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. The phone lines are rarely answered or you have to wait for unimaginable lengths of time. They sell you what you ask for and don’t bother to suggest options.

I really like shopping at Best Buy online because they had so many deals especially around the holidays. I shopped online and in the store employees were very nice and helpful. Also they were able to recommend products and were very knowledgeable on the different items I inquired about.

Over the years, I have purchased 2 tvs and 4 laptops. I like the fact that you can pick a time to get your laptop looked at and/or serviced. I bought the plan for 2 years. The people are right on the money with their knowledge, helpfulness and ability--and polite. I will always go to them for items. I have purchased a number of smaller items; ink jet cartridges (I bought a printer/fax machine from them and still have it 15 years later and it works), several mouse pads and mice; small audio speakers anything electronic I go there and only there even if the items are small. BTW, I still have the floor model LG TV I bought from them in 2010; it still is working and it was the floor model!!

The last couple of visits to the store Best Buy the staff were very helpful, very knowledgeable and seem to be more interested in what I needed rather than upselling a product I did not really need or could not really appreciate the advantages that most salespeople would stress. The focus seemed to be the best value for the dollar I was going to spend. Excellent service. I wish I could remember the sales reps name.

Have shopped at Best Buy for many years now - and I can only say the young people that work there, are wonderful! They are extremely patient and knowledgeable! As a senior citizen who has trouble keeping up with all the rapid changes in technology, the patience they have is most helpful. Their explanations, the assistance they provide has helped immensely. Whether I'm purchasing a new computer, TV or what have you, they are always right there to help!!

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. I bought computer from another company and will return the Best Buy one upon receipt. Bottom line don’t trust Best Buy.

Best Buy is my go-to store for electronics. The employees are courteous, knowledgeable, helpful and overall pleasant. I have never had a bad experience at Best Buy with any purchases or employees. I always recommend them to friends because I want them to see and share my experiences.

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!

Best Buy is a great stop to shop at, I usually shop online and have not been disappointed. If you have your emailed registered with them, then it is especially a plus. You will get email updates and information on your purchase, deals of the day, etc. They also offer price match guarantee (which is a time saver.) I've compared their price match many times to see if they actually have the correct lowest price and it always seems to hold up. Customer service whether online or in-store have always been knowledgeable and helpful.

I love that I can buy well made electronics for the price of a sale item at a big box discount store and purchase an extended warranty at Best Buy. I also bought grandkids presents there - the ones they really wanted. Once the FedEx guy scanned my package delivered but I didn't have it. I called Best Buy and they were super nice, apologetic and overnighted a duplicate order to me. I was so relieved because it was birthday presents.

You cannot rely on the associates at Best Buy working in the cell phone area. They don't know what they are doing. I bought an unlocked phone and what they told me was the correct sim card for my phone and Sprint service. It was not the right card. I had to drive back to the store (1 1/2 hour round trip) to return the wrong card, and they gave me a hard time about getting my money back when it was their mistake. I finally got my money back, but it was a pain and a lot of wasted time.

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.

They have tons of employees yet none of them could help me and I I was shocked by how outdated products were being sold at high prices.

I got my money back but wasted my time and had I gone a day later I would have been stuck with another store credit I could likely misplace and never use. Also I bought a refrigerator which was delivered by an incompetent 3rd party, I wasn't told I could hire my own Uhaul and get a guy to help me instead I paid $125 for delivery of an already expensive item. They didn't have the vacuum I wanted so Target delivered it the next day to my house.

We will keep your order open and continue to work on getting your item(s) to you until March 07, 2020. If your item(s) are still not available by this date, we'll cancel the item(s) and notify you via e-mail....". So I wait for 7 days then I called back, they said because my credit card have an issue and I never received any notification about that. The only email I received is the email above. I called the help desk and ask if I can buy the same items with the discount that I bought earlier.

It is the offer of a one year tech support of computer, and other electronic devices for $200 that got me into the Best Buy stores. In one trip to the store they upgraded 3 computers, two phones, and one Samsung pad. If I had gone to another place I would have paid much more to have all that done. While I was waiting I saw they had an area for open box appliances. I checked it out because I needed a new refrigerator and washer. The open box prices were so good I bought both appliances. I used the tech support for all my appliances for 2019 and saved hundreds of dollars. It has been so good that I renewed for 2020 and have recommended it to my friends.

