This is for Masoud the assistant manager who is so full of himself. You’re unprofessional and just admit it. Too proud to say you’re sorry and blame on the other staffs is unacceptable. Glad I didn’t sign any contract with you. Guess what?! I’ve found better service elsewhere! The whole team is a joke. That’s why the department was dead. You’re unprofessional.

Order Number:BBY01-[protected]
Total:$2,099.95
I have had this delivery scheduled since July 1,2022. I have been told the product is not in stock and had to reschedule. Customer service is very poor with only solution is to order another range or reschedule. Now at this point I'm wondering if the Dec 26 scheduled date will be kept. There is no update or communication on if its going to delivered or have to be rescheduled. I have never experienced this type of Customer service failure.

I not only waited 4 days to try and get this worked out BUT it took me 2 people that DID NOT HELP ME AT ALL. The activation code does not work. I talked to Rudy the first time. Then Brian.

Install of a LG dryer
Purchased on Oct 2nd and installed on Oct 6th. I notified my gas company-Nipsco the very next day to state I smelled gas. Nipsco confirmed the leak is from the faulty hook up of my dryer. Called Total Tech Customer service and the young lady offered no apology, no compensation, nothing. She just stated that someone should call me soon about re-.doing the installation. I am still waiting for a phone call
Desired outcome: For a different team to come out here immediately to hook up my dryer and a full refund of my membership
Delivery of Refrigerator
Bought a new refrigerator from Best Buy. The installers sent by Best Buy failed to level the refrigerator. As a result, the door fell open and fell shut all by itself. The first day, while I was looking for something in the fridge, I let go of the door, and the door swung open and hit a handle on a cupboard, creating a visible dent. We called and asked to have someone come out and install it correctly. In the days waiting for the installers to come, the door fell shut, causing a shelf in the door to dislodge, falling on two other shelves and destroying them. Now we're stuck with a new refrigerator with two door shelves missing. Best Buy says they can't find any replacement shelves: they're on backorder and they have no idea when they'll be available. Its been months- no shelves. I suggested they take them out of a floor model to replace ours. They won't. Then, I suggested they replace the whole refrigerator: they won't. This is no fault of ours, and we're expected to just accept this: despite the appliance being under manufacturer's warranty, plus, we bought the Best Buy Protection Plan. I wish I had paid a little more and bought from a local small business. They would stand behind their product to protect their reputation. Best Buy is so big- apparently they don't need to care. Very disappointing!
Desired outcome: shelves replaced
lg - 27 cu. ft. side-by-side smart refrigerator with craft ice - stainless steel model: lrsos2706s sku: 6468484
We purchased the LG refrigerator, along with other major appliances from Best Buy in a single transaction over $5000. When then refrigerator was delivered, the delivery people failed to level the appliance. As a result, the door swung open by itself, and swung shut by itself. First day, the door swings open and hits a handle on a cupboard, causing a dent on the face of the door. We called and asked to have the Geek Squad come and level the unit. Before they got here, the door swung shut, causing the top shelf to dislodge and fall on the other two shelves, damaging them two in the in the process. We need the second shelf down from the top, and the bottom shelf replaced. They were broken beyond repair. We returned to the store and registered our complaint and explained the problem. Anthony, at the Irmo, SC store on Harbison Blvd, was very friendly and professional and agreed to order replacement shelves and have them drop shipped to our home. Months went by, and we continued to communicate with Anthony. He explained that the shelves were on back order, and he had no idea when they might become available. I suggested he take them out of a floor model somewhere in the US and give them to us. He indicated that wasn't possible. I believe he made a sincere effort to find us the shelves, but unfortunately, he could not. I suggested that he replace the refrigerator with a new one, since ours was damaged by the negligence of your contracted installers. Anthony said he couldn't replace our refrigerator, and that we needed to talk to corporate.
