Amazed by this shop

Amazed by this shop. Fixed same day. Reasonable price. No booking. We turned up on a busy Saturday with a broken phone. Battery had exploded, they sorter it within 5 hours.

Poor customer service

To preface my review, I am not writing to ‘hate’ on this repair shop; I genuinely believe that they serve other customers well and that my experience only partially reflects their capabilities as a repair shop. However, I wish to share my concerns as they are a business, but the handling of the service I received was abysmal and not up to what I expect when you hear the claims “UK’s Number 1 Repair Shop”.

I came in with a console that needed repairing. I handed said console in, and they said they’d diagnose it. They were very late communicating when to begin the repair (well past the due date given to me) and only began after I phoned them three times. After a month of me phoning them consistently and being told they would “call me back” when referring to the repair of my console. I would not be given a phone call back and instead would wait a few more days to phone again and be told the same answer. This is unprofessional service, and you’re a business which expects to keep customers informed of the repairs. This company should strongly reflect upon how they relay information from their technicians to their customers as, from my experience, it was poor and stressful. I handed the console in with a state that would turn on, but there was no Wi-Fi. After over a month of chasing, I was consistently told that it would soon be ready to collect, then said, ‘We need a few more days.’ I was told then that the device was not repairable and that they would deem it unsuccessful, and eventually, I picked it up. At this point, the device was worse after the repairs in which it would no longer even turn on, and I was now forced to sell it on the internet as it had effectively become a paperweight collecting dust with hundreds of hours of game saves lost.

Overall, the staff were very friendly, but that’s not an excuse for the terrible service. I understand the fact that they tried a repair, and it failed. Repairing components on a motherboard is tricky, and I wouldn’t necessarily put it down to the lack of knowledge by the technicians. My issue is the abysmal communication, lack of organisation, and general time for them to begin to attempt to repair your console.

Until there is an honest effort at improvement, I would avoid this place if you’re going in for a serious repair. Possibly contact the manufacturer or somewhere more reputable. My experience was negative, and it isn’t to say you won’t have a positive experience here; I believe this shop needs to seriously look at how it operates. This experience was far more stressful than any device repair I’ve ever gone through, and it’ll make me think twice before trusting a small business repair shop.

Dear Dillan,

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback regarding your experience with us. We truly appreciate your honest perspective and want to extend our sincere apologies for the shortcomings you encountered during your interaction with us.

We're genuinely sorry for the delay in communication unfortunately at no explanation to yourself to avoid panic we was shot staffed during your repair duration. We understand how frustrating it can be to not receive timely updates, especially when dealing with a repair. Your concerns regarding our handling of your console's repair are valid, and we're committed to addressing them to improve our services.

We acknowledge that our friendly staff should be complemented by efficient processes and clear communication. We deeply regret that your console's condition worsened after the repair, however before taking this risk procedures we did send you a disclaimer and you gave us full authorisation to continue knowing the risks. In addition, I can confirm that the repair totaled to a staggering 14.5 hours our tech had spent on research; trial and error and free handing the reballing of the ic components as there are limited schematics and stencils available for problem and model.

Your feedback is invaluable to us, as it helps us recognize areas where we need to make substantial improvements. We're taking your comments seriously and will be reassessing our communication procedures and repair processes to prevent such situations from happening in the future.

We understand your hesitation in considering smaller repair businesses based on this experience, but we genuinely aspire to regain your trust. If you decide to give us another chance, we're committed to ensuring a much smoother and satisfactory experience for you.

Thank you once again for taking the time to share your thoughts. We're dedicated to learning from this and working toward delivering the level of service you rightfully expect.

Warm regards

My son found a phone and after posting…

My son found a phone and after posting on Facebook Kyle from Console Clinic messaged me straight away offering his help to try and find the owner using there database! Unfortunately, they had no record of the phone but passed it on to his partner company! I’ve always seen posts from them telling parents to let their children know that their shop is a safe haven for anyone in danger, needs parents contacting and to charge their phones! I now know 100% it’s not just for publicity but they are a genuine caring company which is very rare! Kyle was very professional and was as disappointed as I was that the owner hasn’t been found! I even got a follow up message from their employee Becky at 6:50 am today to ask if I needed anymore help! Thanks Kyle and team for your efforts! If I ever require any help with our phones etc in the future I wouldn’t go anywhere else x
