Where to get cell phones repaired?

[civicluva]

I got a nice 8860 and don't want to have to throw it out. Where can I get it repaired?

[sabad66]

i think if you take it to your dealer where you got it from they should be able to do it

sometimes repairs on cell phones aren't even worth the repair...
dealerships most likely don't have a repair centre so call before you go
most dealerships if they are large enough have a service centre in one of their locations...
make sure you ask for a service centre
but the going rate for repair work is at least 60/hour.. our store is 72/hour plus parts... so I'd give it a second thought before repairing it

What's wrong with it?

the rogers store just north of chinook has a repair center, try taking it there to get a quote

Take it here....they can give you an estimate of how much it would cost to fix for a fairly cheap price (think it's around $15-20 for the estimate).

PCS Phone Repair
6039 Centre Street SW
252-5072

Don't be fooled by the PCS name...they do all kinds of repairs on all kinds of phones.

My Samsung A520 packed it in, The flash memory has most likely gone bad. PRL is missing along with the phone book.

No clue on where to get that hunk of garbage fixed.

i had the same problem with one of my phones, but considering you work for telus i assume you already took it to the dealer to ahve the firmware reflashed... thats what fixed mine, (although it was gsm)
