this review is a huge shoutout to John who helped me get my dash camera installed for my camry! i had bought myself a dash camera and had to reschedule my appointment three times. when i arrived to my appointment this morning, John immediately helped me out! he realized that the dash camera i had bought for my camry was not the correct one and helped me buy the correct dash camera. John went out of his way to make sure i had gotten my dash camera installed today, i absolutely appreciate that! the dash camera installation did not take that long at all. it felt like it took 45 mins to get it done. i really appreciated that! Installation job looks great and i love that i can check my camera footage through the app. it's easy to download videos onto my phone. i appreciate John teaching me how to use the app and how my new dash camera works! My camry was well taken care of and installation work was well done! Thank you so much!! read more

The line is pathetic. Having only 1 person to manage a customer service line is crazy. Just go to Target if you can!

I've been frustrated for the past two days trying to find a charger for me old laptop. I ran into Adrian from Best Buy, we found exactly what I needed. I had some questions so he introduced me to Chris and Jon. Both these team members were nice and helpful. Jon took a little extra time to double check my computer. He connected it up to ensure that the product I was purchasing was the right one. He gave a Quick Look at my computer, and suggested the GEEK Squad. Jon really made me feel like he was genuinely interested in helping me, almost as if we were friends. Such good service. Thanks to much Jon ! read more

If you want actual help and customer service - go somewhere else. The only person who answers the phone is rude and acts like one question is a burden on his life. he obviously hates himself - it's a shame people have to deal with that. read more

Best Buy is usually my go to for electronics but I made an appointment because of a " cracked screen" . Literally wrote out a statement as to why I needed an appointment. Geek squad even sent me a list of requirements that I should have completed before I arrive to " save time ". Yet upon arriving at my appointment time I was told they " DON'T FIX SCREENS". They also could not recommend any repair shops for me.They said that if I had a receipt and coverage they could send it off to Dell. Ended up yelping screen repairs nearby and found the Rapid Computer and Phone Repair on 1837 Casa Grande St. Pasadena 626-755-9830 He ordered the part right away and I had my screen fixed in less than a week and for $125!!! read more

I had a really good experience during the Presidents' Day sale in multiple departments. Specifically, Nick in the laptops area was so knowledgeable and patient with me and my friend. He explained all the features of different laptops we were considering. Was familiar with the different software we needed to run and what was affordable yet met our needs. He was young and friendly and very very helpful. I wish I remembered the gentleman's name in the appliance section, he helped me with all the specs on a washer and dryer combo. Asked me questions I didn't even know the answers to lol. I went home, did my research and made my purchase without accidentally making a mistake on the type of dryer unit to buy. read more

this location sucks. no one ever helps you. I had to flag down two different people for help and they said theyd come back or send someone and no one did. Go to a different Best Buy unless youre doing a pickup order I guess. read more

Came in ready to buy a MacBook Air. Leaned on the Mac table and waited. Wasn't financing or anything. Was ready to buy and leave. No one in computers. There were cool employees cursing to each by the restrooms. But no one in computers. I typed this whole thing while waiting. The greeter was cool. Well off to find someone who'll like my money. read more

This review is for Jonathan Grayson. My partner and I stopped by several times in May to check out laundry machines and refrigerator. We have so many questions and measurement is very important. Jonathan assisted us with questions and even told us about the sales happening the end of May. He was so friendly, accommodating and gave us so many advice on what to purchase for installation. Best Buy was able to deliver for free and if there are any additional charges, Jonathan gave us a break down of pricing so nothing was a surprise charge. We came back again at the end of May to make all three big purchases. He told us about rebate applications for laundry machines which I applied for and received rebate recently. Last week we stopped by again to purchase other items and he was there so we asked him to help us again. My partner and I really appreciate Jonathan and we highly recommend him if you need help. He is honest, hard working and trustworthy. Now I'm living comfortably at home with all of these reliable appliances. We also opened a credit card with Best Buy so we can pay in installments with no interest rate if you pay off by a certain amount of time. Adulting is hard and having someone like Jonathan helping us makes it so much easier! Lots of parking spaces available. read more

