Reviews about «Solid Rock IT UK»
We use Solid rock IT UK to install our network. i used many IT support companies in the past, and trust me this team is the best. 1) they didn't complain about our software or hardware outfit and we didn't have to change anything for newer resources, they make it work for us. 2) they know how to ask the right questions to help us setup our systems to be efficient and problem free. 3) Sage IT support spend a lot time trying to fix their own accounting software program without any progress or positive results and were offering to sell us upgrade monthly subscription packages. Solidrockit fix those same issues without any problem. 4) they are very effective and quick to respond to our technical concerns and this makes us very happy. Highly recommended IT Support company for businesses who need professional technical and strategic support.
As a resume this team is friendly , and very professional pleasant to work with and we will use their services again.

HOLD UP ! Don't freak out when your computer starts to freak out.
Just get on-the-line (you can do this online !) to Mark. He will put the chill-pill into your mainframe and get systems firing on all cylinders so you can kick back and let the machines do the work for you.
All from the comfort of your own home you say ? This is the future we are living in, and Mark is right there - about a couple of technological leaps ahead of us bringing back all the answers and wizardry to make your computer smile.
Can't recommend him and SOLID ROCK IT enough. It's already there in the name isn't it ? 6 STARS ! ! ! ! ! ! Cosmic Praise.

From the minute I emailed him Mark was prompt, helpful and a lovely personality. Managed to solve a wifi connection problem my house has had for two years and went above and beyond to do so. An incredibly happy go lucky go who also took the time to explain everything he was doing, which was incredibly helpful. I could not be happier with Mark's service, and will certainly use solid rock again should the occasion call upon it! Thank you so much!
2019.09.03 19:30
Thank you very much for the excellent IT Support, you are always available to help. Excellent IT services from a London based company that knows what they are doing. Customer service is the best for any one looking for professional IT help... highly recommended!
2019.09.19 16:13
The team at solid rock were truly professional and understood all our IT requirements. This proved extremely helpful since other issues regarding the desktop PC, tablets and network distribution required attention . They were able to quickly identify the main causes of our problems. And even suggested how we could improve our systems. We will definitely use this company again

I genuinely never leave reviews usually but I felt obligated to because of how good we computing has been saving my life my laptop twice. Both times before big business trips and under pressure/ no time. They have extremely flexible, honest and efficient. Added bonus is the kind customer service. I have appreciated their generosity and feel lucky to have found them. Recommended highly.

Reviews about «Grays Inn Post Office»
The queues can be quite long but tend to move rapidly. The service is often excellent. I went today for some Christmas stamps. The assistant did not have any because they had not yet received them, but he took the trouble to check if some had arrived in the stockroom. This really was very helpful and I hadn’t expected such stellar service. Many thanks.
2019.11.04 13:53
This post office queue moves unusually fast!
2019.12.15 10:03
Superb service. Never long waits and super friendly, helpful staff
2019.08.19 15:34
Service is Terrible here. No one knows the proper procedure for BRP collection. One day one staff say something, which next day another staff doesn't agree.
2019.11.02 19:10
The customer service here was the best I’ve ever had at a post office; staff were really knowledgeable, charming and helpful. I left with s big smile on my face.
The post office is in the basement of a Ryman’s so you can buy any materials you are missing very easily.

Pro tip - do not go at lunchtime as it is a mess of queues and quasi-self checkout machines.
Outside of lunch it's quick with very helpful staff.
2019.07.25 16:20
Helpful staff and quick service!
2020.01.07 08:16
Best Post Office I've found in the city. Staff are competent, helpful and everything well handled. Worth making the effort to chose this one over some of the others in the area
2019.03.21 11:09
This white woman that works there does not have good customer service skills and was with this rude pretentious attitude. I don't work in the post office to know everything, that is not my job to know certain post office stuff. Simple explanation becomes too difficult. The experience made me feel very uncomfortable. Everyone has a bad day in life but there is a boundary that you shouldn't cross. Your customers are not nursery children (children also deserve to be treated respectfully).
2019.06.05 09:45
Fantastic service, quick and easy! Miles better than other post offices in the city.

