    Products have not been used to security issues that had to be resolved using Geek Squad. My last visit to Geek Squad made the most progress in securing my laptop's easy access to others. Password to unlock laptop was not in place. I will keep you updated. Thank you

    DO NOT buy software here. I did yesterday, and Best Buy sent me a key code, the problem being Microsoft wouldn’t accept it. An hour online with support, who couldn’t do anything. Two calls to their, um, “support,” who dutifully took all the info on me they already had and then disconnected me. I am never mean yo support staff, as it’s never their fault, but enough is enough, but once is an error, twice is the finger. I’m getting a credit from my credit card, and I’m so done with Best Buy.

    Buy elsewhere

    The card doesn't work if purchased online because it has to be activated at the store. Apparently, they don't active the card before shipping it to you. When trying to use the card, Microsoft threw an error that the card hasn't been activated by the merchant and to contact the merchant for help. I contacted best buy, but the only solution provided was to drive to the nearest best buy to activate the card. However, all the stores are closed until further notice because of the pandemic.

    Bought this to install on HP computer bought last week. No problems downloading any other software- JUST OFFICE. I had to call Technical Support to find out why there software is the only software I can’t download. They said my network is stopping it and they can fix it for another $99.00. Yeah right! What a gimmick! I’m sure Best Buy knows about this extortion tactic by Microsoft. Taking this Back to Best Buy!!!!!

      Hi there,

      Sorry to hear about the issues installing Office 2019. If you just purchased your copy last week, you shouldn't be getting asked to pay for support as that comes free for the first 60 days that you had it. Did you happen to contact our support teams through here? https://support.office.com/en-us/home/contact?contactUsExperienceEntryPointAssetId=S.HP.Main

      That will ensure that you are reaching our trained support team and they should be help you get the product downloaded and installed to your PC. Hope that helps out!

      Regards,

    Card was not activated

    The card was delivered but the key code was never activated by Best Buy. How embarrassing to buy someone a gift for Christmas that doesn't even work. Now the recipient has to waste time returning the item.

    The order I purchased of Microsoft Home and student would not load on my computer. "Safari says this is not a valid download file" was the response to trying to load it. Any suggestions? It was $150.00.

      Hey there,

      With Office Home & Student 2019, you are able to receive software updates. You'll need to manually install these updates, however. To learn more about Office Home & Student updates, follow this link: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Install-Office-updates-2ab296f3-7f03-43a2-8e50-46de917611c5

      Additionally, you can purchase Outlook as a standalone app from the Microsoft store to add to your existing software.

      We hope that helps!

      Sincerely,
      Jo
