Sears Service of my refrigerator

We reside at 4054 Rexford C, Boca Raton, Fla. 3343. In April, 2023 the ice making component of our fridge stopped working. A tech guy from Sears came to fix it and charged us $532. He said it would work in 24 hours. It did not work. We called Sears and told the customer service rep that we had to leave Florida but we were assured that upon our return, in July, the issue would be fixed. In July, the same tech guy came and again charged us $562 to repair what was never repaired. We should NOT have been charged a 2nd time! After 24 hours the ice-making compenent did NOT begin to work. We've been charged, by Sears, about $1100 and our issue has not been fixed. We want full reimbursement.

Please advise to whom we may speak.

Mrs S. Forer

Sears Dishwashers

When it was determined that our dishwasher was not repairable, I called customer service and was told my options on the replacement. The dishwasher (550) offered was not of the same quality (features) as what I have now (650). I spoke to a supervisor about my concerns. I was told that the 650 dishwasher was not available and I responded that it was on the ge web site. She then proceeded to tell me (paraphrased) "how old is your dishwasher - what do t you expect to get out of an old dishwasher". I told her I expected sears to do what it says on page 3 of the contract agreement. Her response was - "it will wash your dishes." this call was made on september 26, 2023. It was recorded by you. Because I had no other options (other than to except the extremely low cash offer) I agreed to accept the 550 dishwasher with objections.

Desired outcome: A dishwasher equal to the broken one that I have covered under the warranty plan. Page 3 of the plan states what should be expected. Compare the 550 to the 650 and anyone can see the difference.

Sears Master protection Agreement

I just renewed my agreement 2 months ago. The Icemaker in my Kenmore Elite is not working so I called in for service. I got confirmation for service on order Number [protected] on 9/14/2023. The service was scheduled for 9/21/2023, but no one has showed up. I've called the service company several times and left messages, but I don't get a call back. Calling the 800 number at the bottom of the agreement is a joke. I can't get to talk to a real person.

If this is what is going to happen with repairs on the refrigerator and washer that are on the agreement in the future, we have a problem.

Desired outcome: Replace both appliances with brands that will last, because obviously you don't have a repairman in New Mexico and my Master Protection Agreement is just a useless piece of paper.

We purchased a washing machine and have had a service contract for several years. The washing machine developed a problem, so we requested service on July 31st. The repair technician showed up August 2nd and looked at the machine, he advised he could not find parts but would get back to us. The part still had not arrived by August 17th and we were notified...

Sears Sears protection agreement contract

It is September 2023, our family has had a Sears protection contract in place for years. For years we have paid for protection for the appliances we purchased from Sears. This year, in September when we called to renew, we have been told that the agreement is no longer available. We can replace it with lessor coverage for the same price and that there will be a 30 day wait for coverage. We have used our service agreement maybe 3 times in 20 years. They should not be allowed to remove our contract when we have been faithfully paying every year. To be told, oh we are just not offering that coverage anymore, you can pay the same for less coverage with is a kick in the face to a loyal customer.

Desired outcome: renew my contract

Sears craftman replacement

I recently filed a warranty return on a craftsman tool which Sears accepted - they gave me “points” to use on their online store to replace the tool. That was a couple of weeks ago when I login I see the points posted to my account but none are available to use and they have no way to contact a person to resolve the issue. I have tried everything I can find on their website but none of it works -

Sears sears home services appliance warranty plan

We purchased the warranty for our washer & dryer. Our washer broke down and we contacted Sears Home Services and subsequently our scheduled appointment has been cancelled and re-scheduled 3 times by Sears. The first appointment the techniciacn could not complete all of his scheduled repairs so he could not get to us. Sears policy is to re-schedule our appointment, NOT move us to the next day, or when technicians are available.

Next our 2nd appointment cancelled by Sears and re-scheduled again with no input from us.

Our third scheduled appointment on 9/18 was again cancelled and re-scheduled to 10/6 because Sears did not have technicians available to provide service.

This is basic breach of contract and fraud.

We have emails and texts showing the cancellations and no shows

Desired outcome: Provide our service or refund our warranty cost

Sears Sears home services for repair on my lawn tractor repair

I have been trying to get my lawn tractor fixed since Aug 25th. I have had two service calls cancelled on the day service was supposed to occur. Today, Sept 18 I was supposed to have a technician come between 8 - 5. at Noon I received a text message saying my appointment was cancelled and I needed to reschedule. At 12:15 I called in and they said they could schedule me for today - the 18th before 5 PM. At 3 PM my appointment was again cancelled.

I have been on the phone since then trying to find out why it was cancelled twice in one day and when I could expect to have a technician come out.

