Rooms To Go delivery and customer service nightmare

Delivery window from 2-6. I was home the entire time. At 5pm cst, I still had no delivery. Tried to call customer service, and it was closed! Finally got a person in online support who couldn't connect me to anyone or tell me anything. He says this happens all the time. Finally at 6:30 pm, I got a call from dispatch who said the driver tried to deliver but couldn't get his truck in the neighborhood. He had my number, but she couldn't understand why he never called me (I'm guessing she knew this since she called me, but whatever... Her name was cary, but she refused to give me the driver's name). She also couldn't reschedule and told me I had to wait until the next day to reschedule. Called customer service the first thing the next morning. Spoke with a very indifferent rep who said that she didn't think there was anything she could do to get the meeting rescheduled for the same week (Delivery was supposed to be on a tuesday... ). Told me she'd call me back after basically telling me to calm down. She never called back. Called again 3 hours later, spoke with someone else who basically told me there was no way they could get back to me this week. Tried to cancel order, but was told I had to call another number. Called that number and finally canceled. No one cared. No one apologized. This is the most siloed organization with the most unempowered customer service reps. They truly need to enter the 21st century of customer service.

I’m really sorry to hear about the problems you experienced during your scheduled delivery appointment. I can ensure you that this is not our normal process as the majority of our deliveries are completed on schedule. Should there be any issues as such the dispatch office is to contact the customer to inform them of such.

If you can email us your order details at tellus@roomstogo.com, we would love to look further into your concerns.

Rooms To Go Poor customer service and delivery

We spent around $10K in November 2010 for 3 bedroom sets. The 3 sets were delivered in December 2010 with problems / damages / defects. The damages were noted and we were told someone would call us. After a day or two and no phone calls we made some calls and finally got someone that wanted to set up another appointment for someone to come out and inspect the damages that the delivery drivers reported. Rooms To Go sent someone out a week or so later and he made notes to have the King size bed, dresser w/mirror replaced, daughter's white dresser, and other daughter's black head board and foot board replaced. It took two more weeks to get a delivery date scheduled with a 4 hour window. On delivery date they finally showed up an hour later than the delivery time. The driver asked me to sign a waiver form relieving him from any damage they might do to my walls. I told him he was out of his mind if he thought I was going to sign that. When they took the furniture off the truck they didn't have all the parts to put the king size bed together and the dresser had indents in the wood in several places. They brought a white headboard and black footboard to replace my daughter's black queen size bed. I asked what was I supposed to do with two different colors when they both were supposed to be black. The white dresser was damaged right out of the box. I refused the entire shipment and called customer service first thing the next morning and was asked by them why didn't I keep the mirror for the king size dresser. I asked her what was I supposed to put it on being that the dresser was damaged. All the damages were called in during the delivery by the drivers and again by me the next morning. Afer fighting with customer service another delivery date was made for yesterday 5 Feb 2011 between 10 and 2. The drivers showed up 2 hours late with the same exact furniture I had refused weeks prior. Customer service was called and told us they would not schedule another delivery because we had a large order and already refused it twice. It wouldn't be refused if they made sure the order was correct in the first place. What does a person have to do to get what they paid for. They may have some great furniture but it seems like all the good stuff is on the show room floor. They don't have to worry about getting anymore of my hard earned $$$$$'s.

Rooms To Go Horrible furniture and customer service

Rooms to go is the absolute worst furniture store. I have called to set up our service request 3 times and told them exactly what time I was available and every time the automative message calls me to give me my 4 hour time frame its not when I said I would be there. The reps tell you that they cannot accomidate your schedule by asking for the tech to come any time after 1pm, so how are you suppposed to pay for your furniture if you cant work a job that pays you money? These people are horrible. We have spent over $6000 on furniture and we still need some other pieces... that I can promise will not be bought there. We've had our sectional for 4 months and it is broken in 3 places. The fabric on the matching glider is coming apart at the seams. I have never spent so much money on crap before in my entire life. I can't wait for the service tech to actually get there. After reviewing other compliants, I hear they don't do anything to fix the problems either and the company will not replace the broken items. I'm so very disgusted with rooms to go!

