Customer Ratings & Reviews

We purchased a protection plan. We do that every time we purchase an appliance because this is going to a rental house. If the tenant has a problem, they can call the Geek Squad and get it taken care of.

Considering what you get out of the Geek Squad coverage, it is quite a good value when buying for high valued, complicated equipment.

They always know how to serve the customer. Great experience.

We like that we could get extend coverage for the appliance and it will give piece of mind !

Plenty of space inside the fridge. Freezer is large and easy to open. Water dispenser is slim and works great

Haven’t used yet, but the confidence in knowing any issues will be resolved makes it worth it.

I have a 5 year protection plan on my refrigerator. It started making noise about a month ago - I called Geek Squad and they told me they were not setting up any repairs even outside of Best Buy. Then a week ago I awoke to a warm refrigerator - I called again got the same answer except this time I was told to call Samsung and ask them - I did and they sent me to a repair company that quickly fixed my refrigerator for about $500 out of my pocket!!!! I was told to send it to [email protected] and shortly there after was sent a rude email saying they would review my request in 2 weeks (felt like whenever they would get around to it). This is not the way to take care of a client - I cannot believe you are treating us this way. I will tell everyone I know in social media, Google maps, Yelp and other rating companies not to buy from you any product or warranty and I am going to write the better business bureau, CFPB and any other advocacy group to get the word out how bad of an experience this was. I completely understand keeping your employees and us safe but when it is an emergency and food is hard to come by it is mandatory to have a working refrigerator. You should have at least forwarded it to someone else and covered the costs then. I expect to hear back from someone by Friday May 1, 2020 to address my concerns or I will make good on my actions.

Have not had to use it but they seem nice when i went to pick it up

Satisfied customer will definitely recommend to others

I am currently going through a warranty claim for an LG refrigerator that had the compressor go out after about 15 months. The initial call to Geek Squad was a good one and the tech was very helpful and made it sound like my refrigerator would be back in action in 3 days. We pretty much diagnosed it over the phone and he said that the compressor is a common part and would be able to get replaced the same day. Then the night before the service I get a call from a third party that is responsible for the diagnosis saying that they cannot make the appointment. This was after rescheduling work and personal appointments that day and delaying a cross country drive that I have to make (still). From that point until 10am the next morning I have been on hold for 6 hours with 3 different entities trying to get everything sorted. The special forces ended up being the most helpful but told me all of the things I didn't want to hear (although she was great and I appreciated finally getting the correct information). The technician will pretty much never do repairs same day. Once they diagnose the purchase of parts has to be approved which likely takes 2-4 days according to the special forces rep. Then I am told by the third party technician that compressors need to be installed by someone certified to perform that work and all of their people are booked up for atleast a week. So at this point we are looking at a 2 week fix for a refrigerator but something tells me it may take even longer than that. I am living out of coolers with 2 kids and 2 old in-laws and my wife. I would rather have saved my warranty money and called a service tech on my own and have it fixed in a few days. It seems like most customer service these days, nobody is in a position with responsibility and can only pass you onto the next department. I am calling everyone I can at this point throughout Best Buy and Geek Squad to file complaint and see what can be done to remedy. Either way, this has been a joke and being without a working refrigerator for more than a few days is unacceptable when I have paid extra for the warranty.

The salesperson was very helpful and offered several different options

Extremely satisfy with our Brand New Samsung Refrigerator:) I highly recommend purchasing the protection plan! I chose the 5-year plan! Keep up the great work Best Buy! #1 in my book:)

This was a bit more than I wanted to spend, but I purchased the 5 year plan. I like the ruined food coverage, and with supply chain issues, felt it was a good value. Hope I never need it.

Absolutely won't buy something without being backed by the Geeks.

Soon after my freezer was delivered and turned on one of the shelves shattered. I called the Geek Squad and they they arranged for a replacement to be sent out a couple days later. Everyone was so nice and I am happy with my purchase.

Haven't needed to use it at the moment, and I hope I dont need too..hopefully I don't need too

I have been a long time Best Buy customer, all my electronics are from there and now a major appliance. The Best Buy protection plan has provided ease of mind that a failed unit is quickly repaired or replaced. They help every step along the way without unexpected loopholes. One word "Dependable"!!

I haven’t used it yet. Good to have it when needed

I could not function without Geek Squad support. I have had their service for years and call on their help fairly often. Their ability to remote in and fix whatever is happening is priceless. Rarely have to take computer to store for service.

Probably never happen, but just in case it breaks down two days after the manufacturer's warranty expires.
