I purchased a dryer + delivery and installation services from Best Buy on Sunday, October 22, 2023. Brian, the lead tech, arrived at our house an appeared combative and belligerent. From the moment he pulled in front of our house he gave me the impression that he was an unhappy man who did not want to be at our home. For example, when he and his team member...

Best Buy Pick up person at checkout

Wanted to purchase online however, the option to add a pick up person is not available at checkout. There is no number to file a complaint the number listed just re-routes you to customer care & they're no help. If I have to spend hours like I did today trying to add a pick up person to my order I will cancel this card. A huge inconvenience to spend hours trying to figure out how to add a pick up person when this option was available before to Best buy credit card holders. After several calls and hours later I had someone at customer care input order for me to send me a link to pay. Why is a customer care representative able to add a pick up person but not the account holder? Please make this option available at check out or you will lose customers.

Desired outcome: Make the Pick-up person option available at check out.

I made an online purchase for a tv on 10/10. I selected next day delivery and paid the extra $10. I live about 6 miles from the store. I waited all day next day and was notified at 8:48pm that it wouldn’t be delivered, but it would be shipped in 1-2 days. That was unacceptable to me. Since it was too late to call that night 10/11, I called the next morning...

Best Buy Salesman Andrew.

Today, I went into Bluffton Sc to exchange my 32 inches tv to a bigger one. Salesman Andrew was at the register. I explained to him that I was switching my tv to a bigger one. I told him I would go check for the one I wanted. When I returned I was waiting when another salesman asked sales Andrew, what was I waiting. He (Andrew) said I don’t know she don’t speak English. I told the 2nd salesman what is he talking about I spoke to him in English. I was on a personal phone call in Spanish. I feel as Andrew discriminated against my race. My phone number is [protected]. I have an acct with you guys. This is unacceptable.

Purchased an ‘open box’ LG C2 65” TV from Best Buy that was advertised as ‘Excellent’. However, the TV did not come in a box and the remote that was provided was not the same remote that comes with the TV if bought new. None of this is disclosed. Not only did they sell me the wrong remote, but it had a ton of scratches and did not even work! I had to bring it back to Best Buy for them to tell me that it was a defective remote.

Purchased OTR Microwave on 9/16 at Best Buy in Dallas. The delivery date was going to be 10/21. Not acceptable. Went back to the store on 9/20 and they changed the delivery date to 9/22 which was fine. Received email regarding delivery for 9/22, received text messages that day regarding time and that the product was on the way and would be installed between...

Best Buy Dishwasher repair

A repairperson came to my residence on two occasions to repair my dishwasher but was unsuccessful to fix the problem. I have a protection plan for my dishwasher. On the second visit to my residence, the repairperson stated that the pump for the dishwasher needs to be replaced and that another appointment is needed. He also stated that he will place an order for the pump. I received a conformation email and text that a new appointment was scheduled for 9/12/23.

I took time off from my work on 9/12/23 and waited all day, but no one showed up at my residence. I did not receive a call/text or email from BestBuy or the service person stating the reason why no one showed up or any cancellation notice from BestBuy. This is very unprofessional and bad customer service.

I called and was able to schedule another appointment for 9/28/23. I think this date (too far ahead) was unreasonable due to the delay and the urgency in fixing my dishwasher.

Desired outcome: I really want my appliance fixed but would like a convenient date and a shorter window to wait due to my bad experience with BestBuy repair.My order number is 9219969.

I ordered a monitor and a pair of headphones for delivery, because it wasn't available in the store. Best Buy didn't require a signature and an ID for either item. The headphone is $221.53 and the monitor is $421.99. The drivers took a picture of the deliveries, but that's not where I live. I called customer service and got a refund for the headphones only...

I called to schedule my delivery of my dishwasher, refrigerator, stove and the small kits to install them. When I called I asked for a 4pm appointment. They said they will try. They also said they will call one hour before showing up. I was not convinced of this appointment. I did not trust this woman. So I called back. Now they tell me they will try to get...

Best Buy Sandisk clip jam

SanDisk clip Jam is less than 9 months old, out of nowhere it started shutting off and refreshing your media after 20 seconds of play. No new music was added, no firmware installed.

The SanDisk I bought right before this one had the electrical connection come off from a bad solder job, that one was bought about a year ago and happened only about a month after I got it.

Best Buy wouldn't even help me or acknowledge the problem. The automated phone system wouldn't even let me talk to somebody for the problem. Both problems yield pages of search results on the internet so this is not some novel defect. It is a known common defect they don't tell you about or help you with.

Desired outcome: Fix glitches/defective designs and builds or carry new non defective mp3 players. Also be honest and responsive about common defects and tell customer about problem and if there is a fix.