Rooms To Go Customer satisfaction a joke

Purchased a sofa - loveseat - chair set from rooms to go delivered by the end of november 2010. Within a month the cushions were breaking down, so contacted them to review product. The frame is fine, but the substandard foam they use in their cushions causes my new sofa and loveseat to look years rather than a month old. First tech came out and verbally agreed that the cushions should not be in that condition after such a short period of time but when I checked on the status of my warranty case, tech had indicated frame was fine and nothing further should be done since it is normal wear and tear. I appealed and requested a second tech to come out, who made no promises. He also agreed with the first tech. I had to take my cushions to a real upholsterer to put in the proper density foam so that the cushions would wear better. I agree that cushions should break down a bit over time, but this was over the course of one month. Rooms to go will not take back the furniture either. This is a shoddy company with shoddy business practices and I had to learn my lesson the hard financial way. It is not high end furniture anyway, so my expectations on not on par with ethan allen quality, but you would think the stuff would wear better, at least for a year. I will never buy furniture from them again and urge all to do the avoid them. It is landfill furniture, nothing more. Way to go, rooms to go. You have yet another unsatisfied customer to feather your cap. Does cindy crawford know she lends her name to such crappy furniture?

Rooms To Go Salesman lied

We bought a living room set from the Fort Worth store. The lamp that went with the set was not in stock at the time of the purchase. We bought the set in October of 2010 and the salesman told us the

lamp would be sent to our home by no later than Dec. 8th. Not only did we not get the lamp on time. We were called on January 8th and told the lamp was at the Dallas warehouse and we should pick it up there. When we tried to tell the lady at the warehouse it was supposed to be shipped to us, she got very rude. When we called the store in Fort Worth that sold us the furniture, they were not only rude, but refused to help us in any way. To have the lamp delivered would cost us a third of what it is actually worth. Our only option is to drive over 100 miles to pick up the lamp or to have the cost of the lamp refunded for store purchase. No way! Never again! Rooms To Go will lie to you make a sell and if you ever need assistance, forget it! They are some of the rudest people I have ever come in contact with! Please find another store to buy from! If not, I promise you will regret it.

Rooms To Go Dangerous product

I purchased a recliner sofa set from Rooms To Go. Last week my wife was sitting on the sofa with the recliner extended and she got off the sofa from the side. She cut her leg when she got off. She had to get a tetanus shot for her cuts.The metal bars under the recliner are sharp and not filed down correctly. When I complained about it, the service technician they sent over said that it was her fault. She should have closed the recliner before getting up. Rooms To Go made no effort to rectify the situation. I'm not happy that they sell dangerous products and make no effort to correct the error. On top of it they blame the customer for "improper usage". Very unprofessional behavior especially after spending thousands of dollars on the product.

I’m sorry to hear about the problems that you are having with the reclining sofa, of the injury experienced. However, it is very important to use the furniture as it is designed. This includes closing the footrests before getting off of the sofa.

It was IMPROPER USAGE! Had the cut happened while the recliner was being used properly I could see and would agree to your complaint but if you pointed a gun at yourself and shot your self would you then sue the maker of the gun because of YOUR OWN NEGLIGENCE? So many people place complaints and trash companies for injuries or because they feel they got ripped off costing consumers more and more money every day! The worst part about it is you know you had to have looked back and said to yourself ROOMS TO GO CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR NEGLIGENCE. Yet here you are trashing a company for something YOU DID! Why cant people just accept responsibility for their own actions and leave it at that! READ BEFORE YOU SIGN, IF YOU DONT UNDERSTAND ASK AND USE THINGS PROPERLY! REALLY PEOPLE ITS NOT THAT HARD!

Rooms To Go Horrible customer service (warranty on repairs)

