Great Customer Service for tech Products
Recently ordered a MacBook Air online - NEW. What Fedex delivered was anything but NEW - no wrap around the Mac, power cord crammed in its slot, finger prints all over screen, crumbs on the keyboard. Back of laptop had some form of smudge on it. A disaster. Called support to verify that I did purchase new and hadn't made a mistake and purchased open box (although, even if I had ordered "open box" the condition still would have been unacceptable) and they recommended that I bring the Mac to my closest Best Buy location, an hour away in Grand Junction. I was beyond frustrated. However, I wanted to get the Mac to the store as soon as possible, as I knew the longer I waited past the delivery, the less likely I would be believed that Mac came in its current state. (Understandable as I am sure Best Buy has its fair share of people being less than honest).
Once I arrived at the Junction location, I explained to the greeter what my needs were (very professional and kind) and she promptly directed me to the Customer Service counter. I explained to the rep my situation and after reviewing the Mac, contents and box she called a manager over. Skye, the manager, was absolutely amazing. He patiently listened to my frustrations and after verifying I received the correct product we agreed that it was strange indeed. Skye attempted to get me the same Air that I previously ordered. Unfortunately, there was no stock. He explained that he did not want to exchange with a unit that had less specs, in which I was in agreement. The choice was to wait...however, I could not. I needed my Mac same day in order to continue work. They applied the amount of my Air purchase to Pro and off I went. However, I did open box before leaving just to make sure.
Due to Skye's politeness, professionalism, and product knowledge I was reassured that he genuinely cared about my predicament, empathized with my frustrations and patiently weighed options with me. Thank you Skye. You turned an intensely stressful situation for me into a great customer experience. 5 star rating!
To Best Buy's fulfilment centers, HUBS, warehouses, or whatever they are titled. DO BETTER.
Five-Star Service from Chance and Jerry!
Chance and Jerry came to pick up our broken TV and were absolutely fantastic. They were right on time—one of them even said, “We’ll be there in 8 minutes,” and sure enough, they showed up exactly 8 minutes later! Both guys had such a positive, kind, and professional attitude. They even took extra care navigating our glass French doors, which we really appreciated. If you ever need help from Best Buy, we highly recommend asking for Chance and Jerry—they’re the best
