STEPHEN HOLCROFT
Owner
My name is Stephen Holcroft and I started Bluefish Computer Services in 2011. Based in Chichester Bluefish offers friendly, fast and reliable computer repair and maintenance services to small business and residential customers in and around West Sussex.

I have been a computer engineer for 22 years. After leaving the University of Hertfordshire in 1998 with an HND in Business Information Technology I worked for various large corporate companies around the country looking after their I.T systems.

In 2011, I took the decision to start Bluefish Computer Services and work for myself. I have helped thousands of residential customers from the young to the very elderly with all different levels of knowledge; I am CRB checked and a member of Trading Standards Buy with Confidence Scheme.

I support all kinds of small businesses with their I.T systems including architects, opticians, solicitors, schools etc… I like to think I have a patient and personable approach and I will always take the time to explain and answer questions in a no-nonsense way.

When I am not fixing computers, I enjoy sailing dinghies in Chichester Harbour with my family. I also enjoy mountain biking on the South Downs, walking the dog on the beach and a spot of gardening.

Excellent service, a nice friendly chap who was quick to respond to my enquiry, dropped my completely dead iMac off with Steve and had it back and fixed in no time. Good open communication about pricing and about how I wanted to proceed with the repairs. Very pleased, rather than having to buy a whole new computer Steve just repaired the broken components and I'm back up and running.

Bluefish recommended to us by my cousin and thank goodness! Steve rescued our ailing mac and returned it fully up to date with software and, with some other interventions, it is now much, much faster - in fact, as fast as we've known it! Friendly, flexible and speedy service and we are very happy to recommend. We will certainly use Bluefish down the line when the need arises.

We employed Bluefish's services to update our IT security systems. Steve really listened to what we were asking for and delivered exactly the right solution for us. He is also extremely responsive when we request day to day IT support. We highly recommend Bluefish.

We have worked with Bluefish for two years now and are very impressed with the service and expertise. Steve was very efficient in helping us with the office setup and is quick to respond to any problem. It's reassuring to know that he is there to help us when we need it. Highly recommended.

Cannot recommend blue fish enough! A very professional, quick and friendly service.

We just moved to the area and both mine and my partners laptops had issues. Bluefish took them in and gave us a price to fix them both, we ended up fixing one (broken screen) and selling the other laptop to them as not worth the repair cost. They also fixed my webcam (loose wire) free of charge and removed a login error that kept popping up. Friendly, local, professional small business, would highly recommend!

The next morning I rang Bluefish and they fixed the problem within an hour! Friendly, reliable and brilliant value for money. Would definitely recommend and use again.

A terrific service! I had trouble setting up my business email so I contacted Steve for help. He promptly replied to my message and fitted me in very quickly. I went along with all my devices and other queries. Steve made it look so easy! He is good guy and I will definitely be using his computer services again.

Broken laptop screen was replaced quickly with no fuss saving lots of heart ache and stress as it had all my life saved on it. I felt confident leaving it knowing it was in local safe hands. I would recommend and use again.

Steve sorted out my computer, completed the job on time and to the quote and even cleaned out the fan on my lap top. All is working properly - will reccommend him to anyone else who has computer problems. THANK YOU!

I would like to thank Steve for fixing my computer, this is the second time I have used Bluefish Computer and I will continue to use them.
Steve is a friendly and polite person and I recommend you to everyone. He is Fast, Reliable, professional and his prices are good too

I contacted Steve after my laptop was dropped, resulting in a cracked screen. Steve provided excellent service and a very fast turnaround. Would highly recommend!

I guess I'm lucky living just a few hundred metres from Steve, but I would travel much further to get this kind of service. Steve has baled me out on problems with my PC and laptop 3 times in the past 2/3 years. The problem is always quickly diagnosed and just as quickly repaired. Great service, thoroughly recommended.
Matt Saunders

Last week, my wife's photo processing PC failed. She uses it daily for work and needed it to be resolved quickly and reliably. Bluefish appeared high on my google search and had good feedback so I looked no further, and am very glad I didn't. Steve found the issue, re-built the PC with a new hard drive very quickly allowing my wife to get back to work.

