      Hi ******,

      We have received a complaint you have made to the Better Business Bureau.

      Unfortunately, lost shipment claims must be opened within 90 days of delivery, as after this period, we are unable to investigate with the carrier. We are unable to look into this further for you as it has been 14 months since your purchase was made. We will be unable to assist you with a refund or reshipment.

      Apologies for any inconveniences.

      Thanks,

      The Best Buy Team

      I am rejecting this response because: There are extenuating circumstances as to why it's taking awhile before I made contact but the fact remains that an item was purchased from your company and no notice whatsoever was issued as to delivery or non delivery of item, so as far as i'm concerned it was never sent and money was paid for nothing or do you just scam people as habit? The least that you can do is refund amount.

      Sincerely,

      Hi ******,

      Thank you for your response!

      I do apologize for any inconveniences we may have caused, however, as per our last response, lost shipment claims must come in within 90 days of delivery. We are unable to investigate this matter with the carrier after 90 days. 

      Based on what we can see, your package was shipped out to you on May 10, 2023 under tracking number **************** but as it has been 90 days since the delivery date, this tracking number is no longer valid and no further information is available associated with it. It is the customer's responsibility to inform us within 90 days whether or not their package was received. As of today, it would be nearly 16 months since this product was shipped out with our seller.

      Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

      Thanks,

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The attached invoice is the ONLY communication I received. There was no notice of delivery, no notice or correspondence of non-delivery whatsoever. The least you can do is refund the cost of the phone I am willing to accept $150 rather then the full cost charged to my card. I am on assistance and have medical issues that I have to deal with and need a cell phone and cannot afford to pay again for a phone when I already did purchase one and should have received but didn't.

      Hi ******,

      Thank you for your response!

      Unfortunately, our response remains the same and we are firm with the denial of your refund.

      As per the our last responses, your order was placed well over a year ago in May 2023 and we are no longer able to open an investigation with the carrier regarding this shipment. As such, we will not be offering any reshipments or refunds for this order.

      Apologies for any inconveniences.

      We ordered a computer monitor from Best Buy on October 3, 2024 (order placed under my partner's name ***** **********). When we received the order it was the wrong monitor (one that was nearly half the cost of the one we ordered and paid for). We have placed numerous calls to Best Buy to have this resolved and they keep giving us the run around, changing their service standards (were promised an answer in 5 business days, then 7 days then 10) all while we still do not have proper product we paid for.

      I purchased an extended warranty for an ** refrigerator on December 29, 2020 along with a 5 year extended warranty which covered all repairs and replacement if the unit was deemed unrepairable. I reported on September 4, 2024, that the unit would not turn cold. A repairman came to my house on Sep 10 and replaced the compressor. On Sep 11, he returned when I reported that the unit was still not cooling. He tried filling the coolant and discovered an internal leak and said the fridge was unrepairable and had to be replaced. He reported the issue back to **/Assurant/Best Buy on Sep 12. On Sep 28, Best Buy contacted me to say that there was a problem with the first service call and that they would need send a repairman again to assess the unit. On Oct 8, the same repairman came to the house, recognized the refrigerator, and said that he had already reported the fridge as dead, but that he would do so again on Oct 9. On Oct 15, I had not heard from Best Buy and they claimed the repairman did not submit a report. I texted the repairman and he confirmed that the report was submitted to ** on Oct 9 stating the unit was unrepairable. I have chased Best Buy every day since Oct 15 and they claim that no report is in. Since Sep 28, I have provided them with the repairman's name and contact information and they refuse to call him to rectify the issue and provide me with a replacement fridge or value. I consider these actions to be purposefully fraudulent in an attempt avoid replacing the fridge or paying me the replacement cost. The warranty also covers food spoliage. If this issue is not resolved within the next 72 hours I will be filing a lawsuit against Best Buy for selling me a fraudulent extended warranty policy that they have no intention of honouring and for the extra costs and inconvenience of being without a fridge for over 40 days.

      I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you've been experiencing with the repair/replacement of your refrigerator. I'm here to assist you, and I will be reaching out to Geek Squad to investigate what is happening and why the exchange of your unit has not yet been completed. I will keep you updated as soon as possible.

      Once again, I am truly sorry for the situation, and I hope to provide you with a swift resolution. I will send you a direct email from Best Buy so we can stay in touch more efficiently.