I purchased a sofa that costs me $1600 from Rooms to go, the in-store service was typical but all trouble started after I purchased an extended warrenty from them & had my sofa delivered. Upon delivery my sofa was delivered with a broken leg, they asked if they could just fix it instead of bringing a whole new piece, beings I had waited forever to receive my delivery & it was such an inconvinence in the first place I decided to go with the option to fix it. As time went on I had to have it fixed 3 more times, (along with several other peices that were never resolved either) now after they couldnt fix it they are suppossed to replace it due to my warrenty, well it never got replaced, I called several times to have different techs come out, half the time they were too lazy to the job, or they lied about things, I even had one guy I waited for all saturday to come & he never showed, when I called to find out what was going on, cust service told me his report said I wasnt home, this last event they agreed to send someone out for a "courtesy" in home repair even thou my warrenty is expired now (how convinent) because all the damages were reported under the warrentty they just never did their job, when the guy came he said it was unrepairable & they would replace my sofa, so he didnt even try to fix it, when I got the follow up call they told me they never agreed for him to come out on those terms, only for my stain issues which are still under warrenty (that wasnt resolved either) they also told me his report read completely different from what he told me *LIES* so I asked to speak to management & the lady told me she was management, I've never known the management to answer the cust service lines when u call *MORE LIES* The conclusion I came up with is that rooms to go hires cheap laborers who dont want to work, dont know how to do their job, & will lie on their reports to benefit rooms to go so they dont have to follow thru with a warrenty repair, the on phone cust. service operaters are just plain rude & are NOT there to help the consumer, I could go on & on about the terrible service, or the service I DIDNT receive! They DO NOT & WILL NOT honor the warrenty they will just lie, scam, & give you the run around until your warrenty is up! Then basically say screw you in so many words, Whenever I tried to speak to a manager on cust service line they kept me on hold for 30 min to an hour then came back to say they were busy & would call me back which NEVER happened or they would simply hang up in my face when they seen I wasnt going to hang up! This is the absolute worst company/cust service I have ever dealt with in my 30 yrs of exsistence, BUYER BEWARE, THESE ARE SCAM ARTISTS, YOU WILL NOT BE A VALUED CUSTOMER, I CANT SEE THEM STAYING IN BUSINESS IN THE FUTURE! DO NOT PURCHASE HERE UNLESS YOU ENJOY GETTING COMPLETELY RIPPED OFF! Please repost to avoid other consumers spending their hard earned money & getting completely ripped off I now have a $1600 sofa not even 2 years old that looks like a piece of broken up crapt! Im highly pissed off, this post is the only resolution I get in this situation!

Rooms To Go Horrible delivery service

I ordered a sofa and loveseat from rooms to go. The time frame of delivery was between 2pm-6pm. I waited home all day in case they came early. Yeah right! At 6:40, I finally received the first call stating that the delivery would be made between 7 & 8 pm. (So much for 2-6pm, & I missed a 7pm appointment that I had scheduled). At 9pm, I had given up. I was told earlier that deliveries are never made after 9pm cst. I put my two young boys to bed, and I also fell asleep. At 9:45 pm, almost 10 o'clock at night, my doorbell rings. My whole house was woken up, and they were actually delivering my furniture at 10 pm! The delivery guys said they had 18 deliveries in all, over 80 items, in 3 cities... All for two men in one day! Furthermore, they still had 2 more deliveries to make after mine! The supervisors at rooms to go acted concerned on the phone, but never bothered to return my call or my delivery fee as promised. I was told I could receive 25 dollars off! What an insult! I will never again order anything from rooms to go!

Rooms To Go Horrible experience

We went into the store on 11/27/10 in search of a new bedroom. We actually love our current bed but not the rest of the room. Most of the current furniture that we have was purchased new in 1989. The bed was added a couple of years ago from a different set. It is dated, but solid. Unfortunately, it is not uniform (pieces didn't come from a set and therefore don't go together; different woods, finishes, etc). Thinking we might keep our existing bed, we were very indecisive about what we were looking for, etc. The salesman that helped us was patient and understanding. He did not pressure us into anything. We actually asked him at one point to give us time to look and talk among ourselves and we would find him when we had made up our minds (neither of us like high pressure sales people). He respected our wishes and left us alone. He did not even come backto check on us. I have nothing but good things to say about him.

After awhile, made up our minds and found our salesman. We piecemealed a bedroom together, everything except the bed. We did not select a 'package' deal on the entire room. We ordered a dresser/mirror, two night stands, a chest, and media center. Again, everything EXCEPT the bed. I had a nagging feeling about the quality of the furniture that we had picked out. Call me weird, but I often mentally judge the quality of furniture by how the drawers slide on the rails. Our current bedroom furniture is North Carolina built and solid as a tank. It has lasted 20+ years and will last at least another 20 more. The RTG furniture that we selected was rough and uneven on the tracks. The drawers looked and felt like they were built from 1/8" pressboard. It just felt CHEAP. Yet, our desire to have something new over rode that naggin feeling.

