10/10

My Blackberry Curve displayed a debilitating error message. Removing the battery, restarting, reloading the software, nothing was working. An online search described it as the 'message of death'. I took it into the retailer and was told it was unfortunatley about 30 days over its warranty period. They could mail it somewhere ( far away) and for a fee ( something over $100), it could be 'looked' at. I f it was fixable there would be more charges, of course.... but I could purchase another one for just under $350! Wow, what a deal. Still in need of a phone and not fond of either of those options I was browsing through the sorry selection of their cheapest 'flip' phones when a more helpful clerk said, you know, there is somewhere you can go that might be able to help..... She told me about Cell Phone Repair Calgary (CPR) at Southland Crossing. I took my phone in, told my tale of woe and was told to come back in 24hrs. Back I returned and there was by BB, alive and well again ( minus my Contacts unfortunately, but ... oh well). $49.99 plus GST and a major disaster avoided! Definitely reccommend.

My Computer had been struck by some sort of the 'pretender 'virus, the kind you get when you click on a link warning 'you have a virus, click on this link to fix' . I lived with the slow downs and annoying pop ups for a week or two and then finally whenmy computer just wouldn't do anything I had to get it fixed. I went to my local big box store and was told it would be 129.99 just to have a look at it - more to fix it. That seemed like highway robbery so I took a chance and phoned the Geeks on the Way as I had seen their car around my neighborhood. They sent someone over within 2 -3 hours. The 'geek' was a laid off IT person , way overqualified to fix my small computer problem, but with 2 kids and wife and a mortgage that made him more than happy to have the work. It took about 20 minutesto restore my computer, during which time I got to pick his IT brain with all my questions. All in all, a painless, comparitively cheap option. I would reccommend
