      BrandsMart representatives showed up at our home to (re)deliver and install a refrigerator we purchased. When my wife asked who was knocking at the door, the man yelled, we got a delivery, neglecting to announce who he was and what he was delivering; she called me to the door, and I let the man in.Representative #1 came in and we showed him to the install site; we asked if they were taking the old refrigerator and he said no, were not taking that. we told him that we paid for haul away; he asked how much, demanded to see a receipt; I showed him the receipt and he said, I cant read this, my glasses are in the truck.He began to remove from the wall, the brand-new water line purchased with and for the new refrigerator; I asked why, and he ignored my question thrice. I asked if he had a waterline to replace the one he was removing - he said that he did not (he neglected to tell us that he had new waterlines in his truck specifically for refrigerator installs).I stepped to my wife and said maybe we have the wrong installers and should call the office to get someone else out. Thats when stood up, looked at me and said look ************, what the f*** you gonna do? Perhaps the litany of questions and confusion from me, was something that challenged him emotionally and or professionally. Also, We didnt notify police initially because we were afraid and wanted to remove the threat from our house (his volatility left us uncertain and afraid of what he may have done).We were confused and startled - deathly afraid for the safety and sanctity or our home BrandsMart is responsible for this discomfort and fear (at our own resident); no customer should ever be made to feel this way or suffer the atrocious lack of service and abuse of customer ***************************** apologized but maintained partnership with errant representatives. As we discontinue our relationship with BrandsMart, we will continue to advocate for the safety, service we all deserve.

      On November 5, 2024 I purchased a brand new ****** Stove for $831.57 from Brandsmart. When the gas range was delivered the installers claimed they could not install the stove because the gas pipe in my home wasn't secure because it moved slightly, even though they installed the Samsung gas range I purchased from the same location on 07/20/2020 for $599.88 before it stop working. The delivery guys left the stove in the box and said I would have to contact Brand Smart to reschedule the installation. Because of this I hired a local appliance installer to install the gas range. While installing the stove he pointed out several dents and scratches on the stove. I contacted Brandsmart several times to try and resolve the issue but was hung up on by customer service. I was told the store manager, ******* would return my phone call. I have yet to receive a phone call.

      On December 26, 2024, A claim was file against the extended warranty sold by Brandsmart to service the washing machine that stopped working. Brandsmart came out on December 30th open the washing machine and determined that they need to replaced the washing machine computer and we had to wait for the part. On January 9th we received a call that service was scheduled for January 10th. no one showed up and they lied to us stating they they were there and we answer the door. I called to check on the status and was informed the service could only be scheduled when the parts were check in. I called again on Jan. 20th to find out the status and I was informed we were on the scheduled for the 22. on the 22 no one show again, Called back and I was told manager will call me back but never did. I called Brandsmart 10 AM and at 12:44 PM ***** told me the manager was going to call me, but none of them did. ( Maggy, Yovani, nor **** ) were avaible to face me. Runing a company with no suervisor when it has three people that are in charge. A very poorly managed company. This is for my mother in law's house. She is an 82 years old lady that has been extremely ill lately.

      This is my deep dissatisfaction w/ the experience Ive had following my recent purchase of a sofa, valued at approx. $1709.60, along w/ extended ins. coverage for damage. I purchased the sofa on 11/30/24, & was told to take it myself due to limited stock, w/ the understanding that I might not be able to secure the sofa if I delayed the pickup.Upon unboxing, I discovered a significant gash in the sofa. I immediately called the ins. **** who informed me since the damage occurred within 30 days, the store would need to handle the issue. I initially reached out to cust. service & was treated dismissively, as if my concerns were unimportant. I repeatedly called, trying to speak w/ someone who could help. Eventually, I was able to contact the sales asso., who instructed me to call again the next day & speak w/ ***, the mgr. However, I continued to receive a runaround w/ no clear resolution.After multiple unsuccessful attempts to resolve this over the phone, I went in person, only to find that *** was not available. I then spoke with ******** at the cust. serv desk, who asked me to email photos of the damage, which I did immediately. After a couple of days, I got a call requesting more photos, which I promptly sent. However, I was then left without any further communication.Finally, I received an email from ******** stating that the best offer they could offer was a 10% as a courtesy. This solution is wholly inadequate given that the sofa has visible ********** bought an ins. specifically to cover such issues. The 10% does not come close to the damage or the dissatisfaction I am feeling.Given the lack of cust. service, the failure of the ins. to cover the damage, & the overall poor handling of this, I am extremely disappointed w/ both the product & the service I have received. I will not be recommending BRANDSMART anyone, & I will not be making future purchases at all.I request a full resolution to this matter, whether that be a proper replacement or a full refund.