I purchased a washer and dryer combo and the unit arrived damaged. Nick Ortiz was great and a huge help in rescheduling the delivery. They even gave me $100 credit for the inconvenience. Nick is a huge asset to the company and extremely efficient and pleasant in every way. Thanks for the help, sir! read more

Worst customer service I have experienced in a while. Added me to a queue system so someone can "free up." Waited about 20 minutes and nobody bothered to help. Waste of time. read more

I bought a new washer and dryer from Best Buy. They were supposed to deliver and install them, and remove the old ones. After FOUR visits the installers said I needed an eight foot connector for the dryer. Best Buy doesn't SELL an eight foot connectors. Nor does Home Depot, Lowe's, or Amazon. I'm stuck with a washer and dryer on my porch, having to hire an outside installer to finally put the washer and dryer in place. TERRIBLE SERVICE, BEST BUY! read more

We purchased a new refrigerator from the Best Buy on Foothill in Pasadena. They sent two people to take out our old refrigerator and install a new one. In the process of removing the existing refrigerator the Best Buy installers broke the water value behind the refrigerator and flooded the kitchen. They then called their.manager at Best Buy who told them to stop the installation put our new refrigerator back on the truck and leave until we could get a plumber to come to our house and repair the valve they broke. We have a plumber on the way but our kitchen is still flooded, the installers have left and we are still working to get Best Buy to come back and install the new appliance. Meanwhile we have no refrigerator, no water and no support from Best Buy. read more

Hey Stephanie E. That works in the PC/Laptop department, I really have something to say about you. I go to best buy extremely frequently and I have never had the service you have given me in the short time I was at a store, it baffles me and I need to write a review. You were amazing!! Haha sorry I wanted to throw my review off in that 1st paragraph. But I truly wabted to thank you for your help today, I was very impressed with how well you treated me in the brief 10 minute interaction we had. I loved how you set expectations in the right way and how you were unnecessarily apologetic, I really appreciate that as a customer. Basically, I went in to get an open box laptop, she greeted me in a very friendly way immediately. I knew the deal about open box items as in times the discounted item may not be available, but most best buy employees I've dealt with in the past told me that's just how it is. But she continued to say that she was going to check but wanted to let me know about the possible stocking issue just in case, and she apologized ahead of time when there was no need to. In short, she brought it out, opened it up for me to review before the purchase and made me aware of it's defects. Most people would just sell it to me without review and lmk about the return policy. She was also very friendly with her conversations and was an extremely sweet person to talk to. I had to leave this review, thank you Stephanie! I hope you do well at BB or anything you do moving forward! read more

This is strictly based on the sale and service of iPhone XS by Joseluis. Let's face it. It's the holidays, people get nutty and serving those who are always stressed out can get challenging. But not for Joseluis. His genuine smile, sense of humor, and great attitude make for buying a 1000.00 phone easy. He had us in stitches as he swiftly did his job. While Best Buy was hustling and bustling with holiday shoppers, we were in and out of there in a half hour. Often times buying a phone can be like buying a car, the process can go on forever. Joseluis is on point, gets the job done, and has you leaving like you just left a stand up comedy routine. I had better service for my Apple products at Best Buy than you know where. Just saying. Thanks for making this transaction so easy Joseluis, Best Buy, treat him right. read more

Best Buy - JoseLuis salesman extraordinaire! - Electronics Near Me - Pasadena, California

It's Labor Day weekend so I decided to come here with my mom to shop for some good deals. I did leave empty handed but of the sales associate stood out. His name is Nick and helped me in desktop/ computer section. I had tons and tons of questions and Nick was more than welcoming & informative. And although I left without purchasing anything he did give me some insight to finding the right product for my mother. He went to check what they had left in stock along with the refurbished items upon my request. The one thing I enjoyed most about my experience here was that I wasn't pressured to buying something. I hate when a sales associate pushes a product on me or pushes me to get a better version on it. Nick was the opposite, in a good way. He even directed me to the adaptors and cords so I can split screen my monitors. read more

