Could the geek squad fix this dash cam memory error?

So I got Best Buy to install the Rexing - V1P Plus and its working great for a few months. ​ I had to take the memory card out though, cause I wanted to make sure it was working, so I turned the car (2021 Toyota Camry) off, and take it out, but I drop the damn thing and cannot find it anywhere, no matter how hard I look. ​ Fuck. ​ So I buy a new memory card and its working good...for about 2 weeks and when I turn the car on, the screen goes blue and says "Memory Error" and does not record. ​ So I follow the steps to fix it and it works...for another 2 weeks before I get the same damn message. ​ So I try another new memory card, the one that Rexing recommends, but I still keep getting the message after 2 weeks. ​ I reached out to the Rexing company and their recommendation is to just get a new one at this point. ​ So new one or could the geek squad somehow take a crack at it? submitted by /u/OverlordPoodle [link] [comments]

S22 Ultra Unlocked In-Store Activation Promo

So the S22 Ultra Unlocked is $899.99 for the 128gb Model or $999.99 model with activation on any carrier. I went to take advantage of this deal today, along with trading in an iPhone 12 Pro for $900. Making the base upgrade Free or the 256gb model $100.00. The only account I have is an old Unlimited Elite line with Signature Rewards. I was going to just add a line for the discount and then cancel the line in a week when the phone comes in ( they have to order it ). They said if I do this, ATT will hit me with the $300 discount on my next bill. Is this true? Anyway around this? The trade-in and activation price are in-store only and applied instantly, no bill credits would be going onto my bill. So I just wanted to touch base with some Best Buy Mobile people to see if they gave me the correct info. I was reading a slickdeals thread and lots of others are saying they did the same thing I wanted to do. Are they gonna get a charge back for the $300 on their bill? Thanks in advance. ...

How to Return/Exchange Laptop That's Been Owned for Over 15 Days

Is it still possible to receive some sort of refund/exchange/store credit on my laptop? It's past the fifteen days but I'm still wondering if there's any other way I can switch this out. I don't like my HP Envy 360 mainly bc the touchscreen is annoying to write on and it doesn't respond well to my pen. My friend really loves her Samsung Book Pro and can do her PSETs easily, but I can't just drop another 1000 on a different device. So yeah, any advice? submitted by /u/Embarrassed-Benefit6 [link] [comments]

Do yourself a favor and order products somewhere else. (Read desp)

Okay, so I ordered a ideapad gaming 3i from bestbuy on the 23rd of august. and on the 25th of august I left town for a few days (be aware that my girlfriend stays with me so I wouldn’t of missed the package) on the 29th my package says it’s been delivered I call my gf to tell her to pickup my package from the front porch so someone doesn’t take it, she opens the door and there’s nothing there, she calls me and tells me there’s nothing on porch so I tell her to wait a day or 2, 3 days passed no package arrived what so ever, I had a very urgent business meeting I needed to attend to for 2 weeks, I came back home on 16th of September and on the 17th I called bestbuy explaining my situation and they tell me they’ll request a refund for me and I’ll have to wait 10 days for it to be reviewed, well 10 days later and I get an email saying my refund has been denied and to contact local authorities, now please tell me how is the police gonna find a laptop?

Switching Jobs?

Thinking about switching from an advisor to a Geek Squad agent. I'm just getting tired of the constant coachings and pressure to sell memberships. Would Geek Squad be better if i wanted a little less interaction with people? And would it be a little more chill in terms of selling memberships? And what would I do as an Agent submitted by /u/Either_Double_5832 [link] [comments]

Never buying a phone with Best Buy through EIP

So I bought a pixel 6a for $10/month on EIP (T-Mobile) on Best Buy website. I never opened it and then changed my mind so the order number says returnable until the 30th so today is the 29th and the reps say yesterday was the last day. Their system won't let them return it. He called TMobile and they're trying to figure this out. Called someone from Best Buy support. Manager said she would wave the activation fee if they need to activate it to show on TMobile end. We shall see what happens. I'm very glad this rep is trying every possible option. Very nice and professional submitted by /u/Spencer5520 [link] [comments]

Total Tech Apple Care

What devices would the apple care apply to? Is there anything I would have to do to register AppleCare with total tech? I just ordered the iPhone 14 pro and haven’t added applecare yet.