This Best Buy is in Daytona Beach, FL. It's a spacious store, but it is overwhelming, it doesn't feel comfortable to shop in there. Employees are available, and they are somewhat helpful, but somehow the store doesn't have a feel that makes a person walk around and shop. It has a large parking lot, which is usually packed. The store is located in a busy area, so lots of traffic. For some reason Best Buy just doesn't offer good service to their customers. It seems when people recommend a product, it is not based on empirical knowledge but on reading some type description.
When things go wrong there is no support, they have a very limited return policy. Maybe we expect too much out of them. After all they are not electronics specialists. They are people working an hourly job that pays minimum wage. The delivery reliability is atrocious, and there is a total disconnect between the stores and their 800 number. The 800 might be called Best Buy, but it seems that it's a different company, they have no ability to help with a store issue, and the store seems to not be accountable to anyone.

I went back to Best Buy and told them of the problem. Without hesitation they said they would gladly have me pick out another TV and they would arrange to have it delivered and installed at no extra charge. Needless to say, I was speechless. A great store to deal with.

I'm not a techie so I really rely on my local Best Buy to help me find what I need to fit my need. While all staff have been helpful I honestly look for Rosie when I go in because she is SOOO helpful finding the particular model that will work for me. I might go in thinking I need such and such but after talking with staff them can suggest what will really fit what I want. I have never felt rushed in or talked down to by them. Staff is wonderful.

Worked online for phone charger with Best Buy. The ease of shopping was great. The pick-up process was superb. It was quick and easy. So much better than other vendor experiences. It literally took me less than 5 minutes to park the car, enter the store, go to the "pick-up" line and secure my purchase from on-line.

Although they have a variety of items they do not have enough sales persons available to help the consumer. I also believe that they are a little overpriced. Cut down on some items because they give too many choices.

Best Buy online has always been great. Purchases arrive quickly and are as described. When I purchase online and pick up in the store, that is usually a good experience, as well. Sometimes there is a wait, usually no more than 5 or so minutes, while you wait to pick up the item(s) you purchased online. When I shop in store, I am always asked if I need help finding what I’m looking for. I am always greeted when I walk in and thanked when I walk out, by the employees who monitor the door. I am happy to shop at Best Buy and am satisfied the vast majority of the time.

Best Buy, for the last several years, has been the only true electronics and appliance store that still has a brick and mortar retail presence. It used to be that there were quite a few choices in this area, with Good Guys, Circuit City, etc. Now, there really is only Best Buy if you want to get in the car and walk into a store to shop for your items in person, which I happen to love. If I'm buying a 750 Camera, I want to see it in person, hold it, ask about it. Same with a computer, or dishwasher. The prices at Best Buy are fair and competitive and the sales staff is VERY knowledgeable. And, of course, there is the Geek Squad. They installed my last home theatre system and did a FANTASTIC job. Top level service and support all the way around. So, if you want to deal with an actual person and you want to see and hear the electronics you are buying BEFORE you buy them, then you really do want to give Best Buy a look. I've never been disappointed.

I am so disappointed in the Best Buy Geek Squad. Heard so many good things about it. Took my computer in to see why it wasn’t charging. They charged me $85 to send it out for three weeks and came back with they couldn’t repair it because it was an older model. Took it to a local computer shop WOW!! all it needed is a new AC adapter charging cord. Geek squad couldn’t have figured that out when they looked at the end of my AC adapter and saw that it was cracked when I was at the store? And it was pointed out to them. They had to send it out with the charging cord to Kentucky for 3 weeks and they couldn’t figure that out. So they took my $85 & were no help whatsoever! I take it to another Computer repair store. Five minutes later they said, " Oh it’s just your AC charging cable." I purchased one for $45 and we’re done. My computer now works again imagine that. I WILL NEVER TRUST OR GO BACK TO GEEK SQUAD AGAIN!!!
Before this we purchased a computer for my son for College at Best Buy. He has had a few issues with it running slow, battery not charging to 100% & have sent it out twice and they still have not been able to figure out what the problem is. Wouldn’t have used them had I not been convinced to buy the warranty and the in-store help program. So now I’m out $400 for that because truly they are no help. All they do is send it and your computer is gone for three weeks with no answer when you get it back. My son’s battery simply isn’t charging 100% we haven’t had it for a year yet and they can’t figure out why it’s not charging. We have the replacement program why not just put in a new battery and let’s be done with it at geek squad at the store instead of sending it out and making him lose three weeks of use of his computer when he is at college.