      In June of 2024, I ordered a Fridge. Full payment was taken from me. Ive learned several times delivery is rescheduled. I had confirmed it was in the warehouse. They actually told me, it likely was sold to someone else! How does this happen AFTER Ive PAiD for it!? I requested a refund on October 8th, which was never done. In fact they yet again sent me a new delivery scheduled date for November 5th. NUMEROUS times I had requested to have this escalated to a manager or customer retention department as NUMEROUS times this was happening to me with my fridge order!! NOTHING done! I want my money refunded AND I want the fridge I paid for and never received due to the incompetencies of this company. Ive been paying interest on this fridge that I dont have. This is the LEAST that should be done for the time, inconveniences, energy, interest money collected on my credit card and hastle this has created for my family. I told them today, I was contacting the BBB.

      Hello ****, 

      I hope this email finds you well. Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns. I deeply apologize for the frustration and inconvenience youve experienced regarding your fridge order. I understand how disappointing it must be to deal with repeated delays, especially after full payment has been made. We have previously compensated you with a $200 Gift Card which you have used, therefore, we would like offer you $150 more if you wish to wait further. You have the other option to cancel the order for your Fridge unit entirely (You will be refunded the full amount of your unit including shipping costs and taxes). Additionally, I want to assure you that our Best Buy warehouse has not yet received your unit and would have most definitely shipped out your unit the moment we received it. Again, I am sincerely sorry for the current circumstances as our team is doing their absolute best.

      I want to assure you that your experience does not reflect our standards of service. Regarding your refund request made on October 8th, I will ensure that it is processed as a priority. I also understand your desire to receive the fridge you ordered, and I will check on its availability and delivery options. I appreciate your patience and again, as we actively work to resolve this situation and I will keep you updated on the progress.
      If you have any further questions or need assistance, please feel free to reach out directly to me.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      Note from my husband:

      My name is *** *******.  I am ****** Husband.  The way Best Buy has handled this entire situation is appalling.  We collectively have been on the phone countless times * dealing with complete incompetence.  At this point * your promises of expediting case numbers is a complete joke.  It is disgusting.  We gave Best Buy our hard earned cash to purchase a product we have never received.  You gladly took our money and failed to deliver a product.  As mere compensation for multiple delays * you offered $200 in gift certificates * what a joke * we gave you over $3,800.00 for a product we never received.  And you offer compensation in the form of a mere fraction of the total worth of what we paid * and then to add insult to injury * the gift certificates * were even harder to redeem and spent countless hours trying to get someone on the phone to resolve the issues with that as well.   Are you kidding me?  You have our money.  We do not have our refrigerator.  Previously * the customer service agent said we'd be receiving a full refund within 5 to 7 business days.  Um excuse me Sir * but it is well past the 5*7 business days and we have not received any refund.  



      Contacting the BBB is just the first step.  And it took that action to get someone at Best Buy to respond.  Really seriously?


      If we do not receive our refund within the next 24 hours (well past due the 5*7 business days initially communicated by Best Buy) * the next step is we will pursue legal actions accordingly.  This is deceptive marketing, fraud, false advertising and a classic bait/switch scheme.  You have essentially stolen money from us and we want our money back immediately.  **** has asked multiple times for this to be escalated to executive management * yet this has not been done.  Again * refund the money immediately * whilst we investigate * who it is that needs to be contacted at Best Buy Corporate to ensure Best Buy Executives know the complete and utter disgust with the way this has been handled * SINCE JUNE OF THIS YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!   


      We will be consulting with our attorney on how to file legal actions against Best Buy.  I suggest you ensure our money is refunded promptly * not in 5 to 7 business days but within 24 Hours.  And in the meantime * I want a call from the Regional Vice President of Sales from Best Buy responsible for the ************************  This is complete mind*blowing * the level of incompetence.....

      Hello **** and ***,

      I appreciate your response with the additional context and feedback regarding this situation, and I deeply apologize for the continuous delays and frustrations you're currently experiencing. Thank you for your continued patience as we got to your escalation and regrettably it took us a bit longer to address your situation as we're experiencing a higher volume of escalations.

      Once again, I understand how difficult and frustrating it may be to go through such a lengthy process, no customer deserves that. I also understand that spending such a large amount of money on an appliance and receiving delays can add insult to injury.

      Regarding our call agent advising you that the refund will be processed in 5-7 days, I apologize for the miscommunicated information, but it should have been 5-7 days to be contacted regarding your escalation. As of typing this email, I have forwarded the call to our coaching team for review to ensure proper expectations are being relayed to our customers in the **********************.

      Additionally, we have cancelled and refunded your order, and you'll see your refund value at the original amount of $3591.27 reflected to your credit card in 3-5 business.

      The $200 gift card offer still stands, therefore, if you accept the offer, I can get that processed for you as soon as possible as well.

