    Too Many Appointments to get the service you need.

    I waited two weeks for someone to come out only to be told in 10 minutes he does make repairs on our TV. He could not call the service center and schedule the right tech. I have to go back to the store again and reschedule someone who can fix the TV. Last time this happened, I had three separate techs over the course of several months. This Geek Sqad service is not convenient. Either your triage needs improvement to assign the right tech, or your techs need more training.

    I had to reschedule or cancel at the last minute due to illness. Call center was unable to reach The geek Tech. Call center is a very poorAnd only option to connect to local store. Every time poor service.

    My 3 year old LG OLED C9 with maybe 20-30 hours had sound but no picture. The 2 geek squad guys came into my house shined their cell phones on my display and told me that my display was bad and it would be $1500-$1600 to replace it. Well after these 2 goobers left after not performing a single act of troubleshooting I unplugged the tv for a few hours plugged it back in and low behold my display wasn’t bad. I’ve had to reset it again since then so there is something wrong but it sure isn’t my display. I think that BestBuy owes me a free trip to my house to really troubleshoot and diagnose my tv so that it will perform like the $2600 tv that I paid for.

    I called Magnolia over a week ago and was told someone would call me in 2-4 days. Noone has called me back. I was told to call Magnolia by your rep because the geek squad rep said he wasn’t able to reprogram our Savant remotes after he installed our new AT&T cable box. Could you please have someone from Magnolia return our call? This had been so frustrating. Thank you very much.

    2 Best Buy Geek Squad Technicians showed up to my house; they came into my home, looked at my tv; took it off the Wall Mount; Told me the BackLight was most likely out; Put the tv back on the Wall Mount; then told me that was all they could do; Didn’t tell me anything else. I ended up buying a new tv, although I shouldn’t have because if you Best Buy would honor its commitment to the warranty, it should still be good for a return and refund, correct? Thanks!

    The agent did not connect our wired camera system, claiming that he does not know how to do it. He said that I only ordered for troubleshooting not for installation. He also told me that he will call again to set me up with another technician who knows wired camera systems, but when they called, i was not able to answer so I called them again but it went to voicemail. I left a message but he didn't call back. Very poor service, overall.

    65 inch Sony TV bought at Best Buy stopped working. Made appointment and paid for Geek Squad service call. Technician not sure what was wrong, thought it could a couple of different things, but not sure if he could get parts. He was going to check to see if available and cost. My husband never heard back from tech. He tried calling him back, even went to store on Woodruff Rd to try to find out if TV could be repaired. No help from anyone. Feel like money spent for service call should be refunded. No satisfaction!

    THE UNIT STILL IS INOPERATIVE

    The agent went and checked the unit only to find it was assembled and install correctly. He toggled the on/off buttons on both the receiver and the amphlifier . He got it to work and it did for two or three times and hasn't worked since. I am very disappointed.

      There are many devices that our customers rely on daily, and when they are not working, that can be frustrating. It sounds like things were working when the unit was tested, but if you are still experiencing issues, we'd be happy to take a second look. If you'd be able to bring it to your local Best Buy, an Agent can see if they can provide any additional insight. You can schedule an in-store reservation here: www.geeksquad.com/schedule.

    I had a lovely and encouraging meeting with the Geek Squad technician, who promised to get back to me with recommendations for upgrading to a new TV since mine was not really worth repairing. He never got back to me. I have a broken TV and no help trying to select a new one. I'm disabled and can't go to the store to talk with someone. I had high hopes after meeting with him, but was disappointed in the end.

    When I was at the Saginaw store making my appointment. It too the two sales persons a half hour to make it. They did not know how to do it. A first they told me my cost would be $50.00. Then they said it would be $25.00. By the time they was done it went up to $100.00. The service agent Evan was here for 15 minutes. All he had to do was reprogram the remote. When I was making the appointment I told them that is what I thought had to be done and that is when I was told the cost would be $25.00. On my way out of the store I told what I thought was a manager what had happened and he said he would look into it. He had watched the two salesman having the problem. I think his name is Randy ,not sure of the name.

That said,w e're happy to hear that Evan provided you with top-notch service in the end.

    The techs were lovely, but absolutely unable to help. Despite being PERFECTLY clear about what the issue was and what we needed when I scheduled the appointment, the techs sent did not work with the product in question. They openly let me know that the off shore appointment scheduling team was terrible, and that if I wanted the correct team to be sent I should have made the appointment in store. They stayed less than 5min and offered no assistance. We were still billed in full for the appointment.

    Hi, I had a guy come out,he looked at the TV and went through the needed check offs to determine what was wrong. He said that he would get back to me that afternoon with a price to come and replace the needed parts. I have not heard back from him. That was Saturday November 30th. Pretty disappointed with the no follow through.
