The store is pretty good, organized, and filled with happy hardworking employees. Finding a product there was very fast and easy and because of the stores large variety of items I would recommend it. read more

Bought 6 tv and remotes paid more for the "2 year" protection plan, just for me to go today to get a new remote and they said my protection plan expired when it hasn't even been the full two years, the full two years would be on oct 16, 2026. DO NOT GO HERE THEY LIE, CHEAP YOU OUT OF YOUR MONEY. pos read more

Customer service fucking sucks. I needed 1 aux cord... I asked a employee as he was done walking a male customer to where his item was he was looking for, and all I got was a "if we have them they may be over on the aisle between the Samsung tvs. Sir, you have 20 tvs on the wall. Could I just get an aisle number or something? I go up front to the lady at the door, and just ask if she knows where they may be, just to be told, there is a que system and she can't help me right now. AN AISLE NUMBER WOULD BE GREAT. I'm not trying to jump in front or anyone in "que" just an aisle number would be great. I'm not at all asking you to move from your comfy little station at the front door Summary... went for an aux cord, after looking around where I thought they would be.. couldn't find one. Found employees... none would help me. I know my opinion doesn't matter... but I definitely won't be back. Hopefully other shoppers get treated better. The men definitely got walked to the items they needed. Guess I'm the wrong gender read more

Would rate them a 0 or -1 (if possible) BLUF: Service was terrible despite having an appointment. They lied to me directly and the "MOD", "Fives"? did not care about losing a customer, and more importantly customer First mentality. Details: Drove 50 miles (one way) for a set appointment for work on my iPhone needing a new battery. On arrival I was told the battery could be replaced within 1.5 hours, and they would get "it started right away" (I have the timestamped contract). I came back 2 hours later only to find it had not even been started yet. To make matters worse the MOD, Fives, said "I'm sorry and nothing can be done" only a reversal of the already charged replacement". I suggested a discount on the service due to the lie they told me and more importantly my loss of an afternoon of my time. I have also requested they remove my PII from all databases, datapoints. I recommend a total revamp of their thoughts on customer service. In the meantime, I hope this helps many steer clear of an unnecessary business with Best Buy. read more

I found out that this Best Buy has a particular phone I want. I was told there is ONE more and I need to go online and pay for it and it will be put on hold for me for 1 hour. I live almost an hour north of Gainesville, so I got it on hold and drove down there and was there in 45 minutes. I was told that they actually didn't have it. Their computer said that the phone would be delivered to that store in 7 days. I said "skip it". I was treated with lack of respect there last year too, when getting a dash cam. Best Buy has not been anywhere near the same that it used to be before the virus. read more

I've been to this location at least four times looking to buy a new big screen tv and some accessories with it. Each time I've selected the products, had helpful staff put it all together and ask it to be delivered and installed. Each time I mentioned up front that I was 70 miles away. Each time "not a problem" was the response. First time someone called after making my selections to say they couldn't come that far, tripled the amount of spending I'd agreed upon and never heard from them again. Returned a time later, shared my experience and began the process all over again. Again I was told no problem, there was a charge for making that extended a trip which I was fine with. This time I found I didn't need most of what we'd decided upon, was told all was in stock and finalized the purchase price. Was told it would be a month and a half before they could come after telling me they would come Saturday, three days from my visit. I said that's too long, can you do better. I gave my phone number and was told I'd received a call within 24hrs with a time. Been almost a month now with no call. Been a long time Best Buy customer buying most of my electronics from them. Lived in a different state and realize we are more remote now. Always different people at this location, inventory is poor and still can't get what I'm trying to buy. It's a big purchase. Hard to make sense of it. But we're done with this location. Unfortunately, they're the closest to us. read more

I live an hour and 15 minutes away when I got home I realized the purchase I made wasn't the right one some I called and asked the lady who answered she sounded of Hispanic decent i asked her if I could return and she said yes as long as you have the product the receipt and the valid ID I ask these people what time do they close on Sunday they said 8pm so I said I'll be on my way I drove an hour and 15 freaking minutes for them the have everything closed at 7:20pm smh read more

