This has got to be the worst store to deal with. You can not call the store it send you to AI support which can not help you . Then AI sends you to a agent that can not help you. You can not call the store with the local number without being sent to AI. If I could give them a minus I would.
Jay an employee, did a great job with helping me out at the checkout center. He was funny, professional, and kind plus he was very knowledgeable on what he was doing making him a great employee thank you BEST BUY!!!!!!
Jay provided superb customer service!!
I am extremely disappointed with my experience at the Best Buy store located at 3667 Walton Way Ext., Augusta, GA 30909.
On June 28, my friend and I purchased a refrigerator for $2,399.99, along with the required hoses, and was promised delivery on July 1. I received multiple delivery reminders and confirmations leading up to my scheduled delivery window, so I had every reason to believe my refrigerator was on its way. Instead, it never arrived.
When I checked my order online, I was shocked to find that it had been canceled and marked as "unscheduled" without any notification, phone call, email, or explanation.
I immediately contacted customer service. The representative initially refused to let me speak with a supervisor, and it wasn't until the conversation became increasingly frustrating that I was finally transferred. Unfortunately, the supervisor offered excuses rather than solutions and provided conflicting information instead of taking ownership of the situation.
To make matters worse, I was told the earliest delivery would now be July 4, or possibly July 6 because of the holiday weekend. The only accommodation offered was reimbursement for spoiled food after the refrigerator was eventually delivered. If I chose to cancel the order because of Best Buy's failure to fulfill its commitment, I was told I would not be reimbursed for my food loss at all.
This situation has left me without refrigeration over a holiday weekend. Not only am I losing groceries, but I also have medications that must remain refrigerated and ice is not a reasonable solution. At no point did anyone offer a temporary refrigerator, an expedited replacement, or any meaningful effort to minimize the impact of their mistake.
I understand that unexpected issues can happen. What I cannot accept is the complete lack of communication, accountability, and customer service. Had I failed to uphold my end of the purchase, I have no doubt I would have been expected to pay any associated fees. When the mistake was Best Buy's, however, I was expected to absorb the inconvenience, the financial loss, and the stress.
Because of this experience, I have decided to cancel my order today when the store opens. Spending nearly $2,400 should come with dependable service and respectful treatment. Unfortunately, that was not my experience, and I cannot recommend this location based on how this situation was handled.
