I can't use my rewards because of $.02...really?!?!!

I wanted to use my $20 reward certificate, but the subtotal was $19.98 (the total without tax).  I was told that I needed to purchase another item to make the total over $20.  I asked if they could just override it because I didn't care about the $.02.  They again repeated that they couldn't and to just buy a candy bar or something.  I told them that I had no desire to buy something that I did not need or even want even if it was just $1 more.  It's the principle of being forced to buy something additional in the store for no reason.  Eventually, I bought something just to go over the $20 even though I probable won't use it.  Best Buy needs to start empowering their employees again.  Tieing employee's hands with stupid rules only leaves a content/happy customer feeling unsatisfied as they leave the store.  And yes, I was informed this happens all the time.  

Good morning jennifer_guest,
Thank you for taking time to sign up for the forum and post your feedback.  As RealGeorgeW made reference to, a purchases pre-tax total MUST equal or exceed the value of a My Best Buy™ certificate in-order to be redeemed.  A certificate does not have any actual cash value, so change would not be provided.  This aspect of the program terms has been in effect for as long as I can remember and is not something that we can override while at the register.
The intention of the program is benefit our customers and not to inconvenience.  I will make sure that your feedback is made visible to our My Best Buy™ program team and upper management so that it can be properly reviewed.  If changes to the program are to be considered, then the feedback our members provide will play a major role in the decision making.
My Best Buy™ Program Terms
Warmest Regards,

  • The voice that was on when I first set up my ipad came back on and now I have to double click to get into my apps and can't use my apps because her voice is always talking.  How do I make her voice go away and my IPAD work like it should.

    The voice that was on when I first set up my ipad came back on and now I have to double click to get into my apps and can't use my apps because her voice is talking.  How do I make the voice stop and my IPAD work again. 

    If you've turned VoiceOver on then see if triple-clicking the home button turns it off, and then change what Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home is set to.
    Otherwise, via 'the touch to select double-tap to activate' process you need to go into Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and turn it off
    The manual (http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad) also says that you should be able to switch voice-over off by connecting to your computer's iTunes :
    Turn VoiceOver on or off in iTunes: Select iPad in the iTunes sidebar. In the Options section of the Summary pane, click Configure Universal Access. Select VoiceOver, then click OK.
    So select Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary tab and set Seeing to Neither

  • IPad mini retina. After upgrade to iOS 8 and after to 8.0.2 I can't use my iPad because of wifi problem!

    After upgrade to iOS 8 and after to 8.0.2 I can't use my iPad because of wifi problem

    I am having a similar experience.  Since upgrading my Ipad 2 to iOS 8 and then iOS 8.0.2 I have not been able to use wifi consistently and it is very frustrating.  I can no longer watch any video because the wifi shuts down and won't come back without a complete reboot of the iPad. And forget about consistent bluetooth!  My ipad worked perfect before the "upgrade" to iOS 8 and beyond but now it is really worthless.  I have spent a lot of time and have tried every fix that I have read about online and NOTHING has corrected the problems created by the upgrade.  After spending a lot of time trying to resolve this I am certain the problem is the buggy "upgrade" but I feel like no one at Apple is listening.  I have always loved Apple products but this rotten Apple experience is making me think about exploring what else is out there.  Apple folks, I recommend getting this fixed quick or your stockholders won't be smiling!

  • All I have on my I pod touch is a white screen with multicolored lines going across screen.  What do I need to do.  I can't use I tunes because it says I have to have passcode and can't get screen to come up.  I have already tried holding both keys down.

    - See if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.. It bypasses the passcode (and erases the iPod)
    - Next try DFU mode

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • HT2736 Now, I've reset my iPad and I can't use my account because it says my account isn't used in itune store.

    I've already reedeemed my itune account and used it. Now, I've reset my iPad and I can't use my account because it says my account isn't used in itune store. What's the problem and how can I solve it? Please.

