Exciting News! We’ve added a new service to your phone repair options. “We Come to You” repair, where a repair technician in a fully-equipped van comes to your chosen location — home or work — to repair your phone. The option is based on your location, phone model, and type of damage and will be presented at the time you file a service request/claim if available. Most repairs can be done in an hour. The ultimate convenience!