I have a personal and a business account with Best Buy, both of which I plan to close due to the gross incompetence of Best Buy and its staff. I have witnessed Best Buy going downhill over the last few years and will never work with Best Buy again. In recent corporate purchases Best Buy repeatedly shipped to the wrong location, then when we gave up on shipping and scheduled a in store pick up, Best Buy totally screwed that up as well
This past week I purchased a very expensive TV over the phone speaking with William ** (**). I had limited time as I was on my way to a business meeting, when called with the model number and simply needed to place the order and schedule the install. This process took 45 minutes. I could have purchased the same TV online on Amazon in 5-minutes. William ** had problems; placing the order, scheduling the install, figuring out what to charge for the install, and taking a credit card over the phone. The process of just taking the credit card took 20 minutes, William ** kept blaming the Best Buy computer system during the entire process.
During this long process I noticed that Best Buy had the wrong business address for my company, so I provided the updated address. When I was sent the receipt, I noticed that William ** did not update the address. This entire process of working with Best Buy and William ** was extremely frustrating and is reason enough that I would not order anything from Best Buy again but there was more.
During this 40-minute process William ** confirmed the install date to be Saturday February 2nd. On Friday February 1st I received a call from Best Buy to confirm my delivery and install for Wednesday February 5th? When I explained to the representative that I had a firm date of Saturday February 2nd he said well he had nothing and could not do anything about it. I then called William ** again and he once again blamed the Best Buy Computer system. I then asked to speak with a manager and he said his manager Angela ** (**) did not take calls that I would have to e-mail a explanation and at some point she would respond to the e-mail.
Never at any point did anyone from Best Buy accept blame, apologize or offer any solutions other than scheduling another date. Best Buy also has offered no compensation or all of my time that they have wasted. If this is the level of service, you are looking for then you are in good hands with Best Buy. If not, there are a lot of other options and I would avoid working with Best Buy at all cost.

I ordered a Haier washer/dryer combo from Best Buy because their price was the best and they seemed to provide the best service options. I bought installation service and 5-year Geek Squad warranty. The product was delivered by a third party installation service (they were great), but seemed not to know anything about the product they were supposedly going to install. I had tried to get information before installation on what I needed to do on Best Buy website, when I saw that the install service had me buy a ventilation kit for the unit that has a ventless dryer system. The third party deliverers said they would take the vent kit back for a refund (never happened). Also, they said I needed a 220 outlet, when the online manual clearly stated that it must be connected to a 120 volt grounded outlet. So, they would not install it. I had to call an electrician who came out and saw the connections for a 220 install that Best Buy also required me to buy for installation.
Then, during first time use, the door locked and showed an error. I called Geek Squad for someone to come take a look. The Geek Squad representative was not helpful. The representative knew absolutely nothing about the appliance. He told me the error was for air vent (that the appliance does not require--as it is ventless). I told him it was ventless and he made me feel like I didn't know what I was talking about. He said their repair service didn't apply for another year anyway and that I'd have to call GE appliance store. I told him it was Haier and he told me it was the same thing as GE and gave me a number to call. I said they should probably make all of this more clear when a customer is purchasing a product and he told me that's just how it is.
I called the number he gave me for GE appliances which did not recognize my number as having purchased the product. I looked up Haier customer service and they were great! Got an appointment with them immediately. I feel like Best Buy and their Geek Squad charged me for parts I didn't need and a service that was useless. I would like to contact customer service but they make it almost impossible. That's why I'm leaving a review here... Hoping it might save at least one person the frustration.

Same disastrous, dare I say more disastrous, story as other customers of Best Buy. My elderly mother bought two top of the line dishwashers to be delivered on the same day and installed in two locations about a mile apart. They showed up with one dishwasher for one location. Receipt clearly indicated same day delivery for both. Rescheduled two weeks out for the other, then they cancelled and pushed it back another two weeks.
When they finally arrived, we had an installer, but no dishwasher. Same old “blah, blah, blah” from the installer, “thought the dishwasher was already here”. My mother and wife spent all afternoon at the store where the purchase was made (Niles, Ohio) after waiting all morning for the installer who was empty handed. Store manager (corporate) assured them he would get to the bottom of it and contact one of them by the end of the day, already being late afternoon by then. After a week went by without hearing anything at all from anyone, I spent over ninety minutes on the phone trying to get in contact with someone, anyone! Several hours combined on phone, mostly on hold or being transferred around.
Eventually made arrangements to go back to store to get delivery straightened out at which time they gave us $100 off for inconvenience (back to that in a minute). Rescheduled another week out between seven a.m. and noon. Of course no one showed up at all. Started calling again at one in afternoon. After all that inconvenience, I was informed I would have to make another trip back to the store (fourth trip now). At that point it was four in the afternoon and I just asked for a refund as we’d given them all the time under the sun to get the job done. It was then that they arranged for a refund by mail MINUS the $100 off for the inconvenience that they were TAKING BACK. We had spent three full days waiting on our own time not even including hours and hours on the phone, and still never even got the product.
Mind you, this was a nearly two thousand dollar dishwasher (2) order that was already paid for in advance. Absolute and total bungling and incompetence from top to bottom! Would never ever consider buying anything from Best Buy ever again! I would rather pay a few bucks extra for a legitimate company and no headaches. It defies logic that this is one of the top retailers in the country. Worst customer service ever, and I am over a half century old and have dealt with my share of poor service. This takes the cake though. I would encourage any consumer to look elsewhere for your purchases. Keep in mind that Best Buy doesn’t sell anything you can’t get somewhere else. Save yourself the grief and keep in mind that Best Buy could care less! If I could give no stars I would.

