***********************e said. I called Homemakers on June 26 and explain to the young lady that I bought 2 chairs that totaled $1,998, I was $2. away from meting $2,000. would they consider giving me the full offer, couldn't she honor it anyway. And she said this, you have to spend $1,000. on each item to get the $50. offer. She said that the computer does it automatically. And then she said that the salesman manually gave me $25. off each chair. I told her had I known that I really didn't get the offer I would have bought something else to get the offer. Then she told me that it doesn't work like that. Each Item has to be at least $1,000. to get the offer of $50. So, I spoke to 3 people and was never told this. So, you buy something for $1,998. and you will not get the $50. offer because neither item was $1,000. The salesman manually gave me $25. off each chair, but they couldn't do the $50. because the computer had to do it. I only wanted them to honor my request.

Placed a big furniture order totaling ******* in early March in which we were given dates and told it'd be free delivery. Got a call around March 10th-11th stating that we wld owe $279 for delivery and decided that it wldnt be worth it and decided to get something else that we didn't have to pay more money and wait so long for (from a different store). When I called to cancel, they said no problem... they never disclosed how long they would hold the money for. Waited like a week, decide to call back, they said it'll take FIFTEEN days, we'll that didn't happen... decide to call back and now they tell me up to THIRTY days bc it was an out of state order. Howww does that affect anything, why are we not being told upon canceling how long it takes for a refund? Why are refunds taking so long to process? How is it legal to just keep ahold of my almost $2500 and expect me to just be ok with it? Please please send me back my refund, this is such an unfair way to treat customers.Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.I am happy with the resolution. However, disappointed it took these measures to resolve something that should have been pretty much a no brainer.
Thank you for your interaction and am glad it has been resolved.
Sincerely,
her investigation on my part, it in fact did go back to my account. I also used 2 gift cards one for $87.07 and $25.00. On March 6th I was told there would be no refund for the 2 gift cards. After a rather heated discussion, I was told they would see what they could do to get the $87.07 refunded, but the $25.00 would not be refunded. I was told, multiple times in the conversation, the $25 was their money and it would not be eligible for a refund. That's crazy! On March 8 I did receive a gift card in the mail for the $87,07. This card has an expiration date of 4/15/24. Both gift cards that was originally used had an expiration date of 12/31/23. I did use both cards by the given dates, it was Homemakers that was not able to provide the purchased item. Why am I not able to receive the full refund?

I purchased a new mattress, adjustable bed frame, sheets, and a mattress cover from Homemakers in November 2023. I have my email confirmation showing that this was a 5 year interest free promotion yet when I got my bill, it does not show this promotion and the payment is much higher than it should be. This isnt a small amount of money, the mattress alone was almost $9000, in total the amount is almost $12,000. I have called multiple times to get this corrected and each time Im told it is waiting for the accounting **** to fix it. In the meantime their billing servicer cant fix the payment amounts and this is impacting my credit.Business Response

Paid Homemakers in full $2742.04 on October 30, 2023 for a sofa and delivery. After repeated failed deliveries due to damage in transit, Homemakers canceled the order on 02 Feb 2024 and said we would be fully refunded. After repeated calls requesting the refund and an updated refund receipt, were finally refunded $2698.81 on 14 Feb 2024. This is NOT a full refund. They still owe us $43.23 and have failed to communicate or provide an acceptable solution. Looking for a prompt FULL refund. Included original sales order with what we paid as well as a "screenshot" of the PARTIAL refund which was apparently the best they could do.Business Response

I purchased an item online on 10/29/23. After a month passed I had not received an order update, I contacted Homemakers by phone and was told the order was on back order until around 12/17/23. I waited until that date passed and still did not receive an order update or the product, so I contacted Homemakers by phone again about December 22, 2023 and was told that the item was on back order until mid-January 2024 and that I was #6 on a "list" waiting for the product and hopefully I would get on of the item when the shipment came in. I decided to purchase a comparable item elsewhere and requested a refund due to all of the hassle. I was told that the accounting department was behind on issuing refunds so it would be about 3 weeks before I received the refund. I have called multiple times, left voicemails, emailed customer support and submitted online chats to find out where my refund is. I just keep getting told that the notes in the computer show I have called and the accounting department is "working on the refund". It is 2024, NO refund takes this long to process. Homemakers has had my $370 for over 3 months now. I have tried to rectify this myself, but they are clearly looking to *** me, the customer. I enjoy shopping at this retailer and prior to this bought 2 couches from them, so this is very disappointing.Business Response

(didn't even leave the parking lot with merchandise)Was told refund amount of $863.49 would be refunded in 3 business days. After a week of no refund I called store inquiring about my refund was told it would be 3 weeks. It has been 3 weeks and I still have not received my refund of $863.49.I tried contacting the store again and have not been able to reach anyone regarding this matter. I would like my refund of $863.49 since I do not have the merchandise. They did provide a return receipt that I am attaching but have not received my refund on my credit card.This is poor business ethics!Business Response