Totally unreliable. They will confirm an appliance appointment via a phone and then not show up with the delivery without any notice at all. If I had not called, we would have never known they had cancelled. All of a sudden, the cursed Friday (TGIF) delivery refrigerator has disappeared but strangely could be relocated and delivered July 5 no problem. We cancelled our Refrigerator order as they were supposed to deliver it in one day, then a week, and now they wanted to reschedule for July 5. Cost us hundreds of dollars. Do not believe their confirmations and don't buy any appliances from them as it will cost you in the long run. Customer service is mostly insincere apologies and lip, with no taking responsibility from anyone. Manager was supposed to call me, of course he did not. They don't care, and they don't get paid enough to care, apparently. Shop at your own risk. read more

I have used the Gainesville store several times. Although not heavily staffed, I have never had an issue being helped. The employees I came in contact with are always helpful and friendly. Our two most recent purchases was a microwave and a tv. I reviewed the microwaves myself. Once I selected one, an employee quickly arranged to have the microwave taken to the register for me. They also helped load into my car. Our other purchase was a 65" tv. We returned the 55" I had bought my husband for Christmas. Best Buy was excellent! They made the return of the 55" extremely EASY! Finally, I will say we stream our programs. When we got home and unboxed the 65" tv, we realized the FUBO app was not loaded. Needless to say, that was really irritating. We called Hisense support first. They were awful. They just said, FUBO does not come on that particular tv!! Then we called BB support. According to their records our tv should have had the FUBO app. We ended up making an appt. for them to come out. The person we talked to was Anna. She was awesome! She set up an appt for a tech. But she also said to review other tvs we liked in the event they could not get the FUBO app loaded to our new tv. If that were to occur, BB would come pick up the HIsense and deliver the replacement and hook it up for us!!!!!!!! I was stunned! Ultimately, there was a good ending. My husband looked, again at the app for Hisense which was put on his phone when scanning the QR code on the tv. He realized the FUBO app, we wanted, was there to upload to the tv when he scanned the QR code. All he had to do was continue following the prompts to finish the install of the app to the tv. Which he did. Fubo is now on our tv. In other words, USER ERROR!! LOL. We cancelled our tech support appt. But Anna was amazing as were all the employees we interacted with. Word of caution. Hisense just came to an agreement with FUBO in 2023 to put their app on Hissense tvs. NOT all Hisense tvs will have it. Double check that when purchasing. Fubo and HIsense just came to an agreement in 2023. As for Best Buy - DEFINITE 5 STARS! read more

Shopped there for a TV and Soundbar, the sales lady was Alyx, vey helpful and customer service oriented. It was a great experience, don't know why some of the ratings were so terrible, I think the customers need to put themselves in the salespeople's shoes once in a while, this lady was very professional and great to work with. Imagine, the price I paid was less than Walmart - Best Buy met all my expectations! read more

Went there yesterday. The customer service is so poor I will not go there again. Pushy salesperson pushing accessories she thought I needed. Geek squad was rude and unfriendly. It's sad because it's convenient. And sad I wrote this.. usually do not write a poor review.. try to focus on positive. read more

While shopping at this Best Buy there was a handicapped lady loudly asking for sales assistance in the computer section, obviously frustrated because there was absolutely nobody to help in the entire rear of the store. Then I witnessed an associate named Tiffany approach her and threaten four times to remove her from the store with physical violence. I've never seen this kind of behavior in a store employee, much less Best Buy. I was truly shocked. read more

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. The salesperson, Alissa, said the Samsung TV I purchased could stream Xfinity. It can't. I live an hour and a half away, and they want me to drive 3 hours to return it. They should pick it up since I made the purchase based solely on her saying I could stream Xfinity. I will never buy another product from them. Here's the worst part. When I called the store, I got a recording that says that store DOES NOT ACCEPT PHONE CALLS and you have to deal with their call center, which is a disaster. They put me on hold several times, disconnected me once and could barley understand my issue. I'm fighting this through my credit card read more

Best Buy - Computers Near Me - Gainesville, Georgia

I went in the Store last month. There's a greeter who said I'll find someone to help you. I asked three times in 30 minutes and no one came. I went back to the front of the store to see employees chatting and I said I'm leaving because I've been here over a half hour and one of the clerks replied "that's fine" and kept on chatting. I said to him no it's not fine and I left. He could have cared less.I couldn't get my own iPad or I would have got it and checked out. read more

This place is the worst. They have 6 people in the front talking and no one was in the back at the car radio section. We came here to buy a new radio and asked the people in the front that we need help. They said they get someone for us. We waited for over 30 minutes waiting at the car radio section and no one ever came by. You would think with people not wanting to go out and shop they'll be more willing to help people but no that's not the case. I just realized that shopping online is the better way.. read more

