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

Dan

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 was woken around midnight the other night as a Lime man tried to untangle a heap of three bikes someone had piled on my driveway. They block the pavements and people knock them over in frustration. I wrote to Lime and told them that in future any bikes left near my property would be securely stored away for collection at a mutually convenient time for both parties. I confiscated one at the weekend but a man knocked on our door looking to rent it while I was at work and my son gave it to him! I told Lime it's not fair of them to push the problem on to the local collection depots, they create the problem by allowing users to dump the things wherever they like. If they were penalized for doing so that would put an end to it.

    • "2.2.1 The Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) has undertaken a comprehensive consultation process with its residents and stakeholders regarding the proposed development which aims to create 41 additional units and has been designed to address the growing demand for accessible and supportive accommodation for individuals with visual impairments. 2.2.2 The consultation process has been a key part of the planning phase, ensuring that the needs and preferences of current residents are taken into account. RNIB has held several meetings, workshops, and surveys to gather feedback on the design, facilities, and overall impact of the new development. Residents have been encouraged to share their views on various aspects, including accessibility features, communal spaces, and the integration of the new blocks with the existing infrastructure which has directly informed the proposals. 2.2.3 The Applicant also engaged with the local MP, Helen Hayes, and a couple of local councillors at the behest of RNIB tenants to provide new homes to promote independent living for its Blind and Partially Sighted residents"     Seems like a very sensible and necessary proposal to me.