Reviews about «Houndsditch Post Office»
I use this post office every time because it is located near where I work. The service is prompt and very professional. As soon as i entered, i was directed to the self service machines and the staff also helped me navigate through it quickly because they sensed I was in hurry. It was very smooth process. Also when I visited earlier, the post office manager was very co-operative and cleared any doubts I had patiently. I am impressed. Thanks.
2019.11.26 14:04
I was really surprised to see such a low rating! This post office is the best I’ve been to - a lot of space, seats, super friendly staff and I never had to wait longer than 5 min to send something. There are a least 2 post offices closer to my home than this one but I try to avoid going there as I would spend more time in queues.
2019.09.20 14:02
Excellent friendly service. The two members of staff who helped me (I didn’t get their names, unfortunately) were highly efficient, friendly, and helpful. Thank you!

Reviews about «Blackfriars Post Office»
Why is the post office so grim? No technology, massive queues, shop front makes it look shut. Another shining example of privatisation....
2019.12.16 14:40
Really good experience here. Big queue but very efficiemeff dealt with, as I only had to wait a minute. Helped me out with a free bit of tape when one of my parcels split. Very nice people and highly recommended
2018.05.10 11:50
This is the WORST post office I have ever been to in my life. If I could give it zero stars I would. The staff are unbelievably rude and the entire experience was unpleasant to say the least. I wanted to find out if I could use the self service machines to post, so I decided to ask a staff member, but before I could even finish my sentence they cut me off, told me to stand in the line and abruptly walked away. I stood in the long line and when I eventually got to the front I found out I in fact couldn't post using the machines. I went to the area which i could post and was faced with another staff member that was very unhelpful, ignorant and spent the entire time talking to her colleague instead of addressing me, the actual customer. Turns out they gave me the wrong postage type (probably because they're more interested in finding out their colleagues social itinerary than actually doing their job) for what I needed, which was more than triple the amount I should have paid. Complete and utter waste of time. You're better off going somewhere else - anywhere else!
2018.07.03 14:51
Sadly this post office has recently been privatised so as a consequence the self service machines are never going to be working again. No extra staff on counter so not surprisingly long queue times. AVOID if possible and go somewhere else as will be quicker. Such a shame all the lovely, friendly staff like Jackie and Sue are no longer here either.
2018.05.09 14:47
Busy, but super nice staff, 3pm in the week is the quietest time - usually no queue.

Reviews about «Post Office»
There's a lot of bad reviews of this place, but in three years of working nearby and using it, I've never had a problem. Often it's busy, but the staff are efficient and the queues go quickly. Staff have always been pleasant and polite, offering a range of postal options. There's a small shop attached to the post office where you can buy envelopes, cards, wrapping paper and even some food. Provides everything you could want from a post office really.
2019.11.28 15:36
You can't even get in the door because of the poorly managed queuing system and people are grumpy here. I will never get the hour back I spent trying to post something here. I should have known better judging by the reviews that the Farringdon Post Office would be a poor choice.
2019.12.16 12:57
A convenient post office, however staff are downright rude and just don't listen to requests. A please and/or thank you costs nothing, yet you'll virtually never get one here. I'm also not sure why the barriers are placed to make life as hard as possible for customers. One doesn't even feel like a customer here, more of an annoyance to the staff.
2019.10.10 14:41
I should have known better than to go here after glancing at the reviews but I had no choice. I had some cash I needed to pay into my account. I bank with Nationwide and have often used the Post Office as they seem to be closing all of their Building Society branches. Went to cashier #4 and was served by an older Asian lady who was miserable, rude. For some reason Nationwide had a defect on the system. Refused me service after trying twice and tossed, no exaggeration, my bank card across the counter towards me. I have a First Direct account that she could have paid the money in to bus refused to even try. Disgusting behaviour.