Then it would auto-reload and show a different price. So I would refresh and it would show the price I added it as, then reload and up the price. I talked to someone and they said that just because it is in your cart, the price is not guaranteed - WHAT?! I was going to pay for something in my cart.

I purchased a NordicTrack S15i from them online. A soon as I placed the order, issues with the delivery started. I called customer service multiple times. Spoke to Jamie the first time and Christine the second. It was overwhelmingly clear from both conversations that their job is not customer service, but how do I make this customer go away. I mentioned to Jaime that I was going to write this and he became very excited. Told me his last name and seemed ecstatic that I would mention it as if it was some sort of badge of honor. When I spoke to Christine she had the very same attitude and seemed excited when I told her that I want to cancel the order, and just buy it somewhere else.
It was as if knowing that a customer had been lost and was going to shop with a competitor was a job well done. I don’t really have an issue with the purchase, as I understand items go on backorder and become discontinued. Spending a month dealing all of this was not fun, but I’m flabbergasted with the level of disrespect I received from Best Buy customer service.

Best Buy will lose a lot more than $30.00 for this screw job. I'll shop elsewhere in the future. I really have a hard time with big stores taking advantage of the 'little guy'.

Yesterday I was looking for a 128 SD Card Class 10 and very fast. I saw that Best Buy was selling them at $80 off at $24.99. So my local store didn't have anymore for sale online BUT I was allowed to reserve one for myself that they would hold for 24 hours. I was very excited that I'd found one and was going to get it this morning...well I checked my email this morning and read an email from 10:00AM from Best Buy telling me that they were sorry, that the store didn't have any left! What??? Well what good is reserving a product if they are just going to sell it out from under you, I am not very happy! What do they think RESERVE means??? Dianne

On Dec 27th. I took my PC to my local Best Buy in Roseville Michigan to have my power button fixed or a new one put in. Now that is all I wanted the techs to do. Just the button. Did not ask for anything else to be done on my computer. Was running fine until the button issue which had to be pressed anywhere from 3 to 20 times before it would boot. There were no other issues but the power button. So what do they do? They do a diagnostic and remove some corrupt and viruses and supposed fixed the power button. They tell me it's ready for pick up. They plug in and wham. Error pop up and now takes over 15 minutes to boot to desktop screen I brought it with. It starting right up after multiple button pushes but when it did start it was very quick. I told them I would not accept it like that. To take it back and repair THEIR mistake.
As of today Jan 1st I have no computer. Still in Geek Squad. Ok so maybe I should have brought it home and just lived with but as I said I brought it in booting and working except for multiple power button pushes. I have called everyone on this except Congress or written complaints. All get is, "I am sorry" or "I understand". No resolutions. I called the tech that is supposedly working on it and asked if he could go to system restore to an earlier time. His answer is, "I cannot even get into system restore." Colossal screw up on their part. So here I sit on Jan 1st no computer. No follow up. No resolution. No definitive answers. I should not have to go to the store and take home a computer that is not working correctly when it was their error. But it appears I will have to do just that and run it as best I can. I am just so angry. HELP.

