How do I apply for or manage a Lowe's credit card?

How do I request a Lowe's price match?
If you find a lower price on an identical in-stock item from another local retailer, Lowe’s will match it under its Lowest Price Guarantee. Bring the competitor’s ad, website link, or printout to a store associate, or call Lowe’s at (877) 465-6937 to request a price match by phone.
How can I contact Lowe's customer service?
Call (800) 445-6937.
Does Lowe's offer online shopping?
Yes, Lowe’s provides online shopping through its website and mobile app. Customers can browse products, place orders, and choose delivery or pickup options.
Does Lowe's offer home delivery?
Yes, Lowe’s provides home delivery for most products, including large items such as appliances and furniture. Delivery options and fees may vary depending on the item and location.
Does Lowe's offer installation services?
Yes, Lowe’s offers installation services for a variety of products, including appliances, flooring, windows, doors and HVAC systems.
My Lowe's appliance delivery didn't show up — what should I do?
Call Lowe’s customer care at (800) 445-6937 and ask for a delivery dispatcher rather than a general agent. Have your order number and confirmation email ready. If the truck was marked delivered without arriving, ask the agent to open a delivery exception case in writing and request an email confirmation. If you paid by debit or credit card and the dispatch loop continues, you can dispute the charge with your card issuer while the case is open.
I want to cancel an undelivered Lowe's order. Will I get a refund right away?
Lowe’s policy states that refund processing depends on the payment method. Card refunds typically post within up to 7 business days once the return or cancellation is complete. For scheduled-delivery orders paid by cash, refunds may be issued by refund voucher to the email on file within 24 hours, redeemable at any Lowe’s store. If you are told you must wait for product to return to a warehouse before a refund is started, ask for that policy in writing and escalate to executive customer relations using the contacts above.
How long do I have to return a Lowe's appliance?
Most major appliances — refrigerators, washers, dryers, ranges, dishwashers, over-the-range microwaves, cooktops and wall ovens — must have a return initiated with Lowe’s within 48 hours of delivery or in-store pickup. Items returned in original, unopened, factory-sealed packaging get 30 days. Purchases on a Lowe’s-branded credit card have 30 days for major appliances.
My Lowe's Protection Plan repair is stuck. What can I do?
Lowe’s Protection Plans for major appliances are administered by Federal Warranty Service Corp., an Assurant affiliate. Repair authorizations and parts ordering go through the administrator, which is why some claims take days to move from technician visit to repair approval. Call the protection-plan line at (888) 775-6937 for status. If repeated repairs fail, ask whether your plan’s lemon or no-lemon provision applies; class action litigation over the plans was sent to arbitration in 2021, so disputes are generally handled through the arbitration clause rather than court.
Does Lowe's still match competitor prices?
Yes. Lowe’s Lowest Price Guarantee matches the current advertised price of an identical, in-stock item from another local retailer, including the price plus shipping or delivery. Bring the competitor’s website, ad, printout or photo to a store associate, or call (877) 465-6937. Exclusions include clearance, refurbished, special-order, Black Friday and competitor loyalty-member prices, and third-party Amazon sellers.
Why was I charged a 20 percent restocking fee on a special order?
Special order configured products returned or canceled more than 72 hours after purchase are subject to a 20 percent restocking fee. The fee may also be taxed in some states. Cabinets, custom blinds and other made-to-order items typically fall under this rule. If you were charged the fee on an installed-sales contract, check your installation paperwork — the contract may include a separate right-to-cancel window that supersedes the general policy.
How long does Lowe's installation take, and what if my project stalls?
Lowe’s manages installations through independent contractors. Timelines vary by project type and region; complex projects such as kitchens, windows and doors can extend for weeks. If your installation is stalled or repeat visits are not fixing the problem, escalate to the store project specialist first, then to Lowe’s executive customer relations using the contacts above. Document each visit, missed appointment and communication in writing.
Can I return an item bought through Instacart, DoorDash or another delivery app?
Yes. Third-party marketplace orders (Instacart, DoorDash, Shipt, Uber and similar) can be returned with proof of purchase to any Lowe’s retail store within 90 days, subject to the same category exceptions as regular returns. Refunds are issued as in-store credit for the item price plus tax.

I have tried to connect Lowes Customer Service either by phone (6 different numbers that either no longer worked or after 30 minutes would drop me) on line chat that after answer many question was given a form to fill out with a charge of $5 on my credit card. Lowes has totally forgot how to support their customers. They rarely have people who know how to help you at the store like they used to. Why should anyone use Lowes?
Zero. Just spent over 2 hours on various calls trying to get someone in my local Lowes in Santa Fe to pick up. I have been into the store on 4 separate occasions to see the person in cabinets. Never there. Was told I needed to make an appt. Tried to call and make an appt. on 5 separate occasions. No one ever picks up the phone. I am looking for any other outlet who may deal in my cabinetry. Will no longer go to Lowes. Would prefer to give no stars but was told I had to give a rating. So 1 star is the lowest I can go.
Ordered refrigerator via phone on 2-14-26 with Lowe’s on 421 in Wilkesboro. The refrigerator stopped working. Manager- Heidi- informed me there is nothing she can do due to me buying with my debit card. Have reached out numerous times to Whirlpool warranty, however, stay on hold or hung up on. The supervisor reports have to follow process and not heard back from her.
Interest rate is so high. You don’t ever expect a customer to be able to pay bill. Keeps going up every month. You’re making sure you’re taking people to the cleaners. I won’t ever buy from you again! Ever!
If there were a zero, Lowe's would get that. Absolutely useless customer service.
Their partner damaged my kitchen and my new dishwasher, and now Lowe's, with whom I have a warranty contract, refuses to honor that contract.
Lawsuit time.
