      I am writing to formally express my frustration and disappointment with my recent experience at BrandsMart, located at ***************************************. During a recent visit I was misled by a store clerk regarding a Memorial Day Buy More, Save More promotional rebate. The primary reason I decided to purchase the package was the rebate being advertised in-store. However, after the purchase I discovered the rebate promotion was not honored as expected. This constitutes false advertising and I have taken photos of the promotional signage as evidence. All four of the appliances I purchased were on the list. BrandsMart needs to arrange to pick up the entire package I purchased due to false advertising.

      On March 8, 2025, I purchased a leather recliner. After a few weeks it had broken. I called cx and was told a person would have to come look at the chair. After someone came, they suggested that I ask for a replacement. The tech submitted the report and I had to pursue an answer which took weeks before finally getting a replacement. A replacement chair was delivered and I was satisfied in the end. A few weeks later, the replacement broke in the same exact way. Again, I was told that someone would need to look at the chair or that I'd need to send in pictures. I was told by the independent repair company that it would be a month before a technician could come out to look at the chair. All I'd like is a store credit so that I could pick a different model. I'm not even seeking a refund. I have been emailing with agents that do not even provide their name and was told that they already did me a favor once by replacing the chair. After about 5 requests a manager called me back and was so condescending. They told me there is a 0 day return and it was up to the manufacturer. I went to express my dissatisfaction (in a calm friendly way) and was hung up on. As a cx manager myself, I was shocked and am now.paying for a chair that I can not use.

      I had to sign for a package delivered to me. I opened it, It was some electronic pencil and some I-phone case. I do not own an I phone, have no use for that dumb pencil. I called the Brandsmart number, they tried to sell me some health or life insurance. I believe this is charged to a Fortiva credit card, which I also never signed up for. They don't answer their phone either. Card number for that scam is7656502175971149. I have no clue who is using my name for the card and/or other purchases

      I purchased a refrigerator from them and purchased their warranty. I have been calling them for many months now about the refrigerator not making ice due to it freezing which apparently it's a well known issue based on all the service technicians that have come to fix the same issue with no luck only patch repairs. This will be the 4th service call for the same repair and all they keep doing is patch the repair so my warranty expires soon and then they don't have to because responsible for the replacement of my unit. I would like to get reimbursed for my faulty refrigerator so I can purchase a good working refrigerator. I was told that if they can't repair it after a few attempts I would qualify for a replacement/reimbursement. Now they are just changing their story and trying to patch a repair before my warranty runs out in 1 month.

      Bought a dryer from Brandsmart. They informed me that I to install it I needed to buy a vent and a cord. My old cord was fine and I asked them if I could do the electrical install myself and have them do the rest. They said that would not be a problem. I then asked a second individual (before paying) the same question. On delivery day they refused to do anything - even move the dryer into place because I didn't have the cord. I talked with a manager who hung up on me over the phone. Unacceptable. It's not even the cost of the cord for me -- I see it as waste. I did purchase a dryer vent from them because they said they would install it. They did not honor their word. I already wired up the cord. I only ask that they install

      Order Should show *************** may be under my husbands number ********** or ********** In November 2024, I purchased a refrigerator from BrandsMart with a clear request for the removal of the old unit as part of the delivery. When the refrigerator was delivered, it was missing the icemaker.BrandsMart returned two more times and eventually delivered the missing icemaker, but the installers stated they could not complete the installation due to copper wiring. I had to hire and pay a plumber out-of-pocket to resolve the wiring issue.Since then, Ive called at least 10 times over the last four months to inform BrandsMart that the wiring is ready and to request installation of the icemaker and removal of the old refrigeratorwhich, to this day, remains in the middle of the living room.Ive left multiple messages for **** ******, the store manager, and have received no follow-up or resolution.This situation is unacceptable. My tenant is now extremely frustrated and may leave the apartment due to this ongoing issue. Im seeking immediate action to have the icemaker installed and the old refrigerator removed.Please help resolve this matter.

      After purchasing an extended warranty for my dishwasher, they are failing to honor it.A technician was at my house twice and really didn't know what he was doing. he spent most of the time on the phone with his office. After the second appointment he said he had to order parts. After 2 weeks I called, and they said it wasn't covered due to an infestation of bugs. There are no bugs. He couldn't fix it so he made up a story for his office so he wouldn't have to come back. Every time I call the service department, I get a run around with no answers.

      There is no infestation. The so called technician was out twice and did not know how to fix the dishwasher. He was on the phone most of the time and probably was told to make up the story of infestation. My wife had to show him how to remove the dishwasher from the cabinet and put it back in. He said he changed the drain hose, but its still the original. There was no problem with the drain. Anyone can see its the celonide for the fill cycle. Its a $39 part, but he did not have any idea.

      Unfortunately this was an issue that the customer had with the warranty **********************, which we are still assisting them with.  

      The warranty company originally denied the customer's claim due to there were infestation in the unit.

      We were able to get them to re open the claim for the customer, and was able to force them to send another service company for a second opinion.

      As per Guardsman ( the warranty company ) the parts are on order for this customer at this time and they will be completing the repair.
