I worked for Kmart for 33 years and after a serious accident where I was forced to retire, I applied for my pension. I have received 2 sets of paperwork at 2 separate addresses, showing incomplete information. I sent the final completed copies in mid-September and called again in October to verify that my pension was being processed. I was told that my pension check would be processed 45 days from the date of my last completed documents and the calculated date was for November 19, 2012. The person on the phone verified that everything was completed. I called on November 20, 2012 to ask why my check wasn't deposited and was given a new story. They claim that the final paperwork wasn't received until late October which would be a lie. After being persistent in asking for a date of when I would get my check, she finally said 'probably after January 1st because the last useless representative claims I didn't send the final paperwork until the late October date. I have had to delay payments for a hospital bill because of Kmart's lies to me and of course the hospital put me in the credit bureau because they don't believe me anymore. I asked to speak to someone hire up and was transferred reluctantly. I don't expect to get a call back. I have searched the Kmart/Sears website to see if I can send an email or make a call but there is no contact information. I tried their feedback option but it is only for merchandise or stores. I tried their 'help' but it only provides a blank page. Is there a chance that I am not going to get the pension I worked for? i defended Kmart for many years out of loyalty but not anymore and I will never shop there out of loyalty again either.

they have given me so many stories. one time they told me i would have it by 17th then they told me it was going out the 17th and another time they didn't see that a check had been issued yet. Also, another time they said they have no way to check and see if a check had been written. I don't know what to believe.
Rose80. Did they tell u it went out before and now they tell you they dont see it? Or did you call and they just told u they dont see it?
I'm hoping with you rose. Mine was due November 9th and I haven't gotten anything either. I hope we both get it soon. I'm really wanting to give my kids a nice Christmas. Plus pay some bills. It has been and extremely hard year.

Rose, when you called the new number they informed you your check is going out on the 17th? What date was your paperwork due back? (just being curious) Thx
Finally received our check today in NC!
my ex got hers today. we are in pa and live a couple miles away. Mine not here. Kinda worried now:)
Mine was due the ninth and still didn't get one. Apparently one of the papers I sent in I didn't date. So they sent it back and I mailed it right back and they had it completed by my November 9th due date. But because of that they said I will get mine in the last batch..whenever that is.
hey did have sign for the check, , , , , I live by Chicago NO CHECK :(
if anyone near chicago gets theirs, please post. thanks
My husband was with Kmart and he received his check yesterday. We live near Gainesville, Florida. A friend also received theirs, and they are a Sears retiree. Best wishes everyone!

Thank you mminnc
My wife got her check today. It was dated Dec 11th and is written off State Street Bank and Trust Boston, MA. Thanks so much for the people who posted on this site. It was very informative while waiting and trying to find answers. May everyone get there check in time and have a very Merry Christmas. God Bless you all.
If someone doesn't mind. I was wondering what bank the checks were written off as I don't have an account right now and was hoping it was a bank that we might have a branch here. I don't want to pay a huge fee at a check cashing place.
So glad people are getting their checks. For those that received, do you know when it was mailed? Just curious. Thanks
I'm so happy to see that people are starting to receive their checks! Hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!
Just called the number listed above and my check was mailed on the 11th and they were able to give me the exact amount! He did say 8-10 business days, but I'm hoping that it is sooner! My paperwork was due the 16th, for those of you with the same dates! Merry Christmas!
Received my check today, postmarked the 12th from Florida
