Depot representative ordered a new part, however the wrong part was sent in late February 2023. Another order of the missing part was made as a rush, expediated request however it is now April 3, 2023 and we still do not have the patio door installed. There is current pile wood over the patio door area since the contractor could not reinstall the old door. We have escalated this through Home Depot and keep being told they have escalated this to ******** Windows to obtain the correct part for installation. Home Depot has had our full payment for 5 months and we do not have the product installed.Business Response

At the self checkout, I accidently scanned my gift card first instead of scanning my "store credit" card. ***** (assigned cashier) came over to help. After explaining my error, I gave my "store credit" card to ***** and she scanned it. Then ***** asked for my ID so I gave it to her. ***** then asked who *************************** was. I told her she is my mom. ***** abruptly told me that I could not use the store credit and only *************************** could use it and that "this is to prevent theft". I tried explaining that, as a favor & because I was sick with Covid-19, my mom returned a purchase (bathroom sink unclogging solution with a valid receipt & within 90 days) I originally made with my gift card. Instead of refunding in the original form of payment, Home Depot issued a "store credit" card under my mom's name. ***** said that it didn't matter and denied further assistance with my store credit. I was furious. Upon arriving home, I called to complain and got absolutely nowhere with the gentleman that answered the phone. In fact, that gentleman sarcastically encouraged me to call or write corporate to file a complaint.I definitely feel scammed by Home Depot. Nowhere on Home Depot's website does it state that customers are required to present a valid ID in order to redeem store credit. It only states that a valid ID is required for non-receipt returns and/or past 90 days (for tracking & theft prevention purposes). Another thing, Home Depot not refunding in the original form of payment when gift cards are used is quite suspicious. Instead, they issue a "store credit" card even though a valid receipt is presented within 90 days. That makes absolutely no sense. This is not clear and transparent bookkeeping for anybody especially the **** investors, etc. And to make things worse, Home Depot employees are refusing business if the individual is not the same person linked to the store credit.Business Response