Super grateful to Jonathan and his team (Zac) in the appliances department for the help and guidance in purchasing my first hardware (washer & dryer). It was super intimidating to be dealing with such large equipment as a single mom. The team came and measured the space twice as the needs changed. I was so appreciative to get help with choosing drip pans. The dryer for some reason did not work on first installation so the team got me immediate help ready to swap out for another machine. However we were able to make the first dryer work. I love my LG machines. It was also super helpful to get Total Tech and all the extensions packaged. I look forward to future home upgrades, thanks Best Buy Pasadena read more

Absolutely terrible experience. The management and employees and unhelpful and will leave you feeling frustrated and waste your time. I tried to exchange a samsung galaxy watch 7 I got on a Black Friday deal with the employee Rocco. Without telling me he processed the exchange as a return and then billed me for the full amounthof the watch. I told them that was not the amount I originally paid. I asked for a manager. The manager Yahir came out and said they already processed the return so there was nothing I could do. Feeling frustrated I went outside to call customer service and waited on the phone for 1 and 45 minutes and then the girl hung up on me. I went back in and asked for another manager and Simon came out. I asked him what I could do and he said I could have canceled the return within 10 minutes of processing it but there was nothing i could do now. Asked him why I wasn't told that because I wanted the watch back for the black Friday price i got. He said I can call corporate and I did and got hung up on right when they picked up again. Wasted my hole day and left me feeling frustrated. Horrible experience. I reccomend staying away from Bestbuy for your sanity. read more

Came here to get a new Laptop. I have been looking for an asus laptop however was not sure which one I wanted. I came in on a Thursday evening to look for a laptop and came across a guy named Nick in the Laptop department. He really was working hard to see which one I would like to get. He definitely recommend me getting the Asus M16. Asus M16- QHD Laptop with 165 Hz. I used it for a couple days now and I really like it. The only issue I had was my headphone would not connect which I do not know why. Played Valorant and it was great just like how Nick was recommending it to me. Overall I appreciated how Nick in the Laptop Department really worked with my. I think we spoke for a long 10 minutes because I was extremely hesitant, however he assisted me with my anxiety. I might not like best buy that much but whenever they need to come in clutch for me, they normally come in clutch. Would recommend going up to Nick for laptop help. He will explain literally everything that he knows to you! read more

Total losers. Sound issue with old TV; tried to get a soundbar at BB. Salesman made me feel as though my questions were an imposition on him. Poor coordination between Geek Squad and store sales. Looking elsewhere for all my electronics needs now. read more

This review is purely based on their phone customer service and not their in-store service. I have an issue with a device and want to call Geek Squad about it, so I called but Best Buy refuses to answer my phone call. I was on the phone since 11 A.M. trying to make contact with them, and my phone calls range from 5min-30min JUST to be hung up before talking to someone. It has been 2 hours of me making multiple attempts. I even called other departments, such as APPLIANCES and no one answers the phone! I even contacted customer service, they don't know what's going on. Best Buy- Are you ok? Are all the employees unable to answer 1 phone call? read more

This Best Buy has implemented a QR code system for you to sign in to receive assistance. I thought it sounded great, since usually I am ignored when I shop here. A young man was assigned to help me. When I explained that I wanted less expensive items because I would use on a limited basis. He points and says they're over there. I was like where exactly? Then he shows me an item that he claims is the least expensive at over $200. I remember buying it new for around $75 a few years ago, and couldn't believe that was the cheapest one. Then I was shown items for children as if, In any event, I decided to look online and saw the less expensive items that would meet my needs. My phone needed a charge, so I asked the cashier to help me with an online order, since I was told the less expensive items weren't in stock. She said the item I was trying to order online was actually in the store, and a few were available. Thank goodness someone at the store was capable of looking for an item a customer requests. Disappointing that the first person doesn't take his job seriously. read more

