Can't create a best buy account to order electronics

I have been trying for days to order an ipad with no luck.  The website requires a best buy account when ordering electronics.  Everytime I try to create an account it gives an error and says to try again later.  I have emptied the cart, cleared the cookies, rebooted, done live chat, and even called best buy.  Please help!!!!

Hello apol,
I am sorry to hear you are having difficulty creating an account on BestBuy.com. I hope this hasn’t inconvenienced you in any way.
If you would like, I could help create an account on your behalf. All I would need is for you to send me a private message with the following information:
·         Your first and last name
·         Your email address
·         Your zip code
·         Your phone number
·         Your My Best Buy member ID (this should be located on a receipt from a store purchase)
After I receive this information from you, I will go ahead and try to create your account. Once this is completed, I will send you a private message containing your password so you may then login to your account and reset your password to the one of your choosing. You may do this from your Account Home page on BestBuy.com.
Regards,

  • I am locked out of my account and can't use my Best Buy points

    Hi,
    I am an Elite Plus customer and really upset with Best Buy as they decided to lock me out of my account due to an audit and I can't use in inspite of having $2000 in my account that I bank. I called Best Buy 3 days ago after receiving an email that my account had been updated and they decidid to do an audit and lock my account without informing me. I keep getting "check in 24hrs" message since 3 days and it doesn't let me issues certificates. I found out after calling Reward Zone that my account was updated as I was re-enrolled in the Elite Plus program. I keep getting a response from Reward Zone that corporate is auditing my account for fraudulent activity. While I appreciate that, I don't expect them to shut me off my account for more than 3 days when I need to purchased items using my $2000 worth of banked points. This is RIDICULOUS and noone from Reward Zone wants to take ownership of this issue. I just spoke to the manager named Kenya Case ID: {edited per forum guidelines} and all she did was directed me to the website and asked me to email corporate. This is complete NONSENSE and expect a professional company like Best Buy to figure out their processes and not shut out customers from their program without informing them. I am hoping that someone from the right department can pick this up and resolve this issue as I need to purchase items this weekend and am sick of seeing the "check back in 24 hrs" error.
    I am a loyal customer of Best Buy but things like this makes me reconsider my decision of buying things from Best Buy again.

    Good afternoon VJ, and thank you for your patience,

  • Can I creat an new iCloud account and make it the primary one for my backups and buy extra iCloud storage for it?  Thank you

    Can I creat an new iCloud account and make it the primary one for my backups and buy extra iCloud storage for it?  Thank you

    Hey Hindfromlondon,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.  Since you are posting here, I take it you already have an Apple ID.  
    You can setup that Apple ID to work with iCloud.  See:
    Set up your Apple ID for iCloud and iTunes - Apple Support
    And you usually want to stick with one Apple ID as having multiples can cause confusion (especially with purchases).
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support
    What is an Apple ID?
    An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services. You don't have to create a new account for each service—just use your Apple ID.
    For a complete list of all of the places you can use an Apple ID, see Where do I use an Apple ID.
    and further down:
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs. 
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.
    Regarding iCloud storage check out
    iCloud storage upgrades and downgrades - Apple Support
    I encourage you to read all about it as there's lots of information out there.
    Take care,

  • Cannot receive verificati​on email for My Best Buy account

    I have a My Best Buy account and the Gamers Club Unlocked. I have created an account, but a verification email will not send to my email address. I cannot change the email address either, because it says an email has been sent to verify the account. Please help me verify my account.

    Hi jhassels,
    Welcome to the Best Buy forum, and thank you for posting!
    I attempted to look over your My Best Buy account using the email address you registered with the forum; however, I was unable to find an active account.  With that being said, it is likely that the email address we have on file is not up-to-date.  Please send me a private message with the below information, by clicking on the blue button within my signature, and I will see that I can do to help link your accounts.

  • Unable to link My Best Buy account

    I'm unable to link my accounts.  I've had issues with my account before which required a customer service rep to fix.  I can look my account number up using my email address and phone number, but when I try to link my account using the same member id and phone number, it tells me my information is incorrect.  Can you help?

    Good morning garaux,
    Welcome to the Best Buy forum, and thank you for posting!
    I used the email address you registered with the forum to review your account information, and it appears that we may have multiple phone numbers on file for you.  That could explain why you are having a difficult time linking your BestBuy.com and My Best Buy accounts.  To ensure your information is up-to-date, I will be sending you a private message.  You can check your private messages by logging into the forum and clicking on the envelope icon located at the top of the page.

