Reviews about «RenewIT»
Since finding RenewIT in Balgreen Road, it has not crossed my mind to go elsewhere for my IT repairs, maintenance and upgrades. The service provided at RenewIT is expert, the options are clearly explained, and the approach is courteous, timely and competitively priced. Highly recommended!
2019.06.18 19:44
Fantastic service! Really helpful tec and extremely helpful. Looking forward to pick my laptop up just to chat to the guy haha
2019.07.04 15:01
We've been taking our office iMacs to Renew IT for a few years now. Great servicing - I think it's saved us a fortune in the longer run as we've been able to maintain our computers and upgrade them with new operating systems and memory. Reliable, friendly service. Thanks!
2019.05.01 10:27
Great service received from owner and IT technician. Very professional, with more than just technical knowledge, very people's person undesrtanding your concerns, fears and having a solution even if it means going the extra mile to keep customer happy. Would recommend to anyone. Let's re-new don't throw out.
2019.03.02 19:36
Fantastic service as well as a great owner. Could not have asked for more, very helpful and insightful.

Reviews about «SimplyFixIt Forrest Road»
I've relied on this team for several years now and they haven't let me down. Excellent customer service for my MacBook Pro, good quality repairs, and the refurbished / upgrades secondhand 2011 Mac they sold me several years ago is still going strong. I go to both the Forrest Rd and Waverley Steps branches and the staff and lovely, smart, helpful, people.
2019.07.26 08:10
Really disappointing. Went into the store in late December and asked for laptop with suitable spec (graphics card, ram etc) to handle light-medium video editing and light gaming. The guy working there recommended I buy a MacBook 2012 that they had for sale. He insisted this machine would be able to handle the job on multiple times of me asking to confirm. Got the machine and paid £800 or so for it. It was pretty slow from the start, however thought I’d give it a chance. Gaming didn’t work on it, it got incredibly hot and the graphics card couldn’t handle it. Then a few weeks after the 3 months warranty ran out, the hard drive packed up. Now I’m stuck with something that could potentially cost a small fortune to fix, around 6 months after I bought it. Really dissapointed in the service provided and a real waste of my money. 0/5
2019.06.29 17:43
I am very pleased whith their services. Next time I'm going to fix my laptop at their repair shop
2019.07.01 18:06
The staff was incredibly helpful and professional. They fixed my device just in time. Would recommend to anybody.

Always helpful and explains the problems clearly. Good price and good service.

Avoid this place at all cost i tried to repair the phone . but installed a non genuin screen which broke after 1/2 day of use
2016.09.03 11:43
I would recommend Flying Computers for your repairs and screen replacements. We take all our laptops, iPads etc to this shop and always get a professional job done quickly and at a very reasonable price.

Reviews about «SimplyFixIt Stockbridge»
Nice guys running the store, very helpful and efficient.
Got a new screen fitted to iPhone 7 - it's NOT as good as the original as it's clearly not as good a quality of screen nor it is as responsive to touch. Does the job though and decent price. Warranty for further replacements is a good option....for children :)
2019.06.12 21:45
As always, friendly, knowledgeable staff.
Great service, happy customer.
2019.07.04 22:05
Couldn't recommend these guys more highly, they are polite, helpful and do the job quickly and efficiently at the best price possible. This time they changed the battery in my iPhone and replaced the cracked screen all in less than two hours. Thanks
2019.03.26 13:38
Excellent service. Would definitely recommend
2019.07.17 11:07
The service was quick pleasant and effective and my laptop was returned to health in 48 hours and is now behaving as it should. I am very grateful for their service.

Reviews about «SimplyFixIt Waverley Steps»
Extremely poor service and eventually they couldn’t fix my laptop, took 2 weeks of time (though it was told that it will just 2 days to detect the issue) and service charge as well. and never called back, I had to track them continuously, I do not recommend this store at all.
2019.07.06 17:06
I have alreday been served by the shop assistant who wears glasses. He is rude, arrogant, he never says good morning, goodbye or thank you. There is nothing to trivialize about that: respect comes first. Last but not least: there is another shop that sells the same items, roughly 100 metres far from this one. Try to go to the other one because as a client no one wants to spend money to be treated like dirt by these small people
2019.08.03 09:24
Friendly and efficient service. Very knowledgeable.

Someone give to me an old billet 10 pounds in Edinbourg. All people told to me that is possible to change for any new in all post office and banks. Today at 12.30, one woman in this post office told to me that it is not possible, that only in bank, that only they change to me if I buy some product. Finaly after thinking 5 minuts, I,ll come back and I have bought 4 magnet to the man on the right side for all quantity but he didnt give to me invoice or ticket. I,d like the governrment investigate this situation. Thank in advant.

