Absolutely burglary
Recently the water heater unit at my condo broke down. I called a dozen of plumbing companies that would replace the failed unit within a few hours. Their quotes including workmanship were between $850-1100. I decided to go with HomeDepot, which quoted $670 for the new unit, professional installation and inspection. I ended up staying at home on a work day waiting for the technicians to show up which was scheduled for 8:00am. They did not. In the afternoon we called to learn the dispatcher had forgotten to inform them about the work. So we had to reschedule for the next morning, first day of long weekend. They again did not show up till 2pm and they quoted me additional $500 to replace a 2foot long aluminum pipe! I got pissed and sent the equipment back despite the risk of having to take cold showers for another couple of days. Moerover it took 3 hours of phone tag to get our money back. At the end I had a plumbing company install the same unit HomeDepot sells for $700 overall within 3 hours.

I think HomeDepot exploits the consumer for in equipment installation. They made us wait one full work day and a long weekend day to quote and additional $500 for a pipe. This is absolutely burglary on my book. As of now, I will never use HomeDepot services and certainly davice the people I care about against it.

Shame on them
I called ahead to check on availability of 2 pieces of Styrofoam panels. I asked if I could get some assistance tying the panels to my SUV roof. No problem is what I'm told. I drive 32 miles one way to get them, ask for help, a nice associate didn't feel he was talented enough so I asked if he could get someone else. A front-end manager comes out and says they are not allowed to assist for liability reasons. I ask for the store manager (DAVE) who tells me the same. I again explain the phone call and the fact that I have lived in 3 different states and never have I had this experience at a Home Depot . He said he would help throwing the rope under the roof but not tie it as I was "a grown man."

Here is my sentiment: Advertise you DON'T help, put signs all over the place, and inform ALL of your associates.

I'd be more inclined to shop elsewhere in the first place then. I won't be shopping at Home Depot ever again. The above incident occurred today April 4, 2008.

By the way, I have pictures of the "load" sign you have in front of the store. NO mention we don't tie.

If you reply back to me stating company policy, don't waste your time. I'm looking for some understanding of THIS particular incident and I don't need more repetition of what two of your employees already told me.

Shame on Home Depot.

Simply shocked
I have spent Voo-Coos of money at your Wal-Mart Stores all over. I feel you are wrong buy taking the lay-away plan away. Since Bush has been in office it has hurt Americans all over finanually. Sometimes the lay-away helps people to get what they want. I am totally against your rules on this subject. I think you ought to reinstate the lay-away plan. I have talked to many people, and they agree with me, but yet not smart enough to write their feelings down.

Horrible to work with
I am remodeling my kitchen and just went (1/5/08)to Home Depot to shop for the works - cabinets, counters, appliances. The customer service was TERRIBLE! When I asked to look at appliances I was told to look at cabinets first, however, the woman in that department just shuffled around and handed me brochures. She acted annoyed - as if I was keeping her from her work. I suggested that if she had something I was interupting that maybe we could talk later, but she replied that she wasn't busy. The questions I did ask were answered with one or two words at most.

Finally I went back to appliances and was "helped" with a man who also treated me as if I were keeping him from something he needed to do. Again I offered that he take care of it and get back to me, again I was told that he wasn't busy, again he acted annoyed the entire time! When I left I sat in my car and called their local customer service. After talking to one person, I did get in touch with someone who listened, but I hung up knowing that he would do nothing. They are HORRIBLE to work with!!!

I can't help think that they are more attentive to couples or men. They were intently helping all of the couples that I saw in the kitchen areas.

Will never buy anything from them again
We purchased Goodyear tires from Wal-Mart in Conway, S.C. The belts separated in two of the tires with less than 15000 miles. I contacted Goodyear and was told that these tires were made for wal-mart and goodyear would not stand behind them. I contacted Wal-Mart and my wilf took the car in and they replaced a valve stem. Do they think everyone is an idiot? I contacted the main office per E-Mail with no response. I will never buy anything from a company like this no matter how low the price.

Very disappointed
I'm very disappointed in the new Super Wal Mart in Gilroy, Ca. The check out lanes in this Super store on Dec. 12 were 3, one was 10 items or less. We stood in line longer then it took us to shop and this was after work on Wen. 6:10 PM dinner time. My daughter had her 1 year old she fussed through the whole thing not to say she needed her pants changed. The rest room was being cleaned as always and it had a line. The clerk name, Victor P while checking me out was looking all around the store...By then I had, had it... I said if you would pay attention to what you were doing this long line wouldn't be as long. You see all of these people here well they are waiting on you. Get this, he said, " I'm tired" I said well then you need to go home...On my way out I ask to speak to the manager. I waited another 15 min.!!! My daughter went to the car with the baby.

I told the manager I had had it I wasn't going to shop here again and I have friends that say the same thing. I was just at Super Target and all check lanes were open and I was check very fast and the cashier ran me through with no problem and was very up beat. The manager said I'm very sorry and I will put more cashiers out. She said they just had a meeting and hopefully this was going to change. I said well I want you to know I have been in here several times and it has not changed, it's a new store I have gave it a good chance to changes and this is the worst I have seen it... What ever happen to costumer service...I'm so surprised with the work force and the pride people have for there Jobs.

I feel better for telling on them.! Thank you for allowing me...