      Bought TV from Brandsmart USA four years ago bought a five year extended warranty in the fourth year the television burned out Technician came to see the problem try to order the parts. The parts are not available any longer the warranty company that services Brandsmart has delayed and tried to avoid rectifying the situation. They keep escalating the case every two or three days multiple times instead of refunding the amount crediting the amount to purchase another television under their warranty. They are trying to delay acknowledging problem when in fact it is the main motherboard that they are trying to buy which is no longer available from ******* or any other authorized dealer to fix the tv as it has been discontinued and is on permanent back order with no ETA for arrival whick means it is discontinued Brandsmart USA is notstanding up to his warranty with the company that services them. They should be sued for fraud for trying to delay and not taking care of situation properly. I am asking the BBB to step in Here. They work with my protection 360. This is the name of their warranty. Nobody is doing nothing they are giving the runaround every person that answers and every supervisor that is forwarded to says to wait more days and keep wait more days and not resolve the situation. I dont understand how anybody can buy any warranty from them in the future if this is the false tactic, theyre using.

      Hi,I made a purchase on 12/30/24 of a washer and the washer was delivered and installed to the wall. However, the day of the purchase, they sold and charge me a Delivery combo to stack my dryer on top of the new washer. The delivery men said we did not order a staking kit. I told them that i did not know that was not part of the order. I called the order and the salesperson said they did not sale me the part because the store did not have it in stock and i said why did you charge me then for stacking the appliance.The salesperson advise to purchase the piece on my own and i did and advised her i had the piece. She said once i had it, i called the store and the supervisor will create a new ticket to finish the job. I have called on 1-4-25 at least 6 time to follow up on the matter, they put me on hold and then hang up the call. This is ridiculous. I need the situation resolve, i have had the washer and dryer both in the middle on the hallway of my house since the delivery.Worse customer service.

      I am filing a complaint against BrandsMart due to their unethical practices and failure to resolve an issue with a faulty couch I purchased from them.When I bought the couch, I was forced to purchase an insurance policy because I was told that, as a floor model, it would not last without it. This was not presented as an option but as a requirement. Shortly after, the couch stopped working, and I began reaching out to BrandsMart for assistance. After months of calls, they finally sent a technician who confirmed the issue and said a part needed to be ********** has now been several more months, and despite numerous follow-ups, nothing has been resolved. I have been left with no choice but to purchase another couch because BrandsMart has failed to honor their commitments under the insurance plan.This situation feels like a scam. I was forced to buy insurance for a product they admitted was unreliable, only to have them fail to provide the service I paid for. I am requesting a full refund for both the couch and the insurance, as their actions are completely unacceptable.Thank you for your assistance in resolving this matter.

      I called to request a couch repair. You called to schedule an appointment, which u attended. I called again to inquire about the third-party company handling the repair. They keep informing me that theyre waiting for a part, so Im left with no choice but to either request a refund or replace the couch. Its been months, and I shouldnt have to live without a couch for so long because you cant fix it. You were able to contact me easily, and Im the one requesting the repair. Why wouldnt I pick up my phone and come here to file a complaint? Youre insulting my intelligence. I need my money back immediately, and Ill file a complaint against your business because this is a recurring issue where your company refuses to provide the service that was paid for.
      Sincerely,
