I have purchase an Open Box - Canon PIXMA TR4720 Wireless All-In-One Inkjet Printer from Best Buy (************************************************************************************************************************). They advertise in their website that the product Includes a full warranty and all its original accessories. Upon checking the manufacturer starting guide that comes inside the box with the product, it says that one of the box contents is two ink cartridges, one black and one with color. I also looked up on Amazon and searched for the same product and model (**********************) and it also says that it include the cartridges. I contacted Best Buy via chat and explained my problem a few time. The attendant said to me that the printer I purchased does not include the ink cartridge and I would have to buy it separately. I explained a few times that both the manufacturer starting guide and the amazon link were stating that it was included, and they said it could be a misprint. I hardly believe that both the manufacturer and amazon would misprint this information and only Best Buy would have the correct information. They said ultimately that they couldnt help me because they were certain its not included and I would have to buy it separately. For me, that seems like false advertising, as best buy stated and I quote This Geek Squad Certified Open Box product: Includes a full warranty and all its original accessories and the manufacturer is saying that one of the accessories included should be the ink and they do refuse provide me that even with all the proof.The only thing I want is either the missing content to be shipped to my place or to receive a refund in the amount of the missing content so I can purchase it. I do not wish to return the product I purchased as its not my fault.Best Buy Canada Ltd. Response

I will never order anything from Best Buy again after being defrauded by their online store. I ordered a Go Pro Camera Creators edition on sale from Best Buy. They charged my credit card ******. They never delivered the camera. They didn't issue a refund. I spent 6 hours with various bafflingly unhelpful customer service personnel, only to be told they deemed the order undeliverable, and no- there is no in-store or Purolator pick up option available. I have never had an issue having orders delivered to my home from any other online store. I am now out ******, and I don't have the camera.Best Buy Canada Ltd. Response

Same, bought extended warranty and when the problem occured with my appliance I had to go through 3 repairs which weren't successful (not the problem yet), and on the fourth time the manufacturer messaged my saying that my fridge is not repairable and is faulty, so that means it needs to be replace. This is where the real problem happens - Best Buy ignores me for several weeks. I had to call or chat with GeekSquad agents almost every day. They only take my information and create new incident numbers, but the management above just never responds. They have all the paperwork from the manufacturer that THIS IS NOT REPAIRABLE, but no-one from BestBuy contacts me, at this point im living 2 months without a refrigerator and cannot buy groceries (dairy etc), being kept hanging that soon soon I will have to get a working fridge, but nothing. I had to contact every possible department, social media accounts, talk to store managers who promise to contact me in 48hrs but don't, resend manufacturer's confirmations.. I'm chasing a circus. Finally (today) I got a very short email from someone saying "Yes, you were correct.. someone from the store will contact you about getting a new fridge". No apologies, like I'm not a client who paid for premium coverage and was ignored for weeks but an annoying benefits abuser. My fridge broke so quickly that I'm not winning here by getting a new one, I have to buy a new coverage now too. If these appliances break so quick, stop selling them and stop recommending these brands to you customers, and most importantly fix the problem with whoever makes decisions above. Phone/chat agents do a great job understanding and filing the information but whoever receives it should have a better system. They are the problem. My issue has still not been resolved, but after you contact everyone and loose hope they start to move around. Definitely would not recommend GeekSquad anymore, few years ago it was a much better system.Best Buy Canada Ltd. Response

I recently had to claim a warranty for a product I purchased from Best Buy, and the experience has been extremely frustrating and disappointing. When I first contacted Geek Squad to claim my warranty, they provided me with a bill that had a lower value than what I actually paid. This discrepancy was concerning as it suggested I wouldnt receive the full amount I was entitled to under the warranty.Seeking a resolution, I reached out to Best Buy directly. Best Buy was able to provide the original bill, which accurately reflected the exact amount I paid at the time of purchase. However, despite their assistance, the issue remains unresolved because the refund process has not included the tax amount I initially paid.The lack of a full refund, including taxes, has been unacceptable. Hence, I have escalated this issue to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) due to the inadequate handling and incomplete resolution provided by both Geek Squad and Best Buy. This experience has significantly diminished my trust in both services, and I am highly disappointed with the overall customer service.I urge potential customers to be cautious when dealing with warranty claims through Best Buy and Geek Squad, as my experience has shown significant gaps in their process and a lack of coordination that can result in incomplete refunds and unresolved issues.Best Buy Canada Ltd.

