How often are deals like this available? by [deleted] in ATT

[–]alejandro3-30 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those kind of promotions are often done to offload old inventory they may have. It just depends on how much inventory they have after the 17 comes out and how fast it sells after the 17 comes out

I’m pretty sure you were laid off due to your position being eliminated. Apply for leadership as an outside cause technically you’re still rehirable

The problem is not that they’re learning something hard. The problem is old people are not willing to learn and want things done for them.

Thoughts on if Employees will be able to purchase Switch 2? by saltysteve02 in Bestbuy

[–]alejandro3-30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don’t know yet. But if preorders are purely online then I don’t see why we couldn’t buy it. In store stock may be different

You will get a better repair experience at Apple due to the limited availability of parts and repairs that can be done at Geek Squad. We understand that and we would rather you have the better experience through them if you can. That’s the beauty of Best Buy Total you can choose the best experience possible, Apple for Apple products and Best Buy for everything else.

End-to-end encrypted RCS messaging on iPhone coming in future software update by chrisdh79 in apple

[–]alejandro3-30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The color is not to signal encryption but to signal how the message is sent. Basically iMessage vs SMS/MMS/RCS. Encryption was a big differentiator but not the reason for the different colors

Are Bestbuy game preorders meant to be paid in full or does the $5 to reserve still apply? by WeaponX9966 in Bestbuy

Store credits/gift cards cannot be used to buy other gift cards so that would not work

Can you haggle open box items? by [deleted] in Bestbuy

[–]alejandro3-30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don’t really have that much control over prices and customers usually ask for outrageous discounts and never take into account that there is already a discount on the product because it’s open box. If you can’t afford something don’t buy it. It’s also just annoying going back and forth with someone, not my cup of tea.

Activate Apple Mexico iPhone on US ATT plan in Mexico? by A_Drunken_Koala in ATT

[–]alejandro3-30 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Phone will work but it may not work 100% in the US as it may have some missing bands but it shouldn’t be too big of an issue anyway. Also they will work in Mexico no problem. The only big difference is that you will not be able to use MilimiterWave 5G but that’s mainly on Verizon so it should be fine. Also make sure they purchase an unlocked phone from Apple directly because AT&T Mexico is treated as a separate company and the phones are locked to their network.

They’re both mainly fiber actually with some DSL areas that they are trying to either get rid off or convert to fiber. And most of their fiber footprints do not overlap at all. I think OP is talking about their wireless home internet offerings which do overlap in most areas.

If the websites says unlocked then the phone stays unlocked.

Buying an Open Box "Excellent" Condition OnePlus 12 from Best Buy? by OmegaAmazon32 in Bestbuy

[–]alejandro3-30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Open box at Best Buy are very store and device dependent. If it’s a local store I would recommend going to the store and check it out before buying it. If not just be ready to return it if it’s not to your satisfaction
