Planning a trip abroad seem to take more time than say, planning my retirement. While most research…read moreof where to stay, eat, what to do has been done by me, the bf had the most important assignment of all: figuring out how I can check in on Yelp while in Italy. Molto importante, a mio parere! ;-) We were ready with an unlocked iphone, printed out a table comparing the different phone companies and their rates (wind, vodafone, tim, tre, etc) He decided that wind would be our best option, the price is €9 for 1 GB good for a month plus card costs with a €10 min top up. You'll save hundreds of dollars this way (use that money for the Italian leather shoes you want!) just bring your passport and in some cases, you'll need a "codice fiscale" which we had on hand, but didn't need. It's better to be prepared and you can generate one over here: http://italychronicles.com/how-to-create-a-codice-fiscale/ We came right when the store opened at 10am and there was only one guy manning the place. He wasn't the most friendliest, but we were out of there in 10 mins. Located in Galleria Esedra near the Piazza Della Repubblica. Metro stop is Repubblica.

Suffer is the keyword…read more I've been traveling for some time so having a computer, phone in good working order is a must! Came here to get my battery replaced. It's a recall. Had the appointment...and the genius bar dude was "this is a problem". Total disgust and dismay in his face certainly & not a welcoming demeanor. He can't do anything. WTF! It takes us almost an hour to get there and he wants to go to the "other" store. Talk about passing the buck to someone else! I spoke to the manager and he couldn't seem to get his head around this, which he didn't see a problem to go to the other store either. I had to huff and puff to get want I wanted, which I hate to do but this isn't rocket science! To be honest, the phone was working fine...but didn't hold the full charge but technically is in good working order. In the end, they "found" the battery but it's just plain laziness. You either have it or you don't! Sheesh. Don't suffer...go to the EUR store.

The technician Andrea told me I can't leave my computer for repairs but instead I have to go home and return with an appointment in order to fix my computer. I couldn't just leave it there and they call me. I also was prepared to purchase a new computer in return as I need it for work. The manager Andrea told me I cannot. I am sure share holders of apple, including myself, would not like to know there is an employee treating customers like this. This is the reason that I will only buy apple products in America unless forced into purchasing them here. Terrible customer service and management.

Why not just have the appointment time reflect when they can actually see you? Hard for someone who remembers the Genius Bar days of Steve and early Tim. Apples really lost a lot of their premium feeling since then.

Perfect for expats, no Italian required. Honestly, this was the easiest purchase I have made since…read morebeing in Italy. Thanks to Daniele, who is the best, we were able to make purchase and delivery arrangements entirely on Whatsapp. So, if your Italiano is non molto bene (and even if it is), you know that is grande lol. Not only that, after hours of searching online, Sinergy was the only company that actually had a selection in stock and ready for immediate delivery. They can even arrange delivery for when you want it, unlike the other companies that forward your order to a 3rd party courier, where you are at their mercy. I actually texted Sinergy on the Whatsapp number (after closing hours), expecting a reply the next day. Instead Daniele replied with 5 minutes. We are renting, so I indicated that we simply needed an inexpensive white refrigerator, and provided the dimensions of the space. Daniele got back to me first thing in the morning with the perfect Beko model for a fantastic price, then sent me an invoice to my email. I made the payment that evening, and the next day we had our refrigerator. The modest delivery cost included installation and removal of the old unit. I must not neglect to mention the 3 highly professional delivery men, who completed (flawlessly) the installation and removal in like 10 minutes! Onestamente, questo è stato l'acquisto più facile che ho fatto da quando sono in Italia. Grazie a Daniele, che è il migliore, siamo stati in grado di prendere accordi di acquisto e consegna interamente su Whatsapp. Quindi, se il tuo italiano non è molto buono (e anche se lo è), sai che è grande lol. Non solo, dopo ore di ricerca online, Sinergy era l'unica azienda che aveva effettivamente una selezione in magazzino e pronta per la consegna immediata. Possono anche organizzare la consegna per quando vuoi, a differenza delle altre aziende che inoltrano il tuo ordine a un corriere di terze parti, dove sei alla loro mercé. In realtà ho mandato un messaggio a Sinergy sul numero Whatsapp (dopo l'orario di chiusura), aspettandomi una risposta il giorno successivo. Invece Daniele ha risposto con 5 minuti. Stiamo affittando, quindi ho indicato che avevamo semplicemente bisogno di un frigorifero bianco economico e ho fornito le dimensioni dello spazio. Daniele mi ha risposto come prima cosa al mattino con il perfetto modello Beko ad un prezzo fantastico, poi mi ha inviato una fattura alla mia email. Ho effettuato il pagamento quella sera, e il giorno dopo avevamo il nostro frigorifero. Il modesto costo di consegna includeva l'installazione e la rimozione della vecchia unità. Non devo trascurare di menzionare i 3 fattorini altamente professionali, che hanno completato (impeccabilmente) l'installazione e la rimozione in circa 10 minuti!