Hi ******,We're terribly sorry to hear about your recent negative experience with your Best Buy ****************** request.From what we can see on our end, based on your recent interaction with our contact center agent, it appears that the order which you were referencing is for an item that does not actually have a protection plan associated with it.

Best Buy allows anyone to sell as a Market Place Seller, but then does not back up the customer if there is an issue. They make you correspsond directly with the seller. I purchased a laptop which they sent me the wrong one - a model that was significantly lesser quality then the one original purcahsed. They offered me a measly discount of $55 to keep the products although I could buy the exact same product locally for $200 less then what I was orignially charged. Multiple customers have not recived thier refunds from the seller Always Tech after sending back thier products as shown in the reviews. I contacted both the seller and Best Buy as the reviews had me feelinbg nervous about being scammed. I used the web code on my reciept to look up the product I purchased and the same product I purcahse is now listed with a completely different seller sitl with the WRONG description as they dont even have the correct product to replace it with. This all seems very scam like to me and Best Buys response was a simple "im sorry". They did not offer any help.Best Buy Canada Ltd. Response

Beware!!!!I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with Best Buy's handling of a warranty claim for a 55-inch TCL ** I purchased over a year ago. I paid extra for a two-year replacement warranty, and at the time of purchase, a Best Buy representative assured me that if my ** had any issues, they would simply provide a store credit for a new one.Recently, my ** started malfunctioning, so I opened a claim with Geek Squad. The next day, I received a shipping label but no packaging materials. I contacted support and requested a box to pack the ** for shipping, as I no longer had the original packaging. Support denied my request and instructed me to take the ** to the nearest Best Buy store for assistance.I drove to the store at *****************************************, only to be rudely told they could not accept the ** and that I would have to ship it myself. When I asked for a box to ship it, they refused and directed me to purchase one from **** However, the *** store did not have boxes large enough for the **. I then visited another Best Buy store at ***********************************************, where after much insistence, they finally accepted the ** but informed me I would have to wait for the Geek Squad to process the gift card.It has now been four days, and the ** still has not been shipped from the store. Each time I call Geek Squad, I am told to return to the store, which is highly inconvenient and frustrating. When I requested to speak with a supervisor, the call was abruptly disconnected.The entire process has been incredibly stressful, with rude staff, poor communication, and a complete lack of support. . I feel scammed and stuck, regretting ever purchasing a warranty from them. I strongly advise against purchasing any additional warranties from Best BuyBest Buy Canada Ltd. Response

Geek Squad Membership + 5yr Protection Plan rip off We bought a dishwasher from Best Buy on Cambie in ********* in 2022. They gave us $100 off on the dishwasher (or on installation, cant remember which) if we bought a Geek Squad membership, telling us we could cancel the membership anytime before it renewed for $289 one year later. I put a reminder in my phone to cancel it and went online to do so. That turned out to be impossible. I went to the store. They said you have to call the ***** number. We did that together on April 24/23 sitting in our car. We were on hold a long time. The person came back eventually to say that it was cancelled. The refund we requested for the $289 they had already improperly billed us on our credit card was not addressed. One year later on April 17, 24 we were again charged $268.79.for Geek Squad membership. I went to the ************* store, spoke to a manager named *****, who took action. He gave me $300 in cash, and walked me over to the Geek Squad office to get them to cancel the membership. I asked for some sort of record of the cancellation. They said they had no way of giving that. I suggested a screen shot be emailed to me. Along the way ***** explained that my 5 yr protection plan on the dishwasher would be cancelled along with the Geek Squad membership. I explained to him that meant the actual cost of the protection plan far exceeded the value of the appliance: $79 up front fee + 5 x $270 annual Geeks Squad fee. He hadnt thought of that. I asked him to ensure that customers were informed about the full cost of the protection plans going forward and that he pass the message up the chain of command, since this is not at all ****** or the sales staffs misdoing. It is their employer, Best Buy Canada who has put them in this unconscionable position and made them vulnerable to the polite yet pithy explanation ***** received from me this morning.Best Buy Canada Ltd.