Still waiting on refund from DirectEasyBuy

I bought a laptop and found it was too slow for what I needed, so I returned it. It's arrived, they sent me a message saying they received it, and that I would receive a refund within 3 business days. It's been 7 days now and still no refund. Anyone else have an issue like this? They said they got it, so I don't understand what the issue is. submitted by /u/jako992 [link] [comments]

Credit card fraud

So it appears that someone purchased a $500 Best Buy gift card with my credit card. Not sure how, but is there any way that customer support could provide me with the information of the individual who redeemed the gift card? If they purchased something online, would I be able to retrieve the shipping address the item was sent to? I would really like to do everything possible in order to identify and charge the scumbag who stole my card. Since the gift card was charged to my credit card, do I not have the right to find out who did this? submitted by /u/noclockoutlunch [link] [comments]

Done with BBY

Addressing the “Fire Corrie” Crowd

Before I say what I’m going to say let me set some precedent. I left Best Buy recently (7 years). I do not like Corrie Barry. I think Best Buy is being poorly run. Having said that, this rage and frustration being directed at Corrie is not entirely in her control. CEO’s are puppets installed by the board of directors to enact their will and make the shareholders money. Corrie/ exec team do not get to make large scale financial decisions without the board’s approval. Corrie wants to spend more on labor? Board decision. Board wants to buyback stocks instead of spending on labor? Not Corrie’s decision. I think she has made many poor choices with company organization, chain of command etc. , but the current lack of labor, raises and training spending is a direct reflection of the board strangling profit margins from the top down. If you fire Corrie they will out another “Yes man/woman” right in her place. I’m open to conversation. submitted by /u/BigRedMachine1914 [link] [com...

Is Best Buy not able to just return/exchange iPhones?

Hello! Just wondering if my Best Buy was giving me the right information or not so wanted to ask here to see. I purchased the iPhone 14 Pro from Best Buy and it’s battery life is less than stellar despite everything I have tried. I have talked with Apple in regards to this and their suggestion is that since this is within the first 14 days, I should just get it replaced. When I went to my local Best Buy, they told me their only option was to send it it off to Apple, thus leaving me without a phone until a replacement arrives. They said they can’t do a straight up exchange despite it being defective and it being within my return period. I know different vendors can have different ways of doing things and Apple can be difficult to work with as a third party but this seems a bit extreme for the customer to be left with no option to be without a phone if it’s defective and for the store to refuse to take it back or exchange it out within the return period, especially the first two weeks...

Brief Corrie Rant

The pandemic , now followed by a recession , is tough for any business model . There is not always easy decisions at the top of the corporate ladder. But no world event excuses greed . Through history CEOs, along with the other C suite executives, have gradually increased their pay ratio relative to the median employee pay . In the 60s it was 20 to 1, in the 90s it was 60 to 1. Corrie’s total compensation for 2021 ( you know, the year with all those cuts) was $15.6 million , while the median employee pay is $30,000, a 521 to 1 ratio . Recent study shows the top 300 US company CEOs make a 670 to 1 ratio ! You can’t cut people and make millions and pretend to care. her and the other top 4 paid execs made over $36 million in 2021 , and that’s not even all of them .I mean really they make multi millions every year can they just one time take one goddamn year off of making a killing and just make a living to not have to cut thousands of jobs.

PTO Refresh Date Problem

Haven’t seen this posted yet but….With the transition to work day we noticed something a tad FUBAR regarding PTO refresh. Essentially if you were part time and transitioned to a full time role. Your refresh date is no longer your full time anniversary date but your hire date. Issue with this comes from the fact that if your hire date has passed you missed the refresh. For instance I now have to wait 14 months until I get my PTO rather than the 2 months from my FT anniversary. Another issue, an associate has over 80 hours left and has to use them by their refresh date which is next week… Life’s good.. submitted by /u/GoCustom [link] [comments]

