Geek Squad the geek squad really sucks!

I used the geek squad and if you have a problem after they leave you are screwed unless you want to spend more money with them. It was my worst mistake ever using them I spent over $500.00 with them and within 10 days had another problem with my pc and could not get any help. They really suck!

they cancel my appointment 2 times without notice or explanation and keep trying to reschedule out another 3 weeks. NO reason, why or explanation. I have tried to speak with a manager and was refused. I have sked for a refund, however, so far no proof they even did that. the fact they were rude about their mistake made things even worse.

Contacted online service to help with issue. After 2 plus hours agent proceeded to CUT ME OFF. Said he couldn't schedule the service I asked for with the representative that I wanted. He gave me numbers to call which were less helpful as automated system couldn't understand "home service". He couldn't even get my name right after three times.

I was transferred 3 times before even asking a question. 30 minutes later I asked 2 simple questions, never getting a complete answer. All I heard was

how the chat staff had poor equipment and that was the excuse for the delay.

That should have been the first line of the chat.

Now almost every weekly email stating it's is from this company stating that my annual contract is renewing and my account will be debited if I don't give them a call to cancel. Spam, Spam, Spam

How do I report this type of activity and where can I forward these emails?

Went to best buy in state college to ask a question about my apple watch and the one guy was really nice but the other one was not so I will not be setting foot back in that store to that geek squad.

5 phone calls for a Video Card. Made the purchase, picked up at Weatherford, TX. store. The Geek Squad Rep was wrong on their suggestions, wrong that the store has power plug adapters, wrong that they will call you back if we get disconnected. Just ignorant / unknowledgeable service that lie to you about calling back.

Geek Squad must hire from homeless encampments, or drug rehabs. THEY ARE BUMS!

I bought a used laptop from a thrift store for $25 and it wouldn't power on. So I took it to Best Buy to see if the "geeks" could check if it could be fixed. The "geek" plugged a power line checker into a 120 V power strip and then proceeded to insert the prong on the other end, with 120 V of live power, into the plug on the side of the laptop power supply that plugs into the DC jack. It started smoking. Even I know that touching a metal rod with 120 V into a DC jack intended for 16 V will cause a short or smoking. They are totally incompetent, and it makes me not want to shop at Best Buy.
