This place, straight up has to have THE WORST customer experience I've EVER experienced. I took in my PS4 Pro in to repair as it was no longer reading discs on Friday May 8th. First things first, they found duplicate customer profiles of mine in their system, couldn't figure out how to merge them, so they made ANOTHER profile, thanks, I appreciate you adding my information in triplicate because you aren't trained in how to properly merge client profiles.
To begin with, their alleged diagnostic of my device was "Very Poor" I get it...my device was dusty maybe some light cosmetic scratches. But NOWHERE was my device as their company describes in a "Very Poor" condition which is "Device severely, physically, and/or cosmetically damaged. Device broken apart, pieces missing, scuffs, scratches, dents all over, etc". My device sits in a wall unit, and is never moved, and I brought my device in one piece....how is that broken apart or missing pieces?
I gave them the whole weekend to look over my device. I understand...Coronavirus, things can be backed up. Didn't receive a phone call until the week of May 11th...ok fine, let's assume the store is backed up on repairs (store was completely empty of clients as were in the middle of a PANDEMIC when I went in AND they have other UBreakIFix locations closed, due to what I'm sure is lack of foot traffic). After a conversation with one of the male technicians, he said he would look over my device, clean it first to see if my optical drive was just dusty for a charge of $50, as sometimes thats the issue with discs not reading, I said go ahead. I then got a call back that same day that my optical drive needed replacement. The technician confirmed on whether I would be willing to pay for the piece after clarifying that it would cost more than advertised because it is a Pro Model, and have the new optical drive shipped in as they didnt have the piece in stock, I of course agreed. He also forewarned that it would take about 3-4 days to receive the piece, and that it maybe be backed up because of COVID-19, I said no problem go ahead with the repair.
I hear NOTHING from the store, so I figured that they were backed up (mind you I've been ordering from other online retailers...eBay, Amazon with no massive issues at all with shipping delays other than maybe a day or so delay). I get a phone call, the week of May 29th...from another male technician as a follow-up to my repair, and to my disbelief whether I wanted to confirm my ordering a new optical drive for $200, more than what's advertised becuase it's a Pro model, an optical drive that I had ordered over two weeks prior, and then had the audacity to rewarn me about delays.
At this point, I was committed as I'm basically 20 days into having them repair my PS4 Pro, I let the employee know that their team had already confirmed ordering the piece with me, and I approved my repair. No apology, no explanation, just silence on the other end while I'm waiting for an answer as to why they fumbled something like a PS4 Pro, which I'm pretty sure isn't like a common iPhone screen repair that they deal with more often as per your reviews.
I call the store today June 2nd about a week and a half from the last time they had gotten in touch with me to follow up on the status of my device. This time around the piece they ordered apparently had come in, AND WAS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH MY DEVICE! Now I'm stuck waiting again, for them to order ANOTHER OPTICAL DRIVE, because I can almost bet they ordered a drive for a PS4 and not a PS4 Pro, even after they warned me about upcharges, delays and everything.
As if to add insult to injury, I asked the technician to check and see when my device was scheduled to come in...and he gladly obliged! So you mean to tell me that you've had access to shipping times, when during the first diagnostic and cleaning of my device, your team was warning me about potential delays that they have no control over? Let's not even get started that they had received an optical drive in record time of a within a week and a half span and now conveniently in the process of ordering another one without informing me first (I would've IMMEDIATELY taken my device elsewhere for repair) due to their inability at diagnosing to work effectively.
Again, I get it...Coronavirus, things are all messed up for everyone...we'll see what happens then, because if this repair is not done I will most definitely be getting in touch with their corporate for a second time, because I am paying a premium to get this fixed. Their utter disregard for customer service is appalling, and I say this being a bartender at a popular, upscale, volume-driven location who deals with disgruntled customers with high-expectations on an HOURLY basis, so I am very familiar with customer service and methods to prevent upsetting customers and driving clientele away
