Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you are going to buy a laptop, especially a gaming machine or a laptop for school, always buy the 3 years extended warranty. I have had a great experience with the warranty part of my computer. I bought an MSI GE72VRF for use at school in my IT cybersecurity classes. Computer worked great for 3 months and then the video card went out. The Geek Squad was great, they look at my computer and determined that it was best just to give me a new one on the spot. Which has served me better, but I am actually about to go and take that one in too. So long story short, buy the warranty, it's good for you!

Fantastic job and well deserved payment for my device. Thanks.

Should have opted for longer plan. My laptop fried almost exactly a year into having it and geek squad sent it off for repair and had it back to me before my finals were due!

We noticed several small problems with the laptop we bought so we took it back to Best Buy! The Geek Squad member signed us up. We only had to wait 15 minutes for them to look at our problem laptop. The Geek Squad said that they would have another laptop sent out to us the next day! No questions asked! The 3 Year Accidental Geek Squad Protection Plan paid for itself the moment we talked to the Geek Squad about our problem Gaming Laptop! I would recommend them in a second!!!

I have purchased a few laptops from Best Buy over the last few decades and I am such of huge fan of their purchase options and their Geek Squad support. I am a die-hard Geek Squad fan, they are so professional and efficient. Everyone should be buying their computers at Best Buy. You really can't go wrong.

Thankfully, I have yet to need to utilize Geek Squad's amazing services yet and hopefully never will.

There are MANY options for computer repair insurance out there. Some are really fantastic. The upside of geek squad is that you can physically bring your computer in and generally get it back quite fast if there's a problem. You don't have to worry about sending it away and it possibly getting lost in the mail or who knows what and then waiting for them to look over your computer and waiting for them to decide what to do with your computer and then waiting for it to get back to you. I need my computer a lot as a student and a mother helping her child through virtual learning so I do not have the time for my computer to be down for a couple weeks while it's getting fixed. Also, if you're like me and keep your computer pristine you can always extend your geek squad coverage at the end of its term as long as your computer is in great condition.

Awesome work helping with the setup of my laptop and showing me the ins and outs

Get it if the item is over say $500. Electronics are so quickly made these days and even those that are quality controlled, such as my laptop, there are going to be issues just shortly after the warranty is up I f-ing hate that. So it's either $$ per hour that make fixing the device inequitable to you or buy a new one. The best perk about the Geek squad and the Protection is the better comprehensive coverage that it carries. Manufacturer's warranty is factory flaws, Accidental coverage includes "mishandling" which I did. I took it in and 3 days later had a new screen. Paid for itself right there. I had a professionalism issue with one of the reps but overall it was still excellent.

I felt comfortable knowing that if anything happened, I would be covered.

Accidently damaged the screen on my gaming laptop and had to send it in for repairs. Scheduling the appointment was not a big deal, my issue with the process was Best Buy not allowing me to ship my laptop to them directly (I currently live 4 hours away from the nearest best buy). I had to ship my laptop to a friend and have them take it to best buy for me, which was inconvenient.

This protection is perfect because you're covered when you have an accident. I bought this computer for the shop and the guys aren't always the most careful. I knew it would come in handy eventually.

It’s a relief to have a coverage plan for my laptop! I’m always in a rush, especially with kids. Thank you Geek Squad for offering this along my laptop purchase!

Geek Squad is amazing! Always attentive and knowledgeable. I don't know what I would do without them! Totally worth the money!

Great customer service helped answer question explained difference between each laptop i was lookimg at and gave me great information to make my decisions easy

My computer was fixed sooner than expected and it looks and works very good.

What I like about the geek squad is that it is super easy to install and fast, they help you with many things and it takes away one more worry if something breaks down.

I spilt hot green tea on my keyboard. So I called. Sent the unit back to Best Buy/ Geek Squad. Then I get an email at 11PM on a Friday night telling me: "The costs to repair your product have now reached your plan's maximum benefit amount. This means the terms of your plan have been fulfilled and your Geek Squad® Protection Plan coverage has ended." So, am I getting a replacement or a store credit? I don't know. It doesn't say. The warranty says it could be either/ or. So I guess I will spend my Saturday morning, or my Monday morning, calling and chatting my way up the information food chain so I can find out what is or is not going to happen. This type of notification without all the information is a total fail for Best Buy and Geek Squad. There is really no excuse for this. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate that, (at least I hope), that I will get a replacement or store credit. But I have no idea which. Am I looking for a computer to be delivered? Do I have a store credit floating out there somewhere? And just when exactly will I find out this necessary information? This info should have been in the email I received at 11PM on a Friday. Stay tuned. Let's see how they handle this. Will I ever know? Will they even care. Jesus, take the wheel.

Employees were very helpful and knowledgeable about the products inside. Although I did not find exactly what I wanted employees gave me several options and I felt like I walked away with a better understanding of the electronic components I was looking for

The agents were very helpful and tech savvy they helped me navigate through my whole new laptop.