If any of you follow the financial news you know that Best Buy is struggling. From what I've read, they've fallen several spots on the Fortune 500 list, their revenue fell at least 10% and their profit fell at least 40%. Corrie Barry is the CEO of Best Buy. Corrie, I think I've discovered part of the problem! Today I went to the BB on Foothill in Pasadena, CA. I was greeted by the greeter lady and showed her my very old samsung tablet that won't charge. I explained to her that I thought the problem was the cable and asked her if they carried the cable I needed. She told me due to the age of the tablet the only place they might have the cable size I needed was in their gaming section. I went over to the gaming section, couldn't get any help. I decided I'd just buy a new tablet, so I went over to where the tablets are displayed. I COULDN'T GET ANYONE TO HELP ME, again! On my way out the door I said to the greeter lady, I couldn't get anyone to help me! Her reply is prob why BB is tanking, all she said was "I'm sorry". The correct response to help bolster the company's revenue & profit would have been: "I'm so sorry, let me find somebody for you". I did solve my problem by driving to the Apple store in Old Town and the sales associates there were happy to help me and take my nearly $2K. So, if you have a lot of time to wander around the BB cavernous store and be ignored, by all means, BB is the store for you! If you want assistance, save yourself some time and just go to the Apple Store. Based on the other comments/reviews, I'm not alone in expressing my displeasure with their customer service. read more

I will never buy from Best Buy. I called 3 times for an issue and was told on all 3 times that I will get a call back on the same day. Best Buy's never call back. I went to the store and all they said was we did not receive any calls. I could have gotten the TV at Sam's Club but decided to buy to support the local Best Buy store. I bought 85 inch TV and WILL be canceling this order when is deliver to the house. read more

I went for an exchange and Abrnol was great but when I went to the camera department for my exchange, Kathy with short hair, issued me a return immediately with out asking if I wanted an exchange and since I needed a drone for work immediately, I was unable to see a return on my card so I have to wait for a refund that being the reason for sainting an exchange first but nstead I have to wait for the return making me loose out on money and disappointing my client. Do better, pay attention, you lost out on an upsale. read more

2.23.21 A nice clean big box store, they had what I wanted easy to find, that's good . The not so good : only _one_ cashier even though plenty of employees standing around the counter . 'Robert' name tag, spent nearly 20 minutes on the customer in front of me, he was *very* polite and once I was at the counter he got me sold and out the door in about 2 minutes . On Foothill Blvd. in Pasadena right off the i210 freeway, use the MADRE exit and head North (towards the mountains), turn right on Foothill, it's in the huge shopping center with plenty of good parking and a $tarbuck$ too . -Nate read more

Best Buy's credit department sucks!!! They use Citibank. They are requesting payment for something I do not owe. They threatened to send me to collections if I do not pay it. I filed a billing dispute and they have denied it. I will NEVER do business with them or Citibank!!! read more

Shane was such a great help! We came to Best Buy determined to buy a Samsung TV we found online. We just wanted to see a display in store to compare the size. Walked to the TV section and at first we couldn't find any employees to ask for help. Shane approached us with a very personable attitude and asked if we needed help. We asked him to show us a 55" and 60" and 65" to compare. We asked him about the brand we found and he gave us his opinion about choosing an LG brand for the price point we were looking at. Then he showed us the difference of picture quality, a side by side comparison and we made our decision right there and there. I think it was a 15 minute transaction or less. We purchased the tv in store and it was delivered for free to our home in 2 days. Thank you Shane for your expertise. read more