Reviews about «Moorgate Post Office»
Posted a few items here, staff are friendly and patient in my experience. It is extremely busy. I have had success getting through the queues relatively quickly and posting important parcels. It would benefit from some refurbishment and more sign posting for queues for its various services. You can also get Asian take away food here.
2019.12.16 18:01
Reading the 1 star reviews I was apprehensive to visit but it turned out to be best experience ever. I didn't have to wait at all to visit one of the self service kiosk and post my letter. It was around 12.30 which I thought will be busy time due to lunch hour.
2019.11.08 12:50
Had problem with postage on letter where I went to Moorgate Post Office for help. A staff member Drew (claimed to be Assist Manager) insisted that I had the incorrect postage. I then ask him if he can check on the system, which he refused to check. I said that's the price on Royal Mail website, he then reply saying the price shown on the Royal Mail website is an "online price", they don't do it. He then direct me to refer to the brochures, which again confirmed that I've had the correct postage. Drew quite certain that they don't do Economy Post to oversea, the Royal Mail brochures is wrong, so is their website, they are not Royal Mail and cannot help. When I ask for the his Managers name, he then said its Private Information and refused provide. So the Moorgate Post Office cannot help to check prices, and they cannot help with postage? they don't follow postage price rule from Royal Mail. Who are they? Very very disappointed with their service.
2019.11.29 12:51
Had to walk past almost 30 people just to post a card to someone, constantly having to explain I wasn't jumping the que as my envelope already had a stamp on it. Why not have post boxes outside? Staff can be quite rude and the Indian takeaway on the right of the shop leaves a lot to be desired.
2019.09.30 11:28
Awful experience. They have one person behind the counter and one person overseeing the self-service, with over 20 customers waiting in line.
Incompetently slow. Avoid at all costs.

Reviews about «Bank of England Museum»
Fun museum. Good for small and grown-up kids. They've done a great job in teaching concepts such as quantitative easing to small kids (visit if you want to know how they manage to do just that). Would be slightly better if they were a bit more self critical about central bank policy.
2020.03.05 19:13
Great museum for kids and grown-ups. We've been there twice and learn loads of things I'd never have known about the bank and money, You also get the chance to hold a real solid gold bar in your hand worth a cool £500,000. Worth a visit - and best of all, it's free (not the gold bar)!
2020.01.12 20:39
Very interesting museum with interactive displays explaining what the role of the Bank is. Plenty of history, and the opportunity to touch and lift up a real 13kg gold bar!! Nice little shop and very high quality museum. Spend about an hour there.
2020.03.10 17:01
An interesting museum that leads through the history of money and architectural London – and you do not have to pay any admission fee!
Although two schools spent their time in the museum there was plenty of room and many many displays to discover. Highlight was of course the gold bar – really everyone tried to lift it.
2020.02.13 12:51
UK has very long history in economy and banking. By visiting the bank of England museum, you will be learning the fundamental of banking system and economy, e.g. inflation. There are pictures, even computer games help you with a better understanding. It's recommended to visit.

Avoid this 'bank'. Their contact phone numbers are not working (both the customer services and complaint phone numbers disconnect without ringing) and they send automated payment confirmation emails if you contact them via their customer services email address instead.
I have never known a bank who would ever do this so it is safe to say this is a scam.

I cannot recommend this bank. Their brand FirstSave Euro offers USD fixed deposits with attractive interest rates. However, they convert with the wrong exchange rate, always to the disadvantage of the customer, which often consumes most of the interest. In the last account the deviation to the correct rate was more than 3%!

This place is huge, there are SO MANY ATM's and SO MANY booths, and SO MANY STAFF!
It's really quite amazing that it takes so long for anything to happen here.
When you look around inside all the staff are standing in pairs chatting. I wandered round and round inside until eventually stopping in the middle of a huge circle painted on the floor. Then looking completely lost almost 2 minutes after entering this place. Someone asked if I was ok. I need a new pin and when I asked for one I was told to sit down and the man would 'definitely get a colleague to help me', I mean I hope so! Other wise I would be sitting down for a very long time.
So, 15 minutes on I am writing my review...
The chairs in here are really comfy, I can recommend the sofa. I will check out what looks like a help your self coffee machine and maybe post another review. But as far as service goes. 20 minutes of my life wasted and still waiting for some one who is DEFINITELY going to help me...

Awful experience. Opened up a 2 year fixed rate bond -at an agreed interest rate of 1.85%. It took them so long to sort out the funds, no idea why, then to be sent an e-mail saying 'the funds have been received' and the interest rate had dropped to 1.7% because it took them 3 days to complete their administration.

