This review is for Kohl’s.com not specifically the local store. I purchased a pair of Pokémon swim trunks offline for an easter gift. When they arrived I found that the store had sent me a Spider-Man shirt. When I called the online customer service to inform them of the error I was told that the swim trunks were oversold and no longer in stock and they felt the shirt was an “appropriate” substitution. Concerned that there was a language barrier between myself and the online representative I decided to online chat with a representative. Here were her solutions to the issue: 1. Drive to the local store return shirt and buy trunks there. (I had to point out the trunks aren’t sold in store) 2. Drive to the local store return the shirt then reorder the trunks online( I had to point out the trunks aren’t available online anymore) 3. Drive to the local store return the shirt and then keep checking back online for the trunks to come back in stock and repurchase when they do..... At this point I am extremely frustrated at the service I am receiving and that the convenience of online shopping is not turning into a total inconvenience requiring me to drag 3 kids 20 minutes one way to return an item I didn’t buy to the store. I will say that the instore representative was far nicer and at least apologized for the error. She suggested I write corporate, as they get complaints about the online customer service department all the time. A letter was written only to receive a pre generated letter from Trudy S., stating if I had problems in the future to contact the online customer service department.... The exact people who the problem was with and that they look forward to serving me again. Highly highly disappointed with Kohl’s.com customer service and I will make sure my money is spent elsewhere as their “appropriate substitutions” are less than appropriate and their customer service is a huge inconvenience and headache.
