A warm welcome as you walked in, hand gel outside, only one at a time in the shop with Perspex on both counters between you so you feel safe!I took in my Mac mini as it was running very slowly, has been for a while, a phone cal an hour later diagnosed a new hard drive was needed.Part ordered, my data transferred over to the new one and collected 2 days later. I was impressed with this service and would highly recommend Computer Buddies. Thank you for your help, now running on full power!

So happy! I thought I really damaged my MacBook Pro with water that spilled on it, and I just called them to see when I can have it checked. The person who answered the phone was really polite and helpful, he said what I should do, and just to go straight to their center. My laptop was checked in just a few hours and because everything was okay with it, a bit of water on the inside case, they haven’t charged me for it at all!
Not even for unscrewing the laptop or checking everything, which takes time. I am so glad I found your contact online! I hope that I will not need emergency help with my gadgets again, but if I will, definitely I will come to you! I certainly recommend you, thank you!

Thank you for your excellent service. No appointment necessary as advertised on the website, promised a call within two hours. Received a call within 2 hours. Offered a price to resolve and completion within the next hour. Accepted. Turned up in an hour, computer was ready and sorted for the price I was quoted. Everything that did not work is sorted.
I thought about the Apple store. Too pretentious not to mention too expensive and inflexible. Saw several other repairers in Chester. This one just looked better. Everything Computer Buddies offered was delivered along with great advise and friendly service. What more could I possibly have wanted. I have recommended you to others already and will continue to do so. Thank you for doing everything that you said you would.

Absolutely faultless! Not only did they fix my Mac from some bad water damage, but they recommended a new hard drive - the performance is incredible! I was super impressed with the professionalism, approachability and expertise of the team here. I would completely recommend this team and I know that if I ever have any other issues, I will head straight to this store!

The hard drive in my netbook broke after it fell off a table. I took it to Computer Buddies on Saturday morning. They replaced the hard drive, retrieved my data and basically got it back to how it was before. It was ready on Monday afternoon and the price was very reasonable. Fantastic service - I highly recommend. Thank you!

Excellent service. Helpful and knowledgeable staff sourced and replaced an awkward laptop CPU fan with a bad bearing at a reasonable price in good time, despite having to source the new part. Had an issue with the fan 7 months later (at no fault of Computer Buddies) that was resolved within 24 hours. Would highly recommend.

My desktop computer catastrophically broke last month, and I had no idea what happened to it. I took it into Computer Buddies on Friday under their "no fix, no fee" guarantee. They identified the power supply unit has failed. They have me clear and transparent costs. I asked them to source a particular make, and to upgrade the unit to a higher wattage. They were really flexible. The whole replacement was completed by the Monday. Great service, will definitely use again!

Took my broken, 5 year old Macbook pro in for repair. Ben rang me back to say it was an Apple issue and I should make an appointment at an Apple store, which I did. As I don't know anything about computers he could have just repaired it and charged me £100's of pounds, but he was honest and even gave me rintouts of my problem to show Apple. He wouldn't accept any payment for his time and effort. What a genuinely pleasant guy! I'll be back with all my computer problems from now on.

Once again Computer Buddies came to the rescue. Major issues with Wifi dropping out and problems with the USB ports on the laptop. Peter tried remotely and thought it had been solved but the problem persisted once he had left the remote connection. Usual thing, no problem when he was connected but once it was just me and this cyber petulant child then things went wrong again. Dropped the laptop off at the shop at mid day and had a text message the following morning to say it was fixed.
It seems there was a problem with the WiFi card and a conflict with another programme. Don't care whether its Ben or Peter that deals with your problem, but I can guarantee that it will be fixed,
Can't recommend them enough.

I'm a computer illiterate 63 yr old who decided to update his old computer and bought a all singing all dancing new one with Windows 10. Two months later with so many faults on it I went to computer buddies in Charles Street Hoole. Left it with them for two hours and when I picked it up they took the trouble to show me how to navigate my way around . So impressed with the service and value for money. 6/5 star rating. No hesitation in recommending these guys

A glowing reason for using independent shops. They fixed my blue-screened dead laptop full of irreplaceable data within a matter of hours at a very modest rate. Even re-installed an expired Microsoft Office as an added bonus. PC World quoted an extra £170 and a 14 day turnaround! Very friendly and professional, would 100% recommend Computer Buddies to anyone.
