“I was looking to purchase a new laptop and was visiting a few of shops but struggled to find someone who seemed knowledgeable. I visited Node-1 and they had the knowledge to help me make a confident decision on a laptop model.”
“Just recently purchased new equipment for our office. Peter was amazing. The level of customer service he provided to us was top notch. Thanks for all your help Peter ?”
“I wanted to take the time to recognize one of your managers for the exceptional customer service she provided.
I apologize that this message is coming several weeks after the interaction, but I have genuinely wanted to make sure she receives the recognition she deserves.
The day before leaving for a two-week camping and canoe trip, I came into Best Buy at the Oshawa location (1421 Harmony Rd North) in a bit of a panic trying to finalize my equipment. I bought the insta 360 x5 essentials bundle and wanted a camera mount or clamp that I could use with my canoe, and I was under a significant time crunch.
The manager who helped me immediately (I feel terrible that I can't remember her name now but she was working on Saturday, the 13th of June, she is blonde, pretty, and has very nice manicured nails) ....anyway, she made an incredible and lasting impression. She greeted me warmly, had a genuine smile, and approached helping me with enthusiasm. It was very clear she wasn’t just going through the motions — she truly wanted to find a solution.
Although Best Buy did not have the item I needed, she went far beyond what was required. She used her personal phone to call multiple other locations / businesses to try to locate one, and she involved another employee in the search as well. She continued brainstorming options because she understood that I was trying to get ready for an important trip and had limited time.
What stood out most was her attitude. Some people help because they have to; she helped because she genuinely cared. Her patience, positivity, and willingness to go above and beyond were exceptional.
I imagine she is someone who has likely experienced the stress of trying to get everything done before a major event or trip, and that empathy showed in the way she treated me. She made a stressful situation feel much easier.
It is very clear why she is in a leadership role. She represents the kind of employee any company should be proud to have — someone who creates a positive experience and leaves customers remembering the interaction long after they leave the store.
Please ensure she receives recognition for the outstanding service she provided. She is truly an asset to Best Buy.
Thank you,
Veronica”

“Great location. Fizal was very knowledgeable and helpful. But the most amazing part was how kind he was to my kids. They loved getting a sticker and freezie. Thank you.”
“Visited Whitby Best Buy July 11th. Looking for help on how to save photos on IPad onto a device. Was helped by a wonderful employee named Harish. Harish explained various options and even took the time to walk me through how to export photos and what to look for on my device so I know the files are being saved. I not only purchased an external storage device but came away knowing exactly how to complete the process myself. Harish was very helpful and polite and definitely had a lot of patience explaining everything to me. Thank you Harish! I don’t normally write reviews but when an employee goes above and beyond it needs to be recognized. Thanks again.”