I rang several times ,last week. The phone rings and then switch to answering machine. I left several message and left my mobile number, them to come back. No one have bother to come back. I am disappointed that my late father worked with this branch and it never happened when he was working with this branch. I am simply requesting bank statement for last six months.

Visited this SBI UK branch during my recent London visit. Staff is very helpful and tourist friendly. Helped me get change of my 50 GBP currency notes.. even though I don't have account here, the staff helped me with lot of information and getting lower denomination currency notes. Especially thankful to Mr. Kulkarni who works in this branch. Located in Central London near Bank Station just opposite to Guildhall Art Gallery.

Worst Internet Banking Experience. Transaction Password locked twice. Can not be reset immediately. 24 hours wait. Even after doing it write on the first time, while customer service on the phone , and new transaction password set, BLOCKED new transaction password again. Having to wait yet another DAY ?
2020.02.13 23:37
Absolutely RUBBISH in everything what they do from Sales, Customer service, Credit handling and procedural issues... very medieval age attitude towards customer service, no care in the world... Expensive interest on mortgage products and NO rational reason whatsoever to do business with SBIUK. Even their complaints handling is SHAMEFUL.
HORRIBLE experience.... you don't want to go through this!!
2019.11.14 17:59
Very inefficient. Their high priority tickets take more than a week to resolve. Don't know how they set the priorities to the tickets. If you do not call up the second time and ask them to escalate, the ticket wouldn't have been looked upon. Horrible, the high street banks in this case pays off compensation to reach customer satisfaction and max it takes 2 days to resolve such issues.
Customer Service may assist the customers but customer service itself does not have a lot of accesses to support the concerned party. Tech support has very limited technical knowledge. Dissappointed.

First ever 1 star review for anything! Called ahead on a Saturday to find out opening hours, and was told the branch is open until 2pm. Get there at 1.50pm - front doors are locked, blinds at the counters are down, and not a single soul to be seen inside. Clearly they'd been shut for a while. It appears opening times don't really stand for anything.
2016.07.05 01:29
I have been in there few time and I can say from experience the service has been absolutely lousy. The system and the settings they had seem pretty outdated . They weren't as organised like other money transfer or so called banks. They represent Bangladesh and it doesn't meet any standard. You go to banks from other nationalities and countries they seem more presentable and organised with new system and using modern technology to keep records well. Lot of the staff look scruffy and
not presentable enough to face the general public. They need a complete transformation for better business and more customers.

Don't bother with this bank. Never answer a phone . Take all sorts of charges out of your account. You can't call them. You can't email them. PLEASE AVOID THE BUNCH OF ---------S
2019.04.03 09:31
I cannot recommend this bank. I have been a client for ten years, I was correctly classified as a non-resident however the charges levied were outrageous. To avoid the fees most of my Spanish payments I originated in the UK thus skipping past La Caixa fees. Interestingly residents are treated more favourable with very modest fees. This month I have closed my account and found a Spanish bank that charges a modest E30 fee per 1/4 and a bi-annual tax registration fee of E35.
2018.02.21 11:46
I was unable to find this bank. There appeared to be hoardings and building work, where the bank should be. No-one knew where it was. Is there a Caixa bank in London. If so, where is it?
I have tried phoning nos. None work. I tried sending an email. It did not work. It would not accept my NIE No, and would not send without it. I tried phoning bank in Mao, Menorca in working hours. Automatic reply which hung up. I’ve been locked out of my account for years.
Could it get any worse?

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.