Ah customers…*sigh*

Sooooo today I had someone get upset with me because I didn’t feel comfortable doing a no receipt return. To preface this, my management had it DRILLED into my head we don’t do no receipt returns. I had a lady come in to try to return sealed items at my store and she was upset I couldn’t return them. She had a brown paper Best Buy bag (which we don’t have at our store) and she told me it was given to her as a gift and her friend who got it for her had purchased it within the past 2 weeks and it was under their Best Buy account. I looked through the account and found no receipt. I decided to look in back office EJ and check. Checked the SKUs for the past 2 weeks, nothing. Checked for the past month, still no receipt. Not a one. So I turned to her and politely said I didn’t feel comfortable returning the item without a receipt. She then proceeded to ask for a salaried manager instead of me, (none of them were scheduled today) so I told her I was the only other manager here besides the ...

Store GM Seems to Hate Geek Squad

Idk if it’s just me, but gleefully flooding our counter, bashing us on the radio, rejecting lunches, and not even knowing who our Apple Master is, it is embarrassing just to be in that work place. Customers are asking us what the hell is going on, and don’t even get me started on the hilarious walk-ins being sent to our counter. I’m assuming this is common at a lot of stores though. I feel honestly feel bad for GSMs he keeps rotating through on a yearly basis, because they’re gonna end up managing the sales floor all day anyways. submitted by /u/FreeBrick3950 [link] [comments]

Does anyone else hate the earpieces we have to wear?

At my store the manager is real stickler about everyone being on walkie at all times, and having our earpieces in at all time. If he sees someone who doesn't have it in, they get chewed out. I hate wearing the earpieces, nobody really uses the walkies so it's pointless and the earpieces is one of those earbud ones that wrap around your ear and you have to jam in so it stays in. submitted by /u/anon_burner272 [link] [comments]

What was your favorite or most memorable customer interaction?

I want to hear about your favorite or most memorable interactions, good and bad. Recently I had one takes the cake for me... A few weeks ago I had a gentleman return his phone because, "the selfie camera is making my face look droopy". I don't want to go into full detail but this was very clearly a middle aged man who believes himself to be one of the most conventially attractive people on the planet (sunglasses inside, enough cologne to kill a newborn, half buttoned abercrombie shirt with nothing underneath). I will never be able to replicate the feeling I had when I looked up from his most recent mirror selfie and saw the same exact face that he claimed to be droopy was standing directly in front of me. Not only was I gifted the scenario where I got to see this awful individual's self-esteem drop faster than a drop of rain but a customer who was waiting for help was listening in and decided to give her two cents on the situation. I will not quote her exactly but s...

Samsung.com order + BBY pickup protection plan...

So I just ordered a monitor off samsung.com and choose to have it shipped to best buy for pickup. The reason I did this was to purchase a geek squad protection plan at the store. I had chatted in to best buy support and a rep said that I would be able to purchase a plan no problem. This was about a week before the purchase. It's a large purchase so after I checked out online today I just decided to ask again. I work in customer service also and I know sometimes people make stuff up to get you a quick answer. When I checked again the rep had no clue and basically said I just need to try when I get there. Does anyone have a good answer on this? In case I need to get third party coverage.This is an item I feel like I really need to buy a plan for so would like to do it before any windows expire.

BestBuy.com website no longer has prices for any product! They disappear after a split second! WTF?

I thought it was just an extension or the stylesheets in my Firefox ESR on a MacBook that made the prices disappear since a few days ago… But I've just checked with Chrome on an incognito Chromebook — which I've purchased at BestBuy a few weeks ago — and, it, too, doesn't show any prices! They do appear for about a split second, and then the whole area is removed, and only the "Add to Cart" button remains where the price used to be shown a second prior! My Chromebook and MacOS aren't even on the same network upstream here, so it must be a widespread website issue which breaks the display of the prices in specific circumstances! (Which circumstances? Who knows!) I'm honestly surprised how an online retailer the size of BestBuy can have such a subpar website that (intentionally) doesn't work in half the browsers in half the scenarios half the time. Don't they have any metrics? Have you ever been asked to clear cookies by Amazon, Google or Apple?...