The lack of shelves is more than just inconvenient: it diminishes the storage capacity. It's a pain! We have been patient and friendly, and so has Anthony, but our problem is not solved. We bought a new appliance, along with the Best Buy Protection Plan, and yet, we cannot get shelves for our new refrigerator. How is it fair and good customer service to not rectify this problem in whatever manner is required? Large corporations have enough capital to cover losses like these, and that kind of situation is anticipated in the business plan. I want shelves for our new appliance, or a new refrigerator of comparable design and value. I have been a loyal Best Buy customer for many years. A customer should not and cannot be expected to tolerate a functionally damaged appliance due to the incompetence of two "professional" installers.They were contracted or hired by Best Buy. They made a mistake, it caused damage: Best Buy is responsible. I expect this problem to be resolved promptly and professionally. Thank You, Sincerely, John & Cheryl Tree

Desired outcome: A fully functional refrigerator
TV Installation/ Poor Customer Service
Your company is failing to provide customer service at the store level. Sales representative at your Springfield MO location could not schedule installation at the time of purchase and stated he would call me back after he was able to schedule. I never received a call back from him and when I tried calling the store I was told that the stores do not answer their phones. The person I spoke to stated that she worked from home and my installation had been scheduled but she couldn't say if it was 3 party or not. Someone from the store did call back and confirmed that my installation was not 3rd party. When I complained about no one at the store answering the phone he informed me that is so the staff ca focus on sales. I can get this type of customer service from Amazon and generally for less money. The only reason why I chose BestBuy is for personal customer service and if I can't get that I will be shopping elsewhere.
Desired outcome: I'd like to see your company do something to fix your poor customer service. Direct customer care is the only advantage to shopping at a brick and mortar store.
Customer service
I went shopping for a new laptop in the Brick,New Jersey store located at 51 Chambers bridge Street. I had the rudest salesman I have ever encountered in my life! He refused to give me his name. I went up to the front of the store where he retreated to and asked his name again and he refused to give it to me and he was standing with another salesman who sat at the desk by the door. Again no one would give me their names! The salesman at the front desk did get the manager and I told the manager my complaint, but I really don't think he was going to do much about the salesperson who was the rudest, nastiest salesperson I have ever encountered in my life! I have been a best buy customer since you opened your doors many years ago. I honestly doubt that I will ever shop Best Buy again. I will also tell the many family and friends I have. I left that store in tears, that has never happened to me in all the 65 plus years of my life! I also know that since Covid hit our world in 2020 it has been hard for many establishments to hire and keep salespeople. But to honestly keep these types of salespeople in your employ just to have a body on the floor will do more harm to your business then any disease could possibly do to your establishment. My name is Theresa DiPresso and this incident took place on October4, 2022
Desired outcome: I just want someone at Best Buy to acknowledge my complaint.
Samsung refrigerator
My fiancé and I purchased a fridge from the best Buy in Victor NY. The Fridge was an open box item that had some minor cosmetic flaws. We purchased the item knowing this, when the item was delivered to our house it was found that the item had a missing wire, one of the installers was going to order a new one for the fridge. The other installer discovered that holes had been drilled into the bottom of the fridge and told us that this item had been installed in someones house before we bought it. Both the installers told us that the fridge that was sold to us was junk and that it would be taken back to Best Buy and that it should have never been sold. They also told us that they would recommend to Best buy that we get a new fridge, and that they were going back to their company and tell them what had happened. They also said we should be getting a call from Best buy within an hour or two. That call never came. We called Best buy and spoke to someone and they said that Best buy would replace the item with a brand new one for the same price we paid, and that someone would contact us within 24 hrs. This never happened either. We then called again, same run around same result. No call back. this went on every day for 5 days, with us reaching out to them every time and them never returning a call. We were told that Best buy records all conversation and that they would listen to the recording and if we were told that we would get a new fridge, then they would honor that. Once again, no response. We did get an automated call saying to call and schedule a delivery for an item, when I called, I discovered that Best buy Victor cancelled the order. Nobody at the call center could help us or even explain why, and we got disconnected after an hour on the phone. we called back and got the same run around, this time the representative from Best buy said he would not let this go unheard and he promised to call us back in 3 hrs to make sure the problem had been resolved, once again, this did not happen. Seems to me, they like to tell you whatever they can to get you off the phone and never follow up. Every person we spoke to had a different story. We bought a new fridge because ours did not work, we have since been without one for a week and nobody wants to help to resolve this situation. Best buy sells products as new that have clearly been installed somewhere else before, they do not want anything to do with helping out their customers who spend thousands of dollars in their stores, and their customer service is anything but. I will never buy anything from Best buy again and I will make sure I tell everyone I make contact with to do the same. Never ever again. All I was asking was for BB to make things right and work with us, but they could not even do that. This has been the most disappointing purchase I have ever tried to make.
