Best Buy Stores, LP - US Headquarters

I am rejecting this response because:1. Best Buy has not taken steps to actually fix their process, which is grossly negligent. I spoke with a Best Buy representative today, and she noted the reason why our dishwasher was not delivered (even though we paid for the dishwasher and scheduled an install 4 times, where Best Buy just never showed up or called us), was because the order for the dishwasher was never actually placed. As of today, it had still not been actually placed! This is grossly negligent, especially considering Best buy charged our credit card for the purchase over 1 month ago. We should really also be getting reimbursed for interest incurred on our credit card related to this purchase.2. We have not received the $[redacted] credit, and thus the matter is resolved until Best Buy follows through on at least 1 deliverable to us. We were told it was being sent to us 9 days ago, and I would not expect it to take longer than that to be delivered.

Dear Revdex.com (Revdex.com):   Thank you for bringing [redacted]’s concern regarding the delivery service and compensation request to our attention.   Best Buy deeply apologizes for any frustration this situation may have caused and disappointed we did not meet their...

expectations. After receiving Mr. [redacted]’s Revdex.com complaint and investigation we conducted, we would be unable to accommodate their compensation request of $961.56 for “personal out of pocket expenses.”   We have offered Mr. [redacted] our final resolution of a $[redacted] check as a customer service gesture via email on 06/23/2016. If they wish to accept, they have until 8:30 AM on 06/25/2016 to accept the offer by replying to the email sent by our Appliance Customer Care Executive Resolutions team.       Thank you again for making Best Buy aware of this situation.   Sincerely,   Steven [redacted] Executive Resolution Team Best Buy Corporate Campus

Dear Revdex.com,Thank you for bringing [redacted]'s concern to our attention.I was able to locate the service in question from 4/11/17. A new hard drive and Windows 10 were installed under service order [redacted] There was not a fee charged to [redacted] that day, for those services. Geek Squad services...

are guaranteed for 90 days. As this service was performed 10 months ago, it would not longer be under a service warranty. If further services are needed there would be a fee.Best Buy will not perform services at no charge and will not be refunding any fees as none were rendered, and it has been 10 months since that service.Thank you,Best Buy

Dear Revdex.com,I am sorry for the confusion - here is the email chain that Steve has been working on to get the customers issues resolved. The warranty has been cancelled and refunded and the late fees have been removed from Citibank. We are waiting to get a response on what her options are as far as her credit rating.April 3, 2017     Consumer Protection Division Government Center South, 5th Floor [redacted] Indianapolis, IN  46204     RE:  File No.: [redacted]     Dear [redacted]:   Thank you for bringing [redacted]’s concerns to our attention. The following is the response to consumer complaint File No.: [redacted] filed with your division. At this time Best Buy feels we have appropriately addressed this issue.   [redacted] purchased the Geek Squad Technical Support (GSTS) plan for 1-year and is seeking to have the plan refunded and any subsequent charges they incurred on the Best Buy credit card account and credit rating restored.   When customers sign the point of purchase box to verify signature, the customers agree to the terms and conditions (T&C) of the GSTS plan and plan terms would be sent to them via email address they provided and available on our website too. When signing, they agree to auto renewals unless they opt out of renewals when signing the point of purchase box at the time of the purchase. Our 1-800 representatives have shut off the auto renewals in our system and we have credited/refunded Ms. [redacted] $102.09 back to the Best Buy credit card for the GSTS plan renewed on 06/25/2016.   Best Buy has a working relationship with Citi Bank whereby they provide credit card services to our customers. For security and privacy reasons, Best Buy does not have direct access to or influence over Citi Banks records, policies, procedures or card holder agreement customers sign when it comes to removing any banking fees. However, after receiving Ms. [redacted]’s AG Office consumer complaint, we contacted Citi Bank on Ms. [redacted]’s behalf. Citi Bank has informed us they have removed interest, late fees and zeroed out her balance. Citi Bank stated they will be requesting a payment history update through the credit reporting agencies. For additional information or to verify the account balance, we encourage Ms. [redacted] to contact Citi bank directly at ###-###-####.   Thank you again for allowing me to respond to you on behalf of Best Buy.  Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns regarding this case.   Sincerely,     Steven [redacted] Sr. Executive Resolution Specialist Best Buy Corporate Campus ###-###-#### (direct) ###-###-#### (fax) Steven.[redacted]@bestbuy.com

I brought it to the Geek Squad at Best buy and I was told there is a virus when there is not a virus, the mother board is faulty. you sold a laptop with the mother board faulty. not only you are refusing to replace it, but you want to CHARGE me to fix it by your Geek Squad. The least thing you can do,its to have my laptop fix without a charge.

Subject: FW: CUSTOMER COMPLAINT: Violations of Best Buy Code of Ethics
Dear...

[redacted]:
Thank you for contacting Best Buy about your damaged television concern. I'm Dean with the Executive Resolution Team, and your email was forwarded to me for review.
I am very sorry to hear that there is a crack in the screen of your recently purchased [redacted] 65" television. I appreciate your concerns and forwarded your feedback to our Melrose Park stores General and District managers attention. They are willing to provide a one-time exception on replacing your television for a comparable open box or new television, up to the original price paid. The exception is based on inspecting your television for excessive damaged, and the offer is good till Friday, 1/1/2016.
Thank you again for making Best Buy aware of your concerns. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 9, 2016/01/21) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
I contacted Mr. Dean on 12/28/2015 by email to advise that I would be out of town for the New Years Eve holiday and that I would be out of town on that date 01/01/2016 and would not be able to meet that dead line. Also called the corporate office and in speaking with a customer service representative explained that I sent dean the email. She said that she would contact Mr. [redacted]. He did call me back and I was able to verbally advise Mr. [redacted] the same thing that I sent him in the email. Mr. [redacted] advised me that he sent a message to the Best Buy in Melrose Park and would get back with me. It is now January 21 and neither Mr. [redacted] nor the management team from the Best Buy in Melrose Park has contact me back. The operation, including the HQ have very poor communication and follow up skills. As you can see from all the other comments I sent in my initial complaint. This is UNACCEPTABLE. I can't get the company to follow up with me
At this point I think I want to take this a step further or file a complaint with the Attorney General.
Again, as a customer I am contacting them more than they are contacting me. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SUPERIOR CUSTOMER SERVICE THEY TALK ABOUT IN THEIR CODE OF ETHICS
Final Business Response /* (1000, 13, 2016/02/03) */