Unfortunately Best Buy and Samsung have lost a customer as I have gotten absolutely no service with our 16 month old Samsung 75 inch QLED series 7 tv. Our tv stopped working 3 weeks ago and after spending 150 dollars to have Samsung service come out twice they tell us we need a new panel and it will cost 1800 dollars. I didn’t purchase the service contract as I should have but still don’t expect to be out all my money on a purchase like this and expect either Best Buy or Samsung to want to do something to keep us as customers. But all I get is call Samsung or call Best Buy but at the end of the day all I get is being hung up on and absolutely no service whatsoever. I will only purchase a tv again from BJ’s or Costco as they double the manufacturer warranty and it will for sure not be a Samsung. I have already went back to iPhone and will be replacing all my Samsung appliances soon.

On December 24 2019 I had a technician from Best Buy come look at a tv o bought on July 2019. Apparently there was power going to the tv but there was no picture. The technician said he would order the parts and that I will receive the part on Sunday December 29. Around 5 pm I called Best Buy customer service and made them aware that I still didn’t receive the part. They looked it up and told me that it will be at my residence by the end of the day on Sunday. I got a email confirmation from Best Buy stating that the technician will be at my residence on Monday December 30th to repair the tv.
I called back and spoke to a couple more representatives in which they put me on hold and hung up the phone and didn’t bother calling me back when my contact number is on file. So first they lied and then hung up. I then called primary customer service in which a customer representative gave me a case number and told me with that I can bring the tv into Best Buy and that they would exchange it for me. I guess that’s lie number 2 because Best Buy informed me that I need a RA number to have it swapped.
After I dismounted the tv from the wall and spent 3 hrs at Best Buy in Levittown LI. I called customer service once again and once again I was told that a manager would call me back in which I never received a call. That’s two times they said management would call and they didn’t. Now they are telling me the part will be here on Friday the 3rd and they set up a date to repair my tv without confirming with me if that date is ok. Bottom line is that Best Buy representatives are very unprofessional and don’t know how to deal with their customers. I’m an Elite customer who bought all my electronic needs at Best Buy and more but that will change.

Sebastian from IHA recommended that instead of placement over the fireplace we instead exchange the TV for a 55" Samsung Frame TV so that it would look like a framed picture and there would be no hinges or wiring that would be visible. He recommended a certain kit as well which we ordered and exchanged for the larger more expensive Samsung Frame TV. We ordered installation via Geek squad which took another 12 days. Raymond from Geek squad came out and indicated the special kit would not work and there would be a very visible wire running down from the TV and he could not hide that wire totally refuting what Sebastian from IHA recommended.
Raymond said we needed to order a special sheathing direct from Samsung and therefore he could not install the TV. I called Samsung and one of their engineers stated that there was no problem having the wire from the TV hidden behind the wall as long as it was not bent 90 degrees. The Samsung engineer said that there were several complaints against Best Buy for providing incorrect information. We went back to the Best Buy store to report the issues we were encountering and Meryem the MOD told us there was no excuse and she was giving us a $300 credit for our trouble which we thanked her for.
However, we learned the next morning that Best Buy had actually lowered the price of the TV $300 so we only received a price match not a credit for our trouble. We again returned to the store and Meryem was not in and the MOD was James. James indicated he could not and would not do anything, and we needed to talk to Meryem who could then reissue a $300 credit. James instead wrote down our contact information and left that in the office for Meryem to follow up on the next day..
2 days later, Meryem called to inform us that she could not really issue the $300 credit and could only match the lowest current price. She offered us a $29 Echo Dot for our trouble which we declined as we already had one and did not feel that she had acted in good faith. We now have a private non Best buy affiliated Samsung recommended installer that said they could easily install the TV and hide the wire behind the wall. Best Buy's Managers both Meryem and James did nothing to solve our issue or make up for.

I purchased a JVC radio on October 30, 2019 at Best Buy store no. 1404 in Rosenberg TX. It was installed by the Geek Squad in the store. The rim that fits around the radio is loose and there was damage done to the dash where they cut the opening out to install the radio. So I took my car back and complained about these things. The rim was taped up as a fix. Nothing done about the damage. I wasn’t satisfied with a tape patch that could later come apart as the weather gets hot and humid. Their mention about putting in a cage which didn’t sound too nice to look at based on their description.
I paid $200 for this radio installation and expected a professional look. It was botched job and Very unattractive. They are trying to blame it on my car being old (2011 Altima Nissan) but my car has been kept in top notch shape in and out. My dash has been defaced. I spoke to Joe the original installer, Nate the lead guy and Kevin the store manager. They really couldn’t offer a fix that was satisfactory or that would look professionally done. I have sent two emails to the addresses I was given by customer service. No one has responded. I am very dissatisfied with Best Buy at this point. They do not seem to have any respect or appreciation for their customers. This is one unhappy customer.

