  On July 22nd, I ordered a new washing machine from this company. On my final receipt The Delivery date was set to be July 29th. Instructions were to await information on the deliver time the day before between a certain time, and that time came and went without contact. Thinking it would possibly just show up, I waited at the home (2nd home, for business, in *******, **) but never received a call, and nobody showed up. I called, and they said it should still be coming and to call back if it did not, ensuring me there were 2 on the truck and 1 is "most definitely" mine. No one came, and I called again. I was then told that they had a warehouse issue, and it will be to me on the 31st. Once again, it never showed. I am now on my 17th call with my 5th delivery date, and have been told it was logistic issues, a glitch in the system, added to the wrong region in *******, and that my area only delivers on a certain day (not the day they are guaranteeing now). I have still not received it. They cancelled my order, and reissued it, ensuring this will solve the problem, but I have yet to receive any insurance that it will show up. Also, the second bill is COD (Cash on Demand), although I paid on the 23rd of july, and have yet to receive a refund. I am without a washing machine, with a wife and 2 children, since July 16th. Also stuck 400 miles away from my Home, waiting, without any reasonable solution. Their showroom is less than 5 miles away from here as well, and was at one time told they do not deliver to my zip code.

  It was delivered on the 9th (5th date given) as promised. However, they refused to take my old one as was originally requested. It does more or less mean they delivered, so I can say that they satisfied my complaint. They also said they will send someone on Monday for the old one, and will update as needed.

  On May 25, 2024, we purchased a loveseat and single recliner which was delivered on May 28, 2024 damaged. Due to serious health condition was able to contact *******************, the floor Manager, the person who sold us the furniture and explained to him we received the furniture damaged, June 20, 2024. He had wrote his cell phone number on the receipt. He stated he would look into the matter and Brandsmart would call us. June 21, 2024 Brandsmart called my husband and left a voice mail requesting a call back to ************. I returned the call. They requested photos of the damage, provided an email address the photos were to be sent to and the Invoice Number. The photos were emailed on June 24, 2024. July 1, 2024 I called Brandsmart to get a status on the case. I was told they have not started processing the file as yet. I am to call back. I told them the person responsible needs to start doing some work and I will not be calling back. They called back, left a voice mail on my husbands phone requesting a call back. I returned the call only to be told they have not started processing the claim. We went to Brandsmart July 6, 2024 and spoke with ****. He took us to his manager and explained the situation to him. He went on the computer and stated the person handling our case was on vacation. He sent her an email and CC to *******************. He closed by saying Brandsmart would contact us the following week. We explained we would not be home but would contact Brandsmart on our return home. July 23, 2024 my husband called ****. He was on vacation. On July 26, 2024 called ***************** ************, and was told their policy does not cover the damage. They were told we spoke to the floor manager and they told us to call back and see if they will send out a seamstress. He called **** on July 29, 2024 and was told he was on 2 days off until July 31, 2024. On August 1, 2024, **** was called. He was currently driving to work and would speak with his manager and get back to us.

  The items I ordered (see documentation) were not received and the order was cancelled. The charge of $130.78 has not been removed from my credit card account at *************** Therefore I am being billed for merchandise that was not delivered. To prevent ongoing charges, I opted to close the account and pay a reduced amount monthly until the balance is paid off. I should only have to pay for the transactions that were completed.

  On 06/29/2024 I bought a kitchen package (6)appliances.They had a promotion according to the flyer of $700.00 rebate for Brandsmart and $400.00 rebate for Samsung.I sent all the pertinent information to both and I have not received any positive results to date. 07/29/23024.I also let it be know that the seller marked me with 6 items but only 4 were rated for the price.It seems to me that I was deceived both in the Store and also by Samsung.I would like to resolve this problem in the most legal way possible.I await a response to it.

