      I purchased an umbrella for my home. In less than three months the Umbrella broke. I called to get it picked up or get a replacement. I was told I had to have the original box to return it via *** or take it to the store. The umbrella weighs more than 100lbs. I dont have the means to take it to the store obviously, nor I have the original box (or any box that big) to ship it. They DO have a pick up service, they just dont want to honor it. I dont have anyone that could help me to take it to the store either. Theyve been very rude and expect me to keep this broken item. One agent arranged the pick up, but then I got an e-mail saying they cancelled it. I suggested I get a replacement and then use that box to ship the broken one. They asked me to pay again for the replacement. Its crazy how they expect regular people to return broken/bad quality items. They do it like that, so people like me have to get stuck with broken stuff. Might I say, I am within the warranty timeframe.Order # WB36805217

      I ordered several Jeld-Wen doors thru Home Depot and have had several issues with one of the doors. The original door was a defective, poor paint job and it took several months to replace it. The second door that replaced the first one is warped and the space is large enough to see the outside and is a major air leak and water and moisture barrier intrusion. The door jam itself has multiple cracks and again this has led to rain, snow and moisture intrusion into this jam from this poor, substandard material. The purchase and installation was done by a Home Depot subcontractor and the flawed product material was provided by ********. The weather stripping on the bottom of the two of the doors is also peeling back. I have filed a complaint with ******** case # ********. Home Depot has promised to replace the jam as ******** has refused to accept responsibility for their defective product. I have complained about these issues to Home Depot and was promised by the store manager they would be resolved only to find out this week that the store manager has been transferred to another store. I cannot express in words the complete and total dissatisfaction with both ******** for defective poor products and Home Depot for there failure to live up to their promises.*****************************

      RE: *********************************** / BBB Case #: 19970104



      Dear **************:


      We acknowledge the receipt of the BBB Case #: 19970104.


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

      The Home Depot has reviewed this case and offers the following resolution. The Home Depot partnered with the Store Team and Installers, who will provide the customer with a new jamb and new install. To clarify, the frame itself is perfectly installed, and our installer is working with the store to take care of the customer, partially at their own cost. The jamb is being ordered at store cost and will take in excess of 4 weeks to be delivered to the store. We will be monitoring for a more definitive date as the jamb moves into the production phase.

      With that being said, The Home Depot considers this matter closed. We will continue following up with the customer accordingly. 

      Please know that it is The Home Depots goal to satisfy all of our customers with the products and services that we provide. The Home Depot values its customers patronage and looks forward to servicing their future home improvement needs. Please contact me should you have any additional questions or concerns.

      Complaint: 19970104

      I am rejecting this response because: Home Depot has yet to actually fix the door and jam that has been a problem since the original purchase. The frame has not been supplied and there has not been a agreed upon install date agreed upon. Home Depot never addressed the complaint about the weather stripping  on the bottom of the door being broken on two doors nor offered to replace it. Until the job is finished and installed properly the complaint should stay open. The job must be finished and then when done to my satisfaction will I sign off on it.

      Complaint: 19970104

      I am rejecting this response from Home Depot because: As I have stated before that until the new door and new jam are installed the case should remain open. I have not seen the new door and the jam is on back order. The problem with the jam was cracked material that was allowing moisture to seep into it. I never claimed an installation issue. I have always maintained a poor materials issue. Finally, the weather stripping at the bottoms of two doors has ripped. Until all of these issues are resolved and the ************ and new jam are installed the case should remain open.

      As of April 13, 2023 my Home Depot Consumer Credit Card was closed without any knowledge or prior notification therefore of. My account was in good standing without a balance and used seasonally. I went to purchase a lawn mower in preparation for prom and was notified that the account was closed. I contacted customer ********************** provided in the email, to express that my credit report was obtained without my knowledge or consent and was told under there terms it can be obtained at any moment. This is incorrect it is to only be obtained in the event of a requested credit line increase or due lack of payment history with any inquiry not a hard pull which effected my FICO score. There have been local reports of banks prohibiting minority borrowers accounts within certain areas of which I happen to reside in. My income is substantially higher than most within my area, I own my home and have a current married status which is more than 150% of income per the $500 credit limit provided.

After a month I received an email that my claim was closed due to inactivity and to call back *************) and a specialist would process a new claim for reimbursement, I called back and was on the phone for over 2 hours and was transferred to 21 times. I then asked for a supervisor. I talked to ******* and he told me he could not help me. I then called back again for another supervisor, which I then spoke to (***************). She told me "I was in Good hands now and she would fix it". She asked a few questions and told me she would email me another affidavit in 2 min to sign and I would then receive my payment. It has been a day and no affidavit.