About four times in as many years we had to bring our business mail at the end of the working day to this office. The guy who seems to be the boss, although correct, has been hard-faced and the opposite of helpful. Every time.
2017.07.05 12:14
It was the best post office i've ever seen.I changed my old £ to new.
2018.12.08 10:29
I used the St Mary Street post office to mail out two wedding invitations that was being sent abroad. One to USA & one to mainland Europe. The envelopes were weighed, measured and after some humming and hawing, priced up.
2 months later the contents of the envelope which had been intended for Europe were delivered back to me with a brief note explaining that it had incorrect/insufficient postage.
Since it was decided to go for the more expensive option on both to be safe Id be wary of trusting the advice of this branch in the future

Fantastic post office, very friendly and went beyond what they needed to do in order to help. Best post office I've been to!
2019.10.15 13:17
Love using this Post Office. Before the main counter at the back of the shop opens later in the morning, the front counter of the shop can process your postage for you from 6 AM, I believe. (Perfect to drop by on your way to work.) Jay (who works on the front counter of the shop) is really helpful when it comes to choosing the right postage and packing. Stellar customer service!
2019.07.25 09:18
The only post office I’ll use
Very friendly and community based.
Looking after the community.
Good selection of stationery and cards.
Jay took my mums shopping to the car which was parked farther than what my mum could comfortably walk with the shopping.
It’s these little gestures that everyone in this premise do as a matter of course that makes it such a great place.
They deserve our support as much as they tend to look out for everyone else.
2019.02.25 15:58
Friendly and really helpful staff
Good selection of stationery and cards.
Was in a rush and the boss ended up serving me even before they had officially opened. Was much appreciated
Welcome to my new regular post office
2019.05.25 00:26
Very friendly and helpful people.
Also opens extremely early. 6am if I’m not mistaken. This has been a life saver.
Also started to do most of my banking here.
There’s other post offices nearer me. But I’ve started coming here regularly. This alone should give an indication of the difference in service.
Also helps that I can do most things before going to work. Which is a big bonus. As every other post office I’ve been to does not open till 9.
This post office and news agent has got my support and custom

Reviews about «Edinburgh City Post Office»
Just needed to say staff were extremely helpful to me this morning in this post office. Came in just after opening dumped all my bags on the floor just about took up half the shop and I was in a rush to catch a train. Staff helped me organise my parcel and customs forms very efficiently and proffessionally even though I was somewhat rushing them, have me some tape and labels for free. I know some post office workers can be rude or unhelpful just for the sake of it but these guys were the complete opposite so commendable effort to them especially two days before Christmas ✌️
2019.12.23 19:05
Staff really nice, specially Philip who has been really helpful and found the best solution for me! Thank you very much
2019.12.06 11:27
Toooooooooooooo busy..
Always waiting waiting waiting..
Staff was helpful but they need more staff I think
Even at 3:30 pm it was fully loaded.
And token system is completely new.
I just sat for 30 -40 minutes without any token.
Avoid if your in rush.

Signs everywhere warning you not to use before paying however payment counter is also acting as the post office.. Go somewhere else, or wait in line for 5-10 minutes to pay for an envelope whilst a queue is building up behind you which you will have to rejoin after writing the address ect.

I can't believe the post office staff typed completely wrong receiving address for my parcel than what I have wrote. And the reference number that was issued was not working at all. It was not acceptable. And the customer service did not provide any helps at all. Don't sent anything by royal mail anymore.

2018.12.23 19:10
It’s so helpful to have this post office opened until late, but the middle aged man with glasses that works there is one of the rudest I’ve ever dealt with. If you don’t like dealing with people, especially in this busy time of the year, just change job. Almost makes me miss the customer service in my home country, which, by the way, is almost non-existent.

Went in to exchange euros. My friend also exchanged after me, and the lad gently pointed out he could give us a better rate if we joined the amounts to surpass 500 pounds worth. He even reversed my first transaction and done it again for the full amount, which resulted in a 4%better rate!

I don't know why they advertise as opening at 7am! I've been there at 8.30 and given poor excuses. They are just rubbish time keepers. Be honest and advertise the right times. You are just doing the Post Office name no favours.

