Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased the 2-year Geek Squad Protection Plan thinking it would provide immediate coverage if something went wrong with my new TV. Unfortunately, that’s not the case. What they don’t tell you upfront is that if your product is still under the manufacturer’s warranty, Geek Squad won’t help you, they’ll just refer you back to the manufacturer. That means you’re really only getting about one year of coverage, not two, because Geek Squad won’t step in until the manufacturer’s warranty expires. To make things even more frustrating, if your TV is wall-mounted, Best Buy won’t unmount it for you unless you pay an additional $150 or hire someone else to do it before they’ll even assist you. So, even though you pay extra for “full protection,” it doesn’t actually feel like full protection at all. This experience feels misleading and like false advertising. When you buy a 2-year protection plan, you expect help anytime during those two years, not to be bounced between companies or charged extra just to start the replacement process. Customers deserve better transparency about what this plan actually covers and when it applies.

I love to always get a Protection for the years cause you never know what will happen. It’s better to be safe than sorry.

The sales representatives were very helpful and the checkout time was very good and the customer services was good also.

With this protection I feel very comfortable with all my kids around the products that I purchased

Smart purchase. Why not buy a warranty for a new tv

We have always purchased coverage on electronics with Best Buy!! Always a great investment if something goes wrong!!

Customer was amazing. My tv would no longer power on. The geek squad agent quickly and thoroughly looked for replacement. Parts we're no longer available. He was offer a full refund for the TV or replace it for something of a similar value. This was all a matter of 5 days. Very happy with the service.

This is the perfect item to have. It is protection for my items purchased.

Well .. now I have u big tv .. I hope never have to use squad service.. but .. if something happens.. they will take care

Always good to add a protective plan just in case accidents happen

Purchased 5 year warranty for an open box TCL TV R646. They were professional and helpful when advising on the 5 year warranty. I have no issues with tv so far but good to know I have that extra warranty/coverage in case anything happens.

So we got this after debating several monitor choices for our new PC, and I'm so glad I decided to grab this. It's great for gaming, okay for office work, incredible for watching shows and movies. It's only 42 inches, which is small for me for movies, but the quality is out of this world. I usually go for soundbars/speakers right away but I found the built in speakers to be manageable for now. Love it!

Purchased for a client to add protection at the time as I was unaware of the model. I was just a little more piece of mind at the time of purchase. Well, almost 2 years later, the client returns from a long trip to discover the center of the screen was darkened. Forgetting I had the coverage until i looked up the info to find a similar size (vesa mount was an issue), and discovered i had purchased the protection. A few calls later, it was determined that repair wasn't feasible and replacement for a current model of similar price and size would be initiated. The process went smoothly, they delivered the new set and even took down the mounted set, which was another surprise because I was under the impression i was going to have to do that, but they beat me to it. Overall, very happy I added it to the purchase, the client is very happy as well as they were thinking they were going to have to buy another. Smiles all around!

Geek squad lives up to its warranty good value. geeks forever

Very helpful. They make it effortless when there is something wrong

This protection was absolutely worth it! I had previously had a 4K TV that crapped out on me several years ago and would've cost more to fix than to just get a new TV. That's when I learned that I should protect my new TV with Geek Squad 5-yr Protection since my old TV didn't even make it past 5 years. And I'm so glad I did! This TV had crapped out on me due to power outages that messed up the TV's power supply that gradually declined over time until it became inoperable. This plan was a lifesaver and I was able to get the value of my TV applied to a new TV purchase, which I used to get the same TV I had before because I loved it so much before the power outage and killed it over time.

Had to use my extended warranty. Best Buy was very helpful and took care of the problem. They credited the full cost of my old tv to my new tv, Would recommend the extended warranty. It saved me a lot of money. Happy customer.

I would recommend a Geek squad protection plan for most any product that cannot be easily replaced for over $150 dollars, be it electronics or appliance's. Best Buy's protection plan in my opinion has been one of the best around. We have had several products that have failed and Best Buy, as long as it was covered, has stuck to their promise, if they could fix it, they did. if not, they either replaced it with a brand new product or they gave us the money back for the product and allowed us to purchase a brand new product because they no longer carried that product. It was really a no hassle thing and I could not be happier to recommend it anyone. I am sure there are some stipulations that we have not ran into, but we have had no problems at all in the 5 products we have had issues with in the 12 years or more we have purchased Best Buy protection plans.

Haven't had to use Geek Squad yet which could be a good thing!

Tvs are made to break eventually, whether its the leds, motherboards, wear and tear, etc....devices aren't made to last anymore and they become obsolete eventually. Such is the way now.....I think its always best to get the protection plan.
