February 26, 2016     Nita [redacted] Revdex.com 330 North Wabash Ave., Ste. #2006 Chicago, IL  60611   Re: [redacted] – Dave [redacted]   Dear Ms. [redacted],   We have reviewed Mr. [redacted]’s rebuttal complaint regarding his non-receipt of the refund check.   It is unfortunate that we failed Mr. [redacted]’s expectations as we value his patronage. We can understand how the series of events detailed in his complaint has caused him to lose faith in Sears. We regret that this incident occurred, and apologize again for any inconvenience he may have experienced. After reviewing Mr. [redacted]’s rebuttal we forwarded this matter to Sears accounting center and they are currently re-issuing a new check which will be overnighted to Mr. [redacted]. We left a voice message and sent an email correspondence to Mr. [redacted] to inform him of our findings. Additionally, we hope that in the future Mr. [redacted] will allow us another opportunity to provide him with a better example of customer service that we have built our reputation upon. In the interim, since a new check has been overnighted to Mr. [redacted], we respectfully ask to have this matter closed.   We appreciate the opportunity to address this matter.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or concerns.   Sincerely,  Eligia [redacted] Regulatory Complaint Specialist Sears Holdings Corporation

January 25, 2016   [redacted] Revdex.com 330 North Wabash Ave., Ste. #2006 Chicago, IL  60611   [redacted]   Dear Ms. [redacted]   We have completed the investigation of Ms. [redacted] complaint regarding Sears Home Services.   First, we would...

like to apologize to Ms. [redacted] for failing her expectations when she recently scheduled service for her dishwasher.  While researching Ms. [redacted] concerns, we found that she was assisted by [redacted] in our Executive Member Support group.  Ms. [redacted] accepted a $100.00 credit to her [redacted] account as compensation for the inconvenience she experienced when her repair was rescheduled.  The refund request was submitted on January 25, 2016, so Ms. [redacted] can expect to see the credit post within the next five to seven business days.  With that said, since Ms. [redacted] is no longer interested in having Sears Home Services repair her dishwasher and we have processed the aforementioned refund, we ask that this matter be closed.   Again, we apologize to Ms. [redacted] and we appreciate the opportunity to address this matter.    Sincerely, [redacted] Regulatory Complaints Specialist

Prior to receiving Ms. [redacted]’s complaint, she was connected with Mr. [redacted], case manager from our Executive Member Services Department. I personally spoke with Mr. [redacted] who informed me that he has been in contact with Ms. [redacted] on December 14, 2015 and they discussed her concerns. Ms. [redacted] has agreed to send Mr. [redacted] a copy of the plumber’s bill and once received, a check will be processed to reimburse her for the plumber’s bill. Mr. [redacted] can be reached by calling 1-888-266-4043 ext. ** or via email at robert.[redacted]@searshc.com. Since Mr. [redacted] has agreed to reimburse Ms. [redacted] and he is waiting for her plumber’s bill, we see no reason to keep this complaint open and ask that it be closed.   We apologize to Ms. [redacted] and appreciate the opportunity to address this matter.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or concerns.

IL  60611[redacted]  [redacted] [redacted]Dear [redacted]We have completed the investigation of [redacted]
rebuttal to the response we provided regarding her online order.We have reviewed [redacted] rebuttal, and we do not
find that she has brought any new information to her complaint. While we
understand that she remains dissatisfied with the service she received, we are
unable to grant her request to reimburse her the price difference she paid at
another retailer. As clarification, Sears made a one-time courtesy exception in
refunding [redacted] for two orders that [redacted] found were in fact delivered to
the shipping address. Unfortunately, we are not always able to arrive at a
resolution that would meet with a consumer’s complete satisfaction, since we do
not find that all requests are reasonable and therefore within our power to
grant.  In [redacted] case we do
apologize if we failed her expectations, but we feel that a full refund for the
order she alleges to have not received is relative to the circumstances and our
decision is final.  We appreciate the opportunity to address this
matter.  Please feel free to contact me
if you have any further questions or concerns.Sincerely,[redacted]

Thank you for allowing Sears Home Improvement Products (SHIP) to assist...

you with the concern you recently brought to our attention. This letter serves to confirm that we have completed our investigation in regards to the above-referenced file. SHIP will not agree to replace the drain pan for free and will not take responsibility for the issues [redacted] is experiencing with her unit. That decision is based on the following information.

