Re: College Discount coupons not received

Ive been trying to receive the promo code for the $150 off the surfacepro 3 as well. I have verified my email address and even received a coupon email thing but it was only for a laptop and 2 in 1. Also, when I try to get to it from the "college student deals" thing under the deals tab on the website and click on the "$150 off surface pro 3" icon it just takes me right to the page where you can compare and add to cart.
How can I get the promo code for the particular item I want?

Hello sierrabrack-
Getting an extra $150 off a Surface Pro 3 is nothing to sneeze at, so I can understand your desire to make sure that you received that coupon as well.  It’s definitely not normal that you received the other two coupons with getting that third one.
I’m not sure that we can resend these coupons to you, but I will certainly look into it, to do so, I need you to send me a Private Message with the .edu email address you used to sign up.  You can send me a Private Message by logging into the forum and clicking on the button across from my name on this post.
Thanks for connecting with us!

  • College student coupons not received after 3 days of waiting

    I signed up in store on Sunday, 10/5/2014 to receive college student coupons. They have yet to arrive. I got the message to confirm my address, which I did. I have also since gotten some email spam from Best Buy, so I know that those messages aren't being held up by my university.
    I need assistance, please. I have signed up in the past for Best Buy college student coupons (different university, different address) and I didn't have any problem. Got the coupons right there in the store while I was waiting. 
    I had to go ahead and purchase the laptop that I needed and the store manager said I could return with the coupons to get a refund for the extra money I paid.
    I'm extremely frustrated with this. Your email spam is no problem and I'm aware of all your current sales, but the coupons mysteriously are unable to be sent? Come on.
    Any help here would be more than appreciated. I've been patient, but this is a bit ridiculous. 

    Hi bunnicula,
    Being that you needed to purchase this laptop in advance of receiving the coupons, I can completely understand you wanting to receive the coupons as soon as possible. I am looking into this for you, and as soon as I have more information I will post back to this thread. I am assuming the .edu email address used to request these coupons is the one you used to register for this forum?
    Thanks for posting,

  • Student Discount Code Not Received after 24 hours of confirming my email

    I signed up for a Student Discount with my .edu email account and got an email within a few minutes asking me to confirm my email address. Its been over 24 hours since I confirmed my email and I still haven't received the discount code. I have also:
    - checked the spam / trash / junk folders of my email
    - checked with the IT admin that the email wasn't blocked
    Please help!

  • College Student coupon never received

    I purchased a Mac Book Pro for my granddaughter to start college.  I had planned to purchase it at the Apple Store but we took a chance that the Best Buy in Edwardsville, Il (an hour drive) would have the one she wanted.  We waited over half an hour in the store (with multiple attempts) to get the "College Student Deal" coupon without success.  We had to leave and I asked if we could purchase the computer and she could try to receive the coupon at home and bring it in for a credit. The clerk gave us two weeks.  She never received the coupon in her edu e-mail.  She confirmed her e-mail address with the school IT dept and they told her they think the problem is on Best Buy's end.   I have called Best Buy Customer Service  three times (with long waits and many transfers) without resolution to this problem.   I was told by one of the Customer Service representatives (in technical terms) that it may be being blocked and that she would never receive it.  I feel I have invested a great deal of time in trying to resolve this issue so yesterday, my day off, I went back to the Best Buy store to talk to a manager.  I was given instructions to go to this site for help.  Yet another diversion.  I am beyond frustrated at having spent so much time and effort on such a simple issue and am wondering if this is a method to discourage the customer.  When I purchased my oldest grandchild's Mac I did not encounter this problem - but I did not purchase it at Best Buy. Reading the other posts on this site I see that this is a common problem and wonder why.  

    Hi vlb,
    First of all, best of luck to your granddaughter as she starts college! It's definitely a big step, and making the transition from outlined curriculum to more self-guided study can prove to be a challenge.
    It sounds like you and your granddaughter have both tried a few different measures so far, so some additional research may be necessary to determine why she may not have received an acknowledgement message by now. Please make sure to check your private messages when you can by signing into the forum and then clicking on the letter icon in the upper right-hand corner of the page.

    Hello cmorgan,
    Thank you for posting to the forum and for sending me a private message! Our College Student Deal coupons are a great way for our customers to save a bit of money when purchasing devices they may find significantly helpful with their studies. I am sorry to hear that you have had difficulties receiving these coupons.
    To clarify, have you been able to confirm your student email address via the confirmation email that you should have received prior to receiving the coupons?

