I ordered a TV & stand to be Delivered together for my mother’s birthday. They called me the same day as the delivery. To tell me that they couldn’t deliver the stand that day but could deliver the tv. This was very unprofessional coming from a big company like (Bestbuy). In this case. They should have contact me before the delivery date to confirm any issues. Or let me know when I was making the purchase. That (Bestbuy) isn’t capable of delivery both items together on the same date. I canceled my order. I thought (Bestbuy) was better than this. A more (Sophisticated) company will take over there spot very soon.

Wow, I thought I knew the worst. Nope. Best buy broke a new record for the worst buying online experience out there. I placed my order on November 27, still NO update for delivery. Spoke with more than 10 different agents without success. They know nothing about handling costumers. To speak with a supervisor it's impossible or getting help via chat is basically a joke, or sending a complaint thru email also nonexistent. They conned numerous people into buying products on sale online without any guarantee you'll ever get the product or your money. No confirmation emails, no updates via best buy account, not a single reassurance the costumer's best interests and costumer's peace of mind. It's like giving your money for free. I learned my lesson-No more business with best buy.

If you don't know exactly what your going into the store for AND where it is located plan on spending a lot of time looking for it because you won't be able to get any employees to help you. EVEN WORSE when you call to get info. Plan on waiting 30 plus minutes to get them to answer the phone. Tried four times on different days at different time and its always the same. When I finally did get someone to answer the connection is so bad on their end you can't understand them. TOTAL WASTE OF TIME!

Visited Best Buy East colonial Dr. 12/04/20 checkout receipt time 1736 I wish I could’ve give less than 1 star. This store is unorganized. The store have 1 pick up and 1check out line. I went check out line to pay my item just to find out by the Cashier that the line was suppose to be closed due to short of staff. I was ask to go back in line which Is so embarrassing, humiliating, and very insulating. I inform the staff that signs and everything need to be adjusted so people are aware.

Best Buy advertises that they will take items to be recycled such as tvs, microwave ovens, etc. When I brought my microwave to the Best Buy in Parker, CO, I was told by the "door man" that they didn't take recyclables. When I called him out for false advertising, he back paddled and said, best buy would send a truck to my house for a $100 to pick up the microwave. So, don't believe their ads. They don't take recycled items. And to make matters worse, they want to rip people off by charging $100 to pick those items up. Home Depot doesn't even charge that much for a delivery. Don't shop at Best Buy. They are dishonest and want to rip you off!

Originally placed order on November 2nd, 2020 at Reston, Virginia Best Buy store and paid for the equipment. They were supposed to deliver on November November 18th, 2020 (Wednesday) so I took day off from work. They never delivered and told me that the equipment was sent to someone else and I should talk to the store manager in Tyson to check. NOVEMBER 18th, 2020 NO SHOW NO DELIVERY NO COMMUNICATION I kept calling the store, but no one ever connected me with the manager. Finally, the Geek Squad and delivery people stated they will deliver now on November 23rd, 2020. No call no show again and I took day off from work. Happen to be those were my days in a week to go to office. No show no call. NOVEMBER 23rd, 2020 NO SHOW NO DELIVERY NO COMMUNICATION TILL END OF THE DAY Finally frustrated I called and after being on phone for two hours the person said we should cancel the order and place another order and they can deliver now on December 3rd, 2020. December 3rd, 2020 NO SHOW NO DELIVERY NO COMMUNICATION TILL END OF THE DAY Well exactly after 1 hour 58 minutes they said I have a new order number now and I be getting delivery on Dec 3rd. Waited all day till 9 PM no show no call. Next day early morning I picked a message from Geek Squad from my voicemail which was left on December 3rd, 2020 at 3:30 PM about delivery is not being made again. Waited three full days various times and no delivery. Horrible communication and system in place. Now on 12/4/2020 headed to store. Need the money back and explanation for such a poor service and communication. Let’s see. Will write to corporate office with all details. TOTALLY FRUSTRATED AND I AM GOING TO BOYCOT BESTBUY HERE AFTER AND CLOSE MY CREDIT CARD ACCOUNT AS WELL TODAY.

DO NOT BUY A WARRANTY. They will tell you it's a replacement warranty, but it is not. They take your product away for weeks and no loaner. So disappointed they lied just to sell me a warranty. I most likely would have purchased it, but at least I would have been prepared if they had told the truth. They will say anything to sell the warranty. I have always loved Best Buy and have purchased thousands in warranties over the years, The one time I go to use the warranty and find out that I will have to be without my product for many weeks. I was told if anything happened to bring my product in and I would get store credit or it would be replaced. It is NOT the truth.