      Furthermore, the unit you had purchased is coming directly from the manufacturer instead of us, meaning that the delivery date is always tentative for these items. We may not get notified if the item will be delayed or not, as there may be delays with receiving certain parts at a Manufacturer level. Typically these items aren't delayed for extensive periods of time, although this is why we offer compensation in the form of gift cards when they are. I assure you this is a rare situation, as a typical delay is within a week or two.

      Lastly, I would like to apologize once more for the situation and moving forward, I hope this will not happen again. Thank you for bringing this situation to our attention, and please let me know if there's anything else I may be able to assist you with.

      I ordered a fridge online with Best Buy. The fridge was delivered on Sept 4. It fit in the front under the cabinets but could not be pushed back to fit further. The delivery persons said the wheels could be taken off in the back and "did I have a friend who could help me do this" . I am a 64 year old single wo***. I asked them to do it and they said they could not as they had 4 more deliveries to make that day. They left it sticking out in my kitchen blocking the door to the bathroom. The floor was scratched.Note on the delivery notice saying it might need to be returned. On Sept. 7th, my friend looked underneath and said no the wheels were clearly attached to the casing on the bottom of the fridge. I phoned Best Buy customer service.The first *** I spoke with told me to probably buy another fridge as it might be a week or so before they could do anything.He gave me a case number #********.I purchased online another fridge from Best Buy. The second delivery persons moved the first fridge into the hallway of my co-op. they did not take the first fridge, no paperwork.This first fridge is in my hallway, today on Oct. 16th. I have spoken with 8 agents over 6 weeks, who sympathize a lot with me they say they are taking notes. One says I will get a call the other says no it is never a call, only email. one says he is a supervisor when I say I am going to the Better Business Bureau. He says he will call by today. I have not heard from him. The agent in charge at headquarters is called Kaila, never spoken to her. I have sent pictures to her (or ?)it was sent to customer service@ ********************** .The agent today when I called ,could not see any pictures on my file. I am frustrated, as I have no recourse, no number other than the same one I call over and over with the same nice practiced responses and absolutely no action. I have never received a call from anyone to date. I got a standard email response saying thank-you for contacting Best Buy at week 4.Please advise

      Hi *******,
      I sincerely apologize for this delay in my absence. I understand the ongoing run around has caused you immense stress and frustration and I apologize for the time that has elapsed due to the inactivity.

      As return pickups cannot be processed due to any size issues, outlined by our return policies for ***** Appliances, this has been processed as an exception. I see from a previous case note that your building only allows certain days for deliveries and would like to inquire if this applies to the return pickup. As of right now, it has been scheduled on the carrier's next available date, October 22nd, 2024. If this does not work, I will be able to reschedule this on a date that better suits your building's requirements.

      I have also been informed by the call centre's notes regarding property damage. This will be fully assessed by our team in the Home Delivery department.

      I understand the ongoing distrust going forward, but I would like to ensure this email line of communication will be opened and you will not have to phone the call centre. I will be in office from 8:00am-4:30pm PST for the remainder of the week. 

      Thanks,

      On Sept 15 I ordered a Cooluli mini fridge from BestBuy Marketplace sold by ***** Canada. They claimed they would ship it within 2 business days, but shipped it 2 weeks later. When I received the package I found that they had ordered a cheap mini fridge off Amazon and sent it instead. The package even had the ****** shipping label still attached showing that it had been shipped to *****. As the product is completely different, and I could see the Amazon shipping information, there is no chance this was a simple error, the only explanation is that they were hoping I would not be willing to go through the hassle of a return. When I notified them of the problem they sent the ****** return label, rather than the return label for my address (fraud attempt number 2?). I asked them for the correct product which they informed me would be sent once they received the returned item. Today I received a a message saying they have issued a refund as the product is out of stock in spite of the fact that the exact product is currently advertised on the BestBuy website. Throughout the entire process they have replied days after being contacted with automated messages only. I am also very suspicious that most of the ***** Canada reviews are fake. BestBuy took zero action when they were informed of the situation, despite BestBuy claiming that they "hand-pick" their "top-quality" sellers.