  • Trying to change my best buy account number on best buy cc to the one i actually use

    I recently was approved for a best buy credit card and when I applied they did not attach my old my best buy account number so it automatically issued a new one. I know my membership number and when i click on the link that allows me to link a different my best buy membership, it says the member id does not exist. I try looking it up using the information on my best buy and it also says it cannot find it. I should have points on my old account, but I cannot access the account to find out if I have enough for a certificate yet. Help!

    Greetings kjacks58, and welcome to the Best Buy forum,
    Before you try linking your accounts (BestBuy.com and My Best Buy™), I would suggest we look into merging your two My Best Buy™ accounts.  The new account that is associated with your Best Buy credit card would be made the primary account, and any active points/certificates in the secondary account would transfer over to the primary following the merge.
    With that being said, I will need some additional information from you before I can look into performing a merge.  Please send me a private message with the information below and I will see what I can do to help.  You can send a private message by clicking on the blue button in my signature that is labeled "Private Message."

  • I have multiple apple phones on one account  can i create a new iTunes account for other iphone

    I have multiple iphones on one billing account as well as itunes.  Can I create a separate itunes account for other iphone?

    You don't need to create two separate libraries.
    If you want to sync different content onto each device, select the device in iTunes, select the tabs across the top and sync what you want.
    To make it easier, create different playlists for each device and sync only those playlists.

    Can I create a 2nd iTunes account on one PC that caters for two seperate devices for different people?

    For what reason would you do that?
    Simply connect the device, select the content desired to sync and sync.
    iTunes remembers the sync profile per device.

  • I can not create a new user account on eprint

    i can not create a new user account on eprint. I have been trying for over an hour and it repeats telling me that my email addresses are not entered correctly, however they match. ? 

    I have tried to create an account via ePrintCenter and it seems that the published application has several flaws in interpreting the provided input.
    1) In the Filed for last Name I enter my last name, which consist of only Alph Characters. The form however thinks that there is some sort of special character and rejects my Input.
    2) E-Mail address. is not identical; OK, so I do a quick OCR on the E-Mail and guess what they are identical. Again the form Fails to recognize this.
    3) Enter a password (2 Fields) and a third is displayed which is marked as "*required" but is not labeled as to what the required info could possibly be. Or is it a 3 password confirmation box, who knows.
    All I know is that a simple registration is a major pain with this HP site.
    Any Help as to how to alleviate this would of course be greatly appreciated.

    This should help you out after  you have created the new user account. You are trying to make it much more complex than it needs to be. Just follow the directions in:

    iOS 5 & iCloud Tips: Sharing an Apple ID With Your Family

  • How can I create a new iCloud account and transfer my apps?

    I'm sharing an iCloud and iTunes account and want to have my own. Can I create a new iCloud account and transfer my contact list? If I keep the existing iTunes account with the new iCloud acct, can I reload my apps without purchasing them again? I understand I can create a new iTunes acct afterwards.

    OK, so you can create a separate Apple ID for yourself that you use for your Messages, iCloud, Mail, FaceTime, etc. and keep the one that you have your Apps on as your iTunes "Family" Account.
    Before you set up your new Apple ID, be sure to delete your iCloud account from your device: Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the account. Save your Contacts on your phone so you can merge them with your new iCloud account. Your notes, and Photos will still be on your old iCloud account, but if you want to keep any of your photos on your new iCloud account, it would be a good idea to import all of your photos to your computer first, so you can selectively download them to your device. (Note: only your Photo Stream will go away when you delete your iCloud account. Your Camera Roll will stay in place. It's just a good idea to back up that Camera Roll to a computer or to your new iCloud account immediately once you have set it up.
    You then would set up a brand new Apple ID for you under Manage your Apple ID: Apple - My Apple ID
    Once you get it set up, go into your devices and sign off the following:
    Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, click on your "Family" Apple ID and Sign Out
    Settings>Facetime, click on your Apple ID and sign out
    You will leave your "Familiy" Apple/iTunes ID signed on on the iTunes & App Store, becasuse you willl continue to share your iTunes account with the family. Here is a little more info about using two Apple IDs:
    Using your Apple ID for Apple services
    Once you have your new ID set up, go back into Messages and FaceTime and sign back in with your new ID
    Also, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your new ID, and be sure to "Merge" your contacts into your new iCloud account.
    Post back with any questions!
    Cheers,
