Complaint: I am rejecting this response because: Sincerely, Alic [redacted] Complaint ID # 10997482- Sears Holdings Corporation Beverly Road, Hoffman Estates, IL Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing this letter since I am shocked after I got your massage informing that my case is closed.A Sears technician came on January 15, he replaced the filter, water started flowing but no ice.Technician said that I need to wait hrs .Next day - no ice .Today is January and my refrigerator does not make ice and is freezing food in nonfreezing compartment

Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: I wish the sales person would have told us that the [redacted] Refrigerator was not a [redacted] but another Manufactureif we would have known that we would have purchased a well known brandTo me this is not a good or fair sales practice Sincerely, [redacted]

January 29, [redacted] Revdex.com North Wabash Ave, Ste#Chicago, IL [redacted] Dear [redacted] We have completed the investigation of Mr [redacted] complaint regarding the delay in parts for the repair of his washing machine We understand that Mr [redacted] is upset that one of the parts needed to complete his repair was on back order causing a delay in serviceWe apologize in the delay in receiving all the parts needed to repair his washer, unfortunately as parts are ordered from the manufacture Sears has no ability to expedite a part order when a part is on backorderSears uses manufacture parts whenever possible and at times if a manufacture is out of a part we must wait on the manufacture to provide partsWe do show that all parts have arrived at Mr [redacted] home and service is scheduled for February 2, We also understand that Mr [redacted] is requesting Sears cover the remaining repair cost due to the part delay as well as reimbursement of costs to do their laundry outside the home Sears offers, and offered Mr [redacted] at time of purchase, a Protection Agreement The reality exists that no matter how high the quality is on the items we sell, the potential always exists for a product to fail We also understand how frustrating this can be to a consumer, especially after the manufacturer’s warranty has expired and covered repairs are not an option It is for this reason that Sears, and most other retailers, offer some sort of extended warranty coverage In the past, it could be argued that this was not always a wise purchase, since many retailers would make frequent exceptions to their return and exchange policies in an effort to satisfy their customers Unfortunately, due to the rampant abuse of these courtesies, most retailers had to abstain from these practices many years ago It is always the customer’s choice on whether they would like the peace of mind that would come with having an extended warranty; much like deciding whether to have insurance on personal property Under a Protection Agreement are other benefits when repairs take longer than expected such as laundry reimbursement, rental reimbursement even a replacement clause when we have a situation such as a long delay in parts The benefits have to be weighed against the costs, with the understanding that if it is not purchased, the consumer would then have to bear the consequences of that decision To expect Sears to bear the repair expense associated with a product that is so far out of warranty (a couple of days or weeks might justify some consideration of extenuation) is unrealistic and inappropriate It would be unjust for Sears to provide free service to Mr [redacted] , while charging others for such service through Sears Protection Agreement fulfillment or direct charges for repairsSince we have explained why we are unable to honor Mr [redacted] request for free service or laundry reimbursement that he does not have coverage for and all parts have arrived to complete the repair we have closed our case with the understanding that Mr [redacted] will be responsible for the remaining balance of the repairs We apologize to Mr [redacted] and appreciate the opportunity to address this matter Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or concerns Sincerely, [redacted] Regulatory Complaint Specialist Sears Holdings Corporation [redacted]

Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because:Yes, the part that was originally ordered was the incorrect part and the correct part was ordered and installed on Monday, April 11, 2016, the freezer still isn't freezing completelyIt is now making ice but not completely freezing items as it shouldAdditionally, the reason why I agreed to wait until the part came in is because I refuse to pay more money for another refrigerator or choose another refrigerator that is beneath the quality of the one I currently haveNor will I go out and purchase a small refrigerator until the current one was fixedI've already spent thousands of dollars at Sears between the washer, refrigerator and mattress that were all purchased with days.I've been purchasing items from Sears for over 30yrs and this experience that I've had has completely changed my opinion about Sears and how it values it's customers Sincerely, [redacted]

January 7, 2016 [redacted] RevDex.com 330 North Wabash Ave., Ste. #2006 Chicago, IL 60611 Re: [redacted] Dear [redacted] We have completed the investigation of Ms. [redacted] complaint regarding the non-receipt of a gift card.... Upon researching Ms. [redacted] concerns, we found that the last time she contacted Sears about the missing gift card was on November 30, 2015. The agent who spoke with Ms. [redacted] researched the gift card and found that it was issued via email on November 18, 2015. After confirming Ms. [redacted] email address and devaluing the first e-gift card, he had another e-gift card issued. If Ms. [redacted] has not received the e-gift card, we will have to devalue it and issue another. However, this time an actual gift card will be mailed via regular mail. If Ms. [redacted] has not received the second $40.00 e-gift card, we ask that she check her Junk Mail folder before contacting us again, as sometimes the e-gift card is directed there. In the event that a third gift card needs to be processed, it will be for the original amount of $40.00. While we empathize with Ms. [redacted] , we will not be providing her with a $100.00 gift card, as the $40.00 gift cards have been processed and sent as promised; the issue may be with her email account. With that said, since we have confirmed that another $40.00 gift card has been sent to Ms. [redacted] , we ask that this matter be closed. We appreciate the opportunity to address this matter. Sincerely, [redacted] Regulatory Complaints Specialist