      On the 11th of October I made an order for a steeply discounted last-in-stock item (an open-box Bravia 7 55 inch TV) for *******, along with a 4 year geek squad protection for ****** . Item was supposed to be delivered on the 12th of October.On the night of the 14th of October, I received an email from Best Buy stating the the order was cancelled "because our system detected a possible security verification issue." This didn't make much sense as I am confident that my billing details are accurate, and I've used my credit card with every retailer imaginable without any issues.I called Best Buy on the 15th to understand why it was canceled, and they stated the billing address issue, and when I told them my billing details are accurate they couldn't provide an answer or a satisfying resolution.I then opened a chat support to try and address the issue and find alternatives, and that's where I got the real response "I'm sorry to inform you that your order has been cancelled due to being out of stock from the vendor and taking too long to fulfill the order. The automated system has canceled your order. Any authorization should drop within 3-5 business days". When I pressed the chat agent further and told him that I received an email stating order was canceled due to billing issue, the agent's response was "I'm sorry for the inconveniences I can understand your concerned but I have checked regarding your order and the order is out of stock due to that reason the order is cancelled and the authorization will be drop with in 3-5 business days".So as I understood, during the processing of my order, someone else made a purchase causing the item to go out of stock (since it was last in stock). And instead of Best Buy admitting to them not honoring the purchase and holding the product, they issued a cancellation email due to security verification issue.All I ask is that Best Buy honors the purchase at the pricepoint advertised.

      Hi Ala,

      We have received a case regarding a complaint to the Better Business Bureau about an order that was cancelled.

      From what I can see, your order was cancelled on October 14, 2024. There is a note indicating that your order was cancelled due to a possible security issue. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide any further information regarding this. Our team does recommend that you replace your order so that it may be approved. 

      As the same unit is now out of stock and no longer available on our website, we are unable to place a new order for you. We are also unable to advise when we will be getting new stock for this unit as it  is open box units do come and go and we are unable to predict when we will be getting more.

      Complaint: 22424139

      I am rejecting this response because:

      1- You state that the order was cancelled due to possible security issue, yet the chat customer support agent stated twice that it was cancelled due to fulfillment delay and the item going out of stock, I have also attached in my original complaint a transcript of the conversation as generated by your system, so which is it please?

      2- It is unclear, even through your response, what the possible security issue is/was. I have used my card with every major retailer in Canada without an issue, so what is it in Best Buy's system that causes this issue? And why isn't it addressed?

      3- Early yesterday (16th of October), one quantity of the item that I had previously ordered (and was cancelled) was back in stock at Best Buy. I quickly made an order (attached for your reference - order # 1019673428). And to avoid having the cancellation issue again, I called the Best Buy customer support and told them about my issue, the gentleman on the phone assured me that he will send the required forms to the verification team to ensure a timely processing of my order without any issues. During the time of the order, it was indicated that the item will arrive today (17th of October). So the 16th went by, and today is the 17th, and on Best Buy's website the order is still stated as In Progress. I called Best Buy phone support again and they stated the order has been flagged for manual verification and there's nothing they can do about it, hence the delay. At this point all I ask is to let my order through, and after that I sincerely hope Best Buy will investigate their security verification systems, and the competency of their staff in the security verification team as well as chat support.

      Sincerely,
      Ala

      Hi Ala,

      From what I can see on our end, there is a note on your order indicating there is a possible security issue and I am unsure why the chat agent would advise otherwise as there are no notes indicating this unit was cancelled due to backorder/out of stock status. I do apologize for any confusion this may have caused. Please note, we are also unable to provide any further information in regard to why or what the security issue is.

      Based on what I can see, your order under order number ********** has been verified and is in the process of being shipped out. You can follow the tracking updates by viewing Purolator tracking number 334991085666.

      Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

      Thanks,

      The Best Buy Team

      Bestbuy is performing unethical business practices by not shipping pre-orders on the promised release date. They have marked an item as shipped but not actually handed it to the carrier. The onus should not be on me to get a refund, the onus should be on Bestbuy to provide a refund.

      Hello Felix,


      Thank you for taking the time to contact the Best Buy Corporate team and for sharing your experience on the Better Business Bureau. My name is Queenie and I am emailing you from the Executive Resolution Team at Best Buy Canada head office. I am the highest level of escalation for this matter as I speak on behalf of our executives. I will be your main point of contact towards a resolution.

      I am sorry to hear that your order did not arrive on the release date on October 8, 2024. Good news is that I can see it was delivered to your address this morning on the 9th via Canada Post tracking # 1019435397484853. From what I can see in our system, the order was ready for pick up and was with the courier as of October 7th. The tracking was then updated on the 8th and 9th as it made its way to your address. I understand that it is still after the expected date which again, I sincerely apologize for.

      As a customer service gesture for the delay and inconveniences, I wish to offer you with a 12% discount off item which is equivalent to $10.80 + tax back to your original method of payment.

      Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any questions. Otherwise, I will look forward to hear from you on whether we may proceed with the 12% discount as a resolution.


      Thank you,


      Queenie
