Tv IS THE WORST
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This has to be the worst tv I’ve ever own. There’s these white in and out lines that pop up at the edge of the tv the sound is horrible I added the protection plan when I purchased this TV I want my money back or a newer one soon as I open it looked refurbished

Unhappy customer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a 5 year warranty on my old TV that had speaker issues, which they decided to swap out with another TV same make model but 3 years newer. Took over 2 weeks of my 30 day return policy to receive the new TV. And when I did receive the TV notice right away that it was very cheaply built compared to my last one and unfortunately noticed to late that the screen and back of TV was split down the side from being dropped which now the 30 day warranty has passed.

Tried to Refund TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Didn’t go in depth with my order, although they were really friendly. I tried to refund my tv because I had black streaks and darkness in certain spots, redirected me to the manufacturer’s instead and was unable to refund or get a new tv before my Geek Squad Protection plan expired.

Think about passing up Insignia and Geek Squad
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the TV in 2019. Power board failed and replaced in 2020. With warranty still left in 2024 the TV fails again and they tell me it possibly won’t be covered/will be junked. What’s the purpose of the warranty???

Frustrated!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just purchased a new Sony 75'' tv and the 2 yr extended Geek Squad warranty. Brought it home myself. They wanted 200.00 buck's to deliver and set it up. I got a friend to help with unboxing and set up. " It takes two people to unbox and set up this big tv. " Out of the box the new Sony TV has a bad Pixel. Red dot with a line all the way across the screen. First, I was asked to bring it back in for exchange myself? Of course I said no, I purchased the "Geek Squad Warranty ". They told me if I had any issues they'd come to my house and fix it.! Long story short. Even though I purchased the " Geek Squad Warranty " where they said they would come out and fix my tv at my house for no charge,... they said because it's still covered by the manufactures warranty they would have to send it back to the manufacturer for repairs! Could take weeks. They will exchange it and deliver me a new tv at no charge and set it inside my house and pick up the old new tv but that's it. I will be responsible for unboxing and setting up the new tv again myself and disposing of the big box and all of the packaging. Also, today is the 4th of July 2024, my appointment for receiving my replacement TV is 7/17/24, 13 day's from now and the the so called NARROW appointment window on the 17th is 7 am to 7 pm.!! Really?? Lol. I need to be available for 12 hours? Is the best we can do? I'm glad I have the warranty or I'd have to box this thing back up and return it myself but I'm disappointed that I got a defective tv, that's on Sony. I paid big buck's for what I expected to be a top Quality product! I'm also disappointed that Best Buy won't just come out and fix this TV, that's why I paid for the warranty! So I wouldn't have to go through all of this hassle with returns, exchanges etc.

Great for a couple years
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The TV was good until it wasn’t. Everything was great and the clarity was amazing until right around the time the geek squad protection plan expired. A little over two years the clarity is horrible and liked shows here and there thought out the sceeen. What looks like white lines are not apart of the show as this is how is shows up

Why did I get this if they're not helping me?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My brand new LG TV (December) went out and Best Buy passed me along to LG because it was still under warranty. Best Buy would have had this already fixed, but now my TV is out, has been for over a week and the terrible repair people that LG passed me off on are saying that MAYBE sometime next week it will be fixed. TERRIBLE! Why did I pay Best Buy extra to protect it if they are not doing anything about my dead TV? I sure hope that 2 year protection plans restarts itself once my TV is actually operational again.

TOOK more then 90 days to get a new tv had to rent
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Same as the last time this is my second time dealing with geek squad replacements. They kept replacing the board which DID NOTHING!!! i was without a tv for almost 2 months . I had to rent a tv for 89 a month until they said they needed the board to fail 3 times instead of giving a replacement. So it was a 1500 dollar tv the reciept showed every main board was 1199 so they spent 3 times the tv's cost in repairs plus whatever it cost the truck and workers and then the 4th time when they picked up the tv and dropped off the other. This is crazy and if they just stopped this weird policy i dont know if its made up or what because it was the same guy every time i do not know if he was just saying this to pocket the money or what but its a crazy thing to do keep putting something that does nothing to fix it 3 times and wasting money and everyones time and making me have to rent a tv for a month. Honestly the only reason i give 2 stars is becAUSE they finally gave me a new tv what the old one was worth.

Needs Improvement
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been a customer of geek squad over 20 years, and they're quality has declined. Had a product go bad in 6 months and the price of the item doubled. They did not pro-rate my credit and gave me minimal options but to upgrade to a way more expensive item, even though i wanted a direct replacement or next comparable item for my warranty.

REplacement took months of wasted everything .
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.for tv it was kind of brutal . The tv was broke the guy had to come out and change the main board in the tv before giving us a new tv. So this took almost 2 months. We did not have a tv for almost 2 months Every time they came they had to replace the same thing ... The tv was 500 dollars instead of replacing it they spent 3000 on 3 boards that did not work, whatever they had to pay the guys to come out and work every time for 2 hours, This was honestly ridiculous. Nothing made sense. luckily we finally got the replacement after the 3rd time and thats the only reason we get 1 more star.

Geek Squas is useless and a waste of money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not buy Geek protection as it is usless: they will keep your item for as long as they want without replacement

WilliamW
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its always a pain to return a tv through geek squad. From the initial call which you almost always have to wait 20 minutes . They always seem to have a real problem finding my service plan. I have multiple accounts and have bought many many tvs from them but they should be able to figure it out. I own sportsbars in FL and I only buy from Best Buy but they really needto figure this out because when i have a tv go down i want it back up and running as quick as possible but its always a hassle. At each of my clubs i have a back up ready to replace tvs that go down so my actual business is never really effected but we always regret having to call geek squad because we know its gonna be such a hassle and its gonna be a lot of time sitting on phone having to wait for a service guy to come out and tell us what we already know then take it to a store and replace. It would be nice if they brought a replacement tv with them when they come out. But instead u have to get a service order made then you got to call geek squad again and wait on line for 20 minutes. Then usually another 10 or 20 minutes to find the info from the multiple accounts. I have never had anyone help me combine all accounts into 1 account. It seems like that would make the most sense but instead i have to go through the same process every time. Its exausting. I love Best Buy but service plans are always a pain for me.

Dont cover everything they day they cover
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They dont cover all cases they have listed and tey to escape from providing coverage. But do provide basic coverage. Overall not worth it. Paying 30 bucks to cover TV worth 150 bucks.

Stray Help
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got nothing from them. Just that they will ignore you if you do not have a plan or something with them, rather will not give any help efforts.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really hate there is no voice control on this tv. I didn't notice that it didn't have it until I got it home. The remote buttons are Soooo tiny. Its all black and vey hard to use. It takes forever to get to the sleep timmer amd thats a feature I really like to use. I was laid up and couldn't go see this in person and no way to return it. The picture is good.

Parts replacement
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When replacement parts are needed that are included in the protection plan. You must order yourself and send them all necessary information to receive a reimbursement. Very convoluted process for a simple fix. Needs optimizing.

Warranty sucks
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our tv went out a week and a half ago, called Best Buy since we bought the warranty. They have given us (7!!!!!!) different appointment times for someone to come to our house and today makes 4 no shows for someone to repair, they say we can’t bring the 75in to the store because it’s over the 42in limit….. do not waste your money on the warranty because Best Buy DOES NOT fulfill it. We have talked to store managers, geek squad, repair guys, worst experience ever when it comes to fixing our crap