Desired outcome: Make things right, call your customer back when they need help. don't let their food spoil in coolers for a week. Pay for all the food we had to throw away as a result of not delivering an operational refrigerator, something, anything.
Order Cancelled due to Best Buy negligence
Order number - BBY01-[protected]
Ordered on 10/01/22 sale completed. The open-box TV was listed as available for pick up at the Streetsboro location. Approximately 2-3 hours later I received notice that the tv wasn't available there. My only option was to cancel the order that I already completed.
I contacted your support line. The only option given to me was to either cancel the order or wait until it became available at the Streetsboro store. I explained that would be unacceptable.
Waiting for another open-box of the same tv could take who knows how long.
Desired outcome: I stated that I would only except one of two options.1 - Get the same open box unit shipped to me.2 - Sell me a new unit (the same make and model) at the open-box price. To include the same protection plan that I already purchased.
Desktop Computer
On 0925/2022 I purchased a desk top computer and monitor from Best Buy; I picked the monitor up the same day it was ordered. I was told the computer would arrive on 10/05/2022. later that day I received $273.00 back in my account from Best Buy. Figuring this was some kind of mistake I reordered the desktop. I received the desktop on 09/30/2022. and got an email that my second computer was at the store. I went to the store and returned the second computer but on my way to the store I was charged an additional $268.73 I returned the second computer and was told by store associate Jaylen and his manager that I needed to call corporate for the return of the monies for the second transaction. I spoke to Jen at corporate who tried to over talk me and give some halfhearted explanation about Best Buy's billing practices and when she could not explain she hung up on me
Desired outcome: i want my money refunded

Complaint
I purchased the Insignia Air Fryer several months prior to the SAFTEY recall. As soon as I received the notice of the recall, I called requested and then received the box to send my air fryer back. I received an email stating they received my Air Fryer, and I will get an electronic gift certificate for my refund. The REFERENCE NUMBER they gave me: GYH6W1652277431671. After a few weeks I began to call and then email because I never received my refund. I was told they escalated my issue, and I should receive my refund. When I call & email, each refers me to the other and both say there is nothing they can do. Today I called the corporate office, put on hold for 30 minutes, got hung up before anyone picked up and called back again. After another lengthy time on hold, the woman said there is nothing she could do. She said she would transfer me to another corporate office, where then I got disconnected.
They kept promising that delivery of my product but would never come or call.
I ordered an oven back on March 6, 2022. It was backordered so I expected it to be a while before it would arrive. However, in the last month, they have scheduled my delivery and installation several times. On 3 different occasions, I waited all day and never received any sort of notification. When I would call customer service and they would state that they were still coming.
Yesterday, at 9 pm when it was obvious that they weren't coming, again, I called customer service. The rep said that she didn't think it would come till March of 2023, since they didn't have any. But this morning, I had an email from them to rescheduled for next week. Sorry, but I am through playing this game. I can't afford to keep taking off work to wait for them. I went to the store to request a refund. Of course, the worker at the store didn't care either.
I'm done with Best Buy due to their poor customer service.
Desired outcome: I would like some acknowledge from the company that they have real issues with their supply systems and an apology. And to warn others not to waste their time with this company.
Dryer - Gas
I would like to ensure that you know that you doing my life miserable
I have ordered a gas dryer that had included the conversion from natural to propane. The first machine arrived and the technician supposedly did the conversion, but the next day the machine stopped working. I called the next day and best buy promised to exchange and convert also the new one. On the day to receive the new one, the delivery guy said that he was not able to convert to propane. He didn't exchange the machine, return the new one to their warehouse and the one that doesn't work still here. My life is miserable, I can't use the dryer, Best Buy is doing mistake over mistake. I am struggling to return the old one and get my money back.
