Lowe's lg refrigerator lfxs30726s compressor out -

We returned from vacation and found our refrigerator not cooling and all food spoiled. It was purchased 9-13-15 as well as a 5 yr extended protection plan. We called Lowes Advantage for service. They could not arrange for service for 8 days. A service provider was sent (Sears's was sub-contracted by A&E) and tested the unit. The service tech stated the compressor was bad and needed to be replaced. She further stated that they were not an LE service rep and could not fix the compressor. She stated that she called Lowes and reported her findings. She told us too call Lowes back and tell them what she had said.

We called Lowes Advantage back as we were told to do. They stated they would pass the info to a supervisor and they would call us back in 48 hours.

We are now looking at nearly two weeks without a refrigerator and still no sign of repair. Why would you send a service provider that was authorized to service my refrigerator!

Service Request # provided by Lowes: [protected]
A&E Service rep. provided Service Order #: [protected]

I would like to hear from someone would can do something!

Lowe's Discrimination

Lowes manager notified all white customers about the clearance sale and did not notify the public. The day before the sale, the manager let a white customer purchase a $2800 refrigerator for $300. Blytheville store manager is so prejudice and unfair. I visit Lowes often as I am planning a kitchen and bathroom remodel. I will drive to the Jonesboro store or Home Depot from now on where everyone is treated fairly and with respect. I would have liked to have been notified of the clearance sales also. I am human too.

Lowe's Online website

Would you buy for a company that says the following in their website terms and conditions:

Lowe's cannot and does not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the Materials displayed on the Site, including, without limitation, prices, product images, specifications, dimensions, availability and services.

This sounds like Trump speak----you can not believe what you see.

Lowe's Installed wood fence

Lowes home improvement installed a wooden fence and after about two weeks I came home from out of state. The wooden fence had two wooden beams that were curved shaped and pulling the fence off center. They even agreed to remove my old post completely and they didn't. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WERE LOWES DID YOU WRONG MAKE VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE AND FACEBOOK. ALSO PUT A SIGN WARNING OTHERS IN THE OUTSIDE OF YOUR VEHICLE AND DRIVE AROUND THE STORE THAT DID YOU WRONG. The bozos at lowes have given me the run around.

Update by Lowes has no integrity
Sep 11, 2018 8:46 pm EDT

I have called Lowes 1800 number many times. And also spoken to the store manager "JJ" several times and no results only games. Y'all think I will do nothing? You think you can take advantage of me like I assume you have done to other people who keep quiet and take the loss? We will see, I AM ALREADY MAKING MY SIGNS AND I WILL DRIVE AROUND ALL THE LOWES IN SAN ANTONIO ON CITY STREETS NOT IN YOUR PROPERTY.

Lowe's The deplorable performance of their delivery service and customer care

Dear Mr. McDermott,
I was encouraged to see that Lowes recognizes the importance and value of having a Chief Customer Officer responsible "for creating experiences that best serve customers" as the press release announcing your appointment stated. You can imagine my deep dismay as my ongoing experience with your company demonstrates that such a statement could not be farther from the truth. The first clue was the option on your phone system that invites customers to provide feedback on their experience, but instead leads them to a recording denying them that opportunity and then disconnects the call.
Following the failure of your company and its sub contracted delivery service to fulfill the sales contract I have with Lowes within the time frame to which the delivery service committed, on the day that Lowes specified, I was subjected to the absurdity of the delivery company's representative attempting to redefine delivery as meaning something that doesn't involve my receiving my purchase. I then dealt with Katy in your customer relations department who promised to escalate the issue to the right person in your office.
I then called my local store where I'd made the purchase and finally got through to the manager, who asserted that the local dispatcher of the delivery company would call me within 20 minutes to arrange delivery. That never happened. But I did receive a follow up email from Billy B the next day. He committed to "escalating" the issue to the Senior Management from the store who'd be calling me within 24 hours. At noon today I responded to him saying that I not heard one word from anyone at Lowes.
I trust you find this as appalling as I do and understand how adversely it reflects on your brand's integrity and the effectiveness of your department.
I took off half a day from work on Friday to accommodate the window specified by your delivery service. I hired a laborer to help me carry the gas grill up the stairs to my deck because, as I was told quite sternly, that the delivery would only go as far as my front door. And when the specified delivery window had elapsed, I still had to pay him because of Lowes' failure to fulfill its obligation.
As of now, I have paid for the gas grill, the laborer, spoken to the store manager and to a customer service agent at your corporate office, exchanged an email with another there, but I have not heard from anyone at Lowes how you are going to make good on this. Don't you think it's past time for that? I look forward to your prompt and effective answer to try and restore some credibility to your department and your company.

