Oh no, it’s the Wally Squad

From hothardware.com:

“In an odd move aimed to rival Best Buy‘s Geek Squad, Wal-Mart has announced plans to offer its own form of tech support for shoppers.  The mega-retailer has confirmed that it has started up a partnership with N.E.W. Customer Service Companies in order to offer in-home setup services to those who buy their gear from Wally World. In fact, the new offering will be in place prior to the holiday season getting fully underway, so there’s a good chance things will take off this winter.  Wal-Mart customers will be able to buy service plans on a prepaid card ranging from $99 to $399, which honestly sounds like a curious way to pay for in-home installation services. At any rate, the services available range from standard television setup to wiring an entire home theater system or home network, and all plans include preliminary consultation and a tutorial after installation is completed.”

Given how cheap Walmart is regarding wages, I can only imagine the quality of people working in the “Wally Squad”.
