Told we couldn't be helped that day 'probably'. The sense that we were in the way and a bother could not have been more clearly made . Will take our business where it will be welcomed. We were looking to pay cash for a new phone that day and sign up for more service. Will give it to another franchise Verizon entity somewhere else. Third time lack of welcome and inattentive service at this site. Never again

The owner contacted me and was extremely helpful and willing to resolve the issue, he set up an…read moreappointment for me to have someone look at the frame of my phone and either fix it (for real) or give me a full refund so i can send to insurance. The full fix was going to take days cause they'd have to gut the whole phone and on the phone this was never mentioned. I was told that because i also had a battery put in (which was aftermarket and had information smudged off of it in two places i noticed) that i would only be refunded $140 of $180. Sure you put in a new battery, but i cant really use it..i'm sending it to insurance (Which will cost me $200 deductible ). so i can have i truly fixed phone. I wish i could give a better review, but they weren't going to help me until i gave a negative one (initial offer was only %15 another 139 charge). And i'm still out $40 and right back where i was before. The initial person looking at my phone apparently thought the bend in the phone wouldn't effect another screen as it had the last. The actual technician seemed very knowledgeable. All in all unfortunate, but a huge hassle.

I brought it back to them to get the bottom screen fixed, and after I got it, while it senses taps, the touches are never in the right place, even with me calibrating it multiple times. Absolute waste of money. Their student discount, is abysmal, and the service is just so bad. More things are broken getting my device back, than what was originally needing to be repaired. I recommend looking at another repair shop and staying away from this one as much as possible. Spend your money on a better service, and for those who actually deserve it.

For the next few hours you will be slightly bored and will need to find something constructive to do. I suggest a nap, or twiddle your thumbs to make the time pass by faster. However, the first flaw presents its self after a few hours of getting extremely comfortable, when an employee awakens you and shows his lack of expertise. This is unfortunate as it was close to me giving it 5 stars.

Ultimately, Verizon does the job for us. I do very much like their online interface and app. Overall-- I've had US Cellar, TMobile and Verizon. Verizon is my fave of the three.
