I purchased an $800.00 Lenovo laptop from Best Buy in August of 2018 for my daughter to use while away at College. In less than a year the LCD display went out and the Geek Squad replaced it. A year later a similar problem cropped up and I took to them again to fix it. The Geek Squad told me that this laptop had a defect but failed to tell me the first time.
Now that it is out of warranty they refused to repair without a fee. This is really disingenuous of Best Buy. They tried to offer a small discount for a brand new laptop. When I inquired with the manager about how they were going to address the problem they basically told me that I was out of luck. When I told them if I was a person of authority they would probably treat me different they escorted me out. Bottom Line, don’t let these people con you because they make money on new products and discourage fixing existing products. This is a terrible company with questionable ethics. It’s all about the Benjamin’s and less about customer service.

I ordered a Christmas gift for my kid and they cancelled it. Called to try and get it figured out. They said it was a cc issue but they shipped it (obviously not the issue). The day they claimed they tried to deliver it I was home all day and it snowed the night before, there were NO tracks, truck or otherwise in the driveway or to the door. Then they said it was because I didn't reschedule a delivery time (the link supplied sent me to a hair salon in Canada). They canceled my order because of their issues and now I have no Christmas gift for my kid. They offered ZERO solutions. Will Never use Best Buy again. Will tell as many people as possible.

BUYER BEWARE - I ordered a TV that was on sale-online to be picked up at Best Buy in Rock Hill SC. When I was emailed my receipt and order confirmation, it said it is available for pick up in South Portland ME (16 hours drive from where I live). When I called to get their error corrected, I was told that they will not fix the error and I needed to go online and cancel the order as it is no longer available or go pick it up in Maine. The customer service rep, without my permission, cancelled the order and now I have no TV for my son for Christmas and the purchase STILL is on my credit card. Very POOR service. From this point forward, I will not purchase anything from Best Buy nor would I recommend anyone to buy anything from Best Buy.

Geek Squad delivered my furniture to the wrong address, blamed me for their mistake, and told me that it was up to me to get the item to my home. Two Geek Customer Service reps told me they would fix the issue and deliver the furniture to my home "within the hour." I received neither my purchase nor any other communication the rest of that afternoon/evening. The next day I had to call Geek Customer Service again and they told me the mistake was mine and it was up to me to retrieve my furniture from where they delivered it by mistake. I spoke with the delivery driver beforehand. He told me he was "ten minutes away." I told him that I would meet him out front because I had parking for their vehicle.
After two emails saying the delivery was delayed, I get an email thanking me for using Geek Squad for my delivery. I called the delivery driver who told me that he had dropped my furniture off with "some young girl." Think about that. I told him to meet me and he not only dropped the product off at the wrong address, the driver did not ask for me, nor did he ask to haul away my old furniture as per the order on his phone. $700 dollars worth of furniture without even checking id. (I spoke with the people who have my furniture and they were stunned that Best Buy would leave expensive furniture with a child. That makes 4 of us) The driver said he would go back and retrieve my furniture. I never heard from the driver again. That is when I contacted Geek Squad, was lied to twice, and then blamed for the mis-delivery. 20 years a customer.
Thousands of dollars and two houses filled with appliances and furniture I purchased from Best Buy over the years. The most insulting part of the experience was the "Geek Squad" customer service "team" apologizing and telling me how much they "valued me as a customer." Then telling me I am to blame and they are done with the transaction. And this problem doesn't cover the fact that Geek Squad LOST a television that they were supposed to deliver to my home two weeks before that.
In 60 years on this planet, including customer service work, this is the most unprofessional treatment I have ever received from any business. And I spent a career in the military. When Best Buy brags about their Geek Squad, remember what a long-time customer like myself has written on this page. I now have 250 plus pounds of furniture in a stranger's garage miles away from my home. I am a disabled veteran and my wife has leukemia and I have no one to pick up the furniture for us. I depended on Best Buy to go the extra mile for a long-time loyal customer after an obvious error. It seems that Best Buy doesn't have time for all that "great customer service. I couldn't be more disappointed in a company that I have always respected and have had a great relationship with. When the going gets tough, Best Buy turtles. Best Buy-Bye-bye.

I thought buying a dishwasher from Best Buy w/ installation would be a good experience. Unfortunately, it's been far from it. If you're thinking about doing so, I would highly recommend you look elsewhere. To put it short, I purchased 3 weeks ago and my installation has been rescheduled 4 times and I'm given no reason why. Twice I've had to take the day off from work and was literally told both times during my appointment time they would need to reschedule. This is insane. I've tried to speak with a supervisor and was put on hold for 45 minutes and then they hung up on me and didn't even try me back. I sent a message to Best Buy through Facebook about this experience and nothing. What a terrible experience.

I have bought a Tv yesterday, and today after spoking to 4 different online agents, I was told my order was ready for the pick up. But after I got to the store, they kept telling me my order was not ready yet. Then I tried to contact them and get a response on social media, one of the employees laughed at my comments and mocked me. That was the best customer experience ever!!! I paid for something that I could not received and I was laughed at! Best store!

Good luck trying to make a claim on the Geek Squad warranty. It has been 31 days and Geek Squad points me to AIG, the insurance company that backs the claim who points the finger to a tv repair company that when called says Geek Squad “throws them under the bus”? Came to the store and they couldn’t figure out what to do stating there are two systems and they can only see one. I had to finally leave and ask for a call when they figure it out? The store called to say it was all worked out and to come back to the store tomorrow. Also the TV repair shop also called back saying he needed to order parts that would be shipped to my house and when I get them, to call and schedule a repair date. Complete run around, this is a terrible warranty, I would caution anyone when purchasing this from Best Buy.

Multiple failures:
1) Best Buy representative unable to confirm whether appropriate digital stylus pen is bundled with laptop EVEN BEFORE PURCHASE but assures that it will be the particular model for the respective laptop as it is a 'sealed box' from the manufacturer HP.
2) DESPITE PURCHASE OF comprehensive GEEK SQUAD WARRANTY I am still waiting to receive acknowledgement of a wrong hardware part (digital stylus pen) that ought to be replaced with the compatible new generation digital pen that is a bundled STANDARD FEATURE of the HP laptop.
3) Windows 10 pro 64 IS IN FACT NOT OPERATIONAL EVEN THOUGH IT IS ADVERTISED AS AN 'INCLUDED PACKAGE' ON THE Best Buy ADVERT for this laptop and thus PAID FOR! As a consumer, I am still expected to purchase a product separately which is totally false advertising as that is what a working WINDOWS 10 always requires!!
4) Upon providing the full details of the this faulty laptop I am told to contact HP central who are completely clueless about the country and city where I am based!!! EVEN THOUGH IT LISTED ON THEIR OWN WEBSITE. EVEN THEN Best Buy do not inform me of their liaison representative in the overseas country even though they claim they have international arrangements via their GEEK SQUAD service AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE!!
I will NOT EVER be purchasing from DISHONEST AND DODGY Best Buy again and will STRONGLY STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT NO-ONE DOES SO IN THE FUTURE. This experience reflects very poorly on Canadian customer service quality. It is evidently rubbish.

On September 16, 2020, I purchased a Best Buy gift card from CVS Store # 8756 for $500.00. When I got home to use the card, the four digit number unreadable. I returned to CVS #8756 and was told to call Best Buy, Best Buy told me that it was now CVS’ responsibility. CVS told me that there was nothing they could do. I called Best Buy and was told that since I had used a 3rd party vendor, it was their responsibility. I called customer service and told them that the card was damaged. My patience has worn thin. This was for $500, which is no small amount. CVS tried contacting Best Buy and they said that the card was activated (anytime you guy a gift card, they activated at the register - this ensures that is was not stollen). This card was NEVER USED. Best Buy's C/S has been rude and unaccommodating. And they don't care. Best Buy -- not a chance..

This review is more about loyalty and good customer service than anything else after being charged a 100+% promotional interest penalty. I made a mistake, and had a promotional purchase being paid on a monthly "auto pay" from my bank. I didn't pay attention to my monthly statements, because I knew it was being paid every month (early every month). When I did look at recent statements, I noticed a problem. When I went back a few months, I saw where I received a $457 interest charge on a $422 remaining balance. I immediately called when I found the problem , and was told since a few months had passed there was nothing they could do now. I told them I would have paid the $422 if I would have known to avoid a 110+% interest charge.
I asked if they could split it or do anything as I have been a customer for 20+ years and literally have spent in excess of $20k. The answer from Best Buy customer service & her supervisor for that type of loyalty is "I am sorry - Nothing we can do". I've learned my expensive lesson here, and will spend my money with a company that appreciates the customer. That definitely is not Best Buy.

My iOS phone needed a new battery. I had an appointment on Sat, Nov 7. Before accepting my phone they ran diagnostics. Nothing was found amiss. I returned 1.5hr later - they ran another diagnostic and said my home button was no longer working. It had been working before the battery change, now it was not. The ONLY option they gave me was to leave it & pay $$$$ for a new button or to activate AssistedTouch button. I had only enough money for the battery, now I’m stuck with a button that requires 3x number of taps to navigate my apps and one that gets in the way of EVERY SINGLE app I use. They cared not one bit for the damage they did.
Additionally:
1. My keyboard is delayed when texting.2. My camera shuts down when taking pics and I have to shut down & restart the phone to make it temporarily work.
3. If I use the up/down volume it crashes web pages.
I am VERY upset.

I went to Best Buy website to order a printer. I selected one and I checked out. I provided all my information including credit card information. I kept waiting for a link to show the status of my order. It never showed up. I checked my email. Still nothing. I went back to my account on Best Buy. It showed I still had something in my cart. It was the same printer, so I checked out again. Once again I check to see what my order number was. There was still no evidence of anything being ordered. It showed my last purchase was in June over six months ago. I checked my credit card and it showed two purchases back to back of the same item that I had been trying to order. I called customer service. I was on hold 54 minutes when I finally gave up.
I tried to go into my account and cancel one of the orders. But as it showed I had not placed an order, I could not cancel the order. So I tried to get help through their online chat service. All I got was a bot. It was 2 o’clock in the afternoon and it said there was no person available. All they provided was a bot which only told me how to cancel an existing order. Which I could not do because it showed order. It’s a Billings Montana, snowing and icy, but I have no way to cancel this order and my credit card is being billed for $450 now. So I drive all the way across town to cancel my order.
When I get there they tell me the same thing that they cannot cancel my order. I showed them my credit card receipt on my phone to show that I had indeed been charged twice. They asked me my account information. I tried to tell them and the woman tells me, “most people take off their mask.” I was flabbergasted, Yellowstone County has one of the highest rates of COVID-19 in the nation. We are out of hospital beds and this woman tells me to take my mask off. In the end they give me the exact same number that I’d already called on three different times and could not get through one.
I showed them I had just called that number and was literally on hold for 54 minutes before I gave up. That’s all they could do for me. I still have not been able to cancel my order. They suggested I just do it through my credit card. Unfortunately, it was on my PayPal which is backed up I My American Express, therefore I have to cancel both cards now to prevent these payments from going through. Zero customer service.

