Drove 45 min to best buy to get a car charger for my phone, the female greeter pointed to an aisle,i stated i wanted an appropriate cord, she got somebody, they looked at my phones port and indicated the plug and cable would work, purchased and returned home to discover the charging end does not fit my phone. Called best buy to speak with a mgr and report my experience, and was told i would have to return to the store to speak with a mgr( so another 1 1/2 hr drive and gas) Complete absence of communication and customer service...best buy doesnt want to know about a problem, they might have to fix it! As a 76 year old techno toddler , i trusted best buy to help with the right purchase...they failed, and corporate policy demonstrates they dont really give a ...

The geek squad and staff are excellent at what they do. Highly recommend.
Poor experience with the geek squad for my apple care services. They’re the only certified apple support in town. It was a long wait time to drop off and pick up my device. The other Best Buy I initially went to didn’t inform me that I needed an appointment to drop off my device. I drove over to the location they told me to go to for Apple support, just to be turned away and have to go back four hours later. Then after that, I picked up my device and was still experiencing minor issues. I will probably just avoid geek squad support from now on and go straight to apple care. Understaffed, uncoordinated and didn’t get the job done sufficiently enough.