Lowe's customer service representative tracey was rude

1. On September 6, I purchased five fans online: Order #[protected] and Order #[protected].
2. I received confirmation that provided the order details (purchase date, time, etc.).
3. At approximately, 9:30pm, I went to Lowes of Alexandria (6750 Richmond Highway . Alexandria, VA 22306). I visited the fan department upon entering the store and a gentleman asked if I needed help. I shared that I had purchased five fans online and just wanted to see the display model. The extremely polite gentleman volunteered information about the fans and answered all questions. He told me that the fans would be at the Customer Service Desk (CSD).
4. I went to the CSD and told Tracey that I had purchased fans online, provided the confirmation numbers and wanted to pick them up.
5. Tracey told me a) the fans were not at the CSD, and b) I had not purchased the fans that's why they were not at the CSD.
6. I asked her to explain how I could have confirmation numbers if I had not made the purchases.
7. Tracey turned around, walked away, took a seat, and started doing something. She said I can still hear you. I refused to talk. When she turned back around I repeated #6. Tracey told again a) that I had not made a purchase and b) I had to go get the fans bring them to the CSD and buy them.
8. I told her that the fans were already purchased and they were supposed to be here at the CSD according to previous online experiences. I also shared that the gentleman in the fan department agreed with me.
9. Tracey told again a) that I had not made a purchase and b) I had to go get the fans bring them to the CSD and buy them.
10. I asked her what I was supposed to put them in or on.
11. Tracey told me to walk back to the fan department and someone would figure it out.
12. I went to the fan department and the gentleman placed the fans in a shopping cart per my request. I told him my challenge about convincing Tracey I had purchased the fans. He escorted me to the CSD and witnessed Tracey telling me I had not purchased the fans.
13. I asked Tracey (and he witnessed) to allow me to tell her my truth and ask clear concise questions because I did not want to get charged twice. I spoke three sentences and Tracey cut me off. I stopped talking and when she finished I started sharing again. Tracey again cut me off a second time. I told her that I am not used to people cutting me off mid-sentence for it is not effective communication. Tracey yet again cut me off and I pointed out she was doing it yet again! I told her because she will not allow me to share my truth and then ask my question: I had no idea what she could possibly be answering.
14. I attempted to share again but Tracey immediately cut me off. I requested the store manager on duty.
15. I shared with the store manager all of the above. He apologized for Tracey's behavior and he too could not figure out why she did not believe I had purchased the fans. I shared with him that I am paying customer and I believe I have the right to ask questions - especially given the fact that a) I had used my credit card to complete the transaction online, b) received information from Lowes that the purchases had been made, c) a Lowes' employee is telling me repeatedly that I had not made the purchase, and d) I needed to bring the fans to CSD and buy them.
16. I then encouraged the store manager to play the store recorded tape to see Tracey turning her back to me, taking a seat to do work that had nothing to do with my transaction - while she was supposed to me helping me.
17. I shared with the store manager my truth: it is always polite for a person to finish talking before one cuts them off which Tracey did several times. I shared that if Tracey could not answer my questions certainly she could have requested the help of her collogues to explain the answers - just like I did.
18. My experience with Tracey was rude and lacked all professional decorum.

Lowe's Appliances & delivery

I apologize in advance that this will be a long but this has been an excessively long & frustrating experience that has not yet finished. This starts with a copy of an email I sent to Lowe's Customer Service that summarized my experiences.

I am contacting you in reference to a totally unacceptable incident that happened with your Havertown, Pennsylvania store. This concerns my son's purchases. His name is Joseph L. and the phone # associated with his account is xxx-xxx-xxxx. Lowe's card # xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. We were told so many lies by so many different people in that store it seems to me that lying to the customer must be corporate policy.

