    My window for installation was between 4:00-8:00pm. My service agent arrived at 8:oopm. It was already getting dark in my area for exterior cameras to be installed. The agent was not helpful at all, and wasn't knowledgeable about the product. He stated that Geek squad hasn't been installing these cameras that long. I personally would not recommend Geek squad for this installation

    Was not happy with the demeanor and behavior of this outsourced tech. He was a heavy smoker and my whole house smelled like that hours after he left. He also made comments about guns, and just gave off a very uncomfortable feeling.

    Very nice picture…everything about this camera was great EXCEPT for the fact that it only has the flimsy magnetic charger! No other way to charge the cameras so I had to return them.

    Very poor service. Best buy outsources all their work. The technician came and blew my transformer and left me in limbo. I am following with best buy for a month now with no help. Worst possible service.

    I made 2 apointments to install my wired floodlights and neither technician was able to install. The last tech stated that they would talk to their supervisor to send another guy out. That was almost 2 months ago and still havent had floodlights installed.

    The communication was HORRIBLE! I would never recommend Best Buy to install anything! After several failed rescheduling attempts I was never able to have it installed. I waited for two days in vain after they had assured me that they could do better! WRONG. No call, No show!

    I lost all respect for Bestbuy, Geek squad and third party vendors they are associated with. I'm not getting into my experience with them but I'll let you know the service of instillation, scheduling follow up service, and just answering the phone is all a game to those Geeks. I just sat customer beware.

    yes the installer seemed ok but i received no comprehensive information, only 5 of the 6 inside work at a time, the outside keep going on and off and the inside don't record. And I asked for a return visit from the in home consultant and no communication in a week. A really old man I take care of lives there. This is unacceptable

      Hello, Carrot! Thanks for providing feedback on your recent wireless camera installation experience, although we hate to hear you're having issues with the devices following your service appointment. In addition, lack of communication for a followup can also be frustrating, and we apologize for this overall experience so far. We want to ensure your cameras are working properly, and we encourage you to chat with one of our Agents online (https://www.bestbuy.com/services/remotesupport) or call (800) 433-5778 for further assistance.

    Guy never showed up. Kept on making excuses about coming for installation of camera and connecting with the hub. Got Amazon and they came the same day and it took one half-hour for everything.

    I never received the smart camera but was still charged for the set-up. I brought it to the attention of my Geek Squad rep and he directed me to call the 888 BestBuy hotline because that wasn't in his control. Choppy service from Geek Squad.
