Frequently Asked Questions

We are not affiliated with Apple, we are an independent repairer and will not repair any devices on manufacturer warranty basis.

We do not use parts direct from the manufacturer, nor does any repair company who are not authorised by Apple as Apple do not sell genuine parts to third party companies. Instead we use OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and replacement parts.

Unlike some other repair shops at Pocket Geek Tech Repair we do not cut corners. We use OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and replacement parts which come with warranty, and all repairs are carried out by a fully trained and experienced repair technician.

If we carry out a full diagnostic into the issue affecting your device, we will charge a flat rate of £19.99. This cost covers the time invested by our experienced repair technicians and is included in the cost of any repairs we carry out.

No all repairs carried out by third parties will void your manufacturer’s warranty, however we do provide our own warranty for the repairs we carry out.