On August 16, 2018, Joe purchased a washer & dryer online. He immediately called the store to schedule delivery and installation. The delivery was scheduled for August 20. When the items were delivered, my son was not present but my (adult) daughter and another adult were present. The delivery people informed my daughter that the proper parts had not been included with the delivery to complete the installation. The delivery people placed the washer & dryer in the basement and left. Later that day, Joe contacted the store and spoke with a manger who informed him that everything had been included with the washer and dryer and he (the manager) was unsure of what the problem was. After several calls back and forth the manager assured Joe that the washer and dryer would be hooked up on August 26.

In the meantime, on August 17, Joe ordered a suite of kitchen appliances (fridge, dishwasher & gas range). Your website listed the fridge and range as being in stock at the Havertown store. Due to a mix up at the bank, the charge did not go through on Joe's card so Joe and I went to the Havertown store on August 18 and ordered the appliances. We were told by the sales associate that the fridge and range were in stock but the dishwasher was not. Delivery and installation was scheduled for August 26 because of the dishwasher. Joe paid for this order in cash.

On August 26 the range and dishwasher arrived. When we asked the delivery people about the fridge, we were told there was no fridge with the order. Joe immediately called the store. He was told by a sales associate that the fridge was not in stock yet but would be delivered within 7 to 10 days. The delivery people installed the washer, dryer and range as requested. They advised us that all the parts necessary for hook up of the washer and dryer were already with the washer and dryer, they were unsure as to why the previous delivery people could not do the hook up.

On August 27th I contacted the Havertown store and spoke with Eric (appliance manager). Eric reviewed the notes on the case and apologized for the issues I was having. He (Eric) stated that it appeared that Joe had requested that the fridge be delivered on September 4. This was absolutely false. After several calls back and forth, Eric advised me that our fridge was in the Bensalem store. Eric told me that he would have the fridge delivered to the Havertown store on Wednesday (August 29) and sent out to us on Friday, August 31. Eric assured me that if there was any problem with this either Joe or I would be contacted. Eric advised me that he was not working on Friday (August 31) but he would leave this in the hands of the other manager.

When we did not hear anything about the delivery time, I contacted the delivery manager (Julius) on the morning of August 31. Julius advised me that no fridge was received from the Bensalem store and there was no delivery scheduled for Joe. After some checking, Julius assured me that there was a fridge on the truck that they were currently unloading. Julius assured me it would be delivered on September 1. He also offered a discount on the fridge. Since Joe paid cash for the fridge he (Joe) would have to go back to the store to receive his money. Julius advised me that Joe should receive a call no later than 9pm on August 31 advising him of a delivery window for September 1.

No one called Joe or I by 9pm on August 31, so I called the Havertown store and spoke with Joe (manager). After explaining the issue AGAIN, Joe (manager) looked into the notes and made a few calls. Joe (manager) promised me that the fridge would be delivered on September 1 most probably in the afternoon. Joe (manager) advised me that someone would call either me or my son, Joe, with a better delivery window after the delivery truck was loaded in the am.

It should be noted that Eric, Julius and Joe (manager) were very polite to me when on the phone. It should also be noted that Eric, Julius and all the people my son, Joe, spoke with prior to that lied to us repeatedly. I am expecting to spend another day waiting for a fridge that will not be showing up. I am expecting to spend another day calling the Havertown store to be lied to again about this fridge. As a matter of fact, I might just die of shock if that fridge shows up on September 1.

What we had to go thru was absolutely ridiculous. All any of these people had to do was tell us the truth - that the fridge was not available yet. We could have then made a decision to either go elsewhere or purchase another appliance suite. Lying with this consistancy tells me that the problem is systemic. It was not just 1 person who lied to us, it was pretty much everyone we talked to from the washer/dryer delivery people, to the in store sales people (more than 1), to the appliance manager to the delivery manager. The total lack of communication was also unacceptable and should be addressed.

BTW, the fridge in question is Item # 708951 Model # LSXS26386D, LG 26.1-cu ft Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Ice Maker and Door within Door. This fridge is still listed for sale on your website. Maybe you should post a warning that delivery will take 2-3 weeks.

