My laptop stopped charging. I took it in for repairs. After two weeks, I was told over the phone that my laptop was ready. It was not. After a third week of waiting, they returned my laptop. They had replaced the keyboard, which I had not asked for, INSTEAD of repairing the charger, and my laptop was now dead, unable to turn on. When I pointed this out, they tried to sell me a new laptop. Best Buy and Geek Squad have lost my business due to their level of incompetence.

Poor customer service ~I needed to replace my iPad, and transfer the data to my new device, so I thought this would be a quick transaction. I started with one person who was helpful in selecting the new device, but at the register Jorge took over and that’s when my experience took a bad turn. He barely acknowledged me during the entire transaction. It took several minutes for the iPad to be retrieved from the stockroom. Using a screen during setup and purchase (including &40 for the data transfer), Jorge was talking to other employees, and paused only to give me one-word commands to “sign” and “initial”. After paying, Jorge directed me to the Geek Squad area, where after waiting in line I was told I needed an appointment and that no one was available for a walkin. As he was walking away, I asked if I could make an appointment now. He came back and set it up for the following day. My next-day appointment with Sean for the data transfer went much better, with professional, courteous and friendly service.
