Phone screen repair

Recommended Posts

My wife recently smashed the screen on her Galaxy S3, and was quoted silly money to fix it (around ?100).


In the end it turned out insurance she had through her bank account covered it. So if you pay a fee for your account, check what sort of cover you have, as it may save you quite a bit of cash.

I can fix it for you

Cost depends of the number of glasses you managed to crack so...

Iphone 5 has 3 layers of glass

1st is the protecting glass

2nd is the touch screen digitizer

and the 3rd is the LCD display

If only the first two layers are broken you looking at the cost of ?70

Cos I would need to order for the front film

which will work as the protecting rubber for the front screen protecting glass

Then I will have to get the front protecting glass

And touch screen digitizer

And that is the cheap option

... but if you see any damage on the LCD display

I.e crack, scratch, or the display is blury flashy etc then you better buy another one as the whole set inc. ?30 labour will be ?180


If you want you can reply or send me your number and I will call you

And we will clarify where we stand..


BTW you have done a good job by cracking the hardest nut of all

Cheers

Ok let's say it different

As a customer everyone of us has statutory right

To get any new phone replaced by the network provider

If it gets damaged within 3 months

These days we as customers have been stripped out of that rightbeing forced to payfor something that has been always a standard warranty

So in simple words just return the the phone as

That is one of your basic statutory customer rights


(if this is a contract phone and BTW if is on 3 network they cover your phone thruout the whole 247 months of contract)

My sis recently went to a repair shop... quoted a ridiculous amount of money for the work. She ended up buying the bits and bobs needed, found instructions how to replace the screen online and sorted it all herself - she's not the most techy minded person nor particularly patient yet managed it herself...

    • I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
    • Always preferred Grace and Favour to the BMC, commented in the past on this and sadly long since gone   
    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
