Geek Squad installation was terrible.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The installers are not from Geek Squad. They are 3rd party installers who have very little knowledge about Ring products (security and cameras). My experience with the outside contracted (non-Geek squad) has been terrible. The 3rd party people are not ready to accept what the In home consultants have recommended during their visit to my house prior to the install. I had to cancel the installation service and install the security system and the cameras myself with the help of Ring customer service. The "Total tech support" plan is not going to effective until Best Buy has more skilled members from Geek Squad to install the cameras.

Posted .Thanks for taking time out of your day to upload this review. We're not a fan of batteries dying either, so it's understandable that you'd be upset when the batteries died after a couple of weeks. If the installers aren't getting back to you, I recommend calling (800) GEEK-SQUAD or (800) 433-5778 so we can explore our options.

Wasn't the best experience
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The installer that showed up was very nice and professional but wasn't familiar with the product at all. Was told incorrect information and ended up "re-installing" them myself.

Horrible customer service
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Horrible horrible customer service from both Best Buy and 2nd party installer. Neither would communicate about the installation. We we’re told 4-6 different dates that would come and go with them no showing and each blaming it on the other party. Missed multiple days of work waiting for them to show and never did. Ended up having to make a trip back into the store to speak with management to get the install scheduled. Day of install the 2nd party did not have the supplies needed and I had to send my son back into town to purchase supplies then the 2nd party took a left over $50 box of wire with them “mistakenly”.

Geek squad didn’t follow protocol
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Here it is almost a year later and still have not heard from anyone at Best Buy about this install. Their service provider after me telling him to give me a minute to put my dog in a room just walked in my house which led into a very bad dog fight and a large vet bill and me feeling like I don’t want to use this service anymore. Well I haven’t since then and they never even finished the job. I would think these providers are trained not to just walk in someone’s house. And he can’t say he didn’t cause it’s all on camera smh still waiting on a phone call I shouldn’t be responsible for their negligence.

Not recommended
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The installer Mike Scarborough, was nice, but installed my items(outdoor cam with solar panel) sloppy. The wires connecting to each other were just tucked into the the siding half hazardly. Something I might have done if I installed it. That’s why I paid a $100 for supposed professional install. A storm blew through a couple of days later and tore the solar panel base off and to the back off the house. I called to have it re-connected, but none of my calls were returned!! Basically, soon as they got my money, it was see-ya!! I complained to Bestbuy manager Brandon about it and was told that they are contracted out by Bestbuy, but he would contact his boss.

Installation
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was told the installer would go over the system he would be installing that did not happen. Told to just look at the video's. Left me with more questions. Best Buy sent another installer who was very helpful.

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU RECEIVE POOR SERVICE
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was absolutely the worse experience ever. Purchased Total Tech and (3) cameras to be installed. Agent showed up and didnt want to place the cameras where I needed them. He became confrontational and rude and I requested to speak to his manager and him leave my home. This has escalated now into Best Buy cancelling all my warranties on everything else ever purchased. UNBELIEVABLE!!!

Bad outdoor camera equipment!

Installation Scheme
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The tech arrived at my home without the proper equipment to install the cameras. He left my home with the merchandise and said he would return the following day. The tech failed to return and reported that he did not have my merchandise. Ther person at the store I spoke with said a Third-Party Vendor was used and that they could not provide me with any further details.

Worst Service Ever
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Anything that could have gone wrong did on this. I purchased a wireless camera system and a ring doorbell. The advisor sold me the wrong ring doorbell and the installation guys basically told me how horrible the cameras were and that they could install it, but it would not work right. After getting the right ring doorbell, they want to charge me extra to come back out. Are you kidding me? It was the best buy advisor that sold me the items after looking at my house. Ridiculous!

Installation to long - work not lasting
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The guy who came out to install took forever - then in the middle of my project he gets a call and makes up some excuse to leave my project that was already taking to long - comes back over an hour later - installs my last item - 6 months later - the bases are falling off the house, the camera are in arms reach not high enough and there were to be three screws inserted it’s 1 in two or less in the bases - that’s why they are falling off the wall - the guy was polite but...the job was not done correctly

Was 3rd part installation ...not great
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These contractors did not do the job as well as expected. In the future if the Geek Squad is not going to do the installation I will purchase somewhere else. The contractors could not adequately explain the workings of the cameras
