I normally hate phone shops, but the guy that helped me out in here was a super star…read more Boring waffle but explanation of what happened: I had issues with a broken iPhone 5C, a back up iPhone 4 both with different SIM card sizes. I was all a fizzle and not knowing how I was going to send one phone off and keep the number live on a different sim but then be able to switch phones back when it was repaired. In a nutshell, he just took both phones off of me, sorted it all. Handed back with all sim swaps and drama dealt with. SUMMARY: Best bit, he didn't charge me, he just sorted it, quickly and with a smile. It's a shame 95% of phone shops can't be like this. It's a little gem and when it comes to upgrading my phone I am going back there to sign up with him. Blinding customer service!!

This electronics store has managed to save me more than once. It sells everything from adapters,…read moresockets, phone equipment, music cables, TV cables, computer bits, screws in every size and colour, power adapters, sat navs, car equipment, tools to lava lamps. It really sells it all. Now, I will admit that as a typical girl, I am probably a DIY imbecile, and yet the staff has always been very patient and helpful with me, which I will forever be grateful for. This is the perfect shop for all your electronic needs whether you are a tech expert or just desperately trying to fix a household object.

Many times I have been confronted with rude staff, wrong discs in boxes and non functioning items. Whenever (and whatever) you trade in to sell for cash, they usually do not have the cash on site, leaving you with a 'credit note' in order to buy bad quality items. The staff are very poor. On more than one occasion the staff swear in front of their customers and most of them had no idea what they were doing. Their attire also had a lot to be desired as most of the men wear casual clothes and the women very little. The casual clothes not being too much of a problem, but makes it hard to distinguish which is a customer and which is a salesperson. I have given Cex, the Derby shop, I 1 star out of 5 due to its terrible service and lack of care to the customer.