This will be the fourth repair that we will have on our refrigerator. I set up the appointment last week. Did the confirmation then two days later the appointment was canceled. Said that they were waiting on repairs even though there was no repairs to be made. It was a diagnostic because this repair should qualify for the no lemon Exchange so I reschedule the appointment for today 11/4 and nobody showed up despite my calling Best Buy three times during the day to try to get an update and they just told me the same thing that they would be out between 8 and 5 and would call me when half an hour before they came out. Well they did not. I took the day off of work to sit and wait and nobody showed up. That's why I didn't even have the respect for my time to call me and say they weren't going to call me.
And when I called the 1 800 numbers in complain after they didn't come by there at 5 so this was yet another call into Best Buy. Zero empathy shown to me from the representative so I'm going to be on the 3rd appointment a refrigerator that's not been working for over a week and hours of my time wasted. I want this fixed and actually I want the refrigerator replaced. Not only do I want the refrigerator replaced but I also want Best Buy gift cards in the amount of money I am now out due to not only missing work but sitting and waiting on the phone. My next step will be getting legal counsel.

I purchased a 4 piece kitchen appliances. I purchased the install and the extended warranty. They changed the order and forgot to add the extended warranty on one of the produces. You can see in my order where they added the produce and canceled it not once, but twice. Both times they had put the extended warranty on the microwave, but not the final one. I have it on the other products. I understand it was a mistake, but they should stand behind the products, employee, and customer.

My experience up until 6/202 had been positive' but this takes the cake. I originally ordered a Samsung Flex Duo dual fuel stove from Lansing MI on 6/12/20, original delivery date set for 7/2/20. BB called the day before to say that they did not have the stove in the warehouse. So I tried to call the store, could not get hold of anyone, so I went to the store and I spoke to the appliance manager. He looked it and said the stove was no longer available. So he contacted the BB sales who was responsible to place the Purchase Orders for Samsung stoves. After 10 days, still no response. The system was still saying that this model was not available.
A few days later, BB put an upgraded model of the Samsung stove on their website. So I returned to the store, told the appliance manager I wanted the upgraded model, he placed the order for the new model on 7/23/20. He assured me that he would contact me when he got an estimated delivery date. The new model was scheduled for delivery on 9/16/20 but no stove yet, then rescheduled for 10/9/20, but BB delivery called to say no stove. So I went back to store, but the appliance manager was not there, so another associate stated that the order had been cancelled by BB Help Desk. So he placed a new order for the stove on 10/9/20.
The appliance manager was to contact BB Sales team to escalate the order. So on 10/26, tried calling the local store to get status of order, somehow I got connected to the Geek Squad Resolution team, who advised that the records show that my stove was recently shipped to the Lansing store. Again I went to the store, I was told that the appliance manager was on an extended medical leave, so an employee went to the stores warehouse and confirmed that the stove was physically there in back with my name on it. I requested an delivery/install date, but was told that the scheduling tool was not working because the have a new manager for the delivery team, but they would call me back with a date by the next day. Received no call or email, so on 10/28 I returned to the store to get update.
After the employee stared at his computer for 20 minutes, he went back to store warehouse to confirm the stove was there. He again promised a call back with 24 hrs to schedule the delivery. Didn't hear back. So on 10/30, I sent an email to Jacob ** "store manager", later that after I received a call from an associate, David, who said he was told by the store manager to call to say they discovered that they received the wrong model stove and the correct stove was not available and I could have a refund. I was so aghast for this poor customer service. I have ordered the stove directly from Samsung.com with a delivery date of 11/19/20. No more Best Buy. Empty promises!!!!

If you enjoy wasting your time as much as Best Buy's "Geek Squad" does, then feel free to schedule an appointment at the 1740 30th St, Boulder, CO location. 2 appointments and no installs completed. I'm from Fort Collins, CO and decided to to schedule a amplifier install and to have my backup camera checked at this location because they were the soonest ones available in my area. The moment I arrive, the tech was working on a different vehicle and told me that my appointment was cancelled. This was the same tech I spoke with a week before to make sure we were clear that I scheduled on the 16th of October, 2020 and what I wanted to have installed.
On the 16, he install a power cable for the amplifier and told me it was going to be very late if he were to finish the install considering we got off to such a late start and that we can schedule another appointment the following week first thing in the am. I was not happy with this but I was willing to do another appointment. Today, being the next appointment scheduled, I showed up for my second appointment and the tech was running late. I walked around the store for about an hour and a half and spoke with a Best Buy manager I assume. He apologized to me and wrote my name and number down so he told contact me when the tech arrived. I'm still waiting for that phone call lol. I'd give this location negative stars if I could but this will do I guess.

I have a split door freezer/fridge that provides me enough space for my food, etc. Once I had 2 roommates move in, it got a little crampy. I found this great deal for an Amana bottom freezer style refrigerator at Best Buy on July 31st, 2020. It retailed for $1,399 and BB had it discounted to $989.00. I bought the fridge online and scheduled a delivery for mid- August. On August 4th, I was unexpectedly refunded my purchase amount. When I went to my Best Buy app, it said "there was a problem processing my payment" and left me an option to reenter my payment information. I did so, and did the Bank of America verification process since it was an unusual purchase. I thought everything was fine after that... Until 5 days later, my account was yet again refunded the purchase amount.
I got in an online chat conversation with Best Buy's Customer Service department to find out what the problem is. After a long discussion, it was determined that the refrigerator I ordered was temporarily backordered and they refunded me as a standard policy. I told the Customer Service Rep that I still wanted the item, and I paid for it a 3rd time after the Rep assured me they would not refund my money again. They also informed me the item would arrive on October 10th but there were no open delivery spots on that date. I made the appointment for Oct 17th. It's quite a wait, but there was no emergency, my current appliance was in working condition. Two days before I was to receive my Amana refrigerator, Best Buy informed me that I needed to reschedule my delivery date. I rescheduled it for Monday, October 19th. The next day (Oct 16th) I got another reschedule notice via text and email.
I called them to find out what is going on. The Representative asked me when I would like to reschedule my delivery date to. I told him that this process is completely maddening and I would be able to better reschedule if I knew when Best Buy would receive the refrigerator I ordered. After being put on hold for a short time, the Rep told me the first available delivery date was JANUARY 4TH. 2021!!!
Let's recap 1. I bought this item on JULY 31st, 2020. 2. I rebought it 2 more times in about a 10 day period. Best Buy did not communicate clearly what the problem was with my delivery for months. 3. Best Buy wanted me to guess the availability of the product by rescheduling over and over and over again until next year???! I could have hired someone to cruise in a tugboat from the Cayman Islands with the fridge to the port of Oakland, then ride via horse and buggy to my condo in Sacramento and it would have been here sooner than this insane process Best Buy were putting me through.

If I could rate in the negative I would. I purchased a Samsung TV from Best Buy 2 years ago after 6 months began having issues with the TV. Still to this day same issues. Regarding customer service when you call in they are simple minded, cannot speak any communication other than what is on a script. Long wait time, unhelpful, and state that their system does not have record all of the calls or trips by the technicians that they have sent out from either geek squad or the third party they contract through.
Best Buy Geek Squad technician comes out and says no one has documented the same part that has been replaced 4 times and the tech wants to replace again. IF replacement 1 and 2 did not work why would replacement number 5 of the same part. When the time comes to purchase any other electronic device for my home I will NOT EVER purchase another item from Best Buy. I will verbally share my experience with everyone I encounter and hope that they as well will make the choice not to purchase from Best Buy.
Sales department is helpful but after purchase you're on your own. The warranty you purchased means NOTHING. If you do have a warranty from them make sure you request only geek squad and refuse third party to work on your item. From the multiple encounters we have had if the third part comes out their work is not documented by best buy and does not count as an attempted repair. Absolute joke of customer service, warranty and repair.

Problem in a nutshell: PC's protection plan has ended--but problems that began at purchase were never repaired. I need to speak with CORPORATE to resolve. Diane **. The HP notebook I purchased from the Best Buy (Camelback AZ00253), January 18, 2016, with Protect Support Plus GSP Plan, has been having intermittent problems that have gradually worsened. Concurrently, I purchased Microsoft Windows 10 at the Scottsdale retail outlet, along with its software protection plan, thus paying for total protection plan for both hardware and software from Best Buy and Microsoft.
While the GSP protection plan expired after 3 years, on September 22, 2020, around 3 pm, Rafael (at 888-BestBuy, in the Philippines) extended it. The problems began barely 3 months after the purchase in 2016—while under the total protection plan—and were never resolved/fixed either at the store, or by phone, or when shipped to repair (6 weeks around August 2019, and again in August 2020) while under the protection plan.
The main problems:• Batteries (original + brand new one I purchased out-of-pocket) not keeping their charge.
• Muffled sound (Technician determined a “short in speakers; sound driver problem”).
• Microsoft Outlook not synchronizing or saving email passwords (no one’s been able to determine what causes that problem).
• Palm rest cracked (I noticed after it my computer came back from the August 2019 repair).
I have repeatedly brought my laptop for repair at Microsoft (Scottsdale Fashion Square location) and Best Buy Geek Squad (Camelback AZ00253), where one would say the problem was hardware, and the other that it was a software issue—while under full hardware and software protection plans. Back and forth, I have gone, time and time again since 2016, between the Geek Squad and Microsoft, to no avail. The problems have continued and gradually increased in frequency and severity.
I have spent countless and frustrating hours on the phone with Technical support all over the world… The last bout lasting nine (9) hours being connected, dropped, calling back, transferred, dropped, on-hold… Escalated to levels 2, 3, then 4, then back to 2, with still no resolution… Windows operating system was uninstalled and reinstalled… I spent hours with my Internet provider, Cox, who also checked why Outlook was not saving passwords, to no avail… Drivers were uninstalled and reinstalled…
On August 10, 2020, over-the-phone Microsoft Technicians determined that speakers had a short, not a software issue, but a hardware issue, they said; that Outlook was not saving the passwords, an ongoing problem gradually increasing to unmanageable since 2016. All my contacts were erased during one of the Technicians’ intervention over the phone… A large number of important files were lost during in-store (Camelback AZ00253) transfers and not backed-up properly… On August 16, 2020, when the Geek Squad said that they would need to send my unit for repair, I purchased a loaner for $737.38, which will need to be refunded to me. As of today, I am told my unit has been returned—without being repaired— to the store.
To add insult to injury, Victor (Camelback AZ00253) took my phone and deleted all my voicemails (without my permission)! After I realized what Victor had done to my phone without my permission and when I saw him again at the store to inquire about the status of my unit, he snickered and said he “needed to delete my voicemail so Repair could leave a message!” I received one voicemail from the Repair facility, I called back and left a message too. I received a second call, which I answered immediately, only to hear an automated message giving a number to call back which I immediately called back only to be met with yet another automated message. I received an email, copied below, which claimed that I could not be reached—that was a lie!
On September 23, 2020, and in subsequent calls, I was referred to Corporate and called the number I was given, (612) 291-1000. A lady named “Sue” answered at 1:08 pm. In a smug and sarcastic tone of voice, she said, “You expect us to repair it for free”, and transferred me to “Computing Services”. At “Computing Services”, I spoke with Sebastian, in Columbia, who said he would “escalate the problem” to his manager who would “email me within 5 to 7 days,” and that the manager would “approve an exchange for a new computer, based on the ‘No Lemon Benefit’ found in the text of the Protection Plan” I purchased. I never heard from him again…
On October 1, 2020, having not heard from Sebastian, I called “Computing Services” again. I spoke with Hector, in Panama, who said he would “escalate the issue to his Supervisor and call me back in 2 hours.” I never heard from him again… When I called back Computing Services, I was told this was a technical line and that I needed to call Corporate… I did, twice, and was again transferred to a Technician…who ended up saying that I needed to talk with the Store (Camelback AZ00253)…
Around 3 p.m., I spoke with Brian, at the Best Buy store. I was on-hold 15 minutes. When he came back, he said he was the store Manager and that I should speak with the Geek Squad Manager… I was transferred and dropped. When I got through the prompts and again waiting on-hold over 45 minutes, the Geek Squad Manager, told me I needed to speak with Corporate… Corporate told me to speak with the Geek Squad Manager. Tossed back and forth again, I now appeal to you. Help me get someone in authority from BEST BUY CORPORATE to resolve this problem. Thank you in advance. Diane **.