  This complaint is about a mini split unit I bought April 24th, 2022.Mini Split A/C unit with extended warranty package Well, here starts the problems, when I requested service for my A/C unit (Friedrich *************** They offered me the visit of a technician of a third party company name Team Alpha USA for Friday July 19th but they never showed up so I called them and they said that they don't service the mini split units. I didn't go to work waiting for the technician so I missed my day of work for nothing.After that I called again to the warranty company GUARDMAN and apologize and they said that they would reschedule the visit for the upcoming Monday (6 hours on the phone trying to get help), So after I hang up with ********, I call that company name ************* of America to ask them if they would take care of the A/C unit before the appointment was set and they said that they don't service A/C mini split units, so I called GUARDMAN again (2 more hours on the phone) asking for an explanation but the only answer I received was that they were going to escalate the call and I had to wait for at least 2 more days for them to get a technician.After those calls I decided to go to the store Brandsmart USA to ask for a solution because they sold me the unit and the extended warranty package but the only answer I received was "keep waiting for Guardman to call you cause we have nothing to do with it"when I went to the store Brandsmart I talk to a lady introducing herself as appliances manager named ***************************** but she refused to help me even though I explained her the case, she only said "keep waiting for that company to give a solution because there is nothing we can do"I told her that Brandsmart is good to collect my money but really bad to honor their contracts and even worst to protect their customer

  I have called Brandsmart USA twice to repair the power Sofa Catna 64581-128319 in the receipt attached , because of the mechanism failed,and the leather discoloration . They said their warranty doesnt cover any of these and that they will send the warranty booklet, which they make you sign saying was received. I was told by salesperson the warranty covered EVERYTHING, specifically the up/down mechanism, which is what can go bad, what else would the warranty be for ? Looking for repair or replacement, if not our money back. Had been a customer for decades, cant believe they do this .

  I am rejecting this response because: 

  I tried to contact ****************, but was never available. I spoke to customer service agents at ********************** and now they accepted the service call. Another company, SAW enterprises was supposed to call and they did a few days later, made an appointment for August 13th. Then Brandsmart called, a lady who now said my service wasnt approved because I mentioned also discoloration, I ***lied that their salesman had told me EVERYTHING WAS INCLUDED, Brandsmart makes you sign admitting they gave you the warranty contract,but they never do, my experience with other fridges and stoves I bought from them. I mentioned the mechanisms was bad and twisted, she ***eated the same, said I will send you the warranty and youll get the call for service and hanged up. Saw enterprises was supposed to call by Friday to verify appointment time,nobody called, so I called them ************ Saturday morning at 9:43am, the *** said I wasnt called because wasnt scheduled and they will call next week. At 12:29pm a service tech, **** ? Called to say was coming to service the unit, I wasnt home, I asked if he could make it a bit later, he said couldnt, too busy because they cut another service tech route. Its been months and in the end, they will probably invent an excuse not to service or ***lace it. Since the time they denied coverage, STILL WAITING for the warranty contract. Check with other customers about this, their salesmen lie ,say everything is included then backtrack when you call.

  Sofa and Loveseat and warranty which I was told covered everything including damage made by my animal. I was told that in the event of this happening they would replace it. I spoke to customer service and they advised me to reach out to corporate, and when i tried to file a complaint it took me to a social media platform then basically wouldn't accept my complaint and complete run around.

  Good evening, Me and my husband bought all the appliances for the house we just moved in from Brandsmart. We bought them in May 20th. They said we would be receiving it end of June/ beginning of July. Today, we received a message saying our delivery had been scheduled for tomorrow, and then they called us saying that it was a mistake and we will be receiving it middle of August!! The thing is we are remodeling the kitchen and the price of installation was already included and the kitchen company is just waiting for it to finish the kitchen. Also, we've being spending a lot of money every day ordering food because the appliances that they are postponing the deliver are the cooktop and the oven and microwave (The other ones were delivered already). I cannot be 3 months without cooking. When you go to buy something, they give you an estimate that not correspond with the truth, so they get the payments and the customer stays waiting for whenever they are actually able to deliver it. I just want/need to receive my purchase as soon as possible. Thank you.

  Well, they didnt say anything different. As I said, we bought the appliances back in March and we were told we would been receiving it around May/June, and now it has been postponed for the 2nd time for middle of August. We are willing to wait because all the other options they gave us wont arrive in a month (thats what they say), and if they postpone , it will be a longer wait than for the ones we picked. So, I guess it didnt help anyways. Thank you.