We have purchased a Samsung refrigerator that retails for $1500.00 in 2015. Most appliances like this you expect them to last more than 4 years right? We purchased the Geek Squad protection in case something went wrong with the appliance it would be covered. This model has been serviced 5 times now. It freezes everything I put in it. No water no ice.
Geek Squad says I don’t qualify for a replacement because the techs that came to fix it did not fix the same part each time. It has to be 3 times in a row fixing the same exact part. Since they are not sure what’s wrong with it they try different things each time. So you never get to the 3 times for the same part. I had to purchase a basic fridge to put in the garage days before Xmas so we could have somewhere to put my grandsons milk and our insulin. I have called until I’m blue in the face.
Dec 26 they replaced the circuit board. Gave it 24 hrs. Still freezing. No water. No ice. If I want water in the middle of the night I have to go to the cold garage. I will never purchase another thing from Best Buy. We have our 6th appt for a tech to come out for the same problem 5 times prior. It’s a lemon. It happens. I just want a replacement. We purchased over 11,000 worth of appliances that day we got the fridge. You would think they would want to accommodate their customer. But here we are still with no help.

My wife and I purchased an inexpensive large television, 58" Westinghouse, for our spare guest room. It was your "Deal of the Day" which caught our attention. We really did not even go to your store with the intentions of purchasing a television. We were shopping for Christmas gifts for extended family actually. While we made a few additional purchases, we decided to buy the Deal of the Day television because the price was very reasonable for our intentions with this television. One of the employees set off to find one of the two televisions listed as in stock for our item. After several minutes, he returned with the television advising it was on the very top shelf in the back.
We paid for the television and were asked if we wanted the television inspected. Quite candidly, I looked at the box and it appeared in good shape. I was set to accept it as is. My wife however suggested that it would only take a moment so why not let them inspect it. I agreed and the employee began to open the box. In what will be interesting later, she did struggle to get one of the side Styrofoam pieces off of the side but eventually did. In a very cursory manner, she flashed a light into the box and advised the television was ok. Her and another employee repacked the box, struggling once again to get the get one of the side Styrofoam pieces on the side. (I note this for a comment made to me later.)
The box was eventually taped shut and we transported the box home. We parked in our garage and literally moved the boxed television about 5-10 feet into our game room. Our purchase occurred at 9:12pm (again mentioned for a comment made later to me). At approximately 12:00am, we decided to unbox the television. In the same fashion as the employees, I removed the top Styrofoam, the two side pieces of Styrofoam (struggling with one side to remove), and the two of us lifted the television out of the box. While lifting the television, something caught my thumb on the side of the television. We immediately inspected the television and found significant damage to the screen on one side. We did NOTHING further, slid the television back in the box, reapplied the Styrofoam and taped the box shut.
At 8:00am I proceeded to the store where I purchased the television and was directed to the Geek Squad counter. I was met by a young clerk who asked me what occurred and I reiterated my experience. He slid the television into an inspection room where several people apparently looked at the television. The manager of the Geek Squad (female) came out and asked me what happened. I again reiterated my experience at which time she advised her inspection of the box did not reveal any damage. She further stated without any evidence of box damage she could not take the television back. I admitted that I too found the box to be in good condition, I would not have left with a box that wasn't. I explained the cursory inspection of the television that occurred and she advised there is no way that any of their employees would have missed the damage and she would not take the television back. I requested the store manager.
I was quickly met by the store General Manager Josh **, who either had looked at the television already or was simply going on the word of his Geek Squad as he immediately took the position that there was no damage to the box and they inspected the television before I left. I reminded him that I too found the box to be in good condition but my recollection of the inspection was one of a very cursory nature. He stated that there was so much damage to the television that they struggled to get the Styrofoam side back into the box. That caught me as interesting knowing that both employees inspecting the television before I left with it ALSO struggled to get the side piece of Styrofoam out and back in.
Interesting that Mr. ** would make such a comment that may have been relevant to the damage being there at the time of purchase. I insisted that I had this television in my house briefly and decided to unbox it at about midnight. He asked "Did you call someone right away when you discovered the damage?" I reminded him I purchased the television at about 9:15pm and unboxed it at midnight - not sure who I was going to call at that point. I did what a prudent person would have. I re-boxed it and proceeded to the Best Buy store early the next morning.
While my experience to this point was not pleasant as it was clear the store had taken their position that the television was intact when it left with me, my interactions with Mr. ** further disturbed me. He suggested that his employees are highly trained and would never have missed this damage. I advised him that the inspection I watched was not much of an inspection and in retrospect, the piece of Styrofoam being difficult to get back in may have indicated there was damage. He advised there was no damage to the box that suggested the amount of damage on the television to which I agreed. Again, I would not have left the store if there had been significant damage on the box. I suggested that perhaps his employees did in fact miss the damage as there is a film over the entire screen to which he stated they are trained to see through that with their flashlight.
He advised he would not be able to entertain a return because the television was fine when it left the store. I asked if he was suggesting that I broke the television after it left the store to which he stated, "Well you would be surprised how many people out there do that." I found that comment to be insinuating and I further asked to clarify what he meant. He gave me some words on the low statistics of television returns because of the precautions they take and that "something" happened to the television and people out there bring back televisions they damaged. He further advised he would gladly recycle the television for me but I would need it to fight his decision. I inquired how one would go about "fighting" his decision and he stated, "You can call corporate but they are going to call us and I will tell them the same story". "You can take it up with Westinghouse if you want".
Let me acknowledge that we are not talking about a $2,000 television here. The television cost me $279 plus tax. I already own a curved Samsung that I purchased from Best Buy as well as several other televisions throughout my home that I bought from you. This is most certainly not about the money. It is about the principle that I bought something, got it home and immediately discovered it was broken. I would suggest that the inspection that I was present for before leaving the store was not one I would qualify as being thorough. I would further suggest that this television was in fact damaged when we bought it.
In hindsight, the story of the television being stashed away on a top shelf, the struggle to remove the Styrofoam from the box by the inspectors, coupled with Mr. ** using that exact statement as evidence suggesting I broke the television after it left the store, leads me to believe strongly that something happened to that television before I bought it.
While I don't believe a valued customer should ever be in a position to have to defend their character, the insinuation by Mr. ** that I would be one of a number of people willing to try and alter the facts of events to benefit me, over $279, leads me to do so. It is not lost upon me that being lumped into that group of people that Mr. ** references as being dishonest for lack of better words, is defamatory.
I am deeply disturbed by this chance interaction that I had with Best Buy. I have patronized your store for many years and have never found reason to doubt any of your policies. Now, when I come before you speaking honestly about the chain of events, my honestly is being questioned. Best Buy and Mr. ** had the opportunity to accept that something rare has occurred to damage this television. Something did happen to it somewhere, and I assure you it did not happen under my care. Instead, Best Buy and Mr. ** chose to dig their heels in and place a valued customer in with "a number of people" that would do something unscrupulous. I hope the position of Best Buy and Mr. ** was worth it.
I will not return to Best Buy and I will do my best to share this experience with others as I believe it demonstrates a larger principle of placing Best Buy before its customers. You were not getting rich with this purchase... and it will not break me. But you have broken my trust in your company and I will not patronize Best Buy again as a result. Interesting that I cannot locate an email for CEO Corie Barry... Keep your expectations in check should you run into a similar situation. I'll be shopping elsewhere from now on.

