EDU coupon + movers on Macbook *Talked to many people= nothing*

I tried to get my local best buy to stack the college student EDU coupon with the movers coupon on a macbook pro retina (SKU: 1581712) and they would not allow it. I tried to work with them and said ok, I will not use the EDU coupon, but only the movers coupon. But they did not allow me to use the movers coupon by itself because they said the macbook pros were a protected item.
Best Buy - Geary Blvd: Store 1125 - San Francisco, CA
I told them that many people have had this problem, but the social media specilists on the official forums always clarify the issue. However, it did not work.
Thank you! 

Hello derekc5475,
These are both great offers and I am sorry you were denied the ability to take advantage of both of them toward your purchase.
As poprex shared, and as you seem to be aware, these promotions can be stacked with one another. Additionally, the MacBook Pro is not a price protected item and the Movers Coupon should be able to be used toward the purchase as well.
I have already passed along the necessary communication to the Geary Blvd. Best Buy (store 1125) leadership in regards to your situation and these promotions. You should be able to revisit this store to take advantage of these offers, and I recommend asking for a manager to assist you in the transaction.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns, and feel free to provide me with an update after your visit.
Sincerest apologies,

  • Unable to stack movers and edu coupon. Disappointed!

    I went to the Bestbuy local store last night and ask them can I use both coupons in the same purchase. They refused that but when I'm trying to search in Bestbuy forum. The are many people have same issue with me. How can I let the manager know that possible? Who the manager can talk with? Thanks. Can I come to the store again and call someone to talk with the manager?

    Greetings,
    I am sorry to hear you were denied the use of these coupons toward your purchase. It would be my pleasure to work to better understand your specific situation and hopefully provide you with the opportunity to take advantage of these great offers.
    Recently, there were some changes made to the Movers Coupon program and the necessary steps to redeem this coupon. How did you obtain your Movers Coupon? Additionally, were you provided with any specific explanation by the store associate as to why they were declining the redemption and stacking of these coupons? In the event you hadn’t registered your Movers Coupon using the Activation Code here, this may have been the reason you were unable to use both at that time. Lastly, what was the item you were looking to purchase?
    I look forward to your response,

  • Re: Why can't I use a Movers Coupon on a MacBook

    I am now having the exact same issue with the Atlanta - Buckhead store.  I tried messaging Allan directly but haven't gotten a response.  Is there another Best Buy representative that can help me?

    Hi rcedmonds,
    I apologize for the apparent tardiness of my reply. The holidays are a busy time for the forum, so we appreciate your patience while waiting for assistance.  We do our best to respond to all of our customers as promptly as possible and in the order in which they are received. To make sure your inquiries are resolved in a timely manner, we ask that you publicly post here on the forum boards. In the event we require additional information from you to assist with your case, we will invite you to send a private message to us directly.
    Having said this, I'm disappointed to hear of your frustration at the Buckhead store when presenting your Movers Coupon. I love to use coupons whenever I can, and finding one for any electronic item can be difficult, so it’s regrettable we may have denied your request to use yours towards the purchase of a new MacBook.
    As you should be able to use the computer for the purchase, please know that I’ve already reached out to local leadership at the store and provided them with the necessary information about your coupon. At your earliest convenience, please visit the store to attempt this purchase again, as you shouldn’t have any future problems using this particular coupon on a MacBook computer.
    Thanks for posting,

  • Why can't I use a Movers Coupon on a MacBook

    I tried to buy a MacBook Pro at the Best Buy store in DeerPark (IL) but was told by a store associate that I could not use my movers coupon as the MacBook was already on sale. There is no mention of this exclusion in the coupon or BestBuy.com.
    I have seen people successfully stack a student discount and the movers coupon on MacBooks that were already on sale, but my local store says it can't be done.
    Can a Moderator here clarify the policy? As an Elie Plus member I would prefer to spend my money at Beat Buy, especially if I can use these coupons to offset the sales tax and get my final cost to what I would spend on Amazon without these hassles.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi BigDaddy,
    I’m sorry if this associate gave you incorrect information regarding our Movers Coupons. Movers Coupons can be used towards the purchase of a MacBook Pro that is on sale. You state this store is our store in DeerPark, IL, but I don’t see a store located in a town named DeerPark. Could the location of this Best Buy be in a different city?

