I have shopped at P.C. Richard & Son for years. Thankfully, I never before had an occasion to use my warranties but this time I did and this is where it all goes down hill. In 2016, after i lost my house in a fire, I purchased a suite of Kitchen Aid Appliances which were actually delivered in 2017 when my new home was done being built. From the beginning, the refrigerator did not work properly. It was a french door type and the top refrigerator was always getting warm which was spoiling my food. From the beginning, PC Richards own service techs told me this problem was a known issue with this particular model. I asked them several times for a new refrigerator but they just kept repairing it. Now, 3 years later, they FINALLY agreed to replace it. I purchased a 10 year extended warranty which included replacing the model if it was deemed unrepairable. To my dismay I was informed that the exact same refrigerator I had, (newer model that did not have the issue at hand) was $500 more than what I paid and I would have to pay the difference! Not only that but I was also told that although I have 7 years left on my warranty, once they replaced the refrigerator, that warranty would be null and void. I was told if i wanted a new extended warranty for the new refrigerator, I would have to pay for it which was another $300+ dollars. When I questioned why I would have to pay more to REPLACE the same refrigerator and buy an extended warranty again, I was told that's the way their warranties work which no one tells you while their selling it to you at the store. I was also told if I died and had a life insurance policy, the life insurance policy is not transferable and their warranty isn't either! So what is a person to do? After calling their customer service division for many days and speaking with anyone that would listen, I decided to email their corporate office. I was told that I would have to work out the price of the fridge with the store but they would allow me to transfer my existing 7 year warranty to the new fridge. I then contacted the store and was told that the same model was not in stock and would not be in for several weeks/months and to pick something else. Since all of my food was spoiling constantly, I had no choice but to get a different model. I chose a Whirlpool french door model. I had whirlpool in the past and never had an issue so i thought i would be safe. This model was $300 less than my other fridge and they would not give me the difference back. I find this ridiculous since they wanted me to pay them another $500 for a more expensive one that was truly a replacement. They came and delivered by new model a week later BUT the 2 delivery guys who came were very unprofessional. I repeatedly told them they would have to take the doors off of my original refrigerator to fit it down my steps (I have a high ranch) and out the front door. They would not listen to anything i said and ultimately damaged by railings and ended up having to take the doors off the fridge to get it out the front door anyway. I did not notice the damage to the railing until after they left because they then carried the new one up the stairs and leaned it back and damaged my wall! I saw one of the men rubbing the wall but he said nothing to me. I then walked over and saw the damage and pointed out what he did. He then said "it happens, the fridge is 450 lbs. Sorry". I was completely frustrated and just wanted to cry. He then had the audacity to tell me to write "great job" on the receipt. I told him i would do nothing like that. I proceeded to write "good job, damaged wall, heavy fridge" (i was being wise) He was not happy i wrote this and proceeded to leave. I tried calling PC Richard immediately, only to be put on hold, with a recording about limited staff due to covid 19. No one ever came to the phone and then the phone just disconnected!!!! This happened many times that day. I ended up speaking with no one. I then contacted the customer service division by email again. explained the damage and was sent an email telling me I have to have more people come into my home to give them damage estimates. ( I am scared to have more people come in due to Covid). Oh, and did I mention that an awful sound came out of my new fridge which sounds like a freight train??? This happens once per hour for several seconds. I contacted them about that also. I have had ENOUGH! Several hundred dollars of food spoilage in 3 years; the damage to my wall, the damage to my railing and now my new fridge sounding like a freight train I am completely disgusted with them and their service. All of their commercials claim they are reliable! Really? Want to make this right PC Richard? Swap out my new freight train fridge for a new Kitchen aid model when it comes it and ACTUALLY REPLACE IT without additional charges and take care of my damages! Be reliable as you claim to be!!! read more
