1 Services Provided
We provide cellphone and electronic device repair services, as well as data recovery services for hard drives, SSDs, flash drives, SD cards, and other storage media. We will diagnose the problem with your device and provide you with an estimate for the repair or recovery. We will only perform the work if you approve the estimate.
2 Estimates & Payment
Estimates are provided based on our initial assessment of the device. The actual cost of the repair or recovery may vary if additional issues are discovered during the process. We will notify you of any changes to the estimate and obtain your approval before proceeding. Approval can be provided in writing or verbally.
Payment is due upon completion of the repair or recovery.
A diagnostic fee may be charged if you decline the repair after we have diagnosed the problem. This fee covers the time and expertise involved in diagnosing the issue.
3 Data Loss
Important: You are solely responsible for backing up your data before bringing your device in for repair. We are not responsible for any data loss that may occur during the repair process.