Purchased a new dash camera and used Best Buys auto installation department. The rate to do the hardwire install was so inexpensive and the time that it took was quick! I had to write rave review for the service technician, Jose. This guy was amazing. The options he gave really made the difference in how perfect this install was. Jose was present. He was patient and very professional. I immediately went into the store and spoke to a manager (Brianna) and told her how impressed I was with my initial meeting with Jose. She mentioned that she would inform his manager, Frank. Great employees like Jose are the reason I keep coming back to this store and company. Great job Best Buy. read more

So I've been a customer of Best Buy for about 15+ years now. It seems like over the years, months, and days, they keep hiring incompetent and slow workers at this location and I don't mean that in a negative way towards the people that actually work there, I just mean they are not qualified to work in a setting like that or they just choose to be slow because they aren't being trained properly. It should not take 2 hours for a phone case to be ready for pick up. It should not take 6 hours for a PS5 controller to be ready for pick up. I can go on and on. I guess the days of good prices and high prices = great service are over and now it's just horrible service even if buying thousands and thousands of dollars worth of products from this location. Don't think I'll be stepping foot into a Best Buy when I can just order elsewhere for cheaper. Terrible service. read more

Terrible experience i just went there to return a dryer, they unloaded it and put it away in the store . Then they told me that I returned the dryer to early and put it back on my car and asked me to bring it back tomorrow.... read more

Never come to this location anymore, especially mobile phone service " worst customer service " 1. Lack of training " they don't really know what to do, give out wiring info and blaming it on customer 2. Some supervisors need to learn how to smile The manager in this location need to train their staff better , very rude !!! read more

The reason for returning the laptop in this store is ridiculous. My friend is a professional computer engineer and he has restored the original settings for me, but the clerk insisted on restoring the factory settings. I wasted a lot of my personal time in order to return the product. The attitude of the clerk was also very impatient read more

TOOK 5 HOURS TO GET MY ORDER. I spent $400 for items purchased online with store pickup in 1 hour. It took them 4 hours until I called and they told me to come into the store and pick it up (I had ordered curbside -_- but whatever). I get there and the manager told me it hadn't even been picked yet.l and to give her 7 minutes to confirm. I did that and came back 25 minutes later. They STILL hadn't gotten the order ready. Had to rexplain the situation to a new cashier because she wasn't there when I returned. He told me he couldn't help me, but he'd go ask someone. He walked off of the register and left me waiting for 30 more minutes. I never saw him again but he looked like a brok ass Napoleon Dynamite. After 30 minutes I ask for ANOTHER manager to come and she goes to the back to check; come to find out the items were in the back the whole time and no one bothered to check. I will NEVER be ordering from here again. read more

Our mobil representative at the store was awesome. But do not call customer service because you won't get anyone and you will be sent around in circles by automated systems. If you do happen to get someone, they will be in another country, hard to understand and they will not understand that you want to speak to someone at the store. The second person that I had on the phone in another country told me that I needed to call the store directly... NO DUH!!!! That's exactly all I was trying to do. It is serious BS. Everyone who helped us IN the store was great. But you can't speak to anyone at the store directly. Terrible. read more

My go to Best Buy location for years. Located in a huge plaza, right in front. Parking lot is big, usually packed but there are always spaces. Getting out of this plaza is annoying off of Foothill but the side entrances let you go left. Service is helpful. Store pick up is located on the left side next to the registers. Big store. Usually clean and organized, except on Black Friday. read more

I've been coming here for years and years now and I've always had help from Louie! He would be the first person to greet you when you arrive. I'd always ask him where everything is and he knows what to recommend and knows everything about anything I ask. This time I came in looking for an external hard drive for school. He was able to direct me to where it was, while also suggesting which one I should get. Unfortunately, they didn't have the exact brand I wanted at this location, so I was able to order with them and go pick up at a different, nearby location! Great customer service as always, and that's thanks to Louie! read more

I sure wish I'd checked Yelp before going in yesterday. The customer service was so bad. The guy seemed to be on the phone with someone while "helping" me. He then answered questions that he clearly didn't know the answers to because when I came home, it turns out my product didn't even have that component. read more

