This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I have been a very good customer for many years, buying my computers and TV's there. I have recently had an experience that will stop me from any further purchases. I purchased a tv requesting that it be capable of using wireless headphones. The Best Buy associate gave me a tv that was not wireless accessible but also an adapter that would not work. I...

Best Buy Product warranty

I purchased an Insignia Fire TV from Best Buy on July 6, 2020. By October 16, the TV was malfunctioning significantly. I asked a Best Buy supervisor what to do and they refused to help as I did not purchase the Geek Squad protection. After a 4 hour run around between Amazon, Insignia, and Best Buy, I finally got a supervisor named Kathy to speak to me and she told me the earlier supervisor was completely wrong but it was too late to address the issue in store. The warranty was as follows.

If you purchased the Product at a Best Buy retail store location or from a Best Buy online website (www.bestbuy.com or www.bestbuy.ca), please take your original receipt and the Product to any Best Buy store. Make sure that you place the Product in its original packaging or packaging that provides the same amount of protection as the original packaging.

I waited 57 minutes to speak to Kathy. She could still not solve the problem. Then, I spoke - simultaneously - to two supervisors. And 72 mins after the 57 mins., the phone disconnected and neither called back. I am so disappointed in BestBuy. I cannot imagine ever purchasing another thing from them. From the first supervisor who said I didn't purchase the Geek Squad protection so they couldn't assist me to the supposedly "helpful" one who disconnected and never called back, they were such a shameful display of customer service. There are too many other companies that deserve my business.

Best Buy Refund of order

On 29 of may 2020, I placed an online order (BBY01-806087744734) for a laptop to be pick up at a CVS pharmacy in St Augustine, Florida. However, as the delivery was delayed I was unable to pick up the order as I had to go away for a few days. According to Best Buy policy, as the order was not pick up it was send back to the warehouse and I was supposed to be refound about 3 weeks after the return of the order, still according to Best Buy policy.

As of today 30 september 2020, I'm still waiting for the refound, 4 months later. I talked with Best Buy customer care about 6 times since then via chat (I have all the transcript) and they always told me its in process, its gonna take the next billing cycle...Blablabla...

This morning I was transfered to the special refound office and they told me that my case is still in process and that my case was open onl y10 days ago... that does not make any sense... Yes I talked to BB customer care 10 days ago, but why my case was not open before that?

My case ID is 248942224. I can provide all the transcript if needed.

I will appreciate any help you can provide in resolving my problem

Best Buy All reward points disappeared with no reason

I have nearly 90k bestbuy reward points in my account which is worth $1800. They were accumulated through last 2 years by spending more than fifty thousands dollars on bestbuy or using their credit card. Today all the points are gone. I called bestbuy rep and was told "the system cancelled my points". It's a shame! How can they rob customer's money like that?

I paid 706 $ for Sony tv at 7/31/2020 from Best Buy 1901 Arden way, Sacramento. After waiting for 2 weeks the staff failed to inform me of the cancellation of the transaction. Also they confused me and know nothing about customer service. Accordingly I want compensation from you. Ussama al shmarei [protected].
