    The installation once the rep was there the second time was better but getting the proper support or the refund due to the situation has been horrific at best. The initial rep that sold the equipment stopped communicating and effectively ghosted the situation. I would go directly thru ring/amazon versus ever buying this product from them ever again

    Defective

    The geek installer had me signed a form which he said Is just an authorization to install the doorbell. Stupid me trusted him and signed without reading only to later found out I signed a work completion. They were not able to install the doorbell because they claimed it was defected. I returned two so-called defected units. I got the 3rd replacement unit and called them as they instructed me to do. They never came back like they promised to go but I was charged for the service. I had to pay Hellotech to install what I had already paid the geeks to do.

    It has been more than 20 days that i applied for refund and there's no update on that as yet. First, you send a technicial for doorbell when my request is for a home alarm system. then you send a home alarm system guy who says he cannot install. Net I spend $300 and when i apply for a refund, I am put on hold for 45+ mins and i keep getting the same message that "we are waiting for refund" Pathetic service to say the least. Never calling you guys again.

    The tech was unable to install so wasted money on a service call that didn’t accomplish anything. The previous call to have a tv mounted on the bedroom wall went well.

    I didn't mean to live a negative review, it was all my fault, I had a ring security system rather than a door bell ring so it could not be installed because it's not what I needed or wanted. Totally my fault.

    Attempted to speak with someone about picking up my order and was on hold for 44 minutes only to be disconnected. I contacted the corporate number and was finally helped. Very poor customer service from this location.

    Horrible third party installation

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Installer created a short in the wires in the wall leading to a fire hazard. Installer also drove a mounting screw so deep into the Ring doorbell that he cracked the housing of the doorbell, and the screw is now lodged in the doorbell. I’ve had to bring in a professional electrician to fix the damage that was done along with returning the doorbell to Amazon.

    The guy that installed it had no idea what he was doing. Because of him we had to have another electrician come out and had to spend another $700.00 to have it done correctly.

    Very inefficient and time consuming service required three geek squad visits and one store visit to return the item and pay $30 fee as well as another geek squad fee to install the replacement item that had to be ordered as it was not in stock at the store

    Installation gone bad

    I bought a Ring camera and paid Best Buy to install it. The installer couldn’t install it and instead, damaged the bell that I had which was working before he came. Now I have no working doorbell. I called customer service. They did refund my installation charges but I also requested consideration for my damaged doorbell. I was told that Best Buy would contact me in 24 hrs. It’s been 72 hours and I haven’t heard from anyone.

    Horrible Customer Service

    I ordered this service and it took them a month and a half to actually come to my home and install. I need a refund for this. I spoke to customer service and Best Buy and everyone said that setting up my network properly was beyond their authority. I even went to the store and spoke to the manager and the local manager in Sugarland was trying to sell me equipment that would purposely not work. The store manager for the Greek Squad was rude and abusive and I had to wait 2 weeks for the reinstallation of my gateway network to function properly.

    The installers were third party. Nice but not skilled. They installed the doorbell at an angle that doesn’t pick up visitors. Ridiculous.

    A tech came to my house to install my smart doorbell, told me I'd need another part, gave me his number and told me to call him to schedule the appointment for the next week and he'd come back. He left and my smart doorbell did not work. I called him several times, he never returned my calls. I contacted Best Buy to try and resolve this matter and have now been on hold for about an hour. This always happens when I deal with Best Buy. Endless passing the buck and absurdly long hold times. They took $108 from me and did not do the work. Extremely unhappy. I want my money back.

      We’d certainly want to make sure any services our Geek Squad Agents performed in your home were performed correctly, so it’s disappointing to hear there seem to be some issues with your smart doorbell. It sounds like you’ll be contacting our Geek Squad at 1-800-GEEKSQUAD (1-800-433-5778), and we’re optimistic your doorbell will be functioning again soon.

    The technician was great, he originally installed the doorbell and fixed the problem in less than five minutes. This is what created my issue with Best Buy for being charged $130 for him clicking a button on my cellphone to fix the problem and they refused to compensate since now they charge Total members for home visits.