In the process, we found a new living room to boot. However, we didn't like the tables and lamps that came as part of the room.

We left the store with a partial order entered into the system but made it clear that we needed to finalize our plans on the tables and lamps. The total at that point (sans taxes, delivery, etc) was over $6000+.

Our credit card for the 'deposit' (to the tune of $550) was run that night. I did not know until later that it was 'run' (as in charged). I thought that would all go through once the order was completed.

We returned to the store a week later to complete the order. We had our 4 year old with us since we thought it would only take a few minutes (less than 30) to make some changes to the existing order. We had decided on different tables, etc to go with the living room furniture package. The tables that we selected were more expensive than what was included in the set so this was of course 'allowed'. Additionally, we had changed our minds on the bedroom furniture, deciding to get rid of our existing bed (selling on Craigslist, etc with the hopes to offset the additional money being spent at RTG) and going with an entire bedroom PACKAGE including the bed, but from a different set than we had originally choosen from.

At the time we went in (and still a current offer at the time of this writing), RTG is offering TV packages (which are actually gift cards to a different retailer to be used towards the purchase of a TV (or anything else)) that become valid 5 days after you take receipt of your furniture from RTG. We also need to replace our refrigerator so we were going to use this towards the purchase of a new refrigerator). The 'living room' we initially selected qualified for this promotion, so we had already been issued a card (not valid yet - but we had physical possession of the card). The new bedroom package that we moved to on our return visit also qualified (and offset the cost of the extra furniture). Because the gift card from the living room package had already been issued at the time of our initial visit, RTG was ADAMANT about updating the current order rather than deleting it and starting fresh with a new order.

At some point, the manager came over and pretty much booted our salesman who had patiently worked with us for about 4 hours during both the visits and took over the order update entry. The store manager treated our salesman in a very verbally demeaning way, which was quite embaraasing for both of us. There was problems deleting pieces, adding packages, changing this piece for that piece. At one point, the system started asking for the entry person (who at this point was the store manager) to swipe an HHGregg card, which had no relavancy to this order and which no one could figure out why it was asking for the HHGregg card or how to get around it.

3 HOURS later, I left the store again. My wife had already left with the 4 yr old to get food and a change of atmosphere. If you don't take the 'package' room as is, expect MAJOR hassels making adds/changes/deletions. If you have a order entered that has to be updated, expect even more MAJOR hassels. Their system doesn't seem to like doing anything 'outside the "box"' (meaning their pre-packaged sets). I thought the order had pretty much been completed at that point, and I left the store with a second invoice including an updated (increased) final price. The manager told me they would resolve the issue and complete the order later. I just thought this was a technicality. Basically, I left with the understanding that the paperwork that I had in my hand, which I had to sign 3 different times for, was FINAL and there was just a technical issue preventing the order from being submitted.

We had picked different tables (at a higher price than the ones in the set) and therefore the total went up as expected. I left the store with an updated invoice of about $6600 (again, sans taxes, delivery, etc). The difference in the invoices was about what we expected doing rough mental math.

I got a call the following week from the delivery schedule confirming our delivery date of 12/17.

On Monday, 12/13, I received a call from the sales person telling me that I had a balance due of almost another $700 dollars over the updated invoice that needed to be taken care of ASAP, otherwise, there would be no delivery as expected in four days.

I called the store but of course both the sales person as well as the manager who tried to update the order were both off. The manager that I did speak with did not know any of the details other than they needed me to take care of the 'balance owed'.

I went into the store today, 12/14. Our salesman was off but the original manager who updated (or tried to update) the order explained that they had used an incorrect SKU number from a different state, which is why the order was not taking in the system. They re-entered the order on Sat 12/4 after my 2nd visit and had a new total (not what I left the store with on 12/3) and I needed to pay the difference. After a fairly heated exchanged, with several uses of words and phrases like "unprofessional", "pitful customer service", etc. on my behalf, nothing changed. There was obviously no wiggle room. He made no apologies. He offered no concessions. To make matters worse, he has HORRIBLE interpersonal skills and could only pass blame onto the original salesman (even though he was the one who booted the salesman from the computer terminal and entered the updates himself) and make statements like "I'm trying to tell you" and "I'll be glad to deliver what is on the original order on Friday, but it is not what is on THIS (pointing to the new invoice with the $700 price increase).

