Geek Squad in North Augusta | Best Phone, Laptop, and Computer Repair Services at Affordable Prices | Quick Fixes

Poor Customer service. Wasted two days waiting for geek squad to arrive for scheduled appointment. Had to call and reschedule twice and no one showed up. First time we called they said they don’t know what happened. Not showing that anyone contacted us. Mind you, we have a warranty on our washer. We have a 3 year warranty on washer and refrigerator. It is now 12:05PM again on the scheduled appointment from 8:00-1200PM. Very disappointed and angry. Now waiting on hold for customer representative to answer. Representative finally answered and while i was spelling first name they hung up the phone. This was after waiting for more that 10 minutes on the phone. Not very professional at all. Very dissatisfied with support. I would rather have someone come and pick up the item.

Allison (Tech support) finally answered and dealt with the call professionally. Thank you Allison. Great customer service on your part. Technician is still a no call no show. If you are in the Augusta Best Buy location and are a manager, please talk to your technician about the importance of communicating with clients. Cost of everything is going up so being stuck at home two days wasting 8hrs not earning money is costly. Perhaps even worth more than the warranty and washer that we paid for. Thank you again to Allison(Customer Care Representative) that finally made some good sense and was willing to work a solution that is at least half satisfactory to a frustrated(understated) customer.

Update: The solution was to wait another 1.5 hrs to give technician a chance just in case the technician took longer at another location. I was told if tech does not show up in this time, to call back and they will escalate to geek squad manager for a call back. Well it has been 1 hr and 45min. I called back, and because the wait time i opted for call back. still waiting…now playing phone tag. another day wasted.

Update: it is now: 3:16 pm, I just started combing through my emails and came across a third party technician company that deals with geek squad. This was after hanging up on a representative that was repeating the same scripted response and getting nowhere. The representative from the third party company explained why the scheduling did not go as planned. First the stated time that the Best Buy quotes is misleading. Because the technicians from the third party have to call the client first to make the proper schedule in accordance to parts and services needed etc. Anyhow, the third party company were trying to contact us but was using an old number, mind you , we have already called customer service and and emphasize that the old number does not work and i gave them a new one(several times). I know my complaint is long. But this is not the first time I dealt with this same issue.
STOP QUOTING A SCHEDULE TO PEOPLE THAT YOU HAVE NO HAND OR INTENTION IN KEEPING!!!
There should be a standard as well with customer service. Just sounding nice on the phone is not customer service. The representative from the third party although sounded nervous, she still handled the call with the intention on finding an actual solution for me. Clarification goes a long way.

Best Buy needs to fix this issue concerning scheduling!

I could have gotten a brand new washer with the man hours I wasted waiting for them.

I hope this helps someone in the future.

Geek Squad has no concern that the agent who came out to my house to work on this TV just dropped the whole thing and left me in the dark so the company could close the repair because they don’t want to fix/replace my TV. After the second repair attempt, Agent Trey stated that they would have to escalate this to replacement. I received one call from him after stating he hadn’t heard back yet after about two weeks. Then I called to again be told no update but he was going to look into it. Then I could never get a hold of the agent again. After over a month of trying, I called Geek Squad directly to be told I had been called about this. I had not. I check my phone regularly. I stated that I needed to be called about my repair and to state who the call is from or leave a message so I can call back. Never got a call. Now the company has completed the repair when my TV is worse than when the repair began. As of now, I am reaching out to every review site and looking into contacting news crews until this is resolved. This is not how you treat paying customers.

I took my Apple Watch to get a screen replacement and since I had Apple care they said they would send a new one and it would ship overnight and be there for pickup in 1-2 days so I called 3 different times and the automated system said my item wasn’t ready so I spoke with a tec on the 4th day and a hour of wait time they said my item was there for pickup so I get there and had to wait again for at least a hour just to find out my item wasn’t actually there. This is the second time I’ve had this SAME issue. Highly disappointed with the service, Geek squad needs to get their act together.
