Kmart Order number [protected]

Purchase made 8th Dec. courier please stated items shipped 12th Dec from Sydney to Wollongong. Attempted to contact couriers please for 3 days but kept being sent link to live chat, which had team busy chat ended message. Tried speaking to team at Kmart through live chat but Francis stated order had been prioritised and to wait a few days. When I tried to clarify timings, they didn’t respond. When I asked to speak to another member of staff, they stated to wait but never returned to conversation and left me waiting. I was just trying to clarify if Christmas presents would arrive prior to Christmas as expected by information given at time of purchase.

Desired outcome: Delivery to arrive prior to Christmas

Kmart - Return of item that stopped working

On September 7 I purchased a stick vacuum cleaner from the Bethlehem store. We used the self pay machine to pay for it, When we had completed the transaction a receipt popped out, & we grabbed that and left, driving back to Katikati where we live. Half way home my wife told me she had just realised that the receipt was not for our item. Two days ago it...

Kmart Phone system - reaching kmart store to query purchasing

Between the time 6.25pm and 6.30pm I called stores Chatswood Chase, Broadway, Lidcombe and no one would answer the phone. All stores are showing online and noted via the website and phone system to be open till 10pm.

Didn’t matter which store I called, which department I selected, there was no answer.

All I wanted to know was if an online product could be ordered instore for delivery to home as we want to use a Kmart branded gift card.

Why is it so hard?

Desired outcome: Give me a call so I can get an answer and service to my request.

Kmart Staff

On Tuesday 23rd May I rang Kmart Caloundra store to acquire. Pink corduroy shirt size 16. I was assured by female staff member was in stock and would hold it for pick up within 24 hours. As I live on the Gold Coast I asked my friend who resides on the Sunshine Coast to pick up for me. Staff member informed it would be at service desk under my name. When my friend went out of her way to get it was informed was not there. Very dissatisfied and very unprofessional from staff. Not happy. Please give staff lessons on how to answer a phone as well. Sometimes not even answering.

Desired outcome: Would like shirt

Kmart Horrible customers support

We were treated very poorly.

we called Kmart Nowra NSW store, if the item “Bamboo Shoe Cabinet” is in store (webpage print it was) we were told on the telephone by some lady, who’s interest was just quickly brush me off, NO we do not have this cabinet. So we purchased cabinet on line (We need it as a present). Later, we had some business in Nowra town and my wife stopped by at Kmart store - The one who I telephoned morning) an she find a plenty of "Bamboo Shoe Cabinet" in shop. I was really upset I asked to talk to manager, He could not explain why the Kmart person lied to us on the phone but , he offer solution, to purchase the Bamboo Shoe Cabinet in store, with assurance of no problem to later cancel previous order on line. So we did purchased cabinet in store. When I tried cancel order on line (first I listen repeatedly message on the line, haw friendly Kart support staff is), but the person who I talked on the phone somehow did not fit to this description. She refuse to cancel my order and hung up the telephone, when I ask to speak to manager! So I call back to Nowra store speak to the manager. He gave me telephone number to call. Again person I spoke to was far from friendly description. She offer me some REALLY BIZARRE arrangement. To wait when order is delivered and than send it back and than apply for refund. This was too much to take, and she obviously noticed I run of the patience. So at the end she promised refund, to be processes by her supervisor (Refund ref. number: [protected]. later around 7 PM, I received K mart email, my order is on the way in 3-4 days. WOW ? What to say ?

Goods returned by no refund. Call the Kmart customer service numbers no one answers and then it hangs up. Such a joke. Beware do not order from kmart marketplace if you might need to return the product.

Before escalating your case to upper refund team, can you confirm me if you checked your credit card statement ?

