They never pick up the phone, which is very disappointing. Why have a phone number if it’s never answered to help customers?

Their business states that they’re open till 9 PM on Sundays on Google Maps, but they have a sticker on the door showing that they are closed at 8 PM on Sundays. Waste of my time.

Very rude and unprofessional customer service at Lowe’s Rancho Santa Margarita today around 6 PM. This is not the first bad experience here. Management seriously needs to pay attention and monitor how employees treat customers. Completely unacceptable.

It appears that I’ve been charged multiple times for an order. How can I resolve this?
These charges are likely authorization holds that are placed throughout the life cycle of your order to ensure the funds are reserved for your purchase. When you place an order, your payment method is authorized for the full amount of the purchase. As items from your order ship, your payment is charged and the authorization is no longer held by Lowe’s. Orders shipped in multiple shipments will be charged separately at time of shipment; therefore, you may see multiple charges, but they'll never exceed the full amount of your order. For orders with longer lead times, your method of payment will be reauthorized to ensure funds remain available until your item is shipped. If you observe multiple pending authorizations, please contact your financial institution as each bank’s policies differ on how long authorizations are held.