Brilliant new post office. Quicker and friendlier service than the old Crown office at Morningside. Seem keen to serve quickly - rarely a significant queue.
2020.01.08 10:14
The people who run this post office used to own the Bruntsfield post office, which I've been using for years. They are lovely, friendly, and offer a great service. I am sorry to see people in the reviews casting what amount to racial slurs that have everything to do with their own prejudice and nothing to do with the job done by the owners of this post office.
2019.11.09 13:12
The owner or manager of this post office is absolutely horrible! So rude, no sympathy or kindness for customers. The queues are always huge and this man is not helpful at all. He is not polite to customers, I can’t believe he runs a business. Just a very nasty man. I’d much rather go out of my way and post things in town, or just use couriers from now on.
2019.12.17 19:50
The Post Office as an organisation should be ashamed to have their name and brand associated with this venture. Poor, runs and unprofessional ownership. The staff who work there try and do a good job, but are hindered by the way the place is run.
2019.10.12 13:40
Would give 0 star if I could. Walked in receive money through MoneyGram. After 10 min they had system crash, staff made me feel like it was my fault. Tells me to call international MoneyGram service and deal with it my self! When I called to international costumer service they said they can't see anything wrong. I even past my phone to the post office stuff. Eventually costumer service guy asked me to go to the difference MoneyGram service which was in Tesco! Still can't believe how rude post office 'lady' was!!! Waisted whole 40min! Not happy at all!!!

He also huffs at me when I ask for proof of postage on UK parcels. And tells me that 'it doesn't do anything'. Awful service.

Remarkable rude, I use it often as its close to my office, but after today I'd rather walk to Ocean Terminal. Totally unnecessary to be this way, in what is a customer service role - even if he is the owner. A total d1ckhead. I'll never be back.
2018.07.17 09:21
I would absolutely echo other reviewers concerns about the owner (the older bald man) being without any social skills. I found him unnecessarily difficult, rude and discourteous. These seem very bizarre behaviors, for someone to have, who has actively chosen to be in a public-facing role. Why bother getting frustrated here, when you can go elsewhere?

Been in a few times to pay cheques into bank accounts now that the near by branches have all been cloesd. They never have any of the required envelopes and some staff seem to have no idea where they come from. Even involving Post Office customer services but it seems to have made no difference. Better to save some time and use one of the other local post offices.

Reviews about «Post Office»
Only giving this 1 star because the functionality won’t let me give 0. Absolute nightmare. Change your opening hours on your site if they don’t reflect reality. If they reflect a ‘limited service’ you need to state what these services are update the timings to reflect what is available and when. Three times I have been advised what times I can come and pick up my parcel and 3 times I have arrived and been told it is closed. OH and FYI training your staff to spew out a generic spiel about restricted services is not improving customer services - it’s using a sticking plaster to fix a much broader problem. Sort it out!

Reviews about «Newington Post Office»
Almost always a bad experience in this store, staff are rude and unhelpful, not at all customer-service friendly. I had a redelivery sent to this store, and although I had a photographic ID and the email from RoyalMail, as well as a copy of proof of address, they sent me home to get them an actual proof and not a copy of it. When I got back into the store with everything, they took the bank statement (proof of address) in another room with my photographic ID, something that made me feel really uncomfortable, since this is sensitive personal information.
Very unhappy with management and service of the store.
2019.12.10 18:29
AVOID THIS POST OFFICE AT ALL COSTS. I HAVE NEVER COME ACROSS SUCH RUDE, UNHELPFUL STAFF IN MY LIFE. IM SURE THEY SET OUT EACH DAY TO MAKE AS MANY CUSTOMERS ANGRY AS THEY POSSIBLY CAN. THEY CHANGE THEIR "POLICY" SEVERAL TIMES WHILST DEALING WITH YOU, AND OFTEN CONTRADICT THEMSELVES. I WOULD RATHER WALK 5 MILES TO ANOTHER POST OFFICE THAN SET FOOT IN THIS JOKE OF A PLACE THAT IS RUN BY CLOWNS!
** WOULD HAVE GIVEN ZERO STARS IF I HAD THE OPTION **
2019.09.17 12:32
Went into the Newington post office branch just to post one letter and ended up being verbally abused by the manager Shamim. His behaviour was totally unbefitting a manager of a Post Office branch and I feel so sorry for his workers who thankfully were very helpful. I cannot believe that this level of abuse is from a manager and it is worrying that people such as him have managed to be in a position above others in the branch who must suffer immensely because of his temperament. I never thought I would have a manager of a Post office demanding which bank card I must use to make a purchase. Utterly unacceptable.
2019.07.12 16:03
Had a troublesome delivery by Royal Mail (which obviously isn't the post office's fault), but it meant that I had to rely on help from the post office to receive my parcel.
Unfortunately they were rather unhelpful, immune to charm, and were reluctant to tell me what I had to do to receive my parcel. They seemed bothered and annoyed that I didn't know their policies.
Only reason I'm not giving them only 1 star is that I received my parcel in the end.

