I contacted Dale as I was looking to change my gaming PC into a new case and while I'm fine with adding fans etc I wasn't confident with moving the entire internals to a new case.
Dale was very responsive, he got back to me almost immediately and a couple of days later my case arrived. I dropped it off with Dale and in less than 2 hours it was ready to go.
It's now all plugged in and running perfectly!
Dale has also helped with advice on potential upgrades to my rig as I'm still relatively new (while slightly competent) to PC gaming having always used consoles before. Once I'm ready to upgrade my cpu and motherboard and such I will definitely be contacting Dale to help! Couldn't recommend his service enough, he didn't talk to me as if I didn't have a clue and he also didn't bombard me with over complicated stuff either. Thanks Dale, I really appreciate your help!

I contacted IT Reliance Computer Services after my all-in-one decided to give up and show me the Blue Screen of Death. Dale immediately responded to my enquiry and presented me with some options. Within two hours I was dropping my computer off and, before I had even got home, Dale had assessed the problem and come up with a plan. He waited for my approval - giving full costings - and then within two hours it was completed and ready to collect. It now works better than ever - really good service and so quick and easy. Huge thanks.

After getting myself in a jam with my iMac I emailed Dale in the morning. He was super quick to respond and was happy for me to drop it off that day. True to his word he had my iMac back in the world of the living that very afternoon and for the quoted price. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dale to anyone needing IT support, he is knowledgable, professional and incredibly friendly. What a star!

Whilst having a custom gaming computer can be great fun, it can be a pain when something goes wrong as it's difficult to find someone able/willing to fix it. Mine recently stopped working without warning. Took it to a local computer shop who had it overnight but couldn't figure out what was wrong, so tried again and Dale offered to help. He literally had it for a few hours before re-contacting me to tell me he'd sorted it. Recommended a re-load of the OS, which he promptly carreid out and threw in a service for good measure all for £45. Great service and would recommend/will use again

Dale got in touch first thing in the morning after I reported my issue late then night before. I took my machine over to Dale and within a few hours he had identified the issue and gone through the options on how to proceed, giving pricing up front. The problem was fixed quickly and to a high standard. Dale really went above and beyond for me, as I'd been hospitalised with a knee injury and unable to pick up my machine. He kindly returned it to me instead. Highly recommend using IT reliance for all your computer woes.

Dale, at IT Reliance Computers has been a God send to me. He is more than competant, always pleasant and helpful. He helped me and my husband complete application for Covid Pass on Sunday, we could not have done it ourselves, too complicated for our age group. Also keeps my Lap top up to speed. Nothing is too much trouble for this lovely man, and his charges are more than reasonable. Highly recommended.

Fantastic service from start to finish. I searched for a local IT expert as I had an issue that needed resolving quickly. Dale saw to me straight away, and gave me a clear plan of what was required to get my situation sorted. My laptop was back with me the next day complete with a new hard drive Installed, a full clean and virus software installed.
He also sorted my damaged hard drive and dealt with the third party for me, my damaged hard drive will be repaired and all information and files saved. Excellent service for a great price. Would highly recommend.

Dale offers a professional service with a skill to break down computer terminology so it's easy to understand. He responded very quickly to a late email on Friday night and issue dealt with on Saturday morning. Great feeling to have someone with that knowledge on your side. Thank you Dale for all your support.

Firstly can I just say, I am not very good with technology, in fact I am very limited. The service that I received from Dale was exceptional. He put me completely at ease and talked me through the problem that I had. The problem was sorted later on the day that I took it to his premises. I am very grateful to him and if I have further difficulties, I will not hesitate to contact him.

I have contacted Dale from ‘IT Reliance’ on several occasions regarding help with computer queries and he always gives a fantastic service. He is very knowledgeable and responds to my messages quickly and nothing has been too much trouble. I recently presented Dale with a list of my specifications for a new laptop and within days he had sourced me the perfect one, all set up and ready to go and at a reasonable price.
He is always polite and respectful when visiting my property and is on hand to answer any further questions I may have. I would highly recommend his company – IT Reliance Computer Services.

Fantastic service from Dale. I had a very old desktop computer that had been gradually failing. It then gave up altogether. I was worried that documents and photographs were lost forever. Dale retrevied them and installed them on a new desktop. A laptop was also sorted. The cost was very reasonable and was completed within 24 hours. Dale even contacted me a couple of days later to ensure everything was ok. I can definitely recommend Dale to sort out your computer problems.

