Subject: URGENT ESCALATION: Repeated Supply Chain Failures, Missing Shipments, and Compounded Financial Damages – Order #[Insert Original Order Number]

To: Home Depot Executive Support / Corporate Customer Care



On May 14, 2026, I ordered kitchen cabinets in good faith (first of several reorders and orders due to this issue you can look up when you look up my account).

for a time-sensitive renovation. Due to systemic warehouse errors—specifically, repeatedly shipping only one box of multi-box items (1 of 2)—Home Depot has failed to deliver essential components after multiple re-orders. As of today, Home Depot is holding thousands of dollars of my money for items paid for twice, has failed to issue promised refunds for items returned/picked up, and has completely stalled my home construction. I am seeking immediate delivery of my complete items, immediate processing of my refunds, and financial compensation for the documented project delays.

2. Detailed Timeline of Events

May 14, 2026: Placed initial kitchen cabinet order. Expected delivery: May 17.

May 17 (and days following): Systemic delivery failure. The Pantry arrived missing its bottom box. The Oven Wall Cabinet arrived missing its base box. The 30" Drawer Base was marked "delayed" and lost. Multiple customer service "cases" were opened with zero follow-up.I have 4 cases and a ticket open that have not been responded to at this point.

First Escalation & Re-order: A representative instructed me to return the unreceived drawer base, incomplete Pantry and Oven Wall half-pieces and re-order. Upon doing so, the Pantry and Drawer Base were out of stock. I was forced to settle for a different, unwanted drawer base to meet deadlines, lost my original bulk discount, and had to re-order the Pantry and Oven Wall Cabinet at a higher price.

Second Delivery Failure: The re-ordered Oven Wall Cabinet arrived for a second time missing the bottom box. The re-ordered Pantry arrived for a second time missing its bottom box. The unwanted base was delayed.

Return & Refund Failure: I was told refunds could not be processed until the Home Depot delivery team picked up the incomplete units. The team missed scheduled windows. The half-pantry was finally picked up today (May 29), but no refund has been issued. The third time ordered Oven Wall Cabinet delayed and cannot return even though it is confirmed the missing bottom base.

Third Delivery Failure: A representative promised they personally contacted the warehouse to ensure both boxes of a third Oven Wall Cabinet order would ship. Today, shipping was delayed again. Customer service confirmed only one box is on the truck, marking the third consecutive failure to ship a complete unit. Paid for on a reorder after the first failure and still no refund or product.

3. Financial Impact and Damages

Home Depot’s failure to deliver has created a cascading financial crisis. I am currently out of pocket for:

Double Billing: I have paid for multiple major cabinets twice without receiving a single complete unit or a refund.

Lost Discounts: Loss of the bulk order discount and higher replacement unit pricing due to Home Depot's return-and-reorder instructions.

Compounded Living Expenses: Because cabinets must precede flooring and utilities, my entire project is stalled. I have been forced to pay an extra month of rent at my current residence $2400 plus utilities while simultaneously paying the mortgage on the uninhabitable new home $2660 plus utilities.

Labor & Time: Dozens of hours spent on the phone acting as my own supply-chain manager, alongside delayed contractor schedules.

Total Estimated Financial Damage: $5000-$6000.

4. Required Resolutions

To resolve this matter without further escalation to consumer protection agencies, the Better Business Bureau, or legal counsel, I require the following actions within 48 business hours:

Immediate Manual Audit & Delivery: A dedicated corporate liaison must manually oversee the warehouse to ensure a complete, multi-box Pantry and a complete, multi-box Oven Wall Cabinet are successfully shipped via expedited courier to my address.

Immediate Processing of Refunds: Manually push through the refunds for the original failed orders and the half-pantry that was picked up today.

Price Protection: Adjust all re-ordered items to honor my original bulk discount pricing.

Consequential Damages Compensation: A formal credit or monetary compensation for the documented $5,000–$6,000 in housing and project delay costs caused directly by Home Depot’s repeated supply chain errors.

Redacted personal information sent via other sources.

As a senior home owner and consumer, I am concerned about product quality and availability. Customer service, however, ranks highest with me even though these employees are paid the least. The customer service staff at your Harper Woods store on Vernier Rd in Michigan, helped me locate an American Standard toilet whose boxes were split in shipment. We ordered a 2 piece American Standard toilet but only 1 box arrived. I called Carter @ Customer Service who actually called the company to track the second box. He directed me to the store to reissue the order to avoid a second payment. This was corroborated by Arlene who I called the next day. At the store they could not find the box and requested support from Mr. Franks. He checked the storage and went back and found it in Receiving. They requested a loader. Mr. Franks knew I was waiting for at least 10 minutes. He told me that he would load the carton himself after finishing with another customer. I went out to get a flat bed cart for him because it was the least I could do for an HD employee who cared about my satisfaction. I shook his hand when we were loaded and thanked him for his professionalism that is so rare today. I requested his name MIKHA FRANKS. Don't ignore an employee of this caliber. Please contact him and let him know that Home Depot appreciates his service. Compensate him accordingly because he is an exceptional employee and leader. I am impressed with the professional performance ot Department Supervisor MIKAH FRANKS. Mikha already has my gratitude and respect. Sincerely, Mrs. Myrna Coxon
