Just got the quotation back from the official repair shop in Madrid for the "nick" in the top right bezel . 221 euros including tax and p+p. It's an aesthetic thing, so at that price I'm going to pass. A pity but I can't justify it right now.

Don't blame you. That's pricey just for a little nick.

It’s also pricey for a Cinnamon, a Diamond or whoever else just finished on the main stage, at least in USD over here...

Paint works wonders.

Just treat that nick as a badge of honor to a life lived to the fullest.

But if you need a replacement battery for the Motion just search for an Alcatel A7 battery replacement! It has now been proven to fit and work.

Yep, I saw that in an earlier thread and that was thanks to you!

Hi,
It's not the screen, it's the cowl at the top that has the nick in it.

I've been quoted for the following part which I didn't recognise:
PRD-63737 PCBA MAIN BOARD 113 euros + 21% tax

I've just spoken to the technician and he said that since he couldn't get into the phone they also quote a complete reset of the phone and replacement of the main board.
It's so stupid. They only had to ask me for the code to get into the phone.
So, now they're going to get into the phone and only quote for the top cowl/bezel.

I'll have to get the phone back before the repair as they do a complete factory reset and update and I just remembered that there some voice notes I hadn't backed-up.

they've sent me the right quotation this time. It's 69 euros, so I'll be going ahead with the repair after all!!

Guess what? I just referred back to your original post and that crack is actually a part of the back cover! The top of the phone is actually incorporated into the back cover.. About 20euros..

and then they send another invoice for 54€!! I paid that by bank transfer, as their payment site hasn't worked for over 2 weeks.
Glad there's an official TCL brands service in Spain, but the service level needs to improve a lot. their name. Servicio10 seems like a misnomer!

Sorry I was too late to help you save all the waste.