I could tell my ONLY options were to cough up the difference or cancel the entire order. I chose the latter.

My wife was expecting new furniture for Christmas. It is NOT happening now.

I feel bad that our original salesman will not earn a commission that I think he earned and still deserves.

My charge card was run two weeks ago for a deposit to a non-finalized order which has since changed.

I had more credit 'extended' (which I will NOT use) with Rooms to Go which will make it difficult to go to a REAL furniture store and try and match what we had picked out.

But, personally it was the right decision to make. I feel like I have been victim of bait and switch and then deceptive selling or just pure gross incompetence (one or the other), all the while still worried that I was about to be in debt for well over $7000 (again, not including taxes and delivery, and NOT including the $550 deposit already charged over two weeks earlier after our first visit on 11/27) for furniture that my gut instinct told me was CHEAP and will NOT LAST. We would probably still be making payments on it long after it had fallen apart, broken etc. After reading the other reviews here, I think my gut instinct was right as usual.

Follow your instincts. I wish I had been smart enough to follow my own advice. Fortunately, bad, no, HORRIBLE business practices and customer service saved me from a very expensive mistake.

Rooms To Go Bad delivery, customer service, very unprofessional

Where do I start? Well, I ordered a seven piece living room set from rooms to go and my delivery date was Wednesday Dec. 15, 2011. They called and said they woyld be at my home between the hrs of 7am to 11 am. They came at 8:30 am which was perfectly okay. I ordered a sofa, loveseat, two end tables and two lamps. Well, they charge a 99 dollar delivery and set up fee so they were suppose to set up my cofee table and two endtables. That didn't happen! The represetative who set up the delivery called back to check with us for quality assurance asked me if everything was okay? I said no my tables were left unassembled and in boxes. She saud they were suppose to set those up. She then called them and they said they were in route to clarksville, tn which is an hr away from nashville. So she calls me back and said they would be back at 3pm to finish the job. At this point my mom and I are mad. So we wait till 3 still no rooms to go. We wait till 5 still no rooms to go. So we call back and the place is now closed. So my mom and I are convinced they are not coming back mind you my tables are still in boxes.So 7:50 pm rolls a round and it's a guy supposedly representing roomg to go. He came in his personal vehicle! I live alone I wasn't about to let some guy in my house that I don't know! I wanted a refund because this service was ridiculous. So I had to assemble the tables myself two days later! I want a refund but, I called them and they said that it's nothing they can do.

ROOMS TO GO IS THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! I would rather go to Pottery Barn and pay double the price, but at least they will do what they say!
I was extremely patient for 1 hour while my salesman tried to help three different people - I should have been in and out in 20 minutes because I already knew what I wanted...
After an hour we finally had the deal done it was to be delivered today
3.7.2012 (I watched him click the button for today) - It's on my receipt that I signed... so I called customer service this morning to find out which 4 hour window I was in for delivery...only to get the person on the other end to say, we see your order but there is no delivery date set! WHAT? Is it just going to sit there in your warehouse forever, until I call and say I didn't get it? Now the first available ship time is over a week from now...So guess who gets to explain to her three year old that his bunk beds will not be here today (after I have pumped it up so much- he was so excited this morning it was all he could talk about) crush his little heart...not rooms to go, MOM! I don't care if someone from the store or the warehouse has to load it up on their personal truck and drive it from Atlanta to Birmingham but YOU NEED TO MAKE IT RIGHT! I knew I should have gone somewhere else! PLEASE DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I DID - Go to another store, deals are everywhere, and find someone who will actually do what they promise - You just lost a brand advocate RTG!