Ryan & Shirley are always polite, helpful and friendly. I always find them going out of their way to help.

Kirsty who is frequently in charge of this bank misinformed my partner on Tuesday 21st August that we should go into the bank today so that either she or another bank member would start processing a dispute against the House of Frasers if they had still failed to refund the amount of £88.95 they owed me for an online order they had cancelled due to the new owner Mike Ashley having a dispute with his warehouse staff.
When my partner and I went in to the bank today, as advised by Kirsty on Tuesday, she renaged on her initial promist to initiate a debit card dispute against House of Frasers on my behalf even although they had failed to refund me the amount of £88.95 by the 18th August as stated in an email they had sent me 8 days ago.
Kirsty stated that the reason she could not initiate a debit card dispute against House of Frasers on my behalf was the shops had closed down due to the company going bust, and that it was therefore protocol that the Bank of Scotland had to have heard from such companies about refunding customers, before they took any action on their customers behalf.
Contrary to what Kirsty told myself and my partner today, House of Fraser shops have not closed down, and the company has NOT gone bust, and infact had already been bought over by the new owner Mike Ashley on 10th August prior to me placing my online order on 11th August. Having cancelled my order on 16th August due to a dispute with his warehouse staff, the new owner has failed to reimburse myself and thousands of other customers for the online orders his company has cancelled.
Again, contrary to what Kirsty misinformed myself and my partner in the bank today, when I phoned the Bank of Scotland debit card dispute team directly, they informed me that they could initiate a debit card dispute against House of Fraser immediately for the amount they owed me, and took the requisite details from me to enable them to do this today.
Why is someone as incompetent as Kirsty left in charge of this branch of the Bank of Scotland when she gives customers incorrect advice only to then renage on what she has says, makes totally inaccurate assumptions ie that House of Fraser shops have closed down due to the company having gone bust (when none of this is true), and that the bank can`t initiate a debit card dispute against House of Frasers until they`ve heard from them about processing refunds, when the latter was totally incorrect as confirmed by the debit card dispute team who work for the Bank of Scotland?
I have written a formal complaint about the total incompetence of Kirsty, particularly since it is most concerning that someone as inept is left in charge of this branch. I will update this review once I have had a response from the complaints team as to what action they intend to take with a view to ensuring customers who frequent this Branch get an adequate standard of service as opposed to the appalling service both my partner and I were given by Kirsty.

Terrible service! They keep asking for papers to open an account and when I asked at another bank of scotland branch they told me I don't need these and it's ok to have the paper I had in first place. At this branch they don't know how to do their job. It's unbelievable

Wasted 1 hour trying to explain my problem with app registration.
Even the manager didnt know what she s supposed to be doing in order to rectify the issue. As a Business customer, all ive had brom Bank of Scotland is time wasting. DO YOUR BUSINESS BANKING ELSEWHERE. Thats what i will be doing very soon. Better banks out there.

Rude, Rude, Rude and then some. This is the worst branch of any bank I've had the displeasure of using. You know you're off to a bad start when you're greeted with "Alright pal" inside the door. Then a stone faced cashier interrogated me like an SS officer over not having a debit card and despite having all appropriate identification she would only allow me to withdraw £50 and simply could not understand why I was irritated by this! Avoid this branch like the plague on banking culture it is.

Not a very busy branch. Been in a couple of times and staff are very helpful and were able to resolve my inquiries
2019.03.02 22:43
If I could give zero stars then I would!! The staff in here go out there way to make things awkward. If you dont have card, but do have passport and id etc they will only give you access to £50 from your own account - and listening to the dribble is soul destroying.

girl behind the counter trying to up sell one of their products, i politely declined and get snapped straight back at me.....every time I see her behind the counter I'd rather spend 30 minutes trying to use their annoying automated cash deposit machine which keeps chucking out my notes and get a Parking Ticket than go to her behind the desk...

Went to transfer some money for my rent which I could not do online and the cashier made comments about how I should be using my money. Said I would be better putting it towards a mortgage! Yes, I know renting is not a good investment but sadly that is the only option for many ordinary people in the country. Unbelievably patronising, wholly unprofessional and just a rather insensitive way of treating clients trying to get a simple transaction done swiftly

Poorly trained and unhelpful staff . They were not able to help me pay to hmrc correctly so I will probably pay the penalty. Some of them think they are doing a favour and look the clients down. Don't go there.

