don't understand customer service

every problem takes 7-15 calls, lots of complaining, lots of emails. you might as well be calling india. i had avoided them for years because they are a big box store & because so 3 of my friends worked there and in each case were treated horribly for different reasons. (2 of these people had worked for me...smart, competent, best buy should have been THRILLED TO HAVE THEM!!!! instead they treated them horribly)



i needed a laptop, very hard for me to be w. out one m-f non holiday days. my friend went there and got one, "black tie service". i was "up in running" monday. I have had the computer in 2x since then, so less than once a month. two more times it will qualify as a "lemon". this was supposed to be a back up computer, but haven't had time to fix my lst laptop (just got the parts ordered & spending time w. best buy--IT'S A PROJECT!!!)



THE PRODUCT WAS LOUSY, THE SERVICE WAS/IS LOUSY, AND AS I'M TALKING TO MY BOOK KEEPER and on hold w. them for OVER 20 MINUTES (ONE computer, 3 people...and we aren't home yet!!!!!!). 35 minutes have my 3rd human. the above # is not for the store, even tho it is listed as being w. the store. if you value your time, this is where you don't want to be.



i've had the best luck w. overstock, until this year. laptops aren't meant to last, but 2 repairs, 2 months "black tie warranty". be fore warned.

sebastopol, ca.



they specialize in run arounds. stick w. a local person. have an extra laptop. they sell GARBAGE. MAKE SURE if you are going there it is a good computer. try costco or target. at least they have good politics & give money to good places. esp. target.



I have 2 great service guys, but they aren't under my warranty. on the phone for

Geek Squad horrible

Not only do they not answer the phone once you do get someone they seem very unorganized. Receive difffernt answer about repair status every time I call. Its more than frustrating and time consuming.

Never shopping here again!!!

Purchased a computer..... sold me a true lemon! Thought there was a law on this one but I got stiffed!!! Worst service I have ever received!!!!!! Attempted to work with them through their bad product and opted to take my business elsewhere after unbelievable incompetence- Wouldn't agree that the system was a lemon(could never turn it on and they wanted to repair the brand new computer which had never been powered on after leaving the store!!). Finally agreed it was a lemon to return to the manufacturer when geek squad attempted to unsuccessfully boot up also!! (6 trips back and forth over this!!)



Even though they never proved that they loaded the new software I purchased with the lemon computer nor my data transfer b/c new computer never worked/powered up, I got stiffed for the software (it had been open by their incompetent geek squad!), time and labor for installs to a lemon computer and data transfer. They can kiss my A_ _!!!! I will NEVER Step foot in the store again!!! (Also originally had geek squad at the home who explained estimate and fees to old computer could be applied toward purchase of a new one at the store... what a crock o' SH_ _!!!!)



Cost hundreds to walk out with nothing!! Service and management was non-existent!!! DO NOT SHOP HERE!!!!!!



Happy just to get out and take my business else where!! Got a local repair guy to change out a mother board on my old system for $200 and I'm good!!



Best Buy is Worst Buy in my book! Definitely a consumer experience which I do not want to ever repeat! Almost contacted 7 on your side over this but just decided to walk away... when I read these other reviews it made me happy that I wasn't singled out... the whole store is AWFUL!!!!

Unreal

Forget about customer service at this store. The first review is absolutely correct in that you can NEVER get through to anyone on the phone, no matter the time of day.



I was expecting a call from a salesperson (recommended by Geek Squad) and was told the person would call that day.



5 days later, no call, and I can't get through to anyone in the store.



I agree - SHOP SOMEWHERE ELSE.

Shop Somewhere Else

It is impossible to get through by

phone. Popular items are often out of stock. Not a good experience!
