A no brainer for expensive items

2+ months without my computer and no updates!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've now gone 2 months without my computer and while they say I should be getting a new one soon, I'm not holding my breath. This all happened at the start of the coronavirus stay-at-home order, so I would understand some delays, but that is not enough to excuse the poor service I've gotten. I originally sent my laptop in with obvious hardware issues. They ignored the things I told the agent I chatted with and that I wrote on the paperwork I sent in with the machine (like how it crashed when the device was moved... again, obviously a hardware issue) and just reinstalled Windows and sent it back claiming they had tested all the hardware and it was all fine. It crashed literally the first time I tried to boot it up, so I'm very skeptical that they actually tested anything. So then I had to send it back, but they wouldn't do anything to help remedy the first mistake they made. They wouldn't even let me reuse the same box. I had to wait for them to ship another one. They never gave me any real reason as to why. I found online myself that the whole process of a customer shipping directly to them, instead of taking it into a store, was new, I guess, because of the coronavirus, but I was never told that by the customer service person or any of the managers I spoke to. The only explanation I got was an extremely flippant manager saying "we can't change the process because that's the process." So I had to wait for a new box, ship the laptop out again, and then got basically no updates unless I actually called. When I did call, they told me they were waiting on parts but they would "escalate" my case so I would get a call with any updates. I got a call a few days later saying they had no idea when they would get the parts. Almost TWO WEEKS later, I got an email telling me the pickup location had changed for my device, and their online tracker said that they MAY have to replace it. The location they changed it to was Kentucky. I live in California. 2 days later, with still no update on whether or not they're actually going to replace my device, I called for an update. Turns out a "glitch in their system" meant that my new device (that I was never even informed I was getting) was sent to the wrong side of the country. Now I have a new case number and I have to call back in a few days if I don't hear from them (highly likely) to figure out if they're going to send it to a local store or directly to me. I'm assuming it's still going to be several days after that before I actually get my computer. So we'll see if I actually get a new computer like they promised, but this whole experience has been awful. I guess it'll be nice if, in the end, I get a new device out of this, but next purchase like this I make, I'll definitely be looking elsewhere for a warranty.

Covered my headphones for a year w/ great service
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.1 year accidental or multiple year accidental protection is a most for smaller appliances like headphones, chargers, etc. I unfortunately ruined some good skullcandy headphones accidentally and got it covered within that first year.

Safe but protected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have not used this. However, a few years back I spilt an entire cup of coffee on my new dell computer. Split the usb plug-ins I bought this protection in case I did something dumb again. Lol

Beat Buy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was an easy decision thanks to (Ash) the associate who educated me on it. So many benefits that come along with coverage so I would highly recommend to any Best Buy regulars or bug tech buyers.

Great Warranty program.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have previously used this service and it is one of the best ones out there. Anytime you have a problem you can either go to a store or online and get replacement very easily. With kids it's an absolute must.