Sincerely,
-----------------

9/1/18 850AM: I called the Havertown store again since no one called us this morning. I spoke with Tyrell who told me he was looking at my fridge. He could not give me a rough delivery window (either morning or afternoon). He promised me that as soon as the truck was fully loaded he would call dispatch and have them call with a delivery window. Not holding my breath waiting for that to happen.
-----------------

9/1/18 1234PM: Never received a call so still have no idea when this fridge is supposed to show up, if ever. I did get an email response from Lowes:

"Good Afternoon Mary,

Thank you for contacting Lowe's Customer Care. I appreciate the opportunity to assist you.

I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused for you and your son. I have addressed this matter with senior store management at the Lowe's of Havertown, PA and you can expect a follow up from store management within the next 24 hours.

If you need additional assistance, please reply to this email and I will be happy to assist you.

Thank you,

Brittany H.
Lowe's Customer Care"
-----------------

9/1/18 143PM: Received a call from Frank, General manager of Havertown Lowe's. The total call was almost 20 minutes. After spending some time trying to convince me that no one lied to me. He did apologize for the lack of communication. Frank then told me that Bensalem never sent the fridge. (He never answered when I asked why Eric did not follow up). He could not explain why the initial sales associate told us the fridge was in stock. He could not explain why no one ever called us to explain issues with the order. His explanation for the the whole washer/dryer debacle was that they use a 3rd party delivery company. He assured me the fridge was being delivered today but since it was an add on item he could not give me a delivery window. This was totally unacceptable to me so he called the dispatch manager (Dave). While everyone knew the fridge was on the truck no one knew which truck. Frank wound up calling Julius (delivery manager). They figured out which truck it was on but then found out Julius never sent over some paperwork he was supposed to. Now comes the hard part, Dave was going to attempt to reach the truck driver to get a rough ETA and ask that the truck driver call us 30 minutes before the delivery. Frank was not confident this could be accomplished but told me he would call me back in about an hour or so.
-----------------

9/1/18 407PM: Frank just called. Dave has called the delivery driver twice but the driver has not returned his call. Dave did leave messages that the driver should call us when they are 30 minutes away but, unless the driver calls Dave back, we have no way of knowing if he got the message. Bottom line for me is that I will have to sit here until it shows up. I have been here since about 815AM and they could deliver as late as 9PM.
On a side note, I found out that Lowe's discourages customers from tipping drivers and drivers are told they should not accept tips. My apologies to our previous delivery drivers since I let slip I tipped you guys.
-----------------

9/1/18 945PM: When the fridge did not arrive by about 855pm and we had not heard anything, I called the Havertown Lowe's again. This time I talked with Howard (manager). After putting me on hold for 15 minutes (not an exaggeration), Howard asked me for a brief review of what was going on because he could not see a delivery for us anywhere in his system. I gave him a brief review and he said he would look into it and call me back.
When I did not hear back from Howard by 930PM I decided to head home (a 10 minute drive). On the way home I decided to call Howard. It was 939PM and I am pretty sure they close at 10PM. However, the message I got when I called was that the store was now closed and would reopen at 7AM.
-----------------

9/1/18 1002PM: I sent Brittany an email with all the updates since my last email to her and included the following:

Unfortunately this situation has gone from bad to worse. Today I sat in that house from 815am to 930PM waiting for delivery drivers that never showed. Rather than rehash the story, I am just going to paste the updates I posted on my Facebook page to show you what has been going on. Two things need to happen immediately - 1. my fridge needs to be delivered to my house ASAP and 2. Someone needs to compensate my son for all this nonsense.

{UPDATES HERE}

NOTE: The time is now 1002PM and I have still not received a return call from Howard. Frank may try to play this all off as miscommunication but I have clearly been lied to on more than 1 occasion.
-----------------

9/1/18 1020PM: Howard just called me. This is what I emailed to Brittany:

It is 1017PM. Howard just called me back. He told me that my fridge went out for delivery today but obviously was not delivered. He also told me that the driver did not bring the truck back to the store. So now both the truck and my fridge are missing. Are you guys serious about this?