On June 28, 2021 I bought 2 TVs, soundbars and TV mounts. The process went smoothly except for the fact that it would take three and half weeks to deliver and install my two TVs. On July 20th I'm contacted by a Geek Squad member to confirm my appt in 2 days. On July 21st I get an email saying my delivery has been canceled as the two TV mounts I ordered are not available. While this is frustrating news I understand that delays happen. The email encourages me to try to reschedule my delivery. I try to reschedule but the very slow website keeps saying no to all my requests. After about 20 minutes, I decide to call customer service. I call the number and the automated service says there is a 30-minute wait. I opt-in to have a representative call me back. About 30 minutes later a rep calls me and then we spend the next 37 minutes trying to reschedule my TV delivery. She says it will be almost 2 weeks before she can reschedule as the TV mounts are delayed. I ask her to cancel the two tv mounts as I can order them on Amazon and have them delivered in 2 days. She cancels my two tv mounts and schedules to have the TVs and the soundbar delivered on July 26th. The Geek Squad will also install everything on that Monday. I hang up the phone that afternoon hoping to get an email confirmation with details for my delivery as I did the time before. I wait all day thinking but the email never comes. The following day on July 22nd I call the number again and thankfully did not need to wait more than a minute or two. I speak to a nice rep but quickly learn that my order and deliveries had been canceled completely. No refund had been an issue. Over the next 80 minutes, I work with this new rep to get things right. Here's how it played out. I was given a full refund of my original order and told I'd get the money back next week. A new order was placed for all the items I bought back in June. The rep has to wait a long time for a supervisor to give her approval for the sales price I had paid for the TVs. The rep books the delivery to our old address which I catch and ask her to correct The rep also books the delivery under my son's name. I have her correct that too. The agent bills me a second time for the $5000 order. So at this time, I am out over $15,000 to Best Buy. I am supposed to get a $5000 refund next week but now I have two charges in my account for around $5000 from today's exchange. The rep schedules the new delivery and sets it up to be on August 7th. She tells me she can transfer me to another person who will resolve my issue and get it all worked out for a July 26th delivery. She gives me the resolution team number: 800-304-1259. She transfers me and as I expected the transfer fails...she sent me to a fax number. At this point, I have spent about 2 hours on the phone dealing with people. I try calling the number I was given hoping to get help immediately but the number I have is not a direct line to the resolution team...It's a number to the customer service line...the same one I called 90 minutes earlier. The automated system tells me it will take 45 minutes for me to talk to a rep. I opt in to have the rep call me back. 65 minutes pass and no one calls me back. I try calling again. The wait for this 2nd call is 13 minutes. I end up waiting 25 minutes. I explain my situation and this new rep says she can not change my delivery time to an earlier date. I ask her to transfer me to someone who can help me. I'm put on hold for another 30 minutes. I finally reach a new rep...I share my story and she tells me she can not do anything to get my service moved up to July 26th. I ask her if there was a resolution department or desk and she says she does not know of such a department. I ask to speak to a supervisor....she says that her boss could not make any changes as one of the TVs I ordered was not available till August 4th. While we talk to her I decide to go to Amazon order everything there. I ask her to cancel all the products and to just refund my money. She cancels everything but says the 2 items that were being shipped could not be canceled. She tells me she has to transfer me to the shipping dept and they will help me cancel the 2 items. A funny thing happens while we are talking on the phone. Another charge for $120.52 shows up in my bank account from Best Buy. I ask her why I'm being billed again. She says she has no idea. She tells me I need to talk to financial to resolve the issue. She transfers me to the shipping department and I end up waiting another 15 minutes. I finally get a rep. She tells me the items are shipped and that she will try to intercept them but she can't guarantee she will succeed. She informs me that once the 2 items are returned, I'll get my refund. Total time loss on this endeavor almost 6 hours and nothing to show for it. I have no desire to deal with this company ever again. No supervisor ever reached out to me (even when I asked to speak to one). read more