  • Not receiving college student discount code.

    I signed up for college student discount weeks ago and still have not received any deals. i am trying to buy the ipad mini retina but still have not gotten an email about a code

    Hello cleebot-
     I was disappointed to read that, even though you signed up weeks ago you have yet to get an email with Best Buy College Deals. When you are signing up for the College Student Deals Coupon, there are a couple of things to consider.
    Frist of all, register your college email address ending in .edu. Within approximately 24 hours, you should receive an email with a link to verify your address.
    If you did not receive the email I recommend that you do the following:
    ·         Check your junk email folder or any folders that you use as part of your personal email filtering rules.
    ·         Contact your school's IT department to verify that they have not changed their email filtering criteria.
    You should expect the email with the discount within 72 hours of verifying your address.
    If you have already taken these steps, but have not received an email with the featured deals, please let me know and I will be more than happy to continue seeking the best way to assist you.
    Thank you,

  • Not Receiving Student Discount Coupons

    I signed up for the student discount and received an initial set of coupons that were only good for one day.  I signed up again several days ago (more than 72 hours) and have not received any coupons.  I received the confirmation email to confirm enrollment and nothing else.  I am getting incredibly frustrated as I would like to purchase a computer through best buy but also want to receive the best price as things are tight being a college student.  Can anyone help me?!

    Hi awoods816,
    We generally issue new student coupons each month. The most recent ones expired on 11/1, and new ones have not yet been issued. When the next set of coupons are available, you will receive them in your email as it sounds like you have already signed up and completed the confirmation process. Keep an eye out in the coming week or two.
    Thanks for your post & best of luck in school!

  • Please Help!! Can not receive College student coupons emails for waiting a long time

    Hello,
    I can not receive the college student coupon emails after I signed in for a while. And I tried a couple of times, but it still won't work. I check the solutions which you guys post on the Forum, but it won't work for me. So I really need someone help me please!! Thank you so much! Because I saw you post a good deal for ipad right now, and I don't want to miss it this time....
    Sincerely,
    V

    Hello V,
    The College Student Deals program certainly has some great offers and I would do almost anything to get a good deal on an iPad! Sorry to hear you haven’t received an email with these coupons. I would like to help you take advantage of those deals!
    Using your email address you provided here on the forums, I was able to see that you received some assistance in this matter today. Is that correct? Please let me know if you still need help with this and I will gladly look into it for you further.
    In the meantime, you may try checking your Junk/Spam folders in your .edu email address if you haven’t done so already. Also, I recommend speaking to your school’s IT department to see if they have been blocking the emails altogether, as this has been known to happen by certain schools. I should be able to supply you with the email address they are sent from if you need it for reference.
    I look forward to your response,

  • Not receiving student discount code

    A couple of weeks ago, I signed up for the student discount code with an edu email address and verified my information with the email that was sent from Best Buy afterwards.  I have not received the code yet.  Is there something else that I need to do?  Thanks!

    Hey there turnagek,
    Welcome to the forum! The college student deals coupons are a great way to purchase the technology you need for school. It sounds like you have taken the necessary steps to receive yours. 
    Usually the new deals coupons are sent around the beginning of the month and expire a few weeks later. It is possible that the coupons for November have expired and you should be receiving the new December student deals. I would suggest waiting until the beginning of December and if you still do not receive them, let me know, and I'll look into how we can get those coupons sent out to you. 
    Thank you for visiting the forum, and please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. 
    Regards,

  • It's been 6 months and i still haven't received ANY student discount coupons...​.

    I signed up about 6 months ago to receive student coupons. I used a valid student email ending in .edu and it says email accepted. Haven't received any emails. I've checked spam folder and everything. I signed up again a few days ago and still no emails. None.
    What's up with that!?

    Hello Julesbrasil,
    I was disappointed to read that, after confirming your email, you didn't receive your College Student Deal coupons. Six months is a long time to wait for them, so I’m glad you reached out to us for assistance.
    After pulling up your Best Buy account using the email address you provided when registering for the forum, I see that you reached out to another one of our support teams for assistance earlier today, and they were able to resend you a link containing your student coupons. If you have not received that though, please send me a private message with your contact information and your .edu email address so I may see what our options may be from here. Please know you may send me this message by logging into the forum and clicking on the blue button included in my signature below.

