I am a retired nurse and grandmother on a restricted budget. I was very excited to purchase patio furniture from Macy’s on September 8. The delivery of my furniture was delayed. Furniture finally arrived November 3, but instead of one table and 4 chairs I only received one table and one chair. On November 17 I was informed by email the rest of my order could not be delivered! I called and was on hold with Adrianna, who was professional and tried to be helpful, for one hour and 10 minutes. She informed me the most discount I could receive was 10% if I wanted to purchase another patio set, I could have my patio furniture returned, or I would try to speak with a manager. After the long wait the manager was not available. The following day, November 18, after waiting on hold 40 minutes I spoke to the manager Gina. I was informed even though Macy’s has my patio furniture advertised on line for a “Black Friday Special†it is not available on the West coast but there were 3 available in the Chicago area, she might be able to get them the beginning of the new year. This was not acceptable. Isn’t this “Bait and Switch�†Gina also said instead of the 10% discount she would be able to increase the discount to 12%. The amount was not great in my opinion. By this time I was very upset and Gina was becoming loud and unprofessional. She could have cared less if I, the customer, was happy with the outcome of the phone call….and I was not. I needed to make Macy’s aware of my very unpleasant shopping experience.
I still do not have my money back that I have paid for the patio furniture. And, I have to wait until the 25th for them to pick up the one chair and the table which angers me.
Claimed loss: I lost 3 months of time that I haven't been able to sit on my patio.
Desired outcome: I would like a Maceys gift card to any department but furniture.
