    What?

    Why does someone need help setting up a Game system? They are pretty simplistic, so that kids can set them up. Thanks for the offer Best Buy, but kind of a waste of characters in an e-mail.

    This was never offered when I purchased my item. Got an email a few days later to make an appointment to get help setting it up. Too late after having the product for days already.

    This was a freebie with my Nintendo Switch. Not quite sure why this was even part of the deal, didn't even use them. From my past experiences they aren't that helpful to begin with

    I went to review my orders and the title was listed the same date as purchasing another product. This never happened and why it states is absolutely incorrect.

    Not interested in geek squad for install of software that I don't want to install. Don't like getting geek squad or junky software pushed on me! No spam ware!

    The worst, I took my beats back for repairs and they redirected me to the Apple store, what’s the point of having the extra insurance!

    There was no store in my area which could do the geek squad setup. Fortunately it was pretty simple and just requires some time to get use to the features.

    I used the online chat to discuss the frequent reboots and was told that I wasn't eligible for in store setup and would be charged. Not impressed.

    This was the first time that I dealt with the Geek Squad at this store. They provided little to no help. As a result I cancelled my squad contract

    I haven't found them to be truly knowledgeable. Maybe use them if computers are not your thing and you feel it is easier than doing it yourself

    Came free with a Fitbit. The set up was very simple and I didn't feel this was necessary. It might be more useful on a more technical item.

    The Geek squad has never been very helpful and I wouldn't suggest using them for any set-up.
