Unethical behaviour
My name is Sheriza Ramkissoon, and I am very very very disgusted by Big Lots online service. I have been trying to order online two weeks now and I have been unsuccessful.I have been given a set of ridiculous reasons such as my address not matching my bank card address, I am not purchasing for personal use etc.
Big lots have flagged my bank card and have refuse to let me purchase items online. I was told that the items can not be purchase because it is not for personal use. If I am purchasing one item each (only three items in my cart) how can they assume I am not purchasing for personal use. I am NOT buying TWENTY OF THE ITEMS.
The items are not available in a store close by and therefore my only means of getting these items are online purchase.
Their customer service sucks and I will like this matter to be investigated.
Please note that this is considered unfair and unethical and I will take this matter further if necessary.
Thank you
Sheriza Ramkissoon

Billing Stay away from Big Lots credit cards
I payed in full my credit card in September through the automated system that let's you pay the full amount. Today I got a call saying that I owed 77.00 because my I missed 50 cents and that was late. I canceled my card and closed the account because I felt scammed I never received a statement saying I owed 50 cents. It was ridiculous that they would try to get money that wasn't owed
Desired outcome: Better costumer service and to warn people about this dirty business
Horrible customer service
My husband and I were going to buy a gazebo that was in our local store for $1199.99. The castle pines hardtop gazebo from broyhill; however, when the employee checked it was not in stock. We drove from salem to albany and it was not in that store…or any store in oregon near us. We were told they did not know when or how many they would be getting. Okay, I...

I purchased this recliner, maybe a month ago, I am a senior and twice it has tipped me over, and now the fabric is coming out from the seat, its only me sitting in it, no roughhousing etc. I am very disappointed as years ago I bought a love seat and sofa from you all and it lasted me for ever. I did not get no warranty on this recliner as I was sure it would be a good product, I am very dissatisfied. I purchased it from Elizabethtown KY store, I probably do not even have the receipt any longer as I felt sure I would not need it.
Service
Looked on line for Wilson & Fisher Copper 3x LED Solar 10-Piece Pathway Light. The Big Lot in Lake Havasu City AZ was suppose to have 3. When we got there none was on the shelf and the staff claimed they had 6 in the back that was in a recent shipment and they would call us. Never happened so we ordered it to pick up curbside and the email I received said the have NONE ! Really?
Desired outcome: To receive 2 boxes of Wilson & Fisher Copper 3x LED Solar 10-Piece Pathway Lights By Wilson & Fisher
I have been attempting to get a defective recliner replaced since beginning of July. So far, no real response after multiple emails and phone calls (Also EXTENDED time in hold). One of the 2 recliners we purchased does not return to upright position. I have also contacted Lane furniture and was told to go threw the retail store. I purchased them online.
What can I do to get satisfaction on this claim?

I'm a longtime, frequent shopper at all of your locations. However, today I was at the Charleston, WV store. My check was declined. As I've had issues with my bank at your stores before I asked for my check to be tried again. Donna, service lead, was very rude. As she was walking toward me she informed me loudly "if it bounced there's nothing we can do". As if that situation isn't embarrassing enough, I appreciate her including the rest of the customers. I will never shop that store again even though it's less than 1 mile from my home. She then asked me to call certegy myself due to the fact she'd been on hold 6 minutes
Desired outcome: Retrain manager in customer service
Rude service
I shopped at Big Lots on April 4, 2021, at approximately 3 o'clock 406 E Martintown Road, North Augusta, SC 29841 for an outdoor furniture group. I found a furniture package and inquired about purchasing it and was told that it was out of stock. I asked if I could buy the display and was told "NO." The lady, who said she was the manager, told me that a...

I went to the Harlan, KY Biglots (# 1073) to buy a sofa which was out of stock so I asked to buy the floor model and I was told that they only sold the floor model if it had been discontinued. This was totally fine with me so I left. However, I went back in a couple of days later and found out the floor model I asked about was sold to someone else. I'm not...

I went to your big lot store on josey lane and was lied to as well as not being helped by the manager of the store.
I looked online on your website for an ironing board. It said the store had 6 available at the store. So I drove 30 miles to the store and went to the area where the ironing boards were. There were none on the floor. So I saw a girl stocking next to that area and asked her if she could look in the back to see if they had not put them on the floor yet. First...
Read full review of Big LotsHilltop pebble tan sofa
I purchased my sofa on October 7th, and it broke on Christmas morning. The frame board under one of the seats, (the board supporting the springs) split in two at a knot. It didn't last three months. I tried to repair it myself, as Big Lots wouldn't take it back after 30 days, but I can't fix it. So now I am out money and still don't have a sofa. Part of this sofa is cardboard. The quality of this products is awful.

Read full review of Big LotsOnline purchase
I purchased a furniture set online & was expecting a delivery. I noticed that I didn't receive and email & once I logged back into my account I noticed it was canceled without my knowledge. I called customer service he said the email went out but I still to this day have no record. I'm still waiting on my payment to be refunded and it's been 5 days.
Service is terrible.
Every time I go to any of your stores. Clinton Mississippi OR
Pearl Mississippi. The Service when you get to the register is very bad.
Products at both stores have no prices on most items. When you get to the register usually takes several minutes because of price checks. Today at 3:30 pm I had to wait about 10 minutes to get checked out at the store in Pearl Mississippi. Lots of times your food products are expired dates on them.
I guess I will just go to Walmart at Dollar General from now on.
Service
The stores Circleville and Chillicothe Ohio is a joke. Was in there yesterday needing assistance and they acted like they didn't know anything. Chillicothe waited on management and the person never came up. I used to frequently shop there through the years and received excellent service. I ended up going to Walmart. I am saddened over the service I received but husband won't let me go back.

I visited the Big Lots at 3938 Breckenridge Ln Louisville, KY 40220 on 10/17/20 and around 7:45pm I got in line to check out. There were only about 4 families in front of me and the line was not moving which I'm used to at Big Lots. j The cashiers are very chatty and take too long to check people out and always asking for email addresses and phone number...