    Kindly refer to Case Id No. 525700065 in India.I have talked to various people on my case for more than 5 hours ( Total talk time) The people give various different answers and aim really fed up now. What do i do?
    Many apple phone users are especially fed up with RSGI Communication , Erandwana, Pune, Maharashtra, India.
    Their service report No. 36679.
    Allthough Mr Punit ( Technical Dept. Apple.) had requested RSGI to chance the device, still RSGI said they do not have the device ( I phone 5, white ,16GB) in stock.
    Today when we contacted them they said they won't be able to replace OR order to Apple unless and until we do not keep the device with them for 3 days.
    Mr Deepak of Technical Dept Apple was contacted who's telephonic Transript as proof is available with us.

    Who exactly are you addressing your screed to
    There are  no Apple Staff on this forum ,it is User to User

  • How many people work on drivers @ creati

    I was just wondering ...
    Even the big NVIDIA Company said a few months ago that they did not had enough man power to create nice Vista Drivers in a short time frame. They just had a few progammers that were busy with thousands of other things and if they had some free time, they worked on drivers.
    ----------------- NVIDIA: ---------------------
    An official from Nvidia, a leading designer of system chipsets and graphics processors, admitted that the company had underestimated resources it needed to develop proper drivers for Windows Vista, but said the issues would be shortly resolved. Besides, the company has outlined its priorities when developing drivers for the new operating system (OS).
    But even though the initial priority of Nvidia when developing drivers were content developers, right now the company has the priority of deli'vering stable drivers for Vista to end-users. It is remarkable that Nvidia even put performance of its drivers on the second place.
    This is exactly what I would love to see from Creative Labs!
    After the bad feedback about poor driver support Nvidia officially said SORRY for this and hired some more guys that work on drivers all the time. And now it seems to be fine again. Nvidia is back on road again and relasing good drivers every few weeks. This was a response that I liked to see. It's not good for a big company like this to get so many bad feedback and reviews.
    Same for Creative. They probably don't get it yet but their poor support and fact that it takes more then a half year to get another bugged driver released is not good for them. People talk bad about them for months now and many people dont want to get CL Products anymore.
    I am playing with crackling issues since more then a half year now and I would like to get rid of it. I payed more then 400 for my Elite Pro Card and the drivers are simply not as good as they should be.
    Isn't it time for Creative to do something with their driver support Shouldn't they do the same like Nvidia or ATI and get some more people working on drivers
    The fact that it takes around a half year for a little driver upgrade shows me that there can not be more then -2 guys working on drivers in some of their free time.
    I am a programer myself, already coded drivers and I know its not easy so I dont want to blame them. But in my opionion its simply not enough. I think more people should work on drivers and they should have a higher priority.
    I have my own community forums ... a year ago everyone said "Get a XFI Card - best one!". Today everyone says "Don't get XFI - nice hardware but bad drivers".
    This should not be ... its bad for CL so please CL ... do something about it and change something! Other big companies already did it! If you dont do it this will have many bad bad results for you! Nobody wants to buy your product anymore if you can't create nice drivers for it!

    As a gamer, having capable hardware is a must at all times. When i built my new system recently the only thing that traveled from my old system to the new build was my sound card, the X-Fi. Amazingly to my surprise all my other hardware had vista x64 software/drivers available. Sadly enough i must say that i really liked this card and how it ran on my older system, it was because creative had so called vista drivers i went ahead and installed it (vista). Unfortunately i am too far in vista with my other apps, work to go back and too be honest i like it. I am getting the point where i am very close to getting rid of this card, reason being i can only run my games in software sound mode which is majorly sucking now. There are a few cards which i cant mention bc the mods will just remove the name and while they already have mature vista drivers the lack of EAX 3.0+ is whats holding me back a few more weeks. Interestingly its also creative's fault that no one else can use EAX 3.0+.
    To answer your question a bit more directly, creative probably has no more than 2-3 ppl working on drivers at any one time. And until recently that probably did the job fine, unfortunately times have changed OSs are more complex, driver writing isn't what it used to be and creative needs to get their but in gear..Maybe even let us know whats going one every once in a while. Because like i said it before and will say i again, once valuable customers are lost they usually don't come back even if they develop a superior product.

  • C'mon Apple! So many people having problems with their email after upgrading to Yosemite. Sort it out!

    This is driving me mad! Uploaded Yosemite and my email was fine for a few days then bam! My virgin.net account goes down and cannot send emails from it at all, now a couple of weeks later cannot receive emails on that account at all! Which is not good seeing as I have two thousand beautiful expensive photographers business portfolio Z cards with that email address on it! So many people having the same problem so obviously its to do with the software, I thought by now programs would be tested to the max before being released?

