    At outside of Costco, the retail price is $930 plus the cost of a SIM card which could be an additional $25.

    The battery in my phone was almost dead. I called them, and was able to set up a "same day". I…read morewalked into the shop and there was a lot of people. Leading me to assume that I was going to be without my phone for a day. The counter girl asked for my email and said it would be about 30 minutes. The kid doing the work confirmed that yes, it would take about 30 minutes. So i handed my phone over and did some shopping. I came back about 30 minutes later, and sure enough. The repair was complete. While i was waiting in line to pick up my phone. The Tech kid was explaining to customer when its a good time to replace the battery, and when to get rid of the phone. Found their conversation enlightening. I paid the $80, with a thank you, and out into the world i went. The only knock I would give them is the credit card "surcharge". Which I was told about at the very beginning. So if you go there to get your phone repaired. BRING CASH... I will definitely be a repeat customer.

    I brought my iPad to the Don Quijote location on the same day I inquired about screen repair. I…read morespoke to Joy which was helpful in letting me know the estimated price as well as what locations are available for same day repair. I arrived to the location at around 12:30pm (time stamp in image.) I spoke to two employees. I talked to one employee that took a look at my iPad and confirmed the price and time to pick up (2 hours). I also confirmed again with the guy who managed the payment that it would take two hours. I show up around 4:45pm and no one greets me walking in. So I walk up (five minutes later) to the first employee and asked if the tablet is ready. She told me, "Oh you're early, I just have to put on the screen." It had been 2+ hours since I dropped off so I was confused but I said I will wait till they are done. I came back around 50 minutes later and the repair is not done yet. At this point it is already 5:45pm and it has not been finished. I wait until 6:18pm and she hands me it without apologizing for the wait or anything. I regret not saying anything about the time issue but it feels conflicting because of all the things I signed and I am not sure if I am in right to. The problem is not how long it takes, but it was the misinformation about when pick up would be. I confirmed with two people that it would be ready in two hours. It came out to almost 6 hours. I would not have minded dropping it off and coming back another time, if they had communicated that. But I was told it was 2 hours so I waited there, standing in the store and not wanting to rush the employees. The repair itself is excellent but the customer service was conflicting. I paid $329.84 and expected quality care. I do wish I had a better experience because it seems others do.

    As a long time (very clumsy) T-Mobile customer, I've had my fair share of experiences with T-Mobile…read morestores, employees, and small phone repair shops. Therefore I can say with confidence that T-Mobile Simply Prepaid is by far the best spot to take care of all your needs! I've visited the shop more times than I'd like to admit for everything from setting up a new service plan, to getting my iPhone speakers replaced, to fixing baby puke related water damage, to replacing (several) broken screens, and they have never disappointed! Hyo is the manager and has helped me out the most. He's always so friendly and accommodating when I come in with a problem, and is very knowledgable and patiently answers any questions that I have. The only downfall is that he's a Dallas Cowboys fan.. hehehee just kidding :p Any who, I've recommended many of my friends and family members to here also, and they too always leave happy. They're available for you to pay your phone bills, get new plans and phones, and fix phones so it's pretty much a one stop shop! Will definitely keep coming back.

He presented me with clear options, empowered me with digestible knowledge, and had impressive insights for me paired with relevant recommendations. They were caring and took initiative to get 2nd opinions from colleagues to pursue the best possible answers for me. Waika is the reason I would return to this store.

I walked out of the store slamming the door cause they're incompetent of doing their job correctly I'd fire everybody on that job. When I first walked into the store, my phone had coverage for any damages or if the phone got broken when I left and came back three hours later, the phone no longer had coverage

    Wednesday March 25, 2026 I used the Spectrum chat to describe the problem that we were having with…read morethe 2 cable boxes of always having to reboot or restart the cable boxes in order to watch tv every time. It was frustrating and a headache! It was highly recommended to make a reservation with the location that you plan to visit. The earliest appointment was for the next day Thursday March 26, 2026 at 5:45pm. I took the 7:00pm appointment and they close at 8:00pm. We walked in and the place was full of people. On the screen showed 32 people on the walk in wait list!! I checked in at 6:45pm for the 7:00pm which is the 15 minutes recommended on the iPad? 6:50pm, we were helped by SAGE a very friendly sales associate? He asked for an I.D and started the process of getting what we needed the replacements of the 2 cable boxes. SAGE talked and worked fast at the same time which made it go by so fast. It was a very nice and comfortable first experience. By 7:10pm and only in 20 minutes we were walking out the door with what we came for. We went home and set it up and it's all good again. Can watch tv again. Lol.

    I visited the Spectrum Ala Moana location twice--once as a walk-in and once with a scheduled…read moreappointment. My first visit was on a Wednesday around 10am. I hadn't made an appointment, so I left my name and number as instructed and was told I'd receive a text when I was 5th in line. That text never came. After waiting a while with no updates and no one available to ask for help, I gave up and booked an appointment online. On my second visit, I came back with a scheduled appointment. You can only check in 15 minutes before your time, and until then, you're basically stuck waiting. There's nobody at the front desk to answer questions or help you out, which is super frustrating--especially if you just need to ask something simple. Forget about getting assistance unless you're checked in. Once I was checked in, I was helped by Brian, who was amazing. He was kind, patient, and efficient. We were in and out within 10 minutes of our appointment time. Honestly, Brian was the only saving grace for the 4 stars. If I hadn't been helped by him and shown his kindness, this review would've dropped to a 1 or 2 stars. Pros: - Brian at Ala Moana was incredibly helpful and professional - Online appointment system is easy to use Cons: - Appointments fill up fast--same-day slots are rare - Walk-in system didn't work as promised (no text received) - No front desk support--can't ask questions unless you're checked in - Location is very busy, so expect some wait time even with an appointment If you can get an appointment and connect with someone like Brian, the experience is smooth. Just don't expect much help if you're trying to walk in or ask a quick question.
