This location has wonderful customer service. It is best to go at peak shopping times, as it seems, they have their most knowledgeable employees working at this time. Clean and well organized

All I needed was a power cord for my laptop while I was traveling because I had left mine at home. They wanted $90 for the thing, I think not, I left. I knew it would be higher than anywhere else because everything they have is over priced, but $90 is insane. And they wont let ANYONE in without a mask. Its private property, they can do that, and I have a choice, I will go somewhere else.

Veni, vidi, vici. Came in store with my home work well done. I knew exactly what I want, I asked for assistance, an assistant checked the item code and thats it. 15 minutes at all, my tv was in my car. They asked if my transportation is fit for the size of my package. It was.

Shoutout to Grant! I walked in all panicked because the sound on my laptop stopped working and I needed it to teach a live course. He figured out that it was just a simple setting that needed updating. I restarted and made sure everything was working properly before I left. he had a positive attitude and was happy to help . Promote him !

Maybe its too much to ask for a nice instore atmosphere nowadays. Majority of staff had the I hate my job and I hate being here attitude. Not very friendly or helpful. Only 1 person helped me, a young lady who was setting Samsung phones on their Verizon display. She was the only one who didnt mind me asking questions and helped me with the answers.

Im guessing they were short staffed but we had to wait around for over 30 mins just to get an open box item down so we could go buy it. But once we finally got someone everything else was great. Also service dog friendly

I use to love this BestBuy but now I hope another place opens. They are so rude. The cashier is rude and doesnt even greet you. The manager just walked right passed me without saying anything. The greater was texting on his phone and the associates walk around like zombies like they are ready to go homeAnd their knowledge of the products are awful. They need new management immediately!

Review №34

Employees are unaware of the product placement in the store. Associates are friendly but useless. The store is completely unorganized and misplaced. Items in one place but not another. I helped myself today by moving the item I needed the day before to the proper place with all the other like items. Why on earth are there multiple spots for the same items?!? Impossible to locate what youre looking for in this store.

They were very friendly and helpful. I went right to were he said the chargers were at. My only thing I couldnt tell where to check out but I followed someone until they asked me to come to a certain register. I am not from Louisiana but they were very nice. I told them guy they needed a big sign saying check out he laughed. I got a little lost.

I would like to first state that i love going to Best Buy’s because they always have the products that i need for the line of work that i do.I usually have an awesome experience shopping at Best Buy, how ever, today i hade a very unpleasant experience. I was in there buying a couple of things for work an the gentleman that was helping me was very nice, and as he was checking me out i had a issue with my Best Buy card not taking the transaction so he had called some one over there to assist us with the problem.He was then assisted with a female who then asked me, “do i pay my bills on time”? I feel like I was not treated properly, and furthermore feel that was not the way to address a customer that is having a transaction issue. She did not even try to see why it was not going through an the whole time it was because i was out of state an Best Buy CC was denying the transaction. I purchased a MacBook Pro plus two accessories which costed over $3000 dollars, But due to my experience i decided to return the products due to the way i was treated. I felt humiliated and belittled.I will never put my self in this position again, therefor, i will not be utilizing best buy in Lake Charles, Louisiana! I will share my experience with others.

They are very scared of Corona. Have to wear a mask unless you have health problems. People sitting at the door asking you to wear a mask. They even give you one. Prices are high compared to sams club.

If you happen to be anywhere in the Lake Charles area and need any electronics, I can not speak highly enough about PJ his knowledge about the products is off the charts and his willingness to help and demonstrate the products made us feel certain we purchased the correct items and slated the correct items for future purchases.I cant wait to BUY MORE electronics from him .

Me and my friend went in to buy him a laptop his card kept declining due to him being from out of state so the guy got who i think was the manager. The lady came up and said to him dont you pay your bills on time. He spent 3000 in the store even though she was hella rude to him. Not even an apology. I wouldnt have spent not one dime in there but he needed the mac book.

The prices are ok, but the customer service was horrible. I stood there waiting for help. They all walked around me. The minute I went in my purse for my phone someone came stand behind me. I was taught if you think someone is stealing customer service usually stops it, not standing behind them. I was in there November 9th. And was very offended

Review №77

The new Covid 19 measures like having to schedule getting help isnt cool. But I can get what I need for about the same prices as I can online for some items. Price matching however is far too strict. The same item with the same exact specs with a slightly different part number and they wont match. I think they get the manufacturers to give them a different model number or something. Walmart does something similar.

Great Best Buy super nice employees. Four stars because this was my first time not one person asked if we needed help even when we kept circling the same area looking for the item we wanted and there were 5 employees standing there talking. It was just different when they usually ask if you need help finding something. Other than that it is a great store.

Ordered more RAM for my laptop from my local Bestbuy because they had 1 in stock. Went there to pick up my order and waited 15 minutes while the warehouse looked for it. They ended up refunding me because it was never found. Lake Charles store. People complain about amazon taking everyone’s business but amazon is good at what they do. I knew better

They have had my iPhone 11 since October 7th. I paid for Apple Care to have it replaced. They have not followed up with me at Geek Squad, nor made efforts to solve the problem with Apple. The Geek Squad said, and I quote “we’d be mad too! We hate Apple and Apple Products!”
