They saved me money with all my electronics and computers. I have sent most of them to get checked or fixed.

I have mixed feelings about this service bc I purchased a computer before my current one and probably sent it out to be "repaired" more times than any normal person. It was always something w screen that needed fixing. The fourth or fifth time I was told that they were returning the laptop and crediting me what it was valued at in Best Buy store credit, which I was told was to be used for purchasing new/refurbished/open box laptop. This second laptop was larger and heavier than the Acer laptop that was thin and lightweight, similar to Apple Air. I wanted same thing, but couldn't find one in brand I wanted or without having to dish out a couple extra hundred $$s, so I went w an openbox Samsung Chromebook. It works great, syncs to other devices via wifi/bluetooth/etc. After taking it to be repaired once I was told that the $40 something ish 2 yr geek squad plan was no longer valid bc whatever part they replaced fulfilled the cost. I thought that was the entire purpose of insurance. Pay monthly price or one time in this case to cover your item for a period after the manufacturers warranty. So, when the power chord stopped charging the computer, I still took it in and they pretty much told me to buy another one bc. Luckily, I called the parts store and they replaced bc geek squad plan does provide ONE replacement power chord for device AND bc it was still under the yr of manufacturer's warranty. HOWEVER, around time I purchased the first computer is when I started using Best Buy more, after finding my $3300 Samsung Refrigerator in a storeroom floor for $1300 open box & scratch at bttm. $1500 after taxes/etc bc even paying for delivery wasn't an option. Had to pick up ourselves, but it ended up being a reliable rerigerator, despite not originally wanting one w tablet built in door. I began replacing my t.v.'s through Best Buy instead of Target, who was GREAT when purchased one before your store. I ordered an open box t.v, soundbar & a Geek Squad protection plan for both, via BB online and picked up at local store. It was only $20 ish less than a new version in same model. It ended up being in worse condition than advertised so I returned at the store and ended up purchasing the new version. A female manager at the Brookes City Base San Antonio store assisted w the return/exchange after associate completed my cc payment transaction. I don't remember why she didn't do an exchange, which would have led to me charging the small difference on the same BB credit card. She returned the item completely and my card was credited for the price of open box t.v. and geek protection. She then completed new transaction for a new t.v. model. A few (LITERALLY THREE) months later I needed something repaired on my BRAND NEW t.v. I was told that I didn't purchase a Geek Squad protection plan, which meant she didn't include it on the new transaction. I spoke to several representatives, explaining the situation. Each saw the returned open box tv w geek protection and new tv transaction on same dates, along w a GSP plan on every item on my acct other than the refrigerator. They claimed that there was nothing they could do and I'd have to pay full price to repair the damaged t.v that was no longer valuable being that the screen was not visibly showing picture. The repair cost was the same or slighty more than the t.v., SO I would have NEVER purchased my current computer if it weren't for the credit on one I already owned, and ESPECIALLY not a protection plan. I was still completely unhappy with the way my t.v. situation was handled by Best Buy and swore I was NEVER purchasing ANY appliance or electronics from them again ( AND I WON'T), so this plan now being invalid after a one time repair reinforces my desire to use ANY OTHER store for next purchase. The Geek Squad ppl themselves are usually friendly, knowlegable and repair any damaged devide that has a plan, as long as you make an appt when taking in. Your item will ONLY be shipped out for repair (if not something that can be done at store) if you've made an appt online. You cannot walk in and send your damaged item out for repair during that visit.

Great computer for basic searching and streaming. Nice sleek look. Sleek keys for ease of typing. Couldn't ask for a better laptop.

Good communication from the team, able to schedule appointment with no problems

Great laptop! Solid build and easy to handle. A tad bit heavy.

The "Squad" knows their stuff. Unfortunately, there are limitations to what they are allowed to do. For example: I had an issue with my trade in and couldn't leave it for them to finish the task. Just a bit of hassle.

I should of purchased the 5 year plan instead of 2 years.

Decent price knowing that I will be using this laptop everyday. Definitely read what it covers though.

Purchasing The Geek Squad protection is one of the best things that you can do when you get a device particularly a laptop from Best Buy almost every single year something happens to my laptop there's some type of malfunction with it and I have to send it in for service and there's been instances where they said they couldn't fix it so I received a credit which is a gift card towards the purchase of a new laptop the only thing that I have to do is buy a new warranty and pay the difference. I received the full purchase value of the computer so that I can get a replacement One,annoying thing I is having to bring your computer to Best Buy and it even doesn't matter if it's a small issue they have to mail it off and it takes about 2 to 4 weeks to get your device back that's a little annoying but I'd rather have the the coverage instead of the expense and hassle of trying to find someone to repair my computer or if something malfunctions with it after the manufacturer warranty having to purchase a brand new computer 100% out of pocket so this is one of the best things you can do. make sure your manufacturer doesn't have a warranty that's comfortable because sometimes it can be a little cheaper I found out when I purchased my new computer that the manufacturer had a similar warranty but was significantly less just a FYI so make sure and you still even if you purchase the computer from Best Buy in some cases you can still purchase the warranty you can purchase the warranty separately and I believe if you don't purchase your accident coverage right away you still have 30 days to get it so but you know you don't want to play with it just do your homework but coverage for your device is important

Had to replace childs chromebook this time got the insurance. Great benefits

Geeks squad was kind and patient. I went in to get my lap top fixed. They gave me a gift card instead because it couldn’t be fixed.

The one time i used their service i waited 20mins before i was acknowledged and 20mins after before a tech bgan diagnosing my machine. Thry then spent 10mins performing the same tests i described to them in person and when i booked my appointment. Then was told i have to eait 4 weeks since they cant service my machine in person. Wish there was a service center near me. Since they dont have machines they lend out while yours is being repaird, my only option to get to critical work was to purcahse a machine i can use temporarily then return it when i pick up my fixed machine (cant have it shipped home, forced to come into BestBuy)

This is the best value for your money, The teams across the country are well trained and can help you almost anytime of day. I highly recommend investing in the Geek Squad service!! Your own IT team anywhere there is a Best Buy! They can fix your computer, they can trouble shoot, they download new programs, and they do it fast!

I thank God that the GeekSquad is there to help me with technical issues. I'm glad we made the investment to protect our computer.

i didnt need to use the protection but when spending so much money on an open box product its nice having the reassurance that they can help if needed

Geek squad took care of me with my computer issue and resolved my problem
