Alfa's Tan owner Nguyen and tech Huy Phan are both customer oriented - and really know their stuff.

I dropped off my laptop approximately three weeks ago to have my documents recovered. Despite my…read moremaking repeated phone calls, sending an email and their promise to call me back, they have not contacted me as to why it's taking an inordinate amount of time for document recovery, what they have done thus far, what progress they've made (if any) and the overall status of the situation. They are being evasive and I am being given the runaround. Document recovery shouldn't take this long and if there is an issue I want to be notified with specific answers to my questions in a timely manner! This is not a simple matter of backlog or the complexity of what should be a relatively simple task. It's a matter of inept communication and the refusal of Plug and Play to provide the client with decent and professional customer service.

Coming to a Best Buy to try to buy a computer in 2026. That was my first mistake. Went to the…read morecomputer section, saw the computer (Microsoft surface laptop) advertised at $899. Asked to purchase that computer at that price. Was told "not in stock" so I asked to order it for shipping or pick up. I was told "can't do that" they don't make that computer any more??? But it's on display, with a big sales tag, on your shelves. I asked for a comp product at the sale price - they looked for 45 minutes had me waiting and waiting - MOD Mike came and offered me $50 off a $1200 15 inch laptop (trying to upsell me? Idk) but since when did their staff start haggling prices? Sounded fishy and I asked to speak to their manager - Cliff - and wow, I was met with a stiff rude attitude from the start of the interaction, despite my attempts to be courteous and kind. From the beginning he said " that whole area is Microsoft, it has nothing to do with us at Best Buy" as if he was taking zero responsibility for any of the products or prices I asked for a rain check for the sale price and he said "nah we don't do it" I asked for a comp product at the same price, he was not offering any type of situation. He wanted to keep me there for more and more time, after 60 minutes - clearly Cliff wasn't offering any help to me - nor any understanding or empathy - so I left empty handed. Going to buy from the Microsoft store directly. Best Buy - ugh this place should have gone out of business when blockbuster did.