Unfortunately it is no longer the classy store it was years ago, they have very bad customer service and they sell you very bad insurance that in reality when you occupy them they give you other terms that are always for not fulfilling what was promised. when they sold them to you and they make many mistakes when entering your information and the customer is always the one who loses and has to pay out of pocket and it's not just this place but it's everything that Best Buy is read more

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!! After their online Customer Service told me to go inside my local BEST BUY (Gainesville, Ga) for assistance I entered the store and was greeted by a person that I later learned was the Manager. I told her what I was there for----have the auto renewal antivirus for my aunt cancelled. (She has dementia & I have her Power of Attorney) She sent me to the Geek Squad. The tech (Elvis--cool name!) was by himself & helping someone at the time. I got in line behind 2 people. While waiting 2 young ladies joined the line. When he finished he looked up at us & asked if we had an appointment (I did not) Only one person had an appointment (the 2nd person in line) The young ladies that walked up last said they just needed to do a pickup & he called them over without talking to the rest of us or taking the guy that had an appointment. Something went wrong with their pickup & 40 minutes later another employee came to help & he took the guy that had an appointment. After finishing with him, he called the guy that had been in line before me. Elvis told him he needed an appointment & he made him an appointment for a later time. Then he called me & said I needed an appointment. The next person on the appointment list wasn't due in for an hour. I asked if he could try to help me before then since I had been waiting so long & he agreed. After telling him why I was there, he told be that had to be done online. I told him online said I had to come in person. He said he had to get the Manager to help me. Surprise! It was the person who had greeted me an hour & a half earlier! She took care of my problem. I nicely stated that I was aggravated in the way that I had been treated. Elvis nor the Manager apologized. Hope I never have to go there again. Beware, you need an appointment to speak with Geek Squad but you probably still won't be helped in a timely manner. read more

I went to a confirmed appointment today and was told I had scheduled an in store consult. Yes,I did to fix a cell phone purchased from Best Buy , samw store. They said in store was for shopping only. Makes no sense. Then the Geek Squad told me they don't fix android phones? Again makes no sense ,esp. since they sold me my android. And want me to take out AGAIN. service protection. Why would I do that if they can't provide service to my phone? The man at 1 pm sent me to CPR I know times are bad and hard, but they are for me too and I put myself at risk by going in their store only to discover they don't provide service for me. read more

I have no issues with getting products from Best Buy. My issue is with their Geek Squad. I first brought my pc in to them in March to get a big upgrade. Everything but my gpu and PSU was upgraded and had them upgrade my C Drive from a 250 gb SSD to a 1 TB SSD. I get told that my PC is done so I go to pick up my pc. The swapped my 1 TB HD to the 1 TB SSD because they just assumed that was what I wanted since the other 3 drives I had were SSD. They did not even call to confirm what I wanted. They told me it would take 2 hrs to fix so I returned to work at 3:30 and had my mom go to pick up my PC. She gets there and it isn't done and was told it wouldn't be done until later. This was at 5:30. I call them just before 8 pm when the loc closes and they said it was done. So I go the next morning to pick it up. I also called them to speak with a manager to let them know about my experience and was told a manager would call me back. Never did. Fast forward to June and I upgrade my gpu and PSU because my gpu died. Easy enough to change and I did that and I messed up a wire and got no display. I take it to geek squad so they could help me figure out the issue and so they did. They didn't get the rgbs on my pc fans to work but that is a minor thing. Don't care about it as much. So then I notice my pc is overheating so I try replacing the thermal paste myself at the beginning of July. Afterwards my PC has power but no display. So that Saturday (7.15.23) I dropped my pc off for diagnostics. On Sunday they call to tell me it's a motherboard. So I buy a new motherboard to have them install. And yes I had told them about my issues with overheating. So I pick up my pc on Monday cause they said it's done. I plug my pc in and run it for maybe 30 - 60 min. It is still overheating and applications are crashing. My computer crashes because of an issue with the CPU Fan which should have been taken care of when the motherboard was replaced. I promise you that Gainesville Geek Squad is NEVER touching my pc again. read more

Don't have anything good to say about this place..... they should really take some time to add good staff members. Starting from the top! I'd rather go to busy Walmart than shop at this place. read more

