DO NOT BUY unless you live next to a Best Buy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My experience with this protection was horrible. In the end, I just wrote my device off as a loss. DO NOT PURCHASE if you do not live near a Best Buy location and are positive it will not close. My nearest Best Buy location was about 2 hours away...but that one closed making the next closest location an almost 4 hour one-way trip. You MUST do repair drop-off in-person and, if they decide the device will not be repaired but exchanged for a store credit, you HAVE to return IN-PERSON to finialize thie credit..you can't do it on the phone, you can't do it via email, you can't do it online...even if you initially purchased the item online. Best Buy, please visit your policies in this matter. I've lost hours on the phone trying to work out a solution and now I've lost the price of my device and this extra protection.

VERY POOR SERVICE and RUDE!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Waste of money! Had to make numerous long phone calls to get this refunded after 2 months! Finally when approved, had to go to the store to get the refund and the representative at the counter was extremely rude! Told me the insurance was used up because the cost was higher than the premium. I asked what if it had been repaired and he just shrugged his shoulders and told me there is a supply chain shortage, haven't you heard about all the ships waiting to off load their merchandise? There's a shortage so we can't help you. You're lucky we are giving your money back! Unbelievable! Where was this guy trained?

Geek squad
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They are good at trying to figure out and fix things. I bought the wrong thing, but have used it several times and feel good value for price.

Save your money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.According to other geek squad guys, it doesn’t cover what the one that sold it to us said. So I wouldn’t recommend it, based on that.

Wste of money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought 3 chromebooks and 3 warrantys on line in November. We live in a remote area and the closest best buy is 3 hours away. One of the hinges broke on the chromebook and I was told the only way it could be fixed is if I bring it to the store. I bought it online because I do not live near a store. So basically I bought 3 warrantys totalling a little over 130 dollars and they do me no good unless I drive 6 hours round trip to drop of the chrome book. Biggest joke ever will never shop best buy again.

Posted .Hi wolffie – It is true that we would need to get hands on with your computer in order to get it sent off for service or a replacement. We should be able to ship the repaired unit back directly to you, however, so you’ll only need to make one trip. Before visiting your local Geek Squad please go to www.geeksquad.com/schedule to schedule a reservation so that we can be sure to have an Agent available to help you.

NOT WORTH IT
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this along with my $1600 surfacebook. Up front Best Buy will bend over backwards and promise you everything with this protection plan but when it comes to actually getting help they give you attitude, a hard time, and makes it seem like they don’t have time to help you. It’s like you have to beg for their time as if you didn’t just pay $200+ for the protection plan. NOT WORTH IT

We had it sent to a store near my daughters college for pickup once fixed. Only worked for a little while after and then was never able to turn on again. We were told we are now outside of warranty.