When we got the watches home they synced seamlessly to our phones and seemed to be a great product until I went to charge them. Neither device would charge no matter how many things we tried. So we returned to the store expecting a Geek Squad employee to show us what we were doing wrong, but it turned out one of the chargers was defective and one of the watches was defective.
At this point my expectation would be for them to allow a return of the defective devices and we would be left starting over to find a good deal on these watches. Instead we were able to combine the defective pieces into one box and keep the pieces that work in another. Already, amazing customer service. Then they allowed us to swap the defective open box watch with a brand new one. Best Buy has put me in the holiday spirit, I couldn't be more happy with the service.

The store had this "12 days of deals" event which included getting your items by Christmas. So as a Best Buy guy, I faithfully spent a few hours looking for "deals". I bought about 5 items and was also "lucky" to get the main attraction- a discounted 55" TV! Their site indicated that the nearby store had all those items so I chose to pick them up there. Next day I received notification the items were ready...all but the much advertised discounted 55" TV! Apparently they were having a hard time fulfilling that order due to unavailability. The same TV was still showing as available at the same store but with a lesser discount! At first the message was they would try to fulfill soonest, then hours later message changed to fulfilling within a month and of course if unable, they'd cancel the TV order.
I thought it was a mistake since the website still indicated the store had it! Then I goggled around and discovered this was a trend/pattern bb uses, with possible cancellation as the end result. Looking at the whole picture, it now appears to me as a scam in the making. Can't believe I fell for their "sale" trick. I will probably wait it out just to see if it will play out as predicted before cancelling. Still shocked big store like bb can stoop this low so shame on you for wasting a customers’ time and misleading with flashy “sales” when you can’t keep your end of the bargain.

