uninstalled video doorbell
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The agents wasn't able to install my video doorbell due to not having the correct transformer to connect to, so I basically gave away money. I wasn't offered another day to have it installed once I could get a new transformer from the local hardware store.

Later found that the install was flawed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Initially it seemed that the install was OK, but the ring continued to miss packages that were dropped off. I then found out from Ring that a wedge should have been used during the install and that I should reinstall it. This is disappointing since I paid for the install from Best Buy and they would charge me again to do a second install.

Installed my ring camera but no chime
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ring camera was perfectly mounted in the place were the older one was but it is blocked by the water meter and the installation guy didn't think of moving it. He also didn't hook it up to the chime. Very lazy work

No installation and no refund!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nobody showed up for the installation. It has been 10 days, and Best Buy has not refunded me. I call every day and they cannot connect me with someone who can issue my refund. will never again buy a service from Best Buy. I had to give 1 star to be able to submit the review but Best Buy deserves no stars.

Very bad experience
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The first appointment was canceled by them, and I was notified very late. The second appointment also came very late, and the technician said they had never seen this type of doorbell before, so I need to reschedule with someone who knows how to install it. The third appointment is scheduled for one month after I bought the product, and I’m still unsure if it will work out.

Coordinating and scheduling for install has been d
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have scheduled do the item to be installed and it still not installed. I scheduled for the date I able to be there and I get an email telling it is different date or to call and reschedule. Finally had a hard date for installation and the installer calls me and I had to tell him I will need to pick my child from school. It took a little longer than planned and the technician said he can’t wait for another 10-15 minutes because he had to leave to kid his kids from school too! Very displeased with scheduling. I wouldn’t recommend them to use the third party to install if they can avoid it. Scott from Cedar Hill Best Buy on the other hand did an amazing job!

Geek Squad messed up
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very disappointed in the initial appointment. I was to be called before the service tech showed up and they did but i missed the call. They did not leave a message so the Ring doorbell wasn't installed. I was supposed to have the follow up appointment on July 3 between the hours of 7am - 5pm. I called on Fridays June 30 and to my surprise the appointment was somehow changed to July 7. This would not work out and i never agreed to this date as i took 7/3 off from work. During the phone call I was transferred over 4x and on the phone for over an hour. So frustrating!

Not Worth It
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ordered the installation service from Best Buy and had it scheduled for last Thursday. The appointment was cancelled at the last minute by the installed citing weather issues. He said it's a policy to cancel appointments during thunderstorms. Fair enough, but cancelling at the last minute was inconsiderate. Regardless, I looked the other way and rescheduled for Friday. He came out with an associate and in a quick flash had the Nest Hello installed. It worked for all of about 10 minutes before going offline. The installer did no checks to ensure the voltage coming to the doorbell was up to par. They also did not install the chime connector saying it's optional. Every review I've checked has said this step should happen otherwise you can damage your Hello. I tried to reach out to the installer and he has been nothing but dismissive or flat out just not answering me. If these are the types of installers that best buy uses, it's worth it just not dealing with them. Going to seek a refund and doubt I'll get it.

What a joke!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used Geek Squad to install my wired doorbell camera and purchased their protection plan. The installer did not use the wall anchors that came with the camera so it moves freely whenever it is touched. Now the darn thing no longer works and I was told to disconnect it and take it to the store for repair!!! If I knew how to connect/disconnect a wired doorbell camera I wouldn’t have paid Geek Squad to install it! That’s ridiculous. They should send a tech to my house to fix it. I will never pay for that service again!

NOT VERY COMPLETE INSTALL
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.INSTALLER CAME WITH WRONG DEVICE, DID NOT CHARGE MY RING DEVICE ENOUGH TO WORK, THEN TOOK OFF WITH THE KEY TOOL TO TAKE COVER OFF SO WE COULD CHARGE THE DOORBELL AFTER HE LEFT. WHEN HE DID DROP OFF NEXT DAY, HE DIDN'T ANNOUNCE HE WAS THER OR FIX THE UNCHARGED DEVICE. JUST LEFT THE KEY ON THE PORCH AND LEFT.

Does Not Work as Advertised
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not sure if i like the product that much. The install service I received was horrible. The guy couldn't get it to work and recommended me having an electrician come out. I did this and had best buy resend someone out and they sent the same guy. He again passed the buck onto the electrician stating he didn't fix the issue.

Posted .Thanks for uploading your review. It's never good to hear of any incomplete installations, as we want you to be able to enjoy your smart home as soon as possible. Our Agents should be able to get you up and running if the existing high-power wiring provides the necessary foundation for their installation to succeed. For support with this, please call us at (800) GEEK-SQUAD or (800) 433-5778.

Wasted my time without care
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So terribly disappointed with this process. The first date this was scheduled there was no communication and no one showed up. We waited eight hours for this install when we called to reschedule we were told it would be another week when I escalated to a manager. They scheduled me for three days later. 3 days later came waited eight hours and no one showed with no communication. I called again escalate it again rescheduled again. This time someone showed up performed the job perfectly. I am happy with the job that was provided disappointed that Best Buy services waste at 16 hours of my life.
