Q. How can you offer a NO FIX - NO FEE service when most companies charge for
running diagnostics and engineer time even
when they can't repair the laptop or the parts are too expensive?
A. We are confident that
our IBM trained engineers will repair most of the computers we receive at the
quoted price. We give you an honest and realistic quote before you send us
the laptop. We try to prevent uneconomical and impossible repairs
being sent to us - this saves you time and carriage costs. No point in flogging a dead horse.
Q. What happens if the cost of repair is higher than the phone quote?
A. There are a few cases where a laptop has suffered more damage than the
initial telephone diagnosis would suggest. The engineer will call you with his
findings and provide you with a revised quote. You have the right to
reject the repair. If you collect your laptop from our premises there is
absolutely NO CHARGE.
Q. Some companies try to sell you a replacement laptop because they make
bigger profits on sales than on repairs. Do you sell laptops?
A. We are a repair company 100% - we don't sell any laptops, so there is no
conflict of interest. Most users prefer to have their existing laptop, with all their favourite software and
data, fixed. Most new laptops are now sold with Windows 7 or Vista
and users may need more time to learn the new operating system. Your much loved old
camera, scanner, printer or webcam might need new drivers. Some
manufacturers have no plans to develop Vistadrivers for older hardware. They see it as a waste of their resources.
Q. What is the time scale for repairs?
A. It really depends on the exact nature of the fault. Most backlights,
keyboards, LCDs and broken power socket pins can be repaired in 1-2 days, when parts are
in stock, otherwise 4-5 days. Video and motherboard faults usually take 2-5 days
because extensive testing is required after repairs. Same day repairs need
to be prearranged to ensure that engineer time and parts are allocated for the job -
please call.
Q. Do you have a workshop in Hammersmith?
A. We are based in Harrow (North London), but we do service laptops and supply spare parts for customers all over the UK including
Hammersmith.
