Hi Michael, Thank you for your feedback. I want to clarify that Cell Phone Fix (the guy next door) is not our store and has no connection with our pricing, parts, or customer service. He takes orders from customers and then hands the devices to someone else to repair, which can lead to pricing differences and quality issues. At our store, we fix your device right in front of you, using high-quality parts, and we fully stand behind our work. If anything happens within the warranty period, we take responsibility and make it right — something you won’t usually find when dealing with a middleman. Calling it a “scam” is a strong accusation, especially when the misunderstanding comes from someone outside our business. If you have any questions or want us to recheck your device, we’re always here to help. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing your experience. While we regret that you feel disappointed, we strongly deny the serious accusations made in this review. When your Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra was brought in, it was in a non-functional state (boot loop), and you specifically mentioned the need for data recovery. Our technician assessed the issue and determined that the only possible repair would involve replacing the data chip. Since data integrity was your top priority, we did not proceed with any repairs, modifications, or part replacements. The phone was returned to you without charge, and with all parts intact, as confirmed in-store. Unfortunately, repairing dead phones, especially with boot-loop or board-level failures, can be extremely complex. We understand your frustration, but implying that we swapped motherboards or stole parts is not only untrue—it’s deeply hurtful to a business that prides itself on honesty and professionalism. We also want to clarify that during our interaction, our technician “Z” was threatened with harm by the customer while I (Omar) was on speakerphone. Despite that, we stayed respectful and returned your phone as it was. To all future customers: we operate with

Q wriz, we apologies for any inconvenience you had to go thru. Most likely the situation was ur phone had no power or display, we can't check on a dead phone what are the other issue. That only happens if you want other parts to be fixed as well after the power on the device. Still stop by at the store and we will take care of you.
