How much does Geek Squad charge to clean up or repair a computer in 2026?
The price depends on what the computer actually needs. Best Buy currently lists remote services such as Operating System Tune-Up and Upgrade at $39.99 and Virus Removal and Operating System Repair at $149.99. Other services may be performed in-store or in-home and have different prices.
This guide breaks down current Geek Squad computer-service prices, what My Best Buy Total includes, and how those costs compare with independent remote computer help.
Current Geek Squad Computer Service Prices
| Service | Best Buy Price | Service Type |

How much is a Geek Squad membership at Best Buy?
A lot more than getting help from That Tech Jeff.
Best Buy currently offers My Best Buy Total for $199.99 per year. The membership includes unlimited in-store and remote computer and tablet services, 24/7 tech support, protection plans on eligible Best Buy purchases, and 20% off labor for repairs.
For someone who frequently buys technology from Best Buy or regularly uses Geek Squad services, the membership may provide worthwhile benefits. If you only need help with an occasional computer problem, however, it makes sense to compare the membership cost with paying for an individual service or using an independent computer-support provider.
