  On 10/8/2022 I submitted an order for some **** shoes. Order number **********. I had $45 in kohls cash so I was excited to only pay $16.15. They shipped on 10/9/22 with expected delivery between 10/13/22-10/17/22. The last scan on this shipment was made from *** on 10/14/22 at ******* ** location. I called *** on 10/18/22 and they advised that the package was considered lost because it had not been scanned in 4 days. I called kohls customer service and they told me there was nothing they could do. I spoke to a manager ******** who said I needed to wait until 10/24/22 for anything to be done regardless of *** saying it was lost. I have never experienced such lack of customer service before. I called again on 10/19/22 hopeful to get someone who had some customer service, no **** luck. I spoke to ****** and manger bleach they stated nothing could be done. I have never had such a bad experience with kohls but it seems from the other posts Im reading that this is the new norm for kohls. I think it may be time to close my kohls charge account and shop elsewhere, I can not give money to a place that doesnt care about their consumer. If *** is saying the pacakage is lost and it is still showing in their possession then guess what?! ITS LOST AND IM NOT GOING TO RECEIVE IT. I would like my money and the kohls cash I used back. I can not believe I am having to leave such a horrible experience on this forum since kohls use to be all about customers.

  I purchased a $100.00 Apple gift card in the store. I waited the 24hr activation time. When I tried to redeem the card, I was told it was an invalid code. I contacted Apple. I was on the phone 2hrs with them and they told me it wasnt their problem and to go back to the store. Kohls informed me it wasnt their problem and to go back to Apple. I contacted Kohls charge services to dispute the charge and they told me I couldnt dispute it and to go back to the store! All I want is a refund or replacement but all I keep getting is the run around.

  I placed 2 orders on 9/24/22 and one order on 9/25/22 at kohls.com, the three email confirmations which I received related to those three orders show that I would receive kohls cash for $520+$370+$140=$ ****. On 9/25 the night before I went to bed, the total amount of $**** applied to my account, but on the 9/26 the morning when I checked my account again, the $ **** kohls cash disappeared, so I called kohls customer service right away to find out what was going on. The lady told me the kohls cash disappearance were caused by technical problems because they updated the system on the weekend and she told me to wait until Thursday the 29th that the **** cash should be back to my account. I waited until 30th the Friday and received all the products which I ordered but still didnt see the kohls cash applied back, so I made the send time call for the same issue, the man told me he would have to send a email to other team and let me wait for them to contact me, but wouldnt give me other teams contact information. I waited until 10/3 and didnt receive any call to discuss the issue, so I made third time call and was told again just wait for ***** hours and the money would show on my account, but after 3 days on 10/6, the $**** kohls cash which related to those three orders still didnt apply to my account, so I made my fourth time call, this time again the supervisor told me she would need to hand this case to higher team and let me wait to be contacted, when I asked for higher teams contact information, she refused to provide it to me. Until now today the 10/14, I still didnt receive any call or email to discuss this issue. I tried total four attempt calls in 3 weeks just couldnt get a answer and solution. Pls help and thanks.

  We apologize for our customers disappointment. Our customer's orders are not eligible to earn ****** Cash or ****** Rewards coupons because our customer exceeded our quantity requirement policy to earn these coupons. ****** is a retailer, not a wholesaler, and does not honor ****** Cash coupons for purchases that are intended for resale to others.

  September 17 2022 I ordered some clothes for my grandchildren. I have ordered many clothing items from Kohls in the past with no problem. My order was supposed to be delivered every time I checked the status of the order it would say Label was created. I have never received the order and have called several times to no avail. I spent $71.56 on this order. Every time I called and talked with someone in foreign country I would get "call back in 3 days", call back in 7 days etc never getting my clothing. I talked to a person on line that said my refund would be there in 7 days then I got an email saying my refund would be there in 30 days none of which has happened yet. I just want my refund back and I will be done with Kohls. Every time I talk to anyone they give me another excuse. I really hope by filing this complaint you can get something solved this is not the way to run a business I would expect more from Kohls.