Tina (01:30:09 GMT) : I also promise to personally keep you updated on the status of your request in next 48-72 hours via email mcallisterflooring@yahoo.com, so you're never left unattended.
Visitor (01:31:14 GMT) : Okay they also told me for the inconvenience that I could order the items that I had on layaway that were wrongfully cancelled through you guys get free shipping and a $20 Credit Now I want to order the baseball item I had on layaway and they told me I could chat back through y'all and do it when I had the money for it
Tina (01:33:33 GMT) : Nicole, I have checked notes on your order and our agent offered free shipping and $20 refund and you will place order with Amount Due:$XXX.96. Is that correct?
Visitor (01:34:17 GMT) : No I changed it to just 1 item the baseball item
Tina (01:35:00 GMT) : Nicole, may I know what will be amount due on that order?
Visitor (01:36:04 GMT) : I'm not sure it's on sale for 39 dollars I believe and he said I would get 12.50 off with free shipping
Visitor (01:36:37 GMT) : He said that the 20 off was only good if I got both items but if I got one item it would be 12:50 which is all really a racket because the 20 was supposed to make a payment towards me for the inconvenience but it is what it is I just would like to get the baseball item what the XXX off and I believe I have a $5 credit on my account for Kmart Shop Your Way Rewards
Visitor (01:38:22 GMT) : Did I lose u?
Tina (01:38:39 GMT) : No, I am checking the details.
Visitor (01:38:55 GMT) : K, appreciate it
Tina (01:39:27 GMT) : Thank you.
Tina (01:41:03 GMT) : Let me transfer your chat to my supervisor
Info (01:41:07 GMT) : Tina has transferred this interaction.
Info (01:41:07 GMT) : The interaction has been transferred to Kurt
Kurt (01:41:26 GMT) : Hello my name is Kurt! I am the floor manager.
Visitor (01:41:33 GMT) : Hi
Kurt (01:41:34 GMT) : I was assisting Tina.
Visitor (01:41:43 GMT) : Thanks
Visitor (01:41:50 GMT) : This whole thing has been a nightmare
Kurt (01:42:03 GMT) : As per our system we have already processed the refund on 11/27/XXX.
Kurt (01:42:08 GMT) : So cannot offer you any discount.
Visitor (01:42:13 GMT) : Besides the fact that it's Christmas and these were Christmas presents that were on layaway and I'm sure money owed to me
Kurt (01:42:29 GMT) : Also I request you to check with your bank if you have received the refund.
Kurt (01:42:40 GMT) : As our system clearly shows the refund has been processed.
Visitor (01:42:51 GMT) : Look I have the transcript from the eighth from your guys's chat telling me that that they were going to initiate my refund that day I never got the refund I know what's in my bank account very little and I would definitely know if I had $XXX one day so that never happened
Kurt (01:42:56 GMT) : I have already passed feedback for the previous agent who has provided incorrect information.
Kurt (01:43:15 GMT) : If you are ready to place new order, we can offer you 5% discount for all the inconvenience caused.
Visitor (01:43:22 GMT) : Okay so where did that information come from they just made it all up and secondly you guys cancelled out my layaway that should have been camped outside just made a payment the day before so you guys should give me a discount because that doesn't even make sense it was an error on your part
Kurt (01:43:38 GMT) : This is the maximum the system will allow us.
Visitor (01:44:11 GMT) : The person I spoke to you on the 8th also told me that you guys charge me a fee for the layaway being canceled out so that's where the money coming back to me supposedly was coming from and I heard the same thing from him the 20 was the maximum the refund the computer would let him give so somebody's not being honest because 5% versus $20 that's a little bit of a difference there
Visitor (01:44:50 GMT) : And on the 8th the system was clearly showing that I wasn't refund but now you're telling me on the 27th is saying I was please
Visitor (01:46:15 GMT) : And that's not right because I'm looking back at my emails and the order wasn't canceled until the 28th so how is I credit it back on the 27th especially when it takes 10 to 14 days on top of that
Visitor (01:46:37 GMT) : So I made a payment on the 27th to you
Kurt (01:48:07 GMT) : I have rechecked the detail and the cancellation was done on 11/27/XXX at 09:30 and at the same time refund was processed from our end.
Kurt (01:48:16 GMT) : Have you checked with your bank?
Visitor (01:48:44 GMT) : Yes I've check with my bank I have online banking I'm looking at it right now there was nothing ever credited to me from you guys and there is no hundred and whatever dollars credited back to me anytime in November or December
Kurt (01:48:46 GMT) : The refund has been sent to your card ending with XXX.
Visitor (01:48:59 GMT) : Yep that's my bank account debit card no sir definitely not credited back
Kurt (01:49:26 GMT) : I will ask our billing team to investigate the issue. If the refund is stuck in the system we will release it as early as possible.
