“Repairman only wanted to sell me a warranty. Repair part never showed up. Repair had to be rescheduled after spending two hours trying to find someone to explain the situation to. Still haven’t heard from anyone. This is my third washer in six years and the second time it broke down. They collected $400 up front and then went awol. Screw Sears”
“Contact if you want to pay 300-400$ for simple repair just on labor or you want to wait 2-3 weeks with out a fridge scam artist company go elsewhere unless you want to overpay a guy to go and guess the problem or wait 2 weeks for them to come back out I’m glad Sears stores and no longer a thing former sears tech”
“I wouldn't give this company a single star if it wasn't required to fill at least one to write a review. I have a service protection agreement for my washer and dryer. The dryer died, so I scheduled maintenance. There was NO contact from Sears by email call or text during any of the process, I had to initiate all of it myself, even when they randomly cancelled or rescheduled. The dryer needed a part they didn't have in stock, so it went to ordering and I was told if in 10 days they couldn't get it, I would get a replacement dryer. Multiple weeks to by, and I have called them numerous times to figure out when I will have something done, no one knows what's happening, they offer me $50 whole dollars for the laundromat! Wow! I've not had a dryer for over a month by then. The voucher also takes 21 days by mail, they say (it never arrives). Finally they get to the point of offering me a credit for a new dryer, which I reluctantly order because it means I'm still dealing with SEARS. That was in June. My dryer broke in March. It is not AUGUST, the date of my scheduled delivery (And HAUL AWAY of the broken machine) and I've heard nothing from the supposed night-before confirmation call. I initiate contact AGAIN and they tell me they don't have the dryer in stock but once they do it will ship to me. No effort to do anything more to make it right. Hardly even an apology for the fact that I have been without a dryer for 5+mos on the promise that they will make things right PER A PAID SERVICE AGREEMENT. Do not buy anything from this trash company, there's a reason they've gone bankrupt and closed 90% of their locations.”
“Not happy! Bought a fridge! Delivery date was 7/1/24 and never got it! Never got an email or call indicating it would be delayed! I cancelled the order which took longer than should have! It was effectively cancelled 7/12/24! I was told it should take 7 to 10 business days to refund the money they took from my account upon purchase in June 2024! It has been 20 business days and my money has not been returned! They have effectively stolen my money!!! Anyone want to start a class action??? Let me know”
“I have a maintenance agreement until Oct. I have been calling for service since APRIL 2024. MY lawn mower has not been fixed. I have had to pay for cutting my grass all Summer. H E L P. PLS.”
“BEWARE Sears Home Protect Warranty
Been without an oven since May '24, waiting on parts. After 5 phone calls, and my situation being "escalated" four of the 5 times I've spoken to someone, I'm still waiting on either parts or someone to have the authority to replace my ovens. Each time I had been assured I would hear from someone in 5-10 days or 3-5 days. One agent felt so bad he assured me I would hear from him and he wanted to compensate me for my inconvenience by sending me a $50 check (which I did receive). I've been told a number of times there is no supervisor to speak to until (August 9 '24) this most recent agent assured me (again) a supervisor would call me within 24 hours.”
“5 months and refrigerator still not delivered.
Initiated cancellation/refund process…2 weeks later, refund still not initiated.
Sears has my money. I can’t get my refrigerator. I can’t get my money back….5 months!
Never, ever buy through Sears appliance.”
“Do not order from Sears direct parts.com . I placed in order never received my order actually received someone else is order and had to return it to UPS. When calling a dozen times they don't speak English or tell you the truth. It's all a script they read. I cancelled the order and they said I would receive my money in 3 to 5 days. It never came. They will tell you it's your bank which it isn't. The Bank is a bucket that you're money drops in. Sears needed to press the button and return my money but they didn't. They keep it in there account to draw a little interest off of it.$604.92 was what I was waiting on. It took 5 weeks of calls to get the same story 3 to 5 days which never comes. You can never get to a supervisor or manager. Don't order from them... You will have to get your bank involved to dispute it to get your money back. SCAM...”
“Okay, so my washing machine started producing loads of laundry that were covered in lint last week on Fri. Not a big deal, I've had it for 15 years. Kenmore refers me to Sears and I call them. Okay. Sears schedules me a $99 service call for Monday. So far, quite acceptable.
Except that the guy doesn't show up. He calls ahead and informs me that he can only work on dryers. So Sears reschedules me for the next day - then blows off the appointment again. I'm not exactly clear on why, it was either another unqualified technician or a discrepancy about the price (guy called on his way to me and quoted me $150).
So we try again. This one is for Thursday (today). Guy calls me at 8:30am re a 1:00-5:00 appointment and tells me he's on his way. Well okay, but you won't find me there until noon, the very earliest. And he also tries to jack up the cost. Can't decide whether he wants $145 or $140, whereas the call center tries to milk me for $120 before settling for $99.
But the guy never shows up. Now I should have called them earlier, but I didn't get around to it until 9:00pm, at which time the call center tells me they'd sent me another unqualified worker, and offers free service. This calms me down, until he goes on to tell me that the next available appointment is next week on Monday.
