    Appointment was scheduled for 11/24 between 13 and 8. Morning of 24th go email saying arrival would be 1:30 to 5:30. 3:46 said 4:00. 5:30 no had showed and called Geek Squad. Nice person on phone and she eventually came back saying the appoinment had been canceled. She put me on hold to find out more info and after 5 min or so i was disconnected. Shortly after received email that appointment was canceled with no explanation and told to reschedule. Poor business practice. First problem 8n years with Geek Squad.

    I love the TV and the mounting is awesome but it keeps turning off by itself whenever I’m watching TV. Very frustrating. Can you please send someone back out?

    Install of TV mount and TV

    The install was extremely disappointing. One month later, the TV mount literally came out of the wall. My daughter thankfully was able to catch the mount and TV so nothing was damaged. I called Geek Squad and the person claimed that we would have to pay for a new installation until I questioned if the Geek Squad would not stand by their work when it happened 1 month after install. The person apologized. And the new install appt was made at no charge. We'll see if this installation works out. I do say we are more nervous about the quality of the work done by this group and hope this was just a one time bad experience.

    there is a delay in the video from the audio when watching cable and I called immediately after they installed it. I could not get any help, so made the drive 30 minutes to the store, got an appointment made, only to have Best Buy cancel it and tell me to call to reschedule, which I called 4 times and kept getting disconnected. Horrible service!!

    On the day of my mounting appointment, I was informed that they were going to arrive that day. No one showed up and my appointment was canceled without me even knowing. I went to the store to get some answers and I was directed to the Area manager in which he directed them to come 3 days later. My trip had to be rescheduled because of the change and there was absolutely NO COMPENSATION for the mess up on their end

    When you are going to have Best Buy install and mount your TV, bevsure the Geek Squad is coning out to do it and not a 3rd party. It took over 5 WEEKS to get our TV installed and mounted!! The 3rd party installers Best Buy sent out could not figure out how to mount the TV and its One Connect box on the wall. Then the next 3rd party was TOO SHORT to be able to do the job!! It took a 2 weeks to get a member of the Geek Squad to come out to get the job done and get our TV working. Very frustrating.

    Told them in store I wanted TV hung, soundbar mounted and wiring done in wall to get routers etc off fireplace mantel. "No problem". I was given a 4 hour window, 8-12. They FINALLY show up at 3:30 and then told me they couldn't mount the soundbar OR do the wiring to move stuff off mantel. After waiting 7.5 hours I was not happy and told them to leave. I was able to get a refund (after telling story to 5 different people). I will NOT use Greed Squad again.

    They did a fair job. I had to hire an outside contractor to finish the job correctly. I asked a person in the store about having geek squad do the additional work and was told I would be charged for it. What is the use of being a member of geek squad? It seems that the way geek squad works changed just after I joined. I joined to extend my warranty and am now sorry that I did.

    The agents mounted my tv but were sweaty, not covering their face with masks and NOT staying 6ft away from me. They also had the nerve to sit on my clean furniture. It’s COVID people!!!! Be safe.

    Instead of actual Geek Squad people showing up, a couple of guys showed up from Texas Homepros. They delivered the TV, but since the electrical outlet was not in the best place they left. After much difficulty contacting them, I just installed the thing by myself and hired an electrician to install an outlet for the wall mount. Sorry Best Buy. Recommendation: use Geek Squad.

    Geek Squad did not program my remote

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I paid for a TV installation and remote control set up. The team came out and mounted my TV but, they said we do not program your remote control. I advised I paid for you to do this according to my work order. They said no, you did not. I was told I could read the directions and do it myself. After they left, I called and verified that I did in fact pay for them to program my remote. There seems to be a disconnect between your sales staff and the Geek Squad. The Geek Squad is not receiving all the information or they just don't care.

    Great technician but a mounting problem

    This is tough to answer. As far as the ability of the technicians, it was a 5. The problem was a box that came with the TV. To mount it the way the book said it would have stuck out from the wall about 6 inches. They used to wire ties to secure it. They said they would look for a better solution and call. To date no call.

    Geek Squad didn't meet my expectations ! Best Buy sold me this service and promised the squad would set up the new tv and show me how to use all the features. This was not the case. They gave me very little help setting up the tv. They rushed through the small amount of instruction offered and seemed to only care about getting to the next job.

    Rude. Had no idea what they were doing. Has cost me an additional 700.00 for electricians to fix their mess. Didn't even try to hook up sound bar. Extorted me on the spot to take old TV off the wall even though I had paid for them to move to another area. Horrible experience. Will never shop at Best Buy again or recommend to anybody.

      Hi pooh – Thank you for reaching out to us about this. We’d like to go over the details of your service experience with you, because what you describe is not at all the kind of service we want to offer. Please give us a call at 1-800-GEEKSQUAD (1-800-433-5778) with your order number so we can discuss this. If we didn’t complete a service that you paid for we should be able to either reschedule it or refund you.

      We appreciate the feedback on your recent television installation. Based on the details you’ve provided, it sounds like this is not the first time we’ve been invited into your home to complete a television service, and I certainly wish this repeat visit would have mirrored the first. There are some instances that may extend the length of time it takes to complete this type of work, but our goal is to get things done as quickly as possible, all while ensuring things are done to standards. There seems to be some concerns with the power kit and the placement. If you’d like to speak directly to a Geek Squad Agent about possible options, please call (800) GEEKSQUAD, (800) 433-5778. We’d be glad to see if we can have options to assist!

    The subcontracted crew refused to do a ceiling mount, telling me that the bracket that I’d purchased was the wrong kind. They were lazy and didn’t want to go through the efforts of doing it the right way. Never, ever, will I hire Best Buy to do any mounts ever again. If I could give them zero stars I would.
