  • QuestionIn buying a new tv with the yearly membership, do you deliver, set up and can you set up my youtube TV on three tvs. Also, will I be able to use YouTubetv on the new tv I am purchasing and not have to have another device such as a fire stick or Roku?

    Asked by Rod.

    • Answer Yes, free standard installation and delivery is included under your Best Buy Total Tech. We can certainly assist you with setting up your new TV and getting your TV app installed under your membership. You will want to make sure you have signed up for the service beforehand so your installation agent can assist you with getting the app installed. As I do not know what TV you are purchasing, I can’t say yes or no on the Fire or Roku stick, but if you are purchasing a new smart TV, chances are it will support YouTubeTV without an issue and you won’t need either. Please call us anytime 24/7/365 at 1-888-BESTBUY (1-888-237-8289) or speak with a friendly blue shirt in store and we’ll be happy to look at the TV specs with you. This way we can make sure you are getting the TV that is best for your needs.

  • QuestionIf I have Total Tech and an appliance (fridge) is on sale, do I get the Total Tech discount WITH the sale price? Or is it one or the other?

    Asked by FDBayless.

    • Answer Hi there fellow member, Totaltech members get a 10% discount on most purchases at Best Buy, including appliances. However, you can't use the Totaltech discount on items that are already on sale. So, if you see a fridge that's on sale, you'll have to choose between the sale price and the Totaltech discount. One thing to keep in mind is that Totaltech members also get free delivery and installation on most appliances. So, even if you can't use the Totaltech discount on the sale price of the fridge, you might still save money on delivery and installation. I hope this info helps! ;)

  • QuestionIf I buy an appliance outside of Best Buy am I sill covered

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Hi, No, Best Buy Totaltech Yearly Subscription appliance coverage only applies to appliances purchased from Best Buy while the membership is active. This information is confirmed on the Best Buy website: Does a My Best Buy Total™ membership cover tech support on devices purchased outside of Best Buy? My Best Buy Total™ offers 24/7/365 tech support on all devices, no matter where or when they were purchased. However, the appliance protection plan included with My Best Buy Total™ only covers appliances purchased from Best Buy while the membership is active. If you are looking for appliance coverage for an appliance purchased outside of Best Buy, you may want to consider purchasing a standalone appliance protection plan from another company. There are many different companies that offer appliance protection plans, so you can compare prices and coverage options to find the best plan for your needs. I hope this info helps!

  • QuestionI purchased Total Tech when I purchased a new TV. Will Total Tech auto renew?

    Asked by Sue.

    • Answer Yes but their new plan is no free installs and 20% off in home service of any kind. Was all free with $200 total tech plan. Now for $179 you get a 20% discount only. We re done with them. They had the best thing going and were bringing folks back and now stores are empty again and folks turning back to Costco and amazon. Biggest mistake since they tried to force people to get the credit card to earn pints on Apple. Stopped buying apple there that day. They’ll be an online store only at best within 5 years.

  • QuestionI just bought an iPhone 15 Pro from Best Buy last weekend and I now see that the Total plan has AppleCare+. If I buy the Total now, will it cover the iPhone I bought last week retroactively?

    Asked by Treesa.

    • Answer Hey there! Unfortunately, Totaltech doesn't cover purchases retroactively. So, if you bought your iPhone 15 Pro last weekend, you won't be able to add Totaltech to your purchase and have it cover your phone. However, you can still purchase Totaltech and have it cover all of your other tech, even if you didn't buy it at Best Buy, but that you bought while you had an active membership. I would go to the store, speak with an associate to see if could return the phone, buy the Total Tech Membership, and then buy the same phone with the membership already activated so it gets AppleCare+ automatically. I hope this helps!