Absolutely non-existent customer service. This has happened on five visits over three years. Always there to buy, never to just look. Was there today to buy two refrigerators, stood within five feet of three associates, not one even asked if they could help. Spoke the the manager today (second time), very nonchalant, asked "What would you like me to do?" The stores in Cumming and Buford are so much better and professional. read more

There were 10-13 employees visible in the store but no one would help. I wanted to purchase a big $ item and had some questions. Went to Walmart and purchased instead because of the poor service. We will never go here again to buy anything. read more

Had some questions about a TV and was told I was added to the "queue". Waited 10 minutes while 5 employees congregated at the front door.

I had decided to try Best Buy to install a modern car radio in an older model. The car is for a kid in college so it was important that she could turn to her local store if she had a problem. As there are no stores near me that do car audio I called the telephone number of one I was willing to drive to. That is where the problems began. My questions were for the install tech but the local telephone number is directed to national and that applies TO EVERY STORE. They refused to give me a local contact. As polite as that refusal was it was extremely frustrating as they do not have the same abilities to answer that the install tech would have. At one point in the process I did get an extension for the Jacksonville FL store where tech Josh was able to clear up all of my questions in 5 minutes flat. The only problem was that they were booked too far out in appointments. I tried to repeat my success with a different store (Gainesville) but National refused to give me the extension. Instead they walked me through all sorts of details on average costs and install only to tell me that Gainesville is not doing installs right now. This whole set up is a complete clown show. Best buy you need to do better. read more

I was looking to purchase a new LG OLED tv. Best Buy seemed to have the best price but this store lacks customer service. I walked around the store by the TV's hoping the two sales associates standing there would at least ASK if I needed help or had questions. Instead they both were speaking to a customer about hotel prices and other random crap that had nothing to do with thier store. I even stood right by them for a minute to see if they would notice, they didn't. I made my way to the front, I let the clerk at the register know they just lost a sale and a long term customer. I guess covid has completely crushed any sort of customer service with these big box stores now since product is slim and the business attitude is they have someone YOU need so they don't have to earn your business anymore. Sad. read more

Gainesville Ga. ordered through website for curbside up. 15 minutes later received notification order was ready for pick up, got to store, submitted comfirmation that i was there, waited, waited,and waited. Finally walked in and staff is standing around (5) employees and no other customers in sight. Really!! what good of having curbside if the staff is to lazy to do it? They could explain it themself. I will never got at any Best Buy again, past experience just as bad. Too many other places to shop that will be glad to accept my money and will give me good service. read more

I had such a great experience with the customer service at this store. Someone had switched the tag on an appliance I bought, so the wrong model was delivered. The manager, Jonquise, took such great care of me and fixed everything. I'd been shopping for appliances at Lowe's and Home Depot, but I am so glad that I decided to buy from Best Buy. The salesperson, Tim, was also excellent. Even the door greeter left a great impression on me. Good job, guys! read more

I hate this store. They should remove the CDs from shelves completely if they care that little. I swear I think they just throw them at the shelves. It takes effort to be this apathetic about your job. One must hunt down the staff for help as they are far more interested in chatting with each other. The prices, staff, and entire experience are a strong endorsement for online shopping. Every time I go there I end up shopping on Amazon, usually while inside the store. read more

I've never tried so hard to buy from a company & get such poor customer service. This is now the second time I've had to leave empty handed. Management does not care, & employees do not care. Glad they are hanging up a now hiring sign, as the current group needs to find other employment. read more

Unhelpful. Purchased car stereo with installation. Cover rattled and was extremely annoying. Asked for help from Best Buy and of course got none. Customer service was the reason I went to them but I learned that they no longer have that. read more

Great customer service!! Kevin Mody was really nice and sweet. He is very knowledgeable and wasn't pushy at all like other sales person are. I bought a computer from him and he helped me to buy a MacBook Air. He was so calm and polite and answered all of my questions very nicely. I have never met anyone like him. In my opinion, if I had to shop in Best Buy again, I will always go to Kevin Mody. He has an Indian accent but he is very nice and sweet. Because of him, I'll give 5 stars!!!! read more

OMG/ Best customer service ever!!!!! I spent an hour on the phone with Verizon to resurrect my hot spot that was not working. Verizon could not get it to work, neither could Apple.

Best customer service ever. read more