Lottab2004 - the occasional tables you purchase at Rooms To Go are customer assembly. Our drivers are asked to set them up as a courtesy if they have the time to complete that with completing their route that day. Your sales receipt should even state customer assembly required.
If we do send a representative out to set up the tables after the delivery occurs - it is not uncommon for them to drive a smaller vehicle as their truck is not necessary and with the cost of fuel - it is more economical to drive a vehicle with better gas mileage. I am sorry that you were not comfortable with this.
The delivery charge you pay does not include set up of the tables, therefore, a refund of the charges is not available in this situation. If you would like us to look into this further or provide more specific information, please email us your purchase information to tellus@roomstogo.com.

Rooms To Go Employment

A retail floor Sales Professional, as I have become to define it these last four decades, is the person having an enduring and relentless will to accept and persevere the repeated agony of customer’s disdain and impersonal rejection only to be occasionally eclipsed by the ecstasy of a consummation of a sale or going home blank, periodically followed by a cancellation thereof, whilst cognizant that you must be masochistic enough to endure the same experience numerous times each workday. Yet, despite all of this, you best remain enthusiastic with a smile on your face and the fortitude to voluntarily relive this cycle numerous times throughout the day.

The aforementioned notwithstanding, the Retail Floor Sales Professional is accountable for corporate set sales goals, appeasing the customer in any sales related issue and assuming blame in most cases when they are unhappy with your product or end result- regardless of who is to blame. The Sales Professional must sell the added products or services demanded of them without concern of its efficacy or usefulness. Failure to meet those requirements will find you revisiting the “Company Trainer” who sells less and probably knows even less than you as well. Retail Sales Professionals, more often than not, are managed by individuals incapable of accomplishing the very same goals, rules and demands required of you, (i.e. do as I say, not as I do syndrome).

You must have a thorough understanding of all your products, its features, advantages and benefits, aware of its respective availability and able to convey all of this information to the consumer at a moment's notice. You must stay current and adhere to all company policies, floor rules and front office procedures, and while you digest all of this, you best remain keenly aware of your surroundings so as not to allow your customer or you become prey for the vultures that are salivating and perching close by waiting to devour that customer you felt so sure would remain loyal.

Finally, you best document most conversations, invoices or quotes otherwise customers will throw you under the bus without thinking twice, you always being the culprit and at fault despite them suffering from "Terminal Convenient Amnesia". Remember customers hear only what they want to hear. You NEVER win, they NEVER lose.

As a Sales Representative (not in retail because that is not what I choose to do), it is the same in all sales positions. I have to say that we have bought furniture at RTG 3 different times (used the same guy 2 of the 3 times, but he was not there the 3rd time). We went in to RTG on Friday to find "our guy, " who we were told no longer works at RTG. We said ok, and let the guy who originally greeted us at the door show us the matresses around the store. We said ok, and promised that if we decided to go with the matress from RTG, then we would find him. We discussed the promotion of a 40inch TV that came with a king size matress. We mentioned that a 40 inch might be too large for our current bedroom furniture, and he assured us that it would be a giftcard and we could buy whatever size we needed and use the rest of the giftcard for another purchase at Best Buy. We left to do more research, but decided (after measuring our furniture) that it was a good deal. We went back on Saturday and tried the matress out again. We found "our new guy, " and told him we were going to purchase it. He comes over to the matress and says, "oh well it will come with a 32 inch not the 40 inch." When I asked to talk to a manager to honor the advertised deal, the manager was a JERK! I will be reporting this to the BBB because it was the old bait and switch. We ended up still buying the matress because it was not "the new guys" fault that his manager is a jerk etc. However, on our way out, who do we see...OUR original guy! I will NEVER go back! If your company gave better customer service, then maybe you would have a better day. Besides, you don't have to work there...I'm sure there are several of the 1000's that are unemployed that would love to have your job.

Rooms To Go Didn't deliver on time

On July 30, 2010 I ordered a dinette set w/buffet. I was told I could not get delivery until Oct 8. I agreed to wait but asked at that time if they could not meet the delivery date could I cancel my order and receive my $255 deposit back. I was told that would not be a problem.

On Oct 6 I got a recorded message stating my delivery would arrive on Oct 8

On Oct 7 I received a call telling my my order could not be delivered because each piece was damaged. They wanted to reschedule delivery for Oct 22. I then spoke to the manager and was told it could not be delivered because it had not been received from overseas. Obviously someone was misinformed because I'm SURE they would NEVER LIE about it.