Well I finally lose my temper at this affront. Call center rep transfers me to scheduling, who refuse to honor the free work offer their colleagues made. I ask for a transfer back to them - and they're closed.
Scheduling guy goes on to ask me three times over roughly 30 minutes to tell him why today's appointment didn't happen. I answer every time, but the third time, I tell him to put on his listening ears, and that I'm going to lose my sh*t like he's never heard before if he makes me repeat myself a fourth time.”
“So we had a kenemore elite refrigerator that we had the service plan on. It lasted aboit 12 years. The last few years it was not staying as cold as it should. So the technician came out a few times and finally said that it could bot be fixed so I would have to get a replacement. After getting the run around with sears I finally received a voucher code for $1500 to buy a new refrigerator on their online site. It could only be used for a refrigerator and it could only be used on their site. After trying to place an order for a different refrigerators for over a few days I finally called them frustrated because all the refrigerators were out of stock. They were not much help, just told me I had to wait until they were in stock to order and they did not know when that would be. I was really irritated. So after trying to order again and it kept saying there was an error, try again later. I finally called and was transferred to a live person who helped me find a fridge that was in stock. Of course it was more money than our voucher but we placed the order and had a delivery date 3 weeks later. When the date arrived and I did not hear from anyone I called again. The guy assured me it would com on the date and I will get a call the night before. I never received the call so I called again the morning of the delivery date. Now they say it is in transit and they don’t know when it will be delivered. This whole experience has been so extremely frustrating. I cancelled the order and went to Best Buy to get a fridge that I know will be delivered on the day I picked. Do yourself a favor and avoid aggravation, DO NOT buy from Sears The company used to be good but now it is horrible!”
“I wish I could leave a zero!! Why did we buy the warranty? Our stove has not been fixed yet!! It’s been 3 months!!! The service person is literally sitting in my driveway and telling me he doesn’t have all the necessary parts to fix the stove. Well why did you drive all the way here before you figured that out and hold us hostage all day waiting for you? This is a total scam!! They take our money for warranty and string us along about fixing the problem and don’t! 3 months is a joke! Do better Sears!!! I will NEVER buy from them again!! I hope this review finds its way to ALL potential customers and convinces them not to do business with SEARS!!”
“I have been waiting for our washer to be fixed for three months now. First, the part took two months to appear. The part was sent to a different location other than my home. When I called, they said it was somewhere else and they would be sending the part to my house. They rescheduled my appointment and no one showed up. They said whoever took my call forgot to put it into the system that they were supposed to come to my home to fix my washer. Now I have to wait FIVE MORE DAYS for someone to come and fix our machine. I am BEYOND frustrated with Sears. I will not renew a warranty with them or buy their products.”
“Broken dishwasher
I’m 6 months in and no further on!!! I’ve been given the run around by the call center who have no idea what they are doing? They must have spent thousands on parts which have not worked and refuse to just replace!!!! Lie after lie countless hours spent in line on their inept call line!! HEED MY WORDS, DO NOT HAVE SEARS AS YOUR APPLIANCE WARRANTY COMPANY !! The other frustration is they have no superiors in place so no where to garner satisfaction!! Utter nightmare!!!!”
“Everything went wrong. Charged me for a part that wasn’t needed, took it back with them and never refunded my money. It is impossible to get a hold of anyone. They are an international call service that will not respond to any request on phone or email. Do not use this company.”
“Charged us 119 to diagnose the issue and for parts, (over 500 total charged for a 5 minute visit). The technician made an appointment to install the parts two weeks later! (The earliest date he said he had open) then NEVER showed up, and never contacted us to reschedule.
When we called the service center to find out what happened they tell us we didn't have an appointment (a lie the website still shows we had an appointment on July 20th, I have screen shots!) the parts he said they had, turns out they didn't actually have them, they ordered them and sent them to us....but they're lost in the mail, oops. Well one is lost, the other hasn't shipped yet two weeks later.
But they want to sell us some new windows we don't need and how about a home warranty?? Their solution to going on three wks without a working fridge?... We should just call them when the parts arrive....whenever that is and make an appointment to get them installed.
Absolute SCAM of a company. Over 500 dollars for them to do absolutely nothing.
Pathetic customer service and complete failure to get the job done. We have no timeline for when it will be fixed since the part is lost, and not even shipped yet, and no working fridge.
The only thing they're interested in is selling you more services at a monthly charge, I have zero confidence they could actually handle.
Setting your house on fire would be more productive than calling Sears to fix the problem. Avoid this company at all costs.”
“Sears is not a company that provided any customer service and lack of care. They didn't have dressing rooms at the location and would not honor a return. The product was brand new, with the tags, and the receipt.
It was a week outside the 30 day return policy because I live an hour and a half from the location. Manager could careless about honoring me as a customer.
Will never shop there again. Sadly business reflects zero customer service.”
“Bought a LG refrigerator and extended warranty for it, both from Sears. Refrigerator breaks, first they sent out the wrong parts then they tell me they can’t locate the correct parts. Haven’t had a working refrigerator for 6weeks. Despite promises to call back and talking to 4 different departments (all who promise to expedite the issue and call back and never do) issue is still not resolved.”
