I purchased a washer online. I was charged for delivery, installation, and removal of old unit. The b******* came and were rude to my wife and condescending. Unaware she spoke Spanish, the two idiots were making comments how it is not their job to clean behind my units. Their job is to connect and go. They refused to give their names. I have the number for the delivery team, but they are not responding when I ask for their names. They first claimed they could not turn the water off. then they did and removed the pipe a there was water coming from the spicket, not the pipe and this b****** said my pipes were corroded and leaking. I have images and there is no water damage. The wear of the pipes are normal. They face timed their dispatcher and told them my wife had cups there to stop a heavy leak beforehand. That is a f****** lie if I ever heard one. It was from the mouth of the spicket. They left the old unit after I was charged and left the new unit in the driveway and then demanded it be placed somewhere. One guy called my wife a liar when she told me he said he was not going to connect it. I want this matter fixed. I will file a small claims suit if necessary if this is not rectified and this a****** of a company does not fix the leak. The leak happened after the b****** stripped the valve and claim it was already leaking. I have no moisture on my walls at all. They did a half-ass job and trying to blame me the homeowner. I demand a phone call asap or there will be h*** to pay. This company sent guys who after using their language to manipulate my wife and she announced she speaks Spanish, they tried to order me to speak Spanish over the phone. I have images and had a plumber come and turn the nozzles on and off. There is no issue. The customer service rep call me saying the pipes look corroded but she can send a link to a form for Lowe's to pay the plumbing. Why would they want to pay the plumbing if my pipes were leaking. These idiots have no customer service and try to demean women. I will not have it. Call me ASAP!Business Response

*July 10, 2023 *$5234.58 *Lowes was to supply a new front door including installation. *The door is warped and will not seal. The installer showed it to me after he installed it.*Lowes has been working on the problem for 4 months. We have talked with the store manager 7 times, asst. **** 9 times. We have talked to Lowes ******* Services over 10 times. We have 6 typed pages of all our ************************ all to no avail. They have gone between just replacing the door to replacing the whole job. We have furnished the manufacture everything they have requested. The manufacture has acknowledged the problem. Lowes has also acknowledged the problem. We have even had a scorpion in the house first time in 30 years. Every time we have a meeting they say they will call but never do. We requested a refund and were given two options. Keep the door we have now and get a refund of 50% and they will get a new door only or we get a full refund and we order a new door. This offer was conveyed to us after the store manager sent us to see a employee to give her more information. I asked the store manager if the girl she sent us to see could make any decisions to which she said no, I have the final say. The employee went down to see the manager and said she would call back in 2 hours. Much to our surprise we got a call back in 10minutes with the managers offer. The call came to our car and over the car speakers so all 3 of us heard the offer which the employee said was from the store manager. Yesterday 10/23/23 we had a meeting with the store manager and the asst. **** The asst **** came out first and said the manager never made such an offer. We had had a meeting in front of 6 people weeks earlier which I explained why I took that offer because it was months faster than ordering a new door. The manager never denied what I said. At yesterdays meeting the **** said she notified the district **** he'll call. If you need to see the 6 pages we would be glad to supply them to you.Business Response

On July 3rd 2023 I purchased kitchen cabinets with a newly opened Lowes credit account with a promotion of 0% APR for 24 months. Cabinets were delivered late August 2023 (2 months later) with tons of production issues. Literally ever cabinet door or draw was not aligned. despite given the exact measurements for my kitchen, the corner hidden cabinet had to be pulled 6" away from the wall otherwise we couldn't open it which ended up pushing the rest of the cabinets into my living room. After multiple attempts to get this resolved with no returned calls or emails from Lowes about our complaint, I finally stopped in. The Lowes agent submitted a change order for 5 cabinets, 1 draw and one glass door. It's now October 25th 2023 and we still have not received the ************* I look at my Lowes credit account and I'm being charged interest on an account I opened with a promotional 0%APR. I will never ever recommend Lowes for any home improvements. This has been nothing but a disaster from the very beginning.Business Response

On 6/15/20 I purchased a GE UltraFresh Washer GFW850SPNRS from Lowe's #**** in ********** **. I purchased the Protection Plan along with it for peace of mind. The washer worked great for about 2.5 years. Around 3/1/23 I started noticing a few drops on the floor in front of the washer. A few weeks went by and the puddle grew in size after running a wash cycle. I reached out to Lowes Protection Plan via the website & filed a claim. That company never showed up and closed the claim. The following week I filed another claim, that company took 2 months & 8 vacation days to finally replace a part that had no bearing on the leak whatsoever - thru constant no-show appointments, numerous 5 minute visits to "verify" part numbers & finally one 15 minute visit to replace a ring. It leaked in front of the ********** response was "you need to open another claim". This last company (the 5th service company overall) sounded promising - the tech spoke intelligently about the unit, told me what he felt the problem was. He ordered the part, showed up a week later to install & tested it for a minute to verify. However, the unit still leaks - and now it squeals horribly when it runs. The long & short of this is Lowe's does not stand behind their services - I've reached out via ************* numerous times. No one calls back, when I do get a response via email, it directs me back to where I started with filing a claim. This washer has been leaking for 8 months; there is no doubt long-term internal rust & damage. No amount of repairs will be able to fix what the actual issues are now. The amount of work I've missed to be available for "service appointments" - I could've purchased 2 more new Washers. It's deception, it's not ok ********************************* will not take any accountability for it. I've tried local stores, they direct me to Assurant who owns the insurance policy - but Lowe's sold it, so it's on them to verify who they collaborate with is holding to their standards.Business Response

We purchased a stand up freezer in April of 2022. After 2 months we started seeing ice build up inside. After calling the store and them telling me they couldn't help me, I called Kenmore-which is who it was made by. They told me they would start a case. 3 months went by-----crickets. I called back, they said they escalated my case and I didn't need to make payments until it was resolved. 3 more months.....nothing. I have a freezer I can't use, reports on my credit for non payment and I'm out money. Kenmore has all the pictures and information on file-good luck getting ahold of them.Business Response

I placed an order for fencing for $6400.00 with Lowes around 10 weeks ago. Part of the fencing was installed about 6 weeks ago. The installer was short a corner post and could not finish the project. He said that he would return the next day. He did not. I have called ************* and installation services numerous times over the last 6 weeks to get this resolved. Every time I call they lie to me and say that someone will reach out in two business days. I have not heard from anyone, at all, this entire time. I want my fence completed. I don't understand why they keep giving me the runaround. I simply need a corner post. At this point it's obvious that they aren't going to complete their contractual obligation to finish the installation. But they could at least send me the post so that I cam hire someone else to complete the work.Business Response
