"Horrible. I ordered a IPHONE and over a week later it still had not arrived. I should have used Amazon ... never a hassle, but BestBuy cannot compete it today's market either in shipping service or in price - Avoid."
"I do my research online and go to Best buy to Price Match the item.
I like browsing their stock for movies which is getting smaller by the year.
Never had an issue with the sales staff"
"A DVD ordered directly from China did not play on my small, portable player. I took the DVD and player to Best Buy in Ft. Collins, CO, and found a sales associate, Tony, who explained the regional specificity of some software, examined and tested mine and recommenced a new, inexpensive player that has worked well. I entered the store with a problem and left fifteen minutes later with a good solution. I'll be back."
"After having a very bad experience, I stopped going to bestbuy. After 3 years, unfortunately I stepped into it and added a line (off contract) to my ATT family plan as they advertised $200 gift card. I was able to successfully add a line, some issue occurred and my new phone is activated but gift card was not generated. Sales associate was friendly and promised to send a gift in 6 days. After 7 days, I called the store, I see no one responding. Called Customer care and representative told that there is a gift card waiting but will be issued only after 14 days of active line. I was extremely unhappy and manager took over the phone and promised to call me back. Later I again called customer care and explained the situation and they tried to contact the store. After talking to store, she says gift card will be issued after 14 business days BY THE STORE as they have similar issues with other customers. Story didn't match up with the earlier call and questioned whether gift card is generated by the store or by back-end customer care. She told by the store. I was extremely frustrated asked why the story is not matching and I got a response that no record of me talking to customer care was found. I guess I might of talked to some bestbuy ghost representative earlier. I am not optimistic of getting a gift card, so Never Never trust Bestbuy. Till you buy the product, they act like they are the best people in the entire world to take care of a customer. Once you purchased the item, they will treat you like an idiot and show their extreme talent of delay tactics and fool you around. I seriously regret going back to best buy. "
"We purchased a set of pots and pans and had them delivered, when we received them they were damaged, we immediately called to let them know and was told we could take them to any Best Buy store, we live 2 1/2 hours from the neareast one. We finally had the chance to go to the nearest store and the clerk could not help us and did not even know if his store carried the pot and pans (they didn't) we had to look thru the store. Upon arriving back at home we phoned the number that was given to us and was told they would not take them back because we were 2 days later than they would take them back. Best Buy was totally unhelpful and unwilling and when we called the main number we got a person that could barely speak English and when we asked to speak to someone else he just kept talking. Will NOT ever shop at any Best Buy again.

"I had a horrible experience with Best Buy in Seekonk, MA. In general, Best Buy should extend its return policy to at least 21 days. 15 days is not enough time to determine if you want to keep a computer.
I bought a Lenovo laptop bundle that came with Kapersky (?) Internet Security and Microsoft Office. Around a week after getting the laptop, it started having issues. I called Lenovo and they were unhelpful. I should have returned it to Best Buy then but decided to keep it because I figured it wouldn't happen again. However, it started having other issues that my HP never had but by then, it was too late to return it.
More specifically about the Seekonk location, the employees at the customer service desk are not helpful or friendly. When I bought my bundle, I was charged one bundle price under the assumption that everything was included in the price. The cashier did not mention any additional charge to me. I didn't need the MS Office until yesterday but when I went to use it, I found that it wasn't activated.
Today, I went to Best Buy and talked to customer service. The Asian girl that helped (or didn't help) me was so rude even though I was calm and as nice I could be considering the circumstances. She told me that I needed to pay extra to use the MS Office. I explained that I was under the assumption that it was all included but she didn't seem to care. She acted annoyed. I asked for a supervisor and the supervisor guy was unhelpful and not very friendly either. Definitely not shopping there again or recommending any of my friends or family to Best Buy. There's too many other stores that sell electronics."
"Purchased a WiFi thermometer at their site to be picked up. Site said they had them in stock. Went to store only to find they didn't have the item. My $270 will be tied up for at least the nest 3 or so days. "
"Went to purchase a Gophone Lumia 640 that was on sale. In addition to sales tax, I was charged $1.05 for Prepaid Wireless E911. After I left the store, I noticed the plastic packaging was defective, so I went back to exchange it with another one. At Customers Service, I was told I have to pay another $1.05 (Prepaid Wireless E911) if I want to exchange it. I told them I changed my mind and requested refund, and was told I would be given refund minus $1.05 (Prepaid Wireless E911). Nothing on the sales receipt indicated that should I return a merchandise, I would be assessed the fee of Prepaid Wireless E911. After I got my refund (less $1.05), I went to the Target store next to the Best Buy, and purchased the same phone without having to pay the fee ($1.05) of Prepaid Wireless E911. I would advise to avoid Best Buy."
