    I bought two Nest learning thermostat and got in the geek squad for installation. They were not able to instal it and did not even provide any alternatives on how it can work. I read on multiple forums that only experts can instal but did not get that expertise in my case.

    Installed thermostats, did not work as expected. 3rd party installer decided to stop rather than troubleshoot. Like shopping at Best Buy but wouldn’t use them again for any installation beyond TV mounting.

    Will never hire Geek squad again! They hired a third party company to install my ecobee. 2 men came to my house pulled my existing thermostat off blew a fuse for my furnace hooked my original thermostat back up incorrectly. Then they proceeded to tell me that the ecobee could not work w my furnace. I then had to hire another hvac to install it, only to find out that if my ac would have kicked on it would have fried it due to the way they set it back up. When we called to complain how it was never installed Best Buy would not refund my money even though they are the company I paid to install the thermostat. When I asked for a supervisor they just transferred me to the other company Installs inc. I then found out that my name and initials were forged on the paperwork stating they installed the ecobee and how happy I was with their job. Could not be more furious with how I was treated and the fraudulent matters that occurred. I have never been so displeased with a service like I am now.

    The technicians who came to install my thermostat did it incorrectly. The temperature of the house went up to over 90 and we have 2 kids 1 has autism’s. My wife spent 5 HOURS on HOLD until she got hold of someone. Two more technicians came the day after and after 30 minutes advised us to get a air conditioning specialist to fit it and send the bill to Best Buy ( we paid Best Buy over $100 to install ). We are still waiting for this bill to be paid, it’s been a few weeks and nobody from Best Buy has been in touch. Myself I think telling you this will make no difference, no compensation offered! I am waiting to talk to someone from the press and tell all my friends NOT to shop at Best Buy One totally annoyed former customer

      Thanks for taking the time to upload a review. A smart thermostat is an exciting purchase, and we're honored that you came to us for the installation. However, the experience you have described is not at all what we intended, so it hurts to hear that we dropped the ball with this service. We're also not fans of our homes being at over 90 degrees, so it's understandable that your family isn't either, and would want that corrected as soon as possible. This is something we should have touched base with you on , so we apologize that this situation occurred, as well as that no one has been in touch with a solution. If you haven't already, please call (800) 304-1259 to work with our Geek Squad Client Care Team, so a case manager can be assigned and assist you throughout this process. If you already have a case manager, it's recommended that you reach out to them directly for a resolution.
