    I'm long overdue to write a review! I have taken 3 free workshops here and have really enjoyed…read morethem. The creatives/instructors are really well versed in photography, video, and GarageBand. I had a great time and felt like I enhanced my iPhone experience. I can't believe these workshops are FREE! Last year, I had some issues with my iPhone issues and scheduling a repair. They helped me resolve the problem and voila I was all set! Will definitely be going back to this location.

    A couple days ago, I bought an iPhone 17 Air (replacing an iPhone XR). The keyboard kept switching…read morebetween the letters keypad and the character/numbers keypad intermittently. I called Apple and they scheduled a call with a technician (Harshil--very nice), and the technician did a "screen share" diagnostic. We tried all of the typical fixes for this particular reported bug, but nothing worked. The tech determined that it was indeed a hardware issue. Hey, things happen. They had another iPhone 17 Air at Bayshore, and he directed me to go there to get it. All I'd have to do is give these folks the case number and they would switch out the phone. The tech also offered me a free item from the Apple Store up to a value of $200 for the inconvenience. This was unexpected, but appreciated. I don't feel entitled to it, but thought it was a nice gesture. I go into the Bayshore store and explain that I have an open case and that I'm there to swap the phone. I don't know why, but they felt a need to run the same diagnostics and to wipe the phone and reload it. Guess what, it's a hardware issue. Now, I am so sick and I explained that to them when I went in. I did my best to isolate myself, but they relegated me to a table with eight other people. If I didn't rely on this phone for work, I would not have gone to the store. Anyway, the technician that helped me, Malachi, was patient, pleasant, and professional. Five stars for Malachi. He probably had to follow their protocol for going through all that steps to justify a swap of the phone. Up to this point, I had no issue. It's what happened next. They sold out of the phone model I had, whilst we were dinking around with all the duplicated testing. I would have assumed that since I made the appointment and they had knowledge of me needing a replacement phone, they would have set one aside for that purpose, but of course not. Again, things happen. BUT ironically, the EXACT SAME THING happened to me at this SAME STORE years ago when I traded my 7 for a 10. It would take five days for my new phone to arrive at their store. Anyway, I asked them if I could just get the next model up--a $200 difference, since they had it in stock. I got an iron-clad no. I've worked retail, so I understand staff have limitations as to what they can offer guests, so I accepted the answer and called Apple to see if they could supersede the policy. I am surprised by Apple's response. They kept driving home the fact that they were willing to offer me a $200 item from their website, but unwilling to bend on just giving me the phone they had in stock that was $200 more (higher storage capacity) in lieu of the $200 concession item. They kept apologizing for the inconvenience, blithely unaware that it was Apple CREATING the inconvenience. In fact, they are compounding the inconvenience. This could have been so simple. I am a forgiving consumer. I cannot rate this store more than a 3, and that is as fair as I can be. I really want to rate them a 1 because I kept getting the canned line, "It's our policy." Which is their way of stonewalling you, because it is an indication that they are not willing to do anything for you. I will come back and re-evaluate Apple when they get back to me tomorrow (as promised) to see if they will accommodate my very reasonable request, since 1. They sold me a defective $999 phone, and 2. Sent me to get a replacement and then sold it. Things happen, yes, but be willing to make them right. Especially at these price points. In closing, I'd like to ask: Is any policy really all that sacred?

Two calls with customer service later activation fee is never removed and to get the offer our internet has to be downgraded to a slower speed. We were lied to and customer service could not help other than to recommend we go back to the store and ask why we were told this. Is it poor training or good training on how to lie to someone's face. I will never set foot in that store again. -10 stars.

The process was relatively quick and painless, right up until the end when our phones would not work, both returning a "Invalid Sim" message. When we asked Lee about this, he said, "Oh, yeah, your phone is locked. You have to call your old carrier to have them fix that." That is information that would have been extremely helpful at the beginning of the process. He shrugged in response and only let us use the phone at the store (since our phones were essentially paperweights currently) once we asked. T-Mobile wasn't particularly helpful so now we essentially have mini-WiFi tablets for the next several days until the unlock process is complete. So unfortunate that this could have been a great initial experience with AT&T that will also be marred by this turn of events.

De'Airist and Yolanda were the BEST! De'Airist helped me with everything from deciding what phone to get, talked through all my options, ran through pricing and helped me pick out a case, charger and screen protector. He was trustworthy and knowledgeable! They helped me from start to finish, were friendly and enjoyable to work with - especially since transferring phone lines can be a hassle sometimes (they were amazing all the way through!). Can't speak enough about the great things about my service here and I was able to build great trust and rapport with the team. They went above and beyond with their customer service even through this process. I highly highly recommend!!!!

I was given an option that saved me $1800 over 36 months and a $200 gift card. Everything was explained except that I had to use my debit card which was worded as a bank not debit card so my auto pay is on my bank credit card which I thought was a bank card, nope it's not. I could have saved an additional $1260 over 36 months if the actual word debit card was used in the sign up process. Every day wording is essential when explaining contracts to people because everyone knows what debit card means vs bank/card most people don't think of their debit card as a bank card. Debit cards specifically say debit card on them and not bank card. Shame on me for not knowing that and shame on us cellular for not saying the term everyone knows. The $200 dollar gift is only good for 3 months so I put the card on Amazon as my primary credit card on file and I bought a $200 gift card with it that has no expiration date so I could leisurely spend it over time so as to not loose it. Overall I did save at least $2000 + over 36 month without knowing how much my Internet would have gone up over the next 36 months. It's definitely worth looking into for my situation.

The listing clearly stated it was sold by Best Buy and available at the Fox Point, WI store location. The same laptop retails for around $600 new. Before purchasing, I went to the store to inspect the laptop in person. It appeared to be in excellent condition and worked properly. However, when I attempted to purchase it in-store, it rang up at $485. Employees and the store manager refused to honor the website price, despite the SKU number matching exactly and the listing not stating "online only." I was incorrectly told it was sold by a third-party seller, which was false. I was then forced to purchase the laptop online while standing in the store. Just minutes later, I received confirmation that the laptop was ready for pickup -- the exact same laptop already sitting in the store. Later, when I returned to pick it up, an employee offered an additional $20 discount for the inconvenience if I returned and repurchased the laptop. After returning it, the store again could not sell it back to me at the correct price and told me I had to wait over 2.5 hours for it to be released back into inventory so I could repurchase it online again. During this entire process, I was repeatedly pressured to buy more expensive laptops with fewer features. I was also told I could only receive the additional $20 discount by applying for a Best Buy credit card. The employee began entering my information for a credit application without clearly explaining that my credit would be run. I find this extremely dishonest and unacceptable. In the end, I eventually repurchased the laptop online for the original $284.99 price, but the entire experience was frustrating, misleading, and handled very poorly from start to finish.

All I got was a run around. The people at the 800 number said they couldn't take my payment and so couldn't set up an account, the people on chat either thought they could do it and were unsuccessful or didn't know how to try. The first dealer I called said they couldn't connect my hotspot to their network, even though I verified it was good to go on their website. Lot of going around in circles and not getting anywhere. This all changed when I called the Cricket dealer on 7235 W Greenfield Ave, West Allis, WI. I explained my dilemma to Robert, who told me "no problem, we can get you going" or words to that effect. I drove over and found Robert to be personable, but more importantly, very knowledgeable. Despite a few hickups in the process of getting my hotspot connected to their network, he quickly worked through the problems and got me up and running. If only I would have called that Cricket store first I could have saved myself half a day of frustration. I highly recommend this store, and especially Robert.