    I'm at home now and have my notes. Creative Cloud had been uninstalled before my practically brand new Dell was restored with the factory backup disks on 12-18 (a whole nother story). CS6 was installed AFTER the restore, so I don't see how any parts and pieces of Creative Cloud could still be on my hard drive.
    On 12-22 I received this Acrobat error: "A problem has occurred with the licensing of this product. Restart your computer and relaunch the product. Error: 130:11." Restarting did not help, so I uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat from my DVD, and it worked. I also updated it, just in case. I only turned the computer on a few times after that (not using Acrobat) until the 29th, when Acrobat started telling me I needed to renew my Creative Cloud subscription. That's when the Adobe techs told me I need to get a new email address because CS6 and Creative Cloud share the same email address. ALL of my Adobe products have been used with that same email.
    So tonight, with your advice, here's my update. CS6 listed in the Programs and Features control panel included Acrobat, but Acrobat was also listed separately. I uninstalled the one listed separately. I attempted to use the CC Cleaner Tool after that, but the only option for removing Creative Cloud programs was combined with CS6 programs (which I have already installed twice), so I opted to skip the CC cleaner.
    Of course after that, I had no Acrobat at all. I installed it again from my DVD and updated, and now I can launch Acrobat (same as on 12-22). So...wish me luck, and I'll let you know how it goes.
    Thanks,
    Mary Ann

  • I bought iphone4 in china,  and it broken when I was in USA. After I sending to your company. You send me a new phone, but this phone is locked phone. I can't use it. Because my sim card is from china

    I bought iphone4 in china, the ss number is 82044JAVA4S, and it broken when I was in USA. After I sending to your company. You send me a new phone, but this phone is locked phone. I can't use it. Because my sim card is from china, so I think you shoulu give me a unlocked one.

    I understand your frustration.
    Fortunately for you, you can make your new phone to work; but to do so, you have to call your Chineese carrier and give them the IMEI number found on the SIM card of your iPhone.
    They will then activate it and you will be able to use it.
    It's NOT a matter of locked/unloked phone; it's a matter of activating (pairing) a SIM card with a phone !
    Just call you Chineese carrier and have them register your SIM card with your new iPhone and you will be back in Business !

  • It said ont he box I was buying an iTouch 3G and now I can't upgrade to iOS5 because it's really a 2G, what kind of BS is this?

    It said ont he box I was buying an iTouch 3G and now I can't upgrade to iOS5 because it's really a 2G, what kind of BS is this?  I'm starting to hate Apple if the only way to upgrade is to buy a newer iTouch.

  • I can't use my Ipad because a pop up is asking me for my Apple ID password but when I write it and press Ok the pop up message keeps appearing! It doesn't let me do anything on my Ipad. I also have an Iphone and it is not doing this.

    I cannot use my Ipad because Im getting a pop up asking for my Apple ID password but when I enter it the pop up just keeps coming back and doesn't go away. It pops up every second it doesn't let me do anything on my Ipad not even turn on WiFi! The account and pasword are correct in fact I can use them fine on my Iphone. I have tried restarting my Ipad and turning it of, it doesn't work! What is happening and what can I do to fix it?

    Same problem for me.
    1. Cannot connect to wifi as icloud password pop up keeps appearing.
    2. tried deleting account. UNable to do so.
    3. tried resetting password by logging into apple id through desktop as mentioned in one of the responses in another thread. Unfortunately the apple id to be reset is the same as being prompted by icloud and hence unable to reset the same.
    Feel like breaking the **** ipad into bits. Stupid of apple to let such a bug in and not offer support !!

  • Can I use two rewards certificates in one transaction at a Best Buy store?

    Since you have to spend at least the value of the My Best Buy reward certificates before tax and shipping, I thought it would be best to issue the certificates in smaller amounts (maybe $5 instead of $15).  If I do that, and I have multiple certificates of $5, can I redeem them all toward a single purchase?  For example, if I want to buy a video game, can I apply multiple $5 reward certificates toward that purchase?
    Also, can My Best Buy reward certificates be used toward a pre-order of a game? 
    Are there any restrictions on what they can be used for, other than not being able to be used for Best Buy gift cards or e-gift cards?
    Thanks for answering my three questions about My Best Buy Rewards

    Hello kre1997,
    Those are three great questions!  Let me see if I can help provide answers.
    As long as the certificates are valid, you can apply two to a single purchase.
    A certificate can be applied to a pre-order, but only on BestBuy.com.
    The main exclusion is the purchase of gift card, but there are a couple others and you can those here.
    Thank you for posting to the forum, and please let me know if you have any other questions.
