    The agent is fixing my laptop now. Haven’t known whether they completely fixed or not yet, but their service is great.

    i bought a laptop online on june 18. Protection was activated june 19. I still do not have the laptop. It is supposed to be here june 29. I think the protection should start at the time of delivery, not purchase. Typical best buy games they play. I only bought yhe laptop thru them because it was a better deal than i found rlsewhere. i know its only 10 days so far but that is 10 days of coverage for a product i do not have yet.

    When I originally got protection for my device it was indicated that "if anything happens" I would be available for the same device with no hassle. Nope. Device USB port went out and then the sound hardware all in first year of ownership, I'm told that the device has to be mailed off for review and to get all information off what I use as my primary work device. No loaner or anything. Waste of money.

    Not that great of a protection warranty

    This is the second time that I purchased this warranty only because I didn't feel safe not having a warranty at all. The first time I spilled some water on my laptop, geek squad fixed it free of charge. It came back with other problems though that weren't there before and I kept having to send it back and forth for almost 2 months! I finally got an employee to talk to a manager to just let me get a new laptop and I still didn't even get a full reimbursement and had to pay $200 for it.

      Hi LivinLIfe42 – Having a computer break back down after a repair is always frustrating. I apologize that the process of swapping a computer out under a Geek Squad Protection plan wasn’t explained to you. If a computer is not repairable, it will be swapped out for a computer of comparable specifications. Sometimes, because of the progress of technology, that will lead you to getting less money back than you originally paid for the computer. The computer you get with that refund should be comparable to the original. If you feel that it was not, I encourage you to visit your local store and speak with a manager again.

    Bought the 3 yrs geek protection for the laptop that just not working properly and we ended up returned the laptop. But they won't let you get the credit for the $69.99 protection plan. And after argued a lot with different customer serv. finally got it back, only with gift merchandise... so dissapointed :(

    Unacceptable service time

    I purchased a $2000+ HP laptop with 3 year Geek Squad protection plan. My laptop was damaged around a year into the ownership. Best buy sent the laptop off for evaluation and a month later, i'm still waiting for either the laptop to be replaced or repaired (No communication). I work overseas so I had to spend another $2300 to purchase another as I cannot complete my work without a laptop. I expect a lot more out of the $350 i spent on the plan and the promises made during the purchase.

    Actually this was a warranty and not a service

    That said, the warranty was 2 years and looks pretty comprehensive. Hard to evaluate until / unless I actually make a claim.

    My BestBuy profile shows that I have a support plan and that Secure Anywhere is included, but the antivirus does not show in my library when I try to download. I cannot get any help by phone or chat to resolve this problem.

    I returned this with the laptop that quit on us it was a open-box so you get what you pay for rite. I chose total tech over repurchasing this & im glad i did. Sooooo many great benefits too with TT that this just doesn't even compare! Its a little pricy but pays for itself fast. Its still geek squad just with better service for us for a change !!