Lowe's Tile flooring

We had special order tile for our kitchen floor, the cost was crazy Ha, and three times it was broken. On the actual day the installer showed up toLay the tile, is when the third time I've broken tile was noticed everyone was upset. When you try to call customer service and the flooring department it is forever on hold. We have used Lowe's for window installation and it was a nightmare. But we decided to give them another try with the flooring. We will not use them again. Not at all. They are in adequate, unprofessional, no communication and they do not deliver appropriate goods while they still have our money we have nothing to show for

Lowe's Washing machine

We bought a returned/reduced washing machine from Lowe's Home Improvement in Victoria, Texas on 08/26/2018. We were desperately needing a washing machine today and this was the only day available to shop for a washer and we live 40 miles from this store however it is one of the closest store open on Sunday. My husband and I went in intending to buy a new washing machine but my husband found the returned/reduced washer. We spoke with the sales person and he assured us that this washing machine was in good working order and it had been throughly checked out by your store techs and was in good working condition. We unfortunately believed him. We brought the machine home and connected it correctly. We put our soap and clothes in it and set the dials correctly and started it, it did fill with water like it should however it would never start washing. We let it sit for 2 1/2hours to see if it would eventually start washing and it didn't. We had to wring out the clothes by hand that were in the washer and then manually using pails to empty the water so as we could return it to Lowe's. We drove back to Victoria and returned it to Lowe's and I also spoke with the manager named Kelly and informed her of all our complaints, no comment from Kelly, however we did buy another washer from your store because we needed one today and had no choice. However your store should not be selling products that are not in working condition. We were very dissatisfied and very inconvenienced as we drove a total of 160 miles and 80 of those miles were unnecessary if the machine had been in good working condition and if your employees had actually checked it out it should never have been put out on floor for sale because apparently it was not in good working condition and that is called deceiving the customer and very unethical.

Lowe's lg appliance rebate program

In April of 2018, I was in search of a washer/dryer. I looked at many stores and finally settled on a pair at Lowes not due to overall cost, but due to the rebate program that LG was having at the time. I purchased and of course they had none in stock and would have to order and deliver. I was assured by the appliance folks at Lowes that my purchase was eligible for the rebate. I returned home and printed off the rebate forms and once I read them it said to wait to submit the rebate forms until I had received my appliances. I did not receive my appliances until after the appliance rebate deadline date. I have wondered if this was a planned delay by Lowes. Once the appliances were received, I went ahead and tried to submit my rebate form online and it would not accept my form. I called Lowes in Rapid City SD and they assured me that if I came into the store they could override the submittal process and submit the form. I drove the 50 miles and met with the appliance department and they helped me submit my rebate form. In mid June, the rebate center sent a letter asking for additional information so I sent in the requested information. Well in early August I still had not received my $400 rebate for the appliance pair that I bought. I called the number on the rebate form to check status of my rebate and the automated message stated that my refund had been sent on 5/21. This date is approximately three weeks prior to the rebate center requesting additional information. STRANGE! I finally found a number after contacting Lowes and talking to several people where I could check on my rebate. It was Lowes rebate center and I actually got to talk with a person even though he was very difficult to understand. I was told by the rebate center is that I did not qualify for the rebate. REALLY? I had the rebate forms, the model numbers of my appliances were listed on the rebate forms, the Lowes appliance people assisted with overriding the rebate system and helped me submit my forms, the automated message from the rebate center stated my rebate had been mailed, additional information was requested, and then I do not qualify? What a scam. I asked the rebate center representative to talk to his supervisor and he said there was no supervisor. I then hung up and called Lowes in Rapid City. I asked to talk to the store manager. I was told he was in a meeting. I have called on three seperate ocassions and have been put on hold and then am told he is in meetings he is not working. I only wish I would have purchased my appliances somewhere else. Lowes has lost my business and everyone I know when they are looking for appliances, I tell them to stay clear of Lowes. This is a total scam by Lowes and their partner LG.

Lowe's garage doors

Ordered garage doors from Lowes and they were delivered on July 30th . I was going to do self install, but decided to have them install. I called Lowes and they said they would have a company come out and measure . The company came on Aug 10th and measured. Lowes charged me 35.00 for this. I called the garage door company today, 8/20/18 and they stated that they had only had an order to measure and nothing on install. They were going to contact Lowes in Benton Harbor, MI and get back to me. If I don't get answers soon, will contact Attorney General and file complaint there. This is not the first time I have delays with Lowes.

