A receipt that proves fraudulent business practice. "11 Pro LCD" screen. Not the soft OLED screen I was led to believe I was paying for.
Bobby W.

SCAM ALERT!! I had my iPhone 11 Pro (which has a "soft OLED" screen) for about three years before I cracked my screen for the first time. I got my screen repaired at Advanced Repair Center by Richard, the owner. He claimed to have replaced my cracked soft OLED screen with a new soft OLED screen, not the cheaper and inferior LCD option. It cracked again less than a week later. It broke three more times in the following couple of months. After the fourth broken screen and $600 worth of repairs at A.R.C, I took my phone to a new repair shop. They took off the screen Richard installed and showed me how they knew it was a lesser-quality LCD screen (liquid crystal display). I took it to a second expert, who also said it was an LCD screen, and he would stake his reputation on it. My screen cracked only one time in three years, and then four times in 2 months after Richard replaced my screens. I have no doubt the experts are correct. Advanced Repair Center was selling me lower-quality LCD screens but claiming they were the more expensive (and more resistant to cracking) soft OLED screens. I've included two pictures. One proves the many times I've visited that business, paying $150 for a new screen on each visit. I never received a discount, despite the fact that the materials they installed kept failing. The other is a receipt that actually states I was being sold an LCD screen. This is a case of dishonest business practices, fraudulent repairs, and substandard work. As a small business owner, I have no idea how much business I lost due to the many days I didn't have a phone because of the crappy replacement screens Advanced Repair Center was selling me. I want it noted that my initial review was a sparkling five-star review a couple of paragraphs long. I believe in giving people what they deserve, and I thought I was receiving good, honest service. I was wrong. Do not enter this shop unless you want to be swindled. They prey on people who do not know the difference between genuine Apple products and cheap knock-offs. I was one of those people, and it cost me $600.

Just stopped in to get my computers screws screwed in and Roger was in the shop. He graciously stopped what he was doing and assisted me. I appreciate this. Also he is cute with sparkling eyes. I did fall in love in the 3 minutes I was in his shop. Thanks Roger!

On multiple occasions he's called me from random #'s asking me to Zelle him some cash because he can't afford to get his phone fixed, so that's why when my phone charging port failed I knew exactly where to go. I've been on Android & Samsung for 13 years never having had an issue other than loss. So when my S24 Ultra USB-C Port got loose I was thinking of just upgrading, but having lost some key features when they released the S25 Ultra I decided to repair. Phone was at 15% and was taking 3 hrs to charge via wireless and I needed my phone for work the next day (4PM thursday). I called ahead and they said $125 without knowing what model/brand. Showed up and James quoted hour and a half which was perfect as they closed at 7 and had the port in stock. They can sure fix the easy stuff, but when I asked about cases and accessories they pretty much only carry Iphone and the latest models from other brands S24 Ultra is a flagship phone. Service was great, but my screen protector was bubbled from when they removed the glass. Not a big deal, but I wish they had my brand/model for a replacement. While i was browsing I heard James interacting with another customer which gave me pause as he didn't seem to have any sympathy for them wanting to save an old phone which had pictures that were priceless to them. Loss of a star for that. Haven't had any issues since and I'll likely return if I ever have need for repair not through my insurance.

I've been using A to Z Wireless for both consumer and corporate device repairs for years, and they…read morehave never once failed me. The quality of their work is consistently excellent, and they've earned my full trust. One thing I especially appreciate is their honesty. For example, they advised me that replacing a battery in an Apple Watch carried a risk of breaking the device. They were completely transparent, and because of that honesty, I chose not to move forward. That kind of integrity is rare. The shop itself is in a very old building and isn't the cleanest environment--there are some strong odors, so I usually drop off and head out quickly because of my allergies. But despite the dated surroundings, the workmanship is top-notch. Pricing is fair and reflects the skill involved. Not "cheap," but absolutely worth it. In November 2025, they charged $15 each to apply screen protectors to brand-new iPad Pros, and the results were flawless--far better than anything I could have done myself. We were happy to pay for such careful work. I would confidently recommend A to Z Wireless to anyone needing reliable, honest, and high-quality repairs.