Best Buy is going downhill fast

Hi, so I have the comprehensive dental plan and I need 2 fillings redone.

Not seeing the 15% back on rewards page

New cardmember here, never had their credit card before. Applied BBCC on 8/26/22 after seeing the 15% back in Rewards promotion on BB website. Read the fine print where it stated "If you apply and are approved for a new My Best Buy® Credit Card, your first day of purchases on the Credit Card using Standard Credit within the first 14 days of account opening will get an additional 5 bonus points (an additional 10% back in rewards, for a total of 15%). Ordered the 13inch macbook pro m1 for 949.99 on 9/5/22 (ship to store due to none available near me), picked it up on Sat 9/10. I've been checking the rewards page since 9/11, nothing for a week, no activities shown, then this morning Tue 9/20 around 2:30am an email came from bestbuy and said $45 reward certificate has arrived. I am wondering what happened to the "additional 10% back in rewards, for a total of 15%". Where is the rest of rewards certificate? Where did that $90 ($45 + $45) aka additional 10% back in reward...

The calls do not go to the stores and customers get mad and I'm tired of it. Also, we are looking at the same cb as you, so if you tell them to call to see if something is in stock WE WILL BE LOOKING AT THE SAME IMFORMATION. If you want them to talk to you, give the store's email address. I am beyond done with this nonsense!!! submitted by /u/reddietrashh [link] [comments]

I'm a vendor in a best buy and I'm being treated like crap

So I'm a vendor in a best buy and the management keeps trying to force me to work as a blueshirt. I do not mind helping here and there but I can get in big trouble if I were to be caught selling competitors products. I've talked the the GM and everything; nothings been resolved. In fact the exact opposite. They get mad if I have to do a work call or it I step off the floor to go to the bathroom or take a little break. All the other vendors are having the same issues as I am. And they abuse their blueshirts as well. We're always shortstaffed on the weekends because they expect us vendors to pull the slack(this was told to me by the GM themselves). But none of us have POS logins so we can't even ring people out. I'm at a lose at this point. Is there anything I can do to fix this? I'm heavily considering transferring stores from the constant abuse that I have been through. submitted by /u/Savyke [link] [comments]

Best Buy gets away with some questionable propaganda.

Former 5 year employee. Left September 2020. Worked in every sales/management position outside of GM. I will start off by saying I started at Best Buy right out of a two year college diploma. To say the least I was young and still unsure what I wanted to do for a living. Looking back I might even say I was naive. I will not totally bash Best Buy. I learned valuable skills there that shaped me into who I am today in my new career. The first 3 years of my employment were actually pretty incredible. I truly loved my job. I loved my friends there. One month we won a Canadian national banner (glory days, RIP banners). But again looking back I think they were incredible because I bought into the Best Buy dream that GM’s and DM’s preach from day 1. And that is how quickly your salary increases as you get promoted. They hype it up so much. You have a 30 year old who maybe never did post secondary making 100k+ a year as GM. That excites young people who are unsure of their goals and have no...

With the way things have been going lately I've been wanting to see what everyone thinks.

Should I Go To Best Buy or Keep Talking To Their Customer Support Over Phone?

I ordered something that wasn't delivered. The shopper marked it as delivered but didn't deliver it. I have been calling Best Buy phone number but get told a different story every time. From getting a refund to replacing my order. If I go to the store can I get it sorted out or do I get dealing with phone customer support? submitted by /u/Nouvraught [link] [comments]

apple care needed?

my phone's battery port has become loose and me being new to iPhones I didn't know there was something called AppleCare and didn't get it. soo my question is can BestBuy fix my loose charging port because every time I insert a charger inside the port it doesn't charge it or it falls off and I have to insert the cable in weird positions in order to charge it. submitted by /u/Captain_creed [link] [comments]

Quick question on a refund.

As the title states, I have a really quick question about a refund. I just bought an iPhone 14 Pro case in-store early today and threw away the packaging in the store due to me putting the case on after trading in my old phone. I was wondering since the case was not what I thought it was (it has holes under the power and volume buttons that I didn't notice at first. There are also holes on the bottom corners of the phone where you can see the phone itself.), is it possible to get a refund for the case even though I do not have the box at all? submitted by /u/ViperSting14 [link] [comments]

How soon should I get an update on my next interview? how was your experience?