      Timeline for Home Depot Ordered product March 30,2023 Order Number: WP62874674 Delivered: April 11, 2023 Dryer proved to be defective and returned same day. New dryer ordered and delivered April 18, 2023. This dryer also proved to be defective, it would turn on but would not heat up.Call was made to Home Depot on this day and I explained the problem to them. They stated that a refund was forth coming and a pick-up of the defective dryer would be made on April 21, 2023. Home Depot did not pick-up the defective dryer and only credited my account $57.25 on April 18, 2023 for dryer accessories. Since Home Depot failed to pick up the defective dryer on the promised date of April 21, 2023 I called their 800 number and as I explained the problem to their representative I was put on hold several times and was subsequently told to call my local Home Depot. I deemed that was not acceptable and asked to talk to a supervisor. I was again put on hold on and for approximately ********************************************************************************************************* when I called to have the defective dryer picked up. At the time I did not remember the exact date but a check of my phone records revealed that I called Home Depot regarding the defective dryer on April 18, 2023. It seems that Home Depot has a policy of reporting a defective product within 48 hours of delivery. So, my call was well within those parameters. So, the information provide to me by the Home Depot representatives was basically incorrect and conflicting. I then simply asked that the defective product be picked up and a refund be forthcoming. The representative supervisor refused my request.

      On March 29, 2023, I placed a ProSales order a kitchen project. The store set the entire order up. Some of the cabinets were to be delivered while some of the cabinets were to arrive at the store. To date, I am getting the run around as the store is saying that the cabinets have been picked up however, they have not.4 cabinets were delivered as scheduled and my contractor picked up 2 cabinets which he signed for and an automatic email was generated with proof of him signing for the 2 cabinets. Please note I paid for 11 cabinets in total. Why is it so hard to retrieve my cabinets? Sure, he signed for 2 cabinets which leaves me with a total of 6 cabinets, but my project has been on hold because I am spending time telling this story over and over instead of there being a remedy. If they cannot render me the cabinets, there is no point in me maintaining the other 6 cabinets thus they can render me a refund for them, and I will be done shopping with them as this makes no sense whatsoever.I have called customer ********************** multiple times and was advised of different things each time. For clarity the store called me stating that since my order as going to be picked up by the contractor, they would refund my delivery fee however they failed to render the cabinets when he arrived. This is poor customer **********************, and I am frustrated.

      I am rejecting this response because: a refund was issued with the request for me to purchase the cabinets over again for them to be delivered.  At this time the matter is still pending as I am waiting on the cabinets. It should be advised that Home Depot has called me today 5/1/23 to advise that they placed the toe kick attachments on the wrong truck which further delays in my project.  This continues to be a nightmare.

      I purchased an electric lawn mower and other law power tools online from this store and the items were never delivered. The company, Home Depot, stated that since they have a relationship with the shipper and the shipper provided evidence the item was delivered they can not do anything about it.

      I have reached out to the Home Depot in ************, ** on three different occasions to resolve this problem with no action being taken. I returned 17 cases of vinyl flooring on 4/10/2023 after the installer stated that the flooring recommended by Home Depot was not strong enough for the contracted flooring job. I have not received a refund to my card for the purchase. I have called and spoken to staff at the store who stated they would check into the situation and return my call (3) times. So far no one has returned my call, provided any update or refunded my credit card.

      Date of transaction-04/2/2023 order # WB42101880 Amount $581.57 I ordered and paid for new flooring. My selection was not in stock, so ********************* placed an order to have it delivered to my house. The order came in about 10 days later via **** Upon arrival, I immediately noticed that the boxes were damaged. I went into the where they ordered(****** **) and i spoke to a gentleman by the name of *********************, and he was extremely rude and aggressive and stated that was the fault of **** not the store. I acknowledged that it probably was *** fault, but I need a replacement because I own a construction company and the homeowners needed their floors done ASAP. His response was "oh well" nothing i can do about that and walked away. ***** then assisted me and she was extremely nice and made me aware that she can order 600 sq ft for me but it will take about 2 weeks for delivery. ***** again was extremeely nice and seemed like she wanted to help, but I cannot wait 2 weeks for floors, especially when I waited 2 weeks for damaged goods. I explained to ***** that i own my own construction company, and have spent tens of thousands of dollars at this location, and for a manager to tell me "oh well" is really unacceptable. I need 600sq ft of the flooring that was ordered, undamaged right away before I lose this contract. If I do, I will be seeking legal actions for compensation. I would like to continue to do business with Home Depot, but i have no problem taking my business and my referrals to another business, which treats their customers with a high level of respect and courtesy. 600sq ft of flooring is all I'm asking, and i will be more than happy to return the damaged product that i currently have.