Wow, actually, I can't complain about the customer service, because there isn't any. Word of the wise : buy in a local store, even if it's for a slightly higher price... I am on hold with an agent in the Philippines (!!!) just to get an order returned. So far, 3 transfers and 29 minutes on hold. Tried the chat window, even worst. I think the strategy is to have you wait until you give up.

I attempted to order an item & was unable to place the order. I was then asked to call a number which kept me on hold for an hour to only have the Best Buy Rep. tell me the item is out of stock now. There is nothing they can do and have no intention of looking into website bugs as I was not even able to place the order when the item was in stock. The rep did not understand and kept replying that she was sorry and could not do anything because the item was not out of stock. Thanks but no thanks. Going to take my business off BestBuy due to customer service and poor website bug management.

As many have already stated, Best Buy will "sell" the price match, but not honor it. I went to Best Buy to window shop laptops before the Black Friday sales and found one I liked. Asked the associate what the price would be during the sale and she told me. Then proceeded to convince me to buy the laptop now and come back for the price match in a week - which I did. When I arrived, they told me no price matching and to come back in a few days. I did, and the laptop was no longer on sale, again meaning no price match. Nice scam you have going there Best Buy - I hope your short term sales numbers are impressive, because you've lost a lot of business from the customers you've scammed, likely forever.

they simply wont honor price match. Their own web site had a sale and customer service said go to web . When I go to web they say call.. They are a scam .. they will come out in their blue outfits and push extended warrantees which are also useless. Amazon will put them out of business

If I could give a 0 I would have. I returned an item on 9th of November. Been calling the customer service number for the status on my returned. Called multiple times and every agent provided me with different information( that none of the info and time standards are not the same of the web page, email, receipt and the information provided by the cashier in the store). I have been lied and call disconnected by customer service agent. Last info provided was today saying that best buy couldn't process my return and a check was made almost a month late and can take 10 more business day. And we are in holidays. When I called I requested call back from supervisor (who never called) without counting that was told that can take about 5 hrs or more to call back. Today i was told that supervisor can call for complaints only for resolution. This company is not cheap to buy and the reason why I purchased here is because I couldn't wait for the other store to have the item on stuck. The next time I need something and is not available I will wait. NEVER AGAIN.

Bought a dishwasher and microwave from Best Buy. Both were defective (actually they replaced the first defective Samsung microwave with a second defective microwave). I cancelled both appliances. I received refunds for the appliances after several inquiries, but am still trying to arrange refunds for the install and warranty costs (approx $500). Customer service is AWFUL! I’ve spent hours on the phone - talked to at least 8 services reps, with 3 different case numbers. A few promised to call me back, but never did. Others just disconnect or send you to a different department. Service reps aren’t authorized to do refunds, and it’s impossible to talk to a supervisor who is authorized. I will never buy anything from Best Buy ever again.

Assholes, assholes, assholes - best way to describe Best Buy! Why the store chooses to screw with people's heads is a mystery! Buying Xbox X series online, getting it into checkout and then not being able to get it shipped to ANY STORE, ANYWHERE, WITHIN ANY RADIUS BUT IT CANNOT BE SHIPPED TO THE PURCHASERS RESIDENCE!! What a scam!!!

If I ran my business like Best Buy, I would be applying for unemployment. Customer Service is basically non-existent. After 40 minutes on hold they either have an attitude or just hang up on you. Can you imagine treating customers like this...? The Union, New Jersey store is the worst. They have virtually no interest in helping the customer or even being apologetic. They don't even want to look up your order. Forget the in-store pick-up option. They advertise 45 minutes, but I have sometimes waited more than 24 hours to pick up my order (i.e., the next day). They must either have poor or no management skills, and workers with minimal training. My daughter's Girl Scout Troop is more organized than Best Buy! Save yourself a lot of frustration, and shop somewhere else.

They have the worst online sale for Thanksgiving as they keep cancelling your order even if the item is available for pick up the next day at the store and when you contact them all that they say is the item is no longer available and it has been happening for past 2 years.

La tienda de Kendall Drive es una de las peores de USA, es una cochiquera y si usted padece de alguna enfermedad respiratoria ni se acerque a ese store, el POLVO esta sobre todos los estantes y cajas de equipos, la atencion al cliente es comparable con las TRD de Cuba y cuidado peor.
