Kmart review: student desk 31

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I ordered a student desk online on May 9th. I was told delivery will take 2 weeks. After 2 weeks I received an email stating: "We appreciate your business and we are sorry we did not meet your needs. We have credited your account..." I was confused because I was still expecting the desk. I contacted customer service and they said the UPS damaged the desk and had to return it to Kmart. They added that if I still wanted to purchase the desk I had to complete the order online AGAIN.

So I ordered the student desk online again on May 30th. I was told delivery will take 2 weeks. A little prior to 2 week delivery date I contacted customer service to verify the order. They said that UPS could not deliver because my address could not be verified, so they had to return it to Kmart. I used the same previous address (as on my online Kmart account). Furthermore, they told me that if I still wanted to purchase the desk I had to complete the order online AGAIN, which would take 2 weeks. I requested express instead of waiting 2 additional weeks for ground. Since express was $100, they told me they cannot waive the shipping for express. I cancelled that order.

In summary, I had to wait almost 2 months for a non-existant desk that Kmart claims is somehow erred by the courier. I do not believe Kmart's information and am upset that they could not offer anything more than waiving my $21 ground shipping fee.

I made purchase online, was charged same day for it on debit card. I happen to look at bank account 2 days later was charged again. When called said they will research and contact me in 24-48hrs, they never did. I called them again after finding yet another charge on bank statement for same items. This time was told I needed to seed a copy of my bank statement to prove it. Once did this said it would take 5-7 days for someone to contact my by email. This is ridiculous. Just poor customer service! Never shopping online there again.

Mgr Lydia in the Salinas CA store is very unprofessional. Showed no effort to assist me beyond a no. I left the store then returned for her name when I overheard her complaining. I was 1 day over the 45 day mark for a $6.99 shirt. I requested a store credit or an exhange and was denied. Mgr. said call customer service may be they will help you."

On March 18, 2018 I arrived at 7:40pm at Kmart at 7101 Roosevelt blvd Philadelphia, pa and they were locking the door when the sign on the door said 8pm. They were completely rude and didn't give any explanation. It was such an inconvenience and a waste of gas. I will not be back to this location anymore.

5 Kmart staff at Mackay check outs and only self serve available. Pathetic customer service Kmart. You're paying all those wages yet I, as the customer, have to do the work your staff should do. Most ridiculous business model for registers, employ 5 staff but customers do the work!

I will never purchase anything for home or work from kmart again. Reason: tried to return a product day 33 for $22.00 and was informed no return allowed. No store credit. Nothing. It is on the receipt. Well Kmart you lost thousands. I understand policy but really? 60 to 90 days and maximum refund limits is more customer base protocol.

I'm complaining about the Kmart in my area on E Third Street Williamsport Pa 17701.. The employees in that store are so ignorant, I can't believe it. The managers are even more rude. I had a complaint so I called the manager and she hung up on me instantly. I'm so sick of this Kmart store. I will no longer be shopping KMart.

On the Kmart website this is listed under holographic glitter. For one this is not glitter. For two this product is not holographic. This is false advertisement

So I was told today that cashiers are getting wrote up if they have too many customers use their rewards points. Because they think cashiers are telling customers to check their rewards card points. Seriously? They used to get in trouble for not getting enough new rewards members in a day. Kmart does not want you to redeem your rewards points.

She was very rude and she was just throwing my items on the table. She didn't even asked me for my points rewards. She gave a lot of dirty looks and she answered rudley to my questions about some offers. She needed assistance from another employee but she gave me a lot of dirty looks and she looked like she didn't wanted to do her job.

What kind if company let's their employees gamble while they are working? I shop at the Kmart in barboursville wv alot. I see one of the managers going in and out of a gambling parlor next to Kmart all day long. I would be concerned about this.

I went to enter this and it says I can't because it is more than 15 days. Why isn't this printed on the receipt! Plus 15 days isn't enough time.

I brought 6 new wine glasses from Kmart Stockland Caloundra on the 9th of November 2018.
I poured a glass of wine and found glass shafts in it, I was chewing it until I found it was glass shafts.
I thought nothing of it, until today 16 of November again I poured a glas of wine and I found it again. This time I took a pic of it to prove it.

I purchased a double bed doona cover and as it said double size I trusted the packaging

I washed the cover before use then found out when I went to use it that it is a queen size and too big for my doona

Very disappointed as I now have no use for it as the other bed takes king size

Complete waste of money that I really can’t afford to lose

I bought this as I’ve been saving up for it for a long time, and I was excited to see it was the last one on the shelf so I bought it. Got home to try it now and it’s missing the hair straightener attachment.