Terrible company
The Wal=Mart Company here in Grants, New Mexico knows that that the townspeople have no choice but to go to them since we are about 80 miles from a city. Their handicap spaces are always taken by people with no placards! We have had to walk from the last aisle way out in nowhere because of this. We have complained but they don't listen. And try to find a manager, you mught as well go look for gold. I have seen 80 yr. old people have to take out their wheelchair and go into the store from where they parked way off somewhere in the parking lot. What would it take to have someone in charge check the handicap parking areas once in a while? When you see a teenager get into a car in the handicap parking, throw yourself down and tell them you can't go any further because they took your parking place.

Non consumer friendly company
On 10/10/07 I purchased a GE Refrigerator at Home Depot . The first attempt to deliver the refrigerator upon inspection discovered the refrigerator was dented at the bottom. The driver says he's authorized to allow me up to $30 for the damage. I told him I did not pay for a dented refrigerator and that I was refusing the delivery.

2nd attempt of delivery refirgerator installed old refrigerator hauled away. By that evening I discovered that each time I opened the refrigerator the whole unit would come forward. Moving forward very easily to the point that my 9 year old grandson could pull the entire refrigerator forward just by opening it. I immediately called the delivery person to see if he could make the adjustment since it was obviously not operating right. He returned the next day checked on the leveling and everything was fine as far as he could see other than that the whole refrigerator would move forward. Then he proceeded with well, you know you could get some door stoppers, or those casters and put it in front to stop it from moving. I was like what? No, that's not acceptable.

I call and speak to a manager at Home Depot. Of which each time I asked to speak to a General Manager and every time I called or entered the store the General Manager either wasn't there, off or not in till the next day. I finally agreed to meet with a Assistant Store Manager who we agreed I would upgrade the refrigerator they would "give" me an allowance of up to $100 for the inconvenience.

They refunded the original cost of the first refrigerator (which took five days to post back to my debit purchase which is as good as cash) then I had to turn around and repurchase the second refrigerator at an additional cost to me of $75.00. I want to add that we had contacted GE who pointed the finger to the driver and Home Depot saying it was their issue. Their recomendations were: 1) anchor the refrigerator to the wall; 2) anchor the refrigertor to the tile floor; 3) put carpet under my refrigerator; 4) put stoppers in front of the refrigerator. I don't know how many of you out there have ever anchored your refirgerator to the wall or floor but if you have I'm sure it wasn't an easy task.

Come delivery of the "new" better refrigerator yesterday the 31st, and guess what. The driver said the "new" refrigerator has the exact same wheels as the one already in the house. So upon contacting Home Depot again to find out what should I do they instructed to refuse the refrigerator oh yeah, and by the way they were already sending someone out to pick up the one in the house the first purchase. Through all this headache I decided to forget it and not deal with Home Depot at all. Returned to the store to get a refund to which they want to charge a re-stock fee, of something that was defective to begin with. I argued about that got my full refund after having to argue with their "customer service" people. Once again this purchase made on a debit card is now being credited back to my account as though I made a credit card purchase which I did not.

Needless to say I realize this is a long comment but needed to be posted somewhere, I will never set foot in a Home Depot. I may only be one customer but I have a lot of family and I will make sure everyone I know knows of this experience and I may even go to the media on it. They had no regard I might add to the food that was in my refrigerator and even told so much as "they would loan" me a refrigerator if I were making a purchase with them on a new one. I said no, bring back my old refrigerator and when the money is posted back to my account then you can have the refrigerator in my home.

HOME DEPOT IS A VERY NON-CONSUMER FRIENDLY COMPANY WITH MANAGEMENT THAT NEEDS A LOT OF INTENSE TRAINING IN PEOPLE SKILLS OR INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION.

Not customer friendly
The easiest way to sum it up is to include the email I sent straight to Home Depot for the headache they are causing this holiday season:

I would like to launch a complaint about the store in Dover, NJ. (Rockaway Area) A few weeks ago I had gone into the store to purchase custom closet doors for my bf. Because of how long we waited they knocked 50$ off of the price. The day before yesterday we found out by calling the store that the doors were discontinued. So last night we went to the store to get the money back for the doors. We were greeted by an aggressive woman who had no business working in customer service as she did not want to help customers. Finally a person above her made her help us. She was grumpy and failed to mention that if she was crediting my debit card back it could hold up the money being put back onto my card by 48 hours to two weeks. This morning when I called she was not happy to hear back from me. I had gone into my bank account and noticed the money had not been credited back to my bank account. While I had purchased the doors etc under my bf's name we ran it all through my credit card. When I started asking her questions about it she was short and rude. She stated she would be looking into it and not realizing she hadn't hung up the phone said "What the *** is this lady's problem" in a nasty tone.

I called the store back and did not receive much extra help in resolving this issue. I tried to speak with a manager named Dan on the phone who while sympathetic was trying to put blame on me for not asking how long it would take for the money to come into my account. So now, my money is tied up, I can't get what I had started out to, and they didn't care how this was an inconvenience. We have been spending money there non stop lately as we are doing a lot of work on the house.

Please help me learn what can be done to solve this. Its christmas time and I'm out money that I need because of your people. I'm also insulted and can't believe how people who are in customer service supposed to represent your company treat people.