I recently purchased some smart TVs at the Knoxville TN Best Buy store. The salesman indicated that if I applied for a Best Buy credit card I would receive a 10% discount on the purchase, which would appear on my statement. This was incorrect. I actually received a reward of that amount to be used for future purchases. This was a clear misrepresentation of what I was to receive. I am very disappointed with this misrepresentation and others should be aware of this scam. I will not be shopping at Best Buy anymore.

My Best Buy Experience. I was scheduled for delivery of an OTC microwave and stove for Sept 7, 2020, between 7 am and 1:30 pm. One was already on order with BB. The other they needed to order. To make it more convenient for BB, they scheduled them both together and the sales person said there would be additional time between the time they got delivered and I was scheduled so it would give an extra cushion. I received several confirmations via email of the appt, including one the day before. I received an email how to prepare for the appt including COVID and making room for the old appliances. I got up at 5 am to prepare as per their instructions as well as making an easy path from garage. Have you read their requests? My husband had to go to another office to work because of disruptions and dogs barking, so he left around 8 am.
I received a call around 9 am from dispatch or delivery person there were no appliances for him to deliver. So I told him to please look again because I already received a confirmation from BB. He said he already did and that one is scheduled to come in mid month and the other mid Dec. He would have someone call me. NO call from anyone. Same day, I called a number listed that went to Geek Squad. They apologized sincerely and promised they would do something to make me happy. After a long conversation and she put me on hold to talk to her manager, she wanted to transfer to someone in SALES MANAGEMENT that could help me. It immediately disconnected.
Same day, I called back and got someone else and started again a lengthy conversation. They told me they worked from home and could not transfer the call and was very sorry and promised someone would call me. NO CALL!!! Today is Oct 13, still no call. So I guess they sold my appliances to someone else that was angrier than me. BTW, they were already paid for on a credit card.

Purchased appliances online from Best Buy with delivery and installation. Scheduled the delivery day and took the day off of work. I received a phone call that morning to tell me that they could not deliver my appliances and that in 24-48 hours I would get a call to reschedule. I called Best Buy for help. They also could not help me get my items delivered that day. I was also told that it would be at least another week before I would be able to reschedule. I couldn’t wait that long, so I asked that my purchase be canceled and I be refunded so I can go out and purchase appliances the same day. I was told that only the installation could be refunded ($.01) and that I would need to call back in 24 hours to request again a refund for the appliances. That didn’t seem right to me that I would be asked to do this when Best Buy is the one who is letting me down, so I asked to speak to the manager.
I then waited 55 minutes to talk to the manager because he was “busy.” Finally got to talk to the manager after an hour. Was told that they cannot even call the warehouse to talk to someone about our delivery. They could only send a message to them regarding our order with no guarantee of any response. They could not refund my appliance purchase because it was in “delivery” status and I would have to wait for this as well. So now I’m stuck without appliances and no refund so I cannot go out and buy appliances on the day off that I scheduled for this. Terrible experience. The assistance/answers were not sufficient when I spend over $2000 on this one purchase. Will never purchase anything from Best Buy again.

Best Buy should close their doors if can’t handle delivery and installation of 4 kitchen appliances. In August we placed our appliance order in a store in MA. From the beginning this order was messed up, first they set up the delivery for the wrong address which we had that corrected even before we left the store. Since everyone knows appliances are all back order, we were set up to receive EVERYTHING on the same day beginning of September. We received emails confirming our appointment for that day, we took the day off to receive and have all appliances installed and old ones hauled away. The day of the delivery, we only received one item when we were supposed to get all 4. Was on the phone with Best Buy the whole day between the store and regular customer service people. Nothing got resolved, the next 3 days on the phone with Best Buy every day and we only received 2 items but nothing installed.
The next week we were promised the installation will happen and the last item would get delivered. Now we are 4 weeks later and we still have our appliances in boxes without installation and missing a stove. DO NOT PURCHASE anything from Best Buy!!!! We will never step foot in a store ever again. We wasted so much time on the phone with them, on one of the days I was on the phone with them for 6 hrs! It’s crazy when you spend over $5000 to have these kind of issues. In the end Best Buy cost us money and time. Do not make the same mistake as us, take your business someplace else.

I need to share this experience with other folks that may consider purchasing appliances from Best Buy. DON'T. Do yourself a favor and save the aggravation. They will explain to you how important purchasing the Geek Squad Warranty is. In theory it would be a good idea, but the way it works, it's pure garbage. In 2016 I purchased a new refrigerator, oven, and dishwasher, along with a range microwave. Since that refrigerator was delivered, we have had nothing but issues. Yes, since 2016, and Best Buy had continued to send people out time after time to fix problems. The so-called experts could not get it right, and as a result the unit received replacement door that does not even have the Whirlpool insignia on it. They attempted to replace a door 3 times in order to get the door without damage.
Now fast forward a few years later and I reported that the ice maker would make ice, and then it would completely empty, and not make ice for days. This is a common issue with Whirlpool Ice Makers. I would reset the ice maker, turning it off, and back on, and still would not produce ice. It would just start up randomly and make ice for a few days, then repeat the process. So I called Geek Squad, they said they would send someone out to fix the ice maker. They sent a local appliance outfit out, and they investigated the ice maker. They told me that we needed to replace the ice maker, and then they ordered a replacement ice machine. When the technician came back, he opened the box, and said that the machine appeared to be broken or defective. So they would then order a new unit.
This time when they returned he said this one looked to be defective but maybe that is how they are sent. Defective? He said the arm should move, but it was stuck in position. It did not move, but he installed the unit, and of course it was broken. So I called back to Geek Squad and they said they would send a Whirlpool Technician out. Yep, they sent the same company again, with no ice machine, and he told me that he could not speak with Whirlpool because they are not Whirlpool certified. So again, I phoned Geek Squad, and they told me they would find a technician to come service the ice maker.
A few days later, I get an email from Geek Squad, they are unable to find a certified Whirlpool Technician in my area. I live in a major suburb in South Florida. There is a Whirlpool dealer not more than 20 minutes from my home. So they told me not to worry, they were going to exchange the refrigerator for me, and they would be replacing the unit with a similar model. So all I need to do is go to the store, and they would have all the paperwork ready when I arrived. I went to the store, and not only did they not have any paperwork, the appliance salesman attempted to hand me a gift card and told me that I can buy anything I would like in the store.
I explained that I wanted the new version of my refrigerator and I was not interested in anything else, he worked on getting the paperwork ready. In the end, with my service plan warranty, all I would have to pay was $1,499.00 plus delivery for the replacement. Are you insane? The guy on the phone from Geek Squad said that it was an exchange, clearly it was not conveyed that way to the store. So he told me to call Geek Squad back, and I did. They said they had no documentation that there was an exchange.
I am reading the "Product Exchange Form" the store gave me, and there is a line item Comparable Replacement SKU on the form. They told me that it would have to be filled out. I explained that is what the guy told me he did, and Geek Squad said they do not do that. If they do not do that, why does the system allow for it, and why did the sales man in the store tell me to call Geek Squad to straighten that out? I would never have known about it, had the first person and the rep in the store not tell me about it.
This entire process prompted me to email the board at Best Buy. They put me in touch with a woman Karla ** - Executive Response Team. You may as well take the word response out of her title. It is more like the Executive Ghosting Team. This woman called me after sending the letter, and then has never met a single commitment in terms of communicating with me. She has promised on more than 1 occasion to call with an update on the case, time had came and went. I wrote another email, she called back, told me that she is still working on it, and that she would call me later in the day or tomorrow. Tomorrow was 5 days ago.
Again yesterday, I wrote another email, which she then prompted her to write me an email last night, I will be in touch with you tomorrow. Well, it's tomorrow evening, they are gone for the night. But oddly enough, Karla did call me back at almost 9PM, just to tell me that she was still working on a resolution, and that I would hear from her tomorrow after 4PM. I did not hear from Karla again, and now that was two business days ago. I would not be as annoyed as I am but this has been ongoing 10 weeks already.
We are talking about a refrigerator, this is not a computer system for Space X, or a network for a Government Entity. The sense of urgency on providing a resolution on the part of Best Buy is just way below anyone's expectation. I want to make sure that anyone who is contemplating doing business with Best Buy - Beware!!! They will take your money, and give you nothing but empty promises and resolution-less solutions. Good Luck, maybe you will have a better outcome than me.

On Monday, September 28, 2020, my HP 8610 OfficeJet Pro printer (which I bought at Best Buy, where I am a "Premier" customer) stopped putting toner to paper. After fiddling with settings as best I could and getting no result, I called Geek Squad (owned by Best Buy) with whom I have a maintenance contract. The Tech Support representative I spoke to ("Robert", who was in Panama) did a screen share with me and, after about 45 minutes, told me that he could not fix it remotely and that I had to bring the printer to the Best Buy Store in Sarasota for repairs, about 12 miles from my home. We scheduled an appointment, Robert confirmed it via email, and I drove to the store with the printer on Tuesday, September 29.
I arrived at the Geek Squad location in the store on time and was met with blank stares. "Shay" asked me what I was there for and I told him "for printer repair as per the instructions of your Tech Support rep in Panama". Shay replied that Geek Squad does not repair printers! Despite my showing him the appointment on my iPhone sent by Robert, he insisted that they could not help me, but tried fiddling with the same settings that Robert and I had previously tried and, unsurprisingly, got no results. After 30 minutes, I was becoming irritated and Shay handed me off to the in-store Geek Squad Manager, "Jared". Jared asked me to recount the whole story from the beginning, which I did, EXCEPT that, when I tried mentioning Robert's recommendations, he said that "we can see that you spoke to Robert, but we can't see his notes".
How was this possible I asked, since they are connected via the same network but yet cannot see any pertinent data from previous sessions? His response to me was "you had your chance to talk, now let me talk"!?! He then proceeded to tell me that regardless of what I had been told, Geek Squad does not and will not attempt to repair printers and that my only option was to buy a new printer. At no time did any of the Geek Squad employees address me by name, behave respectfully or try, in any way, to go beyond quoting their policy and make a real effort to solve my problem.
Jared was nothing short of arrogant and rude. I am shocked that, having bought more than $40,000 worth of equipment from Best Buy, their attitude was so incredibly uncaring and disrespectful. My experience with this store represented the antithesis of customer service. Never again will I purchase anything from Best Buy, and I will certainly not renew my "maintenance" contract with Geek Squad. If I could give this organization negative stars, I would.

We have been lied to over and over at the Geek Squad phone number. The repairman did not repair our washer. All we get is a run-around from Best Buy and the Geek Squad.