How do data recovery services in London (City of) typically handle physically damaged storage devices, such as scratched or broken hard drives?
Data recovery services in London typically follow a standardized process to handle physically damaged storage devices, such as scratched or broken hard drives. Here is a general outline of the steps involved:
- Evaluation: The damaged storage device is thoroughly inspected to assess the extent of physical damage. This evaluation helps in determining the appropriate recovery techniques and estimating the chances of successful data retrieval.
- Cleanroom Environment: If the hard drive requires repair or internal component replacement, data recovery services use specialized cleanrooms. These cleanrooms maintain a controlled environment with low levels of airborne particles to prevent further damage to the drive during the repair process.
- Repair and Replacement: Skilled technicians carefully repair or replace damaged components of the hard drive, such as read/write heads, motor, or circuit board. They may use specialized tools and techniques to recover data from scratched platters or damaged components.
- Imaging: Once the hard drive is repaired, the technicians create a sector-by-sector copy, known as an image, of the entire drive. This ensures that the original data remains unaffected during the recovery process.
- Data Extraction: Using advanced software and tools, the data recovery specialists work on the created image to extract the data. They employ various techniques like file carving, data reconstruction, or manual extraction to retrieve the lost or damaged files.
- Data Integrity Check: After extracting the data, the recovery service performs integrity checks to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the recovered files. This helps identify any corrupted or partially recovered data.
- Data Transfer: Once the data integrity is verified, the recovered files are transferred to a secure storage medium, such as an external hard drive, USB drive, or cloud storage. The recovered data is then returned to the client or securely stored until it can be delivered.
It's important to note that the specific methods and techniques used may vary depending on the severity of the damage and the expertise of the data recovery service.

Are there any limitations to the types of physically damaged storage devices that data recovery services in London (City of) can repair and recover data from?
Data recovery services in London (City of) are typically equipped to handle a wide range of physically damaged storage devices. However, there may be some limitations depending on the severity of the damage or the type of storage device. Here are some general limitations to consider:
- Severely physically damaged devices: In cases where the storage device is severely physically damaged, such as being crushed or burnt, the chances of successful data recovery may be significantly reduced. Extensive physical damage may make it impossible to retrieve any data.
- Water or fire damage: While data recovery services can often recover data from storage devices that have been damaged by water or fire, there is no guarantee of success. The extent of the damage and the condition of the storage device will determine the likelihood of data recovery.
- Solid-state drives (SSDs): SSDs can be more challenging to recover data from compared to traditional hard disk drives (HDDs). The complex architecture of SSDs and the way data is stored on them can make the recovery process more difficult. However, many data recovery services have specialized tools and techniques to handle SSD recoveries.
- Encryption and password-protected devices: If the storage device is encrypted or password-protected, data recovery may be more complex. The encryption or password protection can prevent access to the data without the necessary credentials or encryption keys.
- Outdated or obsolete storage devices: Some data recovery services may not have the necessary equipment or expertise to recover data from outdated or obsolete storage devices. It is important to check with the service provider beforehand if you have an older storage device.
It is recommended to consult with a data recovery service in London (City of) to assess the specific limitations and capabilities they have regarding the type of physically damaged storage device you need assistance with.

What are the common techniques or methods employed by data recovery services in London (City of) to recover data from physically damaged storage devices like scratched or broken hard drives?
There are several common techniques and methods employed by data recovery services in London (City of) to recover data from physically damaged storage devices like scratched or broken hard drives. These techniques include:
- Cleanroom Environment: Data recovery services often have specialized cleanrooms where they can open the damaged hard drives in a controlled environment. This helps to prevent further damage and contamination during the recovery process.
- Head and Platter Swap: In cases where the hard drive's read/write heads are damaged or misaligned, data recovery experts may perform a head and platter swap. This involves replacing the damaged components with working ones from a compatible hard drive.
- Platter Transplant: If the platters themselves are scratched or damaged, data recovery specialists may attempt a platter transplant. This involves transferring the platters to a healthy hard drive mechanism to retrieve the data.
- Firmware Repair: Sometimes, the firmware on the hard drive can become corrupted, leading to data loss. Data recovery services may attempt to repair or reprogram the firmware to regain access to the data.
- Data Carving: If the file system is damaged or inaccessible, data recovery experts can use data carving techniques to recover individual files by searching for specific file signatures or patterns within the raw data.
- NAND Chip Removal: In the case of solid-state drives (SSDs), where physical damage is often more complex, data recovery services may remove the NAND chips from the SSD and use specialized equipment to extract the data directly from the chips.
- Forensic Imaging: In some cases, when the damaged storage device is too fragile or risky to work with directly, data recovery services may perform a forensic image of the device. This involves creating a bit-by-bit copy of the entire storage device, which can then be analyzed and data recovered from the image.
It is important to note that the success of data recovery from physically damaged storage devices can vary depending on the extent of the damage and the expertise of the data recovery service.
