After calling a few different places and getting quoted extortionate prices for a potential fix, I texted Nicola and he was great from beginning to end, kept in touch throughout the entire process and didn't proceed with anything until I authorised him to do so. He was able to do a 100% data retrieval so I have everything back (as well as a lesson learned to back up my data) all for a very reasonable cost. I would highly recommend Nicola's services it was very quick and hassle free - Thank you so much!!!

Brian calls me a few days later and tells me I need a new SATA cable and that the cable only costs 10 euro, then he goes on to tell me it's €185 for the repair including the deposit (or €170 if I payed him in cash) I told them not to repair it and then went to collect the PC a few days later when he tells me there is now an issue with BIOS. I took the pc and brought it straight to another shop in Phobsboro where I was told he unplugged a cable connected to one of my hard drives so that my PC wouldn't boot.

Paid the cost to get it repaired. 2 days later, my phone fell from the couch from a hight of no more than 2 feet on to wooden floor and the screen cracked again. Having had iphones since they have been released I know the durability of the screens. This should not have happened. I then reenacted the exact fall of the phone with another iphone 5, knowing sure that the screen wouldn't crack and it didn't. Within an hour my phone was completely unusable, I couldn't open or close it. This would never happen with an original iphone screen. I arrived on monday morning to 511 tech solutions, and the person who deals with phone damage was not present. I then arrived back the following morning at 9.30am and the shop was closed. The shop was then finally opened 30 minutes late. When I explained what had happened with my phone, I was told I was going to have to pay 60 euro to fix the screen. I will never use tech solutions in future, the standard of their products are completely below par and their customer service is atrocious.

Seagate recovered my data FOR free TL;DR: Seagate recovered…read moremy data from an old drive that had failed FOR FREE, for real. This review is about the Seagate Recovery Services division. I am going to do my best to be as objective as possible. In other words, this review is BYOC (bring your own conclusion). I purchased a ST31000340NS drive In November 2008 while I was living in US. I did not purchase Data Recovery, and I don't remember that I was aware of it, or if it was offered at the time of purchase by the retailer. The drive failed in October 2011, while still under warranty. I do not remember losing data at that time. Seagate replaced the drive at no charge with a certified repaired drive of exactly the same type. About five years later, the replacement drive also failed, and this time I believe I lost some data. The drive failed gradually and I was able to copy most of my data off of it. However, some of the data could not be copied, and because of the large number of files, I was not sure if the data that I could not copy was actually important andfurthermore, I wasn't even sure what files I could not copy. I kept the drive with the intention that if later I discovered that I can't find some important data, I would send it to a data recovery service. Fast forward to about a month ago. I had been living in the UK for a few months, and I was looking for some old scanned documents, that I might or might have not had in the past. At that point I decided to look into that recovery. I contacted a data recovery service here in UK, after doing some due diligence. It was going to cost £195/395 + VAT, potentially more depending on the difficulty of the data recovery process. Just as I was communicating with this data recovery service, I had the inspiration to also contact Seagate's own data recovery division. I called and talked with a customer representative, who after understanding exactly my situation, offered the service free of charge, with an exception/waiver from regular fees which would've applied without the data Recovery plan, which would have been expired anyway, considering the age of the drive, even at the time it failed. I sent the drive to their labs in Netherlands, and a couple of days ago I received a brand-new drive back with the data from the old one recovered. I find it hard to use words to express my gratitude for what Seagate did, but I'm going to do it anyway. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I urge anyone contemplating using Lynch for computer repairs to go elsewhere. I was studying abroad…read moreand submitted a laptop that needed urgent repairs to the keyboard, being assured it would be done in two weeks max. Unfortunately, a week later I was sent back to the US due to the pandemic but was assured by the owner (Harry) that it could take some time but would eventually be sent back to me with the repairs made. After some spotty correspondence back and forth, that lead me to believe I would be receiving the laptop soon, I heard nothing from him. Five months have gone by and my laptop has not been sent, and I haven't received any reply to my numerous emails asking when it would be sent. For all intensive purposes my laptop was stolen. I feel very taken advantage of, them knowing that I was a visiting student who would be unable to come retrieve the laptop in person because of the extenuating circumstances. I can't help but wonder if this wouldn't have happened if I weren't a visiting student/tourist. In essence, their initial service was ok, but in the end they outright took/stole my laptop, and barely responded to my messages before entirely ignoring them. I'd strongly caution anyone not to go here, but especially visiting tourists or students studying abroad.
