Call center said product in stock. And actually it wasnt. Wasted trip but there isnt a ph# for the actual store and the call center refuses contact info for the actual store.
I place a hold order prior to coming to the store. I place it 3 hours before arriving and when I got there my item was sold out. Not only that when I go to the register to claim my item that was on hold they said my order was cancel. The only reason I even came here was because I needed the item as fast as possible. Now I have to order it on Amazon and wait 2 days. I rather give the my business then Best Buy. Don’t shop here for radar detectors they most likely will lie on the site saying they have them in stock. I waste my gas and money driving here.

I am extremely upset with how Best Buy handled my “My Best Buy Total” membership renewal.
I purchased my laptop about a year ago and paid for a one-year membership at that time. Instead of contacting me before renewing and asking whether I wanted to continue, Best Buy automatically charged my debit card nearly $200. The only notice I received was after the charge had already been processed — an email stating that I could request a refund after the fact.
Because Best Buy labeled this as a “recurring charge,” my bank allowed the payment to go through even though it overdrew my account by almost $200. That account is the one I use to pay my rent. Now I am stuck waiting 7–10 business days for a refund while scrambling to cover money that never should have been taken in the first place.
I did not knowingly authorize an automatic annual charge, and I certainly did not expect a company to help itself to nearly $200 without clear, advance consent or a meaningful warning. Telling customers “you can ask for a refund later” is not acceptable when real financial harm is caused in the meantime.
This practice feels predatory and unfair, especially for customers living paycheck to paycheck. I cannot be the only person this has happened to.
Best Buy needs to improve — with clearer opt-in renewal policies, stronger advance notice, and greater responsibility when charging customers’ bank accounts. This experience has completely damaged my trust in the company.
I am so disgusted by the fact that I have to wait 7-10 to "get a refund," but they didn't wait 7-10 to take my rent money from me. Maybe they will call my landlord and tell them why my rent is late, or pay the late fee for my rent.
