Questions? come see us or visit Geek Squad. Best part is the 3 year Black Tie costs the same as 3 year Apple Care. We also give you a free replacement battery and ac adapter. If you crack your screen, spill coffee on your macbook pro, drop your computer, your S.O.L under Apple Care. Im sorry if anyone here has had a bad experience at any Best Buy in their area, but I guarantee that you didn't get that experience in my store.įor the record, WE DO give not only the education discount but also the free iPod touch 8gb for college students while the promotion is going on at the Apple store.Īs far as Markb3d's comments, I would love to know what services and offers we don't include or surpass? Apple Care doesn't include accidental damage protection which Geek Squad Black Tie does. I am a computer specialist at Best Buy Store #1454 in Portland, OR.
If a Best Buy teams with a local University, there might be an exception to the rule, but youd have to ask them.
Ok let me put a stern end to the misinformation here! The Student discount normally is only applicable if you are a fulltime college/university student via your Apple Online Store.
