So... I have left quite a few reviews of places I visited or services I have used…read morebit.ly/RodsYelpReviews - but this is the first time I am leaving a review for a service I didn't use. I was having a problem with my computer so I reached out to several Kona repair shops with a description of my problem and a request for service. Based on my information, Malama Tech replied back with a link and said, "Try this." It worked. Also, note that he said he doesn't do the type of repairs that I needed, but he gave me the name of another computer service as well. You have to imagine that based on the consideration and helpfulness provided by Steven for a non-customer, how their customer service will be for a real customer. Mahalo!!!

Friendly + Helpful! Steven is as good as it gets with tech support. We needed to trouble shoot a…read moreDNS issue ASAP and he was able to pinpoint the issue and respond immediately. We didn't even have to be on the same island as him to resolve the issue. Within a few minutes, we were good to go!

I tried the…read moreauthorized Mac repair shop in Kona, but I had a hard time getting responses to my e-mails, after initially setting up the repair. I found Paradise Computing Consulting on Yelp and gave them a call. Todd was very responsive and quickly prepared a quote for the requested work. I dropped the computer off the next day. Several days later I received a call that the work was done. The price was right and the computer works better than ever. I am very happy that I reached out to Paradise Computer Consulting and I will not hesitate to give them another call when we have computer issues or when we want another upgrade.

Travis showed up for a diagnostic assessment of a malfunctioning automatic gate opener at the front…read moredriveway. He returned and installed a new gate opener. He stated that he would return again to install a photo sensor and reconnect the remote metal detector wand attached to the gate opener. Despite at least four text messages over the next six weeks and several voicemail messages, he never responded or returned. I had two or three other small Appliance Repair jobs for him which he never returned to address. He appears to be too busy to even give the courtesy of responding to a text message or voicemail stating that he is not able to render services because he is too busy. I eventually gave up on him. I would recommend that customers stay away from his business in light of his ignoring multiple contact attempts.

The internet and electrical outlets stopped working at our home after the recent storm and power…read moreoutage. I called VP Electric to rescue us, and they did not disappoint. Service Technicians, Allen and Garrett, arrived at our home on time, and immediately honed in on what was causing the electrical outlet problem inside our home. Allen found 2 electric outlets on our lanai that were completely corroded due to the recent storm. Upon cleaning out and completely replacing the corroded outlets, the power to the previously non- functioning outlets inside our home became fully restored. Allen and Garrett then installed outlet covers to protect the outlets on our lanai from the same corrosion problem happening again in the future. Last but not least, Allen addressed our downed internet service. He installed a new router we provided him, and got our internet service back up and running. Yay! Allen and Garrett proved to be experienced electrical pros, and delivered friendly, expert service. In summary, I look forward to patronizing VP Electric for our future electrical contractor needs.
