Thanks Servicebyte for doing a great job in repairing my damaged laptop. Not only was it a very competitive price, the repair was carried out speedily as well. What's more they were very friendly and helpful. My laptop is now working perfectly. I'm so pleased to have found a company I can trust, and will certainly use them again in future.

Reviews about «Forum Computers (Lincoln) Ltd»
Forum Computers is the only computer repair shop in Lincoln. That was able to Repair graphics card, I've asked ask all the other repair shops in Lincoln and I have received many incompetent reply back from the other shops.
Forum Computers was the only shop that sent a professional email with with the know how & affordable prices. I highly recommend taking your devices to them to be fixed.
2019.07.24 15:19
I was advised too take my sons laptop here by my sister and her husband we had tried all sorts too fix it but nothing worked.
I took my sisters advice and took it here, it was a little bit out of my way so I was reluctant too however it was completely worth the trip!!!
My sons laptop was fixed within 24 hours in fact they had fixed it within about 5!!! The service was really really good! The price was a fair price also £99 and that is with an antivirus and some other perks!!! The staff all really polite and well presented, absolutely lovely manner and customer service skills!!!
I would highly recommend them and will use them from now on.
It’s been a pleasure keep up the good work.

Thanks guys!
2019.03.12 18:08

Reviews about «Computer Clinik»
I really like this guy. Fixed my ancient, clapped-out machine perfectly and it's chugged along ever since. Very helpful guy and inexpensive when you consider how much technology can cost these days. Recommended.
2019.08.13 12:50
Following a recommendation I took in my MacBook as it was beginning to slow down. Nick explained the likely cause of the problem and the cost to solve it. I was expecting a wait of a week or so but had it back within 5 hours. Excellent service. Thoroughly recommend.
2019.08.13 08:43
Used the Computer Clinik to sort out the problem with my old laptop. They did, taking the time and patience to explain to this computer idiot what needed doing. Also importantly for an OAP they didn't charge the earth.
Many Thanks.
2019.07.20 14:20
Excellent and helpful staff with prompt and quick service
2019.08.12 08:11
I had a deadline and a misbehaving laptop. I took it to Computer Clinik when they opened. Despite being very busy, they were sympathetic, clear and fast. I had a fully functional laptop by that afternoon, and it had been fixed in the most economical way possible. Brilliant service. Couldn't be happier.

Reviews about «Springbok Computers LTD»
Only went in for a mouse but saw they had some ex corporate machines. They fired one of them up, showed me it was all working and I bought it for a great price. Service was fantastic, no pressure, just friendly helpful staff - no hesitation to recommend to anyone
2019.06.27 20:14
Brilliant shop! When my old computer was a write off, they saved all my data from a death worse than fate!! :)
They were also friendly, professional, and reassuring - they clearly knew what they were talking about. And they absolutely lived up to their promise of "no geek-speak" - they explained things in a way that even a technologically challenged person like me could understand!
Excellent service all round! I highly and heartily recommend them! :)
2019.05.21 03:29
These guys are amazing. I will never go anywhere else! Not only do they know their stuff but they are a fantastic friendly team and just so helpful! Can’t recommend highly enough!
2019.01.23 21:42
Ten out of ten for this company, they repaired my desktop at an excellent price, staff were A1***
2019.06.04 10:38
Nice and friendly staff - however incompetent.
Came in for an inspection because my PC was not booting up. After a day they called me and said they are 100% positive its the RAM - so this made me run and spend extra 80 pounds for ram which still didn't help the PC.
Turned out it was a dead CPU and the RAM works just fine now. They even said that they took the RAM out to different machines and it stil didn't work - but it appears that magic fixed it on my way back home.
This shop is okay if you want simple things done like installing a harddrive or cleaning a laptop - I wouldn't trust them doing anything more complicated anymore.

Reviews about «Lloyds Bank»
Made a careless error signing up for something I didn't want and only realised when I got my bank statement. Went into the Forum branch , my local, and they made a couple of calls and it was all cancelled without any loss of cash from my account. Most helpful and pleasant without making me feel stupid ! Can't rate this busy branch enough.

Staff are lovely, queues can be a bit long and the store can be full but there’s always someone to talk to. Great place
2018.05.29 19:15
Certain staff member needs a lesson in customer service and a smile.
In fairness 'he' answered my query but left feeling like a unappreciated customer.
2018.08.23 12:51

2017.03.16 19:28
Only two staff behind the tills during huge lunchtime queue. Santander you are FAILING in your professed claim to "speed up customer service". 20 minute wait today- not amused
2017.11.14 12:33
Never waited to long but best afford lunch time,staff always friendly but the place seems to be getting smaller plus the rates are on a downward scale

Reviews about «TSB Bank»
After years of being able to take dogs onto the branch on Bank St, I took my pug in just to deposit some cash in the machine and got bellowed at from across the counter 3 times (I didn’t realise she was talking to me the first times) shouting you can’t bring dogs in here, I questioned this and got told no and to remember this in future. Feeling rather embarrassed in front of a bank full of people I left, only to find out that the cashier that said this to me only turned a blind eye to a fake £20 note she found whole counting money out for someone, her words were I haven’t seen that wink wink
2019.07.27 07:35
Small and friendly, staff are very approachable. also have tablets in store if you want to do online banking at your own pace. Very rarely busy.
2017.06.20 13:53
Very nice service, professional approach to the customer, definitely better service than in Lloyds and Westbank. I am happy to choose this bank. I recommend
2017.11.27 16:19
Good bank but customer service is very slow and you can never get through to the bank when you phone.

If your in a rush don't come here . Customer service sadly lacking .