"Purchased a new Laptop. Took it home and started it up. Short story, we could not get passed setup. Setup was asking for a password for "Defaultuser0 " we hadn't setup yet! We didn't have a password yet. There seems to be some issue with "Defaultuser0 " coming up on some units. There is a fix for it, but I think you need the disk. There is no disk with a new unit. We packed it up and RETURNED THE SAME DAY (4 hours later)!
Don't expect an easy return at Bestbuy. After Itzel thoroughly checked all parts were present, Itzel proceeded to boot up laptop. Itzel told us that unless we could give her the password, we would be charged $30 to have the password retrieved and unlocked! WE DIDN'T HAVE A PASSWORD! WE WERE NEVER EVER ABLE TO SETUP!! after arguing with Itzel about it, she found a manager. The manager told us "this is policy". (You will also go through this, if you have to return an electronic item, or?) The laptop was now given to geek area to go through and check the laptop. 20 minutes later, the manager said; okay, Itzel will give a refund as soon as she's done with them. We stood there at Itzel's counter watching as she finished with the customer she was with. Itzel finished with the customer, AND WALKED OVER TO THE LINE AND PULLED ANOTHER CUSTOMER OUT OF THE LINE AND STARTED TO HELP THEM! My wife walked over to Itzel and asked her why she wasn't taking us. Itzel said she would - after she was finished with yet ANOTHER customer. 35 minutes later, we were done with Bestbuy. FOREVER!!

"The worst place 2 buy from!!! bought a $1500 sony tv took it home and it didn't work!! tried 2 return it the next day and they refused 2 take it back!! filed a report with the credit card company and BBB. don't shop here!!!!"
"This is the worst service I have ever experienced. I ordered a washer and dryer online and it showed in stock when I ordered. I have now had four different delivery dates and still no product. The geek squad can't seem to talk with the store and no one seems to care. I am canceling my order and just going to Lowes tomorrow and get one with next day delivery. Best Buy is the worst!!"
"I have been shopping at Best Buy for over 15 years. I have not had a bad experience. I bought a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. They explained everything, hooked me up through sprint it was great. I always buy my phones at BB. I have to give them 5 starts"
"best buy, chula vista, one of the authorized FRAUD companies.
Cashier Member ID: ***-***-****
Sales Manager: Jenny.
I chose this title because best buy cashier, employees and managers should be best buy ambassadors.
2 weeks ago I went to best buy chula vista to buy a laptop. After I chose LENOVO Y70, I tried to pay using my NAVY Federal Credit Union credit card (NFCU) but the cashier says that I cannot use this credit card to pay in the store. I tried to cancel my purchase because I don't have cash nor debit but he says that I still can pay with NFCU credit card over the phone when I call citibank. I showed him the NFCU credit card to make sure and he said that he was 100% sure that I can pay with a NFCU credit card.
Yesterday, I called citybank to pay my LENOVO laptop and I was surprised that they don't accept any credit card payments. It should be cash or debit. I explained to them what happened in best buy (please see above). They apologized that they cannot help and I have to call best buy to solve the issue because it is impossible to make this payment with a credit card.
I called best buy chula vista to speak to best buy sales manager "jenny". I explained to her what happened (please see above). She apologized about what happened and says that everybody makes mistakes and i have to solve this problem and take responsibility for it. WAIT!!! WHAT?
so let me get this straight jenny THE MANAGER. You are asking me to mess my credit because I don't have cash and that this will affect my U.S. NAVY command and affect my career and get kicked out because of best buy mistake? best buy!!! how I should take responsibility for your mistake?
After explaining to jenny that I cannot return the laptop back to best buy because I have a flight tomorrow morning and my car is in the naval base storage, she was not cooperative and as always replies that everybody makes mistakes and I have to take responsibility otherwise my credit will be messed up.
I had to cancel my flight and get my car back from storage to take best buy responsibility and to fix best buy mistake and to keep myself from a bad credit and maybe a job loss.
So best buy look what you've done. I had to lose my flight ticket, my storage, wasted hours of my time to fix your and your ambassadors mistake because I care about my credit and since now I have an outstanding credit."
"Bought a fit bit before future shop became best buy so I was a bit nervous when it stopped working suddenly! I came into the Oliver square location in Edmonton and was helped out my Mohit. He was fast helpful found all of my old receipts and fixed my problem! Thanks for the excellent service!"
"I had the misfortune of purchasing a Dell all-in-one computer from Best Buy. No sooner had I connected it to the internet then it was infected by viruses before I even had the chance to download my antivirus software. Best Buy sells inferior, vulnerable products to you so they can turn around and foist their expensive Geek Squad services on you. Do yourself a favor. Buy products company-direct and find a Computer Renaissance or some other reputable computer services company to do the geek stuff. You will get much better products at a better price (Dell Refurbished, for example) and you won't feel gang-raped everytime you need to take your computer back to the store in order to fix the problems associated with the inferior products Best Buy sells."
