The laptop that I was using as a spare lappy couldn't start up and so on 27 Jan i brought it to SLS to get a shop to try to get it repaired...
Went to level 5, and this man asked me what i want, is it that I want to repair my laptop, i said yes and asked him for a quote, he quoted $100 but agreed to get it done for $80. he said it will be ready the next day. I was thinking it should be ready after nearly a week, and yet he said it is not done yet. After calling for close to a month, finally on 17 Feb, he says they tried repairing, but failed and quoted ne $240 to get it fixed. I told him no.
I went down to get it on 18 Feb and i just asked for the laptop. he got it for me and I proceed to another shop to get a second opinion. That shop noticed that the charger port is missing and asked if i just had it repaired. I went back to the shop and he told his staff that they forgot the charger port. Its such a big piece of item, and yet they missed it. Which I think he had deliberately kept it hoping that I did not noticed.
I then went to another shop to get it checked and they quoted me $110 to get it fixed.
if $80 is not enough to fix it, tell me, dun promise and then say cannot and then jerk up the price.
The shop which I think is very dishonest is
A Star Computer Pte Ltd
1 Rochor Canal Road #05-05
Sim Lim Square
The man in charge is Rick Choy
Please avoid this shop and share this info, as it so happens a few customers who send their items there also dropped by and made exclaimnation that "so long already still not fixed?"
