I recently encountered an issue with my iPhone and sought assistance at Quick Communications after receiving a flyer from AT&T store suggesting an insurance claim. From the moment I stepped into Quick Communications, I was met with professionalism and efficiency. Louis, the technician, swiftly diagnosed and resolved the problem within seconds, saving me the hassle and expense of an insurance claim. Louis exemplified unparalleled expertise and dedication to customer satisfaction. Not only did he provide a prompt solution, but he also did so without charging me a dime. His commitment to delivering exceptional service was evident throughout my experience. I highly recommend Quick Communications to anyone in need of phone repairs or assistance. Louis's expertise and professionalism are truly commendable, and I am grateful for the outstanding service I received. Thank you, Quick Communications, for your exemplary service and dedication to customer satisfaction. read more

This review is way overdue....I had lost my cell phone out in the field some time ago and had to end up paying through my nose and getting a replacement. Few days later, I received a call from Louis asking me if I had lost my phone and sure enough I went to his store and picked it up. The great story is that one of his customers was the one that had found my phone but I had a password on and no one could access it to find out potentially who owns it, however the man was so kind to turn it in to Louis. Louis had spent several hours trying to get into the phone to find out the owner's detail and he finally had. When I went out to pick it up, I was very happy and asked if I should at least cover for his time. He kindly said that was not necessary. I was very grateful for the act of kindness on his part as well as the person who had originally found my phone. I felt very fortunate and lucky that day! Great customer service!! Thank you. read more

My Iphone battery was on its last legs. Called a bunch of vendors (Oakland/Berkeley/Emeryville) left phone msgs, got no return calls. Finally saw Quick Communications in Alameda, called and got a real person, said he could do the job and had the battery. Easy enough to find, parking was easy. Was in and out in under 30 minutes. The price was reasonable - cheaper than Apple. He said my old battery was from 2015, so it had a good life. The location is GREAT, a three fer. There is a bicycle shop, hamburger joint and sandwich shop all within about 50 yds of Quick Communications. Thumbs up to Quick Communications. read more

This is the worst place to setup your mobile service. They are only interested in MAKING money and not in helping you SAVE money. They lied to us about what services were available, so we ended up paying WAY more than any other plan. AVOID this place and head to a store where they actually care about what service is right for you instead of lying to you and taking advantage of your ignorance. This place is just gross. read more

I then offhandedly asked him about the USB charging port on my ebike that never worked. Without hesitation he checked it out. When it didn't work for him, he started researching it. He said to turn the bike off, he inserted the cord and then he said to turn it on. Viola! it worked.

Their website is entirely misleading as it quoted me $89. Then I got an automated text that said $89 plus tax. THEN I got a text from the actual tech that was supposed to come and repair it that it would now cost $129. He also wanted to offer me a gold home button for another $30, but here's the thing: there's nothing wrong with my button, it's just the screen so whatever. Totally shady.

I wanted to share my experience and concerns regarding my data recovery evaluation. I am not…read moresomeone who typically writes negative reviews. I'm about uplifting local businesses. However, because I work in the technology field, I felt it was important to share my experience after taking the time to look further into the situation and to help others going through a similar situation. Initially, I did not jump to conclusions. Instead, I sought additional opinions from other professional recovery companies to better understand available options. That's most important. Before posting this review, I reached out directly to Emergency Guy to give them an opportunity to address my concerns and provide clarification. Unfortunately, I did not receive a response. I came to Emergency Guy seeking guidance after experiencing issues with my HDD and SSD. Overall, the staff and technicians were respectful. However, I did have one interaction with an individual staff member who appeared overwhelmed and frustrated - possibly the owner, Phillip? While that affected the tone of that particular interaction, I understand that these situations can happen. It did not deter me from my overall experience, as I continued working with other staff members who were professional and helped improve the overall tone of the communication. I paidfor an evaluation and assessment, including shipping costs. During a follow-up phone conversation, I was asked over the phone whether I would consider increasing my budget to approximately $2,000 so the HDD could be sent to another company. While I was open to discussing available options, I ultimately decided not to proceed. Approximately four weeks later or longer, I was informed that the HDD platters were damaged and that there was essentially no realistic chance of recovering my data, even through another recovery provider. I was also asked whether I wanted the drive recycled, which I understood as disposing of the device, and I chose not to proceed with that option. I sought additional professional opinions. After receiving a second and third evaluation from other data recovery companies, I was advised that the condition of the HDD did not appear to match the assessment I had originally received. This experience raised concerns about the accuracy of the initial evaluation. Since I paid it, I expected a clear and accurate diagnosis of the drive's condition, along with realistic information regarding possible recovery options. My concern is not that recovery was uncertain -- I understand that data recovery can be complex and that outcomes are never guaranteed. My concern is that I was told it was beyond recovery, yet further evaluations resulted in my data being successfully recovered. My advice to anyone going through a similar situation is to seek multiple professional opinions. I chose Emergency Guy because I believe in supporting local businesses, and I appreciate the services they provide. However, when dealing with important data recovery decisions, it is always wise to consult other qualified professionals. If something does not feel right, take the time to ask questions, gather information, and get additional opinions before making a final decision. If someone becomes dismissive with questions - that's a sign to move on immediately.