i bought a Mac book M3 in june 2024 in Toronto. I have been buying apple computers, phones and…read moreother products for 20 years. I currently have 3 Macbook pros that I'm using. I travel a lot and apple computers have always gone with me...being carried in travel bags, packed in suitcases etc without any problems. I took the new M3 to México city to use while I was there. I set up on the dining room table to work and did so every day. on the 5th day I sat down to work and there were fine lines across the bottom and left side of the screen. it had been sitting on the table overnight... no one beside myself was near the computer. I figured something bad was up.. so I looked on the internet and there were many bad reviews of M 2 & 3 computers having the same problem broken screen with no provocation. I called Apple support and they told me to take it to an Apple Store to get the screen replaced. because no one touched it.. he said it would be covered under warranty. this was a senior technician that I spoke with at Apple support I was in Nice France by this time but was told there was not enough time to get a new screen before I had to leave. when I got to Rome... I went to the store on Via Corso. talked to a guy who set up an appt for me at 2 later on the same day . he repeated it 2 times. I came back at 2 and they told me I had missed my appt at 12:10!! there were almost no customers in the store so they said they'd fit me in with Daniel... who was very pleasant and helpful. However, he said that the problem was that I had closed the computer with something in between the screen which cracked the screens. I had not closed the computer ... it was open as I had left it for the previous 5 days. he said it was not covered by warranty and that I would have to pay approx $1200 CND + tax to fix it. This is a 6 month old computer. As I mentioned I have used Apple computers for 20 years ... travelling all over the world with them... never had a problem... doing exactly what I did with this computer. There is something faulty with this screen type if this same problem is happening with as many people as I see online. But another observation.... If I have opened and closed the many MacBooks that I have owned over these many years a combined total of thousands of times in all kinds of circumstances including dropping a MacBook Pro while running through an airport to make a plane connection onto a stone floor..which it flew across ..ending up open flat on its screen and still worked great with no damage...don't tell me that I might have closed it on some tiny thing that could have damaged the screen...who are u trying to kid... take responsibility for your flawed product and replace it for free. People reading this... do yourself a solid and do not buy this computer... it was $6000 + and now an additional $1200 ... and god knows this same problem could happen again anytime. I so regret buying it and am going to reconsider buying any Apple products going forward. Also, Apple please create a durable screen for your M2 and M3 computers that can stand up to regular usage as all your previous computers have. this is not okay. I am warning everyone I can about this, on every site that I can think of. This is a classic case of a huge company forgetting the very people who have made them successful.

They have a larger location closer to the Fendi flagship store; however, with it being around 10am during our morning stroll at the Spanish Steps it made more sense to check this one out. I was the second person to be ushered in and it looked like they had a few VICs already shopping before open to the public. What really resonated with me was how friendly they were and looking forward to helping me with my shopping needs. This shop has more than one level and is carefully curated taking advantage of every square inch of space within the boutique. Once it was my turn I informed them it would be a short and sweet shopping visit as I needed to pick up a wallet for partner's tia. They had the wallet in stock and we were able to get it boxed up and wrapped up for the holidays. Now the five-star moment that made me smile was how friendly they were to hot stamp my passport holder to have an emblem of the colosseum. It's a complimentary service but many stores don't have the ability to do it on the spot. They did it within ten minutes which made my stop to this shop more memorable. Shopping luxury in Europe is always cheaper than it is buying in the US. Make sure to have your physical passport so they can have the paperwork prepped and ready to go upon checkout. A photo of your passport will not suffice.