I have asked to talk to supervisors (I've been bounced between departments) and have been told they are too busy - high call volume.

As of now the best the call center can do is Oct 9th.

What do I need to do to get a technician out to fix my broken belt on the tractor?

Desired outcome: I want a technician out ASAP and not be told one thing and have another occur.

Sears Master protection plan

The refrigertor has not worked and has had 4 service calls. Sears refuses to honor the NO Lemon guarrantee. I have spent countless hours on the phone and waiting for service technicians to arrive and then waiting weeks for parts to arrive with a nonfuncional refrigerator. Still they refuse to honor the replacement

First repair appointment 10/13/22, second is 4/20/23. then 6/16/23 and 9/13/23

That is 4 appointments and Jonathan employee number 719693 is refusing to start the order for replacement. This is dishonest practice. My elderly parents bought that protection plan and they are being taken advantage of.

Plan is for Samir Tadros

Desired outcome: I need the protection plan honored and replacement issued.

Sears Service

I contacted Sears at 9:30 this morning (Sept. 11, 2023) to make an appointment for a technician to come to my residence to service my HVAC unit, which is leaking water. To my surprise and delight, I was told that a technician could come that same day between 10am and 2pm. I immediately made the appointment and eagerly awaited the technician's arrival. Lo and behold, it's now 7:22pm and I have yet to receive a phone call, an email, or a text message from Sears. Given that I have to give them a credit card number, I can only surmise that this is a common practice of Sears in an effort to lock customers in to doing business with them. I'll give them a couple of days before contacting another contractor.

Desired outcome: My desire is for a technician come to my residence and complete the necessary repairs to my HVAC unit.

Sears Sears master protection plan

After hearing from them they were replacing my refrigerator, I have been strung out an additional month by saying I should have never been told that they would pay men $3,199 and that it is management review. Call back 3 business days or 5 to 7 business days. Last week was told it was approved again for $3,199 just not the model but this week was told its in a new management review again. How can that be. This is fraud and bogus. BBB has been notified. I will go to small claims court too.

Desired outcome: Give me the refund of a replacement or a replacement. No fridge for going on 2 months. You think you can wait me out? I can always buy a new one and go to small claims court. I am retired I have the time, Do you?

Sears Vinyl siding

Back in 1999 i had my house sided by Sears. They had a 50 year guarantee or maybe lifetime.

I don't remember the year I started calling for repairs, but they told me yes they had done my house but it was under someone elses name and it was non-transferable.

I had no proof I could not find my paper work. They would not budge.

Now the other day i haave the proof that I bought and paid for it. It was 13 or 14,000.00 dollars i got the contract number.

Now, what can be done about this now the 50 years is not up and the siduing is all faded and looks terrible.

I think they should reside my house or something close to that.

Desired outcome: Replacement of product

Sears sears master protection

i went on-line and made an appointment to get an estimate to repair my refrigerator and the repairman came and gave me an estimate. He said that he sent the invoice to me over the email but instead I got only advertisements and no invoice. In the past I always used Sears for my repairs and they always were perfect. I never had any complaints until today.

Well, I will never use them again, ever.

Sears Home air conditioner under sears home protection and hasn't worked in a month.

We have been without air for the whole month of August in Florida with little to no help from your home warranty people..We are an elderly couple over 80 and believe this to be elder abuse as we have been waiting for them to call with no one getting back to us...we are told to wait for a phone call or a service person from 8-4.[protected]. Lionel is never available to talk and doesn't return phone calls from the service department in Beverly Hills Fl. along with Jocks who was helpful but Lionel is almost unreachable and whom we are told to speak with...no one answers the phone so they screen the calls. The next call will be from attorneys.

We will be contacting an attorney as we feel this is unacceptable from Sears.

They are now being treated for heat exhaustion...they have been in the house with heat above 90F inside then house.

Desired outcome: Litigation against Sears and Lionel will be charged for elderly abuse.

Claim 751605. This is the biggest scam ever. Master protection plan is supposed to reimburse me an approved $600.00 for replacement of the furnace motor fan. It was in the dead of winter with over a month of waiting, Sears failed to fix. This was 11/14/22. It's now 8/30/23 and after more than 50 calls and the same fake line given to me, I am still waiting...

Sears Refrigerator

I purchased a Kenmore Elite model in 2018. After 4.5 years of service, the compressor needed to be replaced. I came to find out that the compressor is an LG part, which is notoriously unreliable. After reviewing my warranty, which states "Sears will replace, free of charge, within 5 years of purchase", I scheduled an appointment with Service Home..

Desired outcome: Replacement