I told the manager I wanted to cancel the order and get a refund and was told he would issue a store credit. A store credit is not acceptable since I will not buy from Rooms to Go again. The manager was pretty rude and we hung up.

I called again on Oct 8 and spoke to a different manager, Kevin, who was much easier to deal with. I stated my case and asked if he would find out the real reason my delivery was not made and said I would be willing to wait if they were willing to negotiate with me. Today is Oct 11 and I'm still waiting for an answer. I'm hoping I don't have to go to the store to get someone to listen to me and give me an answer.

Rooms To Go Rude customer service

We were charged a late charge on a bill that we did not receive until after the due date. When my girlfriend called the customer service was rude to her. When I called they were both rude and aggressive. They offered very little help and they actually had the nerve to raise their voices. Not that it would be right to do so, but they treated us like delinquents who never made payments; We have made every payment only they had processed the payment three after the due date. If you enjoy rude beligerent customer service then rooms to go is the furniture store for you.

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I purchased a living room set from Rooms To Go in the beginning of August 2010. The furniture was delivered around the middle of august. I called customer service after looking over the furniture and advised them that the loveseat was cracked and there were little nicks on the backside of the couch. They said that they had to send a technician out to look...

Rooms To Go Delivered used furniture sold as new

I ordered a new bedroom set with dresser, bed and mattress, end tables... They were delivered wrapped in plastic wrap, when the plastic was taken off, the smell of mildew permeated the house... You could smell it when you came in the front door! The bottom of the dresser had dog teeth marks in the feet, there were children's school papers in the dresser drawers, the mattressess smelled!

They said they couldn't come out for 2 weeks to pick this trash up, I said I didn't care when they picked it up since it would be in my front yard with signs on it... They got it the next day...

Do not waste your time buying from this company... And according to their former employees, the fabric protector service they rip you off for is a total scam... You pay for nothing, nothing...

Rooms To Go Customer service and delivery

Excuse my French but Rooms to Go in the biggest piece of s**t furniture store around. They could care less about their customers. The story begins...

I eagerly walk into a Rooms to Go store to purchase the Belmar Gentleman's Chest in green as an accent to my bedroom decor. The saleswoman was great, in and out, $700+ paid in cash. I inform the saleswoman that I would be back to purchase a furniture set for my son.

The furniture was delivered on time but to my surprise there was a huge hole at the top of the chest. Being the nice person that I am, I saved the delivery man the trouble and bringing the broken furniture up two flights of stairs and denied the delivery.

As soon as the delivery man leaves, I receive a call from Rooms to Go asking how the delivery went. I explain to the customer service rep that the piece of furniture was broken and I denied the delivery. She then informs me that the delivery man has told her the same. So, thinking that we are all on the same page, I ask for another delivery date. She drops the bomb explaining that I must wait 48 hours until I can schedule for a new piece of furniture and that I should have wasted the delivery man time by having him bring the furniture into my home.

48 hours later I call to schedule for a new delivery date and the my pleasure (sarcasm) it will be another week until I can have my furniture. Keep in mind that had my money on the spot. Yay! It is delivery day; I wonder what awaits me now. This time the delivery man (dm) is late but at least the chest does not have a hole on top. The furniture is brought up and assembled. Then, the dm leaves to get the door for the furniture. Well, Rooms to Go will never let you down, the door is not in the delivery truck! Learning from the previous experience, I kept the chest without the door.

By this time I should add RTG customer service to my Fav 5. I explain the door situation, ask that the door be sent UPS because I am not taking of work to wait for a door. Customer service says they will send the door UPS.
Today the door comes but I did not know that the UPS man wore a RTG shirt! Luckily my brother was home, for I was at work trying to make up for the money wasted with RTG. Well guess what else this time, the doors here but there is not hardware to assemble to door! Now I know that my brother a logical person and doing the logical thing he denied the delivery. So yes, I will have to wait another 48 hours until I can schedule for a new door.

I hate to break my word to that nice saleswoman but I will not be back, also I will tell any and everyone not to purchase furniture from RTG. I am a hardworking, young, single mother, I do not fork over $700+ to just anyone. I am disappointed with the way Rooms to Go conducts business.

