Kmart's Mistake

I went shopping at the Kmart in Va.Beach. I was checking out paid with a check electronicaly went thru and i signed my copy for them and he took his copy, some how the computer jammed and the head cashier came over and said she would have to rering everything by hand because it voided the transation when it jammed (she had a print out of what i purchased from the office) she said the first check i submitted would not go thru since it voided it, i said ok. They gave me an employee discount for my troubles and i went on my way. Two days later i checked my bank account and both checks went thru. I went to the customer service and spoke with the manager Johnathon and all he said is we cant do anything for 7-10 days,so im out 154.00 until then. I am a mother of 3 kids husband deployed living paycheck to paycheck. This was there mistake and i have to suffer. it just isnt right. I will never shop at Kmart again.

GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK................................

This is one of those cases where a business REALLY needs to get on the
ball or will turn a bad mistake into a terrible situation, considering
the mistake was completely their fault.

This is a situation where the store should have bent over backwards
ASAP to get the situation rectified as speedily as possible, even if
it meant the cash had to come out of the store's safe funds until they
could get reimbursed by their corporate office.

7-10 days for THEIR mistake? Unacceptable.

Please let us know how this plays out.

I received a call today from the Manager i spoke with at the store. I
guess the call i made to Corp. Office got the wheels rolling. He said
the Regional Manager contacted him and if the money is not back in my
account by Monday they would go ahead and refund my money and
compensate me for my troubles. We will see how this goes. Thanks for
your reply.

Well the matter has been taken care of finally. They said the money
still has not been submitted on there end at HQ, but i should not
have to wait till Wed. for my money so he gave me my 154. + a 25.
gift card. I said if the money ever gets deposited in my account i
will return it in 7-10 days. LOL. Thanks everyone for your advise.
