Best Buy Warranty Service
I bought a video camera with an extended warranty 3 years ago which I turned in for repairs under their warranty service. I got a completion date of 12/26. Then when I followed up with Best Buy, no one could tell me the status and it took them 3 days to call me back to tell me the date is now Jan 3rd. When I checked on the 3rd, no one knew which repair center had the camera and never got an updated. Yesterday I stopped in the store and now they tell me a second part is on order and won't be in until the 18th. I was told if I need my video camera so badly, just go buy another one. Why did I buy a warranty was my reply? What a joke Best Buy can be with their service!

Re: Best Buy Warranty Service
Same thing happened with an old laptop I had years back. I think I had to call three or so times to actually track down what was happening to it. When I got it back, the AC adapter and battery were missing.
But they tracked down missing warranty information and replaced a lamp in my parents' DLP TV pretty quickly.
It's pretty hit and miss with them.

this is why Apple is nice in the products they offer, especially idevices. stop by apple store, have genius verify it's broke, walk out with a new one.
when i had to get my iphone replaced almost a year ago, the entire process took 20 minutes. including waiting in line
i have to buy a new laptop this year and thinking about doing it from Costco just for the chance that i might have to have it repaired
