    What a waste of time. I came here to simply pay my bill and after standing around for awhile-- the…read moreemployee decided to walk up to two guys who just walked in and let them know they needed to sign. At this point, I'm massively irritated as I stood there for ten minutes and he never said a word. I said there's nobody else waiting-- can I be taken care of? He tells me I need to sign in and now wait. This is ridiculous and I'll never waste my time coming back here!

    My visit to Spectrum was to help a neighbor get their new mobile device as they had opted to go to…read moreSpectrum over their current provider. Since this space is new and I had a couple of questions of my own I decided to go along. This space used to be the Panera Bread and Radio Shack before that so its rather spacious. Social distancing is enforced and each of the staff stations has a plexiglass shield in front of them. There are a number of mobile phones to choose from but I will be sticking with Verizon since I didn't see any massive savings against what I am paying right now. Since they also deal with new cable accounts I tried to see if I could knock some bucks off my current monthly plan since its ridiculous but they could not oblige with this and suggested that I call customer care since they had more power to do that. I think I am leaning toward an Internet only process where I enjoy my streaming services and only use mobile but lets see what happens. Overall I found the staff that I spoke to friendly and willing to help. I've seen Yelps of otherwise but that was not my experience at all.

    They're my carrier but I am slowly growing tired of not having any sort of unlimited data with…read moretheir plans. I used to have this and then they ended it while other providers only increased data access for their patrons. It makes no sense. There isn't a technical desk for repairs and such at this location anymore which is a bit of a bother but I will say that every staff that I have ever dealt with is very helpful. It can get crowded depending on the time of day that you pop in and since customers rarely know what they are exactly seeking in terms of technology it can add to wait time. My contract is drawing to an end in a couple of months and unless there are better data offerings this might be my final go round with Verizon as a wireless provider. I will have been a customer for 18 years. Can you hear me now Verizon? Get on point.

    I just wasted the better part of my hour to we. First I waited 10 minutes while the employee…read moreresponsible for telling my people to check in scrolled through his phone. Then when I checked in the through the digital system, I watched everyone around me who came after me, get taken care of. Some customers were clearly known to them or their their friends and some spoke their native language. I spoke up and told an employee what was happening and they just said "Have a good day". This is typical poor service of this particular local store as I have been in there 5 times over the course of many years with 5 Verizon lines in my house , and the same quality of service continues. Very frustrating. Verizon can do much better than this.

    Well, I just ended one of the absolute worst shopping experiences of my life. I left this review on…read moretheir other site too. I specifically came here after ordering a Web order of one of the two things they had - and then the following sequence of events happened. 1. My web order was not on the shelf, even though I had a confirmation email, they saw the confirmation email in their system, and then weren't able to find it after 10 minutes of searching. They then told me to go to the floor (no help, no direction on where to go) to go find what they lost 2. I am told to go to a sales representative on the floor. I tell him what I need, knowing that there is still one left in their inventory since I didn't buy them out with my Web order. He searches the generic name of the brother labels i'm looking for (literally "brother's label cartridge"), the results are very long, he doesn't go past the first page, and he tells me that they don't carry that here at all 3. I then show him the page on the website with the right name. He finally looks it up. he tells me it's an aisle seven and tells me to go there. 4. I go to aisle seven I search for another 10 minutes, no help from any staff at this point, and no cartridge to be found - neither the one I ordered online nor the one they had left in inventory. Look, I know mistakes happen, but there was a point of friction on every single step in this process. There was no accountability, no support when things went wrong, and no accommodation once the experience is wrapped up. I've had two negative and two neutral experiences. I've tried. I'm sorry. Never coming back, and I'll let my friends know my experiences when it comes to electronics

    This store is very conveniently located, the staff is generally friendly and knowledgeable. Prices…read morerange from reasonable to good with some expected exceptions. Variety of merchandise is pretty wide with DIY sections being rather useful and interesting. Aisles are clean and wide, well-lit. It's easy to reserve pieces of merchandise online in order to later pick them up at store. Mail-in freebies offers are nice, too. The Brooklyn location amenities include large parking space and restrooms. There is no loud, crappy music blasted into your ears. Thank you for that! I tend to escape some establishments where music is loud and annoying. Too bad that the store has no seating spaces, since the location is quite spacious, and if you have time to spend there, you get tired. Definitely do your homework before visiting Micro Center, as that place is certainly intriguing, but your experience there is much better, if you know why you are there. If you decide to misbehave at that store somehow badly, then keep in mind that a New York City Department of Correction building is right next door :) .

    stop the DEI hiring. This store hasn't had any people in it since the first six months it was…read moreopen.. and I am not talking about skin color. I am talking about merit. When they first opened, most of the employees were Black. However, they were helpful, knowledgeable, patient, and professional . Overall, the employees used to be present. I don't understand how you could be in a sales position in a completely empty store; and two people walk in interested in with questions , but she was not interested in anything but getting back to her phone call . I know I am not overreacting because the guy who walked in before me said he wanted to purchase a phone line and keep his number. She gave him a price. He told her the price that he received on the phone..Her reply was exactly this "ok so get it that way then" . She had an annoyed, dismissive tone.. Also she was on the phone before he came in. Now she gets back on with the same person and starts talking smack about the young man who spoke broken English. Tells her friend the story like this guy who was just trying to find out info is a fool. She said "why didn't he get it on the phone then, okurrrr.. and then she went on to make fun of his accent. Now it's my turn and proved the other woman wrong that I spoke to for five seconds and she told me to call optimum and she went on a break.

It would be fine if they just weren't open on Sundays, or weren't open as late, but inaccurate hours are really annoying, especially when there aren't that many locations, and they're out of the way for a lot of people.