Reviews about «Lloyds Bank»
Public service was really poor and showed a lack of common decency and very bad attitude
2019.11.30 13:28
They were very helpful when I went to set up my student account! Especially Zoe who had a kind patient attitude; usually hate the atmosphere of banks but this one has a much friendlier one than usual. Not forgetting the useful ATMs and cash deposits too.
2019.02.17 20:25
Mainly used just for the ATM, but friendly service when I’ve been inside.

Reviews about «Nationwide Building Society»
To small a branch and not sufficient staff. Had to wait 10 minutes in the queue to be told to see an advisor to simply open a fixed bond.
Then waited 40 minutes, but had to leave to pay for the parking, transaction was not done.
2019.10.31 17:49
Best building society to be with. I’ve been a member since I was 13 or thereabouts. No problems at all.
2019.11.01 16:40
Great little bank but I wait ages to be served in the queue it was only the other week I waited over 25 mins in the queue just to speak to someone and to take some money out of my bank account if it wasnt so long waiting then I would rate it 5 star staff are always very friendly helpful but not many staff about
2019.12.30 15:44
There are always members of staff offering help but never able to give help. They just put you in a queue for someone else. Today the someone else served someone who walked in while I was waiting.

Reviews about «HSBC»
I drove 20 miles to my nearest bank today to pay some money into a business account. The lady on the help desk was so rude. I asked to pay in some money which had a few coins but they dont take any change on a Saturday. She never even asked if I had something else to pay in. Why would a bank not take money? Very unhelpful and very rude. If this is the attitude and manner in banks then no wonder banks are closing.
2019.09.14 17:20
My god, pathetic bank. Go elsewhere.
2019.10.22 14:26
Went in to help my friend reverse a fradulent transaction and the customer service representative was quite rude during the exchange. She did assist in reversing it however she was quite blunt and dismissive, not helpful during a stressful event such as this.
Very disappointed in the customer service, to the extent of considering switching banks.
2018.11.02 14:30
Lovely staff, helped me out even though they were closing in 1 minute! Thank you HSBC Lincoln, really appreciate it!

Reviews about «NatWest»
Hideous customer service! Never been questioned before over insignificant matters. I work in the industry so knew the process, however the women capable of making me feel this had the audacity to question my position. Ignorant!
2020.01.23 10:38
Very helpful staff, comfortable waiting area. # Then I went to the Mint Lane Community Centre for lunch & some Grocery shopping.
2019.03.25 00:00
Hugely disappointed. Opened a joint Rewards application and we came into this branch to submit our IDs/signed letter etc. Was told everything would be fine. Guess what....... 3 weeks......... later no comms nothing.............the branch messed up! nothing received by applications team. Wasted our time. We pray our photo documents are not still sitting on someone's desk or the coffee room!
2018.10.12 11:07
I have had a current account with NatWest for over 60 years, it has moved with me for numerous addresses, UK and International.
Recently I lost my cheque book and requested a new one in a letter mailed around 14Dec2015, it has not arrived at my USA address yet, AND no communication from Bank with any queries.
Also I want to close my account at Lincoln since it will no longer be used as a cash source for when I am in UK. For some reason the staff have not contacted me when arrangements were made to call within a 2 hour period on a given day. The bank seems to be absolutely non-co-operative, no call received with less than 10 minutes left.
SERVICE IS TERRIBLE!!
2016.01.20 14:51
Good central bank, this location is good - staff have always been very helpful, but some could stand to be a bit friendlier. Always very clean and ordered, and helpful service

Polite and friendly service. Can get busy 1st thing and end of the day. But usually manage to get seen quickly. No complaints from me
2019.03.27 05:23
Super handy location. And always friendly and helpful staff.
Just a shame that you have to phone a call centre to book an appointment. It's not ideal to have to talk to someone in India who doesn't seem to understand English very well.
2017.09.06 08:58
Use this Bank since it opened - staff great, always helpful!
2018.06.12 14:28
i have been trying to get in touch with the Tritton Road branch & have also tried
to get in touch with the bank in Asda.
It seems there is only one number & its like talking to a brick wall, its so infuriating
these days not to be able to speak to our own local branch without being put through endless hoops & trying to answer endless questions about things we have never heard
of via an Asian call centre.
All these Banks have telephones so why are customers not allowed to access them.
After all, without our money there would be no Banks therefore, no jobs, so why are
we treated like unwanted aliens?
2014.09.22 15:51
Went into the branch to pay a cheque in, unfortunately had left my spectacles in the car, but the assistant said not to worry they would process it, and gave me a receipt, the receipt is for roughly two hundred pounds less than the value of the cheque, care and attention to detail required.
i shall be going back to the branch to see what has been credited to my account.

If there is no decent PC repair shop in your area, send you storage device to data recovery lab from the nearest post office. You can pay for recovery services or software registration at any bank.

- The program for analyzing and restoring the history of web browsers.
Data recovery in the laboratory will cost from £149 and last up to 2 weeks.
Stop using the device where you used to keep the deleted data.
Work of the operating system, installation of programs, and even the ordinary act of connecting a disk, USB drive or smartphone to the computer will create new files that might overwrite the deleted data - and thus make the recovery process impossible. The best solution would be to shut down the computer of power off your phone and outline an action plan. If turning off the device is impossible, try to use it as little as possible.
Make up a list of devices where the necessary files have been saved.
Try to remember the chain of events from creating the files to deleting them. You may have received them by email, downloaded from the Internet, or you may have created them on another PC and then brought them home on a USB drive. If the files in question are personal photos or videos, they can still be available on the memory card of your camera or smartphone. If you received the information from someone else - ask them for help. The sooner you do it the more chances you have to recover what is lost.
Use the list of devices to check them for the missing files, their backup copies or, at least, the chance to recover the deleted data from such devices.