Let me start by saying, I have bought many things from Best Buy, my whole kitchen, laundry, laptops, speakers, tvs, etc. and the in store experience is great! The online experience and all the managers (with the exception of the first lady I spoke with) are lazy and unwilling to help. My career is training associates for a Fortune 100 company in customer service, so I know what a good rep sounds like, and what a lazy one sounds like.
My experience started like this; I ordered an exercise bicycle on Sep 5. The soonest appointment for delivery I could schedule was Sat 12th. I took the day off, went and picked up my sister to watch my 2 month old and 2 year old since I knew I was going to spend a few hours putting it together. The day arrived and nothing/no one showed up. I did not receive a call or anything letting me know they were not going to show up.
I called and spoke with a manager. I let her know how frustrating it was, she was sweet, apologized, and said she would do whatever she could to make this right. (I liked her). I let her know at this point I didn't want a discount. All I wanted was it to get here within the next week, and also assistance putting it together since I couldn't take another whole day off with my little ones and work. She called the delivery service they use (it's third party, their excuse was that the item arrived after the guys left that day to deliver) and set everything up to work with me. I still had to take 2 mornings off that week, but that was ok since I was able to switch my schedule to work evening both days. Still a bit annoying but I appreciated her willingness to help.
Here is where it got worse. The 2nd delivery again, no one showed up. No call, nothing. Now I was very upset. But just wanted this thing here before Saturday (I had people over and we were going to exercise together). I called the customer service, spoke to someone, on hold for an hour, call was lost, I expected a call back since that associate knew my situation and had all of my information. Nothing. That definitely doesn't make you feel valued as a customer. 3 hours later I attempt to call again, at this point I want some sort of compensation for all of this, again another hour of being on hold for a manager after explaining this whole situation for a 3rd time to an associate, finally someone gets on the phone, another manager, again I tell her about the situation.
She said she will attempt to call the delivery people, I wait another 30 minutes. She finally gets ahold of them. They tell her that the item HAS NOT ARRIVED. I tell her that the first lady said the item got there late last Saturday and that was the excuse they gave her then and at this point someone is lying and it doesn't feel good as a consumer. She says she will try to help me, call is lost again when she puts me on hold. Again I think, "she will definitely call me back, why wouldn't she, I spent so much time with her and she knows my full situation." No call back.
It is now the next day and I am pissed. I call and this time I tell them to transfer me over to a manager right away. Another hour of waiting and I finally get someone. This time I took a name. Regina W. Again for a 5th time I tell her the situation. She says that she will take notes on it. I ask her to try to get me a delivery as soon as possible. SHe says she can only schedule whatever she sees in the system (I had gone the day prior to this call online to schedule an appointment myself, that same appointment is the one she is talking about). I ask her to call the third party delivery group they use. SHe says it's not in her job description to call them. I ask her how she can help me. She said she can only put notes in the system about my situation.
So at this point, this 'manager' has done nothing for me. She hasn't attempted to call the delivery group, she can't schedule anything, so I ask for some sort of compensation, I tell her how unvalued I feel. She said she can't offer me anything until the item arrives. I am now PISSED OFF. I have been polite and calm to everyone. So I ask her "What have you done for me, what is the point of your position? How can you make me feel valued as a customer?" She responds "I notated your frustrations in your file, that's all I can do". And then I hung up. WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT THIS IS ALL A MANAGER IS WILLING TO DO.
So I wait for the item to arrive. At this point I wasn't holding my breath. Well. It finally arrived 2 weeks after it was supposed to! So I call customer service, to see how they can earn my business again, hoping someone will do something, wow me. NOPE. I called, waited for 1.5 hours. Spoke to Diego, and he said he can discount $40. At this point. I am done.
I just spent $450 for a bicycle machine. I just spent 2 weeks, took 3 days off, spent countless hours on the phone, and all they were willing to offer was $40. He didn't even ask me what I was looking for. No attempt to save a customer. (For the record, the first 2 calls I didn't want money, not a discount, just the item I bought and a clear date when it would arrive. By the last call I was hoping for anything. Shoot, even a $50 gift card for Best Buy, Geek Squad service for 2 years, or even 2 year warranty on the product on the house... but nope, didn't even ask. Just "this is all we can do for you, $40, or you can return the product". So I am going to return it, and buy one from Amazon for $250, looks better, same features. 4.5 star product. And what has Best Buy Online accomplished, probably a book full of notes on my file, and lost many customers for life.

I'm very surprised because Best Buy customer service has been good to me in the past, but this is perhaps the worst customer service experience of my life. I ordered a dishwasher in early September and scheduled it for a Sept. 10 delivery. The delivery window was changed from morning to the afternoon, which was fine. I was told to expect delivery between 2 and 4, but perhaps as late as 6. The installer called me around 6:15 to tell me he would arrive by 7. 7 passes and I call him, he tells me he ran into traffic (there was no traffic in my area) and he tells me it'll likely be after 8 p.m. I told him that was way too late and I had to put my daughter to bed.
I rescheduled for a delivery Sept. 15. That delivery was a no-show. Again I called to reschedule for Sept. 18. I got a morning slot, but that changed to an afternoon slot the day before the delivery. I got a confirmation call from Best Buy and the installer that it was going to come Friday. 4 p.m. rolls around and no word, I call the installer, who then tells me the install should've been canceled because they couldn't find the dishwasher in the warehouse.
At this point I was pretty fed up with constantly switching around my daily schedule. I called Best Buy and they told me they could give me another install date the following week. I said the situation had become unacceptable and I honestly wasn't sure if this dishwasher actually existed. I asked for some sort of compensation for the 3 missed dates because at that point I had basically spent a whole day dealing with customer service. The customer service rep refused to offer any compensation and said he could only reschedule the install or cancel the order.
So I ended up canceling the order and buying the dishwasher elsewhere. I missed out on Labor Day sales, so this ended up costing me more in the end. There may not be as many places to buy appliances or electronics as years ago, but this level of customer service is abhorrent and it's a miracle that Best Buy isn't bankrupt yet. Terrible communication and they basically act like they don't want your business, so they won't get it now or any time in the future from me.

When I called Geek Squad for help they just kept saying that those were never the delivery dates even though we have emails to prove that these dates were set up for delivery. The worst part is, is that the original delivery date they came and delivered the wrong appliance. They came and picked up the wrong appliance and then told us they didn't even have the appliance we did order. Worst customer service and company I have had to deal with.

My experience with Best Buy has been absolutely awful and my family will never shop at the company again. I purchased a Frigidaire fridge from Best Buy in early August. The brand new fridge that they delivered did not work. I contacted them to seek an exchange of the fridge. They told me that an exchange would take at least 10 business days. When I explained that I could not function without a fridge for 10 days, they encouraged me to purchase a new second fridge, and promised to refund me the cost of the original fridge purchase within no more than 10 business days.
A month has gone by, and I have made three follow-up calls to Best Buy (each call has lasted ~2 hours), and I have still not been refunded for the original fridge purchase, and am now seeking recourse through Visa. Every aspect of the company's delivery and support functions have been incompetent and mismanaged. I have spent well over 20 hours dealing with the company in one month, and my issue is still not resolved. I have truly never had a worse experience with a company and would encourage all customers to avoid purchasing from Best Buy in the future.

I purchased two Appliances and warranties to go with them. When trying to contact Customer Service, immediately after purchase it was almost impossible to contact after many many days of calling, needed to go to store and again very difficult to get service!! I got email 1-Year after purchase, when my manufacturer's warranty expired from Best-Buy/Geek Squad that my warranty only covered parts not labor!!!! Tried to call Customer Service and two separated Representative said Warranty OK, in spite of their e-mail stating differently, but refused to send confirmation of labor included. I also E-Mail Best-Buy and Geek-Squad but to date never got confirmation letter or any reply after 12 days! I have detailed records of these experiences!!

I ordered a television from Best Buy in Dover, Delaware, on August 14th. I paid approximately $1,600 and was told that it would be delivered between noon and 8 p.m. on September 9th. I was to be contacted the evening before to verify the delivery. I received several text notifications during the week to remind me of the delivery but never received a phone call the night before. As of 10 p.m. on September 9th the TV has not been received. After contacting Best Buy and remained on hold a total of 55 minutes. I was told that they missed my delivery and they would reschedule to September 15th. There was never an apology and an inquiry as to what they can do to make things better they just assumed that I would wait a total of a month for the delivery of my TV without any problems. What kind of customer service does not call the customer when there is a problem with a scheduled delivery? This will be the last time that I order a large item from Best Buy.

Delivery with no delivery.. I ordered a fridge online. Due to Labor Day sales, I had to wait a week for the first delivery date. Nothing they can do about backorders. The day of my delivery they show up with a 24' truck and call me to let me know that they can't find parking (this is Los Angeles btw) for their 24' truck. They call me from one house over on the main road, maybe 30 feet away from my door. I ask them if they can just park there and drop it off at my place, but NOPE they can't be more than 100 feet from their truck. It's literally 30 feet from my front door. No calls, no emails, I call the delivery crew, Geek Squad, etc. nothing.
Finally after 6 hours I call Geek Squad again and they inform me that I have to call again tomorrow to set up delivery. I have to call.. Not them calling me. I say, "Great, so I call tomorrow and get it delivered tomorrow?" NOPE. They don't do same day deliveries. They won't deliver it today, I can't get it delivered tomorrow, how is this acceptable? Literally first time using Best Buy's online delivery, can't imagine ever shopping at Best Buy again.

My daughter purchased a pre-owned iphone7 on 7/13/20. She did not purchase Geek Squad coverage. The cost was $267.49. On 9/2/20, she was not able to listen or speak into the phone to facilitate communication. I contacted the store this morning and website. It took almost an hour to get to a human being who explained to me that because my daughter didn't buy the GS coverage that she would have to pay for any repairs recommended. This is only 45 days out of the sale. What is really outrageous is BB sells these phones but stand behind them for only 15 days. If you order a phone online with BB, they will back it for only 15 days. This is not stated in the website. The sale of iphones through BB is low-risk for the store, no warranty, and big profit for them. DON'T BUY USED PHONES FROM BEST BUY.

Please do not assume that Best Buy takes care of their customers when there is a crisis! They do not take accountability for the mistakes they make and ultimately leave you hanging. After 2 appointments with their expert who measures for appliances and 2 replacement refrigerators. I am left with a damaged kitchen cabinet door and a refrigerator that is sitting in the middle of my kitchen that still does not fit the space.
After not getting anywhere over the phone with people that kept transferring me to overseas people who left me on hold for hours and could not help me I finally went to the store where I originated the order. The Manager was a nice guy but unfortunately informed me that they do not have a refrigerator that will fit my space and after 3 months of re-measuring and reordering that's where they left it!!! And their only resolution is to refund me and start all over somewhere else or $100 towards readjusting my cabinets to fit the refrigerator in which I was quoted $500 to do. This has been the worse most traumatic experience I have ever had with any company.

I’m a single mother of two toddlers, trying to make ends meet in these especially hard times. I was able to borrow money to buy a laptop and I chose Best Buy because I gave them more credit than most places and I expected excellent customer service. I purchased a $600 HP laptop that the rep assured was a good deal and that they sell many of these. It was also $100 off at the time so I was so happy.? I take it home and I let my new job know I will in fact be able to attend training, which didn’t start 'til ten days after purchasing this PC.
A week after using it for my new job it overheats, freezes, shuts off. It’s not up to par based on what they told me when I bought it and especially the price I paid. I’m extremely upset with Apple Valley store. They refuse to work with me on anything besides spending another 200 for them to only take a look at it. I couldn’t afford to buy it in the first place. I’m not sure what makes them think I can afford an extra $200 on top of it to fix something they just sold me. I called the 800 number and the lady explained to me it is up to the manager if they choose to override the transaction and proceed with an exchange or return. All I wanted was a comp that works. Not to keep bringing in one that doesn’t and have to pay more and more.
I went 3 times and each time it was the same manager explaining there’s nothing he can do. Now I have missed a week of work because of this going back and forth trying to do what I can to get it taken care of and I can’t afford to keep missing. Thanks Best Buy for nothing. I’m out $600 because y’all have no heart. Now I have to risk going out to work vs working from home to keep my family safe.