Kurt (01:50:02 GMT) : Our team will contact you within 48 hours at mcallisterflooring@yahoo.com
Visitor (01:50:03 GMT) : This is insane and again I know you sent a message or whatever to the people I spoke to you on the 8th where the hell were they getting their information from how was their information so far different than what you're telling me like what were they looking at and why do they tell me there was nothing ever refunded and they were going to initiate it that day and it would take me 10 to 14 days like did they just make that all up
Visitor (01:50:28 GMT) : Okay now back to the item that I was trying to get how much would it be if I ordered it through you with the 5% off with my $5 or whatever I have on my account for my Shop Your Way and it's supposed to be free shipping that's not leave that off
Kurt (01:50:31 GMT) : For the same reason I have passed the feedback for the previous agent.
Kurt (01:51:16 GMT) : Once you place the order let me know the order number and we will apply 5% discount for all the hassle.
Visitor (01:51:19 GMT) : Again doesn't make any sense I will be taking this to corporate with the transcripts from both of these emails or chats thank God you can download them and if everything you were saying is on the up-and-up then the order was already refunded then how come on the 8th they can give you credit and they could give me free shipping and everything else he promised me but today I would get 5% off because the system only let you give me 5% off and on the 8th after I was already credited back the system would allow $20 off how is that
Kurt (01:51:33 GMT) : The items should be sold by Sears/Kmart and not third party seller.
Visitor (01:51:51 GMT) : The item is sold by you guys that's how it was on layaway come on
Kurt (01:52:03 GMT) : Okay.
Kurt (01:52:20 GMT) : However, maximum the system will allow us is 5% discount.
Visitor (01:53:33 GMT) : Are you like just ignoring my questions how could they have given me the $20 off if my order was already refunded because it was refunded on the 27th and on the 8th of December they were going to give me that $20 off how is it different today than the 8th if I was credited back and everything was closed on the 27th if you can't answer my question send me somebody that can
Kurt (01:54:03 GMT) : It was promised on new order and not current order.
Visitor (01:54:57 GMT) : I don't have a current order my gosh send me to somebody else please
Visitor (01:55:42 GMT) : Would you like me to forward you the transcript from our conversation from the 8th of December
Visitor (01:56:32 GMT) : He clearly stated that because of the canceled layaway which never happens from you guys which was definitely done by mistake that he could actually go ahead and reorder me those items if I paid through him and order them and for the inconvenience that he would go ahead and credit me $20 and provide me free shipping then I told him I only wanted one item and he said he would give me $12.50 off and provide me one free shipping
Kurt (01:56:40 GMT) : I have already passed feedback for previous agent.
Kurt (01:56:51 GMT) : Since the order is cancelled we cannot offer any discount on the current order.
Visitor (01:56:55 GMT) : My card wouldn't go through I didn't have the money in the account so he told me to come back to this chat line whenever I was ready to make an order and everything that was promised would stay in the notes and I would get the same deal
Kurt (01:57:00 GMT) : If you are ready to place new order we can offer you 5% discount.
Kurt (01:57:11 GMT) : The same notes are mentioned by the previous agent.
Visitor (01:57:19 GMT) : How much is it going to be if I order it today with you with your little discount you're trying to provide me and the free shipping and then I will take this to corporate immediately
Visitor (01:57:34 GMT) : And I will definitely be taking other actions regarding the money I was never refunded back
Kurt (01:57:54 GMT) : I have already asked out team to investigate the issue.
Visitor (01:58:09 GMT) : Great this is how you guys treat your customers on your last little days that you guys are in business awesome
Visitor (01:58:29 GMT) : What do I need to pay today to get the item that I had on layaway it was the baseball whatever it was called
Kurt (02:00:25 GMT) : The order [protected] is already cancelled. So you cannot make any payment on cancelled layaway contract.
Visitor (02:01:09 GMT) : Oh my gosh do you even speak English you have been missing this whole conversation I am not trying to make a payment on the layaway read the notes I am trying to order an item from you guys right now and pay you through you guys right now and have it sent to my house
Visitor (02:01:21 GMT) : I want to be transferred to somebody else immediately
Kurt (02:02:33 GMT) : I am sorry for the confusion caused.
Kurt (02:02:50 GMT) : May I know the item number? I will share the order summary with you, with 5% discount.
Visitor (02:04:27 GMT) : [protected]

