From my experience the Best Buy in San Marcos does not stand behind the products it sells and is extremely poor in customer service and expertise. My daughter is a student at TSU and bought a new laptop last fall after her other laptop crashed. She uses it every day for school. When her new laptop began to act unstable in April she took it to the store. A non-qualified (not a Geek Squad employee) salesperson said he could help and without authorization he "worked" on her computer which preceded to crash... Probably as a direct result of his "work." (He even told her he knew where she lived and that she should buy him a beer to pay him back. That made her very uncomfortable.) What followed has been two months of the store trying to fix her computer, even sending it off two times to the big Geek Squad in the sky. The store not only failed to communicate what actions were being taken, but were accusatory, intimidating and hostile. Nothing has worked in trying to repair her laptop and the store has said there is nothing more they will do and has refused to simply replace this "lemon, " accept any responsibility or take seriously the customer service/ethical lapses in employee conduct. I am in another city and have had to hear about her treatment at the hands of the employees and management. She is a little girl and has been treated rudely and disrespectfully which has demoralized and frustrated her. Dads, do you want your child treated like this when they are off at school? Even Best Buy corporate customer service, to this point, has been non-responsive and obfusacatory. The store is either inept or insensitive, neither of which makes for a trustworthy business. I suggest you shop elsewhere. I will. Apparently, this is not the first complaint the BBB has received.