Most of the staffs are very attentive in this branch, however I do find the cashiers(downstairs) are bit lazy and not very helpful. I had a most ridiculous conversation in terms of withdrawing my money. Now I just go straight to business cashiers who are totally opposite and very helpful.

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.

What types of storage devices can a data recovery service in Edinburgh successfully retrieve data from? Can they handle external hard drives, USB drives, SD cards, and other similar devices?
A data recovery service in Edinburgh should be able to successfully retrieve data from a wide range of storage devices, including but not limited to:
- Internal hard drives: This includes desktop and laptop hard drives.
- External hard drives: These are portable hard drives that connect to computers via USB, Thunderbolt, or other interfaces.
- USB drives: Also known as flash drives, thumb drives, or pen drives.
- SD cards: Secure Digital (SD) cards are commonly used in digital cameras, smartphones, and other portable devices.
- Solid State Drives (SSDs): These are storage devices that use flash memory to store data and are commonly found in laptops, desktops, and some external drives.
- RAID arrays: Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) systems are used to combine multiple hard drives for increased performance or data redundancy.
- Network Attached Storage (NAS): These devices are connected to a network and provide centralized storage for multiple users or devices.
- Tape drives: Although less common nowadays, some organizations still use magnetic tape drives for long-term data storage.
- Optical media: This includes CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray discs.
It's important to note that the specific capabilities of a data recovery service may vary, so it's recommended to inquire about the types of devices they can handle before proceeding with the recovery process.
-
Are there any limitations or restrictions when it comes to the size or capacity of the storage devices that a data recovery service in Edinburgh can recover data from?
The limitations or restrictions on the size or capacity of storage devices that a data recovery service in Edinburgh can recover data from may vary depending on the specific service provider. However, most professional data recovery services are equipped to handle a wide range of storage devices, including hard drives, solid-state drives (SSDs), USB drives, memory cards, and RAID arrays.
In terms of size, data recovery services typically have the capability to recover data from storage devices of various capacities, ranging from a few gigabytes to multiple terabytes. Some advanced data recovery labs may even be able to handle larger storage devices, such as enterprise-level storage systems or network-attached storage (NAS) devices.
It's worth noting that the complexity and time required for data recovery can increase with larger storage devices, as the process involves scanning and analyzing the entire storage media. Additionally, the success of data recovery depends on the condition of the storage device and the extent of damage or data corruption.
To determine the specific limitations or restrictions of a data recovery service in Edinburgh, it is advisable to contact the service provider directly and inquire about their capabilities and supported storage devices.

How does the data recovery process work for different storage devices like external hard drives, USB drives, or SD cards? Can you provide an overview of the steps involved in retrieving data from these devices?
The data recovery process for different storage devices follows a similar set of steps, although there may be slight variations depending on the specific device and the severity of data loss. Here is an overview of the typical steps involved in retrieving data from external hard drives, USB drives, or SD cards:
- Evaluation: The first step is to assess the extent of data loss and determine if data recovery is possible. This involves examining the storage device and identifying any physical or logical damage. Data recovery specialists use specialized tools and software to evaluate the device.
- Repair or Replacement: If there is any physical damage to the storage device, it may need to be repaired or parts may need to be replaced. This step is crucial for devices like external hard drives where physical components can fail. However, for USB drives or SD cards, which are more compact and have fewer repairable components, this step is usually skipped.
- Cloning: To avoid further damage to the original storage device, a clone or image of the device is created. This involves making a bit-by-bit copy of the entire storage device onto another medium. The clone is used for the actual data recovery process, ensuring that any accidental damage during recovery attempts does not affect the original data.
- Data Extraction: Once the clone is created, data recovery software or specialized tools are used to extract the lost or deleted data from the clone. This process involves scanning the clone for any recoverable files and folders. The software searches for file signatures, metadata, or other patterns to identify and retrieve the data.
- Data Reconstruction: After the data is extracted, it may need to be reconstructed if it is fragmented or damaged. This step involves piecing together the recovered fragments to recreate the original files. This can be a complex process, especially if the data is heavily fragmented or corrupted.
- Verification: Once the data is reconstructed, it is important to verify the integrity and accuracy of the recovered files. Data recovery specialists typically compare the recovered data with any available backups or reference files to ensure that the recovered files are complete and usable.
- Data Transfer: Finally, the recovered data is transferred to a new storage device or returned to the original device, depending on the situation. It is crucial to store the recovered data on a different medium to avoid overwriting or further loss of data.
It's important to note that data recovery can be a complex and delicate process, and it is recommended to seek professional assistance from data recovery specialists or companies who have the expertise and tools to handle different storage devices effectively.
