So far I haven't had to use it yet, but I'm glad I have it.

I have not used it as of yet but think i am gonna be have to bring my computer in to get it unlocked. Can't figure out what I did. And can't seem to get it unlocked.

I have mixed feelings about this service bc I purchased a computer before my current one and probably sent it out to be "repaired" more times than any normal person. It was always something w screen that needed fixing. The fourth or fifth time I was told that they were returning the laptop and crediting me what it was valued at in Best Buy store credit, which I was told was to be used for purchasing new/refurbished/open box laptop. This second laptop was larger and heavier than the Acer laptop that was thin and lightweight, similar to Apple Air. I wanted same thing, but couldn't find one in brand I wanted or without having to dish out a couple extra hundred $$s, so I went w an openbox Samsung Chromebook. It works great, syncs to other devices via wifi/bluetooth/etc. After taking it to be repaired once I was told that the $40 something ish 2 yr geek squad plan was no longer valid bc whatever part they replaced fulfilled the cost. I thought that was the entire purpose of insurance. Pay monthly price or one time in this case to cover your item for a period after the manufacturers warranty. So, when the power chord stopped charging the computer, I still took it in and they pretty much told me to buy another one bc. Luckily, I called the parts store and they replaced bc geek squad plan does provide ONE replacement power chord for device AND bc it was still under the yr of manufacturer's warranty. HOWEVER, around time I purchased the first computer is when I started using Best Buy more, after finding my $3300 Samsung Refrigerator in a storeroom floor for $1300 open box & scratch at bttm. $1500 after taxes/etc bc even paying for delivery wasn't an option. Had to pick up ourselves, but it ended up being a reliable rerigerator, despite not originally wanting one w tablet built in door. I began replacing my t.v.'s through Best Buy instead of Target, who was GREAT when purchased one before your store. I ordered an open box t.v, soundbar & a Geek Squad protection plan for both, via BB online and picked up at local store. It was only $20 ish less than a new version in same model. It ended up being in worse condition than advertised so I returned at the store and ended up purchasing the new version. A female manager at the Brookes City Base San Antonio store assisted w the return/exchange after associate completed my cc payment transaction. I don't remember why she didn't do an exchange, which would have led to me charging the small difference on the same BB credit card. She returned the item completely and my card was credited for the price of open box t.v. and geek protection. She then completed new transaction for a new t.v. model. A few (LITERALLY THREE) months later I needed something repaired on my BRAND NEW t.v. I was told that I didn't purchase a Geek Squad protection plan, which meant she didn't include it on the new transaction. I spoke to several representatives, explaining the situation. Each saw the returned open box tv w geek protection and new tv transaction on same dates, along w a GSP plan on every item on my acct other than the refrigerator. They claimed that there was nothing they could do and I'd have to pay full price to repair the damaged t.v that was no longer valuable being that the screen was not visibly showing picture. The repair cost was the same or slighty more than the t.v., SO I would have NEVER purchased my current computer if it weren't for the credit on one I already owned, and ESPECIALLY not a protection plan. I was still completely unhappy with the way my t.v. situation was handled by Best Buy and swore I was NEVER purchasing ANY appliance or electronics from them again ( AND I WON'T), so this plan now being invalid after a one time repair reinforces my desire to use ANY OTHER store for next purchase. The Geek Squad ppl themselves are usually friendly, knowlegable and repair any damaged devide that has a plan, as long as you make an appt when taking in. Your item will ONLY be shipped out for repair (if not something that can be done at store) if you've made an appt online. You cannot walk in and send your damaged item out for repair during that visit.

Peace of mind knowing if anything happens to the laptop it can be replaced is priceless.

This protection is definitely worth the price. If you ever have a problem, all you have to do is contact them and they can help.

Always a pleasure to know the Geek Squad has my back when life doesn't. Knowing I can get help at any Best Buy in the entire U.S. is such a peace of mind!

Thankfully haven't had to use the protection plan with this purchase, however I have used a protection plan with previous purchases & it was a quick & easy process.

I am so very glad that I purchased this Geek Squad Service. I've already had cause to call in for assistance 3 times since I purchased it after buying my new home and moving here to Missouri from Texas about 5 months ago. I was diagnosed with cancer nearly 5 yrs. ago and was then turned over to hospice and not expected to live. All of the Radiation caused nerve damage and I lost most of the use of one hand and part of the other. The Chemo triggered a horrible form of dementia. After being miraculously healed of Cancer and released from Hospice all of the rest really put me behind as I muddled my way out of the dementia. It's been such a long journey, so when I get a bit confused and simply pick up the phone to call for help figuring things out from the Geek Squad it truly has been a life saver for me. Thank you so much Geek Squad for always being so Kind, Helpful & Professional!!! Terry

I recently used Geek Squad to help fix my laptop and I was very impressed with the service. The technician was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. They quickly diagnosed the problem and explained everything clearly. Within 30 min, my device was up and running smoothly. What really stood out to me was the extra effort they took to ensure all my questions were answered, or the convenience of the computer. Overall, I highly recommend Geek Squad to anyone needing reliable tech support.

Good plan at a good price! You get your money back on the first use of the Geek Squad.

The protection is a no brainer. Laptop needed to be fixed and I didn't have to drop any money

My laptop fizzed out and could not be repaired after almost three years. I was given store credit for a new upgrades one! I also purchased geek squad 3year warranty for the new one.

Peace of mind is absolutely worth it. Easy to understand coverage, helpful support, and reassuring to have accidental protection in case anything happens. Glad I added this.

Haven’t used it yet but I do trust them I’m taking care of my computer I really do appreciate this computer

I needed a laptop to supplement my desktop, so I went to Best Buy to take a look. I found the exact one I was looking for. An HP Envy 17.3" laptop with w/touchscreen. I've been using it now for 8 months, and it has been beautiful. I couldn't be happier with my choice.

Best Buy Geek Squad is the BEST!! I've rarely had issues with products but when I do Geek Squad is on it!!

All of the items that I purchased within the last 45 days have been great. Staff was very helpful in my decisions. Keep up the good work.

Value, faster respond and solutions to resolve. Very easy process.

The Geek Squad is definitely a group of electronic wizards! Luckily for me because I have no such powers, but now they are on my team, and that makes me feel even better about my purchase.