So long story short, I applied for part time Retail Warehouse Associate, and got a call a few days later and did the first interview yesterday. Manager was super cool, and I THINK he liked me and the interview. I told them everything I know about bestbuy and why i wanna work, saying I can work any time and wanna work towards full time/more hours along with helping other departments. He said he was gonna forward it to the GM (im assuming store manager) and I should get another call within 2/3 days. I know this is only the next day but how soon did any of you get your second interview? Is the next interview the one where you know you'll be hired or not? Any tips or advice/experience would be appreciated. Thank you so much :) Also side note, since I said I would help other departments, they said before my interview to also apply for geek squad/sales consultant, which I did. Only problem is that they were only for seasonal hiring. Should I also do the video interview for that too bef...

For shipped-out repairs, when do you find out what was repaired/replaced hardware-wise?

My 2021 Zephyrus G14 was sent out a few days ago for repairs, and the time between the service center receiving my laptop & finishing the repair was only 3 hours. From my understanding the issue was either with the dGPU or motherboard - when will I find out what they repaired/replaced to fix the problem? Also, the 3 hours total time is really sus, do you think the repair center workers are just speedy as hell or could this mean they may not have taken the proper time to fix the issue? submitted by /u/LindsayK01 [link] [comments]

Phone Trade In?

Questions before ASM phone interview

Hi guys, I have a BA, years of CSR experience in retail (albeit my stint in big box that I can claim was short), about 2 years of sales experience outside of retail (property management - I was in leasing for luxury apartments), and in about the past two years at my small retail store, I have been acting as a head cashier, essentially, and train people. I also have co-management of ops duties like inventory tracking/input and financial tasks, etc. I have a phone interview this week for ASM role. I feel fairly confident in the fact that I have a big background in retail and have been functioning in a supervisory role, but I just wanted to ask: do I have a decent chance or is my work cut out for me at BB if I were to get the job? submitted by /u/kitsuna__ [link] [comments]

(Seriously) Yall seem HONEST AS HECK so legit...should I buy TT when I go buy the following...

I'm turning our spare 11x14 room into a "video game room". I'm going to buy 2 55" TV's and two soundbars. I want them hung on the same wall with the soundbars under them. So knowing I am purchasing two 55" tvs, two soundbars and two mounts, should I get the TT just for the "savings" on the mounting? I live in Fort Wayne and I had one of the home consult guys come here and his ideas for the job were AMAZING and then he proceeded to just no do any of the stuff he said he wanted to do. So I'm nervous because I love Best Buy but ffs I hate going there and dealing with the excited ass guy talking about TT. So legit, should I? Idk where even to hire someone to hang a tv anyway. submitted by /u/Alaskan_Lost [link] [comments]

Does BestBuy offer the TMobile Magenta Max deal that Apple and T-Mobile have on their site for the iPhone 14

So I preordered the iPhone 14 pro (T-Mobile) from Best Buy. I think I’m supposed to be getting $800 trade in value. I already paid the remaining amount.

Do you get $800 for the new line on the unlimited plan, or is it $400? Best Buy site shows it is $800 with the new line, but the Verizon website says it is $400. Yes, I am choosing the correct unlimited plan. I am lost here. Can anyone clarify it? submitted by /u/coolguy090 [link] [comments]

Adding TotalTech to an existing iPhone Pre-order

Does anyone know if it’s possible to add a TotalTech plan to an existing iPhone pre-order? I placed a pre-order with a launch date pickup. However, I would like to add the TotalTech plan to get the AppleCare+ protection. Chat support suggested that I cancel and re-order the phone with the plan but that would set my pickup date back by 2 whole weeks (which I’d like to avoid). Is it possible to somehow add the plan by contacting someone else in support? Alternatively, could I add TT when I pickup the phone or do a return/re-buy on the spot? I will be trading in my current phone if that changes or complicates things. Thanks in advance! submitted by /u/Hmbtnguy [link] [comments]
