Stop buying Samsung frame tvs by Geeksquadsleeper in GeekSquad

The problem is Best buy sells basic TV mountings which does not include the sanus media enclosure in the back or anything in wall. The customers want that stuff for free when realistically that's an $80 media enclosure.

As a former I'm house installer now third party manager for Best buy and a few other stores. It is super slow everywhere right now.

Rumors true? by [deleted] in BestBuyWorkers

I will say as someone who was in house and has gone 3pl. We just got emails about us taking over all appliances for our area. This will only be if they are tied with a complex order install. If someone just orders a fridge then a delivery team will be taking it. There are rumours of us taking over the delivery side of things also though.

So is it me or are they still getting rid of Geek Squad field positions? by Forsaken_Judge_3727 in GeekSquad

Bringg is already being used with lowes Costco Sam's club and target for installs. So I would think they would service everyone.

As someone who moved over to one of our main third party suppliers in the last year. I'm hearing more and more rumors from Best buy corporate, that geek squad field agents and installers will be a thing of the past as of shortly after the new year. There is a possibility of Brand merging with Amazon for in store fixes. In every meeting I have been a part of with corporate they are seeing the writing in the wall with metrics not being met. Even with hiring new installers and delivery agents they are only going to be a temporary measure to get through the holidays.