The unit was installed correctly and has been operating for over 5 years. The drain pan was not part of the contract. Per the technician, the issue is due to lack of maintenance and modifications the customer made to the drain pan after the install. The primary drain line was completely plugged up, and water slowly drained into the secondary drain which dripped down the side of the house and dripped on the window. The damage was clearly caused by the customer’s own neglect and modifications they made. The rust proves it has been dripping for some time, probably several years. The drain pan was heavily rusted as well. The customer requested and agreed to pay for releveling the secondary drain pan, which was done. He told the tech that he had made modifications which caused the pan to lean towards the window after the AC was installed.
The customer said in the complaint that the tech gave her a handwritten document that is not on the Sears’ ticket stating acceptance of liability, and then the tech changed it after he was paid. The customer is not accurate. The document is a Sears’ document (pre-existing damage waiver), that the techs print from their computer. The tech wrote the following notes in the description: drain pan is rusted due to clogged drain causing bedroom window to stain with rust. After the customer signed, she demanded that the tech write the following statement: drain pan was not properly installed. She stated that she would not pay for the service if the tech did not. [redacted] then grabbed the pen from the tech and wrote it herself on top of the paper.
The unit requires proper maintenance and care once it is installed. Our records indicate that the customer has never called in for maintenance or a service until April 7, 2016. It is the customer’s responsibility to do maintenance on their unit and replace the filter on a monthly basis or as needed, or as per manufacturer’s specifications. If they do not, the warranty can be void. We recommend that they replace the filter regularly and have the yearly maintenance done to prevent damage to the unit. The customer has no extended warranties or protection plans with Sears. Any services we provide will result in a charge to the customer.
As the investigation has been completed, we are closing our file at this time. Thank you for your time, effort and patience during the investigation process. If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact me at [redacted], or via email at [redacted]

is unfortunate that we failed Ms. [redacted]’s expectations when she recently scheduled a washer repair. We value Ms. [redacted]’s patronage, but can understand her frustration due to the series of events noted in her complaint.  We would like to apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment that Ms. [redacted] may have experienced. We want to assure Ms. [redacted] that her complaint and feedback will give us the opportunity to remedy any problem that may exist and help to improve our service further.  Our records indicate that on August 25, 2015 our technician diagnosed the washer issue and provided Ms. [redacted] with an estimate to repair the washer.  However, the estimate was declined by Ms. [redacted] so the service was not completed.  Ms. [redacted] called again on October 15, 2015 to schedule service again because the washer was not spinning out the water, and an appointment was set for October 19, 2015.  Our technician replaced the water pump which fixed the drainage issue.  When the repair was completed, Ms. [redacted] informed the technician that there was a slow fill issue as well.  The technician informed her that it would need the water inlet replaced and since the repair order was closed she would have to set another service appointment and pay for the part as well.  On December 2, 2015 our technician returned to install the water inlet valve and Ms. [redacted] was charged for the part, but there was no charge for the labor since it was covered under our 90-day service guarantee.  Our technician noted that he tested the washer after the repair was completed and no problem was found.  With that being said, since the washer has been repaired, we have closed our file.Again, we apologize to Ms. [redacted] and appreciate the opportunity to address this matter.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or concerns.Sincerely,Matilda [redacted]Regulatory Complaint SpecialistSears Holdings Corporation[redacted] directMatilda.[redacted]@searshc.com

Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:   I am going to dispute that she conveniently did NOT list all of the service calls I had on this mower.  In the fall of 2014, there was a service call for an OIL leak (which very well could have caused a fire).  I waited at home from 8A to 5P for the technician to show.  He did not come until after 5, when I was not home (due to daughter's ballgame).  He had called and asked me to leave the mower in a location that he could get to it and work on it.  I did as requested.  He left word that he fixed the problem.  As this was late in the mowing season, I only used the mower once or twice more until mowing season began in 2015.  After a couple of times mowing, I noticed the oil leak again.  At that time, I called for another service appointment to be scheduled. That is when they suckered me into purchasing the other contract mentioned, "because the service call itself would cost $97.00" and this would be covered under that contract.  I'm not a genius, but based on the numerous service calls that had already been made for this mower, I figured that I would definitely get my money's worth.  This call was made early to mid-May.  The service appointment was not scheduled until mid-June 16.  The fire occurred June 8.  Perhaps if the service would have been more timely, this entire scenario would not have happened.Due to the numerous service calls, I feel the company should do more than simply try to push this under the rug.  The mower should have lasted longer and is worth more than $500.00. NO business has never been held at fault for going ABOVE and beyond what is expected from any warranty or service contract. I am very disheartened that this company does not care to help its customers.
Sincerely,
Tena [redacted]
