Very expensive for ext hard-drive data recovery
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First of all the service I got was pretty good, thus the 2-stars, but in order to recover my failed external hard-drive data, it would've cost me $1,400. I'm glad they warned me about the cost. I decided not to go forward with the service.

Posted .Thanks very much for your feedback on the cost of data recovery. it can get pretty pricey due tot he amount of work involved in getting data off of a damaged drive. If you ever change your mind and need that data, please bring the drive back in to us.

Not a good service
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was informed over the phone that the recover service was $150.00 which was great when I got to the store I was informed it $450.00 to sent it out to have the recovery performed. I then had to purchase a Hard Drive to store the data when recovered. If I was told to being a hard drive with me I would have. The laptop was gone for over almost 2 weeks when they called and then informed me it would cost $1000.00 to maybe recover the data. Total disappointed with this service.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We do our best to provide as many service options as possible. In some cases, work can be done inside our stores, and in other cases, devices may need to be sent out for repair. Receiving an accurate quote on services is certainly important, and I wish these options had been explained better over the phone. We are always looking for ways we can improve, so again, we appreciate you sharing this with us.

Terrible waste of time and money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We used Geek Squad to help with Data Recovery on an external hard drive that died. First, the guy took almost an hour to figure out how to make it happen. Then it cost me a ton of money, almost $250 for them to just mail it off. Then weeks later they finally got back to us only to tell us it was going to take even more time, finally we find out it's $2500 to recover the data. Why in the world would they charge us that kind of money just to mail something that would only eventually cost us $2500. Ridiculous.

Data Recovery
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Geek Squad kept me well informed on how things were going. They were unfortunately unable to retrieve my date but they gave me other option on how to get my date off my external hard drive.

Recover data
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Price provided ($700) to recover data on hard drive way too high and unreasonable. I can buy a new hard drive with data pre-loaded on it for half the price provided to recover the data.

Service not what I expect from you guys
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got 3 different answers to how I can pay for data recovery: -yes, I can use the $100 best buy rewards toward payment, yes I can use it but must go to a physical store to do so, no I cannot use $100 rewards and no I cannot pay in the store. Been doing business with bb for quite a few years. Very frustrated. Then I call data recovery ( no less than 6 times in past week), told I'm #2 in queue then abruptly told t leave questions message and nothing.....

Two Separate Jobs
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.External Hard Drive was sent off and was told it would be around $1300 to recover. Declined. Local geek squad tried to recovered data from a desk top hard drive and could not recover. I took it to PC Help and they recovered it and created me an external drive with the data.

Great job
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unfortunately, my local Geek Squad wasn't able to recover the data on my hard disk and had to send it off. However, they did a great job setting up the process for me and communicating how it would all work.