Now, I am struggling to return and your complaint team don't want to give a solution.
Best Buy, never more!

total tech support
On Aug. 31,2022 Best Buy came out to replace a TV under warranty. I am a Total Tech Support member and have been for many years. Upon arrival the gentleman that delivered my TV was asked if he was going to set it up for me and he said no that would $100. Well I was under the assumption that my Total Tech support included that. He did not even offer to carry it upstairs where it belongs, it is a 55 inch and I am 74 years old. When I requested he carry it up for me he complied but then left it just sitting on the floor in the box. I had to get a neighbor to come and unbox it and lift it up on the stand. I called and reported this to the Total Tech people and they confirmed that he was suppose to set it up for me under my plan. Well i never heard back from anyone. So I guess my money I pay for the Total Tech support means nothing.
Desired outcome: I would like a personal phone call with an apology and an explanation on why this occurred the way it did and exactly what my Total Tech Support is suppose to cover
Gift card restriction on online purchase
Best buy canada has this totally customer unfriendly & even senseless gift card policy saying that customers can use only 2 gift cards (e or physical) on each online purchase. No business from me & I do not want to use my own money other their own gift cards that I have earned on things that they sell. No change after complaining about this to multiple levels/departments of this business.
Lack of interest in their customer service
Lack of interest in their customer service. I came in to have my cameras installed in my Prius during which the installer destroyed my car. I was told because it was too much money for them to handle it in store that I would have to go through their claims department which is Sedgwick (demons from hell). After wrestling and wrestling with Sedgwick getting in contact with the claim adjuster who is supposed to help me but never did help me .I got through to another Sedgwick employee who did help me but only after a lot of frustration. to the point that I will never shop at Best Buy again. The weeks of having to prove that I’m not lying when all they had to do was talk to the technician. going back-and-forth between Toyota and Sedgwick trying to get them both on the phone to talk to each other took an act of God.
Desired outcome: Burn baby burn you don’t understand customer service you think because they fixed my car I’m not happy customer….You are farthest from the truth.
Online OrderNumberBBY01-[protected] Bio Bidet
I am writing to complain about a delivery of bidet that we purchased from Best Buy. There were many problems with the delivery.
First, there is the issue of timing. We were told it would be delivered between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m, and that we would be given a half hour’s notice so that one of us could come home from work to be here. As it turned out, it was delivered at 10:40. Fortunately my husband was home early.
Second the delivery person, Alex Vierta, did an incompetent job. He brought the bidet up on a four wheel dolly, without any leverage. He was struggling to get the box over a small step, and could not bring the dolly over the larger step. Instead, he turned the box over twice so that it would land on the porch. If there is any breakage of the bidet when we finally are able to bring it into the house, Mr. Vierta and his delivery company will be liable.
My husband asked him if he would please bring the package into the house. He has had back surgery, and I can’t lift a box of that size and weight. Mr. Vierta said that it was an “economy” delivery so that he did not have to bring it into the house. My husband told him this was both unreasonable and unacceptable given the weight of the box, but Mr. Vierta showed no concern. His attitude throughout the entire time was unhelpful as he seemed to be doing as little as possible.
We have had enough problems with this purchase. We originally purchased it on August 2, 2022, and the purchase date was later corrected to August 9, 2022. Almost a month later, we were still waiting. To the have to deal with a delivery person who was both incompetent and had a disrespectful attitude is more (less?) than we bargained for.
And if “economy” really means someone won’t bring a heavy box into the house, that policy needs to be changed for items this heavy.
I truly hope nothing is broken after the delivery guy was flipping the bidet over from end to end to deliver it.
This has been the worst experience I have ever had with a purchase. I was finally able to get help after contacting Bio Bidet directly because nobody at best buy would do anything.
I was also disappointed to find out that the installation of the bidet is not covered by Total Tech. One of the reasons why I bought into total tech in the first place.
Desired outcome: Hopefully nothing needs to be done as long as the bidet works. I'm just really disappointed in the customer service.