Rooms To Go Dangerous fumes

Not Rooms to Go - Rooms to WAIT. Minimum 7-14 day delivery wait at Baybrook Texas store.

The Taffy twin/full loft bed with stairs and built-in dresser emits horrendous fumes, making me ill, eyes water, throat burn, congestion, flu-like symptoms. Must leave room windows open and bottom of door sealed with a towel to keep fumes from rest of house. Afraid it might be formaldehyde from China-made pressed wood products. Store says no formaldehyde, will send a technician to review - in TWO weeks. Meanwhile, I'm afraid to let my grandkids into "their" room when they visit.

Damaged headboard and upper bunk safety rail this bedroom set; damaged headboard and media center other bedroom. Nightstand on back order, delivery set 2 weeks after rest of furniture. Now we discover that delivery driver did NOT notify customer service about damages and arrange for exchanges to come with the nightstand as he promised - now further delay and back orders for damaged pieces.

$2600 at Rooms to Wait - the last money we'll spend there unless they turn this deal completely around!

Rooms To Go Causes property damage

As of August 3rd it will be three years since the Rooms To Go delivery truck rolled onto my carport and caused damages. They have ignored us...stalled us and sent out countless adjusters to try not to pay this claim. SE Delivery is a Corp but it has the same address asRooms To Go in Seffner Florida. Here is the scoop. They hire a high paid Attorney now named Brendon Stuhan that graduated from Virginia Law School that just curiously has a boat load of Seaman Family Members as Alumni and donators to the College. Of course he practices in Pennsylvania which is where the Current CEO Jeffrey Seaman's family is originally from and are Quakers. Mr. Seaman's grandfather Julius and his brother took over the business after his father died and this has been the family pattern. Now Jeffrey's cousins and wife are part of Finco Financial Corp and ETI Financial Corp which is insurance premium financing and they are also leaving a path of lies, deceit and rip offs behind them.

Rooms To Go Damaged furniture/bad service

After mos. of searching for the perfect "big girl" bed for our 5 yr old, we decided on a twin/full step bunkbed with a chest of drawers from Rooms To Go Kids. We specified wanting white and pd additional for white. Our salesperson, who I just learned is Store Mgr, mislead us on the color. She showed us other white furniture in the same collection as bunkbed so naturally that was color we were expecting.

After waiting for 1 1/2 wks for delivery, bed was damaged when shipped as well as being damaged by delivery guys. The delivery guys also negligently left sharp furniture tacks that are over 1 inch long attached to chest side of bunkbed which my 5 yr old and 1 yr old found! Thank God they were not hurt! The bed is also not the true white we were expecting, however, is a poor attempt at a whitewash.

Called our salesperson about the problems with damage and color. She then backpeddaled about the color and stated we needed to contact customer serv. for damage. Upon calling cust. serv, I was informed a tech could come out to repair in 1 1/2 wks. I stated unacceptable due to just rec'g bed damaged after paying almost $2000 for the bed. I was then told a whole new piece would be delivered in 1 wk, however, due to all of our trouble the mgr I was speaking to was checking to see what our options were as we can't even paint the bed the true white we want without voiding our warranty. She was supposed to call back. After never rec'g that call, I called twice more and it was decided a whole new bed would be sent and tagged "red alert". The label was supposed to make sure all pieces were thoroughly examined before being shipped.

Our delivery was for yesterday, 7/17/10 between 2pm - 6pm. I rec'd a call Fri, 7/16/10, stating route had grown and so our delivery time had been r/s to between 4pm - 8pm. I told the cust. serv. rep that was unacceptable & my time needed to stay between 2pm -6pm. She said she would have driver call when on his way. I rec'd a call Sat, 7/17/10 at 5:35pm from a rude cust. serv. rep stating driver running late, had just got to town & would be here very soon and way before 8pm. The driver called at 7:20pm stating would be here in 25 min. They showed up at 8pm. After inspecting the steps part of bed, the piece was damaged worse than the one I already have. Obviously I refused delivery! So much for their "RED ALERT" plan!

Let's see how many more times I can be lied to tomorrow since they're closed today! I will never go back to Rooms To Go or RTG Kids and will do everything in my power to educate as many people as possible to stay away from that company. Apparently, they've made enough money that they don't care about quality or customer service!