Dale was friendly and helpful throughout. He is very knowledgeable and gave me three options to consider regarding my computer upgrade. He didn't push any of the options but gave helpful information from which to make a decision. Me speedily fulfilled my choice (a new computer) and transferred all the data from my old computer! He is very approachable and I feel comfortable in asking him any post sale questions. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

I rang Dale as my laptop crashed and I use this for work so I needed it fixed quickly. He arranged to collect the same day and have a look at it. Within a few hours I had a prognosis of what was wrong and a plan in place to fix. All this was done in a really quick time frame. My laptop is better now than when I first bought it!! Value for money was excellent and cannot recommend Dale highly enough.

Huge thanks to IT Reliance for repairing my PC’s black screen problem so quickly and reassuringly this morning and for helping me with up-to-date AntiVirus protection too. I can't recommend IT Reliance highly enough. Dale has helped me out several times over the years, always with a speedy reply, efficient and friendly service and at very competitive prices. He takes time to explain what he’s doing and why and gives me advice and tips along the way too. Thanks Dale!

Dale came out to sort out a long list of issues we had with a home PC, MACbook and IPad. Couldn't be happier with the help he provided. He got everything sorted in one day and cleared up various problems we had including dealing with data transfer, backups, slow running PC, Macbook connectivity and also provided helpful advice on where to source printer cartridges and other supplies
Erika Drewett
was really happy with the whole service from start to finish. Dale knew within seconds of listening to the laptop that it was probably the hard drive and was correct. He took it away on Tuesday evening and it was back repaired on Wednesday evening. The flexibility of the home appointment times is a big bonus and the price was very fair. I would recommend IT Reliance to others and will definitely call them in future if I have any problems. Thank you, Erika.
Paola Catapano
Fantastic same day service, problem immediately recognized and fixed it within 24 hours. They also provide a full service, so our computer is now fixed, upgraded and as good as new!.. Well, actually better! We thought we would have to spend a lot of money to buy a new computer, but instead we've got everything sorted for just 50 pounds.. Amazing! They even gave us additional free advice about how to optimize our netbook which is now twice as fast! We would absolutely recommend IT Reliance to everybody!

Dale provided a brilliant service. I had two laptops that needed sorting out (various problems) and after wasting hours trying to sort it myself I admitted that it needed somebody who knew what they were doing. I looked on Retford Information Page for recommendations and contacted Dale Robinson. He provided me with a quote, came and collected the laptops that evening and brought them back the next morning.
Upon returning them he went through everything he had done and made sure that the initial issues were all working before leaving. Great service and a very good price. My only regret is not contacting him before now.

I contacted Dale at around 18:30 on a Sunday evening. I left a message on his answer phone expecting a reply at some point on Monday however he contacted me within about 20 minutes to ask me how he could help. Soon enough we had organised to drop my machine off first thing Monday morning. I dropped my machine off and gave him an update of the issue, he was friendly and gave him my number to contact me at work if necessary.
Later he called me to tell me he had fixed the issue and I could pick it up whenever. I asked him if he could give my machine a good clean while he was at it and he agreed. I picked it up later that day and it works great and is much quieter than it was before. I had an additional issue which he helped me troubleshoot over the phone and had it sorted within minutes. There was no charge for the over the phone troubleshooting and I was very pleased with the cost of my repairs. I would recommend him to anyone.

Wanted more memory a hdmi port and data from a really old desktop putting on a not as old desktop. Had helpful advice and was advised to get a reconditioned unit as would be cheaper, faster and more upto date. We are very happy with the unit, very helpful and great customer service will definitely use again.

I had 7 weeks of little or no internet at home and my service provider had failed to identify the problem or provide a decent service level. In desperation I googled local IT help and found Dean. A time was arranged for a home visit and Dean came round after I had finished work which was handy for me. Dean was polite, friendly and very thorough logging each step of his investigation for my service provider.
After just over 30 mins he found the fault and rectified it with a loaned router and cable (where the fault actually was - cable) I was charged £30 which I thought was terrific value which included his time and travel. I would definitely recommend Dean and IT Reliance as a quality plus service which is becoming rarer and rarer these days. Thank you Dean.

Moved from London a few years ago and found it almost impossible to find a reliable computer technician. I couldn't afford to have my time wasted with the computer away for days sitting on a bench with an unknown (probably inflated) bill at the end of the day. Dale was recommended by a friend, and now, I would not go anywhere else. He has done upgrades for me, resolved software issues and carried out mechanical/physical repairs.
The cost has always been transparent from the outset and far less that I had anticipated. I have never been less than over the moon with his skill and professionalism!!! On top of this he is a really nice bloke who is partial to the odd cappuccino and a chat. If you have a computer issue do yourself a favour and ring Dale first. You'll be glad you did!

Needed a big clear out on my I pad to free up space. Dale dealt with this very quickly and explained what he was doing and why. Also took my husband's notebook as it was really slow. This was sorted out and he upgraded the memory, as well as putting in a free virus checker. Can't recommend Dale highly enough. I would not hesitate to use him again.
