I live in Monterey, CA. so I went down to the PC repair shop on Del Monte Ave near Lake El Estero. I found out they were taking a long needed vacation and they let customers know they highly recommend that I take my PC service to Josh's shop 'What Ya Break', in Marina, CA right at the mouth of reservation road. Josh did an excellent and cost effective diagnoses on my old PC and helped me design out and build a new, quieter and more energy efficient PC going forward with an intel i5 Hex CPU, DDR4 memory, MSI motherboard and other important parts moved over from my older machine. It Works Most Excellent. So quiet I do not even know it is on ! Color me happy.

I came back and she said she needed more time. I had to leave to Monterey but I told her I'd be back. When I came back 2 hrs later to pick up my phone, a corner of the screen was very dim and the brightness wouldn't go any higher. She called another tech and said they could give me a $10 discount but they would try to replace the screen again and fix the dim light issue. Another tech came to get it and they told me it would be 20 minutes. I came back 20 min later and the new tech said she couldn't fix it and she was waiting for another tech who had more experience but was on break. She told me to come back in 30 min. I then came back 30 min later only to be told that they needed 10 more minutes. At this point I was frustrated but again we waited and came back. I kid you not that when I came back my phone was still not fixed and they had to call a 4th tech to try and fix it. The 4th tech told me she was the manager and her name was Victoria. She explained to me that screen would no longer turn on and it was damage that happened when the screen cracked. She said a piece had come loose when the phone was dropped. I don't understand how that would be the case if the first tech was able to fix it but it was just dim. I asked if it could've been damage from her technicians and she said they wouldn't break that piece on purpose and fixing the screen is very simple so she didn't believe it would've caused that kind of damage. I'm confused why it took 4 technicians to figure that out and why the first technician even tried to fix the screen if there were other issues. I didn't understand how I brought it in with the screen working fine and it was only cracked but now it was completely black. She told me they would have to send the phone out to have a piece soldered and it would be $140 plus $80 to still have the screen repaired. She urged me to consider buying one of their refurbished phones they were selling at the kiosk. She seemed to try and steer me away from sending the phone out to be soldered and just to buy a refurbished one instead. The cheapest refurbished one was $198 so only about a $20 difference from having my original phone sent out and fixed. But the refurbished phone was a downgrade and older model. She told me the refurbished one would be better because more things might break on my phone and I'd keep having to put money into it because it's an old phone. She told me to think about it and she would offer me a discount and she said if they did soldering she would even offer to do it for free but they didn't offer that service at the kiosk which is why I would have to pay to send it out. I will say this, Victoria seemed to be the only technician with any sort of costumer service skills. The other girls seemed lost and didn't seem confident to even be working there. The first girl didn't even notice the phone was dim and when I left to Monterey she didn't ask for any of my information for when the phone would be picked up like my name and phone number. When I would walk up to the kiosk most of the time the girls would be on their phone and seem to not even notice me. I ended up not buying a refurbished phone from them and just left with my now unusable phone. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt but at the end of the day I'm sure I got played. Something so simple that was supposed to be 20 minutes ended up being hours with negative results.

As a photographer, I sometimes photograph female models who might be skimpily dressed. My computer is very important to me, as it is a vital tool in my business. I have a Lenovo desktop computer that after a year, windows 7 would crash on me constantly. For a low monthly fee, I would call Lenovo customer support and had them remotely work on my computer. Finally they decided that they could do no more over the phone or Internet, and they told me to take it to the nearest repair shop to be further diagnosed. Since AB was close by, that is where I went. They took their time greeting me at the counter, and they DID NOT do a diagnostic check in front of me as they've evidently done for others writing reviews here. It was a Friday, and they were too busy, which I understood that they needed to keep my computer over the weekend. I was stressed out and perhaps seemed out of sorts to them, as I made mistake in writing down the password for them. Within minutes, I came back in flustered and told them that I had given them the wrong password. I then gave them the correct one and left. So Monday I call and ask what they found, and that person at AB Computer told me that they are unable to repair my computer and to come pick it up. It seemed odd to me, but he also wanted to know how soon I would be there. Sure enough, a sheriff meets me at the entrance. He tells me that he has my computer and wants to talk with me about it. Apparently someone who works at AB Computer saw some images that disturbed them. The sheriff was quite nice, and showed me some of the images found of females in bikinis or lingerie that looked "young" to an untrained eye, but they are all over 18. He wanted to take the computer to the station and search some more. I gave him permission to do so. A short time later, he calls me to pick up the computer. The models were all over 18. However, there wasn't even any nudity, nor was there any pornography (adult or otherwise) to be found. That quickly became a closed investigation the same day. The sheriff told me never to use AB Computer again, and I am complying with his strong advice in that regard. Then I went back to getting remote servicing with Lenovo tech support, and they determined that the harddrive in my computer was going out. I'm proud to say that I replaced the harddrive myself, putting a new one I bought for far less than if I had my computer repaired at that AB Computer. I am writing this review on that very same computer. I'll never go back there!
