Used services of Geek Squad for hard drive problem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Geek Squad was great. The in store salesperson knew what he was doing and was most helpful. I especially was pleased with the follow up and the courteous manner with which my computer download to an external hard drive was handled.

NONEXISTENT PHONE SERVICE
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had my external hard drive sent in for a repair only for them to not be able to be reached by phone when I received a text that data repair services were ready. I continuously tried to reach them, but no one was ever available. Today I get a call that my hard drive was sent back to the store I shipped it from and that they cannot help me. Totally goes against the terms and conditions that I signed when I sent it in and spent $50 on a service I never got. Today I spent over an hour (already) trying to reach someone at Geek Squad to help, but unsurprisingly they couldn’t! Thanks so much Geek Squad for helping me get my family photos back! Really appreciate the communication!

Posted .Hi there. Thank you for taking time to share this with us. I'm sorry to hear about this poor experience and the inability to get adequate assistance. This is not the level of service we aim to provide our customers. I'd definitely recommend getting some answers from the agents at your local Best Buy when you pick up the hard drive. We hope to better serve you in the future! You can find information about your local store at www.bestbuy.com/storelocator.

Pricey data recovery

Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Though geek squad agents kept me updated on the processes involved with recovering data from my HDD, I unfortunately found the service to be much more expensive than necessary.

had to be sent out
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The person helping me in store was GREAT! When the hard drive was sent out I was told it would take 2 weeks. Never heard from them until 24days later saying they needed my password. So Im having a supervisor look into this. Very unhappy that I was pushed aside or just plain forgot. Thats all I needed was data recovery.

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.

Data recovery is a black box.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've heard no information on my recovery service in three weeks, and every call I've made to the service center is sent to voice mail or told it's the wrong department. Even the online tracking has disappeared.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GeekSquadSupport
Posted .Thank you for letting us know about your experience. When Clients come to us with the request to have data recovered, that often indicates the information is extremely important, so it stands to reason you’d be looking for an update after several weeks. It would be odd for the online tracking to not be visible, and I am sorry to hear you are having difficulties connecting with someone for support. I’d encourage you to call Geek Squad at (800) GEEKSQUAD, (800) 433-5778, where a Geek Squad Agent can verify the necessary information to track down your service order.