We were kept well informed about the progress and what would be required to fix the problem and the bill at the end was extremely reasonable. Would definitely use again and would recommend to anyone in the Chichester area.
Kattie Florence

Highly recommend! Fast friendly service. My laptop was fixed in under 24hours at a very reasonable price!
Ellie Walker
Steve is brilliant! My computer stopped working late one night, the next morning I was at BlueFish chatting with him and he had determined the issue. You can’t ask for better than that! Although the computer couldn’t be repaired, Steve offered some great advice. He also did a super and speedy job of transferring the data onto a new laptop and backing it up for me. I would definitely recommend Steve. He offers fab, friendly and reasonably priced computer repairs. Thank you!
Antony Parry
Steve did a wonderful job recovering and recuperating an arthritic desktop PC and a very slow Mac. The diagnosis was swift and specific, and so was the estimate. Both jobs were done rapidly and to great satisfaction. Thanks for a great service.
Mrs Harper
My PC was infected with fake security software which blocked my internet access and kept making windows pop up which tried to sell me products. Stephen arrived and quickly identified the problem and cleaned the virus from the PC, he also advised me on some steps to take to prevent it happening again. Overall I was very impressed with the speed it was fixed and the cost which was very reasonable, many thanks!
C. Taylor
Steve at Bluefish Computers is efficient and reliable. He is friendly and approachable and tackles small and large projects with equal enthusiasm. Steve is able to talk to non-techies without using jargon and has been an enormous help as I develop my business. A big thank you as well for fixing laptop immediately over Easter Holidays.
Richard Berry
We would definitely recommend Bluefish. We picked them out of a search because their feedback was excellent. Our experience was similar. Steve is a reliable, helpful communicator. Prompt in his response, accurate in his judgement of the problem, very competetive and flexible in his pricing and knowledgeable about his trade. If your computer is “bust” and you live in the Chichester area look no further!
Jim & Jackie
Steve at Bluefish promptly repaired our PC after the screen became completely detached from the keyboard, (except for some wires), following a long drop onto concrete! Another time, our screen went completely white! – Both times we thought it was the end of the road for our PC. – He had it running again in no time! Less expensive than we thought; so, fast and cost effective! Pleasantly surprised
Debbie Deeney
Steve, you are a legend. Seriously thank you. It’s bad enough giving the HMRC money but using their very non user friendly systems generally sends me over the edge. Thank you so much
Chris Rose
Thanks Steve – everything working again as it should. I must thank you for the speed of service too; far better service than the IT department of the last company I worked for…
Chris Jervis
Dear Steve
I just wanted to express my great appreciation for the help you gave us with regard to the Hotmail/Outlook problem this week. You sorted it out incredibly quickly, and I had already spent a great deal of time on it myself, as well as liaising with Microsoft Support. Thank you, and I would happily recommend you to friends for any IT support work they need.
Terry Holden
Steve Holcroft from Bluefish Computer Services gave me an absolutely brilliant service when I was recently suffering from windows 10 problems on my new laptop. The day before I had spent nearly a whole day in contact by chat line with Microsft Support and they had been unable to resolve the main issue. In desperate need of a solution I called Steve and he immediately looked at the problem and resolved it in about 20 minutes flat.

As I said to him at the time it was a big credit to him that he had resolved a problem in 20 minutes which Microsofts own technical people could not resolve in many hours. Thanks Steve for the excellent service I am more than happy to recommend you to others.
Jo Eden
Since contacting Bluefish Computers a few years ago, Steve has helped me in the most professional and sensitive way. Computers made me nervous! Steve’s individual tuition has been excellent and my confidence has really grown. At the same time Steve maintains both my husband’s and my computer and nothing is ever too much trouble. Without doubt, contacting Steve is the best IT decision anyone can make.