Lowe's refusal to repair terrible installation of new roof

We contracted with Lowe's Home Improvement to replace a roof on my deceased mother-in-law's house in Binghamton. We paid Lowe's for the work. They installed the wrong color shingles on the house. The work was terrible with numerous problems. We have tried since April 2018 to have Lowe's correct the problems. The store salesman in Binghamton came to the site and in my wife's presence said the work was terrible. Since then he has refused to return phone calls. We contacted the store manager and he referred us to the Lowe's corporate person who was responsible. After agreeing to make repairs using a new contractor, she asked the one who did the bad installation to make repairs. Since that conversation she has refused to return phone calls or emails. The old contractor supposedly made repairs, but pictures that we obtained today indicate that the same problems exist. We have been in contact with a Lowe's corporate representative. He has promised action in phone calls over the past three weeks, but nothing has been done. We need help to get Lowe's to fulfill the terms of the contract.
We have sent pictures to Lowe's consumer care at corporate headquarters and they have done nothing but talk. They refuse to answer our questions and our phone conversations cover the same complaint every time without any concrete progress.
Subsequently, we have had a home inspector look at the roof and he found numerous problems and shoddy workmanship on the roof on the backside of the house which is difficult to see from the ground.

Lowe's avoid lowe's installations

Had new windows installed, then discovered they howl like banshees when the winds are high and from the northwest or west. After the clueless installer attempted to correct with sloppy caulking, an Atrium rep came by and installed "chimney stops, " which reduced, but did not eliminate, the whistling noise. At the time, he said there were other things he could try, but after calling Lowe's a month after his visit when the windows howled again, received a call back stating that the windows were installed properly, it's our vinyl siding making the noise, and Lowe's was closing the file. Period. Wrote to the Lowe's CEO and store manager, but and the response was the same: Not our problem. We've spent tens of thousands with Lowe's over the years, but not a penny more, ever. Luckily, there are options in town all our future home needs.

Lowe's unethical behaviour

This company racially profiles customers of color. From the moment I walked into this location I was followed. In aisle 5 was searching for grout cleaner. After a couple of minutes a Lowe's associate came into the aisle pretending to look for something. I left the location with two bottles of cleaning product. I was looking for a utility knife which was at the back of the store. As I walked past the aisles I noticed and associate from the carpet department watching me. As I turned down a different aisle I noticed two Lowes associates watching me from across the aisle. As I stood in the check out line I noticed two Lowe's associates pretending to have a conversation at the entryway but I knew they were watching me. Next time this happens I am going to talk to the manager. This is ridiculous. Someone is going to lose their job.

Lowe's cooktop electric 30 inch with downdraft

I paid for a Cooktop electric 30 inch with downdraft from the 7500 Broken Branch Lane Manassas, VA 20109 store, [protected] on July 8 2018. I was told it would be installed before 24 July 2018 by the Lowe's appliance salesman, Coleman.

On August 1, I called the Lowe's service and delivery number and was told the installer would contact me within 2 days.

On August 8, I called Lowe's service and delivery number again and got 2 very nasty representatives, Dimitria (sp?) and Ruth. Dimitria talked over me and started raising her voice, patronizing and being condescending to me, and told me to wait like everyone else, then told me again, the installer will call me in 2 days, then hung up on me. I then called the Manassas, VA store and spoke to the Manager, Daniel. He was annoyed at this and told me this was not his department, but will speak to the service and delivery department. He then spoke over me and said sorry really loudly and told me to wait 2 days for the installer to call me, and the installer will let me know when he is available to fit me in his schedule to install the cooktop electric with downdraft - I would have to be home within a 4 hour time slot.

This is the worst customer service - I feel no one at Lowe's seems to care about customers, they just take the customer's money and don't care that the customer received the product or not, and are not concerned that customers don't get the product installed. Lowe's took and cashed my money, but I do not have what I paid for. It has been over 1 month since I have been able to cook dinner at home. I had to take friends and family out to dinner because I cannot cook on my existing cooktop because it is broken. I was told by the salesman at the Manassas store, Coleman, that my cooktop has been sitting at the store waiting for the installer to pick it up since July 24!

I shouldn't have to beg to get what I paid for and installed, should I? What do I have to do to get a product I paid for installed?

Please do whatever you have to do to fix this. I am totally disgusted with the treatment I was put through from the Lowe's service and delivery department as well at the Manassas store. I have been a long time customer of Lowe's and was shocked at the way I have been treated. Please contact me at [protected]@gmail.com and let me know that you are working on this.

