I am rejecting this response because:
I don't want to close the complaint yet because Ashley...

hasn't made the effort to contact us directly and resolve the issue.  I'm wary that if I accept their response now, after several days there still won't be a resolution.  I want them to deliver our item now or if not, give us back our money with the insurance portion amount.Thank you.

Good Afternoon,
We here at Ashley Hometore would like to thank you for bringing this consumers concerns to our attention.  On behalf of Ashley Homestore please allow me to express our sincerest apologies to the consumer for their most recent experience in regards to the delay...

of merchandise. I can certainly understand the frustration the guest may have experienced in awaiting the arrival of their purchase in full. In regards to the delay while we do understand and empathize with the consumer we must advise that the chair required to fulfill their order did experience a true manufacture delay and all information provided was clear and accurate to our knowledge as we are solely a distributor and all merchandise is order from the manufacture for the consumer at the time of sale. In that regard while we do all within our power to provide accurate time frames for merchandise arrivals, merchandise can be delayed at a manufacture level due to supply and demand of the product. I am however pleased to advise at this time that all concerns for this guest have been resolved in full. A partial delivery was completed for the consumer on 12/21/16 of all items purchased with the exception of the chair;. The the remaining chair was successfully delivered on 1/7/17 to the consumers satisfaction. All services have have been rendered in full and all goods purchased have been delivered to the satisfaction of the consumer. Please advise if any additional steps or measures are required to be taken at this time to ensure 100% guest satisfaction.
Sincerely,
Deannie F[redacted]

I have reviewed the offer and/or response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
Each time I called Ashley Furniture a manager was not available to discuss the issue.1.  The delivery charges should have been waived due to the delay.2.  No apology was given when I called. What I was told was, "no refund" even though they held up my delivery.3.  Manager stated when I called: we gave an estimate of 2-3 weeks but it can take longer. Why not be honest with the consumer and "just say it will be 4-6 weeks or 6-8 weeks"? I'll say it again the manager could care less about my merchandise and stated "there is nothing we can do".4.  Why tell the consumer the products are in but in reality they are not?I don't appreciate being lied to or given the runaround because the manager doesn't want to deal with an issue. Very disappointed in Ashley Furniture and maybe I went to the wrong location. Going forward, I have to tell others not to go to Ashley Furniture. If you want good furniture go to [redacted] or [redacted]'s never change up a good thing. A mistake I have learned.
Regards,
[redacted]

Good Morning,
 
We here at Ashley Furniture Homestore would like to thank you for bringing this consumers concerns to our attention. Our customer care department has been diligently working with the consumer to address her merchandise concerns. We did as the...

consumer advised addressed her original concern with the middle cushion with parts ordered and installed. The repair did resolve the original concern of the merchandise being repaired. However, the consumer did express a secondary concern of the die lot differing from the original cushions in her home. While we must advise that the manufacture does not guarantee die lot, we can certainly empathize with the consumers concerns. The consumer was advised two additional cushions and  casings were ordered for the sofa, as well as all cushions and casings were ordered for the loveseat as well. While there was no confirmed damage for any of the parts placed on order, we felt it was in the best interest of the consumer to replace all to improve the likelihood of a die match of all pieces in her home.  The consumer is currently on schedule for a service technician to install all parts ordered on 3/1/16. We are confident all concerns will be resolved in full at that time. Please advise if we can be of any additional assistance in resolving the consumers concerns. 
Best Regards,
Deannie [redacted]

Spoke with guest.  Scheduled the delivery for 8/7 and I submitted a refund request to refund the delivery fee of $69.99 for the delay.

have every item displayed in our showrooms.  We provide our customers the opportunity to cancel the product anytime prior to the drive team leaving the customers home.  At every delivery, our drive team contacts our dispatch group and has the customer ensure that they are happy with their product.  During this check out process, our dispatch group speaks to the individual accepting the product and once they confirm that the customer is happy with their products, the customers sign the delivery receipt and the delivery team is released from that stop. At that point, the product is now the consumers.  Since our goal is to delight our customers, we have offered this customer something outside of the terms and conditions of our sale (please see attachment).  Our Customer Care team offered this customer the opportunity to reselect new product in our showroom.  With this option we require the customer to purchase in stock products, and to pay a handling fee of $199.99 and a redelivery fee.  This particular customer was not happy with that option.  This option would need to be resolved within 3 days from the original delivery date and the customer would have to return the product in their home in the same condition in which we originally delivered it.Ashley Furniture HomeStore is committed to delighting our customers.  We would love the opportunity to coordinate a meeting between the consumer and the showroom.  Please let me know if there is a particular time that would work out well.   Have a great day, Melanie[redacted] Ext. [redacted]

To Whom It May Concern: As previously stated, this customer's concern would be resolved through the customers protection plan.  As a courtesy, Ashley Furniture HomeStore covered the cost of the parts to repair the customer's concern.  If the customer would like additional assistance with the protection plan company, please have him contact our customer care team at ###-###-####. Thank you, Melanie