Best Buy has a procedural problem in refunds and it needs to be corrected. I purchased an item on Saturday, 1 August, using a VISA gift card as part of the payment.

In April 2019, we purchased a new fridge online from Best Buy. We were looking for something new, but nothing that would break the bank. We found the Insignia French door refrigerator! (model number ns-rfd26ss9) It was a decent price for the type of fridge it was, so we decided to purchase it. It came with a year manufacturer’s warranty. April 2020 came and went, and despite the social conditions we were facing, we were pretty content with our chilled drinks and quality ice cubes. It never crossed our minds that we were going to be fridge-less in just a few short months!
One day, while grabbing ice from the tray, I noticed puddling inside the tray where the ice cubes were. Our freezer had completely stopped working, followed by our fridge shortly after. We called Best Buy’s Geek Squad, after waiting 2 hours, and talking to 6 different people every morning over the span of 2 weeks, the final consensus is that they couldn’t help me at all!
First it was because of the lack of warranty, and having to deal directly with insignia which led me right back to Best Buy telling me they can’t do anything for me. Not to mention, they had no record of me even purchasing the fridge. I had to go back in my emails to find the receipt MYSELF. Another day they told me it was a lack of available repair companies in my area that wouldn’t allow them to provide me with a technician. I called SEVERAL other technicians outside of Best Buy, and they don’t even TOUCH Insignia appliances. Through this debacle, I learned that Insignia is a Best Buy brand, yet BEST BUY STILL COULDN’T OFFER US A REPAIR ON OUR BRAND NEW FRIDGE.
Then Geek Squad told me to get total tech support to ensure a technician would come out and help with our issue, which cost me $212. Only to find out that it doesn’t cover refrigerators!!! Now I have a giant water fountain in my kitchen that does nothing else but shine a light on the inside of a hot empty fridge while you fill your glass with warm filtered water. Best Buy is the worst company, Geek Squad is utterly useless, and it baffles me that Insignia is still manufacturing products. A trifecta of trash.

I ordered a Fire Sense tabletop patio heater from Best Buy online and had it shipped to me. When I began to set it up, I noticed parts were used. The grill where the heat emits from showed oxidation, rust, and smelled of propane; the cylinder which houses the igniter had dirt and black residue from being outdoors and being lit. The heater looked like the warehouse put together a Franken-heater of new and used parts.
I was afraid to set it up, as it was obviously a returned item, and I paid for a new item. After finding no customer service email, I spent nearly two hours on hold through disconnected calls to customer service. After finally reaching an agent and telling her I received used parts, she responded, “Mmmm hmmm.” No “sorry it arrived that way,” nothing. She then connected me to the appropriate department for the return (more hold time) where I was finally connected to an out-of-country call center to an agent whose chilliness and dislike for her job dripped into her every clipped word.
She stated I would need to return this at my local store for a replacement. I explained that not only was the heater out of stock at my local stores, but that I live in a county with a high rate Covid-19 infections and this is why I was shopping online to begin with. She reluctantly researched if they had another to ship out to me and said it would not arrive until the following month. I gave up and just opted to get a return label to ship back for a refund. So, I will schlep the boxed heater to UPS (call center agent said they could not get UPS to pick it up) like the person who must have returned it before me. I have never experienced a more chillier and clipped customer service agent devoid of any kindness or apologies. I would like to say I will never make another purchase from Best Buy again, but since I made half of the purchase with a Best Buy gift card, I, unfortunately, will.

I ordered a new LG K 51 cell phone at full price through Best Buy online. When I received the delayed order I turned the phone on and a spinning disk and the word "erasing" appeared. There is no way a cell phone would be erasing if there was nothing to erase. The phone had been previously owned or was defective. I contacted the Best Buy Corporate Office. The customer service employee was excellent, helpful and very nice. He said return the phone for a replacement.
In the meantime, I received a "new" LG K 51 phone by UPS. When I turned it on a spinning disk appeared with the word erasing. Shortly after using the phone the screen started hopping around without being touched. The screen suddenly went black with the icons still visible. The malfunction is apparently intermittent and the phone seems to be functioning at least for now. I am stuck with it at least for now because my old phone is failing.
Best Buy Corporation is reselling returned electronics or selling defective merchandise. This is a buyer beware review. I'm putting up this review to see if other Best Buy customers have received online electronics and noticed the spinning disk and word erasing when the electronic was turned on. I bought several LG cell phones from Best Buy. None of them were erasing data when I turned them on. This could be some sort of manufacturers defect specific to the LG K 51 phones. The individual employees of Best Buy have all been excellent. This may be corporate level issue already known to Best Buy.

I would like to write about my recent experience with Best Buy and my experience with Apple. My iPhone recently had issues and needed repair. I figured no worries. I have Apple Care that comes out of my account every month for my phone. I called the store to start the repair process. However, upon looking up my phone the Best Buy employee stated there is no Apple Care on my device. I asked how this could be possible if I have been getting charged monthly for the Apple Care. The store employee was able to look up the charges and confirm Apple Care was being deducted from my account each month. After further investigation, they noticed that the Apple Care was for an iPhone 10s (a phone I have never owned as I have an iPhone 10s MAX and before that an iPhone 8). The employee said they would need to look into this further.
Next, my boyfriend took my phone into the store the following day to look into this matter further. The employees tried to figure out the matter further and after many hours were still able to resolve the issue. My boyfriend had to leave at this time. Then, my dad (the account holder for my phone) went to the Best Buy store to finally get this matter taken care of. After spending almost 8 hours back and forth between Best Buy, Best Buy customer service number, and Apple (all who kept deferring to the other to take care of the issue) my dad STILL did not have the issue fixed.
According to the manager at the St. Cloud Store, the only thing he could guess that happened is that when I purchased my phone Best Buy registered the Apple Care under the wrong phone/IMEI number. The manager said he would try to get the Apple Care transferred to the correct phone that I actually own and if worst came to worst we would have to talk to corporate to have the money, that I had been paying since purchasing my phone in 2019, reimbursed. That was the first week of trying to deal with the problem.
The next week, I attempted to call the Best Buy customer service number as the store directed my father would be best for me to do. After an extremely long hold time, I was told again that they could not transfer my Apple Care to the correct phone and I would need to contact Apple. I contacted Apple. They stated that unfortunately since it was Best Buy's error for registering the incorrect phone (one I may mention AGAIN I never owned) that they would need to transfer the Apple Care. This was after 4 hours of being on the phone so I decided to try again the next day. This continued for the rest of the week-calling every couple days, being on hold with Best Buy for multiple hours and having them either tell me I needed to go to the store to resolve the issue and/or contact Apple.
Again, I contacted Best Buy "customer service" (if you could even call it that at this point) and they would either tell me I need to go back to the store or contact Apple. I told them I had been to the store numerous times and they informed me I would need to call the customer service line. They would insist I need to go to the store. I also told them I have a 7:30-5:30 job and cannot afford to take any more time off work since Best Buy is only open 10-6 pm. They would then insist I contact Apple. I would try to inform them that it was Best Buy's error that they needed to fix and it was no fault of Apple at all. After many hours later, I was able to talk to a Best Buy representative who said she would transfer the Apple Care to the correct IMEI, I would get a confirmation email in 3-5 business days, and then I could start the repair process. I felt so relieved that this was finally taken care of!
I waited a week for the email and never received one. So much to my dismay, I contacted Best Buy customer service again to see what had happened. The representative on the phone looked up my case ID and informed me that the representative I had talked to wrote in her notes that she told the customer she would need to go to the store to resolve the issue and closed my case. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY NOT WHAT THE REPRESENTATIVE HAD INFORMED ME.
Finally, I asked to speak with a supervisor to simply get the money reimbursed that I paid for over a year for non-existent Apple Care. This would mean $15 a month times 12-24 months so about $180-360 tops. I would like to add I had been extremely nice up until this point... Now I was started to get quite frustrated after trying to get something straightened out that should have taken no more than 1-2 days max! Also, I might add I still had no working phone and my iPhone would not even turn on! The representative kept telling me she could not transfer me to a supervisor. Then finally she agreed to transfer me to a supervisor, put me on hold for 10 minutes, and disconnected the call. I tried calling back 3-4 times and it said all representatives are busy at this time please try back later.
Finally, on the 5th call I was able to reach someone and informed them I was being transferred to a supervisor and the call got disconnected. The representative said, "Oh you were the one asking to talk to a supervisor?" I said, "Yes I need to get this resolved." They said I could not talk to a supervisor, they could not help me, and I needed to talk to Apple. I said, "Fine, it is not Apple's fault at all and if you transfer me to Apple again and they are able to help I am going to be extremely frustrated."
The representative then transferred me to Apple. I explained my situation to the Apple representative and they said they would transfer me to someone in their agreements department. I was transferred to Justina. After Justina patiently and kindly listened to my situation she told me she would have this resolved. She said she felt so bad that I had to deal with this for so many weeks and could see that I had already contacted Apple numerous times. So even though it was an error on Best Buy's end and not Apple's end, she was going to do what she could to get it fixed. Justina offered to have my phone fixed for no cost to me, even repairs that would usually not be covered under Apple Care, and even if it meant I would need a new phone ultimately. This means she was willing to eat the cost, on Apple's end, for something that was not their mistake at all, for up to a cost of around $1,000-1,200.
At this point, I was in tears and thanked her so much for outstanding customer service. I would also like to add, if Justina ever had to place me on hold for an amount of time past 5 minutes she would continue to check in with me every 5 minutes to inform me she was still there and she was having multiple people reach out to the department to get my case handled quickly. She also scheduled a time to do a 3-way call with Best Buy the next day to try to get the Apple Care issue resolved for future cases. She then transferred me to someone in repairs to get the process started right away.
The repairs representative was also so kind and helpful and informed me exactly how the process would work. The box to ship my phone was shipped as expedited and they started the repair right away. Justina then called Best Buy customer service the next day with me on the phone and tried to explain the issue. Again, they said they were unable to help and I would need to talk to Apple. Justina explained again that she was calling from Apple agreements and that it was an error on Best Buy’s end so they would need to transfer the Apple Care to the correct phone. She asked for them to please start a ticket with their supervisor.
Finally, the representative said they would transfer the call to a supervisor. We waited on hold for quite some time and then YOU'D NEVER GUESS IT. The representative disconnected the call. Justina was very cordial about the ordeal and said she was going to do everything she could on her part to get this fixed. She said she would email me within 3-5 days to let me know if she was able to get it resolved. She also sent me her direct phone number and email so I would not have to wait on hold if I needed to call back with any questions.
Before the 5 days hit, she emailed me stating she made it possible for me to reinstate Apple Care directly through Apple on my correct phone, as soon as the phone was finished with repairs. This could be done for no additional fees whatsoever and having the same exact payments I had through Best Buy. Apple then helped me cancel my payments to Best Buy (that let me remind you, were being paid for absolutely nothing).
I am so so thankful for the OUTSTANDING customer service of everyone at Apple but specifically for Justina. She was so empathetic and kind and truly knows 100% what it means to provide quality, authentic, and downright good customer service. On the other side, I have never ever in my entire life experienced such horrible, rude, absolutely awful customer service as I did with every single employee and representative at Best Buy. We have been customers with Best Buy for over 10 years now and I will never purchase ANY products or be doing ANY business whatsoever with Best Buy again. I am beyond disappointed and will never recommend this company to anyone. All of my family as well as many of my friends, have now canceled all services with Best Buy and will never be doing business with them in the future.