    Thank you

    Hi powerhousechops & eXTechno,
    Welcome to the My Best Buy Gamers' Club Unlocked program! It typically only takes 2-3 business days for welcome packets to arrive via e-mail, so it's odd that neither of you would have received yours by now.
    I've sent you both some information, so please make sure to check your private messages when you can. To check your PMs, simply sign into the forum and then click on the letter icon in the upper right-hand corner of the page.

  • College Student Deals Not Working - MacBook Pro

    I went to my local bestbuy store to buy a MacBook Pro. I asked the sales associate if they offered a discount for college students because I am buying this laptop for college. He said yes you can get $150 off your MBP and directed me to "www.bestbuy.com/studentdeals". I signed up with my ".edu" email and received an email requesting confirmation. I confirmed my email and waited for the coupon deals for about 2 hours in store, but ended up going home because I didn't receive email. I called customer service multiple times and they were no help either. Any idea what the problem is? Any solution??

    Hello Singh/ae1222-
    Given how cash-strapped most college students typically are, every little bit of savings you can get will definitely help!  I’m sorry to hear that you have not received your email with the details and coupons for our student deals.
    While usually those emails will show up with an hour or two, there are times where it can take up to 24 hours as the email address does go through a verification process.  In addition, some schools have filters in place on their email addresses that block marketing-type emails such as this from coming through. 
    If you haven’t received your email, I would recommend checking with the IT department at your school to see if this is an issue.  Otherwise, you can also send me a Private Message with your .edu email address and I can see if we can check on it for you.
    Sincerely,

  • College Discount

    I signed up for the college discount three days ago and never got a confirmation email or anyting, please help.

    Hello kcarlson,
    I am sorry if you haven’t been able to take advantage of this awesome promotion due to not receiving the emails that should follow your registration. I would be happy to try and help you troubleshoot this problem so you can get those deals!
    If you haven’t already looked into our College Student Deals Coupons FAQ, I would highly recommend doing so. Those questions and answers have proved themselves successful for others experiencing the same troubles. Some of the things touched on in this article explain common reasons for not receiving these emails, such as: a valid .edu email address was not entered, your school may block marketing emails from Best Buy (amongst others) or your email account may be set up to block spam.
    Please check your junk mail or spam folders for this email as it may have been received but simply filtered to that folder. If you are still unable to locate it, you could try re-registering with your .edu email address after adding [email protected] to your email contacts.
    If none of the things I have suggested remedy this, please reach back out to me via private message confirming the email address you registered with and I should be able to look into this for you more.
    Regards,

  • College Student Deals Not Working - Pebble watch

    Can you please help? I have been trying for three days to get a response from the college student deal was well. I really want to purchase a macbook air for my daughter but every time I ask if she's received an email, she hasn't. This is frustrating as we are ready to make our purchase and can't get any straight answer from customer service except to wait for the coupon to appear. 
    ANy help would be greatly appreciated!

    Welcome to the Best Buy forums!
    I’m sure that your daughter is really looking forward to getting that MacBook Air for her schoolwork and hopefully we can help her out with one of those student deals!  I’m sorry to hear that she hasn’t received any emails yet from when she signed up.
    Usually, most of the signups with an .edu email will take a few hours to confirm, but there are times where it may take 24-48 hours.  Please also keep in mind that these emails may also be forwarded to her Spam/Junk mail folders and that some schools block marketing emails as well.  If she has not received that email yet after 48 hours, I would have her follow up with her school’s IT department to make sure that they do not block them.
    Thanks for connecting with us!

  • Emails Send, but not received by others

    I will send to my roommate, and some he gets, some they don't. I make them check their junk mail, I see that it's the right address, but it is really freaky. Is there a way to confirm that they get an email like Outlook? Would anyone know why this is the case, we go to a college, so we use the same servers and all and theirs always are received.
    Thanks,

    Please open a message you know was not received by your roommate, click on Message in the menubar and choose Send Again. Then before sending, click on Format in the menubar and choose Make Plain Text. Send -- did he now receive it? If so, and you were using Rich Text Format, it is possible that when the RTF converted to a form of HTML that a SPAM filter somewhere in the path stopped the email before it got to him.
    More info, please.
    Ernie