That's a heck of a lot of money they are screwing with.... And right now they are screwing me!!!! I find their 'customer service' not only stinks to High Heaven, it's inexcusable.

Order Number: **. I had a terrible experience with your Delivery! If it would be option to choose 0 stars - I would. Bestbuy scheduled delivery 5 times and 5 times failed. 2 different days - excuses was "Flat Tire" - 2 in a row - you would believe it? But...it sounds funny, but the next scheduled day failure excuse was "Track Down". 2 more failures - they just did not show up at scheduled time frame just without explanation, without any excuses! Every time I've called best buy, I was told the same: "We are sorry for inconvenience, but nothing we can do - just reschedule... one more time" That's it? Absolutely no power over that shipping company?
such as.... delivery company to screw up your reputation!?!? You should fire them right when they failed delivery on 3 time, but instead, you are continue scheduling it next time and next time and... you already scheduling delivery for 6th time. DOWN, DOWN, DOWN - that is your reputation is moving. Unbelievable, how such as successful company may fail business because of such as partners! Use UPS/FEDEX for deliveries - not such as company!!!

I ordered two appliances to be delivered on Monday and got an email that they were going to deliver them on Sunday. I tried calling them to tell them no I need them on Monday as I stated and CSR said dispatch department is closed and that they cannot do anything until Monday. Delivery was attempted on Sunday and I called back Monday to pick them up or schedule a redeliver and they said I had to wait 48 hours before I can reschedule or just cancel the order. I Cannot believe a store with such a name has such an outdated system. I am a landlord and always purchased my appliances from them and they just lost a very big customer to something so ridiculous.

The Best Buy website advertised a FREE smartphone, if one added a line to an existing AT&T account or opened a new AT&T account. This was all good until the AT&T bill came, and showed the phone as financed (with monthly payments) and not at all free. It was an older smartphone, not a new model, and the offer didn't seem too good to be true. I could have gotten the same phone from Amazon for cheaper. I could have gotten a phone I liked better for the same price I ended up paying.

I purchased over $7,000 in kitchen appliances from Best Buy, Sugar Land Texas during Black Friday 2019. I opened a Best Buy Credit Card to receive an extra percentage off the purchase price. My intent was to pay off the card before interest was charged. I received my statement via US postal service. The bill was incorrect... More than what I owed because I was not credited for a return. I understood that the bill may have been sent before I did one return resulting in the incorrect total owed.
I took the bill to the service desk at Best Buy, Sugar Land, TX and ask them to pull up my purchasing record so we could reconcile the bill. They said they did not have the ability to do that and referred me to the number on my bill. I asked to speak to a manager. Up came Jordan, a person with no social or customer relation skills. Jordan, in his uncaring and unprofessional manner, also said he was unable to help me. He referred me to the number on my bill.
The number, customer service for the third party who issued the card, Citibank, was outsourced to the Philippines. As many of you have experienced, I talked to a customer service representative who had such a heavy accent that it was hard to understand what she was saying. Plus she had no idea what I was talking about...zero help. I ask her to pull up my purchase record and was told she did not have the ability to do that. Well if Best Buy and the billing company can't pull up my records...why would I even consider keeping this credit card. Cancelled!
I gave up on this path to resolve the issue and went back to the Best Buy service desk and asked for the manager again. Up came Jordan, same sour look on his face and same resolution to the problem, none. He said, "don't direct you frustration toward me." I said, "you are the store manager, who else am I suppose to direct it toward." His answer, not a word. Do jerks like this not know who makes it possible for Best Buy to stay in business? The customers, me. Who makes it possible for him to get a pay check? The customers, me. Too Bad Best Buy. You just lost a customer.

I bought a washer and dryer through this company at BestBuy for $1,100. On the day of delivery, nobody showed up and I received an email saying the installation was completed. I went to the managers of the store and was told I would have to wait until the next day to reschedule delivery, but that they would expedite it for me. The new delivery date arrives, and I get an email saying it's cancelled again, with no explanation for why. Now in my new home, I will have to wait over a week to do any laundry. I spoke to their resolution hotline and was offered absolutely no solution. They said they would reschedule and offer me a discount, but why would I attempt to reschedule AGAIN? This place is a scam, and I am getting every cent refunded. Seriously, do not do business with this company.