I recently purchased a bluetooth speaker online because the line to get into a store was ridiculous at that time and I thought I could count on the delivery. However, the delivery was delayed and the email sent did NOT have a new delivery date or time. It just says that your delivery has been delayed. So when I called to get more info the first time, I was told that the driver tried to deliver my package but no one was home. Which is not true. So, I asked if the driver could come back and deliver the package and was put on hold for more than 30 mins (I know this because I forgot I was on hold until I picked up my phone to call someone else and realized that I was still on hold at Best Buy).
No one ever came back to the phone. So, I called again and this time spoke to a real winner -- some dude who could barely speak up -- ended up transferring me back to the main call line after I explained to him what had just happened. Strike two. So, I tried to reorder the speaker online (which was 40%off) only to find it back to its original price. WTF, Best Buy??
I called back a third time to find out if I could still purchase the speaker at the sale price and was told the reason my delivery was cancelled was because Best Buy ran out of stock for that item. What does it take to get a straight answer from Best Buy? The only good thing to come from my last call with Best Buy was that I was able to acquire a case number which will ensure that I can purchase the same speaker at the sale price once it is back in stock. Really, Best Buy? All that effort to get help with my lost/delayed purchase? What a nightmare. And to think that I decided to purchase from you instead of Amazon. If it wasn't for the sale price, I would buy it directly from the maker. You suck. I will never purchase another product at your store.

Purchased 6/3/20. 7/17/20 screen came up that said couldn’t reboot and no hard drive installed. Best Buy said sorry/two weeks to return/did not buy protection plan/I asked to speak to manager and they never called me back. Shouldn’t laptop last more than six weeks? Shouldn’t Best Buy stand behind their products? Shouldn’t manager return calls? Very disappointed in the laptop and with Best Buy’s support.

Bought 3 appliances, including dishwasher, from Best Buy on 5/10/19 + total Geek Squad protection plan. Best Buy overbooks so installers were rushing. The vent tube was not installed correctly causing water to accumulate in dishwasher. Fast forward. Gasket connecting vent tube was also not installed correctly so water started leaking under the sink about 4 months ago.
Best Buy contracts with A&E Factory Service, who was scheduled to arrive between 12 - 5 on 7/17/20. They get there at 7pm. Parts not on truck; had to be ordered. Next available service date to perform the actual fix, with the parts, 3 weeks later. Service tech disconnected some tubes and now I can't use my sink. I have filed a BBB complaint. The total geek squad protection plan is not "total" at all. The situation keeps getting worse. I'll probably have to pay for an actual plumber to come out and fix what they have messed up from day one. Water damage to below-the-sink cabinet floorboard and to hardwood floors.

Bought a 50' HDMI cable for $220.00. Walmart, $37. Ripped OFF! When one goes into a store to buy anything I feel that one should expect a certain level of trust that the business you are planning to do business with IS to be trusted. Best Buy shattered that trust by charging me FAR more than even the best built HDMI cable would be worth. They relied upon the fact that I had not checked other vendors. I had not. Because all of the cables available there were about the same cost, I thought that wherever I would go the cost would be about the same.
1. I will never go into Best Buy again.
2. I will let everyone I know the treatment I received in putting my trust in Best Buy.
3. I will take EVERY opportunity to tell my story on line to let All know just how far Best Buy can be trusted. I can no longer return the cable because it has been installed and cannot be removed. Even if I could return it do you think I am foolish enough to do business with them (get behind the jackass) again??

Dealing with Best Buy is frustrating even without a Pandemic. Nearly impossible to get a human being on the phone. The store manager in our location admits they make it difficult. The unavailability to talk to a human being makes getting service/warranty difficult at best. I tried on-line chat with Geek Squad. Very disappointing to wait as I imagine the agent was attempting to service others at the same time. Issue not resolved. I was able to schedule an in home appointment.

Buyer beware. I've made an extra effort as of late to not give all my online business to Amazon. I feel like we might be creating a monster with them. So I went to Best Buy, where I've bought things from recently and not had the issues I'm currently writing about. First, I ordered a television and I paid to have them hang it on my fireplace. Well, they rescheduled that appointment twice and when we got a window of time for them to come it was from Noon - 8:00 pm. That's a pretty big window but okay I accepted it. They showed up and could not install because my TV needed to be hung on stone. Fair enough, my mistake for not reading the fine print on where they'd install. But this is where the nightmare begins. I asked them to refund me the $200. They told me I needed to call Best Buy directly.
So I called, waited for about an hour (the recording said wait time up to 2 hours) only for the lady who answered my call to say I'd need to call back tomorrow after their systems had updated. I refused and asked for her manager. She said her manager would call me within 24-48 hours. I can't make this up and I'm shocked at the terrible service. I wanted to make this post so that anyone considering Best Buy really thinks about the level of service they're willing to put up with in dealing with them. I'll never buy from them again and I'll tell every person I know to avoid them at all costs. Best Buy, some words of advice: Change your customer service policies, empower your people to serve the customer, or you won't have a business.

I purchased a dishwasher from Best Buy on May 16th 2020 (Order #**) that includes installation and removal of the old dishwasher. The only reason I bought it from Best buy and not Home Depot was earlier installation appointment (5/26 rather than 6/6 for Home depot). And till today 7/7 the device is not installed. The technician came on 5/26 as promised, they could not install it because "faucet is old" and asked that it is replaced before installation. They left the new device in my garage and left. We did replace the faucet on 6/1. Called for next appointment and booked 6/10 from 12-6 PM. On that said date the team came only to take the old device and they did not have the technician with them to install the new one. So they had to leave.
We made another call and booked another appointment on 6/13. The team came and discovered that they were missing a piece that the other team did not keep with the new device. Another appointment was made for 6/24. Again only the people to remove the old one came and device is not installed yet. Booked on 6/29 and no one showed up and again booked on 7/7 and no one showed up.
In conclusion: 1. Device bought 7 weeks ago with installation and not been installed yet. 2. 6 appointments were made (each appointment within 7 hours time window) and all failed or simply no one showed up (twice). 3. Each time called for appointment, it was not possible till about 7-10 days. 4. Each time called the customer service, waited for at least 1 hour and 40 minutes just to get a representative who can only say "sorry for the inconvenience" and in reality cannot do anything for you except book you next available about 10 days later. 5. Finally today (7/7) 7 weeks later, I demanded either installation by the end of the week or full refund that representative agreed to immediately and went to check with her supervisor who informed her that device cannot be returned because of long time since purchased.
I asked to speak to the supervisor and they agreed to transfer me and after being on hold for about 10 minutes some just hanged up the phone. Tried to call back and system stated no more calls today and to call tomorrow. Of course tomorrow I would have to repeat everything again, and I do not know who I did speak to and who was the supervisor. For God sake is this the way to run business. Can a business survive with such poor inconsiderate, non ethical and non professional company and staff. This company does not care about customers at all and there is zero post sales care. During my many calls I made I had to listen to the answering machine the company keep to entertain the listener and advertise for the services and I found that all the messages were simply incorrect to say the least. I know I would never use best buy again and sure hope that you all would not as this company should get out of business. I hope.

I recently bought a new computer from the Bestbuy.ca website which was sold by TechReset located in Mississauga. The computer was a great price, through research I found it was at least $100 dollars less than other sites I visited. After it was shipped I received my order the next day as we said when I contacted Techrest via phone. It was a refurbished computer but when I received it it looked like it was new. It works great and is smooth and fast. It came with everything to just plug it in and connect it to a monitor or tv and use it. Windows 10 pro 64 bit came installed with it as well. It came with a corded mouse and corded keyboard. For what I was looking for this was a great unbeatable deal. I am very pleased with my purchase and would definitely recommend the Best Buy website for buying a refurbished computer from TechReset.
The person I talked with on the phone from Techreset was friendly, honest and knowledgeable, I asked a few questions about the shipping times and about the prices. He tried to find out the answers for my questions and one of them he said he cannot answer and pointed me in the right direction to the BestBuy website customer service for an answer. He didn't send me in a wild goose chase as some other places have when asking questions that they could not answer. I feel that they are trustworthy and honest from this interaction. In the future if or when I plan to buy another computer this is where I'll be checking first. For what I bought this was a pleasant and easy purchase. I have recommended this site to a few friends that were currently looking to buy a upgraded computer but didn't want to pay a fortune.

Worst customer service. I ordered on May 10th. Waited 6 weeks for a dishwasher. It finally comes and it was defective. The door wouldn't shut and the back of the machine has a big dent in it! The tech took it back, along with my old dishwasher after cutting all the lines so he couldn't put it back. The tech broke the casing of my disposal and since he cut the hose to the dishwasher and didn't put a cap over it now I can't use the sink because water pours out from where the hose should be attached. I agreed to get a different lower quality model because they would install it June 2nd. Get a call that it needs to be rescheduled to June 22nd!!!
I spent 5 hours on the phone today (got "disconnected" once) and 2 hours on the phone yesterday and the day before. After all that all I got was a small discount on a lower quality dishwasher that was priced higher because it wasn't on sale. Today I asked them to send a tech to fix what they broke and cap the opening and they said I would have to pay $25 for a service visit!!! They said they will give me a lousy store gift card $70 but I have to call them back after the unit arrives. They also said they would refund me but I have yet to see that on my credit card even though they already charged me in full for the new dishwasher. They have not refunding me my total tech support which is only for one year and started on May 10th and it's Iune 29th and I don't even have the product to use the tech support on!!
There some other charges I see for $49 and another for $149 that may be for the total tech ($199) but I can't be certain since they never sent an itemized receipt and the customer service doesn't know what the charges are for either. I've been a loyal customer. Got my Fridge, TV, computer and other stuff from them but after this experience I HATE BEST BUY and will never shop there again.

Wow! Just found out that the 2 year warranty I bought from Best Buy for my daughter's computer was not a warranty at all. Apparently it was a discount towards potential future repairs. Definition of warranty based on Merriam Webster is "a written guarantee, issued to the purchaser of an article by its manufacturer, promising to repair or replace it if necessary within a specified period of time".
Bought a laptop about a two years ago for around $1,000 or a little more. After about a year and a half we took it in to be repaired. Then has to take it in again, luckily it was the same issue. I was told that my warranty had a dollar limit of $1,000, which I do not remember the sales guy mentioned to me. We were told that we had already used up $800. They said they would repair at no charge only because it was the same issue. But what kind of product warranty has a dollar limit. Plus the numbers don't add up.
The profit on this warranty would have to be astronomical. So I'm paying $100 to $200 for a warranty that only covers up to $1,000 of repairs on a computer that only cost me about $1,000. And if I do file a claim then they can charge me whatever they want and eat up all the warranty, which appears to have happened in this case. In other words, it should not have cost $800 to repair a $1,000 computer unless it was a lemon in the first place. In my opinion Best Buy should not be able to call this a warranty.

We have had the same account for 27 years with our address & phone number printed on it, & have used it for purchases at Best Buy before. When we commented that we would order from somewhere else, because apparently they didn’t need our money, the store manager commented that they weren’t hurting. How rude & inconsiderate. Even after we verified our information with TeleCheck, they said to try to put the transaction through again, but would not guarantee it to be approved. I was looking at the balance of my account.

