Buyer Beware-Geek Squad is a costly, empty promise
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.SO FRUSTRATED. Remote for tv intermittedly fails. Geek Squad phone lines leave me on hold for hour at a time w/o resolution. Filed BBB complaint and Best Buy’s reply was simply ‘call Geek Squad,’ case closed. Used YouTube to find partial fix. Geek Squad is a costly, empty promise.

Don't shop open box
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this open box. upon inspection at the store I noticed visible dents and fingerprints all over the screen so I refused pick up. somehow those clowns still marked me as picking up the product and I had to dispute the charge with my credit card company

TV screen cracked. There goes the excitement …
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was so excited about the TV. Hired someone to take the other one. Hired experts to unbox it and install it. When we turn it on, the screen is cracked in several places. What a disappointment. On the phone with customer service who tells me I have to call back in 24 hours. Unbelievable. All the money spent for this hassle.

Worst Customer Service Ever
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I called one of their reps regarding the calibration of the TV. All in all the rep was rude and condescending. I repeatedly asked to talk to his supervisor and he refused saying he needed my account info before he could proceed. I gave him the info and requested again that I speak to his supervisor. He became belligerent and started questioning me why I wanted to talk to the supervisor.. After several attempts he hung up on me. This after a 10 minute hold to talk to someone. I complained to Best Buy and all they said was "I'm sorry to hear about an unpleasant experience you've had with one of our Geeksquad phone agents. I understand that can be disappointing. I'll be happy to take note of your concern." That was it, this coupled with the fact the hold times in contacting them can be as much a half an hour, I definitely won't be buying that again.

WASHED OUT COLORS
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.DO NOT BUY THIS TV! Color is washed out and you see very bad blooming on the edges of the TV because it is an edge lit TV. Why does Samsung even still make edge lit TV's. I have a TU7000 from 2020 and it was back lit and the color is beautiful and there is almost no blooming on dark scenes on that TV. Samsung has gotten cheap and I will never buy a Samsung product again!

Burnt $500 by buying Geek Squad Protection
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Waste of money. Doesnt cover anything the manufactures warranty doesnt cover. The cost to fix the tv is equivilant to the price of a new tv. OTR truck driver and someone cracked the corner of tv while on the road, geek squad came looked at the tv and quoted me $1800 to replace the screen. Another option they gave me was to buy a new tv. You get nothing for spending the extra money, other than losing extra money on top of the price of the tv is something happens to it.

Best buy Credit card is a Joke
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By using credit card "Rewards" earned to purchase items, you can no longer use the price match guarantee. Even if your rewards used on a purchase is only a small fraction of the cost you are no longer eligible. Seeing how electronics are always in flux, you would be much better not using the best buy card. In my recent situation it cost me $300 dollars, which I could have received had I not used my earned rewards on this purchase. I will not be using Best Buy for any future purchases. Disgusting company policy!

Geek squad Warranty is a joke
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sadly the extra protection warranty does not cover accidental damage on televisions. Basically it’s an extended warranty. Extremely disappointed I had tech come to my house and tell me my warranty did not cover a cracked screen even after when I called and started the claim online they said it would be covered. Been a long time total tech member and have spent countless thousands at Best Buy, but never again.

THE WORST. DONT GET A WARRANTY WITH BEST BUY!!!!!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought a warranty for my TV through best buy geek squad. TV broke and I needed to get it repaired. Best buy gave me an 8 hour window of service (12-8pm). They told me that the tech would call me 30 min before servicing. NO CALL NO SHOW!!!! Completely blew me off and never called me once. I called customer service and asked to speak with a supervisor, and was told the supervisor was too busy to talk. UNREAL!!!! THEY DONT CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS.....RUN AWAY!!!

GEEK SQUAD PROTECTION IS A JOKE
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought Geek Squad protection for our TV but when it broke it wasn't covered. I chatted online & explained what happened. They told me to take it in to the local store so I did. Only to waste a drive & a wait in line to be told that accidental wasn't covered. 1. I would have NEVER bought the warranty had I known that. 2. I would not have wasted my time driving out there. They were very rude & could care less. It only covers pixels going out & things like that. What a joke. Don't waste your money

Black screen issue
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased in Feb of 24 over an lg as we own 3 other Samsungs. Just 1.5 months in and it’s being serviced. Screen went black, sound still works, light on bottom blinks. Called Samsung service and tried all the reset tricks with no luck. Of course it’s past its best buy return period. Will be seeking another brand for future purchases.

Extended Warranty????
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Extended Warranty? You think you are getting additional 2 years on top of 1 year manufacture warranty. Not so, warranty is total 2 years. Of course, it stops working right after 2 year mark. No picture. should have bought the one I wanted, Samsung only going forward.

Extended return period for store credit, not warra
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is not a warranty, it’s an extended return period to give you store credit. All the talk about replacing with same model or next one up are lies. They offered me a tv far worse specs then the one I had. Save your money

Bust Buy Fraud
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought an open box version of this product, and recently found the number of hours the TV has been turned on (deep in the menus). MY "OPEN BOX" TV HAD BEEN ON FOR OVER 4000 HOURS. Was likely a store display for over a year. This is NOT open box, this is fraud to pass this item off as almost new. Respond, Best Buy.

Not Worth It
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this with my Sharp 4k TV at one of the bestbuy in-store locations. They said this plan would take care if my TV is damaged and would help me with fixing or replacing the TV. The TV's remote got damaged and when I reached out to them, they said this is not covered. If a small remote is not covered after paying some $60, I'm not sure if other things like screen damage are covered. I would definitely save my money and not buy this next time.
