So glad i got this. I mean why would you not get the warranty.

The agents were not clear in what the “warranty” covered before purchasing. I’ve had the laptop I purchased with this warranty for only a year and have already experienced screen black outs, having my files deleted, and a variety of glitches that have gone unaddressed. When attempting to bring it in I was told if it was a software issue it is likely that I caused it and would have to pay an additional $200 just to have it looked at with no guarantee it would be fixed. Mind you I am doctoral student at the moment and have used this laptop for nothing but school purposes. Disappointed in the lack of assistance in figuring out the problem and fixing it as this has been an expensive purchase.

I purchased this warranty for 3 years and now when it is not even close to 2 years they just cancelled without any further explanation even when I paid $319.99 dlls for 3 years.... They alleged the blue color code I purchase could expire without any warning????
I have been trying to speak with Geed Squad for 2 weeks and they are all useless over the phone & even on the chat windows... Noone can help me and tell me why they cancel the warranty on my daughters laptop. The worse part is that i also bought a 2nd laptop and 2nd coverage for my other daughter so I am afraid of another scam in the future... WHAT A BIG FIASCO ...
They have made me waste days and phone calls for these weeks and NOONE can resolve the problem and get back to me...
Thank you for taking time out of your day to connect with us about this. This certainly does sound like a frustrating experience, and far from the level of service we expect to provide our customers. We would love to talk over what happened and any next steps that might be available to you. Please give us a call at (800) GEEK-SQUAD or (800) 433-5778.

First…geek squad takes too long to repair laptops…they had mines for almost 1month now…I dropped it off at the store and they shipped it to the service center…they replace the mother board and sent it back to the store who then sent it back to the service center…and they will not tell me what they fixing other then say we had to order more parts…I spoke with a manager who personally told me they have 3 attempts to fix the problem before they will replace it and each attempt can take 2 months…
This review is from 2-Year Accidental Geek Squad Protection
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I purchased this and had to get screen replaced, the ease of booking an appointment was good but first time screen was replaced it cracked again within 2 days, second time I picked up the bottom rubber was mixing and a screw fell out. I have not have a good experience with getting my product fixed.

my new laptop had trouble, so I brought it in to Geek Squad - and was told that my warranty did not cover buying a faulty product. But they could look at it, which would cost at least $250 (after I already paid over $300 for this warranty. They said since it was still new and under warranty, to return it, which I did.
Hopefully that will also refund this useless warranty.

I waited 5 months after 2 months of when it broke and then finnaly they agreed to fix it. The first time i came the charge was more than the computer even tho i had protection plan! Now its free
Summary: at first scam 5 months later finnaly free.

There’s really no point to cover your device for 1-3 years but definitely a need to cover for more than 3 years cause that’s wen most devices start to break down. On the other side, if one bought it… it’s basically a donation to Best Buy, since you’d end up not using it & when you do you’d pay more cash to fix your device on top of paying for the send out fee!!

I made a $724 purchase on the Best buy.com website. A $530 laptop with a $194 Geek Squad warranty and I didn't receive not one reward point, why? because I went through Progressive Leasing, even used the 90 day cash option to pay it off. I actually could have went ANYWHERE with my Progressive account but I chose Bestbuy because I trust them and I've made many purchases from them for years. Had I known I wouldn't receive points I would've went elsewhere. You really need to change that policy.

Had it for 3 months and the hinge completely fell apart. It doesn’t close and I had to just spend more to get a new one. Bummer. Thought it would last longer…..

Extra protection for extra money. Most probably wont use it but you’ll never know. but mostly it is in the warranty which you could not read it not until you open what you purchased.
