I needed help with a random bug my pc developed out of nowhere, it was unusable. Constant freezes and sudden random new tab replications... At first they attempted to replicate the issue at the store but it didn't work, so they've asked me to bring my power cord, mouse and keyboard. They dug and dug and found the issue! A couple of corrupt drives my razed synapse downloaded (or incorrectly downloaded). A few updates later, I got my pc back!!! Thank you guys for being persistent and actually caring about my pc! Will be back soon for any upgrades!! read more

Pinellas Computers - Pc is up and running again! - IT Services & Computer Repair Near Me - Largo, Florida

I paid this place $60 for them to not even do anything with my pc other than to say it was a part that they could not test. I told them what parts I had on arrival and they said they would test everything. The guy that was there when I picked it up also treated me like an idiot. Never come here if you enjoy good service read more

Felt so excited to visit my parent who needed help with her apple computers cracked screen. Walked in and was immediately eyed up and down by two men who aggressively asked what I wanted. When I explained I had a computer for repair the main person behind the counter crossed his arms and said he'd need $60 before he'd look at it. What a joke! Said thank you and I'd see where else I could go and he said good luck. So my mom Called apple and after speaking with someone helpful got an estimate for the repair right away. It's really amazing how entitled male employees treat solo females. I guess I should have come in with a chaperone! read more

Pinellas Computers has become my go-to place for PC repair. I took them a failing external hard drive that I was using to back up my MacBook. After installing Yosemite, my external drive stopped functioning, which was a major blow as it held all my pictures, documents, my music library, etc. -- all the files that I wanted/needed. Another local computer shop somewhat close to Pinellas Computers had my drive for nearly two weeks and never got past the initial troubleshooting or research phase. After dropping my drive at Pinellas Computers, I got a call back within hours with the root cause of the drive's failure, a recommended solution, and a cost estimate for the work. The staff at Pinellas Computers were able to finish cloning my old drive and moving all my files to the new drive in a couple of business days. This was a great turn-around time being that 1) I had a ton of backups to clone (250+ GB) and 2) the drive and backups were in a native Mac format. Since then, Pinellas Computers has also helped me by looking into an issue with restoring some application files from the backup. Even tho we could't get the files restored due to a compatibility issue between different version of OS X, they didn't charge me for their time spent working on the issue. In closing, Pinellas Computers is my only PC repair shop now, for Windows or Mac, hardware or software issues. The staff are very friendly and courteous, yet totally professional and clearly knowledgeable about their craft. What's more, they update service tickets regularly, providing the option of email updates for their customers. Pinellas Computers also has VERY reasonable rates for components and labor. Don't go anywhere else for computer-related issues. PS: this is coming from an IT professional (20 yrs industry experience) with a background in end-user support, and someone with high standards for support and service. Pinellas Computers has earned this review in full. read more

I have been using this group for years and they are always responsible and responsive with fair pricing.

They placed a charge on my credit card of $37 six months after I cancelled one of their subscriptions. I am certainly not happy with a random charge of $37 coming through on my credit card six months after the fact. I don't remember agreeing to this $37 charge. I do not recommend signing up for one of their maintenance or virus subscriptions. I was talking today with Ryan, the owner of the company, who says he is 29 years old. He is threatening to take me to court and that I will pay their attorney $200+ per hour for collection actions on this charge of $37. The owner Ryan says that he has sent his attorney to collect charges from his clients before. I don't recommend anyone do business with someone so willing to send their attorney after someone for $37. After I posted a review online, Ryan called me back up and used the f-word 3 times and AGAIN threatened to take me to court. Also, their "contract" in the fine print says that they will charge $75+ if you dispute a credit card transaction and also that they can potentially remotely disable your devices. I don't recommend giving them your credit card number. I wished I had read the fine print!!! read more

Have taken my computers here several times. Great work, honest, and very knowledgeable. They always have time to answer my many many questions and take my calls and direct me how to fix an issue I may be having. (I have many) Recovered my data, and set up my new computer which they advised me on purchasing when I had a list of about 4 computers. Very pleased and will use them again, just hopefully not too soon! read more

Great job Josh. I really appreciate your excellent service. Highly recommend this company for your computer needs.

