I’m a Best Buy cardholder. I bought a robot vacuum and ran into an issue. When I contacted support, they simply sent me off to the manufacturer, offering no solution themselves. For a large retailer, this is unacceptable. One star. I won’t be buying from you again.
Cool store. However when I went to make a purchase the young guy tried to sign me up for their credit card without my knowledge or permission. Weird vibes at this store as if they were high as well, but I’m not from San Diego so maybe that’s normal for people here. Just order online if you have to come here for something big.
How difficult can it be to reach an associate at the store? After calling so many times I had to go in to talk to an associate. I also called for an order for the Geek Squad to come in to work on my computer. I schedule it almost 3 weeks in advance because they said it was their only availability. After scheduling it in advanced, paying $150 for the service, taking a whole day off work (money lost) so I can be there at their open appointment from 7AM-7PM. They call me the day before and tell me they dont have anyone. They had 3 WEEKS to figure that out. They didnt give me a credit, barely apologized and just moved on. So now I have to take another day off work because they cant give me a specific arrival time frame til the DAY before the appointment. Theres another WHOLE DAYs worth of work lost. More money lost. These big corporations are getting worse. I see why they are failing. Customer service is just not the same anymore. I DO NOT recommending contacting this company thats impossible to reach a store associate and is not organized in their geek squad department. They dont have sympathy for their clients and I will never shop here again.