Let me start by saying I am not one to write reviews but I have never had such a bad experience with a company's customer service. I ordered a new tv from Best Buy on June 8, 2020 and scheduled the delivery for June 13 between 12 and 6 pm. My wife took off work to be there since it needs a signature to be delivered and after waiting around all day, nobody showed up to deliver the tv with no calls or emails saying they wouldn't make it. I log on to my account to see if that can tell me where it is and it says it was delivered even though it never arrived at my house.
I called customer service right away to try and get it resolved asap and waited over 2 hours to ever talk to anyone. She told me that she submitted it for review to look into what happened to it and I would hear back in 24 - 48 hours. I wait over 48 hours with no calls so I called them back and waited another hour on hold to talk to someone. They told me that it was dispatched and still waiting to hear back from the delivery company but could not get into contact with the company. I called back every day to try and get it figured out but they tell me the same thing every time. To wait 24 hours, but I never hear back.
Best Buy needs to find a better delivery company to use and hire people that know what they're doing. Nobody can actually help you there and every one of them just transfers you to someone else that is clueless and of course you have to hold for a long time and reexplain everything every time. It has been two weeks now and I still don't have my Sony 65" tv but they were quick to take my $1060. I advise anyone thinking of ordering anything through Best Buy to shop elsewhere because if there is any kind of issue with it they will not be able to help you and will make you jump through hoops to get a resolution.

I have lived in a small city that has had a Best Buy store for a lot of yrs. I honestly don't know how they stay in business.

Saw an ad for an Apple iPad with an excellent price. That should have been the clue. Tried to buy it online, their website wouldn't stay loaded. So the next day I called my local store to schedule a time to shop, as instructed. No answer. So went back online and struggled with the website for over an hour and finally got it scheduled for the next day.
When I was finally allowed in the store the following day, guess what! No product! But I did get the one thing that I can ALWAYS count on. The insincere, "I'm sorry, but you can order it online!" Went back home to try and order online and when I was finally able to get the website reloaded after every 2-3 keystrokes, I was given the info that, as you might guess, the product was not available. (And I suspect wasn't, even before it was advertised). I wish there was some way that this sort of misleading advertising could be stopped. This company cannot go out of business soon enough.

He wouldn’t do it. He told me to leave and take the stereo with me. I refused until I got the serial numbers checked. He then stated he would throw the stereo out. Everything else in box was still sealed in plastic. The box was new and sealed with clear tape. Somehow someone switched that stereo and I think if the serial numbers were to be checked with supply chain the problem could be solved. I tried customer service. Now that’s a joke. I wrote to the CEO. No one will help me with this.

Hi. Best Buy has lost my computer since last week. After numerous phone calls I still have no answer.... The worst. Hours of hold time, untrained agents. Just a mess. No follow up. I guess I will see them in small claims court.

Yesterday I purchased a Chrome Book at the Best Buy at the NW San Antonio/Ingram location because I had a laptop computer that I wanted to replace it with and was time for a new one. I got the Chrome Book for the first time tried it out and it was heaven, loved how it operate. However that night I went to bed the computer kept turning on automatically a number of times and had to turn it off, when it turned on the last time I didn't turn it off because I was getting ready to fall asleep. The next morning I turned on the Chrome Book and I had problems turning it on, but when I turned on the computer it turned off automatically and the screen showed a red battery Icon.
I contacted Geek squad and a call rep told that it was and opened box product and was used from a former customer. I also saw that the box had a UPS Ground label. So I contacted the store to see if I can get it repaired and they said they would not be able to repair it for a month. Long story short, I come to find out that is why to sold it to me for a hundred dollars less. I returned the computer and they refunded the money which was fine, but I honestly think that if they were going to sell me a computer that was open box, they should have made sure it was working properly.

I’m not one to bring my complaints online, but I’m extremely displeased with Best Buy on how they handle my lost package. I spent 1hr waiting for someone to pick the phone and then spent another 40 mins for them to tell me that they can’t help me, because they have a signed contract with UPS on how to handle customers packages and now it is my problem that I need to solve with UPS. That doesn’t make any sense! I didn’t signed a contract with UPS so how is it my problem to solve when I never received an item that was purchased from the merchant. Am I missing a point here? Can someone tell me if I’m in the wrong on this rant?

Twice, I’ve ordered something online, at Bestbuy.com, had it confirmed for pickup and had it sold out from under me by Best Buy. The most recent time I received an email telling me the exercise bike was ready for pickup. However, I ordered it for pickup at the Best Buy distribution center for Central Florida, only to find out they were closed Sunday. I thought no problem, I’m just going to change the pickup location! So I set it to a store near my house (40 miles away from the warehouse) and I was just modifying the same order. They told me was ready for pickup.
Well, I received a schedule telling me it would be at my local store in just 4 days (Makes sense, that’s the distribution center for the area right). Yeah well, 3 days after I ordered the bike, I noticed it was still in stock in the AM, but went out of stock by evening and still wasn’t showing up at my store (I figured that might mean it just wasn’t received yet)… The pickup day came and it was starting to feel like the last time they pulled a stunt like this, the hours and minutes went by, and customer service couldn’t see any bike in inventory within 500 miles of my store (These same customer service reps told me the bike was definitely going to be transferred from the warehouse to my store).
Anyway, About 15 minutes after their store closed, they set my order to delayed and said they would cancel it on me if it hadn’t been received within the next week (the status for new orders, of the bike, told me they already knew this wasn’t going to happen as it was 3 weeks out)… Of course, they didn’t change it to delayed until I complained on their forums about their bad business practices, then they conveniently decided it was best to just go ahead and cancel my order.
Going even further, they either deleted my postings on their forums, or hid them in an irrelevant section or the forums to cover up their poor customer service. In the end, I canceled my bike order, my sister canceled her bike order, and my wife canceled her plans to buy a $2000 Fridge at the store, because of the poor customer service this company has! So all in, Best Buy lost $6900 worth of sales in the span of a few days, because it was impossible to reach anybody in the company that cared at all! Oh and their Customer Service Reps are in the Philippines, they have no real access to anyone in the retail side, and basically just lie to you to get you off the phone. They were very pleasant to talk to, but almost none of what they said was true or accurate. I’m done with this store for good!

For a company revolving around computers and electronics, their online ordering system is an absolute joke. First off, I attempt to place an order and have it shipped overnight. However, they REQUIRE an account before they offer next-day shipping. OK, whatever... However, when I attempt to create the account, it says an account exists for my email. When I attempt to reset the password, it says no account associated with my email. Fine... It shows it'll be here in 2-days, so I place the order...then instantly have remorse. So per their website, you can cancel an order within 30-minutes of placing it. Nope, it refused to let me as they are "working on it" (on a Sunday around midnight). I bite the bullet and decide to proceed with the order, figuring they're being prompt and it'll be here Tuesday. Well Tuesday rolls around and I receive an email stating "There's a delay with your order." And of course I am STILL unable to cancel the order online.
Maybe their phone support can be of assistance. After dealing with pre-recordings you can't pass, being hung up on once before I could respond and finally waiting for a good 30 minutes, I finally got with someone. Of course when I explained I wanted to cancel my order and couldn't online, she seemed surprised and looked into it. But another road block... Their system was "searching inventory" thus couldn't be canceled...
Now credit where credit is due...I wish I could recall the woman's name I spoke with because she was generally pleasant to speak with. I only wish the entire process could be this nice. At any rate, I'm stuck waiting until another week unless they manage to find stock somewhere. Should the order actually be fulfilled, I will demand a refund.

My experience with Best Buy delivery service my entire life has been terrible and today was no exception. I ordered a freezer. I had a person call the night before and say they would be here around 2:00. I got a text message the next afternoon at 12:00 saying they were on their way. No one ever showed up. I started calling Best Buy at 6:00 and have called several times, always put on hold and never reaching a real person. I have spent 1 hour and 46 minutes on hold. I wasn't surprised my delivery did not show up because that's pretty normal for them.
Now I can't say what will happen tomorrow with Best Buy but my past experience says, no one will contact me... I will have to hunt someone down and tell them my freezer never arrived. They will say they have been very busy. They are sorry and then schedule my delivery several days away. Just don't expect to get your delivery when you schedule it is all I'm saying. If you lower your expectations, you can't be disappointed.

They don't deserve the 1 star review!!!! There was an online fraudulent charge to this company. Due to this, we had to get a new card from our bank. We called customer service to let them know to cancel the order since it is fraudulent. The lady on the phone lied about not speaking to us anymore. I've worked in retail for many years and what she had said was a flat out lie. She was perfectly okay with lying. They refuse to cancel the order just so they can get that $300.
Be aware and never ever shop here. Your card will get stolen and they will not cancel the order even if it's on hold at your bank. Customer service sucks and they will refuse to help you what so ever just so they can make their money. Do not give this company money, they let criminals use someone else's card(s) to make orders fraudulently and they are perfectly okay with that. They won't even refund the money either. The package will have an address and the police department has been notified. And the names of the stupid lady liar and the supervisor have been given to the police for fraud charges against them also since they've done this.

DO NOT BUY - Up until now, I was very satisfied with Best Buy. I've bought many products from them. Everything from smart watches to speakers, laptops, etc. However, they have screwed me tremendously. I recently placed 2 separate pre-orders through them for The Child 11 inch plush. Now, this is a hot item because of its popularity. I was planning to give these to my baby cousins.
Where it went terribly wrong...first, I receive an email that there was a delay. Fine. This can happen. No worries. Then, they email me weeks later that the delay email was sent by error and it will be sent by the original delivery date. Good news. Then, I get an email that both my orders were cancelled for no reason. Keep in mind that I placed my orders about ~5 months ago and only now do I hear about the cancellation. Given the demand of this product, it is now sold out everywhere, in which back when I placed the order, I could've ordered it elsewhere while available. Now, Best Buy screwed me big time.
Insult to injury, I just received another email that the cancellation was made by error and I can reorder the products through a link. I click the link and it says the product is sold out. How does a company your size not exactly know the quantity of how much your customers can order and you joke and tease by back and forth emails, which in the end you say, "thanks for pre-ordering with us almost half a year ago, we can't match the demand so we'll cancel your order for a full refund. No harm, right? Whom would've received your present doesn't want it or need to get it right?". Good job Best Buy.

