I have fixed the screen guard and there was large bubbles on it even after following the installation steps.

I have fixed and used screen guards and I'm familiar with the method to fix it on different phones. This I ordered to fix on my own phone and I should say the screen guard had plenty of large ( not small ones) bubbles beneath it which was not disappearing even after trying to eliminate by finger pressing on it.

I tried to remove and refix but he screen guard was broken. It was a total waste of money for me not because it broke but because of the number of large bubbles on it.

Could not be worse

Could not be worse. Laptop repair price went from 200 too 570€. Leave that alone, they took my macbook with a new charger and lost it. After claiming they didn't take it and telling me right in the face that it's not on the system, they were shown the receipt that they did. They agressively had a go at me for not coming earlier and gave an old and dirty charger with non-Apple cables as a replacement. Shop manager was super-rude and didn't apologise even once. Behaved as nothing is their fault at all. One thing certain - can't trust these people with a repair: will be overcharged, your stuff will be lost and you will get snarked at.

Replacement iPAD Screen,Techstar Ballincollig

My son's school iPAD screen was crushed between books in his schoolbag. Didn't realise until the evening before school. Needed a bit of a rush job to get this fixed. Two guys I spoke to on the phone and in store were sound and this got fixed very quickly.

Cost effective, professional repairs

Repairs to my Note 9 were cheap, done quickly and with minimal issues.

The repairman initially broke the back of my phone by accident but subsequently repaired it for free.

Friendly and easy-going service, happy to recommend to anyone.

TOTAL SCAM! DON’T TRUST THEM.

TOTAL SCAM! Horrible experience they kept my MacBook for a month and instead of fixing it they broke my mousepad instead. When I asked for those 65€ refund the guy said to go back tomorrow and he would have given me my refund. 10 minutes later he called me on the phone and said: I cannot give you the money back, I can only give you a mouse or an item worth the same price from the shop. Absolute Scammers! DON’T TRUST THEM.

Hauewi phone screen broke so I brought…

Hauewi phone screen broke so I brought phone to castletroy branch for phone to fixed. A new screen was placed on phone. Less than 12 hours later the new screen had cracked. I took the phone back to the shop and the shop refused to do anything. They offered to replace screen at a cost of 90euro. The first screen cost me 100euro. Complete rip off merchant avoid at all costs. The screen they sold me was clearly faulty as it cracked with few hours of purchase and with minimal use of phone.