Do yourself a favor, check here first. This company was recommended to my wife from a co-worker. She told me when I had some trouble with my laptop. Check with them and decided to give them a try. Could not be happier with the results. Estimate was dead on, They knew what they were talking about, and in a one to one with the tech, I felt he knew what he was talking about. Recommend this co to anyone with a computer. read more

Great service, friendly staff, knowledgeable. Very pleased with this company. Ordered parts for repair which arrived quickly.

Bad experience with this branch of a generally well regarded computer repair business. I spent over $100 having 'multi viruses ' removed to resolve a (as it turns out, well-known) compatibility issue between W8.1 & IE11. The problem returned within 2 weeks and the alleged manager Bob lied (I'll be fair, he may just be incompetent) that it was due to further downloaded viruses and demanded a further $60, without any assurances that the problem would not recur. Awful customer handling. All they wanted to do was sell me anti-virus service. Eventually resolved the problem myself using Microsoft.com and Google. As I said, it's a well known problem and nothing to do with viruses. They should know that. Pinellas Computers, you've lost a customer forever. read more

They did a great job for me. I purchased all of the parts for a new computer but I could not get it working correctly. They figured out what I was doing wrong and took care of it for me. read more

My computer crashed one day...I took it in the next day and had a new hard drive two days later. This included backing up my files, adding some safe guards to my computer and reinstalling everything I needed. I had phone and email updates along the way. Everyone in the shop is pleasant and knowledgeable. I'm a real computer idiot but they explained things so even I could understand! I can't imagine going anywhere else! read more

So, I for my fourth desktop, I decided to take the plunge and get a Mac. The usual awkwardness in the beginning, but they are so easy to use I soon forgot about Microsoft. This was in 2012. Everything was good but around April of this year, I first noticed problems.....mainly what was once lightning fast was now reduced to a crawl. I followed the advice of Mac users and tweaked a couple of settings, got rid of some junk files, etc. Then June 20, I received an alert to upgrade my Mac OS, which I began the process and when it said it was shutting down to continue the download I thought Ok. And that was it, it shut off.....never to return. I tried everything. I knew a trip to the " Genius desk" at the Apple in International Plaza was going to cost more than the computer was worth. Discussed it with a few Mac owners I knew and the general consensus was: " Do you need an anchor for your boat ? ". So, it sat, and I thought about how much it cost and it sat some more. Then one day my wife says look at this app called Next Door, it is people in our area that sell their stuff. I started looking at and found it was more a social network of people in a small defined neighborhood who besides selling stuff could trade information. I saw one conversation where a person raved about how good Computers Pinellas was and how well they fixed her computer. The business was close by, I called them and they said they worked on Macs and to bring it in and for $30 bucks they could do an analysis and tell what was wrong, whether or not they could fix it, and how much it would cost. Long story short, 2 days after I dropped it off they installed a new hard drive ( no easy task if you know Mac desktops) and I now have effectively a brand new computer. Very happy with their interaction with customer, honest evaluation, and the cost was in my ball park. A+ read more

These guys built a gaming computer for my son and it's incredible. They did it for less money than I was expecting and it was finished three days earlier than they quoted me. It was really nice to explain what my son would be using the computer for and have the staff show me different options. I will be recommending them to everyone I know. read more

The young men resurrected my aging Dell with a new HD, NIC Card and Win 7 reload. Thanks PCL.

My computer was slow and was hanging up using Internet Explorer and unable to update one of the Windows updates and could not send attachments through Yahoo Mail. I had Webroot and Malware up to date and running. Had a free check up and found no hardware problems. I paid the $49 to have a clean up and am very happy with Nick who took care of my computer. I can now send attachments and IE is working fine as well as all updates. I took it in on a Sat. and had it back home on Monday. Very friendly as well as fast and it was to the penny that they quoated me. read more

Initially Pinellas computer tuned up my PC at their location. I was pleased so set up a home appointment to overcome a chromecast/PC compatibility issue. Schedule was set from 2 to 4pm. At 3:45pm I called to check. I was informed that they rescheduled me from 4 to 6 although they did not tell me of the change. (Fool me once, shame on them.) Then after waiting again, I called again at 5:45pm. Personnel said there was a communication glitch with the traveling home techs. So on this day, I waited 4 hours for them without any communication to me although I called them twice. (Fool me twice, shame on me.) I cancelled and will not use them again. Of interest is that they called to apologize as I was writing this review:) I do wish them success in their business though. read more
