Obviously, they didn't perform the service you paid for. The fact that they rescheduled a Geek Squad visit proves that they didn't perform the service.
My understanding is that if you ask Lowe’s or Home Despot to install something, they use people from their list of installers, who kicks back part of the fee. I used Home Despot a couple months ago to get a new water heater installed, and I was very happy with the result, but it’s third party. I suppose the stores keep track of complaints about installers and use ones who do a good job.
