This is from January 2024:…read more On their website tailoreddata.com, they mention free quotes, while recognizing their 30+ years in business and positive reviews. I took in my hard drive and explained my issue to David and how disappointed that the place I took it to originally, weren't able to recover my data. He said it would take 3-5 business days. Feeling that there was a chance in fixing my computer, I asked if I could pay now (which was $150) and left. David calls shortly after to ask questions regarding the hard drive. I'm put on hold so he could talk to the tech guy (whom I never saw, but assumed he was in back). David then told me it couldn't be fixed based on their diagnosis. I come back thinking I'd be refunded, since I paid to what I thought was towards the repair. When confronted, David apologized and shrugged it off, admitting he forgot to mention it. I would've asked to speak to someone else, but a customer was there and I don't like causing scenes. Not only did I pay $150 for a quote advertised as free, they took all of 20 minutes to diagnose something I already knew that it wasn't likely to be fixed. I decided to send an e-mail questioning this.. The following are selected parts of the replies by Kevin the owner: Our website: www.tailoreddata.com does not say anything about free quotes. Even on computer repair jobs, we don't do free quotes. We haven't done them in over 20 years. We should have given you a reference to a couple of companies that can recover your data as you are correct, all data can be recovered unless it has been physically modified. Escalating the complaint is your choice. Nothing to do with being mad or angry. People can have disagreements without anger. I feel that you are nitpicking on this "quote" thing. We quote the obvious fix. If you brought in a phone with a broken screen, we quote you the cost of replacing the screen. If you bring in a laptop with a virus, we quote the cost of removing the virus. We don't do the job and then issue a quote. If you were told the amount for the job, that is a quote. _____________________________________ I've never had any major computer issues that I couldn't fix until now. I didn't know how serious data recovery could be at times. I came in for a second opinion, because of your years in business and positive reviews. All I asked was if my hard drive could be recovered. Instead, I feel taken advantage of paying $150 for what I thought would be toward the repair. I never asked them to fix it. My point is the website says free quotes. If they no longer do them, why is it still on the website? It bothers me that a 30 year old business that admitted their mistake, would risk a negative review, instead of attempting to resolve the issue.

I said I dropped the phone over two years ago but they said it does take time for the damage to get worse over time. I suppose that's what happened in this case.

Update 2: 4-stars for owner…read more1-star for staff at location and repair Owner called and has sent a full refund after discussion. Also offered to repair again, but after the escalation of this situation and dealing with staff at store on multiple occasions in-person and phone asking to have this done in the first place, we declined to use them to repair the cracked screen. Update: "Jeff", the manager reached out to repair via text, but we simply don't trust this business after visiting in person and then calling twice afterwards to have them replace in one day. Sorry, but we have never had a cracked phone screen in this household until we used your product. And it very well could have been cracked or dropped by your business since we noticed the cracks less than 18 hours after getting the phone back. It's a shame you couldn't replace it when we brought it to the store. Hopefully, a refund will be made since we gave you three chances to make it right. Steer clear! This place will swindle you. They do not honor warranty. Had a screen replaced because the touch aspect stopped working. Had phone for four years and never had a cracked screen. Less than 24 hours after getting it replaced, screen cracked and not by dropping. Paid $150 to replace the first time for an older Samsung Galaxy. Staff was rude and said they don't replace from phone drops, but if they opened phone they could tell if it was dropped or not. Hmmm, so I should believe them to tell me if the phone was or wasn't dropped? As it's an older phone (four years), I can guarantee it has been dropped a few times, so looks like an easy out for them to not cover warranty. They are either really bad at repairs or offer cheap replacement products to customers. Go to a more reputable place, like Computer Cave. They are honest and offer quality repair and products. Staff at this Fruit Fixed Store couldn't even tell me how much the part the cost or even acknowledge that glass can crack from cheap quality or improper repair. Save your money and repair elsewhere at a more reputable place.
