Only store credit, questionable warranty practices
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best Buy determined my laptop met the criteria for replacement, since it completely failed after about 4.5 months of use. However, these warranties are STORE CREDIT or REPLACEMENT ONLY. The terms — which aren’t well presented and are buried in 500+ Q&A entries or an obscure online PDF — show that they do not do cash reimbursement. This is disingenuous. When you’re buying the warranty, the product page proudly lists all the benefits, but never mentions that they don’t do cash or check reimbursement. Why hide that fact unless you don't want people to see it? And it gets worse. The warranty (depot) people tell you to talk to the store for anything even remotely related to replacement or reimbursement. When you talk to the store, they tell you that if you want any change in your warranty reimbursement or resolution, you need to talk to the depot. It’s absurd, anti-consumer, and dubious. At best. And here’s another one: if you call your local store number— you get the main call center. You have to press the right buttons in the automated menu to talk to the right person in the right department, who will then transfer you to the store. Yes, you are, in fact, meant to get the runaround. They just want you in THE STORE. I will tell everyone: do not buy anything that requires a warranty from Best Buy. Valuable products need warranties, and once you buy one from them, you’re trapped in their ecosystem and forced to keep doing business with them in the future. If you want a warranty for the replacement?? You’ll be right back on this page again.

Geek Squad Replaced My Computer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had this Accidental Geek Squad Protection on my former computer, and there were two construction failures on it. Geek Squad stood by the protection both times, but the 2nd failure required a part that didn't come in for over a month. Best Buy stood by their warranty and replaced the computer. The service is somtimes slow.

Peace of Mind
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Geek Squad service provides a level of protection that I cannot imagine being without. Life's unexpected disasters, whether large or small, can be disruptive. Having the peace of mind of the Geek Squad protection I am not worried about having to make a replacement purchase for the next couple of years.

Warranty is a must!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ll always opt in for warranties now! My boyfriend’s Alienware laptop was junked out due to an issue with the motherboard. We purchased a comprehensive 3-year warranty that gave us store credit and allowed us to get a brand new Alienware. Best decision I made. The agents I communicated with were all so helpful through the service process.

Geek Squad fixed my computer in no time at all
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased all my computers, tablets, printers and supplies I need from Best Buy and have never had any trouble with them. The Geek Squad is the best. Have always helped me with my problems and have never had anyone of them give me trouble. Always explain everything for me to understand.

Worth the investment
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have not needed to utilize the geek squad folks yet for the most recently purchased laptop. However, I have utilized the geek squad for other issues in the past and have found the technical service to be very effective in financially worth purchasing the protection with electronics such as laptops, portable HDD’s, and portable tablets etc.

Thumbs up to the geek squad
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve purchased this protection just in case something goes awry. Lo and behold I had to take my laptop in. I made an appointment online, although it was not as soon as I wanted it to be. However, when the time my appointment arrived, I was promptly received. The Geek Squad techs were professional, friendly, and informative.

Need to be covered for a new computer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the plan for this computer as the last Lenovo packed up 17 days after I had bought it and had to replace it. Best Buy normally only allows returns during the first 14 days and said we would have to send the laptop back to Lenovo to have her fixed. Hope I don't have to use the service but have it if I do
