An unabashed plug for VANCELL Phone Repairs in Vancouver, BC, CA
I recently dropped my Z10 (I know, no protective case - duhh...) from full standing height onto the doorjam of my open vehicle door, from where it did a handspring out onto the pavement... in a rainstorm!
Long story short, no damage other than the external speaker wasn't working any more. Even after slowly drying it out, it was DOA.
So I looked up cell phone repair places on Google search, and one of the ones near the top of the search was VANCELL Phone Repairs in Vancouver, BC Canada. I looked at their website and found a button that said, "Repair Your Phone Today >"
I clicked on that and was taken through a few screens that gathered information about the damage, and when I finished that it took me to a screen that told me exactly how much it was going to cost me to fix it (a much smaller amount than I was expecting) and a statement that I could mail it in, and it would take the time of the return mail to get it back, or I could take it in and they would (get this...) FIX IT WHILE I WAITED!!
Well OK! The next day I swung by their shop and they did just that - fixed it while I waited. 40 minutes from the time I walked in the door until the time I paid the technician the exact amount guaranteed on the website the day before, and that included a few minutes of BS'ing with him about his incredible service.
I couldn't believe it... they 1) had the parts, 2) knew exactly how to install the parts, 3) actually put me at the top of the priority list as soon as I handed the busted phone over, and 4) did the job for the price quoted at the end of the website's diagnostic screens the day before!
Cool huh?
