I purchase an item from BestBuy and they ship the item the cheapest way which gives me the hotest game to me almost 1 week after it has released. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE FROM BESTBUY.com again and WILL TELL EVERYONE I KNOW NOT TO PURCHASE FROM THEM since they choose poor options for the customers.

I m so upset and frustrated from the Bestbuy's customer service to a point that I will never ever go to Bestbuy for the rest of my life.I droped my laptop at San Carlos California Besbuy 1st time on June 20th, 2009 to fix it and till now i haven't received it yet. Nobody knows where is my laptop, not the managers and even not consumer services. I purchased the laptop with an extended warantee. Their warantee, services, promisses SUCKKKKKKK big time. It s been about 4 months since I droped my laptop at the store. Don't ever buy anything from BESTBUy, they will screw you guys and they will never keep their word and promiss. Better go to Wallmart, Office depot or anywhere but not Bestbuy.

Bestbuy.com is awful. I ordered a gift card. It took three weeks to get my order. I could of days before the order arrived, I received an e-mail informing me that there was problem with the activation and that the gift card was not activated. I was told that I would have to call to activate it. Poor customer service. They should have just sent another gift card which was activated.

I got a large screen 55LH90 and had it delivered, screen was cracked on delivery, definitely not shopping with them again.

Bought a Bissell rug cleaner with chronic problems at Best Buy Tallahassee, FL. Also bought extended warranty that guaranteed "no lemons" The geek squad is unable to fix the machine (nozzles were cleaned last 2 visits) No help from best buy although the machine has 14 months of warranty left.THis is the 5th repair attempt, Best Buy claims 4th. I was emailed yesterday and was told to pick up the machine but when I made the long drive to pick it up tonight it wasn't there. My last trip to best buy!  
Best buy was once a good store but must be having financial or other problems to treat loyal customers so badly.

I bought a large screen Samsung TV, and signed up for the no payment/no interest program. Confirmed the program with both the salesman,and the credit person. Just got the second statement, and there sits a late charge assessment, and finance charge. Credit department says no such program exists. I hate Best Buy now. Will never shop there again. It may be convenient, but this is terrible business practice.

I wanted to get some information on an IPOD touch unit before I went to Best Buy to actually buy one. I call the local several times and couldn't get anyone to answer the phone. I figured I could call another store if I just needed information at this point. Same experience at 4 other stores. I sent an email through their email customer service system. I got a confirmation that I would hear from them in 3 days. It's been over a week now. WHAT A SAD, PATHETIC, NONCARING COMPANY IS THIS???? And I'm in retail and I can tell you for sure that this COMES FROM THE TOP OF THIS COMPANY. Don't perpetuate bad service. Stay away from the.

After refusing to buy from this company for many years, I gave them another shot. They have lost me as a customer once again.

When my expensive 6 month old Gateway failed I received the most horrible service. They wouldn't believe me, listen to me or write down what was wrong. The computer had to be resubmitted for service three times and was unusable to me for 7 weeks. I wrote a letter to the store manager, to which he did not respond, but when I picked up the computer the Geek squad was not speaking to me. The guy who had helped me before turned away when he saw me and the one who delt with me was nasty, sarcastic at my questions and flat out refused to help me figure out how to upgrade the memory. I will never ever ever buy another computer or anything else from Best Buy ever again.

I purchased a new computor from Best Buy in Warwick R.I. and brought an old one in for service. I paid for optimizing and instalation of anti-virus software. When I got my purchase back home it was apparent that very little was actualy done to "optimize" my computor, and the old one was still suffering the exact same trouble. No help when I called, so I returned to the store. I was told by the "Geek" that if anyting happened when I used the computor the warranty would be voided. Its a 30 day warranty and I had litteraly only had it on for a minute before it locked up again. He immediatly tells me that something I did caused the trouble and I would have to repay (199.99) for the same service. I made the case that it was exactly the problem I had complained about, but was shot down by the manager. I asked to see the store manager and was actualy laughed at by the "geek". Blue shirted manager was equaly useless and rude, so I left. Buyer beware, there is no reliable service to be had at best buy, look over the loopholes in the service agreement, it amounts to voiding your 30 day warranty if you turn on your computor. I have never been treated so badly.

After a day I placed my order, it just sent me a cancellation letter saying it was no long available, I thought Best Buy has real time inventory. I tried to call customer service, waited for 15 mins and no one picked up. I guess that's how Best Buy services their customers.

Purchased a TomTom XL 340S GPS. It did not work after updating the maps online as instructed. Spent 2 hours on phone with TomTom and they could not figure out a solution. I returned it to Best Buy promptly only to be told there was a 15% restocking charge, EVEN though I told them the GPS unit did not work right out of the package. Would NOT shop a Best Buy again. Buyer Beware.

What a fiasco. I purchased the item (vacuum cleaner) online to be picked up at the store. When I get to the store, there is nobody at the dot com station where you need to pick up the order. I ask the guard who then directs me to customer service.  
 
The customer service line is long and I wait over 10 minutes to be helped. The associate at customer service tells me they don't do the online pickup there and directs me back where I started. When I tell him nobody is there, he tries to find someone to help. He finally gets someone who then tells me her computer is down and she has to find a computer where she can take care of the pickup.  
 
At that point I told her to just forget it. I picked up a vacuum off the shelf and paid a cashier. The whole transaction took about 2 minutes. Once I got home, I cancelled the online purchase.  
 
What is the point of allowing you to pick up an online purchase in store if you are not set up to make the pickup quick and painless.

Nice 15 year boy that just started his career at BestBuy was nice enough to recommend their best suction cup mono pod for my ultra compact camera.  
 
It seems that SunPak makes such junk now that after opening the item and using a camera of 1/2 the recommended weight,this suction cup will not work on any surface for more than one minute.

I tried to order a Seagate Replica hard drive from Best Buy at $106.49. This price was found on three separate websites. However, clicking on the Buy Button in PriceWatch.com for this item took me to Best Buys website and a price of 119.99. Three levels of customer service people did nothing to honor the price. This was the same problem experienced by three other people according to reviews on Price Watch.
