  • QuestionDoes total tech include mounting of a TV purchased from Best Buy if it is an open box tv?

    Asked by Kbooks.

  • QuestionIf I purchase a iPhone, in the middle of my Total Tech plan what happens after 2 yrs when Total Tech ends? Can Apple Care coverage be extended to 3 years & beyond? How? and How much? Also, if I purchase the iPhone from apple is apple care automatic via bb

    Asked by Summer.

    • Answer Hi, If you purchase an iPhone in the middle of your Total Tech plan, you will still receive up to 24 months of Best Buy Protection or AppleCare+ coverage, even after your Total Tech membership ends. However, to continue receiving coverage beyond 24 months, you will need to purchase AppleCare+ directly from Apple. AppleCare+ can be extended to 3 years and beyond. To do this, you can purchase AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss. This plan includes everything in AppleCare+ and up to two incidents of theft or loss coverage every 12 months, each subject to a service fee or deductible. AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss automatically renews each year, unless you cancel it. The cost of AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss varies depending on the product. For example, for an iPhone 14 Pro Max, AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss costs $269. The BB Applecare+ will protect a device you buy from Apple as long as you have an active Total tech membership when you buy it. I hope this info helps!

  • QuestionDoes total tech include the repair of printers

    Asked by Rick.

    • Answer Thank you for the question Rick. With your Totaltech plan we can troubleshoot printer issues and provide software related services at no charge. For example a setting causing the printer to get disconnected from your network would be at no cost to repair. Printers purchased under your Totaltech plan at Best Buy would also receive hardware coverage as Best Buy Protection plans are added automatically at the time of purchase. For that it would be no charge if the item has a hardware issue such as no longer powering on. If the printer was purchased before the Totaltech plan or purchased outside of Best Buy it would not get the Best Buy Protection hardware plan but would still have software coverage and free troubleshooting. If you need further assistance please reach out to us at 1-888-237-8289 at any time. We are happy to get that up and running for you!

  • QuestionI just bought a new laptop elsewhere. If I buy TotalTech, will it cover services for the older laptops that I own as well?

    Asked by Bullies4.

    • Answer Our Totaltech membership does cover older computers as long as they are still running a supported Windows or Apple operating system. Totaltech covers most labor and those not covered get a 20% discount(I.E. advanced services). The only thing Totaltech does not cover are parts for the repairs, unless it was purchased from us while having Totaltech and therefore getting up to 24 months of Best Buy Protection.

  • QuestionDoes totaltech support cover if my kid accidentally breaks the TV screen with a toy or spills water on it ?

    Asked by Showtime.

    • Answer Possibly, if the TV was purchased specifically at Best Buy or if the specific model is sold at Best Buy. I'd be careful though. They say they'll cover "EVERYTHING" until it comes time to, then they break out the fine print.

  • QuestionDoes total tech give you early access to founders edition gpus and if so how much earlier then the rest of the wild

    Asked by Hawaiisgamer.

    • Answer No, I've only seen availability one time in the months I've had membership and was unable to purchase even though the site said it was available to totaltech members at the time. When I tried to check out, it said it was no longer in stock, even though the landing page had the yellow button to add to cart. 4000 series cards are coming out soon, so the point is moot now