Kmart online buying

Very poor service with online shipping please if you can not provide a product even tho you say you have it online please take it off online service you provide so I don't get stuffed around with Christmas shopping for my children to the point I nearly didn't have a item for one of my children and if I hadn't had rang Kmart I wouldn't have known it had been cancelled .

Also I know of other people having the same issue and saying Target dosent do this please fix this problem as I do not want to shop with target thank you.

Kmart store employees

I have never witnessed the absolute out of control employees as the ones in this store. To night, for instance, several were by the front door by the customer service desk and just yelling, playing around, and carrying on. Then when we were checking out, they were still at it, but now swearing. Finally, someone told them to watch their mouths. We have been in there when the cashier was literally laying his head and shoulders down on the checkout stand and was saying how tired he was, he had been working all day, mind you it was 3 pm when we were in there. These are just 2 examples of scenes that are an everyday event in that store. It is a poor representation of the Kmart name. It is an absolute embarrassment to the brand name of Sears/Kmart. I do hope someone will visit this store and do something about this type of constant behavior. We have not lived in Key Largo for very long and have never seen this type of behavior in other stores.

That employee was a young able bodied man and it was during the summer when we are in low season not the holidays. If you are going to be "adult enough" to be at a job you don't lay around the register and complain to the customers how tired you are, especially when it's very slow at work. During off season I highly doubt he worked 11 or 12 hours. It wasn't the first time this type of thing was happening and I know what it's like working long hours, I've worked 2 and 3 jobs at once before to make ends meet and I was tired, but the customers never knew it! If you've worked hard, you can tell the difference between lazy and tired.

Kmart the price check machine

As we was checking a price on Christmas stuff the machine fell and hit my two year old in the head. They should have them secured so they cant easily fall off and hit a child. I notified management on my way out and his response was ok i will go look at it. Atlease the other lady asked if my two year old was ok while we was waiting on management to get up there. He never asked anything but where was this at.

Kmart disrespectful discriminatory behaviour

I m really in mental shock the way I treated in your Aspley hypermarket store Manager Mitchele and Employee named Gorja on Saturday 26th of Octuber around 8.15pm at the way she insulted me I m really so much mentally tortured that I m really feeling like as i should commit suicide. I just gone to return my Microwave with receipt and she just treat me as I have stolen it and she just keep my Microwave and receipt and start questioning me as I m a thief. Really is this the way you trained your workers to treat with the customers. Just I was feeling so embarrassed in front of all other people that is really biggest mental harassment ever I received that I m really frustrated that I will never come back to Kmart again and not in my whole family will come to get this kind of embarrassment. I just need to kmow for what I get treated like that because I m from a different race. If you guys really didn't take any appropriate action and refund my money and apology letter from that employee I will write a letter to human right commission and believe me the way I get mentally harassment I will sue your company

Kmart bad service/bad management

I didnt think there would be any store worst then Walmart, but this KMART is the worst. Staff from the employees to the manager everyone was unfriendly and very unhelpful. What brought me in to Kmart today was a coupons for $10 off on any $25 or more purchase...which is a lied, lied and lied! I purchase a total of $29.09 to be exact, but the the cashier said it was not enough, she said I need to spend another $16 in order to use the coupon. I asked her why she said she does not know, I asked to speak to a manager, an older lady came over. She too could not tell me why. She said there is exclusion on the coupon which we both read the coupon, but non of the items I purchased was part of the exclusion. She started to say it is "Shop Your Way" coupons fault. I told her it was a Kmart coupons not Shop Your Way, she said well she does not know why and there is nothing she could do about it. She told me to call Shop Your Way and talk to them(that is another horror story). Talk about lousy service and lousy attitude. With service like this, no wonder why you guys can't stay in business. Keep your coupons because I will not be shopping at KMART again, although I will go back to return what I purchased to day so I can take my business somewhere else.

Kmart tv

I bought a TV last year. I purchased a Smart plan in case anything would happen to the tv. I attempted to submit a reimbursement claim last month and I was informed that one of their technicians had to view the TV themselves to verify the tv could not be repaired. That was not an issue. The issue was that I was giving the round around for a month, from department to department, they made duplicate case numbers, and one system verified my coverage, however, the other did not. Now I am waiting because none of their technicians for Kmart or Sears come out to my service area. They are trying to get contractors but nobody will take the job. Nobody can offer me any other solutions. At this point I would be willing to take the tv to a Kmart and have an employee verify the tv is broken. This company is the worst and could care less about their customers. If you don't have a technician then give me a reimbursement. I have filed several complaints, attempted to contact corporate office, and spoken to the escalation team. Nobody can do anything.

Kmart employee disrespectfulness and rudeness

I regularly shop at the 770 Broadway NY, NY location and have regularly experienced extremely rude employees who insist on belittling and embarrassing and humiliating me. I shopped yesterday at this location I needed to use the restroom the restroom was locked I saw an employee with 3 rolls of toilet paper in his hand walking towards me as i stood in front of the bathroom I asked if he had a key code to unlock the the bathroom he stated " we don't have keys" I said i know I asked for the key code he then stated "how bad do you have to go" I was completely baffled by his response he then said "you'll have to wait I have stuff to do in there" I then said I have to go he then said " what do you have to do" again completely baffled I could not believe he would ask such questions. I said nothing at that point he then said "are you going to pee in your pants" I then said sir may i please use the bathroom he then said well I have to change the rolls first I have work to do. so I then said Sir I really ave to go he again stated are you going to pee in your pants. So completely embarrassed and humiliated I said yes i'm going to pee in my pants he then said well you better be fast because I have work to do in there so finally after all that he opens the door. I find this behavior completely unacceptable as I have several times before in this same location and have filed complaint about rude and unacceptable behavior by employees in this store such as I have witnessed this behavior expressed towards other customers. I want to see action taken again these employees and I am will to point out there identity or what ever it takes. I will no longer shop at kmart stores until action is taken. please contact me for any further info .