    I have had the problem with Mail not connecting to one of my ISPs, and could not find a fix other than allowing insecure authentication - which I am very reluctant to do.
    Today I was at work, using my MacBook Air, and I noticed that it was connecting OK. So at home I rechecked my iMac, but it was still not connecting. Then I compared the settings in Mail > Preferences > Advanced, and saw that they were different.
    - the working account on my MacBook Air: port 995, Use SSL checked
    - the failed account on my iMac: port 110, Use SSL unchecked.
    I checked the Use SSL box, and the port instantly changed from 110 to 995, and the connection succeeded.
    Try this and see whether it helps - it may simply work with this particular ISP?

  • Knowing how many people is connected to my airport express

    I have an airport express and is encrypted how ever I would like to know how many people is connected to it, is this posible?

    I would like to see things like who's connected to my airport express, and whether the airport has been able to get an IP address from the DSL modem, and so on.
    Can the airport management tools do this? I tried installing the version linked from www.apple.com/support/airport, but got the error "This application requires Airport 3.4 or later." However, I've installed Airport 4.2 already.
    Is the shareware Airport Monitor Utility the only way to go for this? I had a hard time interpreting a lot of the information it was giving me...
    thanks in advance for the reply,

  • Not many people complain about Verizon's site or is it only I that has problems?

    Almost every single thing that can be done in verizon's site returns an error and suggests calling instead.  Not many people seem to complain about it here though, so it's either me the only one having problems or that people don't care?. When things worked 1 or 2 years ago it used to be great not having to call to change small things; I don't like contacting customer service by phone.

    Things are always changing in the world of computers.  In addition to the mishmash of companies/systems, think of how many computers they must be using to do all those things and in so many different states.
    There are several threads located elsewhere on the forums talking about issues.  Some people have been successfull calling the ECenter number.   Search ECenter 877 and you should find one of those threads.

    i have lost my iphone 5 the day before yesterday,and have tried many ways to find it, but in vain. i wandered if there are some useful solutions to such kinds of issues, because lots of people have similar terrible experiences. in china many people have lost ihones, which means you also expose all of your information you have saved in iphones. this is dangerous,because criminals can take advantage of those information. i think apple should talke more measures to stop the thieves from using apples so easily.

  • Quicktime Update Seems to Have Killed iChat for Many People

    I keep seeing the same problem from so many people after the latest Quicktime update...
    Everyone tries the 443 port setting, the Quicktime/Streaming speed setting, Internet sharing setting, etc. but something is definitely wrong, because I suddenly have two friends who now can't video when it was working fine before the update. And neither is using a router, so it removes all the potential router setting issues.
    There seems to be many people on this board with the same issue.
    BTW, the Apple "genius" actually suggested it was probably the camera that was broken, after they walked my friend through all the standard settings (the camera works fine). But I'm not going to bring that up because I'm reading A New Earth and that's just my own ego talking.
    ANYWAY -- Ralph Johns? You've been dealing with this a lot - doesn't it seem like more than a coincidence that all these iChat issues keep recurring? Or am I insane?

    It is more likely the Time Machine and Airport update than Quicktime.
    This update changes the OS level although it still calls itself 10.5.2 it can not be "repaired" by installing the Combo version over the top. (you get and error message that the Installer and OS don't suit each other)

  • 2 apple ID's to 1.   With so many people having the same issue of 2 legitimate accounts by accident or whatever, why would Apple not let us merge them into one?  It would  simplify our lives and I don't see why Apple won't allow this.

    2 accounts to 1. I was so anxious to set up my new iPad at the store that I accidentally set up a new Account.  With so many people requesting to merge 2 legitimate accounts that they own, I can't understand why Apple is refusng to allow us to do so!  This would simplify our lives so much.  I have just switched over to Apple products and if I could at least set up both accounts on my iPad it would help -without signing in and out.  I could do this on my android.

    I have had numerous issues. Originally, I couldn't get video to work at all in Leopard (worked fine in Tiger). I just recently did all of the following things:
    Set QT STreaming to 1.5
    Set bandwidth (in iChat) to 500kbps (Comcast)
    Deleted iChat prefs and ichatagent prefs
    Set parallels network to "host only" (was on shared)
    Reset PRAM
    Reset security port to 443 (in iChat prefs, server settings)
    Restart iChat (obviously)
    Right now, all of my buddies are currently offline, but I did test with apple's auto-bots and interestingly, I'm getting video to work with appleu3test01 and appleu3test03, but I get the same connection problem as before with appleu3test02 ("There was a communication error during your chat"). I'm curious what's different about this bot's settings. I'll report more when I get to test with a real person.
