I thought I'd need to buy a new computer but I was recommended to go here. I'm so glad I was! Harvey fixed my computer in super quick time and for a a great price too. Thank you so much for this I will definitely be recommending you and will be using you again when I need help.
Well what can I say! Harvey has saved the day again. I sat on my lap top(yes I know, idiot). My lap top is my job and lively hood and when something goes wrong its literally the end of the world. Until you ring Harvey that is. This guy is a ledge. Cheap, efficient, fast. Just no messing around. I would recommend to anyone, you wont be disappointed. ;-).
Cracked the screen of my laptop and after calling round the majority of laptop repair services in Manchester decided to go with Harvey at fix-computers. Not only was he one of the cheapest but also offered the fastest service as I need my laptop for my business. From the start Harvey was up front and honest with me and kept me informed through out. As promised my screen was fixed within a couple of days and is as good as new. Overall I couldn't fault the service or price, Harvey clearly knows his stuff and is both thorough and informative, I will definitely be using them in the future - thanks Harvey.
GPU managed to fall out during transit and caused motherboard problems. Harvey managed to switch out the motherboard, re-installed the rest of my components, windows and did data recovery, within a week and for a fair price. I would definitely use him again, he provides a quality service! Thank you very much Harvey! - Sent from my now working desktop ;).
After the screen on my HP Pavillion DV9000 laptop went off, having done a bit of research I found out that this was a well known issue with the Nvidia graphics chip coming away from the motherboard due to overheating of the laptop through the way it had been designed. I knew it was fixable but for how long it would last was anyones guess and sometimes it was too late. Having looked on the internet for a reliable trustworthy repairer I came across Fix Computers and spoke to Harvey over the phone explaining what my issue was. He explained what my options were and that he would have a go at fixing it and right from the start I established what cost I was looking at (if it wasn't economically viable I would rather have put the much needed cash towards a new one)I specifically asked what would be the situation if it wasnt fixable and was told £30. I took my computer to Harvey Black on 4th April 2013 who attempted a fix on it and after 2 days of stress testing all seemed well, he had also cleaned out the fan (done free of charge) and got the disc drive working again after it went missing (software issue - done free of charge) he asked me if I would like the computer to run faster and a general tune-up carried out (he would charge £25 instead of the usual £40)so I agreed and all in all it cost £90 but after I got it home within 2 days it failed. I rang him up and told him the situation and he said bring it back and I will have another go at it. After having it over a week he attempted 2 fixes on it but both times it failed rendering the laptop useless so I asked Harvey to remove the hard drive and I would come and collect it. Having agreed at the start to the no fix fee of £30 I incorrectly assumed I would be going to collect my laptop and £60 would be returned to me. How wrong I was, after enquiring "what about the money" I got the response "oh you don't owe me anymore money"! So I explained what I meant and he said "well this is what I was saying"? The point is he at no time explained that re-attempting to fix my laptop would mean I would come away empty handed! So I'm left £90 down with a laptop that is in the same state as it went. NOT HAPPY AT ALL!Moreexpand_more
My girlfriend had an accident with some water on the keyboard, I thought I would do it, save the cost of a company doing it, by replacing the keyboard myself. It went very wrong. I had also done damage to the motherboard connection to the keyboard aswell. I called Harvey in my hour of need. In only a few short hours he had replaced the keyboard and it was working like new. I cant thank him enough. Hes something else, I would recommend him highly and will use him again in the future.
From a grateful customer: I called with one urgent problem on my laptop, and few other issues were fixed along the way. Very prompt response, excellent service (including pick up and return to your home, or repair at the client's house), Harvey is professional and efficient (yet doesn't make you feel like an idiot, as many computer techs do :)), and the service is very affordable too. Couldn't be happier, would recommend this to anyone Harvey, thank you!
We used fix computers having had numerous problems. We had used 3 previous local computer repair companies all who could not solve the issues we were having. I cannot fault the service received and would have no problem in recommending Harvey. We will be using him again on future projects.
Could not access websites easily and laptop was running slow, Fix Computers came out same evening, took laptop away, returned next day with PC in good order. Harvey spent time with me explaining what he had done, and left me with a service schedule so the fault should not occur again. Very pleasant person, would recommend gladly, in fact have done just that today to a friend with similar problem. B. Gould.
