Customer Service

Pros:

  • "Raj did a superb job quickly, efficiently with care, attention and understanding."
  • "He is very helpful and insisted I let him know if I had any questions and contact him, if any issues occurred."
  • "Raj resolved the issues I had within one working day and he is great with communication."
  • "He even showed me the process of the repair and fixed it the same day … how’s that for service?"
  • "The guys were very helpful throughout the entire process."
  • "Raj is one of the most honest technicians you will ever want to meet."
  • "Raj couldn't have been more helpful - kind, quick and efficient, and reasonably priced."

Cons:

  • "Please avoid, spend a bit more and get a proper service."
  • "worst experience!!!! they replaced my iPhone 7 screen for £100, however the home button didnt work."
  • "extremely poor customer service, nobody updates you about anything and I constantly had to chase them."
  • "the magsafe connector replacement never happened, and the area which is supposed to protect the battery from overheating has had its adhesive removed."
  • "Multiple repairs produced no result, and at one point they charged me for a replacement logic board, and I discovered that they had not even really changed it."
  • "They ended up wiping my hard drive including all my programs. I lost over 5 years worth of work and 2 contracts."
  • "Poor communications. I took my computer in on Saturday and was told they would call me to give a quote for the work either later that day or Monday. Nothing."

Repair Quality

Pros:

  • "Excellent service! They repaired my macbook air having spilt orange juice all over the keyboard."
  • "He was completely transparent and made sure I got genuine apple parts for my repair."
  • "I was also sent a recording of what was done to my laptop as well as a video call to observe the test as it was being done."
  • "Would 10/10 recommend Computer King for laptop repairs."
  • "They swiftly fixed my MacBook Air screen with a brand new one in less than 24 hours."
  • "Repaired for £230 and it was ready the next day. Can't ask for a better service!"
  • "Raj put together a reconditioned MacBook for me with new hard drive and new battery. Works perfectly."

Cons:

  • "Mac still running slow but certainly cleaner!"
  • "There's simply no need to cut corners for something like this, and I was even told at the Apple Store that they have overcharged me."
  • "This company and all of the staff members are dishonest and will do and say anything to make a quick buck."
  • "Ripped me off a few years back with my macbook pro. Told me a fan error was linked to a fault with the battery and paid 90+ for replacement."
  • "Unfortunately couldn't give 5 stars on this occasion as he wasn't able to fix my HP laptop cracked screen (touchscreen)."
  • "They could not deny this since the MAC address was the same, but they still delayed the refund for no reason."
  • "None of which was done, I had to take it back and then apparently it got fixed again - which it didn't."

Value and Honesty

Pros:

  • "Highly recommend this shop"
  • "I will be returning and recommending his service to friends."
  • "Raj found me a better solution in resolving my issue, he was honest in the first place to say I will let you know if the laptop is worth repairing."
  • "Excellent customer service. I’ll be back for sure."
  • "Raj is super polite and I would recommend him for anyone wants to fix macbook."
  • "Highly recommend! A very honest and genuine technician."
  • "Very trustworthy and professional!"

Cons:

  • "AppleMac repairs refused to provide a refund. have to say terrible service, would definitely not recommend."
  • "Can't say they haven't done the job as they had, but the thing is they didn't informed me about prices at all. I paid 325£ for new keyboard and logic board repair (which was basically just cleaning)."
  • "They charged me close to 300 pounds all in for apparently logicboard repair service and magsafe connector replacement."
  • "STAY AWAY! Whilst the prices are lower than Apple's, you get what you pay for - an extremely poor and unreliable service."
  • "Full of empty promises, misleading claims, shoddy repairs and will waste your time."
  • "They were not up front on any costings, labour rate etc."
  • "Once they got my money, they didn’t want anything to do with me."

Communication and Transparency

Pros:

  • "Raj was helpful from the very first time I placed a call."
  • "He always does any services needed in front of you too, so you can feel safe leaving expensive goods with him."
  • "Raj very clearly took me through the diagnosis and repair process when I first handed him the laptop, then followed up with video updates on the process/results once I had left."
  • "Everything was explained on the phone to me and even easier in store."
  • "Unlike any other person / company out there Raj refused to change his initial quote and refused my offer to pay more to cover the extra cost!!"
  • "he is very honest to the extent that he makes videos of the reparations and offers the broken parts of the computer."
  • "Raj listened attentively to my account of the problem affecting my laptop, then carefully went through his diagnostic routine, keeping me involved at all steps."

Cons:

  • "the owner SONNY hid in the back and refused to talk to me."
  • "Sonny apparently is never there, but what are the chances when I came to the shop he magically appears."
  • "When I called the shop and spoke to Sunny he told me that my old hard drive was in pieces and couldn't collect until the next day."
  • "Took my Mac book pro into them six months ago with a small audio problem... Over the last 6 months I have been into the shop 8 times!"
  • "They then said that I had to bring the iMac over (they said they couldn't pick up...)."
  • "I've never in my life had such a horrific experience dealing with shop before."
  • "Each time a round trip of 30 miles. Issue after issue after issue."
