October 6th and it was to be delivered 8 days later. I prayed that the old one would make it that long, it went literally overnight, and there is a great deal to lose in a refrigerator as compared to other major appliances.
Mine made it, and the new one was delivered with a dent that ran the entire front to back on the bottom one side and a major dent in the middle. Since, the delivery people had already removed the old one, Sears tried to offer me an extended warranty paid for by them for 2 yrs. I said this was not one, but two potential fault areas and no the 2 yrs wasn't worth it! To their credit they at least left the damaged one.
Thank God I didn't accept it because, it would lose capacity in the freezer and start to thaw things, the ice cubes would turn to water on the edges and then refreeze.
Ok, delivery 2 the next week. I explained to the delivery people, (which by the way, I believe are contractors, because Sears.com and they will transfer you back and forth to appropriately point the finger at the other guy) where and what the dent is, guess what they didn't even bring the new one up as it had the same dent.
Delivery 3, (next week)I get a message that the third refrigerator was damaged and they did not even load it on the truck.
Now, I lose it! I am pretty tolerant, shit really does happen, but they want to deliver almost a month later. I spent time back and forth and accepted that this would be the last attempt they had, why? because I was using their broken refrigerator and what a hassle it would be to go with someone else.
The 4th delivery: It was delivered and had a scratch at the top, a scratch I live with, even though it is on the kitchen exposed side.
I was supposed to get a gift card, and free delivery and repair paint. The free delivery was supposed to occur with the purchase, but because my invoice was in my e mail account and I had no packing slip (had not accepted delivery and ordered on line and either Comcast or Internet Explorer completely wiped my in box, nada nothing, I had no proof of purchase for the damn thing). I was told by Forrest at Sears that I would receive the delivery credit and a $60.00 gift card in 3 weeks and by another rep the factory paint to touch up
Well, it's around 3 weeks and I haven't opened what looks like junk mail, but, if neither of these have been sent, I will call my ex at the local NBC news affiliate.
Oh, by the way, each but not the last delivery, I purchased ice, loaded the cooler and had everything removed by the time they came. That's alot of work for nothing.
I purchased a range, dishwasher, washer and dryer from them last year with some hassle, (don't want to go there now), and I will never, ever order from them again. They hope you accept their bs and go away! I hate it, because we have so little competition as it is, but, come on let's get some more competition, because the biggies have lost their ability to DELIVER anything.
Someone posted about a tv the other week and was blasted by someone here, well, guess what, I'm covered (all new appliances) are you.? Welcome to the Walmart economy, where the customer doesn't get or deserve functioning appliances and customer service!