Complaint. I am the unlucky customer, who had purchase the set of LG Washer and Dryer with big problems, misunderstandings, errors at every step, delays with delivery, messed up messaging and 3 attempts to deliver those items. Entirely it took 2 weeks for the items finally delivered completely! Order # ** in the store # 563, My Best Buy ID **.
My experience is illustrating the bad business practice at your enterprise. It is disoriented, irresponsible, incapable employees on every step and No ONE feels responsibility. No one knows what is going on – everybody is clueless and disengaged. Especially at the corporate office. I would like to describe my torture by your WORST Buy enterprise.
I placed an order with Mrs. Rosita ** - very well trained, knowledgeable, effective and understanding. Late on I discovered that she is actually Appliance Manager and I understood - why. Coming home I got text message from Best Buy, that my items are not available, not available anywhere and I need to reschedule delivery (it was 2 hours after purchase). Text message also offered the link to log in to the Best Buy website for rescheduling. Well, the link brought to the option where I should name the order number – the system did NOT find it. I started going by the name and ZIP – same result – my order was NOT located.
In panic I contacted support on the website. There was an agent Joriem. This person was NOT informed about anything I asked about. Not about what is happening, what should be done, why site couldn’t find my order ... No Knowledge at all!!!! – Useless (why did he get paid??? Where did you find such useless employees????). It took me 20 minutes to listen his versions that … there is NO any machine available not in the store (I was just holding it in my hand 2 hours ago in the store), not in the warehouse and maybe not in the country. I couldn’t stand that nonsense and rushed to the store, which is just 0.5 mile from my home.
In the store I asked the employee (I guess on duty right at the door), that I would need to see the manager because of issue with my order. And I would be waiting at the Appliance section. Then I met Rosita again. She quickly understood the situation, checked the stocks and showed me, that LG units were in fact in the store storage, in the local warehouse and several of them. It calmed me down and I agreed to wait for the next day delivery. Leaving the store I again came to that persona “on duty” (?) asking why didn’t he tell the manager I am waiting for him. I was in shock! - He was looking right into my eyes with a smirk and said NOTHING ! He didn’t care about customers, business, anything… He was just an empty useless spot. What a shame!
The story goes. The next day I received text that units will come between 2 and 4 pm. No, they didn’t arrive in that time frame. Not at 4, at 5, just at 6. Such wasting my time (FOR MY MONEY!) drove me mad. I said that to both guys delivered units. Those 2 gentlemen were working hard and quickly, very knowledgeable and supportive. They hooked up the washer, tested it and opened the box with dryer, which happened to be damaged - on both sides of the unit. The guys made pictures and I saw, that packing of the units was Wrong! Packaging did NOT have any protecting layer along the sides – only narrow (2 inches wide) blocks of it in the corners. Of course whenever the forklift is picking up the unit at the warehouse – it is damaging the unit right away. (How do you like such losses????). So the unit was sent back.
The team of technicians connected me with personality at the corporate office who did NOT apologize to me for this situation, didn’t represent himself to me (no name seems like), didn’t give any explanation of the case, didn’t tell if he is capable to set up the next date for delivery, didn’t clarify anything. That conversation was useless and demonstrated complete incompetence of that employee (much less competent than technicians that delivered, installed the equipment). That is your Disgrace - incapable staff. And it is not the end of story yet.
It was very difficult to set up the next delivery date as only one day was available – Friday, so I took that one. This time different team arrived, yes around the promised time, unloaded the unit and... It was damaged Again and exactly the same way. New pictures made, sent to the corporate office, same useless persona talked to me without any sorry, any explanation and any suggestion – useless people (why are you paying their useless presence!?)
And the situation became tricky to me, as there is no delivery on weekend and the next week I had cancer radiation treatment in Moffit Cancer Canter in Tampa – so would be out of town! The corporate personality said he is not able to meet my requests and on and on. I hang up on this useless person, went online and scheduled the next delivery on the date when I COULD come over from Tampa. It was VERY hard to do and your people are not supportive at all. They do NOT care about customers as soon as they receive our money. It is Disgrace!
So on the 12th of March the unit was delivered. Likely it was not damaged (but we checked - the packaging was same awful – no protective layers – nobody cares!). I have never deal with any business that much indifferent in customers satisfaction, even in doing their job Right. This is the Worst Buy company ever! You do not deserve any support and any appreciation for the VERY POOR level of operations you sell. I do not have any respect for irresponsible people and businesses like you and yours. And I am requesting Monetary satisfaction for all the diminishing torture I had from your poor business ethics. No Regards. Pay me back accordingly. L. **

I just saw another ad from Best Buy as I was scrolling through my notifications this morning. Then I checked through a search on Google if the company still treats customers like criminals and garbage. It looks like they certainly have not changed policies or practices. My horrific Best Buy left me mentally scarred and on a life-long boycott of their horrible company. My experience was in the mid-1990s, so there has been plenty of time to change policies and train employees to treat customers kindly. I have NEVER seen ANYTHING like this in any other store EVER.
My personal experience: First, let me say that I am a short, blond teacher who looks and dresses like a teacher. At the time of my experience, I was shopping for about 5 electronic devices to improve my tutoring private practice because of new computer-based therapies - a new computer, printer, a CD player, and - I can't remember the others. The total cost was going to be somewhere between $1,500 to $2,000 at that time. I also had (and still have) a mental illness of social anxiety disorder, also known as social phobia, so I was nervous just to be in an unfamiliar store and was not shopping around. I thought I was in a place to get the "best buy."
Even though I was a Masters level teacher (now PhD level), I was wanted to find what I liked and then bring in my husband for his approval because he knows electronics better. Here's where things went bad. I was shopping for multiple items and wanted to be sure I could show him the items I had decided on, so I was writing down the items on a pad of paper. Big mistake!!!!
A salesperson approached me and asked if I needed help. I replied no, I was just shopping. A minute later, the manager approached me and asked if he could help me. Again, I said no, but I would ask if I needed help. His entire demeanor suddenly changed and he told me to leave the store because I was a spy for the competition. I had an immediate panic attack. (As I'm typing this review, I still get emotional, and I've had years of therapy due to this situation!!) He then proceeded to follow me to the front door shouting loudly that spies are not allowed in their store and that I was not welcome and saying over and over and over again that I was a spy. I went to my car and sobbed uncontrollably for about a half hour. When I could gain a little control of myself, I was angry to be treated in such an embarrassing and harassing manner. I decided to go back in, talk to the manager, and demand an apology.
When he came back to the check out counter to talk to me, he took me into a supply closet to talk privately. I panicked again, thinking this guy was going to rape me or something. I explained to him between gasps for breath what my business was and what I was shopping for and gave him my business card and ID. His response was to say he still thought I was a spy, he had every right to ask me to leave the store, and his apology was that he was sorry I was upset. No, he wasn't!!! And that was NOT an apology.
I wrote a letter to corporate. No response. I probably should have used at that time for all of the mental trauma this caused me. In the mid-2000s, I saw a tv commercial from Best Buy blatantly showing customers getting advice at their store, but purchasing similar items from a store like Walmart. I sent a email to Best Buy corporate about the commercial and asking if they had changed their policies. I received a phone call from a customer service rep and was finally given what seemed like a genuine apology for my experience, but then was told that the in-store policies had not changed and managers are still able to do what was done to me. Unbelievable! In the USA!
Now in 2020 when everyone is dealing with Covid-19, a Best Buy ad pops up on my phone. But I didn't see the normal option to unsubscribe or block their ads. I will NEVER shop in a Best Buy store, on their website, or even their products on third party sites like Amazon or Ebay. I do not understand how this evil company is still in business. I know I am not the only one to have had negative experiences with their company!
I can say that in all of my life (and I'm nearing retirement now), Best Buy is the WORST company in the USA from my opinion. As per the Consumer Review policy, I am not paid by Best Buy (LOL) or any other company or individual for my review. I honestly hope people stop shopping at Best Buy and put them out of business. But since that doesn't seem likely, I do not want ANYTHING to do with their company, including have their ads in my face on my phone!

To preface, I understand that with everything going on in the world right now, there are WAY bigger problems to worry about. I am definitely NOT angry at the fact that my package will not be delivered on time. I'm a grown man, and I can handle that. Also, as a former support rep, I understand that it's usually not the rep's fault, so nothing personal there for them as well. What bothers me is how this issue was handled (or, in this case, not handled), as they had about a year's worth of time just to update a simple shipping address!
I pre-ordered an item back in June 2019. 2 months pass, and I move to a different apartment. Obviously, I need my shipping address changed. I give Best Buy a call in August 2019, they tell me that they cannot modify the shipping address until a few months out from the ship date (March 20, 2020). I call again in December 2019, they say they cannot update the shipping address until a month out. I call back in Feb 2020, they say that they cannot adjust the shipping address until a tracking number is generated. A tracking number is generated on March 19th 2020, I call them again. They tell me that the shipping address has been adjusted, and it will be sent to the correct address on time.
On March 20th 2020, the item is still in route to the wrong address. Spoke to a rep, they just said 'Sorry! We'll fix this so that it will not happen in the future'. Okay? How about right now? You think I want to come back after this? I would understand if I wanted until the last minute to change the address, but I've been trying to get it updated for about a year. You're telling me a big company like Best Buy doesn't have the resources to fix this issue within that time frame, let alone, give the customer an option to update on their end? Every time I tried, it just told me to contact support!

My wife and I purchased the MVWC565FW Maytag Top Load Washer Deep Water Wash. It is advertised as a heavy duty washer. We have no kids or anything and we wash an average of maybe 1 load of wash per day. In 1 year and 10 months the motor was burned out. I contacted BestBuy "Customer Care" on 3/12/2020 and they could only refer me to a repair specialist. I was told flat out that the unit has no coverage. Yes, the washer has a sticker that says "10 year warrant" right on the lid. Customer Care at BestBuy said they could not offer me any type of discount on a new washer or the repair. The Customer Care agent said she understood why I would be disappointed with the unit failing so quickly but she was not allowed to do anything to assist me.
I paid close to $600.00 for this "commercial grade" washer and it could not withstand a year and 10 months of use from two people. As a principle I can never buy anything from BestBuy again. I understand they did not make the washer but they sold it and they should stand behind what they sell. And, would it have hurt them to offer some small incentive to a customer who has purchased over $5500.00 in appliances from them in the last 3 years? Just a terrible customer service experience. When I asked who I could call that could help me, I was told that Customer Care doesn't have access to store manager information or phone numbers, and I would have to find out for myself. I was very polite and after an hour I had no more information than when I started. All of this for a $600 washer with a 10 yr warranty label. BestBuy should be ashamed.

Best Buy is a good place to shop. The in in-store customer service is good, not great. With majority being young, some are impatient with the older customer and fail to thoroughly explain the technical differences of phones, TV’s and other electronic systems.

Work computer crashed. Went to Best Buy Gaithersburg MD. Picked computer. Out of stock. Sales person said they can order and ship. Told her we needed ASAP. She said, "No problem. I will expedite your order and won’t charge shipping. Your computer will be there Tuesday." No problem. Monday was holiday so no downtime at work. Well at 3 AM Tuesday morning receive text that order is delayed, however if not shipped by 3/19 they will cancel. Went back to store to cancel and get refund as I need computer right away. Losing money since unable to work (self employed). Customer service said can not cancel. Have to wait till item received to return. I said I was told it was expedited. Nope not expedited so can not cancel.
She then said, "Oh it’s waiting pick up from FedEx or UPS today from warehouse." I said, "Will I get tomorrow?" Her response, "Yes I think so." Go back to office. Call customer service. Gentleman said, "No she mislead you, you will probably get delivery within 7-10 days but definitely by 03/19." Nothing but lies.

What I particularly like about Best Buy is that I always find an extremely wide, and in stock, selection of items for which I am shopping. In the rare event an item is out of stock, Best Buy immediately orders it for me online, and I always receive that item within three days with free shipping. In this day and age when there is so much online shopping, it is a breath of fresh air to actually go into a real store and see the merchandise first-hand before making a purchase. In just the past few weeks, I have purchased a wireless bluetooth speaker, an Apple TV, and an external DVD drive for my laptop. I give Best Buy a complete thumbs up!

From the time you walk in the entrance you can expect to be approached multiple times by employee offering to help you in finding or deciding what product you need. When it comes to electronics be it TV's to smartphones there is an expert at every turn. I really like how you mind may be made up on the more expensive device or tv but they will not only steer you to a better option. Most time you save money in doing so. That in my book deserves an excellent customer service rating. The employees may be commission based in pay but that doesn't reflect one bit the quality of options they offer. So in my book Best Buy is the best but when comes to any and all electronics phone, tv, audio car and home, headphones, gaming consoles laptop, computer and appliances etc. Thanks is all can end with.