Lowe's lack of employees/ new ceo incompetence

In Eugene Oregon, the last few times I went to Lowes I cant find anyone working in the departments, accept for gardening, flooring, paint and cabinets. They are either with a customer or on the phone or not there. I always see other customers trying to find help, but no employees are to be found. When I checked out I told the cashier I was irritated because I was unable to find anyone working in the store. She said many customers are complaining about this also. She said the new CEO just took over and cut part time employees hours to 16 hours a week, which is not enough to pay bills or survive on, so they all quit. I said, so Lowes must be hiring now, right? She said no, they aren't even trying to fill the vacant spots. She said there were only five or six people running the place. The new CEO is trying to save money and show false numbers of lager profits. So he gets rid of employees, piles more work on others and claims he's doing such a great job by showing larger profits, when in reality they are just paying out less money for salaries.

Lowe's store order

I am so very aggravated so annoyed and very upset. I came to your Lowe's Home Improvement store at 285 SW Ln, Cape Coral, FL 33914
I ordered storm shutter panels and headers I already pickup the storm shutter panels. I am still waiting for headers that I ordered June 10, 2018, this order was so to be delivered on July 9 I called Lowe's store in Cape Coral to see where my order was, when it would be delivered I was told it would be delivered on July 13 well it wasn't I call again then told it would be on July 16 it still wasn't delivered then told July 19, and 20th it still wasn't this is the most ridiculous thing I have ever dealt with. I am so tired of the run around. I have called toll free number and the store where I purchased this order. I was told that the vendor was ready to load it on the Lowe's truck but there was no room on the truck so they had to reset my delivery. I ended up going to Lowe's store on July 21, 2018 Saturday I talked to assistant manager Alexis who is worthless very annoying. I explained my whole situation to her she cuts me off and lies she tells me she is going to call the Vendor on that Monday July 23, 2018 and she would call me to let me know what the vendor told her well I called her because she never called the Vendor or me. I get a call back from Duncan from Lowes telling me he called the Vendor saying that my ordered would be delivered next week but he could not get an date on delivery guess what it is now August 3, 2018 no delivery. So I call again the toll free number I was told it would be delivered on Monday August 6th I told him how it is almost 2 months since I ordered the headers and I also mentioned that I want comp a gift card for all this aggravation I am so pissed off this is a joke I have never dealt with such idiotic nonsense. I do not like this run around aggravation I am so sorry I came to Lowe's and made this purchase. I do not like to be lied to. The assistant manager Alexis called me and told me she is sorry she was on vacation that is not true since I went in the store on July 21 and talked to her on the phone July 23. Now she tells me she is going to call the Vendor on Monday August 6th I told her I was told the delivery is suppose to come to Lowes on August 6th she said it shows. August 10 I finally got my order after two months of waiting for this. I want compensated for this aggravation, I was told I would receive a gift card and I have not received!

Lowe's Extended Appliance Warranty

I'm calling BS.

I bought a complete house full of appliances, nearly $10K worth, from Lowes in December of 2014 and took delivery in January of 2015. I bought the 'Extended' warranty plan on all 4 appliances for 3 years. On the jacket of the warranty and on their website, in plain english, it states:

"Major Appliance Protection Plans start the day you purchase them or date of delivery, whichever is later, and provide coverage for three or five years that goes above and beyond the manufacturer's warranty with our included benefits."

Basic math: Mfg. Warranty = 1 year + EXTENDED warranty of 3 years = 4 years.
Date of Purchase: Dec. 2014 + 4 years = Dec. 2018
Date of Delivery: Jan. 2015 + 4 years = Jan. 2019

Whichever date you use, my Samsung refrigerator, which has never had an issue, never used the warranty, should still be under warranty. When I called for service, they were adamant that the way to "interpret" the statement above is that
the 'included' benefits go 'above and beyond', but the time actually runs concurrently with the manufacturers warranty. At the very least, this is a very broad definition of the word 'extended', maybe it should be 'enhanced' or 'improved', but it certainly doesn't fit the common definition of 'extended'.

Lowe's has been horrible on follow up, horrendous with customer service and now they are screwing me out of my warranty with their 'interpretation' of plain english as defined by the fine print of their T&C's. Despicable.

On another note, stay away from Samsung appliances. I have had numerous issues with my dishwasher and washer/dryer combo, and now the fridge. Ugh!
